Quickstart [Deprecated]

Load your personal Ready Player Me avatar in Unity in less than 10 minutes.

1. Download and open Unity

The Ready Player Me SDK requires Unity 2019.4.11f1 LTS or later.

Get Unity

You need an avatar URL. If you don't have an avatar and an avatar URL, create one now at demo.readyplayer.me, a demo property for creating avatars, or at your own subdomain. Copy the URL.

2. Download and import the Unity SDK

Download the latest Ready Player Me Unity SDK.

Extract the downloaded content, then drag and drop the Unity Package into your project, or import the package via Assets -> Import Package -> Custom Package.

If the Newtonsoft Json package is already installed in your project, uncheck it in the package import dialog.

When you import the package for the first time, you will be asked to allow analytics. By doing so, you can help us improve the Unity SDK.

3. Open the runtime example scene

Go to Assets -> Plugins -> Ready Player Me -> Examples -> Runtime Example and open the Runtime Example Scene.

4. Load your own personal avatar

If you haven't done so already, create your personal avatar with the demo web Avatar Creator at https://demo.readyplayer.me/avatar.

Copy the Avatar URL.

Return to the Unity Runtime Example Scene.

In the Hierarchy, find the Runtime Example component.

Paste the Avatar URL into the Avatar Url Property.

5. Run your project

Click Play and wait a moment for your avatar to load and animate.
