I know preparing mount points and the like. But what's the best way to prevent Z fighting with customizations close to moving parts like elbows and knees?

Here are some ways to prevent z fighting.
- Make the near and far planes close together and the space between clothing parts as far as possible.
- Depending on the types of animations and the situation it might be possible to disable z testing/writing and rely on painters algorithm.
- Write a screen capture app. Go through your characters and animations and have your artist adjust the animations if there are problems.
