[median solstice]

i use Amd Fluid motion

[grand gyro]

if that works good for you

[median solstice]

yeah it works

its like uhh

Fsr 3.5 frame gen for rtx

the same thing

[grand gyro]

most of the time it only generates "fake" frames which doesn't affect the main thread

so you're not getting any dps advantage

[median solstice]

but i see that my modernia deals more dmg, is it placebo or is it doing something

tested it like 6 times

Modernia deals at least 3 mil more

[grand gyro]

idk I'm not shiftup dev

they fucked up something bad

[median solstice]

they cant ban me if its AMD driver

shouldnt*

[grand gyro]

yea

they can tho

their anti cheat checks battle logs

[median solstice]

But that mean they blacklisted an entire AMD Rx 6000 and 7000 series + Rtx 40 series

[grand gyro]

pretty minimally and roughly tho

like

they calculate your expected dps and total damage

some shit like that

and see if they match up in the result

[median solstice]

[grand gyro]

they also check your clear time with other users

[median solstice]

ya

ik but like

STILL

[grand gyro]

if you get like "sync failure"

that means you're flagged

[median solstice]

it's amd exclusives

Nvidia has it too

they cant ban entire graphics card company

[grand gyro]

or they can

simply fix this fps glitch

[median solstice]

Frame gen isnt able to be fix since it's not a glitch

[grand gyro]

no I mean

[median solstice]

only if they put it on Vulkan

[grand gyro]

the whole game being tied to the framerate

[median solstice]

it's unity atm

[median solstice]

ah ya

true

[grand gyro]

they said they're gonna fix it on jan

it's been 11 months

and they still have zero clue on why it's happening

cuz they fired all senior devs

[median solstice]

why they do dat

[grand gyro]

I would do that too if I were a ceo

[median solstice]

what happened

is there somethin im missin out

[grand gyro]

I mean that's a common thing in game dev

you launch the game and fire the senior devs

[median solstice]

[grand gyro]

cuz you need to pay them well

[median solstice]

wth

[grand gyro]

unnecessary cost

[median solstice]

but isnt like

senior = more professional?

[grand gyro]

yeah that's true

senior = more professional = higher cost

why do you need senior devs after you launch the game

you only need some cheap script kids to fill in the data

so they get fired after they implement all essential features that are needed to launch the game

life cycle of most game programmers are < 2 years

you move to other companies after that

that's why sequels are garbage, almost always

[median solstice]

cus when shits happened theres when a professional is used

like data breach or sum

also from what i see

most unity game

[grand gyro]

hey they haven't updated the encryption method used for staticdata.pack for 12 months

[median solstice]

is used 60

[median solstice]

what is that

[grand gyro]

NKAB, only gets updated when there's a collab

I guess they are outsourced

[grand gyro]

the most essential data in this game

dialogues, events, stage info, monster stats, character stats

everything is in there

Even in their developer interviews you can't find system programmers

Only server programmers because they are essential for the live service game

Kek

[small yoke]

so I need to swap some existent MLB Nikkes burst lobby I got for the one I want?

[grand gyro]

Yeah, swap with SRs

[crude grove]

There is also Modernia's skin's burst wallpaper

[small yoke]

being a Modernialess player I did not know that

[vague garden]

Agree on the schoolgirl point.

[small yoke]

@polar wing @mellow marsh how you do skin swap when the original file is like this?

default skin is c090_aim_00 (skel, atlas and texture) so when I try to do skin swap with the files from the skin the result is broken

[pine estuary]

simple, dont sưap

c090_01, emma xmas skin

[small yoke]

But I wanted to swap default Emma for that one

Why they had to make c090_aim_00.skel for xmas Emma and for default Emma?

[small yoke]

I would need Spine to modify c090_aim_00.skel to c090_aim_01.skel and to make it works right?

@wicked pivot how xmas Emma aim is working from your website?

When I upload the original files from my eb folder the textures break even when they are the original files

[small yoke]

Nvm guys, actually the skin swap works just fine with the traditional swap method renaming only atlas and the png
But the files can't be opened properly from SkeletonViewer/SpineViewerWPF/Live2DVisualiser, only from the game itself

Xmas Emma default skin swap done

[woeful plinth]

Yeah coz the texture is smaller than the resolution specified in the atlas

The game upscales it

If u wanna view it externally then resize the texture to 2048×2048

[small yoke]

lol true, I just checked and the original aim texture is at 1024x1024

https://tenor.com/view/learn-something-new-everyday-pete-davidson-saturday-night-live-didnt-know-that-huh-gif-25916123

[woeful plinth]

Heh 1 yr of experience

Hire me shitup

[small yoke]

[wicked pivot]

yes what he said

this explains why my assets before PC launch looks blurry in aim and cover

I upscaled them myself but I used some shitty tool that was fast and free

I need to reupload everything in full hd but it'll be so boring

[small yoke]

it's ok, the tool works just fine for most recent skins anyways so that's what matters

This xmas Emma skin was a specific case

[tall umbra]

Hi. does anyone has this file but not as a skin swap?

[polar wing]

no cause i only did skin swap

for that

[mellow flare]

oraclealice

[polar wing]

oraclealice still has the skirt

on that one i removed the skirt and drew over the leg

[tall umbra]

What happens if I just rename the file?

To the name of the skin

[polar wing]

it'll break the character

if you havent tried it yet

[crimson sapphire]

So is there no way to change normal UI to NieR UI?

[opaque acorn]

When this skin ?

[worthy granite]

is there a mod to turn off this flicker that happens while shooting?

[woeful plinth]

Nope

Thats basically if u aim too much to the left or right

At the end of the day, these models are all 2d

Theyre just designed in a way that gives u the impression of being 3d

damn getting middle fingered

[rain oriole]

[mellow marsh]

shifty has become sentient

[rain oriole]

wait what

[manic halo]

so with spine tools can you make custom animation modules?

Is there a reason to use spine pro anymore for modding?

[naive blade]

can u tell me the path of where to find this

[polar wing]

i think thats just a spine viewer with extra shit

[polar wing]

@lament ruin is this real

[woeful plinth]

Ive coded her to react with a middle fingie if someone keeps asking the same thing 3 or more times

To reduce spam

But she didnt have react perms apparently and that was making her crash

Which would mean I had to keep checking regularly and restarting her if she did crash

[rain oriole]

interesting

@polar wing do u know how I could modify the sprite files to avoid that cut the game does to fit the image to the portrait?

[polar wing]

no

cause ive never made portrait mods

[polar wing]

did you try doing the portrait swap then editing that

or did you replace viper's directly

[small yoke]

I tried to edit the sprite data from the default Viper with the original skin version but I just break the sprite file instead

[polar wing]

edit this

[small yoke]

@polar wing it's working now, arigato

how you did it tho? 🤔

[polar wing]

i think viper just has a lower border than her skin

cause her original doesnt have bunny ears

actually idk

[small yoke]

yeah that's is why I tried to modify the sprite data

[polar wing]

i just took it from dci server

[small yoke]

but I was breaking the file instead

[small yoke]

how they do it? I want to do the same for other border limited portraits

[polar wing]

uh

regular swap?

do you swap both sprite and texture2d or only one

its probably not border cause the one i sent works

[small yoke]

I mean to avoid the cut on the texture swap

because I do it the same way than skin swap but the result is the file crop the image to fit the size in the sprite data I think

[polar wing]

idk

[small yoke]

nope, I can't figure how their edit is working

[polar wing]

@severe mountain

[severe mountain]

1. Open the original sprite bundle using UABEA (on kxdew case the original file for the bunny viper skin)

2. Click on the sprite asset then hit 'Edit Data'

3. Copy everything (Just alt+a + alt+c)

4. Paste it in notepad or anywhere you want

5. Now close the existing windows then open the sprite bundle you want to modify in UABEA

6. Same as step 2, view the data of the sprite
   *refer to the image

7. On the opened 'Edit Data' window copy the highlighted texts and replace the highlighted texts to the one you saved earlier(saved in notepad)

8. Copy everything (notepad) then paste it to the 'Edit Data' windows then press Ok

9. Change image if you havent done so then repack as normal

[polar wing]

@small yoke

[severe mountain]

only works for swaps skins tho. You can modify the border radius yourself too but its a bit tedious since you also need to modify the dimension of the images and shits

[sick iron]

The file path? It's on the same unity folder as nikke skillcut animations

...\AppData\LocalLow\Unity

if you're planning on getting anything from it though you'd need a different fork of asset studio with an updated texture2d decoder

[small yoke]

once again arigato for the help! it works perfectly now

@severe mountain the lines to be copied/replaced in the sprite data are always the same ones?

Time to test it for other portraits like Scarlet one with her huge hat

[severe mountain]

Ye

[small yoke]

https://tenor.com/view/noice-nice-click-gif-8843762

[lament ruin]

yeah, spine pro is unfortunately still crusial if you want to modify animations and geometry. The main purpose of my app is to have to solution to convert the textures to standart alpha, so you can work with any graphic tool you like, and update modified textures with a single click. So basicly it helps if you don't have a spine pro.
The big disadvantage is it will only work for spine 4.1 models... I figured getting multiple spine runtimes in one Unity build is a major task, not to mention the runitmes have to be modified greatly to allow import from raw assets at runtime.

[wicked pivot]

is it that big of a deal

there isn't any 4.0 asset released anymore afaik

at least I haven't encountered one in a long time

[lament ruin]

dunno, I don't have time to start checking latest files, but all old mods certainly are still 4.0.

[opaque acorn]

When normal version of Viper Bunny skin ?

[lament ruin]

Hello everyone! Is this possible to unpack nikke gamefiles? That's only just for my own purposes i won't share extracted files. I saw nikkeTools but it was DMCAd
i wanna get skins, l2ds and ost, if it's possible

[polar wing]

check pins

[lament ruin]

oh, thanks a lot

Viper skin swap (normal) for PC

[opaque acorn]

THX so much

[small yoke]

https://tenor.com/view/my-job-here-is-done-bye-done-gif-14879937

[opaque acorn]

Lmao

[warped mulch]

this ever get repacked to work in current game? i tried couldn't get it working

[void mason]

How does nikke encapsulate the unpacked files?

[small yoke]

u mean how to re-encrypt modified nikke files so the game can read them?

[void mason]

Yeah，Can you give me a hand?

[ashen wolf]

hey, so the privaty non swap less exposed variant 1 just doesn't work

there is no files to replace and as soon you boot up the game the files vanish from the eb folder

[polar wing]

the mod is old

or you picked the wrong platform

[polar wing]

#1041207949508497548 message

download uabea here

[void mason]

https://tenor.com/view/noice-nice-click-gif-8843762

[small yoke]

well, the file .bundle can't be re-encrypted directly I think (I never tried it like that)
I use UABEA to edit the .bundle, then:

1. "save as" the modified file with any name, I use xxxx_MOD
2. close the file from UABEA and re-open it again
3. "compress" the file you opened with the compression option "LZ4" and save it with a different name (example xxxx_comp_MOD)
4. drag that conpressed file and drop it on NikkeAssetUnpacker.exe (NAU because NikkeTools is older)

and the final file must have "enc" in its name if the process was correct (example: xxxx_comp_MOD_enc.bundle)
The last step is to rename that file like the original one, removing ".bundle" extension making the file without extension like nikke original files

[small yoke]

Maiden the headless

really difficult to make the lower part of her hair transparent without mess up the whole hair

[polar wing]

kinda goofy

there’s not much behind her hair anyways

you could probably do a gradual fade ish transparent by using little hardness and a huge ass brush size

[small yoke]

https://tenor.com/view/ill-take-it-gif-11482798

[polar wing]

erase then draw over with black

on another layer ofc

[small yoke]

well the mod is for myself anyways

I was Maiden main before so I must to do it

but maybe I'll post Maiden portrait swaps later

[polar wing]

someone already made them in dci 🗿

every single skin swap is in there

[small yoke]

I mean to do something like what I did for S.Helm expressions for portrait

[polar wing]

oh

[small yoke]

like this

[void mason]

Alright, thanks

[small yoke]

Noise modded default skin by VolumeSimp repacked for PC

I just repacked it because I liked the standing mod

[woeful plinth]

Do credit me kiddo

[crude grove]

TBH it's not mentioned in the message replied to

[small yoke]

I just made the repack but no idea who made it because the message, sorry

[woeful plinth]

Oof

Yeah i grabbed those nips from a doujin and did the best I could

[small yoke]

I was trying to blend the boobs colors a bit but PS and its white borders strikes again

[woeful plinth]

[small yoke]

[woeful plinth]

Embrace paint.net

[small yoke]

https://tenor.com/view/angry-admin-redditor-gif-19194853

[woeful plinth]

I made the whole noise mod on that

[small yoke]

welp, paint.net will be

[woeful plinth]

Layers and shit

Its not bad at all

Clone stamp helps when u suck at shading

[small yoke]

so far I can switch between PS and paint.net just fine but to remove the white edges manually is pain

[opaque acorn]

someone have the noise skin for pc pls ?

[ancient schooner]

Anyone have any suggestions for what spineviewer to use?

trying to start learning how to mod

[small yoke]

This website: https://nikke-db.pages.dev/visualiser or the ones below

[ancient schooner]

Okay now uh

I know there's a download somewhere here with each characters file

[small yoke]

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1U8CaJtqh32czTw-TKozB1TAemWuLzxaE9YAdK38v6as/edit#gid=596392627

[ancient schooner]

not the file names

[small yoke]

oh, you mean the eb folder?

[ancient schooner]

yeah to put it into skeleton viewer

would this be it?

[small yoke]

I don't have idea what is that tbh, I use the files in my own eb folder

[opaque acorn]

thx so much !

[small yoke]

to know the version you need to open the ".skel" file with some text editor like notepad++

[ancient schooner]

problem

there is no 4.0.47

[small yoke]

use 4.0.6x

[ancient schooner]

4.0.64

[small yoke]

yup

[ancient schooner]

kk

how do I zoom out?

the viewscale

hell

[small yoke]

Ctrl+mouse wheel

Ctrl+click to move the view

[ancient schooner]

ahh ty

well uh

[small yoke]

Alt+click on the body to move it separately

Alt+mouse wheel to make it smaller or bigger

[ancient schooner]

hm why tf this so

what's the word

just odd

[small yoke]

matter to get used to it

[ancient schooner]

crashed when I clicked "use BG"

[small yoke]

if u want to see the preview only the option you need to modify is this one only

[polar wing]

why dont you just use nikke db’s live2d visualizer

no download required

[small yoke]

probably old mod

older mods don't work there, or most of them

[ancient schooner]

eh experimenting with stuff

[small yoke]

[ancient schooner]

[ancient schooner]

ver 5.0.12

[polar wing]

just download latest

[ancient schooner]

epic now we painting : D

[polar wing]

if not for my lack of artistic talent i wouldve made pantyless mast

photoshopping shit onto other shit is so much easier

[ancient schooner]

trying to

change hair color without it looking like a crayon

[polar wing]

use hue tool

[small yoke]

https://tenor.com/view/i-know-the-feel-i-know-that-feel-bruh-i-hear-you-i-feel-you-gif-14015745

[ancient schooner]

hue... hue... hmm

[polar wing]

use magic wand tool to select a part

then hue tool to draw over the part

[ancient schooner]

Magic wand doesn't let me select in bulk

[polar wing]

like multiple parts

[ancient schooner]

ye

[polar wing]

?

hold ctrl

i think

[small yoke]

on "Selection mode" select "Add union"

Lasso is what I use

for that

[ancient schooner]

Great! now where s add union

[small yoke]

[small yoke]

it's for Lasso tool

[polar wing]

what just hold ctrl

[ancient schooner]

oh

[small yoke]

wait actually magic wand got the option too lol

[polar wing]

you dont need add union

[ancient schooner]

holding ctrl it just keeps on making little areas not being consistant

[polar wing]

drag the wand around for a while until it selects the entire thing

magic wand kinda shit tbh

maybe just lasso it

[small yoke]

I think you need to play with "Tolerance" level too

[polar wing]

oh shit it has a tolerance level

damn

[ancient schooner]

OH

OH

Yeah

that was the damn issue

[small yoke]

[ancient schooner]

k now it's all selected

now, where's the next tool

[polar wing]

wait texture modding genshin gonna be easier now

where tolerance

[polar wing]

dayum

[ancient schooner]

actually gimme a sec to find rgb

[polar wing]

the colors?

top right

little rainbow circle

[ancient schooner]

had to find a specific hex

[polar wing]

if its on the texture there’s a color picker tool

copies the hex of whatever you click on

[ancient schooner]

k got the color I needed

where's the hue tool

[polar wing]

press b

[ancient schooner]

hmm

I'm only able to color a small bit of it

k finished

@small yoke How do I attach the new png

[small yoke]

you can save the png with the same name and overwrite the original, or move the original to another folder and name the new one with the same name and put it together with the .skel and .atlas files

to see the changes in SpineViewerWPF I think you need to close and re-open the program and load everything over again

[ancient schooner]

hm it worked

now what if I wanted to add it to the game?

isn't there some sort of long process

[small yoke]

to do it you need to follow a few steps with other programs: UABEA, NAU and AssetStudio

[ancient schooner]

I have UABEA

opened rn

hmmm do I need to get the eb file onto UABEA

[small yoke]

the ".bundle" file

you get the bundle after to drop the original file onto NikkeAssetUnpacker.exe

here NAU: https://bunkrr.su/d/goY9b5bGcwM37 (NikkeAssetUnpacker)

[ancient schooner]

k got NAU opened

do I put the eb I want onto the NAU?

[small yoke]

yeah, 1 file at the time is how I was doing it

[ancient schooner]

pressed enter

it closes

nothing happens

[small yoke]

don't open NAU

[crude grove]

Drag the file into NAU

[ancient schooner]

powershell?

[crude grove]

You don't need to do anything

[ancient schooner]

well I did drag and drop the individual file

[crude grove]

Just drag the bundle into the exe

[small yoke]

👆

drag the file into the exe like when you drag and drop something into a folder

[ancient schooner]

yeah I have that rn

[small yoke]

not need to open NAU

[ancient schooner]

oh fuck

Like literally drag it onto the thing

damn

[small yoke]

I think the most recent NAU version can works with a whole folder and stuff but I'm still using an older version because I'm used to the manual process already

[ancient schooner]

k got the bundle

now to UABEA

So I put the bundle into the UABEA

and it gives me file or memory

[wicked pivot]

what's the issue with old mods on nikke db

@ancient schoonerif you make mods by using nikke-db assets I'd like you to credit the website, I don't care if you do your own digging in eb

[ancient schooner]

now I'm here

[ancient schooner]

I'm simply just learning, I'll never actually make public mods

I just got random motivation to do one for shits n giggles

after seeing this meme

but yeah, ty for the nikke-db

it's really helpful

[wicked pivot]

basic mod is just drawing over the .png file . if you want something a lot more complex with new animations and stuff you'll need to pay for spine afaik there isn't a cracked 4.1 version

[ancient schooner]

my main goal is to redraw delta

I'm first testing with a simple hair color swap

[wicked pivot]

welp good luck with WPF, can't help you with it

[ancient schooner]

ty, I'll try my best to learn on it

[small yoke]

I mean for specific cases like the old xmas Emma from the other day, not a website problem... the mods are too old

[wicked pivot]

hmm

[ancient schooner]

how can I change the texture here to be the one I just made?

[wicked pivot]

I'm confident they still use 1024x files for android tho so the mod isn't "old"

[small yoke]

[polar wing]

wait you can take assets from nikke db?

how

[polar wing]

plugins, edit texture, load

[ancient schooner]

🙏

[wicked pivot]

all my static files are uploaded to a public repository so yeah you can grab every spine and png I use. though I do a lot of manual renaming ( especially skins, story , cutscenes, etc ) so I'm not sure if they will work if you try to mod and repack it in game

https://github.com/Nikke-db/Nikke-db.github.io

[small yoke]

I know that web today as well thanks to this chat

[wicked pivot]

honestly if you just want to test recoloring you don't need uabe if you already have the files

it's an extraction tool so once you've got the three needed files on your pc you're good to mod

edit your png, load it into a software and leave uabe for later

[ancient schooner]

once I get the png edited from paint where would I load it into

to avoid the whole uabea steps

[wicked pivot]

reload it into WFS or my website (#ad)

[ancient schooner]

well it shows nothing

[polar wing]

did you drag the saved bundle onto uabea again

compressed using lz4

[ancient schooner]

uabea with new texture -> NAU - > file

[polar wing]

uabea with new texture -> uabea with new bundle

click file then compress

or ctrl m

[ancient schooner]

hmmm

[polar wing]

#1041208182539825182 message

ignore the atlas and skel since you’re only doing texture

[ancient schooner]

ight now the UABEA is acting up

I drop the bundle after I save it

and it only opens it

yeah it only opens the asset info

and not the file stuff for the bundle

[polar wing]

i dont think its uabea

[ancient schooner]

strange

I redid the steps

ep -> NAU -> UABEA -> w/texture change.bundle - > UABEA

but for anything I put into UABEA it keeps on saying no file open

even after I redownloaded it

[polar wing]

ok so after you edited the bundle on uabea

you saved on both windows

then you drag the bundle back onto uabea?

[ancient schooner]

drag bundle onto UABEA = that

it doesn't even bother asking if I want to open it

it goes straight to asset info

[polar wing]

oh what the hell

[ancient schooner]

lemme try checking for windows update

driver update, then reset the PC

[polar wing]

yk what just encrypt with nikketools

[ancient schooner]

great! where's that at

[polar wing]

#1041207949508497548 message

[ancient schooner]

since the old link I know of got DMCA

oh nice

[polar wing]

dmca but that doesnt mean its completely removed from the internet

[ancient schooner]

so uh

how does nikke tools work?

oh brother, every time I try to open nikketools it instantly closes

[polar wing]

replace .bundle with _MOD

put it in a folder

drag that folder onto nikketools

you'll get MOD_ENC if it works

works similar to nau

[ancient schooner]

like this right?

[polar wing]

yeah

[ancient schooner]

great it's also constantly closing

lemme check if PC needs to update

oh yup

[polar wing]

doesnt work when you drag folder onto nikketools?

i dont think its a pc update thing

[ancient schooner]

antivirus update, intelligence update, other update

yeah it might be because of the update

[polar wing]

damn

do you have net 4.7.2 installed

cause nikketools needs that

[ancient schooner]

yes I'm able to run NAU perfectly

so it's 100% not that

and I tried downloading net earlier but it said I have it already installed

[polar wing]

idk i ran nau perfectly but not nikketools

cause i had to install 4.7.2

[polar wing]

oh

does it say this when you click on it

and then close

[ancient schooner]

nope not even open a slight bit

I just see a tab about to open on my hotbar b

for 1 milisecond

then it disappears

[polar wing]

damn

[ancient schooner]

think anything in here might be needing to be changed

[polar wing]

no

damn just send me the bundle and ill compress it

maybe see if there's anythign wrong with the bundle or your uabea

[polar wing]

yo what the

i think its the bundle

[crude grove]

Not again 😔

[ancient schooner]

ight lets retrace

[ancient schooner]

wym not again?

[crude grove]

Not you

[ancient schooner]

thank god 🙏

[polar wing]

what

[ancient schooner]

okay

step 1

da eb file

into NAU to get the decompressed version

UABEA then I add the texture

then I save

[polar wing]

on both windows?

[ancient schooner]

I still can't see it on the UABEA window

it still shows as no file

wait

[polar wing]

do you save on both assets window and uabea

[ancient schooner]

is it supposed to take a couple of seconds to load the png file

[polar wing]

yeah

for older characters

[small yoke]

if your UABEA freezes loading the png just wait until it finish to load

[ancient schooner]

I load the bundle again and it still shows this

I'm gonna restart my PC and see if it fixes

cause it was working fine earlier

[small yoke]

on that window (if you already loaded and saved the png previously) you need to select "File>save" and then close that window

[ancient schooner]

yeah so I do close it

after saving

nothing happens

to the main windo

w

even if I try to click compress or do ctrl+m

lemme restart rn brb

[small yoke]

why your file is not showing in main UABEA window tho?

[ancient schooner]

j bacj

that's the funny part I'm trying to figure out

[polar wing]

ok so first you saved on asset info window

closed it

and then saved on uabea window right

[small yoke]

wait the file is not showing on main UABEA window

[ancient schooner]

nope

not showing on the main window

[polar wing]

send me the texture png

🗿

[ancient schooner]

😭

here

[ancient schooner]

The weirdest part is, it was working 100% fine earlier

[small yoke]

do u open the bundle file dragging it to UABEA or from UABEA menu file>open?

[polar wing]

wait did you click compres to file or memory

[ancient schooner]

Both

It don't let me click anything

it just straight opens to asset

[polar wing]

no when you first opened it

[ancient schooner]

When I first opened I clicked memory

[polar wing]

oh it was like that at the start?

[ancient schooner]

like in the video

[polar wing]

oh

[ancient schooner]

But that shouldn't have mattered

[small yoke]

oh lol, I forgot the "memory" step as well

[polar wing]

here

[ancient schooner]

since after I noticed the bug, I reinstalled UABEA and it still persisted

[polar wing]

you fucked up the bundle somehow

[ancient schooner]

I fucked up UABEA somehow

[polar wing]

no that happened on my uabea too

[small yoke]

[ancient schooner]

how tf you fix it

[polar wing]

i just redid it

using my own delta file from eb

[small yoke]

That is why I use an older UABEA

[ancient schooner]

k now time to see if mod work

praying it don't crash gmae

[polar wing]

wait what

which uabea

[polar wing]

game dont crash cause of this

maybe softlock

[small yoke]

if gjopin did the edition the file works for sure now

[ancient schooner]

uh...

[polar wing]

what

[ancient schooner]

biblically accurate delta

[polar wing]

bro

you took the png from koshirei didnt you

[ancient schooner]

fear not

[polar wing]

great

outdated png

[small yoke]

[ancient schooner]

🔥

[small yoke]

don't worry tho
it can be fixed easy

just editing with updated png

[polar wing]

give me the atlas and skel of the place you got the png from 🔫

[small yoke]

oh and that ☝️

[polar wing]

fuck i just got mihara from gold mold

[ancient schooner]

they seem pretty up to date

[polar wing]

well apparently they arent

[small yoke]

average mold experience

[polar wing]

koshirei did say he edits the stuff himself

like rename

[polar wing]

isnt that the latest oen

[small yoke]

Idk

[polar wing]

@ancient schooner

[ancient schooner]

so

hopefully

[tribal shadow]

Don't worry... I use Gimp anyway

[polar wing]

itll work this time

[ancient schooner]

🥹

[small yoke]

the easier process would be to use your own files in your eb folder to avoid problems with outdated files from other sources and stuff

[ancient schooner]

ngl I might just do that

[polar wing]

why didnt you in the first place

[ancient schooner]

because I don't know how 💀

[polar wing]

literally just drag file from eb onto nau

[ancient schooner]

final words

before

[small yoke]

no white edges?

[ancient schooner]

biblically accurate delta

reappeared

[polar wing]

if it doesnt work it's koshirei's fault

[ancient schooner]

ngl

i think it's the

texture

[small yoke]

[ancient schooner]

deleting the texture

lets start from step 1

[polar wing]

ok yk what redo your edits on the current delta file

[ancient schooner]

step -2

[polar wing]

nah step 0

go back

[tribal shadow]

Well... I don't see any yet, but I might switch to paint.net anyway

or just work on one texture between programs

[ancient schooner]

k file is decompressed

[polar wing]

now

extract the png inside

[small yoke]

I just want something between PS and paint.net in terms of utilities and flexibility

[polar wing]

using asset studio

cause its easier

[tribal shadow]

Gimp + plugins:

[ancient schooner]

asset studio download where

found it

https://github.com/Perfare/AssetStudio

[tribal shadow]

Imo RazTools is better

[ancient schooner]

😭

[polar wing]

go to releases

dont download master

[ancient schooner]

what advantages does it have over asset studio?

[small yoke]

I don't rememer which one I use but if it works, it works

[ancient schooner]

https://tenor.com/view/wheniwasolder-gif-20838458

[small yoke]

AssetStudioGUI_NKAB_v3.7z

actually

[ancient schooner]

okay so 3.7z

[tribal shadow]

Can't say much.
All I know is that is continued and works for newer stuff that may crash on normal AssetStudio in the future

[small yoke]

and the exe in "net472" folder

[polar wing]

this one opens file without needing to decrypt first right

i think it was made for that purpose

[tribal shadow]

I think I have too many

[ancient schooner]

great now I have it

[polar wing]

kinda dumb tho since you still need the bundle file to edit

what the fuck

[small yoke]

unity folder files yes, eb folder files idk

[polar wing]

try it

[ancient schooner]

welp

[small yoke]

I'll check RazTools version then

[ancient schooner]

ngl, someone should really make a tool that does it all

[tribal shadow]

works the same but has newer libraries

[ancient schooner]

or at least half of these steps

[small yoke]

https://tenor.com/view/ares-god-of-war-xwp-xena-warrior-princess-gif-17504725

[ancient schooner]

I've been at this for 3 hours+

[tribal shadow]

when I was starting I spent a day, then next day goofing around with textures

[ancient schooner]

I would enjoy it

if my damn UABEA and nikketools didn't shit themselves

[tribal shadow]

Now i wonder what should I do...

I am bored. Mouse is sht now so i can't draw lines

[polar wing]

start replacing pieces of characters with their skins

like what i did with mast

[ancient schooner]

well you could join me in my journey

in an epic quest

[tribal shadow]

THE ONE PIECE

[ancient schooner]

to make delta into astolfo

[small yoke]

NikkeTools gave me problems too, so I just sent it to my trash bin and started to use NAU for everything

[tribal shadow]

why would you turn a tomboy into a femboy...

[ancient schooner]

because of this

[tribal shadow]

just a recolor?

[ancient schooner]

yeah you can

literally recolor her hair

[tribal shadow]

it's 1 am
gonna check on it tomorrow

[ancient schooner]

replace the mouth with a perm smile from rupee kit

wait how easy is it to replace a standing with a gif?

[tribal shadow]

for the face I'd need Spine

[polar wing]

wdym

like change the animation?\

[small yoke]

what about that old Maiden mod?

[ancient schooner]

like this you just swap it

[polar wing]

spine pro

[ancient schooner]

to a gif or an image

[polar wing]

300 dollars

[ancient schooner]

well fuck right

[polar wing]

license so you have to pay yearly

[ancient schooner]

well fuck

[tribal shadow]

I mean... I could. But I am lazy. yeah.

[polar wing]

duality of man

[ancient schooner]

the duality of my mind because I spent the entire day learning "okay do this" then seeing someone else come in and say

"actually why not do this?"

then it doesn't work

and someone else says

"yk this parts easier if you use this"

[tribal shadow]

I guess I could make a rough image of what i want to do with her and then change the rest on paint.net because of edges

[ancient schooner]

@polar wing yo can you post ur delta texture

[small yoke]

the process is tedious but We do it for the waifus

[polar wing]

what you cant get your own?

hold on i gotta redownload my delta

[ancient schooner]

yeah that's why

I didn't make a backup of delta

[polar wing]

what

[ancient schooner]

weird I thought I made one

[tribal shadow]

Also, I wonder if there even is a plugin that aligns the texture based on the .skel file.
would be so much easier to edit.

[polar wing]

there probably isnt

[tribal shadow]

yeah, figured.
WE LIVE IN PAIN

the spain without the s

[small yoke]

you can just:

1. close the game
2. delete your Delta files from your eb folder completely
3. open the game
4. the game will download Delta original files again automatically

[tribal shadow]

nah

[polar wing]

yeah we talked about this like a couple hours ago

[ancient schooner]

OH YEHA LOL]

THAT GUY

[tribal shadow]

just go to outpost
delete delta file
go back to nikke
and click on her

so it downloads her files again

[polar wing]

wouldn't she be invisible?

cause theres nothing to load

[tribal shadow]

nah

[polar wing]

dayum

[tribal shadow]

downloads again

[polar wing]

let me try

[tribal shadow]

it takes a bit to download the file but it does

[polar wing]

DAMN

[tribal shadow]

as long as there isn't any file of X_char name in the eb it will automatically download

you guys didn't know? damn

[polar wing]

no

i just closed nikke

[tribal shadow]

pain

[polar wing]

@ancient schooner

[small yoke]

[polar wing]

i remember i closed nikke everytime to check mods too

[ancient schooner]

🙏

[polar wing]

before i found out outpost strat

[tribal shadow]

going to outpost refreshes stuff, so yeah

I guess imma just... fetch new files for maiden standing... do sht tomorrow if I don't forget and continue for next days

[ancient schooner]

whatchu gonna do with maiden

[tribal shadow]

open her chest, idk
change black color to skin color

remove long ass dress

just like I did on older files

I still can't believe I haven't touched it since then

shading without having everything aligned is so ass

yeah... ima redo whole thing tomorrow

8 months

[small yoke]

must be nice to redraw Nikke mods with AI

[tribal shadow]

Me who just uses sheer power of will and the office mouse:

[ancient schooner]

M'kay remade da hair

[small yoke]

I had to redraw manga chapters before and it was a bit easier for the black&white, but colored stuff is too much for me

[polar wing]

i wanna learn how to make mods using ai

[small yoke]

https://tenor.com/view/you-and-me-both-jason-hayes-seal-team-both-of-us-it-affects-us-gif-23680274

[polar wing]

dont think there's a tutorial on that tho

[ancient schooner]

would be so much easier if only I could just

[polar wing]

😭

[ancient schooner]

paste the new texture onto asset studio

and then save

[polar wing]

asset studio is just an extractor

[tribal shadow]

probably just taking standing and using img->img

[ancient schooner]

😔

[polar wing]

that's uabea's job

[ancient schooner]

aka the one thing I can't use

[tribal shadow]

then glueing it all together

[tribal shadow]

imma check sth...

[polar wing]

just try again

you download uabea from bingle right?

[tribal shadow]

nope, RazTools is also only the extractor

[polar wing]

not from github

[ancient schooner]

💀

[polar wing]

well

guess you can mod now

assuming you did go to github

[ancient schooner]

It

🥹

[polar wing]

works?

say it works now mf

[ancient schooner]

yes

[polar wing]

and just like that

[ancient schooner]

what compress method

LZ4?

[polar wing]

yeah

[tribal shadow]

the smallest possible

[polar wing]

no the fastest possible

[tribal shadow]

well... I use LZMA anyway

I don't feel any difference anyway

[ancient schooner]

launching game

[polar wing]

saves time

luh mao

[tribal shadow]

time, literally 10s compression difference

[polar wing]

10 whole seconds

thats a whole full burst

🗿

[tribal shadow]

now I wait...

[ancient schooner]

pain

[tribal shadow]

[ancient schooner]

it's been here for a while

[polar wing]

its stuck isnt it

brah

[tribal shadow]

you'll have to endure it

[ancient schooner]

yes

[polar wing]

drag compressed back onto nau

get rid of dec_enc.bundle assuming you followed my video

[ancient schooner]

k just had to fix that

I accidently repacked the original

[tribal shadow]

just make a file, name it whatever and keep the damn original

[tribal shadow]

she's ginger-ish now

[ancient schooner]

decided to mess around

[polar wing]

is that what delta looks like without her vest

[small yoke]

[tribal shadow]

also, yeah, her torso is lost

still better than Maiden's hair without the dress

[ancient schooner]

her torso is basically just a black tank top

can 100% just make it black colored or change it into a proper wife beater

OOOOOR

I can find something to paste over it

[tribal shadow]

2 am, I am off to sleep

cya

I wonder what you'll cook

just don't burn the damn kitchen

[small yoke]

https://tenor.com/view/the-office-michael-scott-steve-carell-where-are-they-lost-gif-4373179

[ancient schooner]

I'll probably start doing random stuff

[ancient schooner]

best thing to do would be to add nipples to it since she's already flat

then boom you got femboy mod

uh how 2 do nipples and even then how would I make it look like it's under the clothing

[small yoke]

AI-generated boobs where?

[ancient schooner]

how 2 even make the AI add to it properly

just realized delta looks like she has a bulge in her pants

even more of a reason why astolfo would fit it

[red canopy]

[ancient schooner]

sleep for now, tomorrow the grind continues

[red canopy]

If there was ever Nikke that could be a good Femboy Delta would be one of them

[woeful plinth]

I was pingponged

Aha

Uhh hard to put it in words
