Assemble a costume and fix what clashes

Pieces that fit on their own can still fight each other — a pauldron that hits the helmet, a vambrace that digs into a gauntlet. Costume Forge wears them together on your body and says where.

Before you start

Put the pieces on

1. Open Costume Forge

   In the Cosplay Realm's rail, choose Costume Forge — or press Assemble in Costume Forge › on a build.

2. Choose the body

   Under Fit to measurements, pick your profile (or Average adult).

3. Add your pieces

   Under Add a piece, choose from your library. A costume holds up to eight — the tape reads pieces worn · …/8.

4. Or a downloaded model

   Press Add a downloaded model, choose the file, say what it is under It's a, and press Wear it. It's read on your device, never uploaded.

5. Place pairs

   Arm and leg pieces go Right or Left; add one twice for a pair. A prop can also be Centre. Keep Move pairs together on to mirror them.

Read the clashes

1. Set the clearance

   Under Clearance, set the gap you want between pieces (1.0 cm to start).

2. Read the list

   A Clash is two pieces in the same space; a Tight one clears by less than your clearance and will bind when you move. Nothing clashes. This costume can be worn. means you're done.

3. See them all

   On the toolbar, Collisions labels every one on the body; Wear calls out only the worst.

Fix them

1. Read the fix it card

   fix it names the worst clash and offers up to two moves — Lift … (R) 1.4 cm, Move … out 0.5 cm.

2. Apply one

   Press a move. Each was checked before it was offered, so it clears that clash — though it may meet another. It moves that one piece, not its pair.

3. Or trim, or nudge by hand

   Where trimming would do better, it says how much and from which end — in Piece Forge for a piece you made. To place a piece yourself, select it and type Outward (or Across), Up and Forward, or drag it.

If something's off

“Nothing to wear yet”

You have no saved pieces. Press Open Piece Forge, or Wear a downloaded model.

“… is already worn everywhere it can go.”

That design is on both sides already. Each design can be worn once per side.

A downloaded model says not loaded

Model files stay on your device, so a reopened costume asks for it again — press Load ….

“No nudge of these pieces clears it…”

Change one of the pieces in Piece Forge, or in your 3D software.
