  Amazing addon, the quality of the models is incredible. I have a mac so there is a mac related bug involving the number of textures that can be loaded in EEVEE. I emailed the team and received a response and a fix within a few minutes! Incredible customer support.

  Thanks for the review, Tom! I'm glad I could help you out with the MacOS OpenGL workaround.

  Nice addon. Good Job!
  But I think it needs some updates. I will use it after several updates.

  In my case, I use UE4 and Perception Neuron Mocap. HG's skeleton system is hard to change other's. Defferent bones hierachy, names, positions. I'm not a expert, and this addon is good for Blender beginner like me. If it has a tutorial about skeleton system, I appreciate your help. At least I wish it contain T-pose in pose library.

  Cloth system is awsome. I will wait a detailed tutorial about cloth. I will be great if it can make hundreds of soldiers with same mililtary uniform.

  And my last wish is some detailed ethnicity choice. Like Malay race, Arab, Turk, etc. It will be hard work. But if it could, It will be a best addon.

  Thanks for the review and feedback! We'll look into creating a tutorial about the rig, and we'll definitely add a T-Pose in a future free update.

  A tutorial about creating clothing packs is also on the way!

  Adding more ethnicity options would definitely be interesting, we have to do some more testing to see how we could do this without causing problems with the facial deformations.

  Best looking people out there! Congratulations on a nice product! Great hair and skin shader! I would need this mainly to populate architectural scenes, so a few things are still needed - there seem to be no women's base clothes pack- dresses, skirts, etc and no women's long hair and shoes. And it would be ideal if there are more walking/sitting/talking poses.

  Also, I would like to suggest three features: "bake" into one object with no armature, shape keys, etc; similarly bake all shaders into one lightweight shader; and lastly automatic walk cycles.

  The workflow that I am thinking of is that I spend some time making a few characters. Add some randomness to clothes colours in the the shaders and then use them as single objects for particle groups to populate the scene.

  Hey Dimitar, thanks for the review and feedback! A free clothing content pack will be released in Q2, also containing female-specific clothing and footwear.

  The bake feature is definitely an interesting idea, we will take a look at that!

  Automatic walk cycles would be a bit more difficult to implement, but would indeed add a whole different level of possibilities!

  It might seem harsh to only give 3 stars but for now I feel the customization is fairly limited. Especially in terms of body customization this addon is really limited. The face modification are okay but honestly also not quiet there considering the price tag compared to the free competitors. For example you cant do asynchron changes.

  What I really do like however is the skin shader and how customizable it is. I also like the basic hair and cloth which are good starting points. A plus for this addon is also how userfriendly it is. You did a great job with the user friendly experience. From the installation to the finalization of your character it is self explanatory and you guide users along, I really appreciate that.

  Another thing I dislike is the baked in underwear. Isnt there any way to remove it? If I want to do any beachwear like a bikini for example, I wouldnt be able to do so. If these limitations are addressed in future updates I will gladly change my review but for I think its hard to give it more then 3 stars.

  Thanks for the feedback! I understand your comment about the body customization and we are looking into ways to giving more options.

  We're happy to hear you find the add-on user-friendly!

  As for the baked in underwear, we can give uncensored textures by request, just send us an email at support@humgen3d.com

  Life-changing addon. This has become my go-to addon to make fill my scene with people and then animate them. I mean, you can have like 5 different characters in less than an hour. Quality stuff... quality stuff

  This is incredible, at first I didn't believe it would be so good, but it exceeded all my expectations. It is fast, simple, and the results are stunning.

  This is, to me, the first serious in-Blender solution for automated human creation. There are a few others out there, but unlike those Human Generator really gets the anatomy and topology correct, along with rather good out-of-the-box skin details.

  I'm rating this five stars because, as an initial release, I think it's rather good at what it does; however, the good that it does isn't deep enough...yet. Here and there it's oddly superficial. More on that in a bit.

  Both as a Unity hobbyist and as someone who likes sculpting human anatomy, the models created are both solidly realistic and suited for game engines. The default base mesh of my generated character came out to 25k quads; I easily got it down to just under 8k quads using the Decimate modifier, with the mesh still looking clean.

  The texture sets can easily be used within an engine like Unity. It's 4k PBR, with the UV neatly split into 2k quadrants for the different body regions. The face gets its own 2k quadrant while the rest of the body occupies the remaining. This is all more than enough for game engines, though for those only interested in offline rendering it's merely an acceptable minimum; any lower and the pore details of the body will begin to get lost by the resolution.

  One major critique is that customization for the body seems oddly shallow. For a strong example, there's sort of only one generic breast shape, with the slider permitting only a small B-cup or a large B-cup. Apply that example to nearly every facet of the human body and you get an idea for how minuscule the options seem. There's the option to change height, as well as global sliders to make them overweight/skinny/muscular; but it's almost as if you're always using the same person's body and only changing if they've decided to be fit or to really let themselves go.

  Face customization is great. Let me make that clear. No deep complaints to be had here. I'm sure a few more sliders can be added in the future, but I'd be very happy if the options for the body were as plentiful as they are for the face.

  Clothing and hair creation is good. The clothes meshes are of high quality. They're off to a good start. It's now simply a matter of adding more varied clothes and hair content in the coming months.

  Major thing to note: the body textures have underwear baked in. Think of an unmodded Elder Scrolls game when you undress your character. Along with this the mesh is, in those particular areas, entirely smooth. Not even the male nipple has modeled form. It strikes me as a tad unserious and inconvenient. Whatever it is you're making, you're locked into a wholly SFW creation.

  All in all, I eagerly await where the developers take this asset. It can shape up to become one of Blender's most well known tools.

  Thank you for your extensive review! These thorough insights will definitely help others decide if Human Generator is the right tool for them.

  As for the body customizations, the main reason they are currently controlled by the 4 global sliders is to make sure the clothing system was fully working before adding more complexity. We are still looking into the best way to make body deformations work with the outfit system. Currently, every body-deformation slider requires its own shapekey on the clothing objects.

  If you send us an email at support@humgen3d.com we can discuss the SFW nature of the textures.

  Hi! This is an awesome add-on! I rated it five star but I am sure you guys can enhance it including a native american ethnicity. I am sure you will consider adding it in the future. Anyway it is always possible to fine tune your character adding a new shape key and modelling the features desired. Congratulations kids, this is a great piece of work!

  We are definitely looking at adding more options in the future, perhaps also in the form of more ethnicity presets. Thanks for reviewing!
