Combining Wearables on a Avatar

In order to maximize the appeal of a full outfit, the avatars use an internal logic that controls how different wearables coexist at the same time. This reduces the amount of clipping and intersection between wearables, and improves the overall look of your avatar.

Equipable Areas

Equipable Areas

Genies avatar has four equipable areas: head, upper body, lower body and feet. Lets take a look at what wearable asset types can be equipped per each area.

Hats, glasses, earrings and masks wearables can be equipped to the head area.

Hats, glasses and earrings can be combined together. Masks will replace any other asset in this area.

Upper Body

Shirts, hoodies and jackets can be equipped in the upper body area. You can have the following combinations: a shirt OR a shirt with the jacket (open) OR a jacket (closed) or a hoodie.

Lower Body

Pants OR shorts OR skirts can be equipped to the lower body.

None of those bottom assets can be worn together.

Feet

Shoes are the only asset type that can be equipped to the feet area.

Exception

Dresses are the only asset type that is being equipped on the upper body + lower body areas.

That means that dresses will replace any other assets in those areas like shirts/ hoodies /jackets and pants/ shorts/ skirts.

Layering System

Layering Guides

Some equipable areas allow multiple assets to be added at the same time. To ensure the most compatibility of assets, we created the Layering Guides to serve as visual aid when authoring wearables.

Read the Layering Guides page for more information.
