(P5R PC) Kasumi as Protagonist

[short spade]

yeah i just wasn’t sure if tbl merging worked with additional ones in configs

i’ll send you over a clean one with just my edits then

just the persona stuff in there

[kindred comet]

thanks!

[supple moat]

where do I place them ? Would love to test 'em out

[short spade]

i would probably just wait for wisteria to integrate it properly into the main mod cause dropping it in would overwrite the main visual tbl

[supple moat]

alrighty :3

meanwhile I'm also waiting for the missing lines for 'em

[short spade]

ive included the persona voice lines and also replaced arsene’s voice but i imagine they’ll need to go in the separate voice patch by @open gull

[supple moat]

Awww, that's awesome ^^

Now Futaba just needs to stop calling me joker o3o

Downloaded the new update but still not working, which is weird because I know it used to work lol

[supple moat]

I'm sorry for the late ping but here's the umbrella animation from the "latest" beta that got released here.
Kept forgetting to post it as a comparison. ☠️

[sinful kiln]

her umbrella been slightly titled to the side is giving psychic damage

not literally unplayable but it bug me a little

[bronze finch]

slightly? 😭

[sinful kiln]

English is not my first language so if i said something wrong i apologize

[bronze finch]

no no you're good. I just think it's a little bit more than slightly is all

[kindred comet]

idk why it's rotated but I assume it was probably done to prevent some kind of issue

[short spade]

i recall the umbrella clipped through her face until i rotated it

granted i didn’t spend a lot of time tweaking it since it’s seen so rarely

[kindred comet]

tbf it did look kinda slanted to begin with

[short spade]

yeah i think it’s at basically the same angle

[kindred comet]

well ill try looking into tweaking it later today, no guarantees though since positioning items like this is really annoying

[kindred comet]

its working for me

make sure the voice patch is on 3.0.2, the config option is enabled, and the voice mod is below any dialogue mods

[bronze finch]

Hang on isn’t ||Kasumi’s hair brown|| in all the cutscenes of her?

[kindred comet]

yeah

what about it

actually wait

which kasumi

real kasumi or sumire

[bronze finch]

Reprimand me if this is a stupid question, but shouldn’t her hair also be changed since she’s the mc of the mod?

Or is P5 a bitch to do those kinds of edits in

[kindred comet]

huh

[balmy scarab]

why should her hair be changed?

[sonic finch]

Try Zylvos' story overhaul when it comes out

[kindred comet]

the main mod (my mod) doesnt have any story relevance, its purely visiual - rose & violet (zylvos's) has all the story stuff

[supple moat]

Someone's working on a mod called Rose and Violet which gives the MC brownish hair for Kasumi while sumire stays red

[kindred comet]

including the real™️ kasumi

[balmy scarab]

It's an extension of this mod i think

[supple moat]

It is ^^

[kindred comet]

[bronze finch]

I see.
I’ve just seen both mods be talked about in this thread. Does Zylvos have a separate thread?

[kindred comet]

not yet, theyre just using this thread for now

[balmy scarab]

I really think you should make a discord server for both maybe

[kindred comet]

i did check and futaba does sometimes say joker (like when your health is low) so the config option is working at least

[balmy scarab]

As it's a struggle for newer players to join the p modding server and then look for a thread in this specific channel

Compared to just joining a single server

[kindred comet]

i could but i really dont want to manage a public discord server

[balmy scarab]

And stuff doesn't need to be condensed into a single channel

[supple moat]

Am stupid.. I placed the voice mod above all other kasumi mods.. Placed it at the bottom and it works now.
Thank you very much for the tip! :3

[balmy scarab]

I can help you moderate?

[kindred comet]

yw!

[balmy scarab]

I'm bored these days anyway lmao

[bronze finch]

Tbh I’d be down to join a discord for it too

[balmy scarab]

I mean managing a server isn't all that hard these days tbh

[kindred comet]

i mean maybe but i would still have to manage it, i just dont see much benefit in it tbh

[bronze finch]

Talking in a thread feels icky because it feels like only super important things should be said so things are searchable

[supple moat]

Now I just need to figure out why my akechi speaks in japanese in battle while everyone else is english :x

[balmy scarab]

XD

[kindred comet]

well its not that managing a server is hard, ive managed very large servers before

i just dont wanna :P

thread is fine for now

[balmy scarab]

k k

[kindred comet]

i dont really need more channels

[supple moat]

am using the english voice btw, so I'm really confused xD

[sonic finch]

ngl that seems like something Akechi would do just to piss people off

[kindred comet]

he's in english for me so idk whats going on there

[balmy scarab]

MS Store modding before april be like

[kindred comet]

@open gull btw it might be good to consider moving the navi patch to use BMD emulator, i can update the config to support it

[balmy scarab]

when you had to dump games with the uwp dumper because of the trustedinstaller protections on the ms store game files

[bronze finch]

Oh cool Zylvos’ mod changes it. That’s all I needed to know, neato mosquito

[supple moat]

am looking forward to it since I really liked the changes he(?) made :3

[balmy scarab]

I appreciate any mod that deals with event editing

Idk how hard it is in Persona 5 but it's hard af in Persona 3 Reload

[bronze finch]

:rirurinworship:
-# yeah ik I don’t have nitro

[balmy scarab]

Hard is an understatement tbh

rirurinworship

[supple moat]

Yeeeeeeee, makes the game a whole new experience if its well written :3

There used to be another story overhaul mod which got abandoned, replaced Sumi with Ren 'n such.
Was quite interesting ^^

[kindred comet]

tbf reload has an actual visual editor it seems, its just that almost everything crashes UE

[balmy scarab]

ya it does have a visual editor

[kindred comet]

with p5 it used to be json command hell

[balmy scarab]

But sadly you can't test everything in it

[kindred comet]

but now we have evtui which makes it much, much more tolerable

[balmy scarab]

And other than that you can't actually test it ingame yet

Because afaik the tools to actually add the events ingame haven't been released yet

i might be wrong

And UE crashing so much makes it much more worse tbh

[bronze finch]

So the problem with 3R is that the events don’t properly hook and crash?

Anyway, not to get off topic, glad that y’all working on 5 have got it working

[balmy scarab]

Main issue is you gotta recreate a lot of stuff on the P3R side of things

It will get easier as people slowly recreate stuff and it's added to Rirurin's project

That's why on the github repo it recommends that u install the project with git

[kindred comet]

Thank ajda, I DEF would not have been able to do that akechi edit without evtui

it wouldnt have been impossible but my brain melts whenever i try to edit an evt json

[balmy scarab]

I think the easiest game to do this by far out of the 3 major persona games is persona 3 portable

[kindred comet]

p3p is kinda cheating though

since its literally just a VN

[balmy scarab]

I literally started modding p3p and the first thing i did was edit events

VN?

[kindred comet]

same

[balmy scarab]

Video Novel?

[kindred comet]

visual novel

[balmy scarab]

ohh

[kindred comet]

persona 3 and onward are basically just 3d visual novels tbh but p3p is a literal VN

[balmy scarab]

Another fair point

Wait one sec

i gotta check something

[kindred comet]

p3p events are easy to edit theyre just kinda annoying since you need to edit the bf and stuff

its nothing hard but its all things that could be streamlined for a better editing experience

[balmy scarab]

ok you can't actually use all the available tags in the flowscripts if you use FEmulator

which is sadly recommended to use

[kindred comet]

[balmy scarab]

because the AST libraries for FEmulator are outdated

[kindred comet]

im hoping something is figured out for that long term, it kinda defeats the purpose of using any of the emulators

[balmy scarab]

So to actually use some tags with FEmulator you need to copy over the newer libraries to FEmulator

[balmy scarab]

It's not that hard to do

Just change the submodule to target the actual AST repository

Instead of AnimatedSwine's fork

[kindred comet]

someone should PR that

[balmy scarab]

I tried doing that

[kindred comet]

that is true though but that isnt a long term solution

[balmy scarab]

But for some reason it seemed to be stuck on it

And even worse

I am pretty sure that the newer version of AST uses a different version of .net

So you might need to modify the workflows for building and releasing the mod

[kindred comet]

yeah we'd need a long term solution

it is possible to just keep the short term solution and have someone on pushing updates to correspond with AST updates but it would kind of be a pain

especially with needing to refactor things just for AST

[balmy scarab]

I mean we could try one thing

[kindred comet]

we might need something like unreal atlus script tbh

[balmy scarab]

Maybe make the mod fetch the libraries from Github

[kindred comet]

yeah

[balmy scarab]

it doesn't have multi-language support

Although it's possible

and i have the code ready for that

I'm figuring out how to actually detect the game language

[kindred comet]

ik oceanstuck was looking into it but that was a while ago

[balmy scarab]

I have the code complete

Except for language detection

[kindred comet]

in theory couldnt you grab the language from persona essential's config

at least for now

[balmy scarab]

Persona 3 Reload uses persona essentials?

[kindred comet]

oh no i meant p5

[balmy scarab]

I'm talking about Unreal Atlus Script

[kindred comet]

ohhh

then yeah idk

[balmy scarab]

Pretty sure it's only supported for like P3R and like a few other games probably

AnimatedSwine was working on localisation framework i think

[kindred comet]

i just want an AST library mod for p3p - p5r

[balmy scarab]

I mean there is probably one way to do this

[kindred comet]

sick of having to keep like 2 versions of ast gui 😭

[balmy scarab]

On boot the mod can check if there were any new commits to the libraries

If there was one then it could clone the repo, copy over the newer libraries

But this will be prone to breaking soo not a good idea

[kindred comet]

yeah that could be nice

[balmy scarab]

It's an idea

But not a good one

[kindred comet]

2nd idea would be to just manually maintain a fork of it ig, and make sure it doesnt break

would need active maintainers tho

[balmy scarab]

I mean thats what is happening rn

But that's the issue

[kindred comet]

yeah

[balmy scarab]

It isn't actively maintained

[kindred comet]

but at least there you wouldnt have to update everything else

you would just need to update AST

[balmy scarab]

They currently use AnimatedSwine's fork but they already have a bunch of stuff on their plate

So they aren't able to keep the fork up to date

Btw still waiting for my changes to unreal essentials to be released 😢

So i can actually release my Credits Framework

[untold snow]

Good news! they did

That said BF emu hasn't had an update pushed out yet afaik so until then yeah the libraries are still outdated lol

[balmy scarab]

I've had it ready to release for 2 months at this point XD

[kindred comet]

🥹 🥹 🥹 🥹 🥹 🥹 🥹 🥹 🥹 🥹 🥹 🥹 🥹 🥹 🥹 🥹 🥹 🥹 🥹 🥹 🥹

[balmy scarab]

wait the libraries or the localisation framework stuff?

[kindred comet]

BEGGING FOR AN UPDATE

[balmy scarab]

We will probably get one next year

not to disrespect any of the contributors but releases are really slow tbh

But it's probably a good thing

[untold snow]

I'm not sure about the localisation framework stuff but since that PR uses the main AST repo now the libraries will end up being up to date once a BF emu update actually gets pushed out

[kindred comet]

this is as good as the umbrella's rotation will get, tbf the better solution would be to just edit the item bone rotation in the anim itself but i dont feel like doing that

and its good enough

[astral chasm]

For everything you've done in this mod, it's beyond what was ever imaginable

[kindred comet]

ty!

[opaque creek]

I kinda like how it has a little rotation it adds a bit of extra character

[open gull]

Can do! The patch does already have single voice lines for Cendrillon, Vanadis and Ella (replacing the callouts for Arsene, Satanael and Raoul respectively), but I see you've added an extra. I also see that you've added Cendrillon's cutscene voices. Shall I add 'em to the voice patch? With credit, of course.

[open gull]

Ah alr. Might need a quick pointer on how BMD emulator works to do that, but I'm open to it.

[kindred comet]

I can probably add it as a config option for your mod if you'd like

[kindred comet]

BMD emulator is relatively simple to use, https://github.com/Secre-C/FileEmulationFramework/blob/main/docs/emulators/bmd.md

The only thing is you need to use atlusscriptgui 3.1 or lower when decompiling a bmd for usage with the emulator

at least until the AST libraries update gets pushed

[open gull]

Sure thx! And thx for the pointers!

[kindred comet]

Yw!

It is going to be a little janky having the options split across two mods but there isnt really a better way to handle it, I can't put the audio into the config option for my mod since yours will overwrite it if its below mine (which it probably should be anyway)

oh and by the way @open gull is that equipment and skillset patch mod done? i'd like to include it as config options for the main mod if possible - i would just need clean tbls that dont use mine as a base

tbf i dont think they have to be clean but its probably safer that way

[open gull]

Yep, the equipment and skillset mods are done. As for tbls, I don't suppose there's a way to copy and paste entire sections in 010, since redoing them all individually would be very tedious and I don't know what exactly your tbls change.

[open gull]

Sure, thx! That might be ideal since I think Zylvos' mod still uses Arsene? But I could be mistaken.

[kindred comet]

there should be, just use the 010 template and Ctrl c the area it selects

or right click copy actually

I think the tbls I edited are just limited to visual.tbl but I'm not sure

yeah it's just visual tbl

[open gull]

Ah good to know, thx!

[open gull]

Neither of those mods edit the visual.tbl, so I doubt it'll be an issue.

[kindred comet]

Great, are they up on GB?

[open gull]

Yep!

[kindred comet]

Nice! I'll add them as config options and then release the new test build

[kindred comet]

seems to work, @short spade is the red color scheme intentional?

[tiny storm]

looks sick, make it a cendrillon picaro ver maybe

[kindred comet]

added it as a dropdown config

you can choose which one you like more :)

[open gull]

Oh, I should note that the equipment patch has an alternate version with a gun overhaul (bumps the protag's gun rounds up from 8 to 10 along with a damage nerf for balancing) Essentially, there's a Standard version and a Gun Overhaul version. Feel free to ignore everything else.

[kindred comet]

I'll probably just keep the default one

Unless there's a significant benefit to gun overhaul

Gun Overhaul does sound more broken though since if you get a gun with shock you have more rounds to proc

[tiny storm]

Solo technical down

[open gull]

Ah, that makes sense.

I should note that the stats for gun modifications are adjusted too, including the ones with less rounds.
Namely, some gun mods halve the amount of rounds in favour of other perks. I changed the halved amount from 4 to 5 in the overhaul.

Here's a list of all the changes.

[balmy scarab]

so does bluecendrillon appear now in the last palace's mini-bossfight?

if you enable red cendrillon

[kindred comet]

nah

not tmk anyway

[balmy scarab]

you should make that a feature

[kindred comet]

that would be up to any story overhaul mods

8th test build , hopefully these will be finished soon :)

@open gull BTW here's the persona swap config update for voice patch

this is just for eng but it should be easy to port to jp, just copy the dll over to jp's as well as the folder and empty it if you dont plan to make a jp version of the swap config

and just leave a note somewhere on the mod page saying which jp configs dont work yet

[open gull]

Ah thx!

Just to clarify, should I just copy and paste these into the jp mod directory for it to work?

Asking cuz I tried doing that for the test build of the audio mod I had, and the game didn't boot up.

[kindred comet]

yeah but dont replace the modconfig.json

[open gull]

Ah alr, thx!

[earnest wave]

Hi, im playing with the latest test build, without the joker over sumi mod, and the base mod has arsenes name over party member Cendrillon, is this a bug?

[kindred comet]

whats your mod list?

[earnest wave]

full list

[kindred comet]

seems to be an issue with the new config tbls i added

probably equipment patch

[earnest wave]

yeah i figured as much, because changing cendrillon to arsene is a very specific change

[kindred comet]

@open gull just letting you know equipment patch's tbl renames party member cendrillon for some reason

and additionally it renames arsene to cendrillon

[open gull]

Ack good to know thx! I'll give it a check.

[kindred comet]

okay yeah checked again and it has ella's name in here too

[open gull]

Fixed.

I'll add that fix to gb, thx for pointing it out!

[kindred comet]

thanks!

and np

that did fix it but arsene and raoul are still named ella and cendrillon, also kasumi is named Ren

might be good to just grab a fresh vanilla persona name list/party member name list

this should hopefully fix it

replaced everything with vanilla except these

actually i overwrote the ranged weapons by accident :P

ok this should be fixed

final final name.tbl

[open gull]

Ah whoopsie doopsie, thx for the heads up. Must've used the wrong version of those files by accident.

I take it tbl merging works with name.tbls too?

[kindred comet]

yes, it should work with all tbls

[open gull]

Sweet, thx!

[kindred comet]

all of them work together very nicely

[kindred comet]

Test Build 8 Hotfix 1

• Fixed equipment patch name.tbl including other edits

[short spade]

oh yeah i forgot i took the textures from the beserk variant, figured it complimented the curse skills like that — the config option for that was a nice touch

impressive update all round

[short spade]

of course! happy to contribute

[tiny storm]

quick question, if I enable the violet's personas option, do I disable the cendrillon over arsene mod by happygrinch?

[kindred comet]

yes

[lilac needle]

Dunno if the bug's been fixed in a hotfix but when previewing Ella on the Persona screen trying to rotate her kinda swooshes her around the screen lol

[kindred comet]

she works fine for me

[zealous fjord]

Hmmmm, I could replace Arsène with Red Cendrillon in my mod (you know, Roses are red, Violets are blue). I'm not sure what her name could be (One of Cinderella's sisters? Or Sleeping Beauty = Briar Rose or just Briar). That would require moving those optional files in my mod, adjusting the Name.TBL and changing some dialogues. 👀

[prime orbit]

That'd be really cool

[open gull]

I'll look into updating the patch when I get home. My only reservation is that, aside from the Cendrillon/Vanadis/Ella lines already being used, I also used "Enchant us, Ella!" for the Phantom Show skill unique to Raoul. Bringing it up since you also used the persona attack lines (along with "Show them, Cendrillon" and "Dazzle us, Vanadis") as alt lines for summoning personas. I like those lines, but I personally think they sound more like lines for a persona doing something as opposed to merely being summoned. But I wanted to bounce that off of ya.

[sonic finch]

The one sister who became good in the later Disney sequels was Anastasia Tremaine, could go Anastasia? She started off vain but only wanted to find someone who loved her for herself and was only bad because of Lady Tremaine's upbringing

But I like Briar Rose most

https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/disney/images/f/f8/Profile_-_Anastasia_Tremaine.png

Funnily enough Anastasia was the red-head of the two stepsisters

actually I suppose Anastasia fits the rebel theme well because of the fact she rebelled against Tremaine's upbringing to find love for herself (marrying a baker in the end)

damn now I'm ending up liking both ideas

(for anyone who hasn't seen them, Cinderella 2 and 3 are actually pretty good direct-to-video sequels...)

I'd really love to see a red Cendrillon option

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zjsxFBYifVk

[willow prairie]

for this one, ‘Grimm-Cendrillon’ would be a better name…

also, @open gull
in case you have yunaka’s english voice files from fe engage, we might be able to use it for the mod, should it didn’t conflict with the voice direction

[open gull]

Ohhh! I wouldn't object to that.

I don't have them on hand, but I'll see if I can find anything.

[sonic finch]

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1e6jq069X9zqM7U8Fzwasvwb3MEdDJ_tM

Someone on reddit did a dump of all the voices

Take a look at Brodia Battle, Brodia Base, maaaybe Brodia DLC?

They're all OGG files, luckily the relevant files have Yunaka's name in the filename

[open gull]

Oh perfect thx!

[sonic finch]

https://tenor.com/view/fire-emblem-fire-emblem-engage-yunaka-gif-27462405

[short spade]

this happens because she’s put over satanael and he’s scaled down by the game in the persona menu, i had to scale her up to make her visible at all so that’s probably why she rotates weirdly

[open gull]

Oh! I should note that the Cendrillon patch I did puts Ella over Raoul. It doesn't change Satanael's traits or skills.

[short spade]

i was going to do that too since they’re both supposed to be the third awakening persona but since the game presents raoul as weaker than satanael i just went in order of level

[open gull]

Ah alr.

I went with Vanadis over Satanael on account of Vanadis being a goddess.

Satanael is super OP and has a very different skillset from 'Sumi's personas so I couldn't think of a way to modify his skillset without nerfing him and making him a lot less distinct.

[short spade]

i thought of just swapping out one of his skills for sumi’s masquerade but i think wisteria didn’t really want to deal with skill edits in the main mod

[sonic finch]

if the persona edits get folded into the main mod would the skill edits still be there as seperate? I do get Wisteria not wanting to put skill edits in the main mod but it would be nice to have that progression option

It's kind of a unique challenge to stick to Cendrillon/Ella/Vanadis with their own skills rather than fusion as then you consider your teammates a bit more

like doing P4G with Izanagi only was really fun

cuz then MC can't just be the best at everything

[short spade]

now that the model edits are an optional someone could always just make a smaller addon for the skills

[sonic finch]

Okay gotcha, good to know
it's not an 100% dealbreaker as I could technically just use the mod menu and force learn skills at the right levels but that can be a hassle

[open gull]

I should also note that the voice patch has 'Sumi call out Vanadis' name during the Satanael cutscene.
I kinda thought her delivery of "Vanadis!" had the kind of gravitas that would work for that scene.

[short spade]

i think i only used the cue for summoning ng+ satanael since there seems to be a separate cue for the yaldy scene, i think replacing big boy satanael would be too much of a hassle so didn’t want to touch that

[open gull]

Especially since Satanael has that gun.

[mighty snow]

so there’s nothing we can put vanadis over? shame she’s my favorite out of the 3💔

[zealous fjord]

Yeah, I prefer Cendrillon's sister over Sleeping Beauty.
Given that they've used "Cendrillon" instead of "Cinderella", I assume they are using Charles Perrault version of the fairy tale. He doesn't give a name to the "nice" sister (even in french), so I think I'll go with the name people are familiar with. I'll use the french name "Anastasie" to stay coherent with "Cendrillon" (and probably "Rose" and "Violet").

[sonic finch]

Yeah that makes sense
Then we go from Ella to Tremaine as the third-tier name maybe?

[open gull]

Isn't Tremaine the wicked stepmother???

[zealous fjord]

It's the family's name

[open gull]

Ohh ok.

[sonic finch]

Yeah so they're all so-and-so Tremaine

I think the other one in Disney was Drusilla or something?

it's interesting how Perrault only names the older one who stays evil though

[open gull]

Funnily enough, Lucifer (the namesake for their cat) is already a Persona.

[sonic finch]

Oh yeah true that's hilarious

[open gull]

On a related note, I actually commissioned a piece of Sumire cosplaying as Cinderella once.
https://countjoelcula.tumblr.com/post/766902794553884672/so-i-commissioned-a-second-piece-from-lemaribi#notes

I don't normally commission other artists, but this guy is taking emergency commissions to support a friend's medical bills. Affordable emergency commissions.

[mighty snow]

Beautiful!!

[open gull]

Yea he's a superb artist.

[sonic finch]

Oh wow

[open gull]

Been toying with the idea of writing a Persona + Kingdom Hearts crossover fic, which is where I got the idea.

[short spade]

vanadis is over raoul in the optional in the main mod

[supple moat]

and ella over satanael I assume ?

[short spade]

yep

[supple moat]

alrighty :3

[short spade]

but only the ng+ satanael not the one that appears in the story

[rain tangle]

One thing I noticed with the new test build is that OneCalledJay's bustups appear blurry, especially her thief outfit one

[vagrant sky]

ngl I think it'd be hilarious to have the "Pillage him, SATANAEL" line kept in and change everything else. Like Kasumi has sounded normal throughout the entire game, but randomly at the end, her voice drops like 2 octaves

But that probably wouldn't be a good idea in actuality lol

[sonic finch]

If you want the two octave drop, throw in one of Yunaka's crit quotes in there as a surprise
"Time to finish the job." would go hard

[supple moat]

Do the new voice lines only apply when swapping persona or am I just unlucky ?

[short spade]

only when swapping yeah

[supple moat]

aww, what a shame :x
Thank you regardless ^^

[short spade]

yeah it’s just not really feasible to make the mc call out the way party members do since the skill voice lines and persona call are the same regardless which persona you have equipped

minus specific skills that have their own voice lines but those are persona specific

raoul has phantom show for example that has its own lines so i could’ve put the vanadis’ lines on that too but then there’s nothing like that for arsene or satanael

[kindred comet]

oh huh

had no idea Laura Post voiced Yunaka

I played like an hour of engage and gave up on it 😭

[kindred comet]

oh

okay

Reposting the download link since I posted it fairly late: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1094412112576651314/1347109819823296576/kasumiprotag-testbuild8hotfix1.7z?ex=67caa149&is=67c94fc9&hm=4a0f1fa83044c9737831d5f43098b51c5e351bb6d6e72c7c9873de6f90aa079f&

[kindred comet]

apparently there are some softlock issues with the cendrillon over arsene thing so im going to look into mitigating them

the idea i have rn is to just use a flowscript to add eiha and remove it after its required

and then i can probably just add some random persona to the stock for the fusion tutorial

[kindred comet]

this will only happen when using the skillset config

[kindred comet]

mandrake and pyro jack are added to the players stock during 1st event shown here

[short spade]

oh i was talking earlier about someone making a skill addon i didn’t realise they were already a config mb

pretty cool workaround, but what was the problem with the fusion event i don’t think i heard of that before

[sonic finch]

Cendrillon being a Faith persona changes the expected fusion result to one above the possible level

[kindred comet]

trying to fuse anything with cendrillon would usually make the result a higher level than the protag's level here (5)

[short spade]

ooh i see

nicely handled

[kindred comet]

ty!

it will add duplicates if you somehow already have them but there isn't much i can do about that, much better than just being softlocked here

this can probably be fixed by just reverting cendrillon back to fool, which i might end up doing anyway for consistency

im not sure though

actually yeah for the sake of consistency ill probably just make cendrillon and vanadis fool

here's the fix if anyone wants it for their own mods, place these in FEmulator BF and a dummy file to EN.CPK\SCRIPT\FIELD

it hopefully shouldnt have any localization incompatibilites

since the msg is empty

[short spade]

it feels right for them to be fool but i get it was changed for flavour

[kindred comet]

yeah, my main issue was just inconsistency

realistically violet shouldnt ever be "the faith" here if shes protag

[short spade]

[kindred comet]

Test Build 8 Hotfix 2

• Fixed potential Kamoshida arc softlocks (AoA tutorial and fusion tutorial)
• AoA tutorial will now automatically add and remove Eiha to Cendrillon
• Reverted Protag Cendrillon and Protag Vanadis to fool
• Removed Eiha from Protag's default accessory
  (These only apply to the skillset config)

[gray slate]

so we don’t need the eiha add on anymore?

[unique beacon]

No idea why but leaving the Metaverse crashes the game...?

Or rather Mementos

[kindred comet]

can you provide your modlist

I just checked and it doesn't crash for me, it's probably an issue with one of your mods

I should really mention this somewhere but crashes with this mod are very unlikely, it's all visual with the exception of the gameplay and event configs (which shouldn't crash either way)

so before reporting a crash please verify it's this mod causing it and not something else

[kindred comet]

yes it should not be needed any longer

it was previously bundled with the equipment patch config option anyway but I removed it since it's not required now

[gray slate]

coolio

[mighty snow]

its probably no ng+ requirement for twins boss

if youre playing on ng+ and have that mod still it crashes

or rather soft lock

[open gull]

Ah! You managed to use a flowscript to workaround that issue? Nice!

[open gull]

Oh yeah, I noticed that the Big Bang Challenge still uses Joker's anims, notably with the fist pump at the end. (excuse the quality. file size limits, y'see.)

I'll have a look at 'em later.

The only other anim goof I noticed was in Kawakami's class after I made some infiltration tools.

[kindred comet]

yeah i havent changed any of those

[open gull]

All good, just thought I'd document them.

Btw, would you mind if I add your eiha fix to the existing Cendrillon patch? I'll keep it up as a seperate addon in case any users wanna use Ella over Raoul.

[kindred comet]

sure go ahead

although i already included ella over raoul

or well

it goes cendrillon, vanadis, and ella

[open gull]

Oh! I thought Ella was put over ng+ Satanael.

[kindred comet]

oh sorry i got them mixed up

yeah ella is over ng+ satanael

[open gull]

Ah alr.

Might update the voice patch and my Cendrillon/Ella patch to reflect that once the update drops.
Though I'll keep my own personal testing version of the voice patch as is out of personal preference.

[kindred comet]

hmm im thinking of creating an addon companion mod that just includes a bunch of alternate patches i wont be including in the main mod, it would essentially just be a bunch of config options you can turn off and stuff

[open gull]

Ooo alright!

[kindred comet]

might include some of the equipment stuff like gun overhaul and your ella over raoul

and im open to anything else as well, like maybe a sumire model version of the mod included under the addon mod as an option (wont have full anim support for the hair since i would basically have to add those keyframes to like every gap)

[open gull]

Oh alright!

I should note that Sumire has different animations after the third sem reveal. Notably, her idle pose has her clasp her hands in front of her.

[kindred comet]

yeah i'll probably use those for her field animations

everything else will rely on physics chunk

i'll probably insert keyframes for the field anims and battle anims and leave it at that

wont be baking physics since itd take forever

[open gull]

Ah alright!

[kindred comet]

and physics chunk exists

[open gull]

Ah! I'll have to look into it for future reference so I can get into custom models.

[kindred comet]

yeah physics chunks are pretty nice

p5 physics system isnt super great and there will still likely be clipping but its better than cardboard bones

[open gull]

On a side note, I personally keep the CF costumes in my build in a separate mod for the sake of customising them for personal use. As well as putting the red leotard over the Starlight model, I also changed some of the outfit names.

• Purple Dress - Elegant Dress
• Tiger Print Clothes - Fashion Disaster
• Summer Break Clothes - Sophia Costume
• Blue Leotard - Dazzling Leotard
• Red Leotard - Sakura Leotard (alternatively Rose Leotard)
  Just thought I'd put it out there.

[kindred comet]

nice, i might yoink some of those

oh while im at it @echo thicket are you okay with me including CBT's Kasumi/Sumire costumes in this mod?

btw @open gull can i include that rin costume without her wig in the addon mod?

[open gull]

Sure!

[kindred comet]

ty!

[echo thicket]

who what when where why

[echo thicket]

sure

[kindred comet]

thanks

[echo thicket]

dunno if this ever got answered, but 14 is "recovering from being knocked down" and 15 is the (currently unused) line for Joker being revived, I wanted to implement a "no game over on Joker death" thing but let's just say that the pc port being the way it is made it next to impossible to achieve for the moment

[kindred comet]

that does remind me to fix those voice lines not playing in the voice patch

[echo thicket]

currently unused
well this is partially a lie, it is fully programmed in but there's no way for you to have Joker dead and then have a party member revive them to trigger it

[kindred comet]

nvm i just realized i had the option disabled in cbt's config

it feels so odd that joker doesnt actually say anything when being healed in vanilla

[snow aspen]

That would explain why you didn’t bring that back from EX

[kindred comet]

that was in EX?

[snow aspen]

It was

[kindred comet]

thats really impressive

how even

[snow aspen]

It saved me a few times

Idk it just happens

[kindred comet]

no like how was that even possible

[snow aspen]

I have no idea

[kindred comet]

insane that was pulled off

[snow aspen]

It’s a magic trick and only the magician (being DeathChaos) knows it’s secrets

[echo thicket]

with enough brain damage and determination

[austere stirrup]

some of the tricks that p5ex does to implement features are really funny looking back

[echo thicket]

just make sure you don't inherit my special "passive skill" where everything I touch breaks

[echo thicket]

the fact that it was my first time doing pretty much everything in there didn't help, i.e. first time doing function hooking

[echo thicket]

this is still the greatest mystery of this world

[kindred comet]

LMAO

[snow aspen]

Would that explain why Kasumi doesn’t gain XP?

[echo thicket]

there's a lot of stuff there that just randomly works and then doesn't

[snow aspen]

Parker luck am I right?

[echo thicket]

this comment was prompted by me somehow breaking the Costume Framework API (I have been slowly remaking custom bonus tweaks natively as a Reloaded-II mod instead of a cpp mod loaded by a reloaded mod) which means I can't have a toggle to enable/disable the Costume Framework costumes added

[kindred comet]

what would be the benefit of moving it over to a native r2 mod?

[echo thicket]

well aside from more toggles it'd also reduce a lot of the existing jank, i.e. the config menu is "fake" because the mod actually uses a config.toml file and the config menu in reloaded is just there to make that file

💀

[kindred comet]

i guess that explains why i couldnt just copy my old toml over

[open gull]

I wonder how hard it would be to add voice cues (eg: status ailments, low health lines)

Joker does have some from Tactica which could be used.

[echo thicket]

well, when I made the patch to add stuff Tactica didn't exist

[open gull]

True.

They're used in the Joker over Kasumi test build in this thread, if anyone wants them.

[lean bough]

Uhm. Where? Cause I’ve got the voice patch on and it’s not using her AOA line on her AOA finisher.

[open gull]

Did you make sure to enable this in the config for CBT?

[kindred comet]

you need to enable combat voices as well

[open gull]

Ah, good catch,

[gray slate]

just noticed the weekday announcements.. if those are the ones where joker just randomly says the day then i’m forever thankful

[sonic finch]

Yep they are

[vagrant sky]

yeah I had to turn off the weekday announcements. I can see why they didn't add them originally, as it does get a bit annoying personally when it happens every single day lol. Doubly so when playing as Kasumi

[open gull]

Edited the red leotard model and changed the colour of the blue hair thingamadoo (I don't know what the actual term is) to the colour used in real Kasumi's model for consistency.

[supple moat]

Cendrillon and Vanadis are still Faith personas for me :x

[kindred comet]

they shouldnt be, dismiss them and resummon them from the compendium

[supple moat]

Oh, gonna try that later :3

[unique beacon]

It worked before installing the newest hotfix. I tried with and without:

• Cendrillon and her skills turned on
• Equipment Patch

as I expected me already having a save file some way into the game might mess with it. Mind you I have been playing with a previous hotfix with no issues until I switched over, though I did delete the addons like Cendrillon over Arsene and the Blue Dress Add-on after the crash as well, thinking the new hotfix might break it as the files are included (?). Now I'm wondering if it's a lack of Custom Bonus Tweaks? Not sure it's a dependancy with the newest version.

[kindred comet]

uhh your mod order is very, very messed up

top mods load first, bottom mods load last

[unique beacon]

Will rearrange and report back

[kindred comet]

all of these should be at the top

[unique beacon]

literally been doing it the wrong way round

[kindred comet]

and yeah try using CBT

although i have no idea why it would be crashing upon exit

[cobalt agate]

Would this mod be okay to use in an existing playthrough? idk if it messes anything up if i do that, im sorta newish to modding xD

[kindred comet]

try opening that save in vanilla and seeing if it crashes

[kindred comet]

yeah! it should be fine

[cobalt agate]

Okay thank you c:

[kindred comet]

[unique beacon]

CBT fixed the issue

[kindred comet]

hmm

might be a visual.tbl issue then

i think i used the extended one from cbt as a base

actually no

i think its a shader crash

[short spade]

just cause you mention it, i used the vanilla visual tbl for the persona stuff, would that cause issues?

[kindred comet]

it shouldnt

[short spade]

alright just thought i should check

if by chance you do need or want that to use the cbt tbl, just give me a ping and i can do that

[kindred comet]

will do!

[kindred comet]

yeah it is

i tried redoing the materials for the results screen and it still crashes so ig ill just plop the old one back in

if you have cbt it wont crash due to the invalid shader crash workaround

[kindred comet]

Added this to the addon mod as a config and it seems to work correctly

had to throttle my cpu to like 5% to get the loading icon to even show up 😅

[lilac needle]

Don't these just make her sound like joker lol

[kindred comet]

voice patch replaces the added joker lines with sumi versions

[lilac needle]

Oh do you need to put the voice patch mode over the cbt mod

Man ever since i found out it goes from bottom to top i've gotten so confused lmao

[kindred comet]

yes

put it under cbt mod

any mods you want to overwrite should be at the top

[lilac needle]

Huhh

It was and it didnt work lol

[kindred comet]

cbt?

bcs you want to overwrite cbt's files

[lilac needle]

Oh you mean like

Below cbt

Literally this is what i mean

[kindred comet]

so put cbt at the top and then put the mods whose files you want to overwrite with below cbt

[lilac needle]

It's so confusing 😭

[kindred comet]

its just hard to phrase

[lilac needle]

That makes more sense

Nooope still joker voicelines

Maybe if i delete the voice files in the cbt folder

[lilac needle]

Nah that just silenced her lmao

[bronze depot]

idk if it's possible specifically for your mod, but you can add bonus tweaks as a mod dependency

reloaded will always load it first in that case

[kindred comet]

ive been thinking about making cbt a hard requirement but im not sure

mainly just due to its download size

although tbf this mod is pretty big (and thats just the main mod, not counting the voice patch or addon mod) but still

[kindred comet]

dont delete anything

you shouldnt need to

if your load order is correct and it still doesnt work then idk

[kindred comet]

well since im on the fence about it i guess ill make it a poll

there isnt really a downside to it other than the file size and it adds a lot of very useful features

[lilac needle]

Yeah i figured i had to update cbt lol

That fixed it

[kindred comet]

okay good

[deft lake]

Will cendrillon have a moveset that goes into the end game or will it just be fusion fodder?

[open gull]

Aye nice! I should note that I polished the shape and made a grey version to match the rest of the loading screen. Here's the updated version. (The second one is the greyscale variant.)

[bronze depot]

bonus tweaks might as well be an "essentials" mod at this point tbh. most users probably want/need it installed

[kindred comet]

yeah i agree, just wasnt sure what people thought tbh

[kindred comet]

Awesome, I'll add both to the addon mod

[kindred comet]

her skillset should function similar to other party members iirc

similar to this mod https://gamebanana.com/mods/496914

[deft lake]

Awesome

[kindred comet]

i think the same might apply to raoul/vanadis but im not sure

[open gull]

Here's the list of skills for Cendrillon.
Trait: Veil of Midnight
Innate: Kouha
Level 2: Dia
Level 5: Dazzler
Level 7: Apt Pupil
Level 13: Makouha
Level 22: Kouga
Level 34: Tempest Slash
Level 43: Kougaon
Level 50: Heat Wave
Level 56: Diarahan
Level 62: Makougaon
Level 69: Vorpal Blade
Level 72: Bless Amp
Level 75: Sword Dance
Level 80: Brave Step

As for the Raoul equivalent, Raoul already starts at level 76, so I just swapped the skills and added Ella's unique Masquerade attack.

[kindred comet]

what does veil of midnight do again? i forgot

[deft lake]

Always been one of my biggest gripes with the series that the main persona’s like izanagi are just fodder to be fused away rather than really feeling like your persona

[kindred comet]

same it felt

[deft lake]

I get it since they want to encourage the fusion system but it is annoying

[kindred comet]

wrong fusing arsene away for the tutorial

[open gull]

It increases chances of an ally not being downed when attacked.

[deft lake]

Mhm

[kindred comet]

oh 💀

[open gull]

Ella's trait, Veil of Sunrise, is an upgraded version of that.

[deft lake]

Especially in p5 where arsene is literally your spirit of rebellion, the driving force behind what makes joker be the way he is

[kindred comet]

trait is kinda busted but so is everything else in p5r i guess

[open gull]

Oh btw, which file in the test build is the flowscript that adds Eiha to the aoa tutorial?

[kindred comet]

OptionalModFiles\Gameplay\Skillset\FEmulator\BF\02E9.flow

[open gull]

Ah alr thx!

[kindred comet]

yw, make sure the msg file is kept blank so none of the messages are overwritten

[lilac needle]

Ok soo i updated everything i could and here's the funny thing

Kasumi refers to Vanadise as Ella and to Ella as Vanadise

And Ella's model doesnt even seem to show during battles for some reason

[kindred comet]

voice patch hasn't been updated to support the new config option yet

also ella's model should work fine, i checked myself

[lilac needle]

Hold onn

idk why there's no sound in the video but Ella just doesnt show up lol

[open gull]

Alright, the voice mod is updated.
Turning on the Persona Swap Audio toggle should swap Vanadis + Ella's lines to be consistent with the test build.

I really gotta figure out how to add new toggles. Thinking of making the Cendrillon awakening voices a separate toggle.

[kindred comet]

well i have the source for the audio config up on my github

you can take a look at that or pray ryo's reloaded fork gets merged

[kindred comet]

idk why its not working for you

@lilac needle whats your modlist

[dry igloo]

It really shouldn't have taken me this long to get this done.

This should be all of Joker's safe room animations

[open gull]

Looks good!

Did some tinkering with the visual.tbl and copied Joker's PlayerVisualVariablesA section onto Violet's. Haven't run into any issues so far. The attack anim definitely looks better now tho.

[open gull]

Downloaded the source code and it looks like it requires visual studio to edit? Installed visual studio 2022 and still figuring out what's next.

The only thing I'm trying to do atm is add a seperate toggle for Cendrillon's voice.

[kindred comet]

yeah, you need VS to open the solution

also you should really fork it and clone the repo locally

[kindred comet]

i think i already did this in the build i posted

[open gull]

Ah alr good to know.

[kindred comet]

heres the build again since it got buried

i didnt write out a full changelog but i replaced all of her models with joker

added a config menu and a few other things like that visual.tbl edit

wish thread creators could pin messages

[kindred comet]

also very nice

i'll try and organize something soon so the mod is a bit more organized/easier to contribute to

[open gull]

Made a fork of the voice mod config and tried to open visual studio 2022 to clone it. I seem to have run into an issue.

[kindred comet]

think that has something to do with the path being too long, idk how to fix that :/

[open gull]

Ah alr. I'll try a different file path.

Huh. Ran into the same error even though the file path was C:\Users\NAME\Documents\GitHub\kasumivoicelineconfig

Changed the folder name from kasumivoicelineconfig to kas and that seems to have done the trick.

Now to figure out what the heck I'm doing.

[open gull]

So I got the repository cloned and this thing opened in visual studio. Is this where I do the editing and stuff?
Edit: I don't seem to be able to edit the text. I'm guessing I'm missing a step.

[stray sigil]

How does this look for mod order?

[supple moat]

Decreases the chance of being downed by an attack

Someone already answered, Im stupid..

[open gull]

You're fiiine. It just means your fingers are faster than your eyes.

[astral chasm]

[mighty snow]

But in p4g even if you stuck with izanagi he would’ve been basically maxed out by the 3rd dungeon

I’m pretty stupid I didn’t know how to change my persona back then😭😭

[sonic finch]

P4G Izanagi only is pretty fun tbh
When you get the skill evolution cards from Shuffle Time and then general skill cards from the cafe and whatnot

I almost managed it but sadly needed Black Frost for the Game dungeon
Everything else I never swapped off

[mighty snow]

were you playing on very hard?

[sonic finch]

helps Izanagi's resistances are acc pretty good

[mighty snow]

VERY good

[sonic finch]

Just regular Hard, but I'm gonna go back and do Very Hard sometime and see if I can find a way around the Game dungeon boss issue

[mighty snow]

idk anything in p3 fes and p and p4g that nulls bless and curse is a great persona

[mighty snow]

very hard isn’t hard it’s just grindy and very bs at some times so good luck

[sonic finch]

[zealous fjord]

I removed the ghost in the bathhouse scene with Ann. Before/After:

[open gull]

It's the bathroom ghoooost!

[kindred comet]

oh nice

I had no idea that was even there

[kindred comet]

idk whats going on there but I think you're looking at file diff and not actually editing it

just try closing vs and reopening the solution

[lean bough]

@kindred comet will installing the new test build break my progress potentially?

cause i've been using the Cendrillion over arsene mod and i'm not wanting to break my game.

[kindred comet]

it shouldnt break

[lean bough]

Ok!

[lean bough]

i should have the cendrillion over arsene off right?

[kindred comet]

yes make sure thats off

also that load order looks wrong

make sure all the framework mods, cri, and cbt is at the top

[lean bough]

just did these things actually XD

[kindred comet]

kasumi as protag should be near the bottom

and voice patch should be below it

[lean bough]

i'm doing that just know

now*

this look better? @kindred comet

[kindred comet]

yeah, although persona essentials should be at the very top

[lean bough]

i thought i put it up there

did i not?

[kindred comet]

its near the bottom

right above ai tactics fixes

[lean bough]

I AM A BLIND IDIOT

fixed it

finally

[kindred comet]

also there's a chance she/her joker will cause mod menu not to work so just beware of that, that's not really fixable until mod menu uses flowscript merging

[kindred comet]

looks much better

[lean bough]

i'm just gonna test now

and if it does break it

then amma cook myself and just turn it off

XD

[kindred comet]

that looks good but im not sure what the CBT kasumi compatibility patch is for (or what it does)

i should probably note that any patch mods should not be used with the test builds

unless theyve been updated (like voice patch)

Equipment Patch and Cendrillon over Arsene, although redundant, should be ok (i wouldnt recommend using them though unless you have a specific reason to, it would be better to just use the config options i included)

[lean bough]

@kindred comet for now the mod menu works.

[kindred comet]

[lean bough]

btw Wisteria

considering Raoul is technically a DLC persona you summon from compendium

has the compendium entry been changed then

for the persona changes?

[kindred comet]

i dont think so, i forgot those even existed

[lean bough]

cause Raoul is a DLC persona

meaning you cant naturally get it

unless you compendium summon

so

[kindred comet]

you can

you can use fusion to get dlc personas

[lean bough]

i forgor you could....

ok?

what is the recipe for that anyways?

[kindred comet]

anyways i probably wont change it cuz im lazy

[kindred comet]

check fusion calculator

[lean bough]

just did

[lean bough]

fair enough.

plus it would be a hassle

[mighty snow]

Ella or vanadis is over satanael?😅😅

[lean bough]

cause the compendium would be overridden by you know

[kindred comet]

ella is

[lean bough]

people saving new versions

also wisteria

cause i already had satanael in my ng+

ella just kind

swishes all over the screen

XD

[kindred comet]

?

[lean bough]

also

[kindred comet]

can you record that

[lean bough]

vanadis has Ella's background...

[lean bough]

yeah just lemme get obs up and show you what i mean

ignore the sound of my keyboard and controller

here ya go

also dont mind me being dumb and trying to find satanael instead of ella

@kindred comet

[kindred comet]

OHHH in the compendium

well the first thing is probably a leftover from joecula's mod

im not sure where that is but i'll move it over to ella

and i'll check the compendium ella in a sec

[kindred comet]

its fine for me for some reason

i guess ill note to self that ella is cursed for some people for some reason

does ella appear in battle for you

because if not it sounds like some weird bounding box issue

[lean bough]

Haven’t been in a battle yet

So I can’t say.

[kindred comet]

could you try doing something like a challenge battle and summoning ella

[lean bough]

Let me just go to velvet room rq

[kindred comet]

okay

i found the issue

for some reason visual.tbl isnt merging or loading for you

she swooshes around if the visual.tbl i included isnt loaded

[lean bough]

I was about to show this

[lean bough]

Huh

[kindred comet]

seems like a visual tbl issue

which is weird

[lean bough]

Idk why it’s not working

[kindred comet]

well i narrowed it down at least

oh

i see the issue

actually no i dont

[lean bough]

What is happening then?

[kindred comet]

out of curiosity can you move custom bonus tweaks up in your mod order

place it right below here

then try again

additionally if you could show your custom bonus tweaks config that would be great

[lean bough]

Give me a sec

OMG

Autocorrect

No

[lean bough]

Which bit specifically?

[kindred comet]

honestly all of it

except the color stuff

i kinda get the feeling this is due to the visual.tbl using cbt's but im not sure why that would cause issues??

[lean bough]

here

[kindred comet]

yeah that all looks fine

so i have no idea

just try reopening the game with cbt higher up in the mod list

and seeing if ella still swooshes

[lean bough]

i put it right after script hook now

let see

amma record it

[kindred comet]

im gonna tyr porting the tbl changes back over to a vanilla sized tbl and if that doesnt fix it im not sure what will

[lean bough]

well

lets see now

still swishes

after moving

[kindred comet]

ik

but idk what is hapenning

[kindred comet]

can you go to OptionalModFiles\Gameplay\Personas\CPK\BATTLE\TABLE inside the kasumi as protag mod folder

and replace the visual tbl with this

then reboot the game and see if it fixes it

if that still doesnt work then i have one last idea

[stray sigil]

Oh, I think is a remnant from when I had the old Kasumi Story Overhaul lol

[lean bough]

k

[kindred comet]

oh i see

yeah i would disable it just to be safe

[stray sigil]

But since I'll be using the Violet & Rose mod now, I probably won't need it

Yess

[lean bough]

rebooting now!

[lean bough]

STILL

does not work

still moves about

[kindred comet]

im being shot by a million bullets

okay next idea

completely delete the mod

[lean bough]

i guess P5R hates you rn

[kindred comet]

and reinstall it

[lean bough]

XD

[lean bough]

i mean i can deal with a little swish and invisbility

it's not gonna hurt me

[kindred comet]

i need to figure out if this can be fixed or not

[lean bough]

but i'll try reinstalling anyways

better to try it than not

just let me take like 5 minutes to download the hotfix you linked

since (i was too lazy to scroll up)

[kindred comet]

kk

[lean bough]

ok

uninstalled

and now after extracting

time to reinstall

[kindred comet]

you shouldnt need to extract it

drag and drop the 7z onto reloaded-ii and itll auto install it

drag it onto this part though

[lean bough]

oh

[kindred comet]

for some reason you cant... drag and drop it into the main part of the window 😭

[lean bough]

i've been extracting from zip and copying in the p5rpc folder thing

[kindred comet]

yeah i would recommend just letting reloaded handle it

[lean bough]

relaunching now

well uhm

i'm cooked?

[kindred comet]

did it fix it

[kindred comet]

oh

[lean bough]

this is all reloaded has done

[kindred comet]

just close that and reopen it

thats a reloaded bug

idk why it happens but its rly annoying

[lean bough]

trying again

it worked this time

and i will let you know when i load into my save

with a video

[kindred comet]

yeah sometimes i have to close and reopen it like 5 times for it to get unstuck

[lean bough]

GOD

[kindred comet]

very fun when im trying to test something like an event or animation

[lean bough]

not fun xd

said it finished

but nothing launched

uhm...................................................

[kindred comet]

give it a sec

or just

[lean bough]

did i just break my reloaded-ii?

[kindred comet]

actually if it doesnt open you might need to nuke your cache

[lean bough]

what now?

how?

i'm lost

[kindred comet]

well just wait for it to open first

[lean bough]

i'll try it one more time, i'm clean booting reloaded ii

[kindred comet]

okay before you launch the game again

open p5 essentials folder

[lean bough]

a bit late for that XD

[kindred comet]

click into the cache folder

[lean bough]

also it launched

[kindred comet]

and delete the p5r folder

[lean bough]

all i had to do was clean boot it

[kindred comet]

okay yay then

[lean bough]

here are the results

[kindred comet]

YES

https://tenor.com/view/love-live-sunshine-love-live-ruby-anime-smile-gif-9716987

WE DID IT @kindred comet

WE FIXED THE BUG

XD

[bronze finch]

Snow Halation?

[lean bough]

yes

[kindred comet]

okay so i think what was happening was

[lean bough]

are you a person of culture?

[sonic finch]

https://tenor.com/view/mari-ohara-gif-21926731

[kindred comet]

one of the older versions of the mod had visual tbl in the characters folder

which doesnt merge properly

for some reason it wasnt crashing for you?

but instead it just

wouldnt merge it lmao

[lean bough]

https://tenor.com/view/ohara-mari-aqours-love-live-sunshine-peace-sign-wink-gif-15115529

[lean bough]

huh

[bronze finch]

I'll be real the main reason I know what it is is because of this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u9g5XsoE4-s

[kindred comet]

and whenever you'd update it wouldnt like

clean out the files i removed

[lean bough]

honestly, you should watch the animes

[kindred comet]

i will make a note of that

[lean bough]

they are so good.

[sonic finch]

I love Love Live

[lean bough]

Great!

[kindred comet]

to do a fresh install every new major version

[lean bough]

SAME!

https://tenor.com/view/honoka-kosaka-kousaka-happy-smile-talking-gif-2141693307941184207

[kindred comet]

because that bug was driving me crazy i thought a spaghetti code ghost was haunting the config

[lean bough]

well now you know

[kindred comet]

also that compendium backgruond text was good to know

i just checked and it

replaces the entire bmd

[lean bough]

i just saw it

and thought it was important

that might mean

satanael

doesnt have ella bg btw

[kindred comet]

yeah ill fix it when i move it over to bmd emulator

[lean bough]

cool

@kindred comet

i may have found a bug with the voice patch.

[kindred comet]

what happened?

[lean bough]

JUST LISTEN TO KASUMI SAYING THE PERSONA NAMES

and then read them

[kindred comet]

oh thats not a bug

you have to update voice patch

then enable this

[lean bough]

is there an update?

cause i haven't seen one

[kindred comet]

yeah, 3.0.3

[lean bough]

XD

[kindred comet]

im not sure if auto update works or not

[lean bough]

also it didnt auto update

so

fun

[kindred comet]

@open gull doesnt seem like voice patch auto updates? might need to check the gb page/release metadata

actually the release page has no metadata json

so that should be fixed

[lean bough]

yeah

so how would i go about getting the voice patch update?

it's not too bad but am just curious

[kindred comet]

https://gamebanana.com/sounds/73909

scroll to the bottom and click 1 click install

and itll update it

[lean bough]

cool

thanks

[kindred comet]

yw

[lean bough]

im gonna save the link

and do it tmrw

am exahsuted

XD

[kindred comet]

sounds good!

compendium backgrounds should be fixed now

and they use bmd emulator now so they dont overwrite the entire bmd

[lean bough]

cool!

how would i get this update btw @kindred comet

for the compendium fix?

[kindred comet]

you can get it when i release the next hotfix or test build here

[lean bough]

cool

[kindred comet]

it will be added

[lilac needle]

Kinda late but the stuff above also fixed the Ella issues for me lol

[open gull]

Huh ok. I'm admittedly not sure what the issue is, but here's the metadata json from the English version.

These are the settings in the update support section.

[bronze depot]

you have to upload both the zip and metadata files

[kindred comet]

^^

actually looking at it now i dont think any of your mod pages have metadata jsons uploaded

also are you right clicking on the mod and clicking publish or are you just zipping the mod folder up by itself?

[open gull]

O I've clicked publish. I didn't realise I had to upload the json seperately too.

Just to clarify, how do I generate the json metadata file?

[kindred comet]

you just hit publish

and it'll compress the mod and generate a json

[open gull]

Ah is it the sewer56 which generates inside the 7z?

There's a p5rpc.kasumivoice.ReleaseMetadata.json.br file in the temp directory where the 7z generates, but .br isn't a valid file format for gb uploads.

[kindred comet]

no not the sewer56 one

the json in the temp directory

[kindred comet]

when you click publish, change the target to gb

[open gull]

Ah ok.

[open gull]

Ah I see, thx!

[open gull]

Tried my hand at doing a texture edit of @echo thicket' Yunaka model. I pretty much just edited the base transformation model texture so its not a solid colour. Feel free to yoink it for CBT if you want.

[supple moat]

Ella stays invisible for me

[lean bough]

Need to clean install the test build

Like fully units all it

Uninstall it

And then make sure you get the most recent hotfix

[kindred comet]

@lilac needle this should fix the ella bug for you too, fully uninstall the mod and then redownload the latest hotfix

[kindred comet]

whats the difference exactly? im not really seeing it

[open gull]

The skin base now uses an edited texture kitbashed from Sumi and Ann's swimsuit models so it isn't just solid colour.

[short spade]

i'm trying my hand at porting mitsuru's weapons from p3r to give kasumi more weapon models to use since she only has 2 or 3 compared to joker's 10

i think i'll need to tweak the materials and such but so far they're looking good

[kindred comet]

looks nice!

be sure to rig it to joker's knife though

otherwise it'll disappear and stuff

im not sure how its done, maybe by material anims but idk

but you can take a look at the weapon models in the test build

[short spade]

oh, noted!

[open gull]

Tryna figure out where this mask texture is so I can replace it.

On a side note, I noticed a funny goof with Joker's safe room anims when you move the camera at a certain angle.

[magic gyro]

did someone else got the "no aoa portrait" not working for kasumi with this version?

[kindred comet]

all you'd need to do is rename the epl

i wouldnt mind including it as a config option but i would need permission from the mod author

[kindred comet]

iirc i saw it in btl_btn

[open gull]

Ah alr thx! I'll have a look.

[magic gyro]

ty, i'll try now edit: fixed, ty again

[short spade]

while porting her weapons for kasumi - i noticed that two of joker's weapons were reused for mitsuru in p3r, just extended to the length of a rapier. pretty interesting

i might take a couple of makoto's swords too for her because i kinda dislike the look of some of mitsuru's weapons

[magic gyro]

lol, interesting indeed

is possible to extend some other dagger that fit her?

[bronze finch]

P3R used a lot of P5’s assets… so I’m not surprised
-# it’s also probably why P3R’s code is so jank

[short spade]

i wish i had a save with more weapons unlocked, but here's how a few of them are looking

[short spade]

okay that's 7 out of 8 i cant find the last one cause i'm not sure what the name of the weapon is 🥲

the missing one:

[lean bough]

i think my games flags are a bit cooked

mainly because I got like the rank 2 mishima cutscene and then instead of automatically going back home. I got given a Makoto post confidant phone call but I HAVENT DONE MADARAME OR KANESHIRO YET

like whut?

idk if this a bug with flags in this mod

or just an ingame bug

but thought it should be something that i should bring up to you @kindred comet

[short spade]

it'll help wisteria if you post your mod order - i cant imagine that's something caused by this mod though

[arctic totem]

If you're using a story overhaul mod then I think it's that

[kindred comet]

my mod shouldn't be causing this, I didn't edit any of the flags or confidant events outside of the akechi rank 6 one

issues like this are almost always a different mod

I will still check though since I did edit like 1 msg in the post confidant rank up phone call bmd but it shouldn't be causing issues

[magic gyro]

is that happend to you before or after unlocking Yusuke?

i just unlocked him and since now, that's not happened..

[magic gyro]

better one is always missing...

[lean bough]

Before

I’m not even in Madarame palace

I’ve just finished mementos

Tutorial

[lean bough]

It’s probably not your mod.

It’s probably just something broke in my game

[magic gyro]

than is not Wisteria's mod

[lean bough]

Yeah

[arctic totem]

Do you have a story/confidant overhaul mod?
