That would be a ballistic change of content on my mods hhsdgafkekbutHD

nimble basin
#

Not skimpy, yet

red reef
#

I made one skimpy mod

#

but then DocPresto hit me up with "hey, I made thsoe bondage ropes in 5 minutes with a new technique lmao" and I was like "are you gonna publish this"

#

so as soon as he makes the rest, I'm gonna publish something outright NSFW itscometothis

nimble basin
#

Well that escalated quickly

red reef
#

IKR?

#

but also it led to solicited dick picks

red reef
#

because we needed a masc refit and weren't sure how to deal wth the noodle huehue

nimble basin
#

It complies with the weights or it gets the rope

nimble basin
#

C'mon, it's only uh

#

560 more icons

warped dome
#

It's SUPER UWU

nimble basin
#

quick maths

warped dome
red reef
#

you can actually make a custom tag

#

have two components/refits

#

one for the headset as standalone, and one to wear above your helmet

#

that way, you can throw out the headset as its own item, and when it's equipped together with the helmet, the smol one gets hidden and the big one loads

nimble basin
#

I was rly considering doing that when I saw it lmao

#

When my modding skill improves

warped dome
#

What's the situation with the EEX review btw?

#

My vpers actually asked me to request new slots for this helmet

red reef
#

Currently on hold, I think we'Re done brainstorming

red reef
warped dome
#

But I think Psiberx had enough of me requesting slots

red reef
#

let's do it right one last time

#

Make sure that the head section covers your needs

#

and then we'll never have to touch it again

warped dome
#

well idk what other stuff I'll make, maybe some more modern ops core in the future with 20 accessories or some shit, I'll always needs slots

#

Idea is this current one is actually compatible for the most part with my mask

red reef
#

at some point you'll have to leave well enough alone πŸ˜‚

warped dome
#

Which is why I don't want to occupy slots there

red reef
#

I mean, in general, you can also assign other slots

#

it doesn't have to be a head slot

warped dome
#

I'll probably take a look at what's available and improvise

#

I still have some things to do

#

Just finished all helmet icons, 328

#

So this one is finally done for

red reef
warped dome
#

Need to recheck the balaclava colors and stitches

#

And after I'm done with that, i make icons and that's all there is for female version

#

Then refit the whole thing for male

#

And that's the mod done

warped dome
#

Icons for balaclava

#

No way in hell im making double icons

nimble basin
#

You sure?

warped dome
#

i dont have balaclava icons yet since colors not final

#

thats what i meant by making more icons

#

like 18 icons left

nimble basin
#

hell ye

red reef
#

oh, ok

warped dome
#

I'll be sniping some fresh talent from this screenshot channel in this server for some extra previews

#

Target goal of 50 vpers for this mod

nimble basin
#

50 you say?

warped dome
#

Yes, wanna contribute? hah

#

You get the mod anyway

#

Early

nimble basin
#

I'd be delighted to take some, but I'm still learning the whole photography bidness

#

I wouldn't be sensitive if you wanted someone more experienced lmao

warped dome
#

Is ok, I do take some vp-ers that are new to this field although yes, I first ask my vp army

nimble basin
#

That's understandable

warped dome
#

Priority is always my vp-ers -> then anyone else with vp that i like and haven't shot for me before -> others

nimble basin
#

Np np

#

I can share a few of my favs if you want, I also post to the screenies channel occasionally

warped dome
#

I saw some of yours

#

Pretty good

#

New to this field I take it?

nimble basin
#

Thank

warped dome
#

I was just like this as well

nimble basin
#

Well, I messed with it for a few weeks maybe a year ago

warped dome
#

Been doing vp for over 2 years now i think

nimble basin
#

But I didn't rly start getting serious until about the end of Jan this year

#

And I still don't know how to post-process, so all my stuff is pretty raw save for reshade dof and luts

warped dome
#

Yah ik, i was same

#

you get to learn with time

nimble basin
red reef
#

Is there an Arasaka variant that I can put on Takemura? πŸ˜„

warped dome
#

No

nimble basin
#

Damn, he was quick with it

warped dome
#

Wait ill show you how i started hhsdgafkekbutHD

#

I hope you don't have the impression i got good in 2 days

nimble basin
#

lmao

warped dome
#

I have some pretty funny (not really) home made meme with my vp in military outfits

#

This is my vp over like idk 2 years

nimble basin
#

How do I get xp boosters

#

pls

#

I'm at lvl 2

warped dome
red reef
#

honestly, 80% of the fight is picking the right lighting/the right place

nimble basin
#

I feel like I'm getting the hang of composition and framing, but not knowing how to correct anything afterwards kills me sometimes I feel

warped dome
#

Let me tell you my best and pro tip

#

Very easy to replicate

#

do not tilt the camera

red reef
warped dome
#

took me a while to learn

nimble basin
#

Wait, you can tilt the camera?

red reef
nimble basin
#

I'm kidding lmao

warped dome
nimble basin
#

Gorgeous pics tho, both of yas

warped dome
#

ty uwu

warped dome
red reef
#

I don't think you can take bad screenshots at jig-jig street lmao

nimble basin
#

The way your V pops from that background is chefKISS

red reef
#

that's a little post processing :3

nimble basin
#

I'll have to bug ya'll for tips

red reef
nimble basin
#

mm

#

I see

red reef
#

using "select subject" in phootshop to get her on an extra layer

#

the using "edit -> auto..."

#

I usually pop a layer mask on a folder and have a bunch of duplicates in there so that I can work destructively and my changes affect only the character

warped dome
#

Oh you wanna see how i waste my time in photoshop edits? lHmadsdf
I'm an absolute madman

red reef
#

photoshop usually goes waaaay too far, so I lower the opacity and merge it back on the original when I like it

warped dome
nimble basin
#

I do does

#

I think my first shot of yours I saw was the woman holding her finger to her lips

red reef
#

anyhow, after I have the character enhanced a little, I duplicate the layer, set it to blending mode screen and 10-30% opacity

nimble basin
#

Was like sheeeeeeeeeee, I thought I was making progress

red reef
#

then duplicate that layer and set it to blending mode overlay or soft light with half the opacity of the screen layer

#

even if you use the original colours, that will add vibrancy

nimble basin
#

I appreciateeeee

warped dome
#

I am kinda retarded when it comes to PS

red reef
#

ohh, I see what you did there πŸ˜„

warped dome
nimble basin
#

If that's retarded then sign me up

warped dome
#

this one is the funniest one i ever did

red reef
#

makes her look like a barbie lmao

warped dome
#

REAL

red reef
#

I tried to have a shower effect for one of mine, but I completely and utterly failed, so I just went with the usual

nimble basin
#

so sicc

red reef
#

some PL spoilers, depending on POV

nimble basin
#

oop

#

I haven't played yet

warped dome
#

Me neither

nimble basin
#

You know what you can play with tho

red reef
#

it contains zero gameplay content πŸ˜„

nimble basin
#

@steep oasis IM SORRY IT WAS A CHEAP SHOT

#

I took a peek anyway, vgud

red reef
#

PL led me off to a "you thought that was rock bottom? hold my beer" AU πŸ˜‚

nimble basin
#

That's how I felt going through all the main story endings

red reef
#

without spoiling anything, they came up with something that makes you feel even worse

nimble basin
#

That's wonderful lmao, that shit almost made me cry

red reef
#

that shit made me write almost a million words of fanfic because I needed to gently ease myself into the full copium

warped dome
#

Ahhh I also wrote some lore stuff for the first time for my character

red reef
warped dome
#

I should've done this years ago

nimble basin
#

D'aw

red reef
#

(she has more hats)

warped dome
#

I'm usually just a vp idiot, using my character solely for previewing people's mods (as of late)

#

Not anymore, time for some REAL lore

nimble basin
#

I preordered the game, but didn't finish it until last year lmao

red reef
#

hahaha, valid

nimble basin
#

Then a friend of mine convinced me to get back to takin' photos

warped dome
#

I finished the base game with all endings back whenn it launnched, but i havent played properly since 1.5

#

idk whats new in 2.0

#

must be some cool shit

red reef
#

there is new content

#

new people to like and to hate πŸ˜„

nimble basin
#

I just started a new playthru last week

#

I talked with Dex, then just started taking more photos

red reef
#

hahaha fair

nimble basin
#

😎

warped dome
#

I want FSR 3

#

in cp

#

There is no news of that?

nimble basin
#

I'll get back to it tho, it does feel a lot better

warped dome
#

My ass has AMD

nimble basin
#

sadge

warped dome
#

And i want to play with path tracing

#

because i take all my photos with it

#

i can't look back to rt

nimble basin
#

Did you ever figure out what was bustin' your IGCS?

warped dome
#

No

#

its still busted

nimble basin
#

fuuuuuuk

warped dome
#

Luckly my vp army got me covered for teasers

nimble basin
#

My game crashes when I turn on rt even tho it supports it

#

idk what's worse

warped dome
red reef
#

mine occasionally crashes when I have RT and PT on...

nimble basin
#

Large sad

warped dome
#

Large sad lmaooo

nimble basin
#

big gulp of sad

red reef
#

yeah but it can look so good

#

just look at his hair and beard

#

(on the second pic)

nimble basin
#

tbh even if I could use it I'd only have about 10 fps lmfao

red reef
#

that's fine.

#

Slideshows are good enough for pictures lmao

nimble basin
#

It do be vibin', I may have to figure it out then

#

Probably need to slow down and just finish working on my lil SCAR tho, I wanna do everything at once, like always cat_zoom

warped dome
#

oh wait there's like multiple fails

#

tf is going on with these

nimble basin
#

wot

warped dome
#

there are significant fails with balaclavas, tf is going on

#

good thing i checked

nimble basin
#

rip

red reef
warped dome
#

I don't have the entry

#

for this variant

red reef
#

yeah πŸ˜„

warped dome
#

overridden colors dont seem to work very well in blender

#

this is supposed to be all very black

red reef
#

uhh, did you reexport the materials?

warped dome
#

yah, i did my changes, deleted the generated material json and exported

red reef
#

hmmm ok

warped dome
#

it did the same with the overrides in my helmet too

#

ah well

#

ill just paint

#

with black

#

hm dats weird even the standard black colors have weird tints

red reef
#

in Blender? Ignore it

warped dome
#

I'll take them as is and edit in PS, not gonna waste time with blender

#

ik ps much beter

warped dome
#

i took the last few ingame

#

this was too much mess

warped dome
#

I am losing my mind with my shop, some prices are not the ones I put in reds file

#

Is there a limit of items?

#

The problems start at around the 1k lines

red reef
#

I don't think so, but I always put my stuff at price 1, so IDK πŸ˜‚

warped dome
#

I am losing it

#

I deleted half my shop and the prices are still fucked

#

Where is the damn mistake

#

I checked this 3 times yesterday

red reef
warped dome
#

I redid the whole thing and it fixed itself

#

I am very pissed rn idk what was wrong with it in the first place

#

Because you know, the math checked out

red reef
#

yeah... it be like that HideThePain

warped dome

Final teaser I'm going to show, this is part of the message for my vp-ers. Now comes my favorite part, I get to dm people for previews blushy
You shall see the rest and the mod itself on release date smirk

# warped dome Final teaser I'm going to show, this is part of the message for my vp-ers. Now c...

Hey mate, sorry if sound rude coming out of the blue like this, especially since I'm basically just another drop in the sea, you don't know me, and there people way more known and talented than me in this community, but I've discovered this project literally just yesterday, I read some of the stuff that was posted here and I immediately fell in love with it as I've been craving a mod like this for months. So, even tho my instinct is screaming not to send this message because I fear I'm being way too much intrusive, I just gotta ask, is there any chance I can jump in on the project and pheraps get preview access? I'm just super excited that such a project is being developed and I'd be even more excited to contribute to it, even with the smallest effort, whether it be actual dev stuff, or even promotional pictures.

#

Again sorry for the intrusivness, I'm just a big fan of this effort, and also I want to make it very clear that you're obviously the boss here, I'll respect whatever decision you're gonna make

warped dome
steel coral
warped dome
#

VP stands for virtual photographer, basically people that take screenshots ingame. Dat is why I asked if you're one, preview access is for people who take screenshots that I use on modpage. I haven't seen any of yours anywhere, so dats why that's the first thing to ask

steel coral
warped dome
#

Well, I also don't want to sound rude, but if you haven't shared anything anywhere yet and want to get in the preview release phase, how can I know this request is legitimate

#

I share mods for previews only to people I trust and active VP-ers

red reef
#

ah, the prisoners' dilemma of being new πŸ˜„

steel coral
red reef
#

I can vouch for them being new πŸ˜„ I've seen their face around the next few days. Not that that'll help anyone

warped dome
#

Look

steel coral
warped dome
#

My gut tells me that you don't have any ill intentions, however, I have people who are also not exactly new, they posted some shots before, and asked me for preview access to which I denied for the same reasons - not much activity in the vp community or haven't seen them around too often.

The people I allow to take previews for me are based mostly upon trust and skill.
If they've been a vp-er for me for a long time, of course they get access. If it's someone new asking for access but they're an experienced vp-er with social media accounts where i can see their works, they also get access. If they're people that come recommended from people I know, they also get access. If they're people I have seen active in the modding community and interacted with me before, they also get access.
There is nothing personal about this, it's just that you don't qualify in any of these categories. It also wouldn't be fair to give you access and not to the people I denied for similar reason, so that's why I'd prefer if you'd just wait for the official release which will be next weekend

steel coral
# warped dome My gut tells me that you don't have any ill intentions, however, I have people w...

I totally get it, it sounds perfectly reasonable, and even if it didn't, it would still be fair because you're the one in charge: your work, your rules! Hey who knows, maybe if I were in your shoes I'd have done the same haha. Even tho I'd love to show you my skills and the stuff I wanted to make to get this thing working, I am indeed, still a nobody. I don't even like social media or being very public about my things, I'm just a hobbyist who loves his little bubble of things and helping people whenever there's the chance to, so you're also right that I'm not technically an artist.

Nevertheless I gotta thank you for your time, allowing my intrusiveness, and even considering my proposal, so sincerely, thank you!

red reef
steel coral
warped dome
#

As a matter of fact I didn't share any of my shots in the first few weeks either

#

Of starting vp

#

But you do need some public vp history to have a chance to get into preview stages of mods

Well, here is another thing I want to say, once again a trust thing, if you never shared anything before yet, how can I know the pics you show me are actually yours. Like again, nothing personal, but I've been hit multiple time with the usual scam artists who share work of others claiming it's theirs and they want me to comission them for some idk 2d cartoon art whatever thingy hhsdgafkekbutHD
I do see some activity from you on this server so you do look very much trustworthy , but the same points I said above about vp still apply

#

@red reef Since it's gonna take time till you notice the comment on your shurkien mod, you uploaded the projects files not the mod itself hypermadladhypermadladhypermadlad

Hey Mana, the following situation is presented:
I have custom hair bangs for my helmet when the balaclava is not worn, but how do I make DA axl load the correct CC hair color that a player is using. Like automatically have the bangs use the same hair color as the one player using

red reef
#

{haircolor} or so as appearance? it's documented somewhere

warped dome
#

There is this

#

Like, to give you a better understanding of the problem

#

i have an adjusted mesh, which i load and fuse together in ent

#

What am i supposed to put in meshAppearance

#

Because from this documentation, assuming that it works the same as usual property interpolation

#

Actually i dont even know how to explain this lmao hhsdgafkekbutHD

#

I think i should ask in uhhh psiberstuff or archivexl?

red reef
#

But IDK if psi has changed it

warped dome
#

I try this rn

#

yah it is not that

red reef
#

then it's #psiberstuff

#

feel free to @Β me with the solution

#

because I vaguely recall this changing with dynamic variants, but not sure to what

warped dome
#

waittttttt i got it

#

Looks like it's *{hair_color}

#

with this *

#

Thannks for help love

#

I actually still don't understand the full logic behind DA axl

#

don't know why this * sometimes is needed

#

and sometimes not

red reef
#
  • means "interpolate here"
#

no * => AXL leaves it alone

warped dome
red reef
warped dome
#

You are supposed to msg me to send you the mod

nimble basin
warped dome
#

Then why didnt you message

nimble basin
#

I said I wanted to already :o I didn't realize you were waiting for me

warped dome
#

I forgot

warped dome
#

Update: I am pretty sure I broke my previews record, my folder shows over 100 pictures from my vp-ers lHmadsdf

#

And it's nnot even done

nimble basin
#

so sick

warped dome
#

I am so happy

nimble basin
#

You should be, this thing is siccc

#

My ability to come up with ideas for photos tho, not so sick

warped dome
#

if you do, preferably do verticals since the carousel will be filled to the brim

#

I can merge multiple verticals in one shot

#

and dont forget what i said about tag

nimble basin
#

I will not forgor, and I'll do both

#

I kinda wanted to run through a photoshop tutorial real quick to enhance my stuff, but I don't think I rly have the time

red reef
#

I don't think anyone's gonna look at all those tbh

nimble basin
#

I probably would honestly, but I am a lil speschul

red reef
#

I've talked to several people who go on Nexus to download mods and not as part of a community or anything, and they're all annoyed that instead of a proper preview of what variants they can download, they get "the modders buddies showing off their chars"

nimble basin
#

lmao

red reef
#

And yeah, I see the point XD I almost never look at these

nimble basin
#

I can see that, I suppose that doesn't bother me much because I like to take photographs. I go through so many just to get ideas, see what I can do to improve my photos, see what gear goes with the item, etc.

#

If I wasn't concered with that though, I could see myself spending less time peeping

red reef
#

I mean, if it brings you joy, that's A-OK and I endorse collecting awesome shots πŸ˜„

#

this was just supposed to be a heads-up that the target audience would probably be happier if you just uploaded the preview icons lmao

nimble basin
#

I have a reference folder of people's stuff from the screenies channel u_u

#

I thought he usually put one in the description

warped dome
#

I have a dedicated shot showing all variants

red reef
#

Good, good u_U

warped dome
#

Plus I keep a consistent color palette across my mods so everyone who downloaded before knows what to expect

nimble basin
#

Speaking of screenies

warped dome
nimble basin
#

I know you can enable an option to let you use some photomode poses with npcs, but is there a way to do that the other way around?

warped dome
#

I get asked questions for outfits used in pics even at the end of carousel

red reef
#

Fair πŸ™‚

warped dome
nimble basin
#

Sad

red reef
#

but yeah, I try to always include this kind of pictures (unless I'm too lazy)

#

for the shuriken it was just my template tough πŸ˜‚

nimble basin
#

sheee

#

Are those real?

red reef
#

Yeah

nimble basin
#

That's very sick

red reef
#

they're, like, historically accurate

nimble basin
#

also makes my hand hurt just looking

red reef
#

I had to do a lot of digging >.<

nimble basin
#

I thought they were just creative designs, but then I saw the names and was like hmmm

#

seems like someone did some research

red reef
#

I'm obsessive-compulsive with stuff like that

#

it's no joke, I spent four weeks on libgen reading academic papers about feudal Japan until I understood Takemura in the Devil ending

nimble basin
#

based

red reef
#

also somewhat annoying lmao

nimble basin
#

I'll bet, seems to have turned out nicely though :>

red reef
#

Sure did.

#

I'm still kinda laughing about the fact that I literally travelled to Japan and it's all Arasaka's fault

nimble basin
#

How'd you like it?

red reef
#

I loved it

#

If someone had offered me to make my house and my rent go away and I could work remote, I would at least have thought thrice

nimble basin
#

smh, if I ever go it's gonna be all your fault

red reef
#

11/10, can recommend

#

we were in a village that was so tiny that it had fucking deer at the bus stop (I kid you not, but it didn't get into the bus), and they had 5g coverage

nimble basin
#

Did you find any favorite foods? That'd probably be my first order of business lmao

red reef
#

I really liked the udon with bonito flakes from 7/11 gen_crylaugh

#

they were so good

nimble basin
#

Asian convenience stores do go quite hard, I guess it's the same there haha

red reef
#

yeahhhh

#

the ones on the far right

nimble basin
#

extra THICK

red reef
#

and I had excellent ramen with fish broth, and okonomiyaki to die for

nimble basin
red reef
#

I can probably find the okonomiyaki place on Google πŸ˜„

#

it was somewhere in shibuya

red reef
#

the prettiest previews I made are the ones for the Netrunner suits

#

but damn they were a lot of work lmao

nimble basin
#

verigooooord

#

Oh, I've seen Merku post some of those before, didn't realize that was the bodysuit used

red reef
#

they go so nicely with the modular armour

nimble basin
#

I'm tempted

#

my creative juices are finally flowing a little for this helm tho, idk why im having trouble with ideas

#

Need to work on that shot a bit more but I like where it's goin

red reef
#

Getting real "join the Empire, they said" vibes at Endor lmao

nimble basin
#

They are doing their collective parts

nimble basin
#

ty

#

but pls dont use that im not done

#

lmao

warped dome
#

ill wait for the tagged pic

nimble basin
#

How would ya'll go about adding a light to a face in PS? Like from a flashlight

red reef
#

difficult

nimble basin
red reef
#

I'd duplicate the layer, set its blending mode to screen, then fuck around with layer masks

warped dome
#

Ideally you've done that ingame

#

You can't really properly add "light" in photoshop

#

unless you're real good

#

If you were to light up a flat 2D surface, yes that'd be better

#

but a face

nimble basin
#

Hmmmmmmmm

warped dome
nimble basin
#

Is there any way to get more oval shaped lights in IGCS?

red reef
#

spawn spots, then angle them? πŸ˜„

nimble basin
#

I'm not sure if that would work with this, hm....

#

I guess lack the skill to do this but I'm very committed

red reef
#

what exactly do you want to achieve?

nimble basin
#

I was trying to ask without spoiling the photo lmao, but specifically, I'm trying to get this effect

red reef
#

you want the eye area to be lighter?

nimble basin
#

I'd like the eye area to glow from the goggles

#

yes

red reef
#

OK, then what I'd do is, I would first of all duplicate the entire layer

#

then I would try to lighten up the eye area as much as I can with PS's Edit -> Adjust.... tools

nimble basin
red reef
#

then I'd play around with Blending Mode: Screen and maybe Overlay (depending on light colour) to stack that further. I want a completely overexposed version of the same screenshot, as bright as I can make it without getting artifacts or looking shitty

#

then, I would duplicate all these layers and merge them down, so that I have one layer

#

I'd chuck that one into a folder and put a layer mask on the folder so that it will only affect the general area of the eye

#

Then, I would create a bunch of more duplicates and play around with Gaussian Blur, blending modes and opacity

#

e.g., Gaussian Blur 1 on the entire image, duplicate four times, move each duplicate 1 pixel off the original coordinates

#

maybe merge the whole shit down again and use that one as a screen layer with low opacity, or something like that

#

via layer masks and blocking, you can also make parts of your final circle more or less pronounced

nimble basin
#

Hmmmmmmm

see how the light bounces a bit from the eye socket

nimble basin
#

yes yes

red reef
#

and how there's a small cast shadow on the inside of the eye

nimble basin
#

that's the stuff that's gonna be difficult?

red reef
#

ish

#

you can just fuck around on the layer masks

#

(which you can also use blur on)

nimble basin
#

I seeee

red reef
#

the advantage of that approach is that you aren't working destructively

#

you can yeet the layer mask and all of your original layer will still be there

#

also @warped dome I wanna make a custom AMM outfit for Goro with your mod as a dependency but I'm too laaaaazy

nimble basin
#

I appreciate ya'lls assistance

#

I may file that away for later and just suffer with the spotlights lmao, I'm a literal caveman in photoshop right now

#

Though I did attempt the tips you gave earlier for helping a character stand out from the background

#

If you spawn a spotlight and make it long and narrow so that it only shines on the eye in a circle, you can take the same screenshot twice

#

once with the spotlight on and once with the spotlight off

#

then you put both in the same photoshop document, the one with the light on top, and you can block out parts

warped dome
nimble basin
#

Can you unlazy myself for me

warped dome

AMM like public one?

nimble basin

im too lazy

Its wednesday my dudes, and ive done jackshit with my modpage

#

Huh? No, boxer doesn't count XD

warped dome
#

I mean if you don't mind the amount of crap you have to deal with inside my mods, sure

#

My mods are NOT npv friendly

red reef
#

I would've linked to your stuff as a dependency rather than unbundling, so I would just have to find the correct mesh files πŸ˜„

warped dome
#

Ah sure i guess that's one way

#

Yeah custom pathing my stuff is uhmmmmmmm uhhhhhh

red reef
#

Unless I'd have to refit for him, then it might make more sense to outright include it, but downloads

#

(and the mod is awesome, so people might as well install it lmao)

#

I'd have asked perms in that case anyway, I assumed that you wouldn't mind the hard dependency case πŸ˜‚

warped dome
#

yah sure use them

#

i have permission things in each modpage

#

oh ye i did actual say

#

must ask for public mods

red reef
#

yeah, but only if I include assets

#

if I just link them, then that's not including

#

as in "this thing will not show up unless you have $mod installed"

warped dome
#

i mean, i'd allow by default but i want to see where the assets are reuploaded

red reef
#

haha, fair

warped dome

you can do whateves you want

I can port everything

yes

But idk how to actually rip them

nimble basin

I wasn't mentioning it because of ethics

#

I may have a model

warped dome

fallout 4 is full of activision models

#

since idk, 8 years idk

nimble basin
#

True but, lmao

warped dome
#

but idk how to rip them

red reef
#

they're a huge corporation

warped dome
#

you gotta teach

#

or rip them yourself and send me

#

dont have any cod game

red reef
#

even if "stealing" digital assets was a thing, they had it coming

nimble basin
#

Teach you how to find models that people have already ripped?

warped dome
nimble basin
#

Maybe my dream can come true then

red reef
#

this website has a bunch of sources at the beginning

warped dome
#

na na, i meant tools to rip them from the cod games

#

as soon as the model is in blender

#

the its easy going (hopefully)

red reef
#

ninjaripper

#

but someone will have ripped them already, and the sources are on the wiki page I linked

this is prop guide

random sippet from one of my stories:

In the fast AV, the trip from Tōkyō to Ōsaka takes twenty minutes. But that one’s too small for the bike, and they want to drive across the country for an hour or two, so they take the tactical transport, which can deploy them anywhere.

But it doesn’t, since they stick to the roads. Sometimes, they drive up and down the slopes of mountains, the ride leaning into the bends like a cat into a caress. Sometimes, they find a highway and drive fast, weaving past the other traffic on their high-priority road pass while Papa flies overhead. Despite the early hour β€” by her mom’s standard β€” it’s already hot, but the windstream around them is like β€˜ganic air conditioning.

When they are done, they wait for an empty stretch of road before her father swoops down and lowers the loading ramp to let Mama drive straight into the loading bay: killing the engine before she’s even cleared the ramp, braking hard. The motorbike skids to a stop between the yellow lines on the floor, and for a few heartbeats, it’s quiet except for the ramp and the AV.
(Because the 5yo needs to learn how to do a hot evac)

That shot is HOT

perhaps someone will make actual chopper mechanics one day who knows

I think one of the more recent updates broked it

Why was it never updated? That could be a great framework

LTBF has a dll, so it needs to recompile for each game version

but it's a pain in the ass to update

Like hair strands going all over the place

I add all my effects in PS

But that means a custom hair mode, pain

red reef

true that, but I'd have no idea how to accomplish that gen_crylaugh

#

yeah

nimble basin

I used wimbdy for it, but it's kinda hard to play with

As a matter of fact I wanted to get into some hair modding, but then I realized it is hair modding and I was like skulldskulldskulld

As a part of my degree in computer science, I once gave a graded presentation with the title of (I kid you not) "Why Blender sucks"

warped dome
#

I can model a cube (I spawn it)

nimble basin
#

lmao

red reef
#

it was much worse 15 years ago

#

but the UI and UX have been designed by people whose knees bend backwards

nimble basin
#

gimp would like to have a word

warped dome
#

lmao yes

warped dome
#

As a frontend dev, I can tell you, old UIs suck big time

red reef
warped dome
#

You look at the UIs, you get lost

steel coral
#

I'm not saying I find it great, I just never had any major complaint (probably cuz I only ever used 1% of it but that doesn't count)

red reef
# steel coral Why's that?

Open up Blender and spawn a cube. Then, try to colour both halves of the cube with different colours. No Google

nimble basin
#

It is so bad, and I'm even worse so it's double awful

red reef
#

assume no prior knowledge

warped dome
nimble basin
#

I can move the 3D cursor

#

how close does that get me to painting

red reef
#

I didn't know how to do that for 2 years...

nimble basin
#

how

#

did you survive

steel coral
red reef
#

they changed the default interface

#

and I started actually using it by the time they had just changed that

#

so all guides and their official documentation were like "just move it like taht!!!"

#

which didn't work

Also, I just found this:

β€œWill you tell me a story?”

β€œOf course.” Papa's eyes light up when she takes his offered hand. β€œWhat do you want to hear?”

β€œHow Momotarō infiltrated the Militech facility!”

He nods, making himself comfortable. β€œOn the way to Onigashima,” he begins, β€œthe dog sniffed out a trail of CHOOH-2 in the underbrush…”

The monkey is just hacking the mainframe by the time Mama joins them, slipping quietly on the chair next to Kazuki and putting her arms around her. She manages to keep quiet until the Oni reinforcements arrive, but that’s okay: her interruptions make the story less exciting, but a thousand times funnier.

the way to have a secure facility:

  • you need two employees

38 processed screenshots already and I more thann twice that left to process

no, it's cool!

#

maybe you could even throw another Gauss Blur over it?

nimble basin
#

I can give it a shot!

red reef

if you put that into a folder, you can put a precise layer mask about the upper part of it

and then blur the shit out of the layer below

okay maybe not

do you want me to take a stab at it with PS?

can you give me the high-resolution thing via imgur or so?

Kinda excited to do this last one (if it works)

Also need to figure out how to draw ropes lmao

in ps?

try the pen tool

well

#

coincidence has it that I just published

I was thinking of make some ropes in blender for a similar shot

140 pics maybe 150

Situation is pretty grim

I'm expecting more pics

I merged a lot already

I'm kinda excited to see what ppl do with it

warped dome
#

Up to 90 processed previews

#

Oh man

#

The previews are fire trust me

#

Like everyone has their skill level, but everyone came with sick outfits

nimble basin
#

very good

warped dome
#

Got the thumbnail done, and 6 modpage elements as well as the mini banner

#

One more mandatory element pending and then I'll see if I can add some new ones since I got so many pics

nimble basin
#

Hell yeeeeeeee

warped dome
#

But the text is not done

nimble basin
#

Is that something I can assist with?

warped dome
#

There is nothing you can do

warped dome
#

You see how my other mod pages are made

#

Need to do text like that but there's more stuff I need to say

#

I'll do tomorrow

nimble basin
#

Alright mon

warped dome
#

If you want to truly assist then I'll have a small job for you after release lHmadsdf

warped dome
#

Just like my previous mod, inevitably this one as well will get 60% of comments asking for what outfit in picture x

#

People will answer

#

Either me, my vpers or other nexus users

nimble basin
#

o

#

I can do this

warped dome
#

Nah your job would be much simpler

#

See on my accessories

#

On person collected all the things for outfits used

#

And put it one post

#

Like, the ones answered not every shot jeez)))

#

And I pinned that post

#

That could be you now

nimble basin
#

I'm down for it

#

Just crawling thru the posts for the stuff people have asked for and compiling it all into one message?

warped dome
#

Yeah but it's. Not that bad as you may think

#

The bulk of the comments will be in 24h since release

#

You don't have to go and search for mods used in shots

#

If somebody asked, and someone answered, you can put it in the post

#

If no answer, too bad lmao

#

You need to start your post with big massive text

#

Biggest font

#

"mods used in pictures"

#

Cuz man

nimble basin
#

Mmmm I see I see

#

Reading is hard

#

yes

#

I tell you these nexus users are so blind

#

Last mod I put girls in bikini

#

To catch their attention to the post with mod links

#

It was that bad

#

Legit just go see last mod pinned post lHmadsdf

nimble basin
#

Okay, big text, and semi-nude men

#

this is not a job, this is just fun

warped dome
#

I'll make the bikini girls shot again if they miss your post

You just put the text

and thanks cat_uwu

you can create an UV map, for a shape like this it'll be easy

It was for an entire vehicle hidethepain

I was just finishing a small part of it

I found something UV mapped tho so it's cool

you can try that, just add any undefined trait

find an item with stats bonuses, use tweakdb editor thing in CET to find it and scan the stuff in its entry

you want the tags in there and Items.entry

tags go in yaml like this

dats it

Ok cool thank you 😊

can you put on wiki?

isnt this there already? it should be in tweakdb on cet?

its a tweakxl thing i believe

#

OK, I didn't look there πŸ˜‚

#

stuff is too scattered... <sighs>

warped dome
#

but its like

#

i learned it from another person

#

well i actually figured it out myself by looking at another mod ahahhaa

red reef
#

would be great if you could add it to the tweak section of the yellow wiki somewhere, and maybe link it to the equipment page?

warped dome
#

you must remind me of this

#

yellow wiki ah yes

#

we have different genders of wikis for cp
