This part explains basic functions to customize your pony. We look at the "MY Pony" menu tab and make a brief introduction to the animation rig.
Some minor details are outdated (such as fixed bugs or since updated menus).
A first dive into the animation rig. Here we look at the available controls and how to use them. This should help dispel confusion about how the rig works.
We explain the first iteration of the "Custom Hair" made available with the project. This system is meant to provide an easy way to create fully customizable and animatable hair for your pony.
We go through how the hair works, how to make hair, how to change its shape and style it, change its color and finally how to rig it (make it follow the animated head of the character).
Disclaimer: The hair system in this version is still heavy and later updates will make it much lighter and easier to use. The custom hair system has been the fastest evolving part of the MYP project.
A long-form video where you can watch me remake one of my ponytown OC into MYP from scratch. In this video you can see me go through the base coloring, making custom hair, painting hair textures, painting body textures and rigging the hair. Helpful for visual learners.
Update on how to make hair from scratch using Make Your Pony 0.4.
This video includes a recap of the individual hair settings but does not explain how to customize the hair color or material.
