The "High Heels" feature in Durty Cloth Tool uses the games mechanic to adjust the player ped’s height when wearing high heel shoes. Without this adjustment, the character’s feet may glitch through the ground, which affects the overall appearance of the model. This feature helps you ensure that your character is positioned properly in the game world when wearing high heels by allowing you to adjust the height and see live changes in the 3D preview.
Tick the "Is High Heels" Option:
In the Drawable Details panel, enable the "Is High Heels" checkbox for any high heel shoes you are configuring.
This tells the game that the shoes being worn are high heels and adjusts the character’s position accordingly.
Set the Heel Height Amount:
Next, you need to input the Heel Height value that corresponds to the height of the shoe model.
The heel height represents how much the ped’s position will be lifted to prevent the shoes from sinking into the ground.
The height is measured in game units, and you should adjust this value until the character appears to stand correctly on the floor in the preview or by testing in game.
Use the 3D Preview to Fine-tune the Heel Height:
The 3D Preview window provides a live view of the ped standing on the floor, which allows you to instantly see any changes made to the Heel Height value.
As you adjust the heel height, watch how the shoes interact with the ground. The goal is to ensure that the heels sit properly above the ground, avoiding any clipping or glitches where the heels sink into the floor.
Simply increase or decrease the height value until the ped looks natural in their high heels.
Select a high heel shoe from the Drawables list.
Enable the "Is High Heels" checkbox.
Enter an estimated Heel Height value based on the shoe model.
Open the 3D Preview and check how the shoes sit on the floor.
Fine-tune the Heel Height value in small increments while watching the live preview until the ped stands naturally without the shoes clipping through the ground.
Did you know? You can select from various game audio presets to change the way your Shoes sound 🎶 when walking. See Audio Presets for more details.
Is High Heels: Enable this option for any high heel shoes to lift the ped’s position correctly.
Heel Height: Adjust this value to fit the high heel model so that the shoes don’t clip through the ground.
3D Preview: Use the preview to fine-tune the height by seeing live changes while the ped stands on the floor.
Skin Tone Data: Enable this when the shoes come with body parts like ankles or legs to ensure they match the ped’s skin tone. Be aware that this may slightly impact texture quality due to Rockstar's game engine limitations.
By following these steps and using the 3D preview to visualize changes, you can ensure that your character’s high heel shoes look natural in-game without any glitches or clipping issues.
