Where Winds Meet Character Creation & Customization Guide
Create the perfect wuxia hero in Where Winds Meet. This guide walks through every customization option, preset codes, and how to adjust your appearance after launch.
Introduction
How Character Creation Works
Where Winds Meet offers one of the most detailed creators in modern wuxia RPGs. You can tune facial structure, body proportions, hairstyles, and colors with hundreds of sliders and presets. Because deep appearance changes are limited later, careful setup at the start matters.
- Appearance cannot be freely changed afterward without premium items.
- Export your customization code before confirming to avoid losing your design.
- Preview under multiple lighting scenes; small tweaks look different in-game.
Layout
- Left: categories (Face, Hair, Body, Makeup, etc.).
- Center: 3D preview with rotate, zoom, and lighting toggle.
- Right: detailed sliders and fine-tuning options.
- Bottom: Randomize • Reset • Import Code • Export Code • Confirm.
Pre-checks
- Confirm server/slot before customizing.
- Save codes after big changes.
- Test a few animations and poses to catch odd proportions.
