Squadron 42
In August 2025, Cloud Imperium Games partnered with 4D facial performance capture service StarCitizen:DI4D and post-production company StarCitizen:TexturingXYZ to launch a new 4D facial mocap service. As part of this collaboration, Clear Angle was involved in the custom character creation and NPC scans, but they were not involved in scanning the talent.<ref name=":0" />
Clear Angle did the capture and the processing of raw data, which was passed along to DI4D for mesh tracking. After DI4D was done with it, the data came back to Clear Angle. It was textured, then sent to TexturingXYZ, which did the map enhancements and the texture work. All in all, it took around a month to put the video together.<ref name=":0" />
