There are two main issues with visualization when it comes to adjustible meshes (the “body sliders”). The way that all of the customizable character data is stored isn’t actually a body at all, but a common default mesh with offsets for each adjustible value. It gets worse with animations, too.

When doing character animations, specially characters with hundreds of thousands of animation frames (like Cuphead ), using an atlas will not give any increase in performance (as only one frame is drawn at the same time). It is not possible to batch meshes either. Optimizing Memory. so I can soon move to work on Vulkan.

The material is what you set to 2D nodes or to 3D meshes in order to draw them. Is every bit of grass a mesh and an object? Do they make animations for each piece of grass? For this, you define a specialized uniform : shader_type canvas_item; uniform vec4 my_color : hint_color; // Edit as a color. How do they do it?
