Redering clothing on humanoidless NPCs

[Revlayz]

My current npc system involves them not having a humanoid in order to reduce lag. (There will be a lot of NPCs often cramped together.)

However we have ran into a problem where we have no idea how to render shirts and pants onto the NPCs.

Does anyone have a good way of doing it?

Feel free to discuss below. We couldn’t find any thread on this, so this wouldnot only help us but other developers in the future.

Instead of clothing (like a texture?), you can make the clothes physical parts.

How to dress custom NPCs?

So I’ve made a custom NPC system to have hundreds of NPCs, but now I looked at them and realized: They are all gray and I didn’t think a second at how I would be going to cloth them. Since I don’t use Humanoids, I have no idea on how to dress them. I saw a bigger developer make a custom NPC system aswell and he clothed them, but as already mentioned, I have no idea how he managed to do that. My thought would be having decals for each cloth, but that would be so annoying to make and I doubt tha…

Putting clothings on NPC without humanoid

Hey, I have searched around looking for answers, I’ve yet not found anything. My problem is that I want my game to run as smoothly as possible and I am trying to resort to reducing lag from NPC and I found that humanoid is a huge factor in lag. What are the ways I could do this? I am thinking decals but it seems a bit unnecessary. If you’re able to do this, mind giving us an open source? Would be much appreciated

Slapping textures on the body parts is the only way.

The NPCs all already parts right?, so adding more parts can form the clothing.
