This is a milestone update that marks complete mastery of the character production pipeline, re-establishing the standard of clothing production for mass production of character appearances.
Update Content:
1. Reworked the appearance of the character
"Re-bone"
The meshes, materials and bones of the character body are completely replaced. Realism and recognizability have been greatly improved.
Suits are made with new processes and standards, adding dynamic parts. This establishes benchmarks and technical validation for subsequent apparel updates.
Roughly remade shirts and t-shirts. Fixed most body intersection issues.
The dynamic skeleton system has been updated to fix the effects of some objects such as hair and books. Also optimized for performance.
Changed to a more spirited standby stance.
Fixed Battlecry animations.
Note that the current accessories follow the previous model, and it is planned to gradually replace and increase. Most of the costumes are still placeholders, with dramatic colors to distinguish the characters, and then it is planned to gradually replace them with independent style models and add features such as dynamic effects. At the same time, the costume design will be more in line with the character's identity in the story to strengthen the narrative effect.

"You got the touch!"
Added sound effects to weapon swings to further enhance the solid feedback of combat.

3. Ease of use improvement
"Do you like what you see?"
Visual effects with high performance overhead are now disabled by default to improve the onboarding experience for low-end users. It can be turned on in the main menu.
