As part of Soft Body series of assets, this asset is also physically dynamic and can be simulated or used as a character or NPC. XenoCell can mount other characters and control them (parasitizing). Soft body assets also have real time dynamics to mimic liquid, jelly-like overall look.



Asset Features:

Fully physical 2 skeletal meshes with Shared skeleton and 2 physical asset presets. These Skeletal meshes can be used separately or can be combined together.
50 Animations.
2 BPs: 1 for Character and 1 for prey/mount. Player can Parasitize/control prey.
Advanced materials with rich settings. one for XenoCell and one for Shell.
Relax/stiffness HUD for better feedback and understanding.
Simple game menu (Can be seen in the demo).
Experimental/bonus feature: Additional surface creases for shell. (This feature is an experimental/bonus feature. Will cost some performance - see videos below).
XenoCell comes with LODs. LOD 0: 126270 vertices; LOD 5: 17024 vertices


Xeno Series material is a lightweight material with optimized Lightmap resolutions. This material gives you many settings like MPC, Noise movements on branches, scaling, rotating, bulge waves, thickness, pulse, opacity, emission, hue and more. All features use 4 type-mixable masks by growth, by length, by branch, and by segment. As a result of using and combining all of these features Xeno assets can be modified significantly and still remain a lightweight shader.

time code:
00:00 start with renders
01:04 live view and few fast looks
02:30 material instances. what capable of this material.
05:25 material is very optimised. all green. also there is lods
06:20 movements, physics parasitism
07:50 animations
09:00 collision test with animtest bp
09:03 shell material instances and overal look of them
09:50 shell mesh morphs
10:30 enabling shell and checking looks and than moving around..
