Avatars Initial Release

How to use

1. In the sidebar tray, locate the 'BANTER' tab.
2. Assign the local armature to the slot, or generate a new one.
3. Assign your local avatar's meshes to the local avatar section by selecting the objects and clicking 'Use Selected Objects'
4. Assign the head mesh of your local avatar. We will turn this off in Banter so you can see properly!
5. Assign or generate LODs of your avatar. Shapekeys are only allowed on LOD0.
6. Press 'Run Validation' and fix any errors. If possible, a quick fix button will generate a new LOD per the requirements.
7. Link with your SideQuest account to export and upload your new avatar.
