Create a Shirt

This tutorial will demonstrate how to use the Genies Art Forge SDK to create a shirt model with a text prompt.

Install the SDK​

Follow the Getting Started tutorial to install the Genies Art Forge SDK and authenticate the backend.

Open the Genies Art Forge Window​

Once installed, you can open the Genies Art Forge window by selecting from the top dropdown menu Tools > Genies > Art Forge Hub.

Open GAF

tip

You can also open the Genies Art Forge window with the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + G.

Generate a Model Preview​

Open the Model Generator Tab​

Once the Genies Art Forge window is open, make sure the Model Generator tab is selected in the left-side menu.

GAF Window

Add the Name and Description​

Add text for the Description and Asset Name input fields.

Add Prompt

tip

The Description text will be used to generate the model so make sure it is descriptive. The Asset Name text needs to be unique for your generated models and will be displayed in the user's inventory if using it with the Genies Avatar SDK.

Choose the Asset Type​

Select Wearables for the Asset Category and Shirt for the Wearable Type.

Asset Type

caution

The Wearable Type needs to be correctly selected for the model to be generated correctly and for the model to be auto-rigged to the Genies Avatar correctly.

Generate the Model​

There are optional settings for adding an image prompt or changing the quality settings, but they are not necessary for generating a model. Click the Generate Model button.

Generate Model

tip

Changing the Quality Settings is not recommended unless you need to for a specific reason.

Approve the Preview​

Once the model preview is generated, a popup window will appear displaying four different versions of the model. Find the desired version and then click the Approve button.

Approve Preview

tip

If none of the preview versions are adequate, try using the Retry button to generate new versions. If further versions are required, click the Cancel Job button and add a more descriptive text prompt and utilize image prompts.

Preview the Generated Model​

Open the Model Folder​

Once approved, it will take some time for the model to be generated. Once generated, click the Open Folder button on the right of the Genies Art Forge window.

Open Folder

Inspect the Model​

The generated models are stored by default in the Assets > Genies > ArtForge folder. There are many assets generated such as materials, textures, and a prefab. Select the prefab asset to view the generated model in the Unity editor.

Inspect Model

Submit the Model to Inventory​

Click the Submit Button​

Open the Genies Art Forge window. Click the Submit to Inventory button.

Submit Inventory

Equip the Asset​

Once the submission is complete, open a Unity project that uses the Genies Avatar SDK. The generated shirt should now appear in the inventory for the Avatar to equip.
