  To me this is a great addon. Its still in development but the stable version is production ready. The developers are really helpful. Been in touched with Oliver all the time regarding issues. And for all there were solutions. There is obviously still a lot that can be done, but it will come in time.

  Great package over all. Results look great in game engines as well, specifically tested in Unity HDRP (after some material fiddling post-import). Facial rig is very good. A few minor spots I hope can be smoothed over in future versions: I'd love to have alternate meshes that are a bit less dense (~35% fewer polygons could theoretically be perceptually lossless) for game engines. While the facial rig is generally very good, the handles don't always behave predictably, or I don't always know how to move them to get the result I'm after. Maybe just user error. Some of the built-in clothing deforms very strangely around the shoulders in t-pose.

  Broadly speaking, this is a really solid package if you need a very realistic looking human that will be about 80% of the way there. Depending on your usage, especially if you plan to export to a game engine, you'll end up needing to do some work manually like adding eyebrows, eyelashes, and hair cards. Realistically, you'll probably want to also dive in to modeling your own clothes - the star of the package is the actual human base mesh and the high quality materials for the body.

  Again, this would be an absolutely perfect package for my needs if there were a slightly decimated version of the mesh (the head especially is really dense for a game engine), so hopefully that's a possibility.

  Hey Jason,
  Thanks for the review and feedback!

  The main reason we decided to add more resolution in the face is to get high quality face deformations. However, I understand that a total polycount of 25k faces is on the high side for some projects, so we are looking at possibilities for poly reduction that could be applied somewhere in the process of creating a human.

  For the handles of the face rig, did you use them on the default rig or on Rigify. A bugfix release that launched today has fixed an issue where the handles in Rigify could move anywhere instead of just on their active axis.

  For the weird deformation on the shoulders of the T-Pose, if possible, send us a screenshot so we can take a look at this problem.

  Unfortunately I can`t recommend this add-on.
  1. it have to less possibilities, character faces etc.
  2. just standard skin colors (a few)
  3. a free tool called "MakeHuman" is much much better and yeah it it free!!!

  Hey Kletschka,
  Sorry to hear you were not satisfied with the add-on.
  May I ask if you tried the V2 update? It improved on many areas you mention in adding a lot of extra customization options and many more skin textures.

  As for MakeHuman you mention. I think that's also a good tool, but quite different from Human Generator in what it aims to do. I recommend people to take a look at both and decide what fits their workflow best.

  I was hesitant to buy it at first, well, I was wrong. This is a good addon, I love it. Hopefully in the future we will get stylized characters.

  Awesome to hear you like the add-on, Munyaradzi! We might do some experiments with stylized characters, but the main focus is on photorealism at the moment

  Amazing addon. Would love to be able to randomize all other stuff beside the face too. Like hair, facial. Basically one button to randomize a completely new human.

  Thanks for the review and the feedback, Ocean. We're definitely looking at options to include a single randomize button for the whole human.

  Hey Auria,

  We'd have gladly helped you out with installing Human Generator, but it looks like you refunded it 2 hours after messaging our support, so we were not able to reply in time.

  Regards,

  You should give more information of hardware requirement for this addons installation. My PC is 64bit, Intel core i5, CPU 2.5 GHz, RAM 4GB. However, after I install this addon and using it, the blender it was too much slow.

  Thanks for the review and the feedback, Ar!

  In regards to your concern about performance, may I ask if you are experiencing this issue in Eevee (material mode) or in normal shaded mode?

  A computer those specifications should be able to run Human Generator just fine in shaded mode. It is however to be expected to get a bit slow if you're editing the model in Eevee on a computer without a dedicated graphics card, as Eevee is a GPU renderer.

  Another thing that will impact performance is if you turned off the option that automatically hides the particle hair children.

  Regards,
  Oliver
