@cold dagger
hello, I have a question. nothing really relating to this pack, more so I want to add something to it.

there is another spartan body type I would like to add to the pack, not for re-posting but for personal use for a character I want to make. its the "reach accurate female body" available in this server.

what im trying to figure out is how to I integrate the custom body into the section with the other body types?

the author of the "reach accurate mkvB" rigged the model but did not offer other armors to customize the model with, which makes character creation a bit of a headache to figure out. so thought i would ask the guy who made the legendary spartan pack for answers

[deft void]

You gotta add it yourself my guy

weight the pieces to whatever rig youre using

[signal torrent]

yeah im fine with adding it myself

just trying to figure out how to do it

thats what i was asking

[deft void]

take the pieces you want from this pack and copy/ paste them into the blend with the female body

once thats does parent them to the "female body" rig with empty groups then weight it from there

running into issues trying to load the textures

im running a rtx 4070 super, with a ryzen 9, and 32 gb of ram.

followed to correct steps to import the textures, file, external data, find missing files then selected the right folder containing all the correct info

got it to work

Hi all, I’m planning to work on a Spartan Pack 6.0 soon. Any feedback would be appreciated

Plans:

• Migrate all armour to HIMS 3.0
• Remove needless UV maps from meshes.
• Add MK VI GEN I
• Add new MK V[B] and MK VII pieces

[deft void]

careful of mesh normals, they can fuck up when you swap to 3.0

[cold dagger]

I’ll keep an eye out. Saw the same when it went from 2.7 to either 2.8 or 2.9

[onyx veldt]

That’s not a mesh normal issue

It’s how Olympus ripped the normal maps

Add this to it if youre down, I did it myself already but only for an individual model. But having it readily available for others would be awesome

[onyx veldt]

I disagree, there’s already going to be a ton of clutter and that would only make it worse

[feral nymph]

too many cooks

[signal torrent]

Adding one thing? Really?

The more customization options the better.

In animation we should have as many creative possibilities as possible to make the world we wish to create. If you don't like it, use an older version simple.

[onyx veldt]

The editing for the chest in that upload requires editing every chest and hip attachment to accommodate the edited proportions

[signal torrent]

If you want to use it universally, but if you do it for only the reach model np. It's not even your pack, so what's the complaining?

Plus no chest editing required, it's only the obdomen

[onyx veldt]

No the reach attachments also need to be edited

[signal torrent]

I already did it myself

Not that hard

[onyx veldt]

Plus the file is already gone be obnoxiously large

Every extra mesh in there duplicate or not is extra space

[signal torrent]

So?

[onyx veldt]

Extra space for a asset that has no reason to be in the pack

Redundant meshes for redundancy’s sake makes no sense

Having a slightly larger ass isn’t animation necessary

[signal torrent]

Just seems like you don't have an issue with other things being added except THAT mesh.

Look man, the actual author was asking for suggestions. And I offered mine. If you don't like it, you're entitled to that opinion. Just as I'm entitled to my opinion. Dosnt mean he'll do it.

I already know how to set it up, and I was offering my criticism to make life easier for people who want to use the mesh. And if it DOSE get added, and if you don't like it, don't use it. Simple.

[signal torrent]

Also it ain't redundant if it's different. Redundant would mean repetitive.

[onyx veldt]

It’s effectively the same as the infinite body type 3

Very minor differences other than the widened codpiece and slightly wider hips

[deft void]

Bro, creative possibilities, It's a spartan ass and hips lmfao, I dont see that as a necessary thing for creativity,

serious note, the only issue I see is the shader itself, This spartan pack has a shitton of duplicates shaders and that adds up because they arent swapped and new things keep getting added, which causes issues and time increases loading those textures even in Evee, which leads to lag, cpu bottlenecking, and crashing. Your female spartan has 3 materials, from what Ive seen arent on the same shader, this pack has more than 100, more is great, but its like Chunch said, a duplicated mesh with proportional edits

TLDR, It does have an impact opinionated or not and that adds up with this pack, unless its optimized, but that in itself is a lot of work and requires a lot more time to do

You must be great at parties

[deft void]

says the dick

literally explained why its bad and thats your reaction, crazy

[signal torrent]

Excuse me?

[deft void]

youre excused

[signal torrent]

1. Didn't go around calling anyone names

[deft void]

never said you did but nice

[signal torrent]

2. Don't need to be rude about it

[signal torrent]

^

[deft void]

1. you just were

2. thats your response, to undermine instead of taking whats there

3. if you act like a dick, which is what that was, im going to call you a dick

[signal torrent]

How?

I mean you're right, my computer exploded... I'm gonna go home and rethink my life.

[deft void]

how?

Because I told you why that could be bad, even summarized that for you and instead of an okay, or a fair reply, or a ah, or a gotcha, you decided "you must be great at parties" like a sarcastic asshole

[signal torrent]

Well, tbf, your first sentence came off pretty rude. Within your wall of text.

And considering how large the pack is already I really didn't see it as an issue

[sonic mirage]

Ahem

I think this has reached the point where you should take this to DMs or drop the topic

[signal torrent]

I agree honestly cluttering up the forum worse then the pack itself.

[sonic mirage]

good, then drop it or I will set the on both of you

[haughty prairie]

maybe if possible then body types for the Fracture cores?

At least for Yoroi it'd be quite cool

[indigo fractal]

The sculpt tool is your friend

[cold dagger]

EKUR compatible MK V[B] and additions core coming soon

[oblique magnet]

So, How do I get the textures to look like this (First screenshot) and not like this (Second Screenshot)

In unity

[cold dagger]

I think the new EKUR tool allows for the baking of textures so they can be used in other applications

[feral nymph]

you need to bake out the textures

[oblique magnet]

any guide I follow loses me because I just cant do what the videos show or My blender is set up different and I cant replicate it. What do I do
