Disney Dreamlight Valley, you'll need to copy your avatar code from the Avatar Designer Tool. You can find it right in the main menu of the avatar designer. Press “show Avatar Code” to see the 10-character code. When you access Disney Dreamlight Valley for the first time, head to Settings and you'll see the option to Import Avatar. Paste or type your code in and your avatar will be added instantly. It's almost just that easy, apart from a couple of caveats.
Here's the fine print on character importing:
- The code only lasts 24 hours, so if you don’t use it in time you’ll need to generate a new one in the Avatar Designer Tool.
- The code will import the most recent avatar settings and outfit that you had equipped. Double check what you’re wearing before you generate that code.
- You can only import a character using an Avatar Code one time so let’s say triple check, just to be safe.
Don't fret too much though. You can change your character's appearance almost immediately after starting Dreamlight Valley—including details like hairstyles, features, and skin color. You can change what you're wearing too, but you'll be restricted to what's in your inventory, which won't include all the many options from character creation. For instance, I had a couple of extra pairs of jeans, glasses and other basics in my inventory, but not items like jewelry.
As a tip, don't be afraid to layer up. Even if you don't want a coat or backpack or Mickey Mouse ears with the outfit you've created, it couldn't hurt to put one on before starting the game. You can always take it off and save it for later. That's what I call prepared.
