Session/Scene plugin: loading characters

[Saglinger]

I was just struck with how cumbersome it is to add a specific character to a scene. You have to add the person(which goes to the default model), wait for that person to load, then load the look/appearance preset.

Then I was struck with an idea; use a plugin to add the look/appearance preset to the scene directly, skipping the loading of the default model assets.

If you are wanting to add a new person atom to a scene you have no choice but to have the default model load it is what it is and theres no way to change this behaviour. You cant set a custom look to take over the default model.

I guess you could write a plugin to spawn an atom then change the appearance immediately but as for how that would happen is beyond my expertise (I dont code at all)

I myself just use JayJaywons Uiassist plugin and have a button setup to spawn people and then have all my looks set as presets for one touch character changes.
