First Project with Avatars

This tutorial will introduce how the Genies Avatar SDK can be used for basic gameplay.

It will cover these topics:

• Creating a UI for users to login to their Genies accounts.
• Once logged in, spawning the user's global Avatar.
• Downloading and using the sample scenes.
• Connecting the Avatar to a character controller.
• Creating an NPC with a locally stored Avatar definition.
• Giving the NPC a custom animation to wave at the player.

📄️ Login

The first section of this tutorial is to create a login screen for the user to sign into their Genies account.

📄️ Avatar Controller

The next section is going to load a player Avatar and integrate a character controller to move it. This will use the Avatar Starter sample scene for its useful prefabs and scripts.

📄️ NPC Avatar

The next section is going to spawn an NPC Avatar using a locally-stored Avatar definition. This will use the Using Multiple Avatars sample scene to create a locally stored Avatar definition.

📄️ Custom Animation

The next section is going to add a custom animation from Mixamo so the NPC waves when the player gets near it.
