The Kobult - A Stylized Kobold Avatar Base
- Digital0 JPY
My take on a stylized species of Kobold, now freshly remastered! It's simple to edit and certainly affordable at the low low price of free, so it should make a good beginner-friendly anthropomorphic avatar. Give the demo avatar a try! https://vrchat.com/home/avatar/avtr_9268fb8b-bd2c-49ac-887e-e7a615125c1f Questions? Issues? Feel free to reach out: Discord: JackCanty | Email: jackcanty.contact@gmail.com Despite the added value in the 4.0 remaster, I've decided to keep the avatar free. If you'd like to support my work, paying for this asset at around $20 (or more if you so choose) would be greatly appreciated! If not, no worries! Enjoy, and leave a review if you feel compelled to. Created using Blender and GIMP for use with the VRChat Creator Companion
Features Include
- UnifiedExpressions face tracking blend shapes driven by Adjerry91's FT templates. - MMD blend shapes (JPN) and a built-in MMD mode toggle. - In-depth body and eye shape customization. - Tail length customization, wagging, puppeting, and expression/mood reactivity. - Tail, ear, and body PhysBones that scale with the body sliders. - Global PhysBone collider on snout for improved interactability. (Requires VRCFury) - Body hue, mouth hue, and eye color customization. - An optional cartoon outline toggle. - Named preset toggles to demonstrate customizability and act as starting points for further experimentation.* - Randomizer toggles that cover body shape, body color, and both. - A reactive expression system with boop/headpat interactions, a mood slider, special manual expressions, and the ability to swap gesture hands, utilize combo-style inputs, and disable expressions entirely. - Automatic overlay keyboard detection (ex. XSOverlay, OVR Toolkit) and expression shutoff for typing. - A variety of QOL toggles that include minimum brightness*, station height, floor PhysBone collision, and more. - Custom icons for all submenus and toggles. *Features reduced on Standalone VR version.
Miscellaneous Features
- Active forearm twist bones for better flexing. - A custom locomotion layer that inversely scales movement animation speed with player height and improves repeated jumping behavior. - Even more customization and expression blend shapes built into the mesh, including whole iris narrowing/flattening, snout length/width, ear notches, weight variations to exclude the head, belly, and both, fluff size/messiness, and more. - Integrated clipping reduction blend shapes for shrinking key joints/limbs and disabling the body spikes in specific regions for improved out-of-the-box cosmetic compatibility.
