(P5R PC) Rose & Violet - Story overhaul

[bold mortar]

i don't think anyone uses the sweater anyways

dunno what i'd make for the summer casual though

[jade willow]

I forgot about the textures again...

[bold mortar]

i like the mitsuru outfit but it's probably not gonna work so good

[clear acorn]

A very Hollywood™ swimsuit

[granite wren]

Yeah I think it'd be a classier/more conservative option while still keeping some style

and it's fit for a star

Least dogwater me!mockup but yk yk I could see it working for a gyaru aesthetic
Maybe when I go on leave from work I'll look into the tutorial by ShrineFox and back at the other tutorial by Mudkip

I'll spoiler it for Bester's sake

[jade willow]

I lost my setup for textures and UVs...

[granite wren]

Ouch

[jade willow]

Wait is that already fitted on her? It looks good!

[bold mortar]

W spoiling

[granite wren]

Well
I took a Kasumi head and put it on the body, and recoloured the blue parts to a light pink

It's not actually rigged or anything unfortunately

so it's kind of like advanced smoke and mirrors

[jade willow]

Oh I see

[granite wren]

I can fit models together but I can't do any important stuff like armature or animations

[jade willow]

I bet her sakura leotard would weight transfer that well.

[granite wren]

Yeah good point

[jade willow]

If you have any questions or need help lmk! Im new but I know some things

[granite wren]

I'd need plenty, I get totally lost at this stuff
There's a few outfits I'd port if I knew how
But it's definitely something I'll give a shot again at some point

[bold mortar]

btw who has this?

and who do i get permission from to use it?

[jade willow]

lolsu ported it

and then I did a texture edit. Youd probably need to ask them

[bold mortar]

didn't you comm it?

because in that case I think I'd need your permission

i think i'll want to redo the skirt though

[granite wren]

There's also Floral Delight Aerith as an option but the cloth physics would likely be hell

[jade willow]

Idk?? I think youd still need their permission right?

Idk I just play in blender and stuff 🤷‍♀️

[bold mortar]

i don't think so but

i'll check

@lethal scaffold can i use the yukari summer uniform model

[lethal scaffold]

Yes, just credit me and it's totally fine

[bold mortar]

goody

btw @jade willow do you think I should bother keeping the outfit config options like my other mods have?

i feel like some of the options won't have a lot of use

or at the very least I won't do a lot to edit them

[jade willow]

Eh I think you should have fun

It's not like you're going to have variations of each outfit right?

[bold mortar]

idk i'd want to keep some of the options

since i'm gonna make a suspenders variation

and i think the rise midwinters would be good as an option

guess i might as well make edits to every model

and then just say in the description which ones i'd recommend using

[jade willow]

Do you know

If there is a way to reverse beyong the point of no more ctrl z

Or am I screwed

[buoyant arch]

yeah this is the point where you could throw yourself into a fridge

there is no uncooking yourself

my deepest condolences

at least, there's no way for me

[bold mortar]

you're screwed

[jade willow]

😭 MAN

Bester when do you think youll complete the gyaru mod?

[bold mortar]

uhhhhh

idk'

sometime next week probably

[bold mortar]

gonna see how far i get by monday night and then take a break for thanksgiving

[jade willow]

Sounds like funn!

[bold mortar]

i won't have any homework to do this weekend because i'm finishing my last essay tonight

so i'll probably get fairly far

all the overworld models if nothing else will be complete

[jade willow]

why does her outfit look dirty in gfd... 🫣

[bold mortar]

still unsure what to do about the metaverse costumes though

[jade willow]

give her panther's costume /j

[bold mortar]

something with the mat most likely

[bold mortar]

oh ig models like the awakening model might be scuffed

i'll have to make sure they aren't

[jade willow]

gonna test it in game first and pray

[jade willow]

What are you going to name the mod??

[bold mortar]

idk

Gyasumi?

Gyarumi?

man this last stretch of my essay sucks

[jade willow]

this looks so bad

[bold mortar]

tbh i don't think it fits with the leblanc vibes

[jade willow]

but it looks FINE here

[bold mortar]

GFD will always be more accurate to how it looks in game

[jade willow]

I remain convinced its just cooked from where i messed it up

Well. I will let it go - it does look like a ice cream parlor outfit.

So far I have: The summer uniform - I like Kotomo for that one. I feel like Yukari's uniform looks better with hair tied back....Sleepwear, and 1 midwinter option. I think Im probably going to use your fur coat (if its okay with you) as another midwinter option.

So I need a winter casual, midwinter casual, and maybe a winter uniform. To be honest I think I like Makoto's winter uniform however.

Also does Kasumi change Pjs throughout the seasons?

[bold mortar]

no

[faint elk]

Why does this outfit look like Jecka from Class of 09? I'm just wondering why.

Idk why it's reminding me of THAT GAME.

[jade willow]

I dont know what that is but the outfit came from P3R

[faint elk]

Ohhh. I see.

[bold mortar]

where'd you get the P3R outfits from?

i've been using the P3D outfits

[jade willow]

https://www.deviantart.com/sasuke-bby/art/Persona-3-Reload-Yukari-Takeba-XPS-1021337389 Ive just been using Yukari's

DeviantArt • sasuke-bby • fixDeviantArt

[jade willow]

I was thinking of also switching out the phone for a cute flip phone

Buut it might look awkward idk

[bold mortar]

i see

[bold mortar]

yeah i don't think you can really replace smart phones

[safe pebble]

THE PINK ONEEEEE

GOD

flip phones look so much cuter than touchscreen phones

they recently changed the phones in ff7 remake from flip phones in advent children to regular smartphones

[civic crow]

how did you replace joker's voice lines?

[safe pebble]

and its just not as cool

[jade willow]

Aww thats so cute!

[jade willow]

Joker's voicelines were not replaced in this mod its kasumi over joker voice patch by HappyGrinch8

[jade willow]

They also have this one with the charm

I love flip phones. I switched to android to get the zlfip

[bold mortar]

ermm

https://gamebanana.com/mods/635066

[surreal ermine]

for some reason the preview image is very comical

[bold mortar]

someone copied my mod

[bold mortar]

you can already play as makoto yuki

[buoyant arch]

[molten finch]

Wew so outside of her Leotard PT Outfit made for her except the blue gloves on the white leotard as only putted together in a photoshop edit, decided to keep the Vanilla Outfits she had in OG Royal for my R&V Playthrough as this is Part 1 Collage Pic I made for Sumire rn~

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/232037676759384064/1441394248694890607/RVSumireVioletOutfit1.png?ex=69224b40&is=6920f9c0&hm=853289f121c83dda4f4343675cc22e93d35587b2a602b0ff83bce511496efbd4

May try to think of a Part 2

[civic crow]

Ahh thx

[bold mortar]

i finally finished my essay

time to focus on my passion

Counter Strike

@jade willow

oh yeah i forgot i had a few problems with this model before

maybe i'll come back to this one

@jade willow

thoughts?

actually maybe i should just leave the color alone

people who want the default can use it if they really want ig

[jade willow]

I really like the yukari model

She looks super Gyaru

[bold mortar]

it's got some mesh problems that tbh i don't really feel like solving though

[jade willow]

What's wrong?

[bold mortar]

this for one

the legs also wouldn't accommodate certain scenes

and i can't tell if it has proper socks or not

[jade willow]

Lol

I wouldn't have noticed any of those

I think it looks fine tbf

[bold mortar]

idk ig i could make it work

actually i'm not sure yet how i wanna do the pajamas model yet

[jade willow]

omg

[jade willow]

I HATED doing the Pj model. beware

Also ????

Is Yosuke kinda giving Gyaru vibes here orrr

[errant zenith]

Kinda

[lusty cape]

It's kinda like it though and I think it's fits on Kasumi

[jade willow]

Yeah but I wonder if I would just see yosuke

[bold mortar]

FUCK

i was setting up the kotomo outfit

but it doesn't have a shoes off model either

FUCK

[bold mortar]

ok i just made it from the existing leggings instead

[bold mortar]

ok finally

almost done

@jade willow fixed the sleeve here

which means now i'm down with the summer uniform

i should make a modified suspender uniform tomorrow

[random hinge]

It's very likely the shadow texture map (usually XXX_sh.DDS). Remove it or change it

I've considered making this, but it's very much not done yet (despite how it looks in T-pose) and the textures are very low res. I don't know if I'll finish it (I haven't edited the legs, I was still working on the top part)

[molten finch]

Ahh I see and what kind of Top Part of her outfit are you going to give her for her Midwinter Casual Outfit there? 😲

And I can't wait to see what kind of Midwinter Casual Boots(?) And Leggings(?) You'll give Kasumi/Rose there, if you have time to finish it lol

[random hinge]

I don't have any work in progress for a midwinter casual yet. I don't think I'll reuse that one for the midwinter outfit if I end up finishing it, I'll probably make another model entirely (= reuse another outfit like here)

[molten finch]

Ooh I see there, well best of luck there, if you finish making a Midwinter Casual Outfit for Kasumi/Rose, as I love being interested to see what you'll cook up with~

[jade willow]

She looks so cute!!

[granite wren]

[jade willow]

I always like how you dress Kasumi too! Is it you imagining what she would wear or just what you think she looks best in?

[bold mortar]

finishing up the suspenders model too

[jade willow]

Are you keeping her bow pink 🩷?

[bold mortar]

yeah

[jade willow]

Are you keeping the textures for the yukari uniform too?

[bold mortar]

wdym?

[jade willow]

Are you going to edit them?

[bold mortar]

edit what?

[jade willow]

These!

[bold mortar]

i finished that model

[jade willow]

Oooh I see

I was thinking maybe to change the sweater color

Because her ribbon, scrunchie, and sweater are all different pinks

[bold mortar]

could yeah

[jade willow]

It's up to you ofc

I just realized

[bold mortar]

made one for myself too

[jade willow]

aww how cute

[bold mortar]

ok suspenders model is done

[jade willow]

Okay I want to do 3 more variations of this and then I think Im gonna post it.

[bold mortar]

hmm what do i do now

[jade willow]

Does anyone know where the stuffed animal models are that you can obtain in game?

Im thinking Jack frost and panda option

[bold mortar]

guess i can do the kotomo model rq

ok what next

guess i could do the midwinter uniform

needs some edits still

i think here i can make the scarf pink

hmm do i keep the gloves

[random hinge]

I was just looking at NPCs clothes and I thought that one looked nice

[bold mortar]

and how i am i gonna recolor the coat...

[granite wren]

Honestly I feel like the coat being white actually goes nicely with her leg warmers and hair?

they kinda compliment each other

[bold mortar]

so no trying to make something funky?

[granite wren]

The accessories then kinda provide the splashes of different colour on top, like the scarf gloves and ribbon

Like the cream coat is kinda nice but I really think the white goes well

[bold mortar]

Ok

Works for me since that's less work to do

Wonder how I should tackle the midwinter casual

[bold mortar]

what color do you think i should do for the gloves?

[granite wren]

Red to match her shoes and uniform buttons?

[bold mortar]

i'll try that

[bold mortar]

gotta get the right shade

or it'll look like the PT gloves

[granite wren]

I think it's a great start though, red is definitely the move
We kinda have a consistent colour scheme going

[bold mortar]

seems too dark here

[jade willow]

I cannot find these stuffed animals...😭

[bold mortar]

@granite wren

[granite wren]

I like that

[bold mortar]

ok then the midwinter uniform is done then

[jade willow]

looks cute!

[granite wren]

Weird idea, but hear me out
Teddie is a mascot in universe, we see him on Haru's souvenir Koumade

Could you maybe use his Persona Q model as like, a mock Teddie plush?

if you can't find the other stuffed animals

iirc as well the unused costume dialogues say the Persona Q2 costumes are basically big sports mascot suits

[bold mortar]

ok it's finished

[granite wren]

[bold mortar]

ok now to figure out what i want for the casual

since i have no idea

hmmmm

@granite wren @jade willow any thoughts?

[granite wren]

Yukiko had a nice one in Dancing
Or we could work something out with the ski-wear as it is pretty much just a jacket and thick trousers?

god, horrendous quality lmao

Alternatively, Haruka's outfit maybe?

[bold mortar]

idk was gonna use the fur coat

also i bit the bullet and finished the swimsuits as quickly as possible

so that's no longer a problem

[bold mortar]

what might go underneath though

hmm

[granite wren]

Show the coat rq? Maybe that'll spark some ideas

[granite wren]

Cheers...

https://tenor.com/view/lets-take-a-gaze-let's-take-a-gaze-ryoshu-limbus-limbus-company-gif-8870047336637307749

[bold mortar]

hmmm?

[granite wren]

Oh that's just me posting that I'm having a look round

[bold mortar]

ok

[granite wren]

Could work with Saeko's 8 outfit maybe?

Just replace the shoes

[bold mortar]

eh

i don't really want to go through the effort of porting it

[granite wren]

Fair nuff

[bold mortar]

do i even have the chara.par from 8?

i do

alright

well i hate 8 anyways

[granite wren]

Epilogue Rise?
Or Tsubasa's sweater here

[bold mortar]

why rise?

it's supposed to be midwinter

[granite wren]

I'm thinking of it going under the coat so more would be covered up

[bold mortar]

actually maybe the kotomo outfit might not be bad

then again that is a school uniform

[granite wren]

The annoying part is most of the other actual midwinters have their own coats on so it's like

layering coat under coat would be annoying
curse their sensible winter dress sense

[bold mortar]

also check this out

[granite wren]

Oooooo

[bold mortar]

gonna make the sweater beige

and then

idk what should the skirt be

[granite wren]

[bold mortar]

pink?

[granite wren]

Oh wow okay yeah I love that pink

[granite wren]

[granite wren]

[bold mortar]

unfortunate that you have to choose between this and the yukari outfit

[bold mortar]

maybe i should keep the legwarmers for the midwinter casual

instead of the present shoes

[granite wren]

Yeah that'd be cool

[bold mortar]

ok then

[bold mortar]

actually maybe the winter casual might be good underneath the fur coat

[granite wren]

Oh yeah good point actually

[jade willow]

Yukari's outfit under winter coat?

[jade willow]

I could do this but I dont like Teddie that much LOL

I did find the models for jack and black frost

[granite wren]

Very fair

What about a teeny Rise plush with her Q model

[jade willow]

I guess that would make sense considering she's an idol in p5r

Also thanks to Zylos her outfit is looking better in game!

not too bad

I need to fix the ponytail so I can have a hair up option as well..

[jade frigate]

question where do i get that hair style

[jade willow]

The one in the images is a part of a mod Im planning on releasing sometime soon. I wanted to fix the clipping issues firstly, but I dont think its a realistic goal

[jade frigate]

ooo hype

[jade willow]

I guess I should get serious about finishing it then since Ive decided...

[granite wren]

https://tenor.com/view/smilingfriends-boss-tiny-hands-up-season-2-gif-12296056204251662294

Rise to Rose

[jade willow]

hair down is cute too Too bad it clips in bed

[jade willow]

By the way Venus! Do you have any ideas for a Pilates type of workout outfit?

I really liked Mont's figure skating outfit but I cant find a rip of it.

[bold mortar]

not yukari

the vanilla winter casual

[bold mortar]

guhhh

send me that outfit

[jade willow]

the one in the image?

I really like it so much Imagining it with the side ponytail would be too cute

[granite wren]

Oh wow that is a nice one

[jade willow]

With the cute little sneakers and socks it would be so cute!

Maybe I should ask in p5modding if anyone has it

[granite wren]

Honestly I don't know if I CAN think of something to beat that one

Try P5modding yeah

[jade willow]

MORTY HAD IT YAYY

[granite wren]

https://tenor.com/view/yakuza-yakuza-like-a-dragon-ichi-ichiban-cheer-gif-25899880

[jade willow]

no textures but tbh we can probably work with that 😎

(says the person with the biggest texture issues ever)

[bold mortar]

skirt is a bit problematic

[jade willow]

Bester what vers. of blender do you use?

can you open this fbx fine?

[granite wren]

Oooooh the coat really brings it together

[bold mortar]

3.6

[bold mortar]

the issue is though is the shirt is really high

and the skirt doesn't fit

[granite wren]

Yeah it's weird how high the shirts are in Persona

[bold mortar]

i can't proportional edit the sweater down either because the texture will stretch

[granite wren]

[jade willow]

eer yeah idk about this

[bold mortar]

separate by loose parts

[jade willow]

Idk how to get it into a vers. of blender I can work with

[bold mortar]

i can look at it later

playing games rn

[jade willow]

wait I think I got it

[jade willow]

[granite wren]

[bold mortar]

ok

should be easier to work with

[jade willow]

the skirt is not cooperating

[granite wren]

AAA IT LOOKS SO CUTE IN PINK

[jade willow]

the vision is there but the execution not so much 😭

we got the textures!!!!!!

[bold mortar]

ok almost done

@granite wren should i put a scarf on this one?

[granite wren]

Yes definitely

[bold mortar]

i wonder which scarf then

[jade willow]

progress....

there's no armature though

[granite wren]

Perfect

[bold mortar]

should i have gloves on this one?

i kinda like it without the gloves

[granite wren]

Same actually

Gloveless here

[bold mortar]

alright then midwinter casual is done

guh the exported gmd isn't showing up in gfd

[jade willow]

time to figure out how to pose this right

[bold mortar]

WHY

what the fuck...

[jade willow]

can i see it?

maybe its your gfd version or something?

[mossy marlin]

the fuck am I looking at...

[jade willow]

Yosuke dressed as a school girl

[bold mortar]

too late

almost done remaking it now

ok finished

[bold mortar]

ah shit

accidently overwrote the uniform version

[jade willow]

🫠

How do you guys get clothes without an armature from a pose to t pose?

[bold mortar]

ok finished remaking it

[jade willow]

I have to get going, but if you want to take a look at it here's the pieces separated

[bold mortar]

k

[bold mortar]

i wonder how i should do the incognito outfit

[peak drift]

The scariest way I’ve ever seen someone do it is masking and then the move tool

[jade willow]

Hmm when I get home I'll have to try that.

I was thinking of maybe using a lattice as well

Putting the armature in a pose doesn't work 😭

[jade willow]

nvm i figured it out!

[bold mortar]

perhaps i can just leave the incognito hair as is and say she's wearing a wig or something

[jade willow]

Its kinda hard because she's dyed her hair

[bold mortar]

yeah exactly

that's all i can really think of though

reminds me i need to make a hair down model

hmmm

i can either steal and modify futaba's hairstyle for that

or use the existing hair down model

[jade willow]

You should use the long haired vers. of Kasumi down

[bold mortar]

the what

[jade willow]

like when she goes to bed

[bold mortar]

so the the default mesh?

the alternative is editing this

ah man

you gotta be kidding me

the P5D works with the defaul futaba hair texture

ffs

at the front part does at least

i'm so annoyed

[jade willow]

me too.

Why is her arm doing that 😭

[bold mortar]

am i cooking or should i just use the default hair down mesh

[jade willow]

uuuh

Idk it looks pretty good to me so far

I would just do the default mesh tho tbh

[bold mortar]

alright

i'll save this if i want to come back to it later then

i should still probably apply futaba's hair texture though

well the upside of the futaba hair texture is its better quality

now i need to figure out how to match the colors though

hmmm

seems off still

[jade willow]

bruh

I spent 20 minutes with this just to realize it was a super simple thing I was doing wrong

okay it was like 10

[bold mortar]

dang still off

ffs

might be as close as i can get it

[jade willow]

ugh finally

[bold mortar]

nice

what happened to the choker on it?

[jade willow]

does she look weird to you?

idk If Im having "stared too long" syndrome

[bold mortar]

looks fine to me

ok the new texture got applied to every model

which means i can go back to making new models

hmmm

@jade willow should I customize the pajamas at all or just leave them as is?

[jade willow]

I really hated when I did the pj set I did

So idk its up to you

[bold mortar]

hmmm

i think they look fine as is

so i'll just make the basic changes and move on

[jade willow]

Time for the final boss battle

textures, materials & UVs

Wait I just realized I have the alt bang ponytail...

[jade willow]

I think this looks so cute

Time to test it in game....

[bold mortar]

jail outfit done

[jade willow]

we made it in game 😭

her hair is doing that bang thing again

Ill have to check that out next time

[bold mortar]

fixed some issues with the yukari uniform and PJs too

and the towel is done

so

not much left

besides metaverse costumes

[jade willow]

Nice!!

I actually forgot about the metaverse costumes..

[bold mortar]

i'll have to make a mask model

and also i need to figure out the incognito situation

[jade willow]

I thought about the incognito for the rise hair, Im probably just going to use the same and have the logic that Kasumi either straightened her hair or she usually curls it

[bold mortar]

man all i can think to do here is change the skin tone

and pretend she's wearing a wig ig

actually if its a wig then it should be sumire's hair color

[jade willow]

Okay Next time Ill do some more editing and then get into textures and putting the rise ponytail on

and then I need to fix the ponytail too...Too bad I cant use this ribbon, its quite fitting

[bold mortar]

man the english voices are so jarring to hear

[jade willow]

You play in Japanese?

[bold mortar]

yeah

[surreal ermine]

it looks a lot like a gymnast's workout outfit

[jade willow]

Is Kasumi's lines in Japanese too?

[surreal ermine]

yeah there's a japanese version

[bold mortar]

yeah

[jade willow]

I thought so too!

Idk I like english dub, I think everyone sounds nice

But its cool that there is a Japanese version as well

I kinda wanna go for this aesthetic but we'll see how it goes with the textures

[surreal ermine]

girl on the right is cute

[bold mortar]

idk english voices with japanese honorifics are kinda weird to me

besides i'm just used to playing these games in japanese at this point

habit developed with yakuza

[surreal ermine]

the first yakuza gamei played was yakuza 7 since it had robbie daymond in it

[bold mortar]

ok incognito outfit made

[surreal ermine]

so i played yakuza 7 in the dub. i think i'll replay it in sub if i every play it again

[bold mortar]

the order I played was 0, k1, k2, 7, 3, 4, 5, 6, ishin, kenzan, judge eyes, lost judgment, gaiden, and then 8

[surreal ermine]

i followed the actual chronological order after 7

i'm on the last chapter of yakuza 5, but i have yet to finish it lmao

[bold mortar]

5's ending is kino

[surreal ermine]

wait kenzan was never translated? how did you play it?

[bold mortar]

used a guide

same for ishin

https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL76BD5F1774AD379E&si=08nwY_Qbs9GVt_W7

used this guide in fact

[surreal ermine]

yeah i have all of the games bought except pirate yakuza

[bold mortar]

i refuse to buy pirate yakuza

[surreal ermine]

i'm just waiting for it to get to half off. i did that for gaiden and 8 too

[bold mortar]

8 was already bad

don't need to play another stinker

[surreal ermine]

modern yakuza games kind of stagnate around 50-60% off so i wait for that

[bold mortar]

not bad for incognito ig

[bold mortar]

i'm not gonna buy another one of their games until the 1920s one comes out

i do hope the protagonist actually kills people in that one

[surreal ermine]

they're not gonna make a prequel prequel... they literally said they will not make a game where the protagonist is a yakuza for the whole game

unless they have a period where kazama was not a yakuza

[bold mortar]

yeah ik i hate that

it's like we have to follow this stupid rule about kiryu not killing

[surreal ermine]

that was a mistranslation

it was "kiryu doesn't kill in cold blood" aka he doesn't kill without reason

[bold mortar]

yeah ik since in 5 he debunks it

i should replay 4 and 5

they're so kino

[bold mortar]

ok whats left

job outfits ig

oh and the defaul midwinter outfits

and the default summer outfit

but that should be it otherwise

for the overworld models at least

[jade willow]

I have no idea how the rise hair will look with the PT outfit

[bold mortar]

hmm ok

[molten finch]

That's a perfect incognito Kasumi, also you gonna give her Red Eyes to match the Sumire Disguise? since in R&V, she wears Contact Lenses, so I'd imagine she has different colors of Contact lenses!

[bold mortar]

she's already wearing the glasses so the contact lenses would be superfluous

besides, i like retaining certain differentiating elements

yukata done

[surreal ermine]

isn't the hair clipping slightly

[bold mortar]

no

[molten finch]

hmmkay there!

[bold mortar]

well maybe a tiny bit

[errant zenith]

Whoa now we’re actually gyaruing Kasumi

[bold mortar]

actually since this is the summer one i think i'll ditch this

[jade willow]

Wait does her arms look too thin here??

I feel like something is off about her body but I could be over critical

[bold mortar]

a little yeah

[jade willow]

okay let me add that to the list.

[bold mortar]

oh shit i have these reversed

the orange one is the summer one

[jade willow]

You can just change the name right

[bold mortar]

no because i put the fur on the summer one by accident

[jade willow]

uhoh

[bold mortar]

it's ok i fixed it

i think i'm gonna add one of these ornaments too

[surreal ermine]

oh wait i just noticed serpent you got the crow tag too lol

[jade willow]

i stole it from you

thanks btw!

[surreal ermine]

np lol

[jade willow]

alt girl kasumi next??? 👀

[surreal ermine]

omg

get her some eyeliner and black lipstick

[jade willow]

change the blankets for black ones

[surreal ermine]

with spiderwebs and stuff

she dyes her hair red during the incognito phase to look more like sumire

then dyes it back

[jade willow]

and her mask off eyes could be red

[bold mortar]

i was thinking about using this argumentation, but doesn't kasumi still just use all the same default outfits outside of the incognito one?

[jade willow]

the only thing is I dont think I know enough about the aesthetic

[surreal ermine]

sorry i'm alt so i like stuff like this... i've gotten more relaxed as time goes on (bc i'm lazy) but i was really into all the chains and baggy paints and rings asnd stuff at one point

[bold mortar]

ok nvm ig

[jade willow]

You would really love this outfit then. Cross earring, chain kinda heart thingies? Very alt vibes

[surreal ermine]

very

[jade willow]

Hmm. Do the girls in p3r have hair ornaments?

It looks like Mitsuru does at least

[surreal ermine]

my vanity is still coooovered in chains and necklaces. the only stuff that remains that i really wear now is earrings. i mostly wear baggy shirts and sweats/cargo pants now

[bold mortar]

could see if p3d has it

[jade willow]

wrong link

[bold mortar]

i don't have deviantart

[surreal ermine]

you don't need one to download the models? i think

[bold mortar]

nope

ok i'll try looking at it

[jade willow]

yukari seems to have something too

[bold mortar]

no it needs an account

[surreal ermine]

make one... ig

[bold mortar]

erm @jade willow can you download it for me

[jade willow]

sure, which one ?

idk here is both

[bold mortar]

ok i'll see which one is better

actually i'll use both

yukari on the summer one

mitsuru on the winter one

weird

i don't have an option to import xps

@jade willow how are you importing them?

what addon?

[jade willow]

Kasumi is so cute

[jade willow]

Oh https://github.com/Valerie-Bosco/XNALara-io-Tools

[surreal ermine]

omg cute

[jade willow]

Kasumi can really pull off some different hair colors

[bold mortar]

that reminds me i need to add the sunglasses to something

[surreal ermine]

the weight distribution should be easy too. just two hair strands

[bold mortar]

actually

hmmm

[jade willow]

Yeah I was thinking they should work with the ponytail's bones

[surreal ermine]

you just duplicate it

[bold mortar]

@jade willow do you mind if I use the barbie model you made for the summer casual?

[jade willow]

I dont mind!

Im going to use that for my mod too tho, but rise hair ofc

also if youre going to use it trim her chest a bit because I noticed some clipping but didnt get around to fixing it yet

[bold mortar]

i will

wtf these mf xps refuse to import

[jade willow]

Are you sure they arent just tiny?

my xps are always so small

[bold mortar]

no i get an error

ffs

[bold mortar]

i'm gonna work on this for a while ig

[jade willow]

idk I just installed it normally

I didnt unzip it or anything

[bold mortar]

me neither

idk it might be my blender version

[jade willow]

ohh actually I use 4.5

You might need to find a different add on

[bold mortar]

rip

[jade willow]

girl youre losing your hair...

[bold mortar]

oh i need to rig this for the shoes

[jade willow]

rig what

[bold mortar]

the feet

[jade willow]

are those my shoes 👀

[bold mortar]

unless you already added the shoe and sock nodes

[jade willow]

so those shoes are so freaking scuffed one of them is literally crooked

[bold mortar]

the sunglasses were crooked too...

[jade willow]

I forgot about that because I was like "no one is ever gonna look" but here we are

[jade willow]

no thats intentional, its for style !

[bold mortar]

oh

well i moved them

[jade willow]

Well the right shoe (Kasumi's right) is a mess sooo

[bold mortar]

i'm gonna see if i can find some alternative shoes

[jade willow]

tbh putting shoes on her is hell

[bold mortar]

bro what

[jade willow]

You cant complain about the quality of my outfits, thats rude yknow!

[bold mortar]

gonna steal makoto's

[bold mortar]

@jade willow ok i think i finished it

😭 wtf is this

[errant zenith]

hol up

blusumi?!

[bold mortar]

what

[errant zenith]

i saw this

blue + kasumi = blusumi

[bold mortar]

ah

[errant zenith]

Yea my jokes are bad

[bold mortar]

ok W

wtf why is the texture not loading

ok there we go

@jade willow lol

wtf

[errant zenith]

Concrete flower

[bold mortar]

idk how to solve this...

ok what

all of this for a model which only appears for 5 minutes...

ok finally

doesn't seem to interact with light though

finally

ok it's finally done

that was miserable

weird

the yukari hair ornament doesn't seem to have a texture

i'll need to find one ig

yeah for some reason it doesn't have it

though the preview image for the models definitely has it

ok found the texture

much better

ok finally these outfits are done

took an two hours for two models which are used collectively for 15 minutes of game time

i'm gonna go to bed now

[humble gull]

Hey, I just want to say that I absolutely adore this mod and I'm cheering you guys on even though I don't know the first thing about modding. Yoshizawa is my favorite character, and this has made me love her as a character even more!

I'm so excited to see even more updates to the mod and be able to enjoy it even more!

[random hinge]

Glad you like it!

[hollow owl]

Gyarusumi

Jk

[rapid mural]

old response but: Deutsch is fairly straightforward when compared to english. What’s nice is the spelling is similar and(at least I think so) Once you get into a rhythm it’s a beautiful language. learning the gendered nouns is always tricky though. (Since english doesn’t have them)

Also lots of great music to listen to why you are learning from Die Toten Hosen(punk) Die Silbermond(Rock) Subway To Sally(Rock/Celtic/Fusion) and obviously Rammstein.

<—-Deutsch is my second language

Nani?

I spent too much time with manga and being sick.

Kasumi is blond now?

[hollow owl]

lol

No it’s just people messing with blender

[jade willow]

okay should I go for pink skirt or black skirt?

actually side by side I think the black skirt looks cute..

I wonder if I should make the skirt longer. Its supposed to be like leggings though

[jade willow]

Idk about the bow

[errant zenith]

What if it’s on the back

[jade willow]

for most pilates outfits its on the side or the front

But I guess if it looks odd I can just not have it

[bold mortar]

Gyarumi

Gyasumi

Idk...

[bold mortar]

Kasumi being blonde is a mod I'm working on

[bold mortar]

ok i need to fix this

fixed it @jade willow

[jade willow]

what is thissss 😭

I imagine Ryuji as a dog at first lol

[jade willow]

You should give me the model so I can have the better one, too

[bold mortar]

ok i need to do the other summer casual outfits

[jade willow]

thank you!

[jade willow]

What other ones?

[bold mortar]

fuuka dress and mitsuru outfit

[bold mortar]

btw send me the new outfit you're working on when you're done

[jade willow]

the pilates one?

[bold mortar]

yeah

[rapid mural]

Oh how wonderful. Oh! I have an idea. what if when you are all finished there is a outfit that makes her Blonde when she goes undercover in December? (For people who either use Red Rose or Brown Hair Kasumi)

But In any case I kind of want to put my playthrough on hold because I am days away from Hawaii. And Kasumi is dating Ann.

Arigato for all your hard work. Modding is very tiring so as exciting as your project is Pace yourself.

Don’t Forget: You are Sugoi You Are Wonderful And You are more important than a beautiful mod.

[bold mortar]

maybe

but part of the incognito arc in R&V is predicated on being mistaken for sumire

so idk maybe

[jade willow]

Okay! Are you planning on using it as a sport outfit too?

If you edit the mesh to be more neat share it with me too

[bold mortar]

idk yet

might make it a a summer outfit perhaps

i'm not sure about the mitsuru outfit

[granite wren]

Oh yeah Dove I know textures are hell but if you can make a gyaru version of the pink PJs I could get you a Steam game or something 🙏

[jade willow]

The tsubasa ones? Gyaru as in Bester's? If it's okay with him I can just use his model and put those clothes on her

[granite wren]

Yeah

Well, yeah both counts

[jade willow]

Also no worries for paying me back, I just like to have fun with it!

[granite wren]

I just know textures can be awful

feels bad asking a tough request for free

[jade willow]

I just struggle with them personally

But you like the style of the pajamas (color too) and just want it on Gyaru right?

[granite wren]

Yeah!

[jade willow]

That should be easy enough once bester is done 👍

[granite wren]

Exactly

Thank you, both of you

[jade willow]

Oh are these the Gyaru ones? Thank you 🙂‍↕️

Also idk about the sport outfit being a summer outfit. She has layers on

[bold mortar]

idk i just dunno what to do with the mitsuru outfit

[jade willow]

You mean the one with the long skirt?

[bold mortar]

yeah

idk how it'd fit with the gyaru thing

[jade willow]

Idk if that's Gyaru style tbh

Wait I thought you were using Yukari for summer casual

[bold mortar]

you mean like yukari's winter casual?

[jade willow]

Huh?

Are we talking about summer or winter causal

Tbh I don't know what to do yet for Winter Casual

[bold mortar]

summer

what do you mean by yukari outfit

[jade willow]

The outfit with the jeans

Isn't that your summer causal ?

[bold mortar]

yeah the default option

[jade willow]

Oooooh you want more options for it?

[bold mortar]

well i'm just gonna be using the same config options as the other mods

so theres gonna be the mitsuru outfit option

[jade willow]

Ah I have no idea then

Maybe make her bow pink

[bold mortar]

yeah...

[jade willow]

I don't know what to do for winter causal

[bold mortar]

for yours?

[jade willow]

Yeah

[bold mortar]

hmm idk

for mine i used a lot of defaul outfits

though i consider the yukari outfit to be the default so the other one i made is just kinda there as an option

though i kinda like the winter casual i made

[jade willow]

Yeah I think the yukari winter casual is a obvious choice for me

[jade willow]

This is very cute

I could use Mont's casual as a winter causal...but I feel it's a little preppy for the aesthetic I'm aiming for

[rapid mural]

Oh….. That’s Clever. Thanks for all your hard work She’s such a fun character.

[granite wren]

if we could give the Miyu one some better leg cover maybe

cuz I think the top is promising but those shorts need to go or

https://tenor.com/view/kris-noelle-dance-deltarune-ice-gif-3559165176338577380

[jade willow]

I saw that one but I didnt really care for the sweater...

[granite wren]

Fair enough

[jade willow]

textures stay my #1 opp

[granite wren]

https://tenor.com/view/it's-johnny-that's-my-son-sing-big-daddy-illumination-gif-6752991134414696950

[jade willow]

I need some Kasumi (real) x Akechi fanfiction

[bold mortar]

look there it is

[jade willow]

the textures?

[bold mortar]

no the outfit

and the textures

[jade willow]

You were looking for it?

[bold mortar]

no

it's just me saying you did it

[jade willow]

no the textures are messed up

[bold mortar]

oh i can fix those easy

[jade willow]

she looks like she lost a battle with the tanner

Idk Im gonna look at them later Im not at my pc now

[bold mortar]

idk it's not terribly different from mine

[bold mortar]

hmmmm

needs some edits

hmmm

idk what else to do here

maybe recolor the shirt

[granite wren]

Yeah I think do the shirt and it'd be fine ngl
Could a cream colour work...

[bold mortar]

uhhh

what would be a good cream color\

[granite wren]

I'm gonna sound a bit mental saying this but I'm almost picturing a Rhubarb and Custard style colour contrast between the shirt and pink ribbon

[bold mortar]

which one of these

[granite wren]

The cream from the middle

[bold mortar]

idk i think beige would be better than this

[granite wren]

Ahh yeah maybe with the lighting it didn't look as good as I pictured

Try beige?

[bold mortar]

maybe a darker color

like this perhaps

or this

[granite wren]

My vote

That purple is kinda smooth

[warm sand]

hey @random hinge sorry for the @ if someone else has already pointed it out, but the bustup example on the mod page looks like it got a little messed up

[bold mortar]

ok this one

[granite wren]

[bold mortar]

wristband or no?

[granite wren]

Wristband

[bold mortar]

ok

that means the mitsuru outfit is done then ig

[jade willow]

she looks cute

[random hinge]

Oh, whoops. Looks like that portrait got duplicated when I edited that collage. Thanks, I'll fix it

[bold mortar]

ok PT outfit done

[jade willow]

Looking good joker 👌

[granite wren]

It's almost scary how good you are

[bold mortar]

been doing this for 5 years

and i have nothing better to do this weekend

white done

[jade willow]

By the way earlier, I noticed the sitting issues on the yukari outfit

How did you fix it ??

[bold mortar]

some of the bones weren't weighted properly

so i added more weight paint to them

red and white done

hmmm whats left

oh yeah the default midwinter outfits

[lusty cape]

She looks like female crow than female joker silly/j

[bold mortar]

i mean i don't use this option, it just exists so idk

could recolor this one to pink ig

midwinter uniform

midwinter casual

[bold mortar]

workout outfits done

convenience store outfits

[jade willow]

Are you ready to publish ?

[bold mortar]

no because i have to make these for every variant

i.e. the interrogation outfit

and also i need to make every metaverse costume

and also check if i'm missing any overworld outfits still

[jade willow]

You did so much progress though..

[bold mortar]

44 models according to file explorer

most have had a lot of handcrafting to them

wonder if i should add those sunglasses to any other model

[bold mortar]

looks like i'm almost done with the overworld models

that means i'll start doing all the variations

then finish off with the metaverse costumes

assuming nothing will take forever to do

i could be done by tuesday

well that also assumes i won't need to do any substantial reworks after testing

[jade willow]

You know something lowkey

I shouldve done Mitsuru's hairstyle instead of Rise's

[bold mortar]

perhaps

would've probably saved you the headache

[jade willow]

Its very similar as well.

Well maybe I'll do that as an alt option in the future idk.

Rn I need to find a winter casual

[bold mortar]

hmmm

[bold mortar]

i think i will be lazy about these models

i don't feel like trying to make the pale skin combine with the tan

ngl i would have saved myself a lot of trouble if i didn't go for the tan

maaaan

i really don't want to make the sleeves rolled up work with this skin tone

fuck this i'm just gonna have the sleeves be normal

[bold mortar]

@random hinge do you have any specific days that you would go to with mod menu in order to test models?

[jade willow]

this or that

[bold mortar]

forgot to do the yukiko outfit

ok i don't feel like putting effort into these

[jade willow]

lmao thats so me

[bold mortar]

or the blue dress

[jade willow]

Bester which dress do you like better from the two above?

[bold mortar]

why put in a bunch of effort for an outfit i'll never use

[bold mortar]

the one on the right

[jade willow]

Oh really? hmm okay

anyways i need to sleep for now. My brain is really liking the left one but idk, the right one seems more detailed

[bold mortar]

both are fine

choose which you prefer

[jade willow]

Yeah true I should just have fun with it

[bold mortar]

i wonder where i might be able to include the sunglasses

besides the yukari summer casual

[random hinge]

I have saves to test outfits in the overworld. From them, I test certain events so I can look at certain animations ingame (or the shoe removal)

[bold mortar]

i see

i don't have saves so i'll have to mod menu it ig

[random hinge]

Those are the days I use (may not be optimal):
Winter uniform : 4/21
Winter casual : 5/10
Summer Uniform : 11/23
Summer casual : 7/27
Midwinter uniform : 2/2
Midwinter casual : 2/1

And I have 2 saves during palaces (Futaba's and last palace) to test combat

Futaba's is to avoid Futaba stealing the AOA every time

[bold mortar]

ty

[errant zenith]

Sweet

[bold mortar]

OK

all of the overworld models have been replaced

so tomorrow i'll make the metaverse costumes

then probably some scuffed bustups

man i wish these model mods didn't have to take up so much space

[jade willow]

need to fix some weight issues but I guess its a pretty good winter casual? I think maybe its too dark so I'd have to change the black to something with more color I guess

[bold mortar]

yeah

black won't work unless her hair is black too probably

[jade willow]

my answer to every problem is make it pink 💀

[granite wren]

It's not your fault pink looks good on everything

[jade willow]

true and real

The problem is Im so bad with color theory

[jade willow]

girl what is happening to you 😭

[bold mortar]

guys

for a mod name

do you like Gyasumi or Gyarumi

i kinda like Gyasumi

[granite wren]

Gyasumi

[bold mortar]

"Gyasumi as Protagonist"

[bold mortar]

need to fix the mat lol

[errant zenith]

Gyasumi

[bold mortar]

ok time to make the metaverse costumes

[bold mortar]

Once I finish with these I can begin testing

Hopefully none of the models are fucked up

I checked them all in GFD so far and they looked fine

[jade willow]

materials fixed

The only issue is Idk about the color

[random hinge]

Dark blue could be nice too

[jade willow]

I do quite like this actually! I wonder if thats too dark or not

[granite wren]

It seems fine to me, I've seen navy-coloured clothes in that shade before

[jade willow]

Okay I like this, I think I will make the pockets black though so it better fits the dress

[granite wren]

[surreal ermine]

cutie

[molten finch]

So in-character Kasumi/Rose with this pose lol

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/232037676759384064/1442428285257777183/Screenshot_20251124_020938_YouTube.jpg?ex=69260e46&is=6924bcc6&hm=87fa6e91b543d48e27f4ec2f35939866ffbfb03eedcc265f8e909ff4d4e60947&

[errant zenith]

Sounds like Kasumi and Sumire has a third sister

[bold mortar]

should keep the hometown models normal

like the idea would be kasumi went gyaru after the shido incident

@jade willow @granite wren thoughts?

[granite wren]

I like that idea
She wanted to differentiate herself/move on, found herself liking the style

[bold mortar]

okie dokie

whats annoying about the hometown outfits though is that they're the same as the incognito outfit lol

or close enough

so idk which is the specific model names for the hometown

[granite wren]

Would Amiticia have it listed maybe?

[jade willow]

I also like this idea. I imagine gymnasts have a kinda image they need to uphold if they're at her level. So now she can let loose

In my head canon for Kasumi I imagined while she loved gymnastics after she lost it all she didnt have to live as strict of a lifestyle, found her true self and built genuine friendships she couldnt have before due to how much time she put into gymnastics and grades, etc

[granite wren]

I like to think she keeps up gymnastics but more casually afterwards but never at the national level or anything, happy to get away from the pressure and strictness

[jade willow]

yep! for her PT leader stuff

It makes more sense for Rose to be zip lining around and doing backflips tbh

[granite wren]

Then after the story she ends up becoming a coach after being inspired by her own

[jade willow]

very cute!

[bold mortar]

not specifically

[bold mortar]

also this lets me skip editing the gymnastics leotards lol

[bold mortar]

yasogami

man why am i putting in the work for metaverse costumes 😭

[errant zenith]

Don’t you mean

YasoGyaru

[jade willow]

She is so so so cute!!

[bold mortar]

joker's default gloves only work with sleeves

so i had to make this

ok i've finished all the models i think

[bold mortar]

bruh what

[jade willow]

nice ponytail

[jade willow]

hold my hand and say it: "I hate textures"

[bold mortar]

i'll fix it

[jade willow]

This outfit is so girlypop

[bold mortar]

wait it's off center

shoot

[jade willow]

What?

[bold mortar]

the sunglasses

see

the other outfits seem to work good

now it's centered

[bold mortar]

no

fixed it

[jade willow]

Im happy for you

[bold mortar]

ok good i replaced the right model

[surreal ermine]

the gang

[bold mortar]

blonde gang

ok hmmm

i think i've tested most of it

except the new years scene

and the midwinter outfits in the overworld

ok yeah all of them except for the new years and midwinter outfits

@surreal ermine do you have a save at new years?

[surreal ermine]

day? no

[bold mortar]

new years eve?

[bold mortar]

actually can you send me a save from third semester anyways?

[surreal ermine]

ye

[bold mortar]

ty

[surreal ermine]

1/27

it's inside a palace but you can leave

[bold mortar]

ty

i think since the flags are already enabled i can force the new year's scene from that save

ok good it works

[jade willow]

Very cute

I need to work on my mod...😭 I have such issues with skirt weights

[bold mortar]

i think i'm pretty much done now

since i'm hopeless when it comes to bustups

and also i can't think of anything else to test atm

wait

oh right

i need to fix the masks

also i need to make a nice thumbnail
