N5: Pirates  

Character overview:

Pirates, also known as buccaneers, are captivating figures in folklore and literature. They are often depicted with a strong appearance, wearing distinctive outfits like cloaks, wide-brimmed hats, and sometimes bearing scars or tattoos on their bodies. Pirates live aboard large ships, typically sailing vessels, and roam the oceans in search of treasure. They are famous for their spirit of freedom and adventure but often face the law and fierce battles with other sailors. The image of pirates is intertwined with stories of friendship, betrayal, and the quest for fame and riches.

• How to using Unity Face Capture on N5 Characters
• The characters in the package utilize the Dawnshader_SG shaders created with Shader Graph in Unity. The package is set up in HDRP mode, if you wish to use them in URP or Built-in, you can switch the SRPs without changing the shaders, although you may need to readjust lighting and environment settings. Additionally, you may need to fine-tune the skin materials or other materials for optimal results. You may also need to install Shader Graph in Unity to modify the shader and follow the steps below: Window -> Package Manager/ Shader Graph
• To avoid get error log "inputValue" so please following: Window -> Package Manager. At the top left corner of that window you should change: Packages: In Project >>> Packages: Unity Registry. Search for Input System and install. Restart project >> Done
• How to create more Prefabs by yourself
• You should open Overview scene to find out features of character package
• You can find Face Morphs/Blendshapes on Head Morphs in this package.

• All character body parts are modular so you can mix with my other N5 characters same gender but make sure you have scripts to mix characters, this package not included mixing character scripts.For best result with physic you should use Dynamic Bone for chain. This character has over 85 Blendshapes/Morphs for Unity Face Capture and some Basic Expressions, 02 hairstyle, 03 elve ear blenshapes can use for both male and female characters.
