(P5R PC) Rose & Violet - Story overhaul

[limpid shoal]

yeah

https://sewer56.dev/FileEmulationFramework/emulators/spd.html#id-notation i followed this to rip them

[lethal geode]

yeah i cant tell if the artifacts are from paint.net or from the dds compression

idt its the dds compression though

did you use magic want to color it in?

[limpid shoal]

i used paint bucket and paintbrush lfmao

i didnt know magic wand exists

[lethal geode]

that would be why

i dont think paint.net even aliases its selections

give me a bit

[limpid shoal]

btw wist, i just noticed your kasumi panel for ||the maruki 1v1 punching battle|| is slightly misaligned downwards

i disabled epic and loaded the fight with mod meu

[lethal geode]

i probably wont fix that, i dont really feel like dealing with that battle again (ive had to test it so much 😭)

[limpid shoal]

the fix is easy actually

[lethal geode]

yeah i just cba to do it

[limpid shoal]

the fix is just copying spr 52 into spr 186

[lethal geode]

what

i thought i used 52 for 186

well in that case i'll just do a proper fix for 186 then

anyways @limpid shoal pop this in and see if they look any better

[limpid shoal]

🫡

[lethal geode]

actaully i messed up the hair color on 77, so this one should be better

[limpid shoal]

no artifacts

W

[limpid shoal]

@random hinge

tested no artifacts, add wisteria's if you want to make it an option

[random hinge]

Alright, thank you @limpid shoal and @lethal geode ! I'll add them in the next update

[molten lark]

hey, is there a reason why the aoa doesnt show any faces?

[random hinge]

The first AOA (with Violet and the protag) doesn't show the faces

[molten lark]

ah

[random hinge]

The ones after always shows the small portraits

[molten lark]

thatd do it yeah

now to fix her having her costume in the overworld

[pseudo dock]

turn off overworld outfits in costume framework

[molten lark]

i know

already did it, i turned it on because i thought it would be funny

it was but not that funny

[pseudo dock]

ok then

[molten finch]

Goodness was he like this in the base game? I'm not surprised if he does this

[merry coyote]

I want to skip levelling up social stats and some confidants so I can focus solely on enjoying the mod

[radiant plume]

yeah that's an unedited line iirc lol

[granite wren]

Yeah no Yusuke is the only person I'd trust saying strip
He's purely there for the art

[merry coyote]

Anyone else and it's on sight, but Yusuke really is chill like that

[granite wren]

[surreal ermine]

yes he does this base game. he's very gay

in one of his confidant events i think it's implied they're on a date lololol

[molten finch]

I wonder how this will fit when Kasumi is the Protag in R&V?

[molten finch]

Oh wow, but since this is uneditted while Kasumi is the Protag for R&V

Wonder how that till change to fit for Kasumi there 🤔

Maybe Yusuke is Bi in R&V when Kasumi is the Protag there?

[merry coyote]

...what am I doing wrong here? CE isn't doin' much of anything

[random hinge]

How can I possibly change perfection?

[granite wren]

Tbf I dunno if the Strip line or date thing would need to be changed? Like...
It's Yusuke
You're full of story context to know he's just an artistic gremlin and the protagonist says no either way
It'd be creepy from anyone else but you know he's just a weird little lobster man

[molten finch]

Could see Kasumi saying to Yusuke like "Ew no I won't strip you Pervert" or something like that... 🤔

[random hinge]

Yeah, it works because it's very much in character for him

[granite wren]

If you knew him less well
But Kasumi knows there's not a perverted bone in his body
He almost feels like... really ace-coded

[surreal ermine]

https://tenor.com/view/truth-nuke-truth-true-soyjak-wojak-gif-14828627546768133163

pansexual yusuke is my headcanon

[random hinge]

I've changed Kasumi's reaction. You can actually pick how she reacts too

[molten finch]

True very true

[granite wren]

https://tenor.com/view/persona-5-persona-5-royal-yusuke-kitagawa-passionate-posing-gif-15442670921078754849

He's such a silly guy it's fun to headcanon him in a bunch of ways

[faint elk]

Yes. He said this in vanilla as well.

[molten finch]

Not surprising there lol

[surreal ermine]

the curse

[lyric willow]

pancakechi

[faint ravine]

Bro was not kidding 😭

[surreal ermine]

@random hinge i can't believe you made ann give you a wind amp item just to encourage people to keep morgana. you're so dedicated

or at least ithink... i don't remember this from the vanilla game

[random hinge]

It's an unused event that used to give an unused item (so no stat or anything). I figured I should give an item that can be bought in Kichijoji and somewhat useful, given that Makoto is about to join the team. Might as well try a wind amp accessory, since wind isn't a very strong element (unless you aim for technicals) and it gives the player a reason the keep Morgana around

I think there are a few enemies weak to wind in that palace or the one after too

[surreal ermine]

huh. you should make this a seperate mod. i think it's a good idea

was that whole event unused? i thought i remembered the pork cutlet thing

[random hinge]

Oh well I edited that unused event a bit and the dialogues during the trip to the TV station to make it flow naturally, so it's a bit more elaborate than just restoring an unused event

Those events are technically multiconfidant hangouts that are unused. The diner scene I added is also one

[surreal ermine]

i thought that was an addition

[random hinge]

Those two are too short to be worth a time slot I think

[surreal ermine]

i was like i don't remember this but i also feel like i do

[random hinge]

I think it's also mentioned when you go to Kichijoji with Ryuji the first time

[surreal ermine]

yeah i remembered that

huh. maybe i'm just getting deja vu from something else

oh wait i know

i think i watched these unused events on youtube

[random hinge]

There's one unused event I've wanted to restore where the protag, Ryuji, Yusuke and Haru go to Shinkuju, but I can find a good moment in the story to add them so they'll have to stay "optional"

And I can't figure out how the invitation for the multiconfidant hangouts functions in the flowscript of the scheduler, sooooo

I edited the dialogue in those events, just in case someone decides to make a mod to restore those events

[random hinge]

The events with Sumire during the first week of exams are also unused events, but they were very unfinished

[surreal ermine]

i think a youtuber uploaded a bunch of data-mined unused events one including ||akechi going to a psychiatric hospital at the end, but i guess they wanted to make it more ambiguous if he was alive or not||

||that's why i like to think one day like 10 years later akechi just pops up after being discharged and joker is like what the fuck||

[raw marlin]

That reminds me

||the Sumire event after Madarame confessed was unused too wasn’t it?||

[surreal ermine]

holy shit morgana is fucking op with the wind amp accessory

[merry coyote]

“Zorro, show your might!”

[surreal ermine]

https://tenor.com/view/persona-persona5-morgana-catfish-mona-gif-22879397

[magic magnet]

And magic ability

[golden ice]

Morgana kinda goes crazy in the midgame with that thing ngl

[rich tree]

I decided for giggles to see what I could really get out of the cat. one NG+ run I tweaked his 3rd persona with the severe versions of single and group wind with amp and boost magic ability full 9 yards. 99 all stats better trait.

he could out damage my kasumi against same targets weak to wind

so yeah kitty can get some claws

[surreal ermine]

i built the shit out of akechi one run and i could decimate things with his third awkaenign ability

||and i still had trouble with maruki somehow||

+all my party members including joker were level 99

i'd literally do round-robin buffs/debuffs then smite things

[rich tree]

give everyone your running debilitate

im not even kidding

it beats concentrate and charge by a mile

and only heat riser compares in power

you can even strip the reaper down

[peak drift]

You could probably build up from one of his unused events.

[surreal ermine]

how so? what unused events?

sounds like it would make my job a lot easier, so i'm interested

[peak drift]

I’m not sure which specifically because I sadly don’t know their ID’s but if you go on youtube they have long playlists of all the unused events. It makes it easier to make a new event when knowing what numbers are already being used for another event. Im sure using an unused event and editing it from there will help with not breaking the game or overriding.

https://amicitia.miraheze.org/wiki/Persona_5_Royal/dataR.cpk/event

This page might help with event editing though

[surreal ermine]

yeah amicita wiki is very useful

[surreal ermine]

shouldn't be a problem. all you have to do is add the event to the scheduler script file

yep, i can just keyword search "unused" on the amicita wiki. i'll go through and note any akechi unused events

couldn't find any except an unused akechi third awakening event. they must've been cut earlier in development and not assigned an event number

ok nvm i'm def using the unused thierd awkening

[peak drift]

I think he also had a unused momentos event but I can’t remember what happens in it

It’s been so long since I’ve looked at the unused events

[surreal ermine]

did the gay joker mod use that? they added an event where you have a rematch with him

[peak drift]

I’m not sure

[surreal ermine]

ok this si what i'm gonna do
confession in rank 8 -> third awkening event akechi accepts your confession

that leaves like no time for dates though so rip

or actually i'll push it close to the beginning of the third semester so you can go on dates

[topaz sigil]

Low-key, I'd start the romance earlier.

Perhaps use the interactions he has with the Protagonist early on as flags.

[peak drift]

How would that work with 9 and 10?

[surreal ermine]

well rank 9 and 10 are story triggered

[topaz sigil]

Plant flags on 1-3, then have the decision made at 4.

Slight alterations to dialogue for 5-8.

[surreal ermine]

all of the date events have ||akechi's third semester persona|| though

I'd have to edit the outfit he's wearing and his face models

and idk how to 3d model

since I'm pretty sure third semester akechi has a different expression, right?

[topaz sigil]

I was unaware date events for any of the other characters have alterations to their models.

Beyond outfit changes.

And it's all non-metaverse stuff.

As for expressions, perhaps import existing portraits and models and recycle them?

[peak drift]

I think that’s changing the animation. But I think it might break up the story oddly if you start it earlier then have the auto triggered 9 and 10 which you can’t edit around much.

[topaz sigil]

My thought was to keep the 9-10 as they are. Romance starting at 4 (with flags at 1-3) allows some time to build up the idea of the attraction, which would add to the drama that happens at 8, as well as 9-10.

[surreal ermine]

most confidant event have their bustup models set to "0" which is a trigger for "changes based on the day/season" but when events have set times they will always have their outfit hardcoded in

and in this case, i believe the dev made akechi's dates have his outfit hardcoded since they only take place in the third semester

[peak drift]

They really like to make things harder to edit

[surreal ermine]

well for gay joker, they weren't excpeting other people t otouch their files

so they optimized it for themselves

[topaz sigil]

Which is interesting, since none of his events are date-locked.

[peak drift]

Ohhhh I thought it was the actual game that we were talking about doing that.

[topaz sigil]

They are time-gated.

But only 9-10 and ||third awakening|| are locked to specific dates.

[surreal ermine]

but yes atlus does make things hard to edit because, well, they also weren't expecting people not on the dev team (who have experience with the event files) to touch the files

[topaz sigil]

And even then, 9-10 are still variable to when the player chooses to complete the requirements to unlock them.

They just happen on the same day.

[topaz sigil]

Same.

Well, I don't know much about reusing stuff, since I'm only an audio guy.

But I do feel that constraining Akechi stuff for Kasumi (in this mod) to the third-semester just turns him into a sort of ||Sumire|| equivalent.

[peak drift]

The people at atlus could probably easily fix that problem for themselves if they needed to rearrange events in the timeline so it makes sense

[surreal ermine]

they have proper tools to edit the event files, most likely. we had to make our own unoffical ones

[merry coyote]

...did the reaper get rebalanced?

or did I just seriously miscalculate how early I could fight him?

[topaz sigil]

100% miscalculate.

[merry coyote]

I mean, I made sure I saved before I did it, so no loss, but damn!

[topaz sigil]

The Reaper punishes unoptimized play, but can be brute forced with enough levels/strong enough Personas (or myriadtruthspam).

[merry coyote]

That he does. I'll try again at level 30, where I won't die to one (1) concentrated Megido

[topaz sigil]

If you're anywhere close to being competent with strategy, you can get some pretty early takedowns (my record is a Level 14 with Ann, Ryuji, and Morgana).

Granted, luck is a factor.

The Reaper's AI can do some odd things at times. Also, whether he ambushes you or not matters.

[merry coyote]

I was about to ask, how didya manage that? I was instantly 4-wiped by the reaper despite the fact that I made him ambush me, and was guarding when I saw him concentrate

well, 3-wiped, with Kasumi on death's door, but same thing

[topaz sigil]

Luck via a number of things.

1. He never used Concentrate.
2. He wasted turns with Fire Break, Elec Break, and Wind Break.
3. He spammed Life Leech a ton.
4. Megidola was his favorite skill.
5. Got lucky at dodging a couple of Mudoons and Hamaons.
6. He never used Mamudoon or Mahamaon.
7. He occasionally used Mapsiodyne and Maziodyne when not using Megidola.

I had him Ambush me.

[merry coyote]

ahhh that'd do it

Even then it was a slog I'd bet, since Myriad Truths doesn't hit him that hard (I guess it'd be time for a technical-fest?)

[topaz sigil]

Morgana was set to only heal with Champion's Cup and Media, while I had Joker just spam debuffs. Ryuji and Ann were the damage for the team and I just chipped away for about 15 minutes.

I didn't use DLC.

[surreal ermine]

https://discord.com/channels/746211612981198989/1404649515956441088 Made a thread for my mod specifically so I stop flooding this one and others lol

[topaz sigil]

And followed.

[surreal ermine]

yippee

[merry coyote]

Oh right, I forgot the Ring of Lust was an option

[surreal ermine]

ring of lust kind of sucks

[merry coyote]

It's been too long since I last fought the reaper, so I forgot what I did to win (so often that I stopped fearing him outright)

[topaz sigil]

I mean, it's Diarama + Tarukaja in one.

So it was kind of the hard carry for that Reaper fight.

[merry coyote]

Fair

[limpid shoal]

matarukaja / vitality thermopylae / wealth of lotus auto-mas better

[topaz sigil]

I don't expect to repeat that sort of Reaper fight soon, though. I was going to do it with Kasumi and crew, but I can't imagine my luck will be as good.

[topaz sigil]

No DLC or NG+.

[limpid shoal]

no dlc.

[topaz sigil]

I did it with the basic Personas available to a Level 14 party.

[merry coyote]

Yeah it seems like the biggest thing is to be lucky

And that requires lots of patience and rerolls

[limpid shoal]

yeah

[merry coyote]

failing that, I could try to figure out how to make the damn Cheat Engine work…

Buuut it’ll be a bit before I reach that level of frustration

[rich tree]

what are you trying to do with CE?

as I said I have a working table

[merry coyote]

I’m looking to give myself some items and social stats so I can experience confidants faster

[merry coyote]

Can you send me your table? Maybe it’s just that mine is outdated.

I know it’s not the CE itself, I just updated that thing

[limpid shoal]

mod menu exists

[merry coyote]

where? I’m horribly new to Persona modding in general

[surreal ermine]

https://github.com/ShrineFox/Persona-5-Mod-Menu/releases/tag/1.9

[merry coyote]

Thank you!

[surreal ermine]

np

press the phone button to pull the menu up

[rich tree]

i can send mine

[molten finch]

Wew think this is my go-to Kasumi pick when doing/if I do a playthrough of R&V lol

• Red hair and red eyes(tho if someone can make real Kasumi have that then A+ there lol)
• A mole under the left eye,
• Slightly more angular eye shape and eye brows.
• Kasumi/Rose wearing Violet's Phantom Thief Concept Art, Her Mask is recolored white(inspired by Joker's Mask) & her Leotard has a heart-shape window.
• Silver Rapiers
• Year Pin on her Shujin uniform: "2".

And yeah not sure what else I'm missing there.. 🤔

[surreal ermine]

i jsut switched back to default kasumi over protag. i like the red hair red eyes

i kept the alternate model mod only for the white thief suit bust ups

[molten finch]

Yeah honestly I do love the red hair and red eyes for Kasumi as it suits her real well lol

[molten finch]

And ooh yeah may need the alt model mod for that violet concept phantom thief outfit

[surreal ermine]

yep. that's the default

kasumi over protag has an outfit that has the concept art

i think you just gotta click "costumes" in the config

[molten finch]

This one right?

https://gamebanana.com/projects/36354

Just making sure!

[surreal ermine]

no. the model mod

theo ne you need to play rose and violet

the alternate models mod just slaps some recolors on top

[molten finch]

Do you have a link to it by any chance?

Or was it just alt models mod?

[surreal ermine]

check the rose and violet game banana page. it lsits all the mods you need

[raw marlin]

Must salute it tho it was like a base for Rose 🫡

[molten finch]

Alrighty will do 👍

[molten finch]

Yuup

[molten finch]

Like just having Brown Hair and Brown Eyes for Protag Kasumi right? Just want to make sure!

[surreal ermine]

yeah

when you get there i can tell you which files to delete

to just keep the metaverse bustups

[molten finch]

Ah I'm not on my cpu rn so tommorrow I'll let you know 🫡

When I'll be on my cpu 🫡

[merry coyote]

So, how do I grant my team XP with the mod menu? or can it just not do that?

[raw marlin]

Don’t think that’s an option

Unless there’s something I missed

Why?

[merry coyote]

I have a certain reaper I need to punish

[raw marlin]

Ok but what does this have to do with Rose?

[merry coyote]

Right, I see what you’re saying

So, returning to Rose… liking the story so far

I just put Kamoshida down, and Yusuke will be introducing himself soon

[eager wedge]

the only good thing about losing all my work is that i discovered im missing 6 days of recording, so at least I can make sure there's not a random time jump between parts 4 and 5

[zenith matrix]

Bringing my disguise to the next level.

(Also I said "I'm happy for you, sensei" and got that line in reply. I'm pretty sure Kasumi always calls her sensei though-and no I'm not romancing her.)

[merry coyote]

it's genius! they'll never know it's you!

[random hinge]

Yes

[random hinge]

Yeah, that's the biggest issue with the long hair models. Of course, this is going to happen a few times with the incognito outfit

[rancid falcon]

Makes me think of that old Asterix cartoon where the Romans all drink a potion that makes them spontaneously grow beards.

[lyric willow]

That’s just what my hair looks like when it’s windy outside too Tbf

Just pretend whenever that bug happens a gust of wind came about

[humble trail]

The AOA portrait removal only applies to kasumi or to every party member?

[raw marlin]

Kasumi (I think)

I use the no portrait mod still to be safe

[idle rampart]

what happens if you do unsupported romance

[eager wedge]

it just doesn't have the right pronouns iirc

[eager wedge]

me when im cosy

[faint elk]

YOU DIDN'T NEED TO BURN HER LIKE THAT KASUMI!

[rich tree]

lol

to be fair Kasumi has a point here

[golden ice]

I remember this XD

"Could you please stop grabbing my head? Thanks."

[faint elk]

[alpine lynx]

@random hinge can you please help me cause when I am on 8/26 and they are about to come to leblaic to discuss the swimsuits. The game crashes and closes on its own.

[random hinge]

I'm at work so I can only do so much for now. Can you share your load order?

[humble trail]

just reporting a typo it suppose to be she

[molten finch]

@eager wedge Awaits whenever Part 3 is up 🙏

[eager wedge]

3 MORE HOURS

I'm gonna also make a video on how to install the mod bc so many have been asking how to install it properly

[molten finch]

In my timezone of CST it would be 1PM for me when the part 3 video is up

[molten finch]

Good luck there 🙏

[woeful anvil]

Probably my favorite line from the mod so far lol

[alpine lynx]

@random hinge I have send the load order to you.

[random hinge]

Try disabling "Second-person narration - Feminine". It's not compatible with my mod
Also, I recommend disabling:

• Early Violet : not compatible with Rose & Violet so the dialogues won't match.
• Inaba Exe Patcher : unless there's a mod that needs it, I know it can cause some issues with some flags. Better to disable it, just to be safe

[alpine lynx]

Ok

[random hinge]

Thanks for the report! I'll fix this one in the next update

[faint elk]

July 18th Spoilers: She looks crosseyed and it's funny. Also great outfit Zylvos!

[random hinge]

Yeah, I fixed the movements of the head, but I gave up fixing this. For some reason, Joker does that, but it's much more noticeable with Kasumi

[faint elk]

It's fine. It comes with the territory of modding. Besides. I am having a blast.

YOU NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE IRS! THAT'S HOW THEY GET YOU AKECHI

[radiant plume]

that's an incredible name

[north osprey]

https://tenor.com/view/mr-t-lexify-irs-creepy-knock-smile-gif-14310921

[eager wedge]

one more hour til the next episode

[molten finch]

Wew ik this is a Koei Tecmo game that cannot be modded but I wonder how would this ver of Protag Kasumi in Strikers would look like there

https://youtu.be/PjpyRsGPbSg?si=NaPs-3qQ4pIb9VZY

🤔

[west panther]

does the Rin costume not get the Rin AOA finisher for the R&V?

[random hinge]

No, it's the same AOA finisher for all costumes. I don't think Wisteria's mod has Rin's finisher either

[zenith matrix]

Minor issue (kinda? Maybe not?) with the Lady-Killer's Ballad request in Mementos where Kasumi is not affected by the "Womanizing" (brainwash all female foes) ability the target has.

I mean, even assuming it ignores sexuality, I can also see just leaving it that way as it will result in a full party brainwash if you have no men in the party since he seems to always go first.
Though that'd probably be more a strategic problem for the player to deal with I'd think.

And related question: Should we report problems with persona dialogues (like when you fuse them)? I remember seeing a few that still referred to the player as male but forgot to screenshot them.

[rich tree]

already been brought up and if i remember right its being left as is

[granite wren]

This one was discussed previously and basically came down to "we're leaving it that way to not risk a full party brainwash" and also changing it is hell

same for Kamoshida Lick

[zenith matrix]

Oh sorry should have searched first

[granite wren]

but you should report the fusion dialogues I think

[zenith matrix]

Not that I particularly want Kamoshida to be somehow even more disgusting but unless I'm mistaken the femC mod managed to change it to affect Joker. Perhaps the same method, or even files could be used if the author is willing?

Or was the reason for not doing it only in part about the absurd effort needed for a tiny change and more not wanting to upset the existing game balance?

[random hinge]

You can report the missing pronoun changes with the fusion dialogues, I can fix them

The gameplay changes... I tried to reverse engineer the change they made to Kamoshida, but I don't understand it

Not really worth spending weeks on in my opinion

Especially since Kamoshida never uses his lick on Ann in my playthrough, so I don't want to wait around for him to maybe target the protagonist

But yeah, it's mostly because I have no idea how to do that

[rich tree]

given my preference to only run the girls in my groups I would rather it be left alone

the ribbon blocks it

[surreal ermine]

question: does early Violet straight up not work or is it just mismatched dialogue?

[zenith matrix]

That is also my preference haha, I was half trying to figure out how I'd complete that request without switching out any of the girls on my team.

[zenith matrix]

Oh so I'm not the only one who never saw that ability. I only know about it from the description for the femc mod.
But yes, certainly not worth the effort.

[rich tree]

on my ng+ he dies before he can do much

only thing that doesn't let me one hit him is his phases

I think i have only seen him use that once back

[surreal ermine]

missing out on yusuke's insane phys skills...

[random hinge]

I never bothered to test it with Rose & Violet, but at the very least, the dialogues won't match

[surreal ermine]

to my knowledge all it does is change her dialogue when she talks about wanting to join to fight shido then backs out

to make it so she agrees and joins

idk if any of the in-palace stuff was changed at all

[zenith matrix]

I'd rather channel Aigis's insane phys skills. Plus Kasumi even has a "Firing!" voiceline like Aigis used to say.

[surreal ermine]

holy damage

[eager wedge]

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=znFRix8b-x4 throws this here before passing back out

[granite wren]

tbh I think it'd be a fun challenge run or something to do
Yusuke needs a rest from carrying the rest of the team

https://tenor.com/view/yusuke-yusuke-kitagawa-persona-persona5-dancing-gif-21856121

[random hinge]

I mentioned this a few days ago, but I've managed to make the "Jazz Club Drink Select" mod compatible with Rose & Violet. I've also made additional edits to Sumire dialogues when inviting her to the Jazz club, since I felt the current dialogues were a bit lacking. This adjustement will be included in the next update.

[lethal geode]

I won't miss!
Hasta la vista!
I won't go down!

[radiant plume]

those are the voicelines they use in srb2kart lol

[lethal geode]

good

the best voice lines

I love the srb2kart persona sprites so much

[merry coyote]

So, here’s an interesting question. If left to her own devices, what would Rose name the Phantom Thief group?

[surreal ermine]

YIPPEEE

[jagged dome]

Maybe Palace of Sloth/Wrath?

[merry coyote]

I thought Sae was wrath

But it’s been a while since I played her palace so I could be wrong

[granite wren]

||Futaba|| is Wrath

Sae is Envy

cuz she's envious of her sister

A bit literal but things sound cooler in other languages (or at least they do to me when I don't speak that language) so "Vitta Saltatores" or "Ribbon Dancers" in Latin.
Goes with her whole rhythmic gymnast thing.

[molten finch]

Currently watching the playthrough right now 👀

[mental owl]

This screenshot confirmed something funny for me, in that character (sometimes? all the time??) sometimes still look at you as if you were still Joker's height rather than Kasumi's.

[molten finch]

Good playthrough so far, can't wait to see the first appearance of Maruki after defeating Kamoshida & his place lol

[eager wedge]

thank you so much!!!!!!!!!

[molten finch]

Your welcome 🙌

[rapid mural]

You have summoned me.

BAILAMOS!!!!

let the rhythm take you over BAAAAAILAAAAMMOOOOSSSS!!!!

[rich tree]

is always rank up compatable?

[raw marlin]

Nope

So you gotta play it dare I say normally

[rich tree]

just making sure its not in the list of uncompatable mods

[merry coyote]

I dunno. I've been using it and it seems fine.

yep, it's explicitly compatible

[molten finch]

well now on CPU rn so downloading the mods for folder rn

[surreal ermine]

delete everything in characters -> joker -> 1 EXCEPT for BATTLE -> GUI and FONT -> SELECT -> CUTIN_001_000.dds

and delete the costumes folder

[molten finch]

ahh okay noted and on the file folder or reloaded II one?

[surreal ermine]

huh? wdym? it's the alternate models folder you put in your reloaded 2 mods folder

[molten finch]

ahh okay

[surreal ermine]

in game, go into costumes and select "sister's leotard"

make sure in custom bonus tweaks you have "costumes in cutscenes" enabled

...does sister's lotard recolor the hair? idk

it might

if not i think there's an alt sister's leotard but it doesn't recolor the mask

[molten finch]

ahh okay, I'll see what can I do there

[vocal kettle]

Can anyone hook me up whit the updated zip for both the alternative models mods and the updated zip for Rose & Violet ?

I don't know why, but when i tell Reloaded to update it Reloaded crashes.

And when i try to download on gamebanana it straight up doesn't work.

No need.

I found the google drive link on gamebanana!

[molten finch]

So I just want to make sure
for Alternate Models Mod Folder

Delete

1. Characters
2. Joker
3. 1
4. GUI
5. FONT
6. SELECT
7. CUTIN_001_000.dds
8. Delete Costume Folder

but don't delete
BATTLE

[surreal ermine]

delete everything except the gui folder and cutin_001_000.dds

[molten finch]

ah and don't delete Battle folder or that needs to be delete right?

[surreal ermine]

delete everything in the battle folder except for gui

[molten finch]

ahh okay

[molten finch]

Hopefully I did this correctly

[surreal ermine]

yes

[molten finch]

alrighty

and next I delete SELECT folder in FONT folder right?

(just want to make sure!)

[surreal ermine]

no. dlete everything in the select folder except CUTIN_001_000.dds

[molten finch]

This one?

[surreal ermine]

delete everything except for the phantom thief suit bustup

[molten finch]

Like this right?

[surreal ermine]

yeah

[molten finch]

okok and I guess that's all unless I'm missing something.. 🤔

[surreal ermine]

you're good

[molten finch]

ahh okok then next I delete all of costumes folder from this right?

[surreal ermine]

ye

[molten finch]

okok

[molten finch]

I think that's all rn

[surreal ermine]

yep

[molten finch]

Can't wait to enjoy Red Hair Color and Red Eye Color Real!Kasumi there~

[surreal ermine]

yippee!!

[foggy mural]

And what if that mementos mission was changed into the guy being a girl? Then again, I suppose that is also way too much work already for a mere mementos request. Still, this came to me in a dream, so I felt like sharing it.

While I'm at it, thank you to everyone who has been putting effort into this mod, I love my holy trinity of P5R femc mods 🦖❤

[zenith matrix]

Wrong pronoun here in the ?third? saferoom for the|| Depths of Mementos|| . It's one of the consult the team conversations.

[random hinge]

It's likely I forgot that one, given that Joker is replaced with Rose. Thanks, I'll fix it with the next update

[faint elk]

I use Strength Confidant Rework (Bribe.) And i didn't really notice anything wrong with it not even "he" or something.

[livid coyote]

Hey sorry just wanted to ask. When i'm using this Mod, the Amitica MOD Menu seems to be disabled in the metaverse (palaces, mementos) as it only shows the usual menu (Ya know like auto recover etc). It still works on the overworld, but i have to disable the mod to use it in palaces/mementos. Is there a reason for this?

[zenith matrix]

I do believe that "friend" is supposed to be in it's plural form here both in context and grammatically.

[eager wedge]

yep

[zenith matrix]

And apologies for spamming these but I think that second "your" should have a "with" in front of it.

[idle rampart]

did this mod make you could do kawakami coop in summer vacation? I think she isn't available during summer vacation at first

[granite wren]

Could reword it to "Are you enjoying time with your family?" tbh so it still fits the text box

[random hinge]

No worries, I'll have them all fixed in the next update. Thanks for reporting them

[random hinge]

I don't remember if she is available during summer break, but I certainly didn't changed anything regarding her availability

[raw marlin]

She’s not

[raw marlin]

I don’t think so I think it can be anyone

[rich tree]

Night Pennant Left Wall over TV Sadayo Kawakami Odaiba Seaside Park
(Only when in a relationship)

the lamp however is not tied to dating anyone

the night pennet is

the only other one that needs rank 8 or romance is the kumade you need Ohya at rank 8 or dating

[humble trail]

isnt lamp suppose to be romacing chihaya?

[rich tree]

not according to wiki i just read

only night pennet and kumede are tied to dating anyone

Ohya and the teacher

https://megamitensei.fandom.com/wiki/Decorations

https://megamitensei.fandom.com/wiki/Sky_Tower_Lamp

as i said its not

I only ever romanced her once yet get it every run

[royal mica]

Finally out of kamoshida arc in my CHN SUB playthrough

[molten finch]

Ooh yeah btw which girl should Kasumi romance? As me doing a future playthrough of it lol

Since rn in the options she has Ann, Makoto, Hifumi, Haru and Futaba

[granite wren]

https://tenor.com/view/haru-okumura-persona-5-haru-persona-5-haru-head-empty-gif-9078959612373780263

[molten finch]

Ooh one suggestion of Haru there lol

[raw marlin]

I went with Ann on my playthrough

Who’s best for you my friend and you’ll find your answer since idk if there’s a giving you an idea of who character for Kasumi like what Sumire was to Ren

[molten finch]

Ooh very nice

[raw marlin]

I think she fits what Kasumi would like in a girl

[molten finch]

And I see there

[molten finch]

Thank you for your input there lol

[granite wren]

If we're giving reasoning, I think Haru as another victim of familial expectations would have a really good reason to bond with Kasumi, and they both kinda almost have thatt angry side to them as well with outward politeness on the surface

[molten finch]

Ooh that's a nice constrast and parallel reasoning there 👀

[lyric willow]

I chose Futaba cause I think the whole found family dynamic with Sojiro is cute

Sojiro and his two gay adopted daughters

[molten finch]

Aww that's cute

[magic magnet]

W pick

[golden ice]

I also paired Kasumi with Futaba
My silly headcanon for my playthrough is that Kasumi fell for Yusuke's autism but it didn't go anywhere, but then she later fell for Futaba's autism

[granite wren]

tbh Futaba absolutely would be my second choice if not for Haru she's very valid

[golden ice]

I was debating between Haru and Futaba up to the eleventh hour lol because they're both great
It's just the late recruitment that cuts off some story things that always puts me off. Will probably choose Haru on the next playthrough tho.

[granite wren]

https://tenor.com/view/minecraft-movie-flint-and-steel-gif-4491320584761369279

[golden ice]

Also can we talk about how Haru just casually has fine china in her room as a decoration
She's so clinically rich it's hilarious

[granite wren]

True icon

[molten finch]

Ohh that's nice there lol

[wind narwhal]

rank 3 Justice might need a do-over, I don't think Kasumi would make a convincing body double for Akechi no matter how dressed up she is

also i just want to say this is an astounding mod overall, especially since until a few days ago I wasn't even aware this game had a modding community

and thank you for providing a comprehensive load order to everything, going the extra mile like that helps so much

[random hinge]

Thanks, glad you like it!

[random hinge]

I didn't write that one seriously, more of joke or "let's get you dressed up and see if you like it so much". I think he also has a bit of a "androgynous" look, so I figured that could work both ways. Also, since they're rivals, it a bit more spiteful to force you to dress as your rival
If you guys have better ideas, I'll take them

[faint elk]

Welp E.P.I.C Party Panel in color is not compatible with Kasumi's mod anyway. Despite saying it is. Not your mod Zylvos. So it's not your issue.

[random hinge]

I think this is a misunderstanding, E.P.I.C Party Panel isn't currently compatible with Kasumi as Protagonist

[faint elk]

https://tenor.com/view/bruh-gif-10397266617194121558

[random hinge]

They refactored the mod to make it compatible if Wisteria adds a configure option for it

[faint elk]

Ohhhhh.

[random hinge]

Which they will do iirc

I need to the same for my alternate models mod

[faint elk]

July 27th Spoilers: I been waiting for this. And i do not feel disappointed at all.

July 27th Spoilers:
||Also how did Sojiro come to that conclusion? That they just happen to be fighting?||

[rich tree]

whats funny is you can already be in a full romance with makoto for this

My last save I romanced her before the bank was even done lol

[topaz sigil]

I mean, if I think back to the last time I saw a pair of girls fighting in my college days (I think one of them called the other some c h o i c e words), they eventually did end up taking each other to the floor before a couple of the guys and a security officer could split them up.

Leg grabs to try and trip them? I could vaguely see it.

[faint elk]

Ah.

[topaz sigil]

Don't ask about the words. They'd get you canceled yesterday with how bad they were.

[topaz sigil]

If I may give my take for Rank 3 Justice...

Perhaps change the concept from "stunt double" to "confidant".

The Dr. Watson to Akechi's Sherlock Holmes, more or less.

#E.P.I.C mod not working

[faint elk]

Oh. Dammit i forgot about that. Thanks.

[limpid shoal]

get the one sent by wisteria

mine had some artifacting issues that wist managed to fix

[faint elk]

Alright i did that.

[faint ravine]

I tried downloading theirs but my game kept crashing

[limpid shoal]

it works fine for me

you just need to replace the dds files with wist's inside the BATTLE/GUI folder

[rich tree]

I just dopped the gui folder here

[limpid shoal]

seems about right

[rich tree]

havent booted the game up yet

working on daily stuff in ZZZ right now

[limpid shoal]

@faint ravine here extract this new GUI folder inside Characters/Joker/1/FEmulator/SPD/BATTLE in the alt models mod folder

if done correctly it shouldn't crash

[faint ravine]

It works thank you

[zenith matrix]

I am obligated to suggest Makoto. For reasoning I'd say that she has that "straight"-laced personality that's easily flustered by positive attention that'll bring out a bit of a teasing side to Kasumi (since, before her arrest, she was used to trying to elicit reactions from Sumire). This eventually leads to romantic love as it allows both of them to slowly move beyond their reserved politeness.

Plus they both got
-Sister-not-acting-like-herself issues,
-Are good students (One of the reasons Kasumi was moved up a year was her good grades if I recall correctly),
-Sae approves of dependable people (in terms of who Makoto should date) and Kasumi is the forever dependable older sister, (but is also younger than Makoto letting Kasumi experience being the doted upon younger sister every so often. (Though I like to imagine she gets a bit of that from all of the Phantom Thieves except Futaba and Morgana anyway)
-Some bonding over being the leader and strategist of the team respectively and the resulting additional understanding of how the other thinks.
-And the least important reason of them all!
I really like Makoto. She's cool and my gay little heart melts every time her intelligence shines through and all the cute noises she makes.
...So yeah I may be a bit biased in my reasoning.

[rich tree]

i forgot the game moves sooty armor between ng+ saves

i hadn't checked my inventory at the store that buys them in awhile

[faint elk]

I replaced mine.. I'm just gonna take from this tommorow. I stayed up.

[molten finch]

Ooh now that's a long list of reasonings there, you did a good job on that one lol 👀

[surreal ermine]

i'm so curious what is this bot

i've seen it a lot on this server

[radiant plume]

i think it's not quite nitro but i could be wrong

[surreal ermine]

yeah no i got nitro so

[radiant plume]

no i mean that's the bot's name

lmao

@trim plaza

[surreal ermine]

oh LMAOO

[surreal ermine]

...i wouldn't be so sure about that, akechi

[spare oak]

akechi secretly wears tight clothing like the freak he is

[jovial jewel]

Is there an option or setting to fix some of the animations that are out of place?

Or have I fucked up somehow?

[surreal ermine]

they'll always look like that because kasumi's arms and legs are shorter than joker's

no real way to fix it

the one you got there looks like a bug tho

oh or not i was looking at it wrong

[jovial jewel]

Ah, it's not a deal breaker or anything. Just wasn't sure if I configured something wrong.

[surreal ermine]

dw i burst out laughing every time something looks strange

especially in cutscenes when the camerais above kasumi's head

[jovial jewel]

Thanks for replying! I'm really looking forward to this mod.

[surreal ermine]

i got this funny one of kasumi with a bob

[random hinge]

I don't think I'm seeing what's wrong with that one. Is it the phone?

[eager wedge]

The phone isn't in her hands

[random hinge]

Just so guys know: some of the props are not attached to the character's hand but actually have separate animations (like the coffee cup). This animations would need to be edited and timed to Kasumi's

Which is very difficult

Wisteria tried with one coffee cup in Haru's confidant. They don't like to talk about it, ahah

[zenith matrix]

Rank 6 Faith Confidant description needs an "s" at the end of "feeling" I believe.

[rich tree]

i think one of the funniest is when padawan kasumi plays pool with everyone

[lusty cape]

Just a silly fanart dedicated on rose & violet story overhaul

[vestal briar]

Talking about being insensitive...

[rich tree]

I mean it is Ryuji

[random hinge]

Thanks, I should have it fixed in the next update

[random hinge]

That's a strange looking evoker... 👀

[humble trail]

zylvos will next update have neptune menu art?

[eager wedge]

Hour and 20 minutes till the next episode

[random hinge]

Probably, I still need to reinstall VScode and GIT to make the configure options

[lyric willow]

I love his relationship with Kasumi so much lol

[errant zenith]

Now this…

https://tenor.com/view/satono-diamond-its-peak-peak-uma-musume-uma-musume-pretty-derby-gif-14473982584760202424

[golden ice]

Itchy and Scratchy skit

[hollow owl]

I can’t wait til more art of r&V

[zenith matrix]

I'd love to see replacements for the Steam card and background with a R&V one. Unfortunately my art skills can't even reliably produce stick figures.

[errant zenith]

Plz!

I need more

[hollow owl]

I kinda made one using an existing photo and using gimp

[merry coyote]

At last I had the chance to meet Yusuke. It's kinda funny, knowing how his intro is, and how harmless the guy is at heart - but anybody else would need to have their heart myriad-truthed

[eager wedge]

https://youtu.be/qSTj0Zv2cAs call me briar cus i was dead asleep

[golden ice]

He has like, the worst first impression
And then the worst second impression
And then after that's he's awesome

[errant zenith]

Eh?

[merry coyote]

What song replaces Keeper of Lust, again? I know I saw the name somewhere but I just can't recall it

nvm found it, it's Show to Remember

[lean sky]

Kasumi “telekinesis” Yoshizawa

[surreal ermine]

please don't joke about that kasumi

[raw marlin]

She knew about the original timeline all along

Maybe the original Kasumi in the original timeline was Rose Kasumi all along and went back to her timeline after her role in the original and has the same power as the P5X cast and unintentionally used it before she got arrested

[surreal ermine]

i have a little headcanon that joker has been going through an endless time loop and decided to make a drastic change like pushing someone else into his role to see if it would end the timeloop or save akechi or something

that's why i think having a mod that has joker as the unused world arcana would be fun

someone's doing joker as the temperance arcana but timeloop joker would def be world

[eager wedge]

Oooh i really like that. If i had modding skills I'd make it

[raw marlin]

Like Henry in Bendy and the Ink machine and Kasumi, Akage, Akechi, Nagisa, and even Futaba got caught in the crossfire by being in his shoes in that separate timeline

[surreal ermine]

i could 100% make the story but i'd need someone else to insert joker into the field...

idk how to do much flowscript editing

joker's confidant would 100% be useless though bc there's no world arcana personas except dlc

i guess i could changhe some to be world

[raw marlin]

And that DLC is not even his Persona

[surreal ermine]

could change briar and stanael to worl

d

[raw marlin]

He’s just piggybacking off the last guy

[surreal ermine]

idk what other non-dlc personas i'd change to world

[raw marlin]

Satanael, Briar/Raoul/Prynne are the only things but problem is one is DLC and the other is only on NG+

[surreal ermine]

i could pick out some random ones

[raw marlin]

Another problem is that Kasumi ||gets The World at the end of the game||

[surreal ermine]

in the mod or the original game?

[raw marlin]

Both

[surreal ermine]

cuz in the og game it goes unused i thought

oh that should be an easy fix

[raw marlin]

Was the last thing you get in the Velvet Room

[surreal ermine]

does it actually say "world rank 10" bc i swear i do not remember that

i remember that from persona 4

[raw marlin]

The World was not an SL in any way you were just given the arcana and nothing more in both the base and Rose

[vestal briar]

Hey where's you beauty mark? (Press X to doubt)

[surreal ermine]

i like the red hair red eyes

it goes good with rhe red and white leotard too

[raw marlin]

Red hair Kasumi has that too?

[surreal ermine]

yeah but it's jsut called "white leotard"

the pure white is called "white leotard alt"

which i think i got from the kasumi over protag addon collection

anywho that idea is way far beyond my capabilities at the moment

so prob won't happen

[surreal ermine]

ok this is a little less funny than when i named them Akechi's ass

[random hinge]

Well, you can now interpret fan arts of Kasumi and Sumire as R&V fan arts, ahah 👀

[faint elk]

Kasumi. Why are you using the force instead of your arms. You're lifting the children with your mind!

WHAT DO YOU MEAN TOO HEAVY

[lean sky]

R&v sequel where kasumi uses her telekinesis powers to become insanely good at baseball instead of gymnastics

Note:the telekinesis has nothing to do with metaverse stuff

[faint ravine]

That would be so funny if they added a scene where she has full on telekinesis as a joke

[eager wedge]

that genuinely would be funny

[lean sky]

Maruki accidentally gave her telekinesis instead

“Azathoth TF how do I take it back?”

[faint ravine]

During the fistfight she launches maruki into the monacopter and they do an AOA on him

[vestal briar]

Oh I'm definitely going to draw the floating pizza meme with Kasumi

[faint ravine]

Kats a skin for her so half credit ig

[lean sky]

Hang on

https://youtu.be/Pl48Z3fZPF0?si=fnDpXCuRzhdF725U

Someone HAS to do this with akechi and kasumi.

[faint elk]

LOL.

[lean sky]

P5T(t for telekinesis)

[faint elk]

A better P5T than the actual P5T. (Repaint your heart excluded.)

[lean sky]

If I write a fanfic for this I WILL include the telekinesis

[lean sky]

Actually that makes me wonder(lol) how repaint your heart would go in this timeline

[lusty cape]

Akechi: pouring syrup on his pancake

Kasumi: Blows up pancakes with mind

Akechi: My fucking pancake- explodes

[lean sky]

I mean in that time period in both games the thieves know akechi is up to no good and probably the black mask, so I imagine kasumi would be less then enthusiastic to be stuck with a serial killer and her distinctly killable (if semi-competent with her persona) sister for a while

[idle rampart]

mod expression? I remember Ann didn't have that as original

[limpid shoal]

could be a leftover from vanilla p5

[bitter walrus]

it has to be

that definitely looks like p5 ann

[random hinge]

Yeah, the bustups still exists in the game files so I reused that one (since the Royal variant with that outfit doesn't exist)

[hollow owl]

That is true lol, actually have a collection of them, but a girl wants more ya know hehe

[sharp ravine]

I saw some discussion about the unused World confidant here and I'll give a detail I learned while I've been working on adding the hope confidant to the Sophia apps mod. It does not link to the world arcana despite what the link name and associated dialogue refers to it as, it links to the unused Aeon arcana.

[vestal briar]

Yeah, got my personas maxed out pretty quick thanks to celestial reading. Definitely worth it

[humble trail]

you keep leveling up?

[vestal briar]

Pick two random personas and fuse them during alarm. You'll get a new one with golden glow. Gallow it to the ones you want to max out during alarm. Its stats will increase by 10 in total, randomly distributed. And gallowing during alarm does not exhaust the once per day restriction so you can keep gallowing whenever the alarm is on

Celestial reading increase the chance of triggering fusion alarm greatly so it's very useful

[granite wren]

And you can keep farming more alarms using Ryuji's Instant Kill

[hollow owl]

I’ll have to try that

[eager wedge]

so close to being done with kaneshiro's palace and getting back to where i was recording before everything deleted itself

[humble trail]

the mice form is so cute 😄

[hollow owl]

Be really nice if there was anyway to make the Sumire boss fight hit harder, emotionally that is

[vestal briar]

Like this?

[hollow owl]

Yeah

I think

Brothers and sisters fighting against each other in media can bring all sorts of emotions that leaves you hanging on the edge of your seat

[eager wedge]

just finished kaneshiro's palace/editing it together

[cedar fiber]

I think the only way I could see is something akin to how Mother 3 did it.

Like, Kasumi would randomly refuse to attack, or Sumire would skip her once more if she manages to knock Kasumi down.

...Though, I can't imagine there's any conceivable way of coding that in, nor do I think it'd be fun to play, so XP

[molten finch]

Red Hair & Red Eyes is my fave Protag Kasumi~ 🥳🙌

[surreal ermine]

maybe someone will do red hair red eyes with the mole and angular eyes someday

but I ain't an artist so

[molten finch]

I hope so lol

[molten finch]

Currently finishing watching the playthrough today ❤️

[molten finch]

Finished watching the playthrough and I guess Maruki appears after Kamoshida confesses

Wonder how will play out in R&V

[eager wedge]

Yuppers!

[molten finch]

And yeah when does Sumire appear in R&V again, wanted to see more interaction of Kasumi and her Sister Sumire lol

After Kamoshida's change of heart there

[lean sky]

Someone should mod (or just write a fanfic abt) r&v kasumi in p5x with briar as her persona

[errant zenith]

Idky but seeing Kasumi being the main protag just feels so right

And pleasant

[hollow owl]

Same

[errant zenith]

Also as if I couldn’t hate ryuji more

But nonetheless this is warming my heart

[hollow owl]

The romance with Ann is making my heart pop like a piñata full of candy, The friendship with Futaba makes be happy as heck and Kasumi and Sumire repairing their relationship is so amazing

[errant zenith]

dood im gonna hit Rank 9 with makoto

i love the R&V memes and art

[hollow owl]

Hehe

[errant zenith]

the bond between these twins is just

https://tenor.com/view/chefs-kiss-french-chef-perfect-dish-excellent-food-perfection-gif-20341505

you think the always rank up mod is compatible?

[lean sky]

Fanfic idea: the Yoshizawa twins go to p5x and kasumi makes fun of the gacha character codenames for being deeply uncool

[errant zenith]

kasumi should also do the beauty thief gimmick

[lean sky]

Oh absolutely that’s genius

“These guys are so swagless I’m going home”

[hollow owl]

Kasumi a real one lol

[errant zenith]

whats with the femc being so real

[lean sky]

“Seriously? CLOSER as a code name?”

[lean sky]

Idk but it’s a pattern

[errant zenith]

Sumire: uh sis you think you're being a bit too harsh

[lean sky]

“L+ratio+no telekinesis” -kasumi Yoshizawa

[errant zenith]

the yoshizawa's have two sides

[lean sky]

Yeah

But like seriously the p5x thieves didn’t brainstorm their codenames and this is the consequence

[errant zenith]

they just got words and said yep

[lean sky]

Man I gotta write this later

[lusty cape]

Should I do more R&V memes?

[lean sky]

YEAS

[errant zenith]

PLZ

[hollow owl]

Definitely, r&V needs as much spotlight as possible

[errant zenith]

give it time and R&V gon get that love

[lusty cape]

Sumire sneezes

Kasumi: Sumire, are you sick? Here, let me wrap you in a blanket and hand-feed you some warm soup while singing you a lullaby!

Akechi sneezes

Kasumi: Oh my god. Shut the hell up.

[errant zenith]

damn she just like me frfr

[eager wedge]

LMAO

[errant zenith]

I see Kasumi/Ann fashion and snacking buddies, kasumi/Futaba gaming buds, Kasumi/makoto uhhhhh no clue, Kasumi/Haru i have no idea im not that far in yet but im excited to see the waifu

[lusty cape]

Just a silly relationship chart with Kasumi

[errant zenith]

what da?!

did you just made this?

[lusty cape]

No it's just a template

I should've tried to erase Ren to existence because she did not met him nor he's not even in exists in R&V

[errant zenith]

ahhhh

aww sweet kasumi crushing on Ann thats awesome

[hollow owl]

Fr

[eager wedge]

ikr its so cute. and yusuke crushing on kasumi. my hearrrrt

[errant zenith]

mako and kasumi are friends? more like cou-💥

[merry coyote]

So! Do the twins say anything after getting folded back savagely by Kasumi? I…. Have no idea!

I beat their ass using the mod menu (to start their fight, nothing more than that) and the game said “nah, you ain’t supposed to be here.” And made me close it.

[errant zenith]

lol

i wouldnt know im not there yet

[merry coyote]

You’ll probably get there before I do. Let me know! I’ll have to pull an NG+ to see if Lavenza has any such dialogue.

[errant zenith]

gotchu

[rich tree]

I use always rank up and haven't had any issues so far

[cedar fiber]

Oop! They actually do say something different, (like, a good couple of lines) but I saved over the file and I forgor!

[errant zenith]

dope

[lean sky]

Epic rap battles of persona history rose vs wonder

[lusty cape]

This sht going be peak🔥🔥🔥🔥

[lean sky]

“Merope, make up fake cognition friends for me bc I can’t fill a full party with real people” - washed gacha protagonist guy

[lean sky]

“SIS, those are cognitions! He’s too washed to have a full party of real people lol”

[spare oak]

the only issue i found was the social stat names being incorrect

[random hinge]

I think I made some adjustment to the files with the stat names to make them compatible with Always Rank up

[spare oak]

oh nice

[surreal ermine]

royal trio is somehow even better with kasumi as the protag

i also think her liking akechi or at least growing fond of him makes mroe sense than joker too. they have very similar demeanors but went about their paths very differently

truly two sides of the same coin

also i think akechi is just protag-sexual because in vanilla royal i would've said akechi is gay as fuck but now...

[lean sky]

I kinda think it’s way funnier if she’s actually still pissed at him, if only because it contrasts with (the fanon interpretation of) joker.

[surreal ermine]

well she still wished akechi back to life in the third semester

..well i haven't gotten there yet but i assume so

[lean sky]

Fair

[lusty cape]

Kinda remake it the relationship chart with Kasumi

[errant zenith]

Oh just Akechi

[radiant plume]

shocked you don't have the twins as rivals

[lusty cape]

Man I have many mistakes

[radiant plume]

an shirashi image posting

[faint elk]

I am done with best girl's palace. Now onto.. Okumura.

https://tenor.com/view/oh-boy-here-we-go-again-oh-dear-omg-alright-then-gif-20490490

Also Kasumi is like i'm about to kill whoever harms this child:

[radiant plume]

it's me i'm kasumi

futaba is smol bean i must protect her :3

[lean sky]

Anyone who harms Futaba or Sumire will feel the full brunt of her telekinesis and all 50 dlc personas she has

[faint elk]

Just send her with Izanagi-no-Okami.

[north osprey]

Izanagi-no-Okami Picaro go brrrr

[raw marlin]

Normal reaction

[faint elk]

That's exactly the meme i was thinking about!

[surreal ermine]

same boat...

[lethal geode]

I LOVE THIS CHART SO MUCH AAA

[errant zenith]

Aww sweet the second sister

What?!

I mean I guess I’m a bad influence

https://tenor.com/view/thanos-impossible-marvel-shocked-gif-15104180

Also oh boy the okumura deadline Yatta

[errant zenith]

Shock boost ez

[humble trail]

eyy aint that useful?

[granite wren]

Not at all on Ryuji

tbh not really in general
Ryuji's Magic stat isn't good

[humble trail]

so shcok boost not elec boost?

[granite wren]

Yeah you get SOME value out of Elec Boost at least

he's not gonna be hitting hard with Elec either way but he's gonna be Shocking even less

[errant zenith]

Trust

Not like you’ll use magic for sub/main bosses for ryuji

[wind narwhal]

yeah if it weren't for knockdowns there would be no reason for ryuji to cast at all

[humble trail]

okok i will remove shock boost then thanks

[errant zenith]

Have fun

[lean sky]

I love the idea that joining the phantom thieves gives kasumi a healthy outlet for her inner hater

[errant zenith]

Like who?

[lean sky]

Idk

[lean sky]

Kasumi “swag factor” Yoshizawa

[twin igloo]

i can imagine her hating on akechi in a friendly manner before the later part of the game

annoying em like a little gremlin with adhd

[errant zenith]

Akechi who actually hates her

Kasumi who’s a gremlin

[spare oak]

ragebait

[errant zenith]

EEEEEEEEEEEE

Waiiiiiit that kinda looks like Sumire

[surreal ermine]

cuz it is

[errant zenith]

So I’m not wrong, Yatta!

[lean sky]

I think the Yoshizawa twins text this image back and forth as a joke between them

[spare oak]

affirmations

[lean sky]

Akechi’s rivalry with the protagonist is way funnier when he has to deal with two of them

[surreal ermine]

they spam this in the phantom thieves group chat

[lean sky]

Exactly

[spare oak]

"this is me btw"

[errant zenith]

“Rose this meeting is important”

[spare oak]

:33

[woeful anvil]

Akechi is now stuck in the worst timeline for himself

[errant zenith]

Sorry Akechi, maruki this

[lean sky]

Persona q3 where the phantom thieves are all from rose’s timeline leaving joker alone like kotone was in q2

[lusty cape]

New fanfic idea

[lean sky]

Bonus points if it somehow still results in akeshu

[lusty cape]

Ren: Akechi...!? Your.... Alive...?

Akechi; I'm sorry... Do I know you?

[lean sky]

Kasumi is just completely baffled

Going to write Q3 rn

[lusty cape]

Man

[surreal ermine]

you got farther than me with some fics...

[lean sky]

Further than my silly KH x Twewy crackfic

[errant zenith]

lol

[errant zenith]

Such a hood classic crossover

[lean sky]

The twist was that the KH side was mostly UX characters, specifically Strelitzia

[errant zenith]

Also that’s sick

[errant zenith]

Now imagine it with Neo twewy

[golden ice]

Good combo

[errant zenith]

Dood crossover fanfics are goated

[errant zenith]

Dang persona Q3… My Chad Narukami meeting Kasumi

Yippee

[hollow owl]

Yipperoni

[rich tree]

might be my fastest bank clear yet 14 mins >.<

[rich tree]

would be quicker if they didnt treat me like an idiot and make me click twice through converstation to enter the bank codes

[errant zenith]

oi! hand over that fanfic

[errant zenith]

yipperific

[lean sky]

YIPPEEE

Honestly maybes there should be a channel for fanfic

Anyways

[cedar fiber]

Small thing, btw!

You're using the wrong "You're" here.

Remember, "You're" is just a shorthand for, "You are."

[lean sky]

Ideas: fuuka learns the horrible truth about what befalls her favorite sci-fi fps franchise after the year 2010, Teddie fucking dies, wonder from the gacha game is there and gets crushed by a rock etc

[cedar fiber]

...Also, are we sharing fanfic?

Cuz I actually got one too lol

[lean sky]

YKW I’m making a topic for the Q3 fic so we don’t get in the way of discussion of the actual mod

Done

[cedar fiber]

Wait, is that just for that fic, or is it just for like

All Rose and Violet related fics lol

[lean sky]

Shoot that’s what I should’ve done

[errant zenith]

heh

[cedar fiber]

...So is that a yes, or a no?

[lean sky]

Check topics

[cedar fiber]

I did lol

Can the topic title not be changed after it's created?

[lean sky]

Nope

[cedar fiber]

I see

[lusty cape]

Where is it

[lean sky]

Check topics in concepts and projects

[vestal briar]

Scene's a lot wilder in this mod.
||Ryuji: Hey Rose let me tank this vorpal blade real quic-Hold on isn't that Akechi on your side? And you are fighting against your sister whose persona went berserk? And that's doc with a more stylish hairstyle somehow? Wait did he just say you were supposed to be dead?
Ryuji: For real?||

[rich tree]

I made a comment on that post

[errant zenith]

oh yea ive seen this

[rich tree]

about R and V and kasumi as protag making that whole bit more wild

[errant zenith]

ill get to that third semester

I SWEAR

[rich tree]

i mean you have upto november 18th to max maruki

its not hard

you have more time then you need

[lean sky]

There is ZERO third semester R&V content on YouTube

[rich tree]

id say thats a good thing right now

[raw marlin]

Cuz no content is out for Rose yet other than Strawberry’s

[rich tree]

with the mod being new

and how much changes in 3rd

[raw marlin]

And it probably take some time considering how long this game is

[lean sky]

There is one person streaming it, that’s how I’m experiencing the mod

[rich tree]

you cant play it?

[lean sky]

I only played the actual game while on game pass

[errant zenith]

oh yea i already did that

[rich tree]

then your good

[lean sky]

The streamer is at futaba’s palace

[rich tree]

if you have 15 bucks you can get it now

humble has it this month for there monthly

you get p5r plus all the other games in the pack

https://www.humblebundle.com/membership?hmb_source=humble_home&hmb_medium=takeover&hmb_campaign=current_sub-non-sub

its the cheapest your likely to ever see it on pc

ive never seen it under 23 on steam

[lean sky]

I’ll consider

[rich tree]

im hoping they put p3r on the monthly

id grab that in a heart beat since they just yoinked it off gamepass

you have 2 and a half weeks left to think about it ends on the last day of the month

[lean sky]

But yeah I did spoil myself because that’s generally just my bad habit with jrpgs

[lean sky]

I closed it because someone reminded me that this is a modding channel

[vestal briar]

I know it might be difficult to implement in mod so it's just random thoughts, but I feel Kasumi rescuing Sumire and making her snap out of it might make Sumire's inferiority complex worse. So I kinda want their confidant ends with them dueling each other fair and square as equals to purge Sumire's shady thoughts and help me move on.

[errant zenith]

Aww man fanfic chat gone

[faint elk]

8/29: Typo that i noticed with Ann saying: Cat go your tongue.

[lean sky]

I can put it back

[faint elk]

Also i have noticed with this scene is not only brand new and edited but it was also made to skip the anime scene with Futaba.

[errant zenith]

Don’t have too

[lean sky]

Yeah I wasn’t sure if posting that in the modding channel was allowed

But I am totally still interested in the continuation of the fic

[errant zenith]

It doesn’t relating to making a actual modding project so I can see why it doesn’t belong

[lean sky]

But then where to talk about the fic

[errant zenith]

Good question

[random hinge]

Thanks, I'll fix it for the next update

[faint elk]

Ah you're welcome. Also sorry i made you sad.

[random hinge]

Don't worry, I'm just dumbfounded because I don't understand how I missed that one

[twin igloo]

U were probably tired or focused on something else

[faint elk]

That too.

[random hinge]

I've got Neptune's artworks done for the next update

[humble trail]

yayyy

[rich tree]

nice

[red panther]

one question, Zylv: R&V update or alternate models update?

[random hinge]

Both, I'll update R&V with typo fixes and the compatibility for the Jazz club mod and the alternate models with that

[rich tree]

jazz club mod?

[random hinge]

https://gamebanana.com/mods/503092

[rich tree]

nice ill add that after the update

[random hinge]

Update is out. I forgot to add the colorful UI stuff, so i'll add it in a future update

[granite wren]

Didn't know about that mod

[rich tree]

im using the colorful ui mod right now with no issues

[magic magnet]

What is the correct load order??

[random hinge]

Put the Jazz Club Drink Select mod below Rose & Violet

[rich tree]

its at the bottom of my load order right now

havent moved it

[surreal ermine]

my organization...

[rich tree]

orginized you say?

mine is a mess

but it works

[surreal ermine]

you should have event fadeout table merging enabled

but anyway

that hurts to look at

[red panther]

the new Kasumi UI by Neptune is just chef's kiss

omg I'm obsessed

[surreal ermine]

ikr

[rich tree]

ty ill enable it i have no idea what it does or how it got turned off

omg

that is lit

im in love

[surreal ermine]

it's dedicated merging for a commonly used file in mods

I think cbt uses it

[rich tree]

i noticed a few things using the color ui so im turning it off for now

ill turn it back on after the next R&V update

[lethal geode]

you don't need dependencies like it enabled

if a mod depends on it it'll be auto enabled after clicking launch

that goes for dependencies as a whole

[rich tree]

so id need to move it above rose and violet

and put the gui folder back

or just wait for the update which is what im going to do

its a lovely mod though makes the ui pop more

[faint ravine]

Do you have a link for it so I don’t have to wait for the update

[rich tree]

the update is out

just open reloaded

[faint ravine]

Oh bet

[errant zenith]

Hey chat what I mi-

Oh

An update welp time to get to work

[vestal briar]

Too bad, I'm more into long hair model

[errant zenith]

i just alternate between the hair

[lean sky]

Kasumi “aura farming” Yoshizawa

[errant zenith]

The Neptune looks so official

[lean sky]

Yeah

[humble trail]

damn akechi is unhinged, turns out he's got a light yagami side 🙁

talk about daddy issues

[errant zenith]

Damn Akechi

[merry coyote]

Rose out here with the F O R B I D D E N technique

[raw marlin]

I can’t believe she’d resort to it

[woeful anvil]

She’s cheating with her telekinetic powers

[lean sky]

This shit is what shido accused her of

[twin igloo]

Witchcraft

[lean sky]

She just locked tf in

[errant zenith]

“Damn bitch I’ll sue!”

[lean sky]

I really like the idea of kasumi just repeatedly changing to increasingly obscure sports now that she’s banned from gymnastics

[granite wren]

Can't wait for her curling debut

[woeful anvil]

This is my new favorite head cannon relating to this mod

[twin igloo]

She could probably do gun shooting sports next

Am sure Iwan knows places for that

[lean sky]

Kasumi “shockingly good at kickball” Yoshizawa

[errant zenith]

Kasumi ballin Yoshizawa

[lean sky]

Headcanon adopted

[lean sky]

Kasumi just becomes the Japanese equivalent of that one Turkish guy with the air pistol at the Olympics

Exactly

[past atlas]

everytime i clock download i get a diffrent error each time

[red panther]

try here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1UiPqMx3RuimyZc-yxSRm1P1rYQdO2qcl

download the zip file and drag into reload II

[past atlas]

yall know if early party member mod works. i know early violet doesnt

[errant zenith]

it doesnt

[past atlas]

in this mod. does my starter persona only know arsene moveset. if so is there a mod that works to make it bless instead

[spare oak]

Its supposed to be curse

[lusty cape]

Does it work on this?

[spare oak]

Also if you dont have eiha the game breaks in one tutorial

[past atlas]

ah ok

[spare oak]

starter persona is supposed to be a curse equivalent of cendrillon

If you want to keep it you can use the progressive arsene mod (i think thats the name)

[errant zenith]

that actually would be sick

[lusty cape]

Especially you play as Kasumi but you have to fight Sumire euheuheeuhee

[errant zenith]

thats actually a heartful cry moment

fighting your sister for... something idk i havent reached the 3rd semester yet

[lean sky]

Me when the fictional siblings are fighting each other :((

[faint ravine]

yes

at least it did in debug menu when I tried it

[molten finch]

Wonder if this is P3Fes ver or Reload ver 🤔

[errant zenith]

i gave it a listen

its fes

[molten finch]

Ahh okay

[errant zenith]

man i want every persona game (and metaphor i guess) to have a femc that'd be awesome

[rich tree]

Someone is working on p4g femc

[molten finch]

Hmm yeah curious, did Persona 4 had a FeMC in the beta before?

🤔

Or concept art or whatever

[surreal ermine]

i think at this point p4g femc is just a visual mod

[bitter walrus]

thats a different one

persona 4 silver is WIP: refer to #mod-sharing

[errant zenith]

https://tenor.com/view/crying-emoji-dies-gif-21956120

[bitter walrus]

i heart misinfo

Either way this thread is abt R&V lets shut up about p4

[errant zenith]

man... why they gotta make kasumi cute... its def gotta be the mole

[surreal ermine]

moles give characters 10x more personality istg

[errant zenith]

truuuuu

[rich tree]

Mole and ponytail

[lean sky]

Very good combination

[errant zenith]

also gorgeous long hair

[hollow owl]

What is different in the new update?

[errant zenith]

new menu art

[lean sky]

Kasumi aura farming in the menus

[hollow owl]

Yeah she is

[past atlas]

well ok

[eager wedge]

thats one way to get info

[hollow owl]

Scaring the shit out of your classmates is a great way to get dirt on the school pdf

[surreal ermine]

i wonder how this happened 😭
