Editing Item Info
In “Item Info” on the right, you can edit the item’s information. Changes are saved immediately.
Thumbnail
The item’s thumbnail (the preview image shown in the list).
- 🔄 button (Regenerate Preview) ― Recreates the preview image from the item’s current appearance. Use it after changing the appearance with an edit tool, for example.
- Change Thumbnail ― Replaces the thumbnail with an image file (png, jpg).
Name
The item’s name. It is applied when the input field loses focus or when you press Enter. Renaming changes the file name of EAUploader’s managed copy. The name of the source Prefab you imported does not change.
Genre
Choose from “Avatar”, “Cloth”, “Accessory”, and “Other”. Only items whose genre is “Avatar” can be uploaded. The genre is used for category filtering in the Avatar List and for the list of outfits in Dress Up (Compatible Outfits).
Tags
When you type in the input field, existing tags are suggested. Choose a suggestion or press Enter to add a tag. For a tag name that does not exist yet, add it with Create new tag. Press × on an added tag to remove it from the item.
Tag names can be up to 32 characters. The tags and groups of the whole project can be managed with Tag Settings on the Avatar List.
Memo
You can leave any notes. They are saved when the input field loses focus.
Pin and Hide from list
- Pin ― When on, the item is shown at the top of the Avatar List.
- Hide from list ― When on, the item is no longer shown in the Avatar List (turn on “Show hidden items” to see it).
Pin and Hide cannot be set at the same time.
Details
Shows the last updated date, avatar height (viewpoint height), Blueprint ID, and asset path (the path of EAUploader’s managed copy). The Blueprint ID is masked, and you can toggle its display with the 👁 button. The Blueprint ID and the asset path can be copied to the clipboard with the copy buttons.
Duplicate and Delete
- Duplicate ― Creates another copy of the item and opens the duplicate. Use it when you want to keep the state before modifying, or make a different modification of the same avatar. The duplicate is also a managed copy based on the imported source Prefab, so the original data is not affected.
- Delete ― Deletes the item. See “Deleting Items” for details.
Going to Upload
For items whose genre is “Avatar”, a Go to upload button is shown at the bottom of Item Info. Pressing it opens the upload sheet on the right side of the screen. See “Uploading Avatars” for how to use it.
