Minecraft News: Character Creator For Minecraft Earth & More!

Welcome back to another video here on the second channel we have some minecraft news in the form of a custom character creator called character crea and it’s rolling out for bedrock edition which is Windows 10 and Android and Xbox and all of that good stuff so yes there

Is a big article here and some screenshots and we can actually go and check this out today which is what we’ll do in this video well the thing I’ll mention there is no mention of jar Edition at all right here so we have no idea if there are plans to bring this

Custom character creator over to the Java edition of the game so anyway there’s a bunch of text introducing you to it all there’s some screenshots here of different characters that can be created using this and they may just look like skins but we pay attention here you’ll notice there is a height

Difference between the characters that’s one of the big changes that you can make over regular skins and it said that you’re not gonna get any kind of in-game advantages or anything like that also you might know that notice that the hair is big and puffy and so more things are

Possible more customization layers etc going on here for these custom characters old skins won’t be compatible with this the only two that are are steve and alex which you can use as a base do then go in and do all of the different layers as we go down there’s

More text then you get to start to see some of the interface for this which we’ll check out in-game in just a moment and it’s all pretty cool right like looking really interesting you can see pretty typical kind of layer selection screen that you would see when customizing a character and you’ll

Probably notice mine coins as well on some of the icons and up here in the top right I believe that a lot of the stuff for customizing is going to be monetized which I’m not particularly keen on but you know it is what it is and yeah capes down here they’re not

Gonna be compatible as well sorry they are what am I saying your mind con capes whatever type of cape you have is compatible with this character model and also one last thing I’d like to point out that I haven’t really seen mentioned or seen inside of the game this

Character here kind of looks like they got Saints slung over their shoulder and that may be a feature that’s coming soon that isn’t actually in the beta testing so here we are in the beta of the Windows 10 edition of the game to get to the character customization you just

Click on profile down here and there is this whole screen where you can flick through some of the presets the templates you can hold on to like five or seven of them I think at once and this is one that I made earlier and doesn’t it look interesting oh yes it

Does if we click on create character here we’ll be able to go in and start to customize a character and you can see we’ve got the base skin of Alex for this one when you click over here you’ll go to the classic skin setup and it will

Show you the ones that you own and it will show you ones that you can buy but these are classic old-school skins that can’t be customized when you go into the character creator you have two menus one for body and one for style so we can see

Here this tends to be you know things that go over the very top like cloves right I’ve just noticed back item maybe I didn’t spot this before maybe that’s the thing that we saw oh I can’t rotate my character now mmm oh there we go ah tail right so maybe that thing slung

Over the shoulder was in here after all I guess there’s a whole bunch of stuff to check out so let’s start off with the body if you go into base you can pick Steve or Alex nope that’s not where it is I did all of this a moment ago there

Is an area where you could pick Steve or Alex but I don’t seem to remember where that was hah well anyway let’s continue so you have this kind of like base layer for your skin and some of the layers can be quite confusing as well I think

Vitiligo is actually a condition of the skin where the pigmentation changes and I don’t know if these are other medical conditions but yeah there’s different types of skin then you can click down here to change the color now what you can’t do is choose a custom color of

Your own entirely there doesn’t appear to be that all go in and edit individual pixels so you’re kind of stuck with this that whatever you can do with those initial options right so then you can click over here to go back and you can customize everything you can go to eyes

And you can actually make your character eyeless by clicking on none or maybe double clicking but I’ll clicking up there still getting used to this interface so now I have no eyes but as you saw a moment ago I made one with a cyclops which I thought was really cool we’re

Gonna go with the classic Corrales eyes over here I think shocked yes and then we’ll go into hair and we can click none see those crazy shocked eyes but there’s loads of different hairstyles and you can see some are quite free dimensional and big I’ll look at that afro we have

We are taking that and we’ll make it a nice big blue afro I like it so then we’ll go back and we’ll go into each of these menus together basically facial hair you getting all that it’s just making it I’m on that blue as well yeah that is just magnificent blue and

Yellow it reminds me of The Simpsons going into the arms here’s where things get really cool so you can see in this men you’ve only got a couple of options really and that is to create like kind of robotic arms prosthetic forearm and prosthetic hand I mean then you’d have

To pay for these other ones we can go for that one as well and then we have the same options for the right arm so you don’t have to have them perfectly the same which is kind of cool I like that very much same dealio with the legs I’ll also

Point out that these ones are noted down here is being common and then we have uncommon and then we have rare so different rarities this also makes me think there might be a chance of getting these inside of the Minecon earth sorry minecraft earth game which is being made

For without actually happened to pay mind coins which i think would be pretty fair or it might just be part of the whole aesthetic things remember this is actually for the mine craft earth I always go to the same mine Kong because they pulled it mine Connor if a couple

Years ago it drives me mad so you just went into arms with it legs and now side so here you can see you can make your character kind of bigger it kind of looks like they just add a couple of extra pixels somewhere in the mid rift

And then yeah all the way down to a small one you can make their arms wider or skinny so definitely a big difference between those two right and if you’re playing PvP everyone’s probably gonna pick a smaller sized character because the smaller you are the harder to hit

Right I believe that work so now we can go into close stuff that goes over the top layer maybe this is the bit way you choose Steve and Alex I’m not entirely sure but there’s also this problem around here that I see where the layers start to get a little bit confusing like

You might your dress to go over the legs there but I’ve seen some skins that don’t they sort of cut off at certain different points that could actually just be you know a bark or things being works out right but for now we’re gonna go with

The dress and let’s go down to the bottom here because I’m gonna imagine yay look so then these these ones don’t go over the dress you have to go back and figure out all which one was it that it’s not compatible with it can be a little bit annoying sometimes there’s a

Bit unintuitive and other times it’s not so bad like just a moment ago so we’ve got some outerwear here looks like all of these require coins is that a cape or kind of reminds me of one of the Cape designs see that looks like you’d have some big shoulders on display but I

Don’t see them so I’m not sure if another layer is interfering with that or not we’ll go back and we just checked out outerwear so now we’re onto headway we’re just gonna have a flick for all of these her top hat on top of the afro I

Love that looks amazing I really do think this is great I think this should be like you know available to everyone though all the Java players as well that’s funny how it changes the the afro clue I’m gonna go with that I’m definitely going with that so we’re

We’re up to gloves so you can put gloves on your character this one all coins and here’s that here’s one of these layer issues why can’t I see the gloves surely they’ll go over the top of those arms right let’s actually do an experiment together go back to the arms put them on

The fall and see if those gloves appear okay so back gloves now they appear you’d expect that you’d expect them to appear on top of the other ones at least I did oh wow I so want boxing gloves on this character down to Footwear now so

We gave them some custom legs so oh no actually this time we get to see some of the the footwear here bunny feet are so cool that is so cool and then didn’t you see that already the tail at the back and the face I am we get some face tats

Okay oh that’s perfect wonderful Oh we’ll be like Judi that’s that’s so cool oh they’re just sunglasses see well there you go I believe I’ve pretty much shown you everything you can also go over here and just have a closer look and then you press back up here to go

Back so I’ve created two crazy-looking characters I just noticed occasionally they blink in the menu here which is a nice little feature and I think we’ve pretty much seen everything there is for the character creation menu interface and all the features so far so yeah that

Brings us to the end of the video thanks for watching I will see you later bye
