Is there any way to add your own character to a Rise scenario? I don't think adding them to a background image will work well since the image it blurred a bit on purpose? I'd appreciate any ideas?
Right now, there is not a supported way to upload your own character images to the scenario block in Rise 360, but that is a feature request we're tracking so I'll add your voice to the mix. We'll keep you posted on any updates!
Hi Crystal, thanks for your reply, we are looking at developing scenarios in developing country settings, training/informing on WASH technologies. So characters that are demonstrating, speaking to a group, not with a headset.
The idea had been to upload our own images, but barring that just having some characters that were not in a traditional industry setting would be a good start.
Could you add characters that would fit that profile?
You have a way to upload scenario backgrounds. I'm really surprised you don't feel the characters should function the same way. We definitely need that feature as well.
I would really like to add my own characters as well, it is good to be able to use the person who is sharing information in videos and use them in a scenario as well.
I have been working with Storyline for a couple of years now. I am now developing my first course in Rise. I would love to be able to import characters to this. Unfortunately the Storyline content looks more like a slide show in Rise. I like the variety of leaning styles that Rise offers. Any updates on this? Can I layer images in Rise?
Did you know you can right-click on a character from a Storyline slide, and select Export Pose > Save as picture? Then, you can import the image into Rise 360 using any image block.
What timing. I literally just figured that out and emailed your support team to see if that was ok. That will work for now. Thanks! -Kirk Sent from Mail for Windows 10
I feel being able to upload characters (similar to backgrounds) is essential. We have illustrations of characters as well as backgrounds that would work beautifully with this feature if it were possible.

Thanks for asking, Michael!

The scenarios cold use audio too. :-) Thank you Alyssa!
Thanks for the idea! I'll pass that along to our team, too. 😁
Hi, has there been any progress on adding the ability to add your own character in scenarios?
Hello, Marike. No update on custom characters in scenarios at this time.
Do you have a certain type of person or uniform in mind, or do you have branded images of people that you wanted to upload?

Thanks in advance.
Thanks for letting us know what you need, Marike! We'll let you know if we add new characters in the future.
Hi Alyssa,
There is any new on this development? I really like the idea of the scenarios but using own characters. Let us know if there is something on the way!
Thanks!
Hi Albert!
We don't have plans for a custom character feature in Scenario Blocks right now, but thanks for letting us know you're interested in it!
This is something I would also be interested in, so I can add characters that are wearing our company uniforms.
This is excactly what we need actually... I wanted to ask this precisely ! Thank you
We need it as well, if there any way you can make it real quicky.... I think this is a real nead of the community...
Thanks !

I need to have characters in my scenarios that have masks on for Covid-19 training sessions. Is there any way to get this content updated?
Hello, Shana! I let our team know that you'd like to see characters wearing masks added to Content Library 360. Thanks for the request!

Hi Braden,
Check out this video tutorial from a fellow community member, Matt!
do we have a timeframe for when this will be available?
Hello, Catherine. Adding custom characters to a scenario block isn't on the immediate roadmap. We'll let you know here if that changes.
Would be a great customization feature.
Please add my vote to being able to add custom characters to the scenario block!
