Demon Core Flail

Cast your mind back to the heady days of 1945: the trampoline had just been patented and would soon be injuring children and adults of all ages, cars were big and round and got about half a gallon to the mile, the 17th Academy Awards have named Bing Crosby and Ingrid Bergman as the winners for "Going My Way", and a big war or something were happening - I don't know, I'm not a historian!

Science is mostly about throwing stuff at a wall and hoping it does something - or so I've been told. To that end, why would we not take a lump of plutonium-gallium and encase it in nickel so it doesn't degrade too quickly? That just makes science sense! Also poking it with a screwdriver seems totally safe and reasonable, right? Right?

Yeah, probably not...

Anyhow! What you see here, what I have on offer for you today, is a lovely little digital representation of that initial experiment intended to demonstrate just how crazy unstable nuclear material is - but on a flail! Because that seems reasonable. Our horde of loosely house-trained vertex wranglers have managed to cobble together this utterly insane weapon of mass destruction; a weapon that is at once both hilariously ineffective, and crazy lethal.

We offer this to you today in a few key flavours:

• A posed model for display
• A fully rigged and articulated model with Dynamic Bones and rigid body for use in a VRC world (other platforms will require adaption)
• A fully rigged and articulated model with Physbones and colliders for use on an avatar in VRC
• A static model of the Demon Core itself for use as a prop
• A model of a screwdriver for Ultimate Realism™!

All above options come complete with a drag-and-drop prefab in this Unitypackage ready for deployment! Textures are 2k crunched for small size (screwdriver is 1k). And a Substance Painter file is included for the Demon Core Flail so you can retexture at your desire.

Full content list:

• 4 FBX files (rigged flail, static flail, demon core solo, screwdriver)
• Textures and materials for flail and screwdriver
• 5 prefabs with Dynamic Bones and Physbones applied (package does not include either)
• Demon Core Flail itself is about 8k polys

What you'll need:

• Unity 2022.3.6f1 or newer
• VRChat Creator Companion
• Dynamic Bones (if you want to use this as a world object - this is a separate purchase from the Unity Asset Store from it's author)
• Basic knowledge in the use of Unity

Who we are:

We are two 3D content producers specializing in unique models, avatar accessories, VR worlds and experiences, and beautifully done, well written and documented code. Ms Malvolio does the 3D modeling work and texturing. Corina does the programming. We have released VR Chat game worlds, avatar prefabs, furniture packs, small models, and some small artwork. Our goal is to make others enjoy working in Unity as much as we do, and have something cool to show for it!
