[Preview] Armor Sizing Program Update
Got another update for you guys on the armor sizing program FormFitter: https://www.facebook.com/groups/formfitter
This video shows off the "grouping" feature, which will be present at launch. It's purpose is to allow you to "group" files together for unified scaling. Say your back armor consists of 6 different parts, without grouping you'd have to scale each individual piece exactly the same in order for them to fit properly, the group feature will allow you to uniformly scale all 6 parts at once.
More features we worked on this week include the "Check Fit" function which will display a preview of how far the armor sits off your avatar - with closer fits leaning red and roomier parts leaning green. Model coloring is also being worked on, this is mostly just for visual preference to help identify armor parts with customized preference.
Hope you all enjoy! Check out the facebook group above for more video updates and FormFitter news!

I can't wait for this to drop. I'm new to cosplay armor, going to do the Eternal Slayer but I'm 6' 2" at 260lbs (muscular). So this program would be awesome to scale it properly. Keep us updated.
Im not sure if its possible to add but being able hide body parts would be great. Example working on a chest piece being able hide the arms, head, legs would make it so much easier.
So I’m sure I missed it. How are we to make the avatar? Like do I need to scan my client?
Just out of curiosity do you normally scan? What do you typically do, if you dont mind me asking cause my sizing is always off :(
Paused printing the rest of my Clone Armor when you originally announced this. Can't wait! Scaling has been a struggle, printed three chest pieces & none of them fit quite right. This should save me a lot of time & prints.
I’ve been in the same boat. Started working on my first mandalorian armor and have been struggling with the scaling portion.
Hey its a long shot can you make a add on for glasses
I hope this is compatible with Macs 🙏
It will be!
Very excited for this!
This is awesome! I would love to see a feature where you could prove a piece couldactually come off.. like a vambrace or a helmet.. given physical measurements and model scale, etc. Fitting snugly is one thing, but actually being able to get it on or off is completely different. at very least automatically generating a choke point or sizing slice would be great!
I volunteer as tribute for testing
I have recently ran into with Armor Smith. It doesn't account for different body types. Not sure if this is a option for future releases, but right now, I cannot create a proper avatar for someone who is broad like a strongman versus a dude with a beer belly. AS only makes them oval in a sense
Also, just take my 💰
I hope this is made available as part of your annual subscription
This is so amazing, totally worth the weight, I have put off a couple cosplay projects specifically waiting for this to launch because it will save me so much time! Please take all the time you need
Sweet!
So stoked for this. Armorsmith is good, but my god the crashes 😭
Badass guys. Keep up the work.
Can’t wait to put this software to good use! Armorsmith officially is on my last nerve lol 😑
You are doing amazing services my friend!!
Please make a Linux compatible port for this if it isn't too much effort.
I'm a Linux nerd and it's my preferred OS. That said, my gaming rig still runs Windows. I have a Steam Deck and love SteamOS, can't wait for it to be fleshed out and available as an 'anything' OS, but I digress. Check out wine, learn it up, and 99% of anything out there is Linux compatible. The learning curve is a bit rough though.
