Adding Parachute Harness to Avatars

Unity
1

Hi everyone. We’re integrating RPM into to our VR app so players can fully customize their avatars. We need to place a parachute/harness on top of whatever clothing the player selects (without removing or replacing their outfit), and have it conform to the avatar’s body.

Is there a supported way to add a layered accessory like this (e.g., an over-garment/hard-surface item that follows the RPM armature)? I’ve added an image to help illustrate.

Hey @av1pro

We don’t have any built-in features that would allow you to add in a parachute or any other accessory. This should all be handled entirely in-engine.

Much in the same way you would add a gun or sword to the character, make use to attachment points or sockets.

Let me know how you get on!

Hi @Tom_RPM ,

Thanks for getting back to me. Yes we ended up adding it as a prefab that spawns on top of the player using points. Trying out a beta version with the users. Really enjoying RPM integration with our sim!

Thanks again!
