@random hinge i see what you mean about futaba's AOAs

#

bruh wtf

#

why does it keep doing this

rich tree
#

to make you question life the universe and everything

bold mortar
#

ok finally

#

hmm this will not do as a thumbnail

#

it'd actually be easier if I could use ann's animation

#

i wonder which one is her animation though...

jade willow
#

Bruh this is so cute you should release it now so we can play with it cinna_happy

bold mortar
jade willow
#

does that actually work for her properly? I love that

bold mortar
#

i have to put her on ann's armature

jade willow
#

I need to work on the showtime animations too

#

but my pc REALLY doesnt like that

bold mortar
#

what i'm doing is just trying to make the image look nice enough so i can take a screenshot an make a thumbnail out of that

#

the fingers get weird in the second one

#

idk how to solve that tbh

bold mortar
jade willow
#

I like the first one better

bold mortar
#

k

#

then i'm done getting the pose

jade willow
jade willow
#

the other ones she looks kinda dead

bold mortar
bold mortar
#

ok done

#

which means i think it's more or less ready to upload

bold mortar
#

@jade willow thoughts?

#

made this

jade willow
jade willow
bold mortar
#

ok rolling with this then

jade willow
#

also can I use your jacket for a midwinter? CatWhat

bold mortar
#

yeah sure

jade willow
#

Cool then I will proceed with this design then!!

#

After I finish this midwinter I think Im done as well...

bold mortar
#

ok time to add every single credit dark

#

very annoying that i can't copy paste them

jade willow
#

wowww WhiteBear_Happy

#

do you think youll post tmwr?

bold mortar
#

yeah

#

whenever i wake up

#

btw @jade willow what is your GB username?

jade willow
#

Yayy sounds fun. Im probably gonna play with it tomorrow then

jade willow
#

Serpent.Dove

bold mortar
#

ty

#

i'm gonna do some homework and then test it a little bit more before publishing it

jade willow
#

alrighty!

#

GL with your essay

bold mortar
#

nah essay is done

#

this is just some homework

#

maybe this mod will earn me the big bucks

#

i swear i'm gonna get reports of the mf weird hair bug i've been getting

#

ok time for some testing

#

wtf causes this

#

oh zylvos is on i'll ask him

#

@random hinge do you have any idea?

#

hmm

#

weird

#

it seems to happen randomly at startup

#

here it's fine

random hinge
bold mortar
#

idk the thing is it seems to happen randomly

#

with the two images i posted, I made no edits

#

so idk what it's calling when booting up that it does that

random hinge
#

Can you share that model so I can have a look ?

bold mortar
#

i've also had it happen on the winter coffee brewer outfit, the shujin tracksuit, one of the uniforms, and the yukari winter casual

random hinge
#

The diffuse texture used is a shadow texture

bold mortar
#

huh

#

weird

random hinge
#

Well, the name

#

I'm fairly confidant that name is used by another duplicate shadow texture somewhere else

#

So just rename it

bold mortar
#

time to check every model naosmiley

random hinge
#

Yep, no choice here :/

#

On bootup, the "real" shadow texture with that name is loaded first so that's why it appears like that. When you reloaded, the game loads the texture from the model again and it looks as it should

#

So usually, I've found that kind of issue to be caused by texture names

bold mortar
#

goody

#

well at least the fix is straightforward

#

should be able to fix this within an hour or two

bold mortar
#

or should i just stick to blender

#

hmm maybe blender is better

random hinge
#

You can rename textures in GFD, but you also need to reassign the texture to the material(s). It's a bit annoying and sometimes, GFD doesn't export material properties correctly. I mostly use GFD to preview the models

#

It's quite easy in Blender

#

Go to Blender files in this menu

#

Go to the Image drop down menu, find the texture and double click on it to rename it

bold mortar
#

i see

#

what i'm doing is just importing each one, going to the shading menu, renaming it, then exporting it

random hinge
#

And also double neck

granite wren
#

Omg the pink sailor bow and glasses admire

bold mortar
#

i'll look through them again when i finish with the hair thing

bold mortar
#

two hours and i'm finished

bold mortar
#

man i'm exhausted

random hinge
molten finch
bold mortar
# random hinge

But Morgana, what if I made the decision to sleep on my own naosmiley

#

But yeah I'm gonna sleep and the gyasumi will be out whenever I wake up

granite wren
jade willow
#

working on my model and then realizing its Sumire

#

twins do be twinning

bold mortar
jade willow
#

I think its because Im grabbing Sumire's long haired models instead of Kasumi's

#

I forgot I downloaded long haired sumi

bold mortar
#

Have fun guys

bold mortar
granite wren
#

Feasting rn

bold mortar
#

Its funny how much I put into certain models for this mod

#

Even though they show up for no time at all

#

Or in the case of metaverse costumes, aren't used at all by most people

random hinge
#

Same, ahah

jade willow
#

I use them...

bold mortar
#

For the kimonos I ported over hair ornaments from P3R that took an hour each

#

Actually that reminds me i need to credit that guy who made those modek ports

#

@jade willow who was it that made the p3r xps models

granite wren
#

Oh yeah Dove do you have the pink PJ models to match Gyasumi

woeful isleBOT
jade willow
bold mortar
#

So I don't get how you want the pink pjs to work, do you want me to implement them in my mod?

rich tree
#

can I import your pajama outfit from your mod over to pony tail kasumi?

#

or different modal?

granite wren
#

that's how I tested them for Dove before Gyasumi became a thing

bold mortar
#

Though maybe what @jade willow might want to do is send the pink PJs to zyvlos to include as an option

#

That's what I would do at least

granite wren
#

Fair dos Naonod

bold mortar
#

Like for alternate bangs I have this mod sitting in my folder called "alternate bangs reskins"

granite wren
#

Ah shoot yeah lmao that is probably a smarter idea
Well! Now I know what to do next time

jade willow
#

Okay she should be good. I think it makes sense for her to not wear makeup to bed. Nice detail bester

jade willow
#

But once I finish testing it a bit more I can send it over.

jade willow
#

I feel kinda self conscious knowing modders will look closely at how everything is just super glued together miicrying

bold mortar
bold mortar
surreal ermine
bold mortar
#

the only difference between you and the modders like me is experience

#

it's fine to get our work checked

granite wren
#

It is the modding community FemCYay

jade willow
# bold mortar dw about it

Thank you! I guess I could talk to Zylos about it if its something they'd even want. I dont mind whoever wants to use my stuff though so if you want to include it you can. Just dont judge my work or the names of my images (ik theyre weird I just name them whatever) LMAO

granite wren
lethal scaffold
jade willow
bold mortar
#

much as i'd like to include it in my mod rn, idk how to make configs

lethal scaffold
#

What exactly do you want to do in your Config? If it's easy I might be able to

#

with ReMIX Toolkit that is, not just with Coding knowledge since i have none

lethal scaffold
surreal ermine
lethal scaffold
#

ah ok, good to know

#

I've only ever used it for Metaphor

bold mortar
#

hence why my mods are essentially forks of zylvos' mod

jade willow
bold mortar
#

there's always something wrong with our models lol

jade willow
#

for some reason her hair isnt animating cinna_question

granite wren
#

Atlus never makes this easy yukiLaugh

random hinge
# jade willow I feel kinda self conscious knowing modders will look closely at how everything ...

Well, my models (and Atlus' actually) aren't any better. My first models weren't that good, so it's really with experience that you get better at it.
When looking at models, I mainly make adjustments for clipping (if that's needed), chest proportions (if that's needed, ahah) and remove the duplicated textures/materials. I don't mind adding the models to the mod if they're a good fit , which your model is. Let me know if you want me to add it

bold mortar
#

and whenever it gets added to zylvos' mod i'll update all my mods to include it

jade willow
jade willow
granite wren

jade willow

#

time to compress my mods folder so i can bring my mods home with me

random hinge

jade willow
bold mortar
#

i think i should make a mod for vanilla p5r

#

like something for joker

jade willow
#

who is that

bold mortar
#

this guy

#

anyways i don't really like his casual outfits but i can fix those

granite wren
bold mortar
#

well i like the midwinter casual

jade willow
#

red and white on gyarusumi is so peak HAPPY

errant zenith
#

Oh

bold mortar
#

i went through every model to fix that i think

#

but some may have slipped through

#

also for some reason the AOA art didn't appear with this option enabled when i first tested it

jade willow
#

No it looks so good, bester you really cooked with this

bold mortar
#

40 GB of mods....

fiery depot
#

okay so hi I’m lowkey trying to start up this mod but I’m too in love with the short hair kasumi!! Is there a file with the bust ups too? Or is it just the model?

also sorry if this is in the wrong chat!

bold mortar
#

i think short heart kasumi is only the models rn

#

unless @buoyant arch has finished them but i don't think so

fiery depot
#

ooooh okie okie!! Thank you so much!! Also the work you guys are doing is insane I’m so envious!

Keep up the great work but first, always prioritize yourselves ❤️

#

Imma definitely keep popping in to see cause I’m invested

buoyant arch
#

but im getting to it

bold mortar
buoyant arch
#

there's so much to do

#

and I have finals next week

#

and the week after that

bold mortar
#

and i just dumped the gyaru ones on you too naosmiley

buoyant arch
#

yuh

#

im ded

granite wren
#

28 mod portraits
You never gave 'em a chance huh

bold mortar
#

before i spent the weekend making the gyaru mod i wrote two essays back to back

#

i still got finals soon too

surreal ermine
#

i have finals 2 weeks from now... at least i gety a break this week

#

though i don't count the one day i have to spend with my family... exhausting

surreal ermine
#

huh? you mean the romance? i need to do mishima first

versed cloud
#

has anyone faced this yet?

surreal ermine
#

rip

#

@bold mortar

versed cloud
#

it only happens with the winter uniform so far

jade willow
surreal ermine
#

i suppose i'll do some writing tonight

jade willow
#

I really liked that ||he confesssed to Kasumi and had a cute little crush on her|| !Spoilers for R&V!

jade willow
bold mortar
#

I thought I fixed that

surreal ermine
#

oh fuck i forgot i need to update red roswe

jade willow
#

lmao bester

jade willow
surreal ermine
#

correct

bold mortar
surreal ermine
#

i finished the ponytail models but i need to do the long hair models

jade willow
#

I was wondering about that before with the sumi models

surreal ermine
#

i just use gfd studio to texture swap

#

but i also make my own configs so i need to code that too

#

and once a config option reaches more than 2 options i need to switch to using a switch statement

jade willow
surreal ermine
#

you can get gpt to do it

bold mortar
#

I'll have to look when I get home

jade willow
surreal ermine
#

just make sure you're telling it you're using madmax's reloaded config template or it'll try making the config from scratch lol

#

also show it the cri fs extension

#

you can look at wisteria's or mine if you wany

#

both are on github

bold mortar
#

Someone send me this gpt set up

jade willow
versed cloud
surreal ermine
#

look at config.cs and mod.cs

jade willow
#

these?

surreal ermine
#

no

#

mod.cs and config.cs

jade willow
#

ohh I found them.

#

I should test this today with the howler bag charm

surreal ermine
#

ICriFsRedirectorApiExtensions.cs is the extension you need

#

then at the bottom of mod.cs you'll see this which is also needed

        /// <summary>
        /// recursively enumerates all files under the given “subPath” (relative to the mod folder),
        /// and issues a single AddBind(...) per file. If the directory doesn’t exist, it silently does nothing.
        /// </summary>
        private static void BindAllFilesIn(
            string subPathRelativeToModDir,
            string modDir,
            ICriFsRedirectorApi criFsApi,
            string modId
        )
        {
            string absoluteFolder = Path.Combine(modDir, subPathRelativeToModDir);

            if (!Directory.Exists(absoluteFolder))
            {
                // _logger.WriteLine($"Folder not found: {absoluteFolder}", System.Drawing.Color.Yellow);
                return;
            }

            foreach (var filePath in Directory.EnumerateFiles(absoluteFolder, "*", SearchOption.AllDirectories))
            {
                string relativeCpkKey = Path.GetRelativePath(absoluteFolder, filePath).Replace(Path.DirectorySeparatorChar, '/');

                criFsApi.AddBind(
                    filePath,
                    relativeCpkKey,
                    modId
                );
            }
        }```
jade willow
surreal ermine
#

yeah

bold mortar
#

I'm going to get very very annoyed if I have to sift through every model again to find the culprits of the hair issue

jade willow
#

right now I dont really get it

jade willow
bold mortar
#

Yeah ik it's that one specifically

#

But I probably missed a couple more

#

So I might wait a bit before releasing a hotfix

jade willow
#

Didnt you go through and rename them all?

bold mortar
#

Yeah

#

But it's possible I missed a couple

jade willow
bold mortar
#

Oh right

surreal ermine
#

ok now i'm in a modding mood so it's time to do long hair

bold mortar
#

Erm time to finish romance actually naosmiley

jade willow
surreal ermine
#

mm for akechi i'd be doing mostly evt editing

bold mortar
jade willow
#

cinna_question whats that? like making events?

surreal ermine
bold mortar
#

Downside to romancing akechi though is there's probably gonna be no hawaii scene

surreal ermine
#

no nothing

#

except christmas eve (if you get third semester)

bold mortar
#

Rip

#

Though ig if you romance haru it's the same way

surreal ermine
#

well at least with haru you get valentines and white day

jade willow
#

Wait, I guess kasumi and Akechi wouldnt even be dating by the time Hawaii hits right?

surreal ermine
#

same with sumire. you don't get anything but valentines and white day

#

you don't even get christmas lol

jade willow
bold mortar
#

I romanced Hifumi first

surreal ermine
jade willow
#

I found my option 2 for bag charms B_heh

#

also this notebook is very cute as well!

surreal ermine
#

are you just editing the bag? i don't think you need the costume framework cri fs extension

#

in which case you can use remix toolkit

#

the cri fs extension is for editing kasumi

#

though wai,t...

#

when i tried to add the purse without the extension it didn't work

#

idk that's weird to me

bold mortar
#

I've gotten no other complaints about gyasumi so far

#

Man too bad the report came in after I already went to class

#

I could've fixed that really quick

versed cloud
#

no

#

hold on

#

i think its good now

bold mortar
# versed cloud uh

So the reason it does this is that it's named the same thing as the shadow texture

versed cloud
#

ahhh

bold mortar
#

So at startup the game will use either texture

#

That looks like the basic winter casual so I'll check it when I get home

versed cloud
#

ok!

#

love your mod! ^^

surreal ermine
#

it's basically a way to make the game run faster. if it's already loaded a texture why load it again

#

just when there's two textures with the same name...

jade willow
#

apparently there are drawings inside the book. Thats pretty cool 👀

bold mortar
#

Guess I let that slip through like an idiot

jade willow
#

cinna_happy so cutee

#

Maybe the hat looks kinda funny though

bold mortar
#

I wonder if I should do something with the bag for gyasumi

#

Or the phone texture even

granite wren
#

Maybe it's possible to put some stickers on the back of the phone? Or like, make a Rise-themed case or something

granite wren
bold mortar
#

I'd have to find the model though

#

@lethal geode The game won't freak out if I edit the phone .gmd right?

jade willow
#

I think it would be fine to just edit the textures tbh

#

I wanted to replace the model but that seemed a little ambitious. It doesn't have an armature

surreal ermine
#

@random hinge on the kotomo uniform long hair models, you have the black ribbon instead of the red

bold mortar
#

Cool

bold mortar
#

I'm gonna check the other models rq and then make a hotfix

#

sorry about that

versed cloud
#

its ok

random hinge
versed cloud
#

:D

bold mortar
#

since costumes is just kind of an annoying folder

#

ok i missed the kotomo uniform too

#

and the shujin white shirt too apparently

bold mortar
#

missed the winter uniform in the metaverse as well as the overworld outfits for the summer uniform options

bold mortar
#

Gyasumi has been updated

jade willow
#

slay

#

I love the pose

bold mortar
#

also lol @surreal ermine

surreal ermine
#

hello there

bold mortar
#

updated almost at the same time

jade willow
#

omg I was looking for the models of Kasumi's bag thats on the floor in KAP

#

but I guess those were not edited and therefore not included in the mod because I dont see them in here?

#

she really is so cuteee

errant zenith
#

Aww man I’m not home!

jade willow
errant zenith
#

Nope

#

Love gyarus so I’m excited

#

The short hair and ponytail is my most used so this will be a welcome change

jade willow
#

Seeing Gyasumi and Ryuji together makes me feel like theyre better matched now

#

Aesthetically at least

errant zenith
#

Thug and Gyaru

surreal ermine
#

it's even funnier now that ryuji considers her a bro

jade willow
#

The aesthetic is so fun

errant zenith
#

That’s his brogirl

granite wren
#

As I romance Haru it's like the ultimate case of "dating what daddy hates" lmao

The shareholders must be tweaking

errant zenith
#

Or girlbro

jade willow
#

Are gyarus kinda considered to be "bad girls" or delinquents??

errant zenith
#

No daughter of mine will date a gyaru

#

Aww man she’s dating a gyaru

granite wren
#

"Haru it is time for you to marry
You must choose a rich fiance to continue the company's prosperity"

"I'm marrying this kind gyaru girl who I saved from an attic"

"OUR SHAREHOLDER VALUEEEEE"

jade willow
#

the pajamas seem to being going okay too

surreal ermine
jade willow
#

So we should make a gyaru story overhaul yay /s

granite wren
#

I know it's a Japanese subculture too but now I'm thinking of githyanki Ryuji

surreal ermine
#

yanki is usually just translated as "delinquent"

errant zenith
#

Now I’m thinking about the maid event with gyarumi

granite wren
#

Yeah I've just played too much BG3

surreal ermine
#

yanki

jade willow
#

hmmm i think it looks kinda odd

granite wren
#

It looks cute but the hand position would likely need to be adjusted a lot, looking at the way Okyann holds hers

jade willow
#

yeah exactly animation edits

surreal ermine
jade willow
#

why does your pc look cool 🙁

surreal ermine
#

kde plasma peepoGiggle

#

join the linux cult

#

or just my background idk

jade willow
#

oh no not linux

#

why do you use linux??

surreal ermine
#

because i hate microsoft

buoyant arch
#

based

jade willow
#

Gyasumi got today's pick bear_happy

bold mortar
#

my first feature

bold mortar
#

basically you'd have to make a new phone animation for kasumi

#

for now though i may just make a custom phone itself

jade willow
#

the thing is I feel like hoooow often do people really look at the phone to be doing all that

bold mortar
#

depends if you think it's worth doing

#

some parts of the gyasumi mod has a lot of effort put into it despite the fact they'd rarely appear in game

#

or other parts i put next to no effort in

#

like the rise outfits

#

since i don't even use them and won't use them

jade willow
#

I really really suck at posing tho

bold mortar
#

naothumbsup just gotta keep trying

#

almost all of my mods start with hours and hours of trial and error

jade willow
bold mortar
#

i used to

jade willow
#

Wow! How did you learn?

bold mortar
#

it was when i worked on yakuza stuff

jade willow
#

Its funny, Ive never heard of Yakuza games before you

bold mortar
#

i don't remember how to do it though

jade willow
#

You mustve really liked the game

bold mortar
#

yeah

#

now that series is dead though

jade willow
#

Was it long ago that you modded it? I wonder if people still enjoy your mods

bold mortar
#

if any of them are still up i imagine probably not

#

since i cut a lot of corners

jade willow
#

that sounds like me now cbNoo

bold mortar
#

and most of my mods are for personal use anyways

#

so i'm not really interested in super duper quality assurance

jade willow
#

thats how I am too. Also my expectations for happiness are quite low lmao

bold mortar
#

something wasn't to my liking so i changed it

jade willow
#

Oh wow, thats a classic

bold mortar
#

something wasn't exactly to my liking so i made my own thing

jade willow
#

For me, I got out of a relationship and got more free time. My friend told me about R&V and KAP and I got to play it and wished there were more outfits that I found cute.

#

It has been a nice comfort to just play with it and make stuff thats cute

#

Now Kasumi has sooo many *more nice outfits and options

bold mortar
#

for some reason

jade willow
#

heard the cry of the people's hearts

bold mortar
#

yeah ig

jade willow
#

like whast

surreal ermine
#

texture jumpscare

jade willow
#

but how would it even do that 😭

#

tbh this model is so cursed in general. it crashed my blender like 6 times trying to import it in

bold mortar
bold mortar
#

maybe i should make my own shorter fur jacket

#

one of the reasons i ruled out using a pattern on the long was that it would stretch

#

but with a shorter one it wouldn't

jade willow
#

Bester do you have any ideas as to why the game would literally call a texture like that?

#

Its not even named anything weird

bold mortar
#

maybe it has to be in .dds format?

royal mica
#

Finally wrapped up Futaba Arc in my CHN SUB playthrough! Okumura arc is next!

pseudo dock
# jade willow

needs to be DDS, idk how you got into the game without doing that

molten finch
jade willow
pseudo dock
#

What do you mean by 'won't accept'?

jade willow
pseudo dock
jade willow
pseudo dock
#

you just need to readd the picture, you can't really replace an image with another in gfd.

#

I would suggest using blender for it because it's just way easier

jade willow
#

Oh wait! I think I see the problem now that Im in blender. These had some sort of face map in the color section

jade willow
#

Possible winter uniform? WhiteBear_Think

#

how many days does kasumi wear the disguise outfit? 🤔

buoyant arch
#

a month, maybe?

jade willow

Best reports known to man

#

i get the impression that this guy just didn't install something correctly

buoyant arch
#

i see absolutely no issues

bold mortar
#

says the mod has a problem

#

refuses to elaborate

#

leaves

buoyant arch
#

could be worse

bold mortar
#

true

#

i could actually have to do work on the mod

buoyant arch
#

just noticed that 2 of joker's portraits are actually copied

#

from one another

#

one of his thinking portraits and his PT outfit ones are 1:1 on the face and posing

bold mortar
#

retextured the phone

#

will need to figure out what else to do with this though

#

might need some stickers or something

bold mortar
#

something like this

#

here's a picture with a little bit more lighting

granite wren
#

Awwwww

#

It's iconic

bold mortar
#

i think i'll include it in the next update

#

now the next step is implementing a flip phone

#

which i'll leave to someone else since idk how to do that

#

probably should have more than just the phone to add for the update though

#

maybe i could add to the rise models too

safe pebble
#

an option like this would be so cute

#

the polka dot one 😭💕

bold mortar
#

hmmm

#

weird

#

it's not showing up in game

#

ok now it's in game

Happy thanksgiving for those who celebrate cinna_happy

Psst. Keep an eye out for the uploading of more Rose & Violet videos on YouTube soon. 👀 I had to get another save going bc of lost footage, so expect a hiccup or two in confidants until I get the separate confidant videos done.

ANOTHER KARE KANO EDIT

#

wait no, this is the one

#

them big ol eyes

buoyant arch
#

no mole under her eye 😭

foggy mural
#

omg I always miss themoles

buoyant arch
#

looks cool tho

foggy mural
#

this always happens with both akage and kasu

#

there we go

buoyant arch
#

there it is

#

nice

#

i was wondering for some time now. Is it possible to edit the parameters for joker's dialogue bustups? Something close to what we already have with with bustup editor for the other character's dialogues

#

cause I was thinking about something different for my PT dialogue

#

mostly bc it was done without thinking about other hairstyles, so actually making changes became a nightmare

pseudo dock
#

From my knowledge it's hardcoded. You'll probably need to speak to someone who has done code mods to get more info.

buoyant arch
#

poo

#

eh alr

#

yo hold up this may actually be fire though

#

it looks like this in game

#

with the eye placed where it would blink

bold mortar
#

i've come up with a potential solution to my whining about being unable to have the winter casual more

#

could just replace the summer casual with it

bold mortar
#

for gyasumi at least

#

i think the present outfits work just fine for regular kasumi

#

which reminds me i need to finish this run

#

i've been on october 7 for the last two weeks

bold mortar
#

man i wish i could use reloaded ii.5 on my steam deck

#

but it crashes too much

#

it doesn't wwork so good on my desktop either

#

so it only works on my laptop

molten finch
#

And yes I'm aware that Koei Tecmo games are very hard to mod and very impossible there lol

bold mortar
#

but also strikers sucks so there's no reason to mod it

wary veldt
#

If it was possible I know it's impossible that would give me a reason to get strikers on my PC

coral prawn
#

Nothing is impossible, theoretically

#

Strikers is pretty fun in terms of gameplay though

wary veldt
#

I actually have the switch version of Strikers the gameplay was pretty good

molten finch
#

Just bought Reload only because it's on Steam Discount today lol

surreal ermine
buoyant arch
#

you wound me

#

at least the art in there is fine

bold mortar
buoyant arch
#

hack n slash games are fun

#

p5s was not really done the right way to be replayable

#

but fun enough to not grow stale in the first playthrough

gaunt juniper
upper mantle
#

i concur, looks sick!

bold mortar
#

character moments were cool and all but they should've been in 5

#

not in a mediocre retelling of 5's already bad story

molten finch
bold mortar
#

or warriors style games especially

bold mortar
#

i made a reskin for the winter casual

bold mortar
#

anyways time to begin my least favorite segment of the game

buoyant arch
#

out of all

#

which one

bold mortar
#

end of okamura until jaldabaoth

#

admittedly I like Shido's palace and fight

#

but that's about it

#

there it is my least favorite set of dialogue choices in the game

bold mortar
buoyant arch
#

i am most definetly a fan of them

#

leaving my current progress in here, before heading off to a 3 hours late sleep

#

worth it

buoyant arch
#

ain't no "we" in this nonsense

coral prawn
#

"Who's WE?"

vocal kettle
bold mortar
#

and somehow the protagonist is roped into the "we" even though it's literally morgana's fault

bold mortar
bold mortar
#

and then change the third option to blame morgana because i hate him

vocal kettle
bold mortar
#

nah

#

it's morgana's fault

#

maybe ryuji's to some extent too

#

but the game has no payoff even when I say at every turn that things are moving too fast

vocal kettle
bold mortar
#

and the story sucks!

#

see p4 didn't have to worry about the story sucking because the game barely has a story!

#

P4 wins again

#

P4 I'm tired of winning!

errant zenith
#

lol

#

Boy I love p4

surreal ermine
buoyant arch
#

gimme 5

#

minutes

surreal ermine
#

oh? 👀

buoyant arch
#

done

surreal ermine
#

SHE'S SO PRETTY

#

can i jusr say i love your shading

buoyant arch
#

getting the hang of it

#

like I mentioned many times before

#

this is prob my 4th or 5th time trying

#

full on renders

#

for the PT alone

#

and the rest is prob 8 times more

#

ugh this is tiring

#

but so much fun

surreal ermine
#

i've heard rendering can be a pain

#

i imagine it's a lot like editing in writing... whcih tbh i like doing but lmao

buoyant arch
#

im proud of the end result

#

I'll take a quick break, do the blinking and make it official

#

I just don't want to overload Zylvos' config options

surreal ermine
#

don't you need to find someone for the exe editing? in which case you may need a seperate mod

buoyant arch
#

I don't think so, no

#

wdym with an exe editing?

surreal ermine
#

the blinking is hardcoded?

buoyant arch
#

yeah, it is

#

but it fit from my testing

surreal ermine
#

ahhh i see

buoyant arch
#

ill try it again

#

just to make sure

surreal ermine
#

me when atlus hardcodes a fucking bustup...

bold mortar
buoyant arch
#

p4 was fun

#

alr im probably done with "bases"

#

already have one for short hairs, long hairs

#

and the PT will be the same for all bc thou decided

#

wrong use of thou but who cares

bold mortar
#

it was perfect

#

anyways i will not be buying the remake!

buoyant arch
#

if the parameters are not screwing with my damn head, it should look like this in game

#

i can still move it up and down a tad

#

maybe make it smaller if needed too

buoyant arch
#

if it's reload but p4 I probably won't

bold mortar
#

they will change all of it for the worse!

buoyant arch
#

some of the topics in the game were previously seen as "fine", but now it will probably generate a shit ton of backlash

#

i personally don't care

#

I just want the game to be enjoyable and stick to it's basis while adding on it instead of breaking it

bold mortar
#

and ruin it

#

like i said

#

the game is perfect as is

buoyant arch
#

that's my main worry

#

yeah

bold mortar
#

so enjoyable is debatable

#

admittedly I like a lot of P3R

#

but the UE aspects are so bad

#

the bland ui

#

the bland artstyle in general

#

P4 is a handcrafted game with a lot of environmental detail

#

they can't pull that crap here

bold mortar
#

the fact that modding sucks too

buoyant arch
#

my main point of disliking the game was the animations

bold mortar
#

i wouldn't complain so much if it was just on p5's engine

#

because then i could mod it too

buoyant arch
#

they were stuck on the idea of making it "smooth" and forgot there were parts meant to be sharp

#

so there was no impact

bold mortar
#

yeah exactly

#

every modern UE game has this problem

#

it's why I can't play souls likes

#

because the animations don't work

buoyant arch
#

they try too hard dark

#

simple and effective does the trick perfectly

bold mortar
#

so yeah they're going to mutilate my beloved game

buoyant arch
#

hope not

bold mortar
#

they will

buoyant arch
#

they might wake up

#

i know they will

#

let me cope

#

:(

bold mortar
#

if they woke up they would've made it on 5's engine

buoyant arch
#

fair enough

bold mortar
#

ig the only potential upside to a p4 remake is that people would be more inclined to make a femc mod

#

idk i refuse to mod UE games

bold mortar
#

even though i complain the most about p5

bold mortar
buoyant arch
#

we make yua

#

idk

bold mortar
#

idk if it's a mod for the OG game

#

then fine

#

whatever

#

for UE though

#

i don't want to pay $70 for crap

buoyant arch
#

def not a nintendo fan i presume

bold mortar
#

nintendo is an irrelevant question since i just emulate switch games

#

they run better that way

#

even so

#

switch games just kinda suck

jade willow
bold mortar
#

fancy

bold mortar
#

man i hate sae's palace

bold mortar
#

screw it

#

using izanagi is the only way to get through this place fast

buoyant arch
#

the portrait works in-game

#

doesn't look half bad

bold mortar
#

nice

buoyant arch
#

once I rest and do some other things I'll get to making your alt bangs

bold mortar
#

then makoto naosmiley
then gyaru naosmiley

bold mortar
#

no rush for you but if you wanna know my ui priority for alt bangs it's the menu art

buoyant arch
#

oh yeah

#

i have to do those too

bold mortar
#

since it's using the mixed setup rn

bold mortar
#

ofc with the other two those need new art entirely naosmiley

#

take your time though lol

#

i'm not in a rush to make these as complete as possible

buoyant arch
surreal ermine
bold mortar
#

bro wants me to redo every model naosmiley

bold mortar
#

so i can change it

buoyant arch
#

better than that "don't work"

#

-ish

bold mortar
buoyant arch
bold mortar
#

if it means redoing every model then

#

yeah i'm not gonna

buoyant arch
#

yeah fair enough

bold mortar
#

i'm content with what I released so unless there's a glaring issue then yeah i'm not redoing every model a third time

buoyant arch
#

I should get to doing some of them tomorrow

bold mortar
#

i wonder what pose gyasumi should do

buoyant arch
#

should I make another pose for her?

#

I guess it makes sense

#

I was thinking of just doing a recolor, cause I have my plate even fuller than before

#

at least I'm happy with how things may look with the new bases I have

bold mortar
#

i was thinking more along the lines of the recent one you did

#

vs the other one

buoyant arch
#

PT one or the overworld one?

bold mortar
#

no the uhhhh

buoyant arch
#

those two are the most recent ones

bold mortar
buoyant arch
#

unless I did another work and forgot

#

yeah this is the overworld one

bold mortar
#

ah

buoyant arch
#

idk how else to call it

bold mortar
buoyant arch
#

less bad then

#

hope I don't screw it up once I do get to it

bold mortar
#

i'm sure it'll be fine

jade willow
#

I hate when Im trying to pose a model into tpose and its like this weird shoulder thing happens

bold mortar
#

yeah you gotta proportional edit

bold mortar
#

gotta sift through all of them

jade willow
jade willow
#

actually this is quite cute as well

jade willow
#

okay theres another summer uniform variant sad_times

#

Which means we have the Yukari Summer, the white top one, a variant of that (with this sweater vest), the pink cardigan one, and the original yellow one.

jade willow
#

and this I think is a cute winter uniform nodd

vocal kettle
#

Yo, can anyone here hit me up whit the zip for Kasumi over Joker Voice Patch ? Manual download is not working and trying via Reload makes Reload implode.

buoyant arch
#

i just gave up on updating it

#

anytime it pops up on reload booting I just click on the X

jade willow
#

Its the way I dont update any of my mods with reload 😭

granite wren
#

I can't even update my own Reloaded itself because it doesn't recognise I have that .NET framework it wants

jade willow
#

I havent updated anything, but I think bester said it maybe needs windows 11 right?

granite wren
#

Iiiiin that case I think I'm happy with it not updating

jade willow
cunning kelp
jade willow
# cunning kelp this. is. ADORABLE

It really is! I need to ask Croissant Guard if its okay to have a public edit of his outfit before I ask Zylos about including it, assuming they want it as well nodd

cunning kelp
buoyant arch
#

been thinking of adding my portraits as a separate mod to not clutter Zylvos' page and configs with everything

#

with the alt hairs and all that

#

man that's a lot of work

jade willow
bold mortar
#

too bad they don't give me actual choices here

#

again the role playing game lacks substantial role playing options

tidal glacier
bold mortar
#

true

#

what if you wanted to side with the best character in the game

#

but atlus said you have to play their shitty story

#

i quite like having the purse model

#

keeps me from remembering that morgana exists

jade willow
bold mortar
#

nah screw him

#

little shit gets what he deserves

jade willow
#

the undershirt color seems better. I wonder if I should change the stripes off the socks.

#

Or maybe make the vest pink...

bold mortar
#

11/19

#

time to begin the worst arc of the game

bold mortar
#

actually come to think of it

#

the incognito arc is marginally better than the month leading up to it

#

hmm this makes more sense than what actually happened

jade willow
jade willow
#

I cant tell if I like it more fluffy or more thin

errant zenith
buoyant arch
buoyant arch
#

the fluffy one might bring many issues later down the line with clipping and animations

#

I guess this is an atlus game though, so I don't know what to expect

bold mortar
#

Atlus try to make the models easy to work with challenge (impossible)

bold mortar
#

I wonder if the arrest at the beginning of the game could be modded out...

#

Maybe not

jade willow
#

I think the thinner one does look better tho

jade willow
bold mortar
#

I despise that part so much

#

If I could remove both arrests from the game, I would.

jade willow
#

The fliphone has such potential 😭

#

Is this too dark of a blue??

#

I feel like it almost eats the light up in a room

buoyant arch
#

it's too saturated imo

#

it really catches the attention

jade willow
#

Okay I guess I should try a duller blue?

buoyant arch
#

that can work

#

idk if you have a slider for saturation or not, but toning it down a notch might help

#

unless you are looking to make it as eye-catching as possible

jade willow
#

oh well it is at 100

granite wren
#

Maybe look at the Velvet Outfits? as it definitely seems a lot more saturated than those currently

jade willow
#

Maybe it will look better in game, the other version didnt look so intense in gfd

granite wren
#

Yeah P5 lighting definitely does something wacky

jade willow
#

yeah that seems a lot less jarring

granite wren
#

This reminds me of like
You know going to the paint store

#

and picking out shades

#

and it always looks different when you get home yukiLaugh

#

but yeah that looks a lot nicer

jade willow
#

I hate colors bun_cry

buoyant arch
jade willow
#

It reminds me of being in hs and having to do the color wheel thing and realizing I have 0 artistic eye

granite wren
buoyant arch
#

i should probably set every monitor of mine to the same saturation to not get this

#

but I'm too lazy

#

or I just don't care enough

#

cause it still looks fine, I guess

granite wren
buoyant arch
#

you can maybe follow a pattern

#

no guarantees

#

also, depends on where in-game you are I think

#

but eh

jade willow
#

What depends on where you are in game?

granite wren
#

Lighting

buoyant arch
#

yeah

granite wren
#

like, the attic lighting is gonna differ from say, the Odaiba palace

jade willow
#

oof yeah

buoyant arch
#

I'd probably aim for something that looks nice on GFD, as everything else can be a factor to our liking in game

#

the previous example you posted looked really good

#

both in GFD and in leblanc

granite wren
#

I've seen a few outfits IRL with that sort of navy and they are nice

jade willow
jade willow
buoyant arch
#

well, shouldn't be too worried

#

everything you did thus far had good harmony

jade willow
buoyant arch
#

that's talent

jade willow
#

Please tell me if there is a better method pray

buoyant arch
#

you could search for reference in regards to color combinations

granite wren
#

And Atlus picked a lot of shades themselves, steal reference their textures

buoyant arch
#

again, what you've been doing so far looks really solid

granite wren
#

^

bold mortar
granite wren
#

Also perfect is the enemy of good
You might miss something nice trying for a perfect vision that isn't there

jade willow
#

I guess I could look up something for this outfit. It seems a little fancy.

#

Although Im not sure how I'd steal a color from another texture in game...

granite wren
#

What are you using to edit the textures? My thought was you could load one up side by side and colour pick Atlus-used shades

buoyant arch
granite wren
#

They call it "navy" blue for a reason after all, was used by the British Navy

jade willow
#

Maybe I shouldnt go for a blue then...

#

I guess Ill play with the colors

buoyant arch
#

again, it depends on what you want with the outfit

bold mortar
#

I wonder if I should update Gyasumi today to include my new phone textures

jade willow
#

Well its supposed to be the winter casual. The original color was black but I felt that was too dark for Kasumi. But then again I dont want to be too light cause its winter femc

buoyant arch
granite wren
# jade willow Photopea

Does it let you have two projects open? So you could pick from one texture and bring that colour over to the other

buoyant arch
#

idk how to explain this

jade willow
buoyant arch
jade willow
granite wren
buoyant arch
buoyant arch
#

pink being one of the colors for that

#

but soft pink

#

wouldn't want to be blinded by some shock pink

#

unless that is what you want

bold mortar
#

I don't remember if I went for shock pink for any of my gyasumi models

buoyant arch
#

im not a fan of the gyaru style, nor do I know much of it

#

but if they are trying to get attention, that will most definetly work

bold mortar
#

If I wanted full gyaru, then it would've looked more like fuuka's friend

granite wren
#

Bold accents are best saved for eye-catching accessories really

Ftr I don't think any shock pink was used

bold mortar
jade willow
#

this is kinda cute

bold mortar
#

Like even the makeup was very scaled back

#

Yeah that works

buoyant arch
granite wren
#

Oooh nice

jade willow
#

whew and then I can change the bow to be black

#

thank you guys! HAPPY

buoyant arch
#

happy to help

bold mortar
#

And tbh more work than I'd be willing to put in

buoyant arch
#

but I see what you mean

bold mortar
buoyant arch
#

this is from what I saw at least

granite wren
#

I dunno though I like what we have

bold mortar
#

Since I didn't want to be repulsed by my own creation

buoyant arch
#

i sort of glazed over the entire concept

jade willow
#

Okay so dress color fixed and the clipping should be fixed too CH_HyperYay

buoyant arch
#

so I cant' really say as if I'm a mastermind of the gyaru

jade willow
#

I dont relly like Gyaru either but the mod is very cute

buoyant arch
jade willow
#

I think when I imagine Gyaru though I think of those huge eyes, white eyeliner, very unnatural tan and bright blonde hair.

granite wren
#

And not all take it to extremes
See like, Ai Miyashita from Love Live

There's room for interpretation

jade willow
bold mortar
#

Yeah

#

That ig ended up being more of the guiding idea

granite wren
#

The creators

bold mortar
#

In hindsight though I think I should've ditched the tan

granite wren
#

There's definitely some leeway

bold mortar
granite wren
#

Damn the tan was my favourite part though yukiLaugh

Different without being garish

bold mortar
#

ig

jade willow
#

The good thing about th tan was it didnt look odd

#

It passes for Kasumi's natural skin tone so I didnt mind it

granite wren
bold mortar
#

idk the comments on the mod about how the face and body don't quite match get on my nerves ig

#

Like ok bro you make the mod then

jade willow
#

Lol

#

People will want more anyways, I think you made a lot of people happy

#

Besides who likes people who complain?

granite wren
#

Especially me Femc_Little
She's so girlypop

jade willow
#

Yesss! I love Gyaru sumi. Honestly the pink workout jacket was such a great idea.

#

Feeling very spoiled over here 💯

bold mortar
#

Which one

jade willow
granite wren
#

Tomoko

bold mortar
#

Ah

jade willow
#

Also the midwinter jacket

bold mortar
#

I don't use that one

jade willow
#

It feels like her colors went from red to pink in the best way

#

this one too is sooo good
