I have no idea why the link looks unsafe for me.

You shouldn’t be submitting already,

Great to know that there are very specific and professional guidelines and rules to tackle the ones who came here just for the items, they would have a hard time!

To the rest, all the best!

What do you mean by this? I’m a tad bit confused.

Just a question do we have to use Blender or are other 3d modelling tools allowed?

Would earrings be considered too small?

I assume you are to take screenshots every so often to prove you made it.

Probably not, maybe add some leaves to it, you would just have to be careful how small you make it.

I’m a little bit confused on the “Only one mesh, don’t join more than one in the same item” So can we use more than 1 mesh and group them into one mesh or can we only start from 1 block?

Every 3D modelling software should be allowed as long as you can import it to Roblox and use it as a hat etc.

instead of having multiple meshes like, dark green part and light green part just import them as one is my understanding

In Blender you can have 10 separate blocks, press CTRL + J and then export it, it’ll only be one mesh, I think they mean if you were to have 10 separate meshes in the accessory!

Answering some questions you all are having in this post:

The best way to do this is to take some screenshots of the item while you’re still creating it (for example, the mesh still on Blender/Maya/etc.) and send them along with the item. There will be a question on the survey where you’re going to be able to upload them.

If you want, you can additionally record a video, upload it to YouTube (don’t forget to make it unlisted) and send it to us. There’s a question called “Any additional notes?” - feel free to copy the link there.

Only if the earrings are too small considering that they-re earrings. The size just needs to be coherent with the size of the avatar and with the type of item you’re creating (for example, earrings as big as the characters head would probably be too large).

Use whatever fits you best! We just mention Blender more often because it’s the more popular among developers.

As long as Roblox sees the item as one mesh (this is, one MeshId), you’re good!

The sky (with this, 1024, because Studio downsizes anything beyond that) is the limit. Go wild!

We’re not imposing technical limits on our side. If it loads on Studio you’re good!

AFAIK the Asset Creator plugin converts the MeshPart into a Part + SpecialMesh. We did not test with SurfaceAppearance but it only seems to work with MeshParts. So it’s possible you might be unable to use it anyway :frowning:

The testing place is private. I am just wondering if I am not member enough to gain access or if the permissions will be changed shortly?
