+# CSAF PSX Characters Sampler
+
+17 free low poly PS1 style 3D characters from the studio Core Systems Asset Factory (CSAF), one taken from each of its paid PSX character packs, from a knight and a plague doctor to a patrol officer and a shambler. The page lists 52 skins across the 17, about 1,500 triangles per character, 256 px PNG textures and one shared humanoid skeleton with 45 animation clips and a T pose, delivered as GLB, FBX, OBJ and the Blender source, with a PSX shader for Godot 4. The page says the bodies are built in code and the textures painted by AI image models over the models' own renders; the skeleton and clips are the CC0 Quaternius Universal Animation Library and the bodies come from MakeHuman.
+
+## Notes
+
+- Self-submission: listed by the publisher
+- Made with AI: the page states it in its own words (quoted in Evidence), and the itch.io AI disclosure on the page reads "AI Assisted, Code, Graphics"
+- Engines: the page says the GLB files were tested in a blank Godot 4.7.2 project under Forward+, Compatibility and Mobile, and that Unity 6 and Unreal 5 "were not run here"
+- This entry covers the free sampler only. The publisher sells the full casts as paid packs and as one paid PSX Character Library on the same itch.io account; those are not covered here
+- Review: a maintainer reading of the publisher's own terms (commercial use, no credit, no resale or redistribution of the models as assets) on the live page.
+
+## Evidence
+
+- Live page (2026-11-14): "Use the models in any number of commercial or non-commercial games, no attribution required, and modify them freely."
+- Same page (2026-11-14): "Do not resell or redistribute the models themselves as assets."
+- Same page (2026-11-14): "Made with AI tools: the bodies are built in code and their textures painted by AI image models over their own renders"
+- Same page (2026-11-14): "The skeleton and clips are the CC0 Quaternius Universal Animation Library; the bodies come from MakeHuman (CC0 output)."
