Last night we dressed the whole squad.
- Football kits fitted onto the MetaHuman players.
- Player last name and number on the back, pulled from the squad database and unique to every player.
- Club sponsor across the front.
- Club colours plus accent trim: collar, cuffs, shorts stripe and hem.
- Custom boots.
The clever bit: names, numbers and the sponsor are UI widgets rendered to textures at runtime, then stamped onto the shirt material. Vector-sharp text, correct transparency, and it re-skins instantly per club and per player. No pre-baked kit art anywhere.
The back of a player running away from the camera with his own name on it is the "oh, this is real data" moment. The opponent wearing a different club's colours with his own name and number proves it is per-team, not hardcoded.
Next week's focus: player tackle animations.
