Modesty Layers are broken. Avatar Bundles >NEED< to have default 2D Clothing rendered on them

[KaranBlox (Karan)]

This has been a problem for a long time. The ROBLOX staff has confirmed that they will not support 2D clothing, so I don’t have much hope, but I hope they will change their decision.

Modesty layer should not be required on bundles that support 2D Clothing

Hey all, I can’t address everything in this thread in one response, but thanks for all the feedback here. I’m here to confirm that Roblox isn’t officially supporting 2D clothing on UGC bodies. Only 3D clothing is officially supported for UGC bodies. Our main reason for not supporting 2D clothing with UGC bodies is concerns about the layering of seemingly innocuous 2D clothing on arbitrarily-UV’d bodies. ev1’s pixel bodies were an amazing example of this used for good, but this same trick coul…

If these characters were rendered with clothing, then it wouldn’t be a problem.

There is no need for this. The body colors of the characters are already gray in the catalog. Thumbnail may look bad. The system I recommend:

Classic (blocky, non-human) characters = no need for modesty layer.

Absolutely I agree! I’ve been waiting for such an update for a long time.

There are a few more issues regarding UGC bundles:

• Bodyscaletype always set to 1. This makes it difficult to create classic bundles. It’s annoying that something so simple is not under the developer’s control.

Classic R15 UGC Bundles' BodyScaleType always set to 1

Ever since the launch of UGC bundles, the BodyScaleType property of classic R15 UGC bundles always get set to 1 (100%) upon uploading them to the Avatar Marketplace. This happens to all UGC bundles with RigType=R15 and RigScale=Default. This warps the artist’s intent of the character, making the character appear taller and stretched out on the website’s thumbnail than what it actually looks like within Roblox Studio. Reproduction Steps Upload a UGC bundle with the following configuration: R…

• Static heads should be allowed. It is impossible to make dynamic heads for some characters. This pushes developers to make fake dynamic heads. It’s really ridiculous that ROBLOX doesn’t allow classic heads.
