Yo-kai Watch 4++ Optimization Mod

[hallow kettle]

Not possible

[eternal moat]

Just make the game look worse! Change the models to be simpler or something

[hallow kettle]

We can't edit models

[eternal moat]

Yet.

[hallow kettle]

It's not coming homie

[lament mantle]

Wdym yet? The leading modder in YW4 said he had no interest in doing it.

[eternal moat]

There's no "leading modder." anyone can mod the game.

[hallow kettle]

Bad take actually

it's just not feasible

and any existing modders aren't interested anyway

🤷‍♂️

Mesh edits are 100% possible even right now

Just not worth the effort

[lament mantle]

People can be better than others at modding dawg

[eternal moat]

You can't pin the whole modding scene on one person, though. If other people want to do it, they can. It's all up to one singular person.

[lament mantle]

I don’t mod 4 so I didn’t know that, I asked Light a while ago if it was possible and he said something along the like how he wants mods to be creative and not random model imports

[lament mantle]

I’m talking exclusively about 4

[eternal moat]

Yeah, i'm aware.

[hallow kettle]

Bro doesn't know

[lament mantle]

Light is just the best YW4 modder

He just knows the most about it

Adding new yokai

[hallow kettle]

Me and Light are the only ones who mod YW4 seriously

That's the thing

[lament mantle]

Texture swaps

[hallow kettle]

there isn't a "modding scene"

[lament mantle]

Ong

[hallow kettle]

My biggest accomplishments in YW4 is creating the unfinished randomizer and having a brainblast about adding new yokai (which Light applied in practice)

[weary carbon]

There's not really a point in 'optimizing' it when the easiest way to test mods is through an emulator, which has no problems unless your PC itself isn't powerful enough.
Plus I don't like making mods that make the game look or play worse
