Notes

Ready Player Me character customization happens only on their website as stated on their blog, then the generated avatar url can be fetched to the app using AvatarLoader script

Create 3D Avatars For Unity Games With The RPM Avatar SDK

On Android and iOS however, the character customization webpage can opened inside the app using webview so it can be integrated ‘seamlessly’ without user need to leave the app/game

Custom 3D Assets

Since character customizations happens on readyplayer.me website, currently there’s no possible way to add custom 3D assets into the customization yet, except from directly submitting to their contact support.

Additionally, any submitted custom 3d assets would most likely become available to public outside our own app/game
