What it is

Didimo’s Popul8 is a paid tool for producing 3D game characters. It automates character creation, fitting garments and accessories across different shapes, and generating character variations. The system can create thousands of diverse, game-ready characters at scale. Popul8 Express exports assets to Unity and Unreal, while Enterprise also lists proprietary engines and Maya. Imported characters, garments, and animations are compatible with Maya, Blender, and other 3D software. Exports can be rigged and use FBX, glTF, Unity, or Unreal formats. Enterprise adds photo-to-3D, concept-art-to-3D, AI character generation, in-game character editors, and full client support. Express is positioned for indie and small teams; Enterprise targets large and mid-size studios. Express runs on Windows 10 or newer and macOS Monterey or newer, including M1 and M2 Macs. Access requires booking a demo and requesting software and a license file. Pricing is on request.
