granite wren
#

honestly the best grab animation in any game

bold mortar
#

bruh i wouldn't know how to rig this even

#

well i got an idea

jade willow
#

I hate ears

#

who needs ears anyways

bold mortar
#

could make nemissa outfit

#

like that request on gamebanana wants

#

more to the point someone else could

#

i have impediments to making something like that

#

anyways i don't see the point of making something like this

#

it'd be two days of work for me

jade willow
bold mortar
#

and i wouldn't use it

bold mortar
#

guess i could make the ringo outfit like someone was asking about

#

that's marginally better than nemissa

bold mortar
#

i was thinking about this

#

wouldn't make a bad config option

#

or just alternate version of the mod

jade willow
#

so it seems the bones work and she doesnt explode in animation

granite wren
jade willow
#

now I guess Ill have to manually weight paint as the transfer between the original mesh doesnt work... 😭

safe pebble
jade willow
#

I actually really like it!

buoyant arch
#

oh that's new hair material alright

#

looks really good

jade willow
#

The textures I think look beter than the other model's

bold mortar
#

Kino

hallow shore
#

so peak

bold mortar
#

kinda tempted to swap out the standard uniform for the makoto one in my mod too now

surreal ermine
jade willow
#

well hopefully I can figure out this weight painting stuff! It actually fits on her head pretty well

hallow shore
#

definitely a great alternative for the default hair

jade willow
#

Are these bones going to be okay or will I need to make new ones? I noticed while weight painting its moving oddly and Im wondering if its due to the bone shape

bold mortar
#

this is why i don't try weight painting naosmiley

jade willow
#

Well I guess I could try with a new mesh...😭Now Im so invested

bold mortar
#

up to you ig

#

i tend to just stick with what's already in the game

#

to minimize the amount of work i need to do

jade willow
#

wait have you done weight painting ?

bold mortar
#

i do it if it's easy

#

otherwise i just transfer weights from another model

bold mortar
#

chat i've just had a very deranged idea

errant zenith
#

I will burrrrrn

safe pebble
#

does anyone know where i'm able to find the phone in the files

#

lowkey wanna make some retexture edits on kasumi's phone

#

😭

bold mortar
safe pebble
#

is there a mod that alters joker's phone? i dunno why mine has a custom (?) texture? the phone from KAP it just shows as a plain phone but in game it has a custom one

#

sorta like this

#

it should be in the p5r essentials mod as a configure option right?

bold mortar
#

got the texture to be the right color i think

#

would have to make it fit with kasumi's head though

#

the texture quality is ass though

jade willow
#

bun_sigh thats enough for tonight...

#

If anyone has weight paint / rigging guides that helped them, pls lmk pray

jade willow
bold mortar
#

yeah

bold mortar
bold mortar
#

guess it can be a competitor to the other short hair mod

jade willow
jade willow
cedar hornet
#

Oh hey, that was one of the hairstyles I tried when I was making it

bold mortar
bold mortar
cedar hornet
#

It does

bold mortar
#

i'll probably fart around with this idea some more this week

#

it'll probably be kinda annoying to rig though

bold mortar
cedar hornet
#

All of my hairstyles are just glued to Bip01 Head

bold mortar
#

idk i'd want this to work with the anim where she runs her hand through her hair

#

though that probably wouldn't make much sense with the makoto hair anyways

cedar hornet
#

would be kinda cool tho

#

i'm not experienced enough to know how to do that

bold mortar
#

it's not terribly complicated

#

just kinda annoying to do

#

though with your mod it's not very necessary

cedar hornet
#

Thats true, its something ill need to learn if i wanna keep doing hairstyles tho

bold mortar
#

i kinda want to make a new outfit

#

though theres nothing in particular i want to replace

#

i suppose i could make a either midwinter outfit or an alternative to the winter uniform

#

or maybe theres something i can work with to make a proper raidou costume for kasumi

cedar hornet
#

oh yeah outfits are fun, i'm working on another winter casual for short hair kasumi

bold mortar
#

i couldn't imagine what to make for winter casual

#

i like yukari's outfit too much

cedar hornet
#

valid

#

i'm just stealing pieces off the other girls

bold mortar
#

winter uniform might not be a bad idea though

#

could ditch the blazer and just have the turtleneck

#

like the classic uniform version of haru

cedar hornet
#

that would be cool, i'm looking for a nice button up shirt to stick under the school jacket

bold mortar
#

now i just need a better texture

#

this texture is so bad

cedar hornet
#

couldn't you use the one from p3r? or just the whole hair?

bold mortar
#

gonna try the dancing texture

#

speaking of p3r though

#

wish i could mod that one

cedar hornet
#

is it really different? i was planning to look into it

bold mortar
#

p3r is on UE

#

that's why I won't mod it

#

UE is too much of a hassle

cedar hornet
#

yeah, i didn't like it when i was doing recolors and stuff

#

this is much easier

bold mortar
#

ok yeah the dancing texture works way better

cedar hornet
#

thats def better

bold mortar
#

unfortunately the blue here doesn't want to cooperate like the other texture did

#

hmmm

#

the hair color is turning out too red

#

ok much better

#

maybe i should get rid of this bit

cedar hornet
#

not her antenna

bold mortar
#

idk i think it might make the mesh a tiny bit more unique

#

only other think i could think to add would be like

#

some kind of ribbon

cedar hornet
#

its probably a good idea since the hair's kinda recognizable

bold mortar
#

probably put the ribbon right here

#

since on the back makes no sense

cedar hornet
#

i see the vision

bold mortar
#

so i'll need to choose the right ribbon

#

probably not this one

cedar hornet
#

are there any really small ones?

bold mortar
#

theres the one on the winter outfit

#

scaled down and trimmed isn't terrible ig

cedar hornet
#

i'm feeling it

bold mortar
red inlet
bold mortar
#

a what

red inlet
bold mortar
#

i usually use normal words

#

@cedar hornet

cedar hornet
#

i love it

#

she looks so pretty with short hair

bold mortar
#

might be a bit much physics attached to the bow though

cedar hornet
#

have you tested it yet?

cedar hornet
#

I like it

#

it feels more alive when it sways i think

bold mortar
#

ok then

#

that means the model is ready for in-game testing

bold mortar
cedar hornet
#

that sucks

bold mortar
#

it can probably be made to work

#

it'll just need some fiddling with the weights

#

hmmmm

#

this may be a bit beyond my skills

cedar hornet
#

oh well, it looks great regardless

bold mortar
#

ig the alternative is see how i can disable the physics on it and just attach it to the hair

cedar hornet
#

good ol Bip01 head

bold mortar
#

i thought it was a bit too bouncy anyways

#

actually what i can do is weigh it with the hair bone

#

and it'll bounce in accordance with the hair

#

ok yeah that's looking better

#

i'm gonna readjust it and then test it in game

cedar hornet
#

thats so awesome

bold mortar
cedar hornet
#

I always wind up trying to play and seeing something else i gotta fix

bold mortar
#

yeah

#

thats how it's been with the mitsuru outfit

#

only thing i kinda want to adjust is the hair color

cedar hornet
#

adjustments are a slippery slope πŸ˜”

bold mortar
#

yeah

#

but i think it's not quite the same color as the other mods

jade willow
#

I think people will really enjoy it as well

cedar hornet
#

its very persona 3

jade willow
#

It is, feels like a p3 oc

bold mortar
#

mitsuru clothes

#

makoto hair

#

lol

#

maybe the incognito outfit will have her style it like yukari

cedar hornet
#

that could be cool

bold mortar
#

hmmmmm

#

i can't get the color right

#

it feels like its too red

lusty cape
bold mortar
#

tf does that mean

molten finch
bold mortar
#

i've play p3 twice wtf does that mean

molten finch
bold mortar
#

oh

#

that part

#

that part which i hate immensely

molten finch
bold mortar
#

make the original texture black and white and then recolor it

cedar hornet
#

That sounds really useful

bold mortar
#

dunno if its still too dark

cedar hornet
#

i like it

bold mortar
#

doesn't quite match it still

cedar hornet
#

i think it might be a difference in texture tho

bold mortar
#

yeah ofc

#

i won't be able to match it

#

but i want it to get closer

cedar hornet
#

fair

bold mortar
#

see what the color is like

cedar hornet
#

it could do with some adjustment tbh

bold mortar
#

more brownish that the other ones

cedar hornet
#

yeah, i could probably do better now but i really don't wanna do all those models again

bold mortar
#

probably will roll with the one on the right

bold mortar
#

a lot of upshots to having the models this way

#

but that is not one of them

cedar hornet
bold mortar
#

ok right side it is

#

time to do the tedious process of replacing like

#

what

#

50 models?

#

actually it might be closer to 100

cedar hornet
#

yeah and then all the costumes

#

at least it feels great when its over

bold mortar
#

ah fuck

#

phantom thief outfit will need adjustments to the hair probably

cedar hornet
#

prob, violets mask sucks

bold mortar
#

hmmm

#

wonder what i'm even gonna name the mod

cedar hornet
#

medium length hair Kasumi?

#

shortish hair kasumi?

bold mortar
#

those don't really roll off the tongue lol

cedar hornet
#

def not lol

bold mortar
#

i don't think theres a way to salvage this lol

cedar hornet
#

lol thats why I run maskless now

bold mortar
#

this is gonna be scuffed

#

oh well

#

ok that's as good as it'll get

cedar hornet
#

the hat outfits are the worst

#

at least makoto's hair is pretty flat up top

bold mortar
#

i'm just gonna be lazy with this

#

i don't care

surreal ermine
# jade willow If anyone has weight paint / rigging guides that helped them, pls lmk <a:pray:66...

just quickly looked some up in yt

I've been meaning to update this video for a very VERY long time. But, we're finally here. Everything you need to know in order to start painting weight layers onto your character!!! Hope it helps :)

bold mortar
#

ok all the overworld models are edited

#

next up the costumes and the optional files

#

and then a redo of the incognito outfit i think

#

but i'll save those for tomorrow

cedar hornet
#

valid, you got through the overworld stuff way faster than i would

bold mortar
#

pretty straightforward

#

delete the hair

#

add the new one

#

export

cedar hornet
#

i get distracted lol

bold mortar
#

usually takes a minute or two per model

bold mortar
#

got better call saul on my other monitor

#

so i just put like 70% of my focus on that

cedar hornet
#

might try your method tbh

bold mortar
#

anyways the costumes will take just as long

#

if not longer since some will need to be edited to accommodate hats and whatnot

#

then optional files

surreal ermine
#

modding with better call saul lmao

bold mortar
#

with the commentary track

#

watched three episodes today while i was making this

surreal ermine
#

I should do that with house md

bold mortar
#

also though my brain just goes into focus mode with mods

#

like i was trying to write an essay today and it took like 10 hours to finish the second half of it

#

in 4 hours i've modeled, retextured, and implemented a new model

cedar hornet
#

prob because modding is really fun

bold mortar
#

ehhhh

#

kinda

#

i guess i should figure out the bustup question for this mod

#

or more accurately just ignore the bustups

cedar hornet
#

i wish I was artistic enough to make my own

bold mortar
#

i was only able to make the ones for the alternate bangs mod because i had something already drawn to work with

#

i suppose it might be possible to steal makoto yuki's hair from his bustup

#

probably more work than i'd care to put in though

cedar hornet
#

I tried something like that with Leon's bustup but i couldn't work it in a way that didn't look sloppy

bold mortar
surreal ermine
#

my executive dysfunction seems to apply to moddi g as well though, which is unfortunate

#

commitment... ugh

bold mortar
#

idk with modding it's easier just to butt your head at problems until they're solved

#

essays you actually gotta just sit down and do

#

and think about at the same time

#

the product of hours of tiny adjustments

#

but i still didn't get to make the outfit mods i was planning to do

#

those would've taken way shorter and could've been released by now

cedar hornet
#

she looks soo pretty

bold mortar
#

very fortunate makoto was already in the game files too

#

didn't have to mess with anything from P3D

#

besides taking the texture from that

#

since it was way better lol

cedar hornet
#

yeah, i was playing with his animations earlier

bold mortar
#

funny how it just worked though

cedar hornet
#

the protag fights are soo cool too

bold mortar
#

two different dimensions

#

somehow the P3D one worked right out of the box

cedar hornet
#

maybe they're the same model?

bold mortar
#

i should figure out though what to do about incognito hair though

bold mortar
#

oh you know what it was probably

#

the boss fight probably wasn't in vanilla p5

#

so they just used the dancing model for Royal

cedar hornet
#

i think it was dlc

bold mortar
#

ok yeah

#

royal addition

#

that makes sense then

cedar hornet
#

ooooh

bold mortar
#

Dunno what I'll make though for a midwinter outfit

#

I kinda like the rise one but I feel like there's something I could make that I'd like more

jade willow
#

Okay so I guess...During animations there needs to be animation for the hair as well?

buoyant arch
#

unsure how it's meant to work, but i do think there is no in-game engine physics for hair

#

so yeah, you'll prob need to animate them yourself in the animations

jade willow
#

cbCry no big deal!

pseudo dock
#

it's those physic chunks on some models like joker or sumi

jade willow
pseudo dock
#

np, if you have any questions just ask

jade willow
pseudo dock
#

what version of blender are you on

jade willow
pseudo dock
#

I would suggest trying 4.5 or 4.0. I had it on 4.0 and it worked fine.

jade willow
#

ahh okay! Can I still open my file in a later vers?

pseudo dock
#

yeah

#

I've never really gone past 4.2, surprised the gfs extension works.

jade willow
#

oh wow blobsweat I guess I got lucky!

#

success! Thank you!

pseudo dock
#

np again

jade willow
#

So, Im a little confused on what is to be done here? Is there meant to be a run script option?

pseudo dock
#

you don't really need to do that

#

but it's this script probably

#

then you put that script in here and then run it

jade willow
pseudo dock
#

np

jade willow
#

so they exported into .YAML but as I imported them here it seemed no changes were made. I also fiddled with the sliders and no reaction. WhiteBear_Confused

pseudo dock
#

they only show up ingame

#

if you want to see them in game you have to export the ymal and then overwrite entry 1 and 3 respectfully

#

specifically in gfd

jade willow
#

oooh! the preview doesnt show in blender?

pseudo dock
#

no it doesn't, you just have to see how it looks ingame im afraid

#

atleast I haven't found a way to do it otherwise

#

oh right, you could use the p5 2015 beta build to view them. But that's about it.

jade willow
#

I see! Well let me just try it first in-game and see if I did correctly

#

Thank you again for all your help!

pseudo dock
#

np

jade willow
#

I am super new to this lol_

pseudo dock
#

It's fine, everyone starts out new.

jade willow
#

I really appreciate the patience and kindness! WhiteBear_Happy

pseudo dock
#

I try my best to help out as much as possible.

jade willow
#

Hmm. Should I be replacing the bone relations or the bone info? think Would the preview show up in gfd studio or only in game?

pseudo dock
#

iirc bone info is entry 1 and relations is 3

#

also if you have a mod menu, the 'teleport' function in it should give a better indicator. Since it will force the physics objects to move.

pseudo dock
jade willow
#

I did try teleport and no movement

pseudo dock
#

hmm

#

usually it worked for me

jade willow
#

let me try to switch it and then test, I think I put them on the wrong one?

#

Yeah, no dice. I wonder if its because of the way the bones are set up...

pseudo dock
#

have you tried doing the export button here?

jade willow
#

Wait I should redo the script, maybe something went wrong there

pseudo dock
#

no not the model

#

you just have to export the yaml

#

and then replace 1 and 3 in gfd

jade willow
#

Oh sorry Im confused, after the script ran I got the YAMLs in my folder. Are those not what's meant to be put into GFD Studio?

pseudo dock
#

I never really did it that way tbh. I just exported them using the buttons. idk why it wouldn't work though.

jade willow
#

Ohhh!

#

Wait let me try that

bold mortar
#

wow it's all coming together

jade willow
#

Yeah that didnt work for me. I wonder if its because my bones are messy

jade willow
bold mortar
#

still need to come up with an alternative incognito hairstyle though

pseudo dock
bold mortar
#

bro's teaching it the right way 😭

pseudo dock
#

it's not hard just really tedious

pseudo dock
bold mortar
pseudo dock
#

so true

bold mortar
#

i was thinking change it to like

#

yukari's hairstyle or something

buoyant arch
#

give her the junpei treatment and lend her a hat

pseudo dock
#

make her bald

buoyant arch
#

that too

bold mortar
bold mortar
#

i should show you guys how scuffed the beef bowl hat is

granite wren
#

Give her gag glasses

pseudo dock
#

you just need to put the hat on and then delete the parts of the hair that isn't seen

bold mortar
#

i cranked this out in like 5 minutes

jade willow
bold mortar
#

because i didn't care at all lol

pseudo dock
bold mortar
jade willow
pseudo dock
#

no, you just need to go into the global settings and then back wiggle, You also need to set the frames to how many there are in the animation (for example this anim is 61 frames). Make sure to check 'overwrite current action, so you don't have to copy paste keyframes.

#

If you want to view the anim do this and then select action editor instead of dope sheet. And after that, a quick way to change the frames is CTRL + END. It'll set the keyframe limit to where the blue line is in the action editor

jade willow
#

Wait I think I might have a different add on?

pseudo dock
#

sorry, was doing something

#

yeah you need wiggle 2

jade willow
pseudo dock
#

it's fine, I don't mind

#

looks good to me

#

I would suggest looking at other hair animations to see what you could change.

#

like from ann or kasumi

jade willow
#

Like in terms in the direction it should swing?

pseudo dock
#

I mean in general. If you want it to look like it's from the game, since they most likely used the same physics thing to make all of the hair animations.

safe pebble
jade willow
pseudo dock
#

No like, hair also is baked in on p5 characters

#

not all but most of the female characters have animations for their hair baked in

jade willow
#

Ohh. I didnt know that!

pseudo dock
#

yeah, they did that with stuff like the skirts and boobs too. But they also have the ingame physics helping the animation look better.

#

I think the skirts don't have the ingame physics but the boobs do.

jade willow
#

I see..

#

Wiggle 2 seems to have less options than wiggle 1?

pseudo dock
#

maybe? I never used wiggle 1

jade willow
#

Oh I see yeah, it seems like they removed amp rotation unless Im missing it

pseudo dock
#

damn

jade willow
#

Well Ill try it anyways and maybe a miracle will happen who knows!

jade willow
#

Shot in the dark but would this essentially act the same as wiggle 2's bake?

pseudo dock
#

probably yeah, but the regular wiggle bake works fine

jade willow
#

Oh but I thought since it didnt have overwrite current action it wasnt?

pseudo dock
#

I didn't realize wiggle 1 didn't have it

#

regardless that should work

jade willow
#

Nice!!

#

So do I just export it as a GAP?

pseudo dock
#

yeah

#

sorry, was doing something again

jade willow
#

Oh no worries! Don't feel compelled to answer, if you're busy you're busy! WhiteBear_Happy I appreciates all the help so thank you

#

Sadly it seemed that didn't work...I think I will try some more tomorrow though! thumbs_up

#

At least I'm pretty sure the weights and bones are ok

pseudo dock
#

what about it didn't work?

#

you could try just baking it from wiggle 1 and seeing what happens

#

Like the overwrite check isn't necessary. It's just for convenience.

jade willow
pseudo dock
#

yeah then i'd suggest just try baking through wiggle 1

jade willow
#

Nope lol

#

To be fair I could be doing something very simple wrong so its just messing everything up. Maybe I'll comission someone and then ask them how they worked it out..

pseudo dock
#

try wiggle 2

#

because it should be working

#

could you give me the model?

jade willow
# pseudo dock try wiggle 2

Actually I wonder if wiggle 2 could make wiggle 1 work? It's just wiggle 1 has the rotation option. Im sure there's a decent reason why wiggle 2 doesnt have it but the animations look weird to me 😭

jade willow
pseudo dock
#

it's fine

jade willow
#

Alright! I think I sent it correctly

bold mortar
#

ok costumes are done

#

which leaves optional files

jade willow
#

Does Rose and violet alt models use GAP files or is that Kasumi as protag?

bold mortar
#

i think they'd be in kasumi as protag

#

alt models is just models afaik

bold mortar
#

ok i think i've finished replacing all the models

#

guess its time to fix the beef bowl one

#

and then make the incognito outfit

#

man this hat sucks

bold mortar
bold mortar
#

could borrow aigis hair maybe

#

that's similar length

#

oh wait aigis has the head thing

#

hmmm

#

yeah idk

#

actually could borrow the naoto hat

#

either that or the beef bowl one

#

ok that'll probably have to do

#

yeah good enough

buoyant arch
#

looks really solid

bold mortar
#

i think i'm done now

#

not gonna bother with bustups so i'd just have to publish it at this rate

buoyant arch
#

i might do them

#

who knows

bold mortar
#

with every mod i release i keep giving you more work...

buoyant arch
#

and by all means

#

do not stop

bold mortar
#

well i think i want to spend the rest of the night making a new midwinter outfit

#

that'll either be simpler

#

or annoyingly complicated

#

goody the config doesn't want to work

#

time to spend an hour fixing this

#

ok fixed it

jade willow
# bold mortar

idk I usually dont like short hair but I think she is soooo cute

#

She gives very sweet girl vibes

bold mortar
jade willow
#

I think she kinda reminds me of the girl from ouran host club

bold mortar
#

i gotta come up with a name for the mod still

#

rn in the test build its Makoto Hair Kasumi

surreal ermine
#

(or does she just cross dress... I haven't watched it)

jade willow
#

I just remember everyone thought she was a pretty boy and she never cared to correct them

bold mortar
#

imagine watching anime

surreal ermine
#

i feel like i watched a recap... she dressed up as a boy to be a host in the host club at school

#

not sure... might be a naoto moment

jade willow
#

Yeah I kinda forget but she was wearing the male uniform for some reason. I looked it up and people seem to interpret it as her being agender?

surreal ermine
#

but in any case, i agree. the hair on kasumi like that gives her that sort of androgynous femininity

surreal ermine
jade willow
#

Regardless its super cute

bold mortar
#

oh right we were commenting on my mod lol

#

i forgot

#

anyways i'm gonna release this tomorrow morning or so

#

so now i wanna come up with a new winter or midwinter outfit or something

jade willow
#

Whenever I wanna play the game but not play the game fr I use mod manager to call in ||Black mask fight and just fight him||, with the new ai its actually fun

bold mortar
#

new ai?

jade willow
#

Also I never noticed he said this before πŸ’€ What a drama queen

surreal ermine
#

i still found it too easy, lol

bold mortar
#

oh wow i actually have that one

#

gonna see how well that goes for me

jade willow
#

I love it

bold mortar
#

paired with

surreal ermine
#

i actually posted my fight... halfway through bc i forgot

jade willow
surreal ermine
#

oh lol

jade willow
#

I feel like it suits his personality better being more aggressive and its kinda fun cause you get in oh crap situations easily

bold mortar
#

have like 2 difficulty mods going at once

#

its pretty crazy

bold mortar
surreal ermine
#

i forgot this fight happened directly after another one and went into this fight with like no sp

bold mortar
#

its why i stock up on the leblanc coffee

bold mortar
#

what would be the basis...

surreal ermine
#

i think i'll record the final maruki cutscene just for funzies

#

need more people on the kap train

#

oh i never uploaded the long hair sumire video i recorded

bold mortar
#

ok made the thumbnail

raw marlin
#

I knew they were related

jade willow
#

You know for all these hairstyles, the ponytail is the best still imo

#

She just is so cute

bold mortar
#

oh yeah definitely lol

#

might try with the makoto hair next run

#

but my version of the ponytail mod is the best imo

raw marlin
#

You gonna use his Personas too to add to that

bold mortar
#

i think the only DLC persona i have in my loadout is Magatsu Izanagi

#

hmmm what shall i call the mod though

#

rn the working title is makoto hair kasumi lol

buoyant arch
#

red door

raw marlin
#

Kasumi Yuki? πŸ€”

buoyant arch
#

not quite, she isn't redhaired as sumi

bold mortar
buoyant arch
#

could work

#

somewhat

bold mortar
#

I despise The Answer though

#

so idk

raw marlin
#

What did the Answer do to you

buoyant arch
#

to us all

bold mortar
#

aside from not bringing back the protagonist?

#

just find it offensive

buoyant arch
#

imagine buyiung the expensive version of reload to not get the answer dlc dark

bold mortar
buoyant arch
#

sumi started listening to old angsty teen punk rock

raw marlin
buoyant arch
#

and decided to get to "the phase"

buoyant arch
raw marlin
#

I have my eyes on you

bold mortar
#

probably just gonna call it Makoto Hair Kasumi at this rate

raw marlin
bold mortar
buoyant arch
#

for now i think this is fine

Ah nah man not ChatGPT

bold mortar

#

chatgpt gives awful info so be careful with that

bold mortar
#

i'm not asking it to do research lol

#

it can do basic translations

surreal ermine
jade willow
#

HELLO IS THIS A WHOLE TRAILER?!

surreal ermine
#

for anyone wondering, the transformation scene is completely prerendered and couldn't be un-prerended with cbt. that's why the ponytail is still there

buoyant arch
#

trully an atlus moment

#

ig there was nothing they could do

surreal ermine
#

well it had a lot of complex animations. i recorded this like 5 times already bc i was lagging so much because of the rest being unprerended. i was surprsied how synced the audio was when i got this

#

you can still see some lag spikes

buoyant arch
#

wont lie though, the transition from the ponytail to the new hair from one scene to the other was actually clean

jade willow
#

It looked really smooth there yeah

#

Speaking OF the long haired models

surreal ermine
#

i started off with kap + red rose which is why i think it was lagging so much too. also the glasses do... you'll see

#

oh this is the one where i forgot to stop recording LMAO

bold mortar
jade willow
#

I noticed that they dont use their own GAP animations - croissant guard was trying to show me how to use a p5 physics tool but I couldnt get it to work out. Instead they super kindly showed me how to bake hair animations in but then I realized I would need to replace all the gap files - and that Longhaired Sumi uses the same GAP animations as ponytail

molten finch
surreal ermine
#

like i said the transformation sequence can't be altered

#

i'm sure deathchaos tried

surreal ermine
#

you can see it clip in some areas. specifically in events i see a lot of her turning her head too much to the point the hair just... goes in her shouleder

#

but that's because when making the event they were accommodating for the ponytail

#

and just like wisteria, i am not editing every single event where this happens

jade willow
#

Youre talking about MyTamagos' long hair? cinna_question

surreal ermine
#

correct

#

on sumire

#

real sumire

jade willow
#

Thats actually a good point!

#

I didnt even think about that, was it a pretty simple transfer or did you have problems?

surreal ermine
#

there was no problems

#

since the hair physics seem to share the same bones as the ponytail

#

if you watch the cutscene again, you can see the back of her hair... go forward... lol

#

so

jade willow
#

Right...so her bones somehow work for the ponytail animations too...

#

It looks super natural though.

surreal ermine
#

mytamagos knew how to make it look natural, i suppose

#

if i had to complain, i'd say they're too exaggerated. but that's a nitpick, and i'd rather just have the model instead of needing new GAP animations as well

jade willow
#

That actually makes me feel better

surreal ermine
#

i'd say the weight painting was done really well too if you look closely

jade willow
#

I felt like I had to figure out a way to make the Rise hair work with the normal skeleton as Mytagamos' but thats likely an unrealistic expectation if they were just super skilled

surreal ermine
#

you can always ask

jade willow
#

mytagamos? Is that alright to do?

surreal ermine
#

i think the main thing with the mytamagos hair is that the weight painting makes it look relatively natural

#

even if it's clearly still using ponytail animations, if you look close enough

molten finch
surreal ermine
#

uh... what's their discord again...

#

@sharp pumice

jade willow
#

omg

#

fingers crossed

surreal ermine
#

it's alright... the modders here aren't celebrities lmao

#

tbf i felt the same way when i first joined

#

i'm not sure the ponytail bones will work with the rise hair...

#

but you can try

jade willow
surreal ermine
#

LMAO WHAT

jade willow
#

hahaha not me outting myself buut yeah

surreal ermine
#

i started modding like two months ago

#

well... i made one mod a few years ag

#

o

buoyant arch
#

maybe it would be an inconvenience bc of discord's notification sound, but I have it turned off

surreal ermine
#

i actually prefer to be pinged, because i will miss your message if you don't ping me when you need me

buoyant arch
#

so yeah, even though I get spammed on other servers I just don't mind

jade willow
#

thats so cute and wholesome

buoyant arch
hallow shore
#

I once posted my wip mod but got scared and deleted it :/

bold mortar
#

ok all set up

surreal ermine
#

i also like to be pinged in replies because it highlights the message and i can see the replies... since my adhd brain glazes over the name and only sees the role color πŸ’€

buoyant arch
# bold mortar ok all set up

i might re-use the other short hair kasumi bustup I made as a base, more because I'm really proud of that one and because it fits well into the posture and hair

#

if you don't mind

surreal ermine
#

that's a lot of images

bold mortar
buoyant arch
#

I'll have some free time tomorrow. I might get to it then

bold mortar
surreal ermine
#

steam screenshots... thst

#

woops

#

that's a good idea

#

add that to the counter of me fat fingering the enter key

buoyant arch
#

i also need to do that other version of the ponytail. I might try redoing the bustup in general bc I started seeing some things I didn't before, but eh

#

at some point

surreal ermine
#

don't make more work for yourself...

hallow shore
#

how many new mods for p5r are just going to be kasumi hair models lol

buoyant arch
hallow shore
jade willow
raw marlin
#

Ohya when?

surreal ermine
#

i've done it with my writing before

buoyant arch
#

yup, artists in general

bold mortar
#

oh yeah i gotta publish the mod lol

#

i forgot i put in a dummy zip here

buoyant arch
#

there's a pinned msg from like, a year or two where i sort of said that through imrpovement, you notice things you couldn't see before

#

it's where my own shame of past work comes from

#

i stopped seeing it as such nowadays, bc it was a point where I was improving

#

so maybe I'll get to work on something new, bc I learned new things and got overall better

hallow shore
#

Both times I published my mods I got a complete panic attack

buoyant arch
#

relax

jade willow
#

Ohya what?

surreal ermine
#

ohya?

buoyant arch
#

yeah

surreal ermine

buoyant arch

surreal ermine

yeah they got beta twins and beta ohya

jade willow

surreal ermine

shameless advertising but yeah, we are on our way to doing that

it's on the gb project page. the link on the official release gb doesn't work

and we used to have a lot of freetime

Good times indeed

hallow shore

I wish I had the skill to do anything lol

buoyant arch
jade willow
#

Infiltrated the redux server βœ…

surreal ermine
#

they recently made a breakthrough with managing to make rotation work, is all i know

buoyant arch
#

as seen with R&V, things ARE possible now

surreal ermine
#

well, zylvos is insane

#

and used EVTTOOL

buoyant arch
#

but life tends to punch us at the worst possible moments

surreal ermine
#

which is a JSON FILE!!

buoyant arch
#

i don't quite get it, as I'm just one of the 2d artists

#

but from the little I've seen, json files are no fun to work on

surreal ermine
#

even wisteria used evtui, but zylvos didn't even know of its existance... and managed to do all this editing a json file in a text editor

jade willow
#

Nanako spotted?!

surreal ermine
#

but i'll make a hot take again, y'all can finish the story edits with evtui in its current state

buoyant arch
#

only to go to another madness, which is working on mods

#

but that madness is shared with other mad people

#

so it's fun

buoyant arch
surreal ermine
#

i really would've been fine with this mod if y'all just did the story edits... but it reminds me a lot of startup projects that simply fail because its members or founder bites off more than they can chew

buoyant arch
surreal ermine
#

with my sumire as protagonist, i don't expect my big dreams of like, commissioning an animator to redo some cutscenes to actually come true. i just kind of leave it as a "man, that'd be cool". i think zylvos did the same. sometimes you have to be realistic

buoyant arch
#

we were ambitious in the start, that's for damn sure. Won't say it's a pity, bc even with that, we managed to do a lot of good work. But I do believe that focusing a tad more on one thing instead of others would've been better managing on our part

surreal ermine
#

i do think your ambission enabled you to make some insane shit i'll admit that

#

croissantguard is magic

buoyant arch
#

again, we were passionate idiots at the start, and reality had to hit us at some part

#

now that it did, it allowed us to finally understand where to aim and shoot

jade willow
#

even still, this is so much content

#

its seriously a dlc's worth

buoyant arch
#

i say idiots with no bite, btw. We are just passionate

surreal ermine
#

yeah it blew me away when i saw it

#

and then i saw the delays... and made the connection. lol sometimes you lose sight of the most important parts while pursuing small side projects

#

(oh god oh no i'm talking about myself)

buoyant arch
#

i feel like working on this mod while in the break at redux allowed me to better my 2d skills to the point it looks like another person was drawing

jade willow
#

idk im a big dreamer

#

shoot for the moon, and even if you miss you land amongst the stars! nod

buoyant arch
#

i have a few things from a year ago saved. Damn

surreal ermine
#

i actually know how to edit evt's now because of my small little side projects, and now i kind of wish i would've made the events in r&v male romance original

#

but using gay joker's makes less work. and i'm still procrastinating on the writing part

#

if i was an efficient writer it would've been done in late september

jade willow
#

idk, I think its worth the wait if it comes out as well done as Ryuji's

surreal ermine
#

i did ryuji's in like... a week

#

i get small bursts of inspiration sometimes

surreal ermine
#

nooo don't confirm my self-loathing 😭

bold mortar
#

should get on it so i can have more storylines by christmas

jade willow
#

I think I would rather have writing that feels authentic to the character than feeling like they are out of character

surreal ermine
#

fuuucck

bold mortar
#

akechi by christmas

surreal ermine
#

HELL

#

NO

#

sorry

#

but specifically for akechi, i'm making that original so it'll be a while

bold mortar
#

yusuke at least naosmiley

jade willow
#

its okayyy raven

surreal ermine
#

also i gotta finish this comission i'm doing. i want to finish mishima then completely focus on this commission then get back to it. this person paid me $75...

jade willow

you can share all your ideas for akechi's storyline with me, theyre safe ❀️ 😏

bold mortar

imagine getting paid

surreal ermine
bold mortar
surreal ermine

if i lock in and completely finish this comission, maybe yusuke by christmas

i would say i'd do stuff during thanksgiving break too but i have like. 2 days off

pseudo dock
surreal ermine

like i said before itruly believe you can do the story changes with evtui in its current state

#

i have no idea if ajda will even get render preview done any time soon. no offense, but yeah

#

i think they themselves said without... i forgot the name of the other person... that they're having a hard time

surreal ermine

thank you lol

grand grove

i would say i should stop procrastinating too, but i should go to bed!

surreal ermine

i noticed that my college doesn't take as many days off as my high school

#

oh LMAO

#

idk maybe mine's just special

bold mortar
#

get to finish university and then stay in school for another half decade after that

jade willow
#

omg i forgot tomorrow is veterans day

surreal ermine
#

are you gonna be a lawyer??

bold mortar
#

no

surreal ermine
#

PRIESTS REQUIRE THAT MUCH SCHOOL

bold mortar
#

yeah

surreal ermine
#

holy shit

bold mortar
#

gotta learn philosophy, latin, greek, theology, pastoral stuff

#

and thats like the basics

#

you can also get a graduate degree if the bishop wants you to too

surreal ermine
#

i'm not becoming a psychiatrist for the exact reason of: i don't wanna go to medical school

#

i could never stay in school that long

#

i'm getting my master's then i'm fuckin done

jade willow

omg wait, how old are you guys?

surreal ermine

i'

#

woops

jade willow

you want to do criminal psych right?

buoyant arch
#

btw can we all agree a 4 hour exam to do 2 questions is absurd?

bold mortar
surreal ermine
#

criminal psychologist. slight difference. psychiatrists can diagnose and prescribe meedication. psychologists cannot

Physiology feels like theyre just making shit up to make sense

surreal ermine

don't most of the girls have shorts under their skirts in the summer anyway?

but oh boy

calculus is a different beast

pseudo dock

not shorts but yeah they do

bold mortar
buoyant arch

physics is getting out of hand too

bold mortar

in any event it's just so she can conform better to my views on modesty

surreal ermine

makoto just wants to die of heat i suppose. even when there's brutal heat waves in japan

jade willow
#

To be fair the highest math required for me is statistics πŸ’… sooo

surreal ermine
#

idrc about what people think about modesty or whatever... i'm more concerned for them overheating

#

i suppose leggings aren't too bad lololol

surreal ermine
#

especially if they're thin

bold mortar
#

i wear a thin jacket even in the high summer

buoyant arch
surreal ermine
#

that sounds like pain

buoyant arch
#

compared to the nonsense I'm seeing, you have been blessed

surreal ermine
#

i'm a graphic tee lover, but i wear long shorts because tight shorts give me dysphoria adachitrue i don't think guys wear tight shorts anyway....

pseudo dock
#

I do

pseudo dock
#

shorts are short

buoyant arch
#

i mostly use pants bc they are comfortable

pseudo dock
#

I mean I guess they're not that short

buoyant arch
#

but I guess brazil is punishing on that end, cause the heat in here is unbearable

surreal ermine
#

once i started wearing men's pants my eyes were opened. y'all had this much pocket space the whole time??

buoyant arch
surreal ermine
#

i think i saw a guy fit a full-sized switch in his pocket once

buoyant arch
#

my girlfriend said the same. She ended up spraying some paint on her jeans, and I lent her one of mine

pseudo dock
buoyant arch
#

and yeah, i do use big, comfy pants

#

she enjoyed them

jade willow
#

I cant even fit my phone in my pocket bruh 😭

buoyant arch
#

she started using some of mine

surreal ermine
#

i used to sit on my phone in my back pocket. even if i wasn't trans i would probably end up gravitating to men's pants anyway. fuck sitting on my phone

jade willow
#

lmao that is so real

#

I partially got a flip phone so that way it would fit better in my pocket

surreal ermine

i guess there's a time for everything. I mostly focus on comfort, but I do use some uncomfortable stuff when it's needed
