[ teaser ] Upcoming Gameface Web 1.3.0 Release

We usually do not do this, but we have some interesting enhancements coming over with the upcoming Gameface 1.3.0 web release and I cannot resist sharing some of the changes with you all.
Hair Visual Upgrade
I will start with just one point - Visual Upgrade. One of the major visual update introduced with this version is Hair Quality. Hair rendering is traditionally difficult to achieve, especially in a way that does not require high end graphics cards for everyone out there. Good news is, we have been able to significantly increase the visual quality by introducing a more sophisticated lighting reflection model on the surface of hair.
Here are a few examples:


As you can see, we can now also offer colorization options that were not reachable with the previous system.
Eye Colors
Announcing today another feature that has been requested many times over, that we are quite happy to be able to deliver.
In Gameface web, you can now change eye color right upon your generated Gameface avatar. The system will try and detect your eye iris contour and colorize accordingly, and will let you save the changes on your web avatar. Note that when importing into FIFA, it will try to match the color that you assigned, but the final looks of the eye will be FIFA specific.
A few examples:


We are still working on the final touches of this particular feature, but we are already getting a kick out of changing everybody's natural eye color in the team. You can also achieve interesting "lens" effects on top of more standard color changes.
New Shirt Color - Blue No More!
Gameface 1.3 will introduce a new shirt color. No more anti-fashion blue shirt color on your web avatar. Of course there is now more to it... More on this later.
