Book Prop

[dastardlyjack]

This is a pretty simple request, but I haven't been able to find a particular prop I'd really like to have: A book that can open. There are book props already, but only closed books, as far as I've been able to find. What I'd really like is an asset of a closed book and one of the same book, but open. Failing that, just an open book would also work.

If you know of anything that fits the bill, please point me in the right direction. I don't know how to make one myself, so hopefully you guys can help out.

Possibly you can find some free asset somewhere and import it via Unity:

Guides - Unity AssetBundles for VaM 1.xx

After some people essentially begged me to do it, I spend several evenings this week and the this entire Saturday on writing a tutorial on Unity AssetBundles. It ended up to be an 13 page PDF of 2700 words. Lots of pictures, obviously. This...

hub.virtamate.com

Otherwise, as a workaround: There is a tablet asset in VaM. You can load pictures on it to display, so possibly call it an ebook-reader? (is anyone still reading physical books??)

I don't kow such an asset ready-made, sorry.
But if you maybe specify it a bit more (what appearance, old/new, thick/thin, purpose, animated or two single items),
maybe someone will create one. Or maybe you can find the perfect book as a free 3d mesh, so that someone only has to "convert" it.
By the way: it is not too complicated to create your own CUA, if you follow the tutorials closely. I really want to encourage anyone to maybe try it out.
