(P5R PC) Kasumi as Protagonist

[astral chasm]

do you have the female joker mod to share? I'm having issues trying to download in GB lol

idk whats happening

[kindred sonnet]

open reloaded and goto the download mods page

[astral chasm]

doesnt work as well 😢 forever like this and never progress

tysm either way ❤️

[kindred comet]

if you still need it:

[astral chasm]

thank you so much, Wist!

I'm gonna try to combine your mod with that one, let's see what happens o/

[kindred comet]

yw!

[ruby adder]

I edited the Japanese voice of ShowTime. Still in testing

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

[kindred comet]

Nice!

Whenever you're done feel free to send it here and ping me or joecula with it

[ionic fulcrum]

Is there any chance for this to become compatible with Royal Reimagined?

[stuck knoll]

I am getting jokers face on the skills menu and the battle menu, is there a fix for that?

[kindred comet]

you mean the 2d sprite of his mask?

if so then probably but i havent looked into it

[kindred comet]

no

if it doesnt already work for some reason then no

[stuck knoll]

I haven't made it to a battle other than the intro but this is the skill menu

[kindred comet]

oh

yeah that shouldnt be happening, idk

make sure everything is updated

[kindred comet]

okay yeah it seems like it uses 1.0.3B

so most definitely not

you can probably get it working on that version with older cf/cbt/whatever

but i have zero interest in supporting 1.0.3B

and i dont play royal reimagined 😝

[plucky rapids]

its being updated for 1.0.4

[kindred comet]

if it is then idk why it wouldnt work

[plucky rapids]

because the update isnt out yet lmao

[kindred comet]

ik i was saying that in reference to that being a future event

[plucky rapids]

oh lol

[ruby adder]

There were three different versions of Crow's ShowTime, so I checked all three.
All that's left is to fine-tune the position of the voice.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HcruanS3W7s

I'll check out Violet's ShowTime.

[ruby adder]

I also tried changing the voice of Violet's ShowTime to Japanese, but of course the voice actors are the same, so I couldn't tell which one was speaking.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uUQqkdc6AFU

I have given the audio file to Wisteria.

[chrome hawk]

Does that works on r&v?

[ruby adder]

r&v crashes immediately when launched in Japanese, so it's unclear whether it works.
It might work if it's possible to achieve English text + Japanese audio.

[tawny fable]

Hey is it against the rules to ask for links to study stuff in the creation of a mod for it to work on switch?

[plucky rapids]

why would that be against the rules

theyre not trade secrets lol ppl want others to learn modding

[tawny fable]

Alright so I want some links to various pages on the internet that I would be able to study how to mod a lower resolution into a mod for persona 5 switch

Simply put turn persona 5 into a lower resolution so I can run the kasumi as protagonist mod on there

[kindred comet]

uhh

what

[kindred comet]

I can try looking into it, although it'll probably have to be made as a whole standalone mod if it is translated due to the amount of text content in it + the lack of bmd emulator

if I find out why it's crashing I'll forward that to you and Zylvos and then you can ask them for permission to do a translation if you would like to

[ruby adder]

probably… but I think the problem might be due to data differences between the NAME.TBL in EN.CPK and the NAME.TBL in JP.CPK.
When loading or editing the Japanese version of NAME.TBL with P5NameTBLEditor_v1.0.1, an exception error occurs and editing is not possible.
When Rose & Violet is enabled, the game runs up to the title screen, but crashes immediately when the main game starts.

[thorn nimbus]

Dang seems like Japanese Persona 5 players are interested in Protagonist Kasumi mod there lol

[kindred comet]

I'm not sure, my mod only has an english name.tbl but it just loads the JP name.tbl if the language is set to jp

It seems to work for me

although im not sure why the text is unchanged here

okay there it is

[plucky rapids]

it should be using shift jis iirc? @echo thicket had some kind of trouble trying to use atlus's own encodings

[kindred comet]

yeah no issues so far

although if you do end up going through with a translation for this mod, it would probably be best to just make use of bmd merging

would remove a lot of redundant vanilla lines

though idk how that would play out exactly, if its a separate mod i guess you could probably just include the flowscripts and event files and then have all of the text use bmd/bf emu

would be a really really large workload though

[ruby adder]

Hmm... As expected, it crashes the moment the main story starts.
The Reloaded console also crashes without catching the error.

If Rose&Violet using a modified EN.NAME.TBL address.
The address itself is basically the same for both EN and JP.
So i thik if the address to read has changed has been modified, it will call an address that does not exist in the vanilla JP.NAME.TBL, which is why you're getting an error.
Is it possible that this is the case?

[plucky rapids]

wdym

you shouldnt need to add entries to translate a name tbl

if youre trying to directly hex edit name tbl then that will just die, ive tried it

[swift ether]

Two things! Just noticed Kasumi is doing the Third doctor Pose in the battle icons. YES. Also, there is a amazing P3Portable themed video based around Ren/Kasumi that might be give you some ideas/a collaborator for the Joker over Sumi mod. If nothing else it's a lot of fun. It was nice to see Soul Phrase playing a "what if" with Ren and Kasumi as MC and FeMC

(it's on Game Banana!)

[trail topaz]

What’s the video

https://youtu.be/e7vBegwAiGE?si=O1ha5PFM31Z5wYoa
is this it?

[thorn nimbus]

I thought of this as well too 🤔

[rain tangle]

I remember seeing a fully animated version of that was was 1 to 1 with the original soul phrase, using the models from p5r

Found it lmao

https://youtu.be/5JKtRZvlmbk?si=k5xQFwM4mrft7bvB

Okay now that I look at it again it's not exactly 1 to 1 but you get the idea

[swift ether]

this is the one I was talking about!!! Someone put it in a intro mod.

Something with this concept would be ideal for Wisteria's Joker over Sumire Mod or even as an alternative opening. (Since it is short and could be longer and more flushed out for funsies)

I like this one because it hits certain beats with the model choices.

Having Morgana be the first model you see really sets the tone.

(even if he annoys you Man what a weird strange journey it has been for him)

[tawny fable]

Update: I’m going back into the key frame deletions in a attempt to get it working on switch version with out such a downgraded resolution but it will still probably be needed for the rose and violet port

[small venture]

Really minor thing, one of the mementos requests has a move that only lands on the female PT and kasumi is immune to it

the fight against shadow arihara

[kindred sonnet]

its intended

and wont be fixed

[echo thicket]

I'm not entirely sure that's easily fixable without a custom command (like Custom Bonus Tweaks has), because the character being considered a female unit is a flag in the combat unit data for the Protagonist

[kindred sonnet]

its been brought up more then once in the rose and violet chat

its being left as is same for kamoshida lick

so people can still use an all girl group if they chose

[echo thicket]

I dont see the harm in fixing it, but it's just not "easy" without creating a hard dependency somewhere

[small venture]

ah ok gotcha

[small stream]

Wistera i got this weird black face glitch during persona summon for attack, do you know how to fix this?

[celest thicket]

thats not a glitch, that's intended by the game.

[zealous fjord]

There's actually a bug where finishing a battle with a Persona skills makes the protag keep the black face during the result screen

[celest thicket]

I see

[kindred comet]

no fix atm

I tried fixing it and ended up just fucking up the gap/animation

might be in the EMT or some thing , no idea

[echo thicket]

if you mean the dark face thing, yes it's an animation in the emt, it's a material animation specifically

its a combination of 2 things iirc, the animation is in the emt but it is called by the facial dat file

worth noting that oftentimes the material animations in P5R work by material id and not the actual material name

so for example it could be that the game expects something to be the 5th material but something else is in there instead

this is the reason why the combat outfits have the face materials ordered all in the same exact way for any specific character

[kindred comet]

hmm

it only ever happens with the phantom suit (iirc)

which is just the vanilla model, I assume the facial dat is trying to call a joker anim that isnt there

although knowing it's called by facial.dat is a good start

I'll probably look into it later today

I think the reason why my attempts at fixing it didn't work was bcs I was editing the actual animation itself and not the blend anims

[reef musk]

Based DGS profile pic

[kindred comet]

true

wish it was easier to trigger this glitch

its rly inconsistent because the navis dont shut the fuck up

[steep scaffold]

There's a discord for this mod right?

[kindred comet]

this thread is the closest thing

well i think(?) i fixed it

[steep scaffold]

I see. Cus I feel like I installed it wrong...

So. The opening is the original P5 opening with Sumire in it. And it has her rapier as the weapon... But Joker is still there as the main model, along with his voices and bustups

[kindred comet]

did you read the installation guide

and did you do this

[steep scaffold]

That might do it...

[ruby adder]

I was able to change the persona names by editing the Japanese version's NAME.TBL.
Arsene → Cendrillon
Raoul → Vanadis
Satanael → Ella

[kindred comet]

Nice, I can add it to the mod once all the edits are finalized

[ruby adder]

I changed the names of three personas.
I also changed the names of the melee weapons and guns.
All that's left is the description, but it doesn't work well in StringEditor, so i have to check the contents of the msg file and edit each one by matching it with the ID, which takes a bit of time.

[steep scaffold]

Joker's voice still remains. Even when I disabled the "Joker Voice pack"

[urban anvil]

do you have kasumi over joker voice thingy or whatever

[steep scaffold]

Oh, thought that was in the mod itself

[kindred comet]

don't disable that

it adds extra combat voice lines that the voice mod overwrites

I should just start sending ppl the installation guide video

[kindred comet]

download it off of gb

[tawny fable]

@kindred comet I’m going to be working on the mod still but it’s probably going to take more months to work cuz i had some ideas to further optimize it which im going to be studying on and trying to implement so I don’t have to worry about reducing resolution to get it to work.

[kindred comet]

idk what you mean by reducing resolution

that's not how... animations work
..?

[steep scaffold]

What is the name for Kasumi's White version of her normal Black Leotard?

Is it just White Leotard?

[kindred comet]

Yes

[steep scaffold]

Cus I can't seem to find it. I swear I'm not blind...

[tawny fable]

That’s not what I’m talking about I had an idea I posted here a while back to get it to work in an attempt by reducing the games resolution it worked then but I decided to go back to the animation thing and delete key frames I just had another idea I wanted to work on to see if I could get the rose and violet mod working as well so I’m still working on the animations and stuff

Got the mod working for the most part is what I’m referring to but I’m still working on getting it to run properly I just had an idea to fix it I wanted to study on

[kindred comet]

Download the addon mod if you haven't already

[steep scaffold]

I did, off of GameBanana

[kindred comet]

Then idk, it should be there if the mod is enabled

[steep scaffold]

Kasumi as Protagonist Alternate Costumes. Right?

[kindred comet]

no

the addon collection from my mod page

[steep scaffold]

this?

[kindred comet]

yes

[kindred comet]

oh, then I don't really know why you're pinging me about it

I'm just confused as to what you're even doing

[tawny fable]

Still learning how to port mods and trying to find ways to keep it in the memory limit I got it working on citron by reducing the resolution but figured that ain’t a good solution so I’m looking down different paths besides resolution an animation to see if there’s anything else I can do to the mod to make it where it’s playable

[kindred comet]

Alright then

[vast mountain]

I was confused at first as well. But it sounds like you are trying to port the mod not to the Switch version of the game, but to the Citron (emulated Switch) version? And you were already able to successfully get the files over, but you just had to lower the resolution? That sounds like your issue is on the Citron side of things then. It's not the mod or the data, it's how the emulator is struggling to process it.

[tawny fable]

I was doing some testing on it to see if different resolutions could help launch it that was it I’m more focused on animations and stuff to port it over to the switch however I’m looking into different roots to see if there are any other viable solutions for it to launch properly on switch version so far it only worked on citron not the switch version so I’m working on the project so it can run on switch this was just a test earlier of the pictures I posted.

If it was a working product for the switch I would have posted it after all it’s a switch port not an emulator port I’m working on.

[vast mountain]

Got it, so you were testing on Citron (which is why outside assets weren't an issue, but "file size" was, and why it was able to work with a resolution change, maybe?) My guess would be to look and see if the mod added any new assets (any new models for the fixed object-interaction animations maybe?) If you're trying to get it to work on hardware for the switch (and you've already figured out how to get all the dependency mods working first (like Costume Framework, etc...) Then you're going to need to make sure it's only using files and assets that are in the base game, otherwise the Switch won't understand what files the mod is trying to edit/replace. It doesn't sound like porting a mod like this is just going to be a file size issue. It's going to be a programming/game asset availability issue.

(granted, porting mods is waaaaay over my head. But I'm used to the frustrations of trying to mod a hardware version of a game vs. a pc version. So I feel you.)

[kindred comet]

That's not entirely true

Especially about the only using files and assets in base game

[echo thicket]

i think they mean that in a file replacing way

[tawny fable]

Beat me to it there

[echo thicket]

there is no costume framework

[kindred comet]

The most that would happen is you'd waste space dumping in a bunch of models that will never get called

Which isn't really the problem either

The problem is certain gap field files being too big

Which the game calls for on boot

And then dies because I assume mem limits

[vast mountain]

Ahhh. Okay. I assumed you couldn't add new assets at all for hardware versions.

[echo thicket]

you cant, not in the same way as PC anyway

[echo thicket]

part of the reason

you can certainly replace existing costumes/models

[vast mountain]

right.

gotcha. okay. I was just confused with asset insertion. So it IS a memory/file size issue.

[echo thicket]

allegedly, the Switch is shared ram/vram like the PS3

[tawny fable]

and the gap field file being to big and only working on citron currently is do to the resolution being lowered used less memory so the mod was able to run. It’s the reason it’s not posted yet

So been working on finding ways to get it to work but cutting key frames alone ain’t going to cut it.

[vast mountain]

So you're just trying to find less intrusive ways of cutting the file size down.

(less intrusive than chopping animations or a resolution drop)

[tawny fable]

Yes I’m trying to find a way to get it to work without resolution having to be lowered or cutting key frames out at the end have not made much progress in that so far though so I’m studying and looking down different paths for it.

but still probably going to have to cut key frames at the end of animations I just think resolution being lowered is a step to far for it to work.

[echo thicket]

there is a way to cut down animation file size without any actual loss but its more technical than what you might be able to do as it has to do with how animations are exported

the game supports "compressed" animation keyframes

a lot of custom animations are whole uncompressed keyframe type (which is just raw PRS frames)

[tawny fable]

Can you send me a link to any video on here on how to do that.

[echo thicket]

there is no video

you'd have to mess around with how current tools export animations

[tawny fable]

alright so optimization it is.

[kindred comet]

what are the compressed keyframes called?

[echo thicket]

there's a few

i only know the names GFD Studio gives them

but there's PRHalf, PHalf and RHalf

[kindred comet]

oh huh

[echo thicket]

persona dancing makes heavy use of them (vita game and all that)

[kindred comet]

yeah i remember seeing those names in the 010 template

[kindred comet]

that actually makes

a lot of sense

i was wondering how tf they got the gaps to fit in there

dancing is still the best looking persona game imo by like a wide margin

[echo thicket]

they're all compressed animation keyframes

[kindred comet]

yeah i dunno how you'd go about exporting them as compressed keyframes then

@civic jolt would you know anything about exporting "compressed" keyframes (PRhalf,PHalf, etc)

[echo thicket]

i imagine its some awfully complicated process

or else itd be the default

[tawny fable]

Still searching for info on this if anyone finds anything it would be greatly appreciated

[kindred comet]

New update is out, have fun

[ruby adder]

I've checked the Japanese update!
I'll Improve and submit along with NAME.TBL at a later date.

This is a very minor point, but...
In "Takemi's CO-OP," in the scene where medicine is taken as part of a clinical trial, the position of the beaker is unnatural. There's also the phenomenon of the contents not decreasing.
Also, when eating curry, the spoon's movements are off.
Is it impossible to fix these?

[kindred comet]

Currently it's not possible to fix the floating items

Some items have their own animations instead of just being bound to the helper bone

And item skeletons don't import correctly into blender

Even if they did there's no really good way to preview what edits would look like in-game without exporting and reopening the game s bunch of times

[ruby adder]

That's a very tedious specification...

[small stream]

Wisteria what does that gun overhaul do?

wait nvm i got it

[plucky rapids]

id suggest evtui if it were close to release and if those other things werent an issue
for previewing

maybe worth pinging pherakki about, re:item skel not importing right? if they dont already know

[kindred comet]

yeah I already notified them about it

its on the blender addon gh

[ruby adder]

Wouldn't it have been impossible to change the big-ass Satanael who appears in the fight against Yaldabaoth into Ella?

Also, the subtitles for the Satanael summoning cutscene in the above event were in English. I'll translate this as well

[kindred comet]

That's part of the voice patch I think

So you'd have to ask Joecula

[kindred comet]

wouldve been possible but I didn't rly know what to do about that one since he's there for story reasons

and also Ella doesn't have a giant gun like him

so the cutscene wouldn't make any sense

[echo thicket]

iirc the satanael on the cutscene is a character model

not like, the persona

[kindred comet]

yeah ik

just would've looked rly awkward

[echo thicket]

it sure would

[ruby adder]

I understeed that changing to Ella is difficult.
I asked this question to determine the direction for optimizing the text.

[kindred comet]

I think you can pull most of the lines from vanilla anyway

[ruby adder]

The only modifications to events are the 6/11 event and Akechi Rank 6, right?
Is it correct to assume that the related of beach-events will remain the same as in vanilla?

[ruby adder]

and... will the room assignments for the school trip remain vanilla?

[kindred comet]

Yes, they will remain the same

Including the room assignment

[ruby adder]

Understood.
I will edit the text to make it consistent with the content.

[kindred comet]

It might still be possible to edit the dialogue to make it seem like she's in a girl's room or mention that there aren't any other rooms available

[small stream]

guys any of you have a save file that is right after the yadabaoth? i wanna start from 3rd sem straight after 1st playthrough and pusue sumire as joker.

[rain tangle]

this should work

starts on 1/2 I believe

[small stream]

oh this yours?

[rain tangle]

nah its from gamebanana, theres a collection of saves on there

[ruby adder]

It's still WiP, but I uploaded mod for testing purposes.

[small stream]

Wisteria if i want kasumi to wield pistol do i need switch off the equipment patch?

[kindred sonnet]

on the configure options for the kasumi as protag mod there is an option to select which melee and ranged weapon she uses on screen

[ruby adder]

It was supposed to be a mugwort bath, but there was a yuzu floating in it, which made me laugh, even though it was rude.

[small stream]

Wisteria just wanna know as of now the only rapier that will appear in kasumi's hand is the starter model right? no alternate weapon model?

like all these

btw is this for joker modded over as kasumi or just base sumire?

[short spade]

the weapon models are for this mod and they are an optional in the addon mod

[ruby adder]

In the scene where the protagonist returns from the toilet during the buffet party on 5/5, the motion is Joker, is it difficult to fix?

[small stream]

Oh btw how you manage to fix that rapier misalignment issue in Kasumi hand?

This is aligned perfectly in Kasumi hand

[small venture]

why is she staring into our soul 💀

[kindred comet]

that whole thing is mocapped so yeah, the root bone moves around too. i would have to remake it which I don't know how to do (nor want to do)

joker animations don't really matter as long as her back isn't super slouched like his

and if there's skirt/hair keyframes

[kindred comet]

you dont

I already explained this

just deal with it

either that or import the old rapier skeleton yourself and deal with it disappearing randomly

[ruby adder]

What about the fix to the public bath?

[kindred comet]

no idea

[ruby adder]

I see. It will take some time, I will study the graphics and try to fix bath.

[small stream]

how do i actually choose? i enabled it already but how to pick which weapon model

[kindred sonnet]

instead of lever action select pistol

same for rapier or dagger

[small stream]

oh i c ic thanks alot

[small stream]

i selected the rapier already, but how do i change the rapeir appearance

[kindred sonnet]

uh?

if rapier is selected it will be w.e model of rapier you have equiped in game

i think there is an option to always have it the gold one but cant remember where

[small stream]

i wanna wield like this rapier

or is it now all rapiers from shop has diff models now?

[short spade]

yes

[small stream]

oh....

i c ic thanks

there is no expanded model for level action rifle right?

[short spade]

i don’t think so no

[open gull]

These are all the weapon models JustAdam replaced in that addon.

And this is the No Lances version.

Personally, I swapped around a few of the sword models for my own personal build so they'd match the name changes in the Weapons & Equipment patch. (eg: I think number 3 is the Silver Dagger/Silver Rapier model, so I swapped 3 and 2 by renaming the GMD files to match. I also replaced WP0004.GMD with a copy of WP0003 since that's the model used by the Royal Dagger/Royal Rapier.)

I believe WP0009 is Arsene's Cane/The Great Thief Stick. Sometime, I really oughta try making a texture edit of WP0010 to match the Enchanted/Moonlit Rapier you get from executing Cendrillon in this mod.
That's not to throw any shade at the actual mod. JustAdam did a fantastic job importing all these models. I just like to tinker with stuff.

[grizzled crystal]

i may be working on a mod (i'll get to those other outfits eventually i swear !!!)

[zealous fjord]

For real? (as they say)

[trail topaz]

aigis

[kindred sonnet]

you have my attention

[kindred sonnet]

also nice Ryuji I read that in his voice damnit

[kindred comet]

I used to pray for times like this

[swift ether]

That makes me ecstatic

[sour palm]

I have a question. I have epic party and colorful pack downloaded why does the icons look like it's still joker (or i guess femc? i dont have that mod downloaded) instead of kasumi?

[trail topaz]

do you have kasumi below those mods

[trail topaz]

,

[kindred sonnet]

when I had both epic and colorful pack my party panal was all solid colors

so i think i have the load order wrong

it didn't look like that photo color wise though mine was kasumi

[trail topaz]

send your load order

[trail topaz]

colorful and epic should be above kasumi and all that

put them below unreal essentials

[kindred sonnet]

ok

[trail topaz]

this is my order

also https://drive.google.com/file/d/1sJONs1jO6HFVhSVVqKeTks5H6i15FEmU/view?usp=sharing

[small venture]

Swap epic and colorful

[trail topaz]

oh yea that too

epic should overwrite colorful

[trail topaz]

@kindred sonnet follow the pdf guide for rose and violet its easier lol

not sure its theres a video guide lol

[kindred sonnet]

i get this now

and this in battle so looks like its working now

[urban anvil]

looks about right i dont remember

[trail topaz]

yea thats correct just check the guide and make sure you have everything else correct (will save you headaches later)

[kindred sonnet]

i doubled checked everything thank you for the help

almost always a mod load order thats the problem

[small venture]

That’s still not right

It should look like this

[kindred sonnet]

no clue what i did then

[small venture]

Maybe you checked the option for the colored icon in KAP but colorful is still overwriting epic

[urban anvil]

also r&v epic config option

since thats what is being used

[kindred sonnet]

my 2 configure options for kp and r&v

[urban anvil]

i wonder if there's an incompatibility somewhere

[kindred sonnet]

long hair ann and or pony tail haru maybe

but those are both way down at the bottom of the list

along with sophia

[zealous fjord]

It's colorful pack, you're using it alongside EPIC party panel

The option is made to go with EPIC party panel, but you can use it with colorful pack. It's just not in the "style" of colorful pack

[kindred comet]

Also it's unrelated to my toggles

[small venture]

Long hair Ann works just fine

[thorn nimbus]

Still remember this music when used for Kasumi as Protagonist Trailer and now loving this music rn~

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CbqBaB4COXc

[spice grotto]

Very groovy

[thorn nimbus]

Ikr~

[spice grotto]

[thorn nimbus]

[craggy ice]

the bugfix for the disappearing mask on the run around screen seems to be kind of working? her mask is now transparent...

is that happening for everyone?

[candid oriole]

Yes, I noticed this as well when I was playing last night.

It appears transparent, but once the results screen appears it returns to normal.

[craggy ice]

that's how it was before with the disappearing mask

[kindred comet]

mentioned in the patch notes

[craggy ice]

oh well it says "hair transparancy" i haven't experienced that, just the mask being transparent

[kindred comet]

sameish thing

I just called it hair transparency since that's the part it was most noticeable on for me

but it was probably just the mask being transparent

with the red hair making it stand out

[small stream]

is it possible to choose the cosmetic model of the rapier instead of needing to swap weapon for certain model.

[kindred comet]

no

unless you manually rename the model files yourself

[open gull]

Which is exactly what I did.

[small stream]

can teach me

[open gull]

Oh it's simple. Just right click on the file and press CTRL+C and then CTRL+P to create a copy of the file.

[small stream]

the file is under steam?

[open gull]

Nah, the files in the mod folder.

Lemme get it up before I head out.

Reloaded-II\Mods\p5rpc.kasumiasprotag\OptionalModFiles\Model\Melee\MODEL\WEAPON

[small stream]

found it

so if i want rapier no.2....

[open gull]

That's WP0002.GMD

[small stream]

found these

[open gull]

Yep, that's it!

[small stream]

as of now Kasumi is using number 4 if i wanna switch to 2...

so how do i do the switch?

any idea?

[open gull]

Right click WP0002, then copy and paste it. Delete WP0004 and then rename the copy of WP0002 to WP0004.

[small stream]

oh okok

just what is number 2 originally? as in game as a rpaier

is it a late game one?

[open gull]

.

[small stream]

as in what is it called

[open gull]

Can't help more, sorry. Am sitting in car and don't wanna vomit

[small stream]

okok thanks

gonna tinker it myself

[open gull]

As for what in-game weapons WP0002 correlates to, I don't have the faintest clue. I don't know if there's a way to check which model each in-game weapon loads, but that would've made naming all those weapons a whole lot easier if I had known how.

[sour palm]

do you guys use romance mods? i tried gay joker but it seems broken

[urban anvil]

i dont know for just this mod but i know it definitely doesn't work for story overhaul

[plucky rapids]

why are you asking here and not the gay jonkler thread and also its already known that gay jonkler is broken

[urban anvil]

a romance mod for the story haul is being worked on tho so perhaps one day

[sour palm]

i see. thanks!

[astral chasm]

you can use female protagonist mod on GB to romance Ryuji or Yusuke

just make sure that Wisteria’s Kasumi mod is after that one

[sour palm]

alright. thank you!

[urban anvil]

a friend of mine is having issues, what did you do for this?

[vast mountain]

Aslo make sure that Joker is set as slot_1 in Costume Framework's configuration.

[urban anvil]

Yeah i kinda forgot about that lol they got it tho

[astral chasm]

mine is like that

[thorn nimbus]

Question: where did this outfit came from, just for curiosity?

https://images.gamebanana.com/img/ss/mods/687d84e97090a.jpg

[kindred sonnet]

pretty sure that is from persona 4 dancing all night

I could be mistaken though its been years since I last played it so I barely remember it

[craggy ice]

when does she wear that outfit? doesn't she usually wear the pink one?

is it a third semester outfit?

[kindred sonnet]

theres a mod option that lets you switch her work outfit

[craggy ice]

ooohh

[kindred sonnet]

let me see if i can find which one does it

[craggy ice]

i think i remember seeing it

[kindred sonnet]

main protag mod

has it

[thorn nimbus]

huh interesting let me look up and see if Joker has the lawson outfit

[kindred sonnet]

afaik there not in the base royal game

i dont think p4g dancing outfits were ever added

[thorn nimbus]

oh wow it's the Beta Convience Store outfit lfmao

[kindred sonnet]

the p5 dancing ones are

[thorn nimbus]

for p5 beta

lmfaoo

https://gamebanana.com/mods/492481

[craggy ice]

no way it's an actual company

[kindred sonnet]

so not the lawson p4 dancing outfit

[craggy ice]

we love copyright infringement

[kindred sonnet]

I remember p4 dance has a lawson dlc

they may have been paid to use the name

[craggy ice]

why the fuck would a konbini sponsor a jrpg spin off wtf

[kindred sonnet]

i doubt atlus would risk a lawsuit

money

its the answer to everything

[thorn nimbus]

I've now been Mindblown rn lmfao

[kindred sonnet]

The Lawson DLC for Persona 4: Dancing All Night is a costume set exclusive to pre-orders of the game in Japan from Lawson convenience stores,

not sure why it was a beta outfit in p5

[craggy ice]

placeholder

[kindred sonnet]

maybe the store was going to run another promotion and bailed

never even had the dlc in the game when I played as it was a pre order thing

[craggy ice]

i was gonna say there's probably a mod for it but that's illegal!

[kindred sonnet]

eh

you really think there going to care about a mod

for a older game

or even know about it lol

unless a store employee plays

and talks

well well well

if you have it on playstation its available

lol

its on the atlus website for the game

[thorn nimbus]

Dang well I guess that's avaliable in that game

while in Persona 5, aka Beta outfit

[kindred sonnet]

nvm its dead lol

thats for the vita and the store was shut down years ago i think

though being on a older console chances are good finding a rom with all the dlc already on it

and running an emulator

that is however illegal lol

[thorn nimbus]

dang

[kindred sonnet]

but eh i emulate

never had anything happen

just be careful where you find roms

more often then not its a virus unless your careful

[thorn nimbus]

Noted 👍

[lilac needle]

Fuck you colorbends your kasumi

[craggy ice]

OMGGG

WAIT I NEED

I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS

red hair red eyes rose kasumi!!!

@thorn nimbus LOOK

[thorn nimbus]

Omg it looks soo goodd

[thorn nimbus]

🥳🥳🥳🥳

[craggy ice]

please tell me when you're finished!!

[thorn nimbus]

@lilac needle 🥳🥳🥳

[lilac needle]

I meaan it‘s just a tex swap lol all i did was give her sumire‘s texturess

[craggy ice]

better than anything i could do...

[lilac needle]

I mean i could make it a texture pack kinda thingy

[craggy ice]

i don't wanna touch 3d models with a 10 foot pole

[lilac needle]

Awhh

[craggy ice]

that'd be appreciated! i can handle the file order and hand it over to zylvos as a config option, since i've made (shitty) bustups lol

[lilac needle]

Yeah i honestly suck at modeling myself texture work‘s all im good at

[lilac needle]

Oh that‘d be cool!

[craggy ice]

this ismotivating me to touch up those bustups

[ashen sapphire]

you are filled with determination

[thorn nimbus]

She has Rose Kasumi model but now has Red Hair and Red Eyes now~

[craggy ice]

@lilac needle would you mind tex swapping the red and white + pure white leotards too?

[thorn nimbus]

2nd for tex swapping Sister Leotard outfit pls 🙏

[craggy ice]

well that's the main one so i imagine they did that already

also i'm talkin' the ones with the hearts on their chest. kasumi over protag has those outfits but they're just sumire's default leotard recolored

[thorn nimbus]

Oh I thought the Sister Leotard outfit is the one with Heart Shape Window

[craggy ice]

it does i think?

i think "beta leotard" is just sister leotard but with the default red hair red eyes

[lilac needle]

I‘ll prolly just try colorbending all outfits

[craggy ice]

ah

[lilac needle]

It‘s just a matter of replacing textures so it‘s no biggie

[thorn nimbus]

Ahh okay

[swift lintel]

💖 to everyone working toward color-blend Kasumi, Red Rose. Your efforts are highly appreciated!

[thorn nimbus]

Gotta love Kasumi/Rose(R&V) with Red Hair and Red Eyes~ ❤️

[ruby adder]

Regarding the protagonist's outfit for the July 18th fireworks event,
this is a furisode, not a yukata. lol
Furisode are traditional Japanese garments worn for formal ceremonies and celebrations, while yukata are lighter attire—historically treated as bedding or loungewear.
Yukata have shorter sleeves, and footwear is typically bare feet with sandals. You might notice the difference when comparing them to NPCgirls or Ann or Makoto's yukata.
Can't customize the furisode to make it look like a yukata?

[zealous fjord]

Thanks for the in-depth explanations. I think I said she was going to wear hear Kimono in Rose & Violet, not her yukara since I knew it's supposed to be a bit different

It's easy to edit the sleeves and the feet

The underwear is going to be tricky, since that stuff always ends clipping or not being fitted correctly

Nevermind, I was worried it would create holes everywhere, it seems like it's working

[ruby adder]

It's a wonderful job!
If you make the white part of the sleeves transparent, I think it would look like a perfect yukata.
If I'm being picky, the obi might be a bit too flashy, but since Ann and Makoto in the same scene are also wearing quite flashy obi, I don't think it looks out of place.

[zealous fjord]

Well, looks like it was also hiding some clipping issues with the animations

It shouldn't be noticeable at this distance

[ruby adder]

It looks very much like a yukata now!

Furisode kimonos are generally worn for events during the cold season, so they're made with thick fabric. (It's said that Japanese women in the past wore 7 ~ 8 layers.)
The Atlus modeler who went to that level of detail is quite the pervert, but wearing one in summer looks like torture.

[craggy ice]

god damn 7-8 layers???

[ruby adder]

Is it possible to add a costume as a yukata, separate from the New Year event's furisode?

[zealous fjord]

Yes, it'll require a small bit of event editing to change the model used during the fireworks festival

[craggy ice]

i think they meant like a costume in the metaverse?

it's interesting to think kasumi just has two of the same design lmao

[ruby adder]

From a Japanese perspective, furisode and yukata are completely different things lol

[craggy ice]

yeah i get that i just mean like... she's got the same design for both

maybe she just bought them at the same place or something

[ruby adder]

Let's fill in the settings like that lol

[kindred comet]

could you send me the Sumire version of this as well? I don't remember if the yukata textures were different or not

[ruby adder]

I have no talent for modeling, so I can only make requests regarding the model, but I'm truly delighted that you accommodated me.

[ruby adder]

Although it's a limited scenario for a fireworks event, could you please edit the .EVT file?

[kindred comet]

It should already be edited, I used the same evt Zylvos used for rose & violet

[ashen sapphire]

teemwork 😎

[zealous fjord]

Sure. Sumire has a yellow version

I don't know if it's worth trying to recolor them. We might have to ask MyTamagos to edit the photo too

[kindred comet]

Makes sense, iirc that was just the new years outfit anyway 😆

Thanks

I'll tag @calm compass

[zealous fjord]

And I remember spending a lot of time trying to find the right shade of pink

Red doesn't look too bad

Since Ann is in blue and Makoto is in white

[urban anvil]

ooh snazzy

[zealous fjord]

I can't get a right shade of blue

[ashen sapphire]

schnazzy indeed

[zealous fjord]

@kindred comet Do you want it in red for Sumire too, or another color?

Might as well figure out the color for both before asking MyTamagos

[kindred comet]

Yeah let's go with red

[thorn nimbus]

Ooh it looks very Peach colored there

[zealous fjord]

Here's how it looks in game

[craggy ice]

she's so cute!

[zealous fjord]

It looks nice with Sumire's red hair as well

Gotta make the long hair variants too

[craggy ice]

that's why I'm a red hair enjoyer

the red hair looks super good with the metaverse red and white leotard

[ruby adder]

That's really nice!

In finer details, the sleeves of the furisode kimono are closed, while the yukata sleeves are open and spread out... but tampering with that might cause issues with the model, so I think it's fine as is.

[thorn nimbus]

We love to see it~

[zealous fjord]

@kindred comet Here you go. I've included a long hair variant and the edited events.
The model number I've chosen is C0001_076_00.GMD

[kindred comet]

Thank you!

[ruby adder]

This is also a fairly limited event...
There's an event where a friend comes to Leblanc on a holiday to spend time together. (Yusuke or Ryuji or Futaba)
After spending the daytime together, if you choose to spend the night as well, there's an action called “Go to the public bath” among the nighttime activities. Selecting this takes protagonist to the men's bath with Ryuji or Yusuke!!
I think it would be better to either hide the “Go to the public bath” option itself or edit the event.

While this is an event rarely choose during normal play, if the kind of player who likes P5R enough to install these mods, I think there's a fair amount of possibility they'd choose it.

The relevant events are e760_501 and e760_811.

[kindred comet]

This is one I'm aware of, I was planning on just doing an overhaul for that entire system as a separate mod

[zealous fjord]

I've disabled that option in Rose & Violet. You can still eat curry or make coffee with them

[craggy ice]

@lilac needle how's the texture swap for red kasumi going?

[kindred comet]

could you lob me the evt files? I'll add them as a stand-in for now

[zealous fjord]

They're not EVT, they're BF files. I've disabled the option to go to the bathhouse when they talk about staying longer

[kindred comet]

oh huh

guess I got mixed up

[zealous fjord]

I think there's a few dialogues edited dialogues in there, but if you want them

[kindred comet]

yeah I'll take them

[ruby adder]

I edited the .flow to go to the bathhouse in the extension and not to go out.

[zealous fjord]

Alright, I'll send them to you later then

[light horizon]

I just remembered something
https://gamebanana.com/mods/480641
this mod changed cutins to P5T versions but iirc I used to have issues with it until I had to modify the mod files
Is it compatible now or...?

[zealous fjord]

It's not compatible since it doesn't use Costume Frameworks. Even if it did, it would require Wisteria and I to make a similar cutin for Kasumi, which would require reusing the mods files (it's a bit more advanced than what we have going on in our mods)

I think the best way to proceed would be to make it a configure option. It'll require the mod author permission either way

In my case, I'll need to recolor the cutin, which isn't going to be easy

I remember someone asking me about this mod on my GB page

[trail topaz]

the preview has tactica models too?

[light horizon]

I don't think so? the preview video pretty sure it's just the Q2 models

[trail topaz]

ohh those are the q models

[light horizon]

so TLDR, no then

[trail topaz]

not compatible no

[light horizon]

okay

[trail topaz]

not without a bunch of editing

[light horizon]

I think I used to try that before, don't remember if I actually got it working

it has been a while since last time I touched p5r

[trail topaz]

you'dd need a cutin for her and it would have to be recoloured

prob just replace jokers cut in with hers and it should be good enough

[light horizon]

wait, recolor like, the hair and all that stuff to match protag kasumi right

[trail topaz]

yea

[light horizon]

ah ok

thx for answering

[trail topaz]

no problem

if you need someone to recolour it I can

id just need the files for the cut in

[zealous fjord]

The file that I would use for my Alternate models mod is "BCT_P_BC0010.DDS" in the folder
p5t_critical_cut-ins1_0_0\P5REssentials\CPK\BASE.CPK\BATTLE\CUTIN

However, I don't think it's going to be easy

[trail topaz]

so gotta overwrite that alr

does sumire have a tactica cut in that can be used as a base?

[zealous fjord]

It looks like this

[light horizon]

oh it's spritesheet format huh

that's going to be a lot...

[trail topaz]

What do the P5r cut ins look like?

Im assuming probably organized differently

[zealous fjord]

My cutin looks like this

See how they made the flame borders work?

I don't know if it's possible to recolor it because of the flame borders

[trail topaz]

Should be

Just make a selection and colour shift that

Or use the the brush in photoshop for recolouring

[zealous fjord]

Well, not with my meager Paint.net skills, that's for sure 😁

[trail topaz]

I’d just have to shift all the red hair to brown

Oh I can do it no problem

[ashen sapphire]

paint.net mentioned

i loev paint.net

[trail topaz]

Paint.net is what I used to use lol

It’s got a lot of the stuff photoshop does

More user friendly than gimp too

[ashen sapphire]

i cant stand gimp

[trail topaz]

same

Paint.net mimics photoshop and gimp just does whatever lol

[zealous fjord]

Well, sure. If you want to give it a try, then we'll ask DniweTamp. They're active on this server too

[ashen sapphire]

i mostly use paint.net for making 3ds themes but its great

[trail topaz]

I love custom 3Ds themes

[trail topaz]

can you send me the raw file for the tactica cut in if you have it, apparently they arent on spriters resource

ill check textures resource

nope no page for that

[zealous fjord]

Oh, uh. I don't have the raw file for it

I was just looking at the mod files

[trail topaz]

I’ll have to dump it from tactica then lol

[zealous fjord]

In that case, you can maybe ask DniweTamp

[trail topaz]

or is there a sumire cut in in the mod already?

The P5t cut in mod

I could just grab it from there

[zealous fjord]

BCT_P_BC0010.DDS

Is the sumire p5t cutin

In the mod

[trail topaz]

alr

[kindred comet]

no

you can just manually overwrite the cutin files yourself though

anyways as much as I like Tactica cutins boss cutins being nuked is a dealbreaker for me so I'm not super interested in adding it personally

[trail topaz]

I wonder why it nukes the boss cutins

Also I’ll recolour the texture in a bit my gf is playing a game about digging a hole lmao

[light horizon]

[kindred comet]

True...

oh yeah will the full aigis mod have a dancing head/hair version or would rigging that be too painful

[kindred sonnet]

thanks i needed a nightmare tonight >.< lol

[ruby adder]

The seated meditation pose at that temple in Kichijoji boosts protagonists SP, but i think the lotus position after the third time is tough for high school girls.
I think the seiza pose keeps your back straighter and suits Kasumi better.

[kindred comet]

My reasoning for using the lotus position was because she's a gymnast

[ruby adder]

Oh, and please take off shoes lol

[kindred comet]

Idk how, the event in vanilla doesnt take the shoes off either

[kindred comet]

This pose does look nice though, I wouldnt mind outright replacing the old one

[plucky rapids]

theres an evt command for hiding parts of models

idr which it is though

and the mesh being hidden has to have specific name rules

@dense prawn would prob remember

[kindred comet]

Oh if thats the case I can probably just check one of the story events

or night post confidant dialogue event

[dense prawn]

MSSs

[kindred comet]

sometimes wish evt commands had more readable names

[dense prawn]

The layers need to have a specific name for the command to work, but most event models work with it.

[kindred comet]

Well these are vanilla models for the most part so it should work

The only exception being summer casual

Since that doesnt have the shoes separated iirc

well they are i guess but

i forgot her summer model kinda breaks when imported with gfstools

[zealous fjord]

IIrc, you need to set Bind pose to Scaleless Rest Pose when importing (and maybe enable Connect Child Bones)

It's only that model that does that

[kindred comet]

its still broken when doing that

it just breaks less than it normally would

think its because of a regression with scaleless rest pose, could probably just downgrade gfstools to fix it but i dont really want to deal with that

[zealous fjord]

Hum, same. It's weird because that used to work for me on my old PC. I remember that MyTamagos couldn't get it to work either

However, the model in my models mod are working without chaning anything to the import options

[kindred comet]

weird

well i dont feel like dealing with the summer model anyway

i think the bottom of her feet would literally need to be resculpted anyway and that bottom part would have to be a separate mesh similar to the socks mesh that gets hidden

[zealous fjord]

Yeah, it's weird that this model isn't made like all the others. Maybe it's the first one Atlus dev made or something

[kindred comet]

well tmk i dont think theres any event where her shoes are hidden thats accessible with the summer casual

although the same could go for summer uniform i guess

wonder if they just did it for shoe proportion reasons

[zealous fjord]

Well, you can compare it to the swimsuit one, since she also has the same type of shoes here

And it's made differently too

[kindred comet]

those shoes have diff proportions

[zealous fjord]

Same for the hands, which are separate from the rest of the arm

[kindred comet]

and are made to look more like flip flops

i swear its so hard to find an event where the shoes are off

okay found one

399 002

not seeing Mss though

nvm that was a duplicate event...?

i think the right one is 485_210

not seeing msss weirdly enough

[zealous fjord]

Some Takemi events and Futaba rank 10 with the romance have the shoes off

Takemi event are E713_XXX

Futaba's is E709_101

[kindred comet]

good catch, thanks

okay i ended up guessing right anyway

but it is definitely in the futaba event as well

heres the evt if you want to include it in r&v

@ruby adder could you send the Seiza pose you made? but before you do please delete the facial keyframes since they might conflict with blend anims

[ruby adder]

I've only created the pose for the first frame so far...

[kindred comet]

That's okay, I can easily apply it to the rest of the frames

[ruby adder]

In the first frame, all bones are keyframed. Should I just delete the keys for the face part from here?
Since it's a meditative state, I had the eyes closed.

[kindred comet]

Yes

Blend animations usually take care of closing the eyes

its a bit hard to see in vanilla due to joker's glasses but he does open his eyes when morgana says its time to leave

[ruby adder]

@kindred comet Is this okay? I'm still getting used to Blender, so I apologize if there are any issues.

[ashen sapphire]

finally downloading dis bcz im done with my p5r playthrough.. woo

[kindred comet]

It seems to crash my blender when opening, what blender version are you on?

nevermind, i got it to open with 4.3

[ruby adder]

@kindred comet Blrender 4.0 Would like to export to GAP with a different file name?

[kindred comet]

That shouldn't be necessary, I managed to get it working

[ruby adder]

Sorry about that. I'll update Blender.

[kindred comet]

It's okay! You don't need to update anything, I just primarily use an older version (3.5)

[ruby adder]

@kindred comet After rotating the parent bone as a group to create the pose, adjusted the tip, so there might be some interference. I did leave a little margin between the bones, though...

[kindred comet]

I got it to look like this, is this ok?

[ruby adder]

Instead of crossing hands, place them with fingertips touching to make it look more natural.

It's a bit rough, but it's something like this. and It's best to keep fingers closed and straight.

[kindred comet]

Understood, thank you for the example

weird, it seems like she doesnt close her eyes anyway

well i'll probably just edit the evt again

and call for the eyes closed anim

i'll look into that later though

heres the gap in case you would like to review or modify it

[ashen sapphire]

woah.. a way of life!

[haughty terrace]

Can anyone help with this? I have just downloaded the newest version off of gamebanana but when I try and open the config file I get this.

There is a good possibility this is just a steamdeck problem, the steamdeck loooves not working sometimes

[snow aspen]

The updates can be bad I’d reinstall from GB

[haughty terrace]

Still no dice :/ also get this when trying to launch

And weirdly enough after going back into reloaded 2 the mod has disappeared entirely from my mod list

[urban anvil]

i dunno if thhis was fixed or something but a waaaay old sumi protag config file caused similar issues before

[haughty terrace]

I did just try and delete an old test build to install the latest one so that sounds about right

Have just reinstalled reloaded entirely, wish me luck lol

[urban anvil]

That probably works

the old config file is conflicting with the new one or something like that

[trail topaz]

I see deck wallpaper

[urban anvil]

fellow steam deck user

[haughty terrace]

I’ve got a toxic relationship with my deck

I absolutely love it but my god nothing on this world winds me up like it

[haughty terrace]

Re installation didn’t work, I’ve deleted the old build from the mod directory but is there anywhere else it could be ?

[urban anvil]

Yes

i'm gonna look where it goes

[haughty terrace]

Thank you 🙏

[urban anvil]

User/mods

p5rpc.kasumiasprotag

the config.json there might still be the "old one"

[haughty terrace]

Thank you! I’ll give it a go rn

[urban anvil]

so deleting that should cause it to update or something...?

i forgot what i did but that was my main issue when i had it

[haughty terrace]

I’ll try and delete that and maybe reinstall through the reloaded browser itself

[urban anvil]

yeah

honestly deleting the whole folder and reinstalling the mod might work

[haughty terrace]

Just have to try and find the directory on the deck lol

[kindred comet]

For future reference refer to pins if you're having the config issue

im not even sure how old test builds are still circulating and why theyre even being installed

[haughty terrace]

I had installed it aaaaages ago and only just now tried to update it

[kindred comet]

Oh that makes sense

[urban anvil]

if you know where your reloaded.exe is

[haughty terrace]

I’m honestly so thick I was searching in the steam compat data for ages oh my days

Working! Thank you sm for the help :)))

not really, it was already retargeted to begin with

i just made the pose more like kasumi

wow awesome!

[kindred comet]

and it transitions in/out smoothly

we get closer and closer to full animation replacement every day

atlus pisses me off

not only does p5 have a billion one time animations, duplicate gaps, and random differences like this

but also p3 reload has far less one time animations than ps2

and looks horrible

[craggy ice]

749_000 - 749_009

[kindred comet]

im in constant despair but also appreciation for the amount of detail in p5

pain

do you have the id for 3rd sem

[craggy ice]

one sec

751_000-751_095

[kindred comet]

thanks

[craggy ice]

np

[kindred comet]

okay im just gonna reuse the 3rd semester one i made then

should be fixed now

[craggy ice]

yay

zylvos was confused too when he looked lol

he was like "i swear wisteria did this one" but it was a

[kindred comet]

bad game uninstalling p5

[spice grotto]

Tru

[thorn nimbus]

Ahh alright, makes sense

[kindred comet]

this was bugging me so i finally decided to stop being lazy and tweak the door animations

being a mod creator is fun because i spent an hour tweaking these instead of actually playing the game

[spice grotto]

[deep stirrup]

They look great

[oak field]

I'm late but OMG YAY, this got under my skin tbh but honestly, it's really hard to tell which nitpicks are just nitpicking too much, so I just end up living with things as they tend to be since I'm genuinely grateful every time for things as they already are, and it gets to a point where I start feeling like I'm not if I bug you over every little specific detail, or in this case, animation(s).

[kindred comet]

to be honest the main reason why i fixed it is bc it was bugging me, i didnt really care beforehand since i was only really playing the game to briefly test animations

also have to fix the hair doing this

girl me too

[ashen sapphire]

Damn what happened

[kindred comet]

gonna finally try and do something about the persona get mask

also by any chance does anyone know where the showtime epls are

i forgor

nvm i think i found it

[ashen sapphire]

its admirable how fast you get working on these kind of things

[astral chasm]

and here I was thinking you were finally just playing the game and enjoying it like a regular player lol how’s it feel playing for real after all this time and after only modding it?

[kindred comet]

still have no idea why this darkened face part wont go away

[zealous fjord]

Maybe because it's the mesh for the shadow of the mask. It's not longer darkened, but it still doesn't disappear

[kindred comet]

the blend anim is calling for the material to go away so it should go away, its not present in blend anim 26

[zealous fjord]

Does it work with the Sumire models (= not my alternate model)?
I've checked and the material has the same name for both models

[kindred comet]

good question

its usually based on material slot id, not the name weirdly enough

ok well it didnt give me a cutin but i think it does work

nvm it doesnt

mood fr

victory run should be fixed, i just ended up making a new blend anim for it

in the event it doesnt we blow up everyone in the building

[spice grotto]

She’s so happy

[kindred comet]

okay i fixed it

i was targeting the wrong material so i just copied it from blend 26

@zealous fjord heres the updated smug aoa facial dat

although i might end up updating this again later

[craggy ice]

yay no more dark face!

[kindred comet]

this will be a pretty rare occasion but if anyone would like to test this build out here's the download link, specifically look out for the victory animation and if the mask disappears (you have to be using the phantom thief leotard outfits)

https://pixeldrain.com/u/TkhNDyQJ

i have work in like an hour and a half so i cant test it

[craggy ice]

I'll try it out since I use your base mod

when i get home

[kindred comet]

[hollow canyon]

Way to go!

[zealous fjord]

I'll test this build, since I'm already testing the new "kasumified" models for the next update. I can wait for the smug facial dat if need to edit it again

[kindred comet]

I would just include it if I were you

idk if I'll actually end up editing it

[zealous fjord]

The mask seem to disappear correctly when using a Persona

However, it still takes some time to reappear during the victory animation and the face still plays the animation

Which is very noticeable when the option is disabled

[kindred sonnet]

you know its odd I have never had that pop up

but maybe its because I only ever really run rin's outfit or loungeware with ponytail

[urban anvil]

i also haven't seen this and i don't change outfits

maybe I'm not paying attention

[spice grotto]

I love the eye details

[zealous fjord]

It seems to happen when the protag gives the killing blow when targeting a weakness/criting (which makes the cutin happen and makes the animation last longer)

Otherwise, seems to be fine

[kindred comet]

it's rly inconsistent

I can't get it to reproduce consistently even if it's a weakness hit

also make sure smug aoa isn't in use

and try seeing if it happens with Sumire

[zealous fjord]

Yeah, so without the smug aoa, the mask is here, but the face beneath is still black

You won't see that with the undarkened face option enabled

Also, I can get this bug to happen consistently against Chimeras in this palace

They're weak to Wind/fire so it's an easy weakness kill

You can find them in the first room of the palace

I mean here

[kindred comet]

that's fine I can definitely fix that then

[kindred comet]

yeah they're my lab rats and it's never super consistent for me

[kindred comet]

evil creature

[craggy ice]

said i would test it when i get home
proceeds to procrastinate 4 hours on homework instead

also that is very cursed

[kindred comet]

idk why its doing that

[craggy ice]

ok i play with undarkened faces so we'll see how this goes

mementos time

[kindred comet]

its like the more i try to fix it the more it revolts at me

yeah so idk how to get the normal eyes back without just causing them to get nuked

they look fine in the beta dev thing

also her face is shiny

okay i think i fixed it

setting the keyframes to 0 instead of -1 seemed to do it

[craggy ice]

i think we talked about some animations you still haven't done yesterday - the animation when you enter the thieves den is still joker's

[kindred comet]

yeah im aware of that one

iirc it looked obnoxious to edit so i never edited it

[craggy ice]

lmao

[craggy ice]

cutie

[kindred comet]

@zealous fjord

next kap update will be more of a polishing update:

• Facial animations for victory run
• No darkened face fully works properly now
• FINALLY fixed the mask disappearing during victory run
• (To do) Replace persona get mask with Violet/Rose's

god this looks so much better

idk why atlus even added face darkening to begin with

it looks bad, especially on costumes

[gritty orbit]

maybe it's supposed to be the blood from when they first rip off their mask.

[craggy ice]

i actually had no idea their eyes turned yellow when summoning their persona

[craggy ice]

that's implied to only happen during their awakening

...is your mouse cursor the wii cursor wisteria

[urban anvil]

😭

[craggy ice]

GADBHHJSDBFSDH

[kindred sonnet]

I thought they tended to use white to censor blood in most anime

and or games

[plucky rapids]

isnt that a specifically china thing

[craggy ice]

yes

japanese censorship is a bit more vague

it can be multiple things

[plucky rapids]

also who remembers that one higurashi screencap parody edit

[craggy ice]

but i doubt the darkened face was meant to be blood censorship? since the game is rated mature lmao

[craggy ice]

idk if i wanna know

even though it is rated matuee though some things are still censored... like underage drinking (persona 4) and... rising sun imagery i guess

[plucky rapids]

someone made fun of the white blood censorship thing by editing a higurashi gou screencap that already had a cartoonish amount of blood

it looks as stupid as youd expect lmao

[craggy ice]

i've seen the zoro one

and a lot of invicible ones lmao

[craggy ice]

BAHAHA

I'VE SEEN THAT ONE

[plucky rapids]

its so dumb lololololol

[craggy ice]

the photoshop colorize tool can cause some interesting images

anyway i have no idea why atlus would have the darkened faces

maybe it was an leftover of some kind they just never fixed

[kindred comet]

probably was intentional since they added it to sumire too

just looks feo

[craggy ice]

honestly. may just be a poor attempt at showing the shadow of their hand

[kindred sonnet]

right its china i wasnt sure lol

but yeah the memes about the white censorship are everywhere

[kindred comet]

[craggy ice]

[urban anvil]

what ive always thought

[kindred comet]

no idea how to edit this one since the gmd doesnt even seem to export with a mesh

[kindred comet]

i think it has something to do with this being a 2d model

[kindred comet]

@grizzled crystal would you happen to know anything about this

[grizzled crystal]

uhhhhhh

[kindred comet]

i just wanna swap the mask out for violet's mask, mask_in just uses a 3d model whereas mask_out seems to use a 2d one so idk how to replace it

mask_in was ez

[grizzled crystal]

can i see the timeline tree

[kindred comet]

1 sec i just closed rpcs3

exp has more shit but uses the same thing for the mask

epl in case you wanna look at it

[grizzled crystal]

oh the 2d one just uses a normal gmd

[kindred comet]

yeah but that gmd shows nothing in gfdstudio/blender

in blender it doesnt even import a mesh

oh and if i try changing the material it just doesnt show the mask

and usually breaks the other effects

[grizzled crystal]

does the gmd have an epl in it

bc i think it might be an epl in a gmd

[kindred comet]

it has nothing

exported the parts/ep if that helps at all

[grizzled crystal]

it's an epl embeded in the anim lmfao

[kindred comet]

????

oh my god bruh picture

[grizzled crystal]

should work hopefully

[kindred comet]

thanks

[grizzled crystal]

np

[kindred comet]

was wondering why the anim was like 500kb

epl injector dies when i drag and drop it onto the exe

okay it does actually preview in the epl editor

[kindred comet]

nvm it was

literally just because .epl wasnt capitalized

[ruby adder]

TEX\2001_43_00.dds & 2001_56_00.dds
Are there any plans to change these two to the Kasumi version?

[kindred comet]

do they show up like that ingame

[ruby adder]

yse. I checked the actual device yesterday.
I also checked the contents of Kasumi as protagonist joker¥1¥TEX¥ and found no .dds with the same name.

[kindred comet]

i'll look into it at some point

a lot of the flashback images are duplicates so it might already be there but with the wrong name

[ruby adder]

Is it because these two .dds are not located in BASE.CPK but in TEX in EN&JP.CPK respectively?

[kindred comet]

im not super sure, i just remember there being a ton of duplicates

[craggy ice]

lmao i just got a bug where kasumi just disappeared from her bed

[kindred comet]

@grizzled crystal how exactly did you copy the embedded epl to a separate file? im trying to do the inverse and copy the epl back into the anim

[grizzled crystal]

oh just grabbed it from the flag1000000data and added the epl header to the top

[kindred comet]

oh that entire block?

[grizzled crystal]

yeah just the epl section

[kindred comet]

what does the header look like just by itself
