Creating your own Virtual Human (Smartbody)

Creating your own Virtual Human has different meanings to different groups.  Some people want to use the existing characters that we supply, but only change certain features like giving them a different voice, or a different colored shirt.  Others groups want to use a different character, but the character was created using a standard character package that we already support (Mixamo, etc).  Others want to use a completely different character with a unique skeleton, etc.   These instructions will attempt to explain the different features and how to customize based on your needs.

Creating your own Virtual Human (Mecanim)

A new scene entitled "mecanim" has been added to the vhAssets package which displays 2 of the Brad character, one driven by the Smartbody animation system and the other by Unity's Mecanim animation system.  This scene is currently in development but can be used as a guide for how to setup a mecanim character. For information on Mecanim, please visit Unity's documentation http://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/AnimationOverview.html
