Modded Assets Discussion

[half bone]

are you on CN server?

[teal plinth]

no

EpinelPS

[bitter spade]

What

[half bone]

huh?

[bitter spade]

Found the issue. The bat files are the problem, both of them throwing errors. Using B1, B2, B3, D, E, 0 works perfectly

[lavish steppe]

private server

he wants to mod there even though files are different, wonder why its not working huh

[teal plinth]

i don't think that's the question because it works before 25.5.30

weird enough

[bitter spade]

Probably they modified the files

[lavish steppe]

was it updated when the game was?

to include the database changes and everything?

[teal plinth]

maybe my game version is too old (133.8.2D)

[lavish steppe]

idk how versions work there, official is 133.8.2, no D

[scarlet pollen]

you need to check the dp catalog file. this one is the latest -> "dp_87e4a1d_catalog.db"

[teal plinth]

dp_cf7afb8_catalog.db

mine:

[teal plinth]

yes, i think that's the question

thank you

i need to update my game version

[bitter spade]

How would you update your game if there are no updates

[lavish steppe]

since he's running private server he can have updates anytime, not related to main game

[teal plinth]

download an official version and replace it

[bitter spade]

I see

[lavish steppe]

or that, idk how it works tbh

[cosmic quest]

official is 133.8.2Q，2D is order version

[lavish steppe]

I was looking at launcher not database file

[teal plinth]

Thank you !! Everything is fine now

@small yoke you could add "Step 1. Update your game" in mod wiki. XD

[bitter spade]

Why discord shows you as spam

[half bone]

My guess is that his account previously clicked on those spam link which made his account to spam those as well...and someone prolly reported that.

[cosmic quest]

[teal plinth]

Why discord shows me as spam

[teal plinth]

maybe for i have used the cheapest vpn which was used by more than 10000 people.

[bitter spade]

Goddamn

You can use free ones like windscribe which gives limited date. That is if you want to use only for discord

[teal plinth]

hhh, mine was $100 for 10 years, so whatever

[half bone]

added nikke character codes in the wiki itself. it will fetch for new characters once daily (12:00am UTC +0 timezone), so as long as the dotgg's character id list is updated, the wiki's list will be auto updated as well.

that button will only be visible in the mod creation page....since other pages dun really need it

just clicking anywhere out of the texts' region will close it

please lemme know if it's not fetching the characters for any of you

[lofty ridge]

png editing is funny sometimes

jelly boobs

[stone bloom]

Ah yeah

Rogue

[lofty ridge]

she seems impossible

maybe i try aim and cover

or is that also screwed

[stone bloom]

No what im about to say is different

Her face is opposites the light source, show her skin has shadow on it, plus reflection color, so it a bit blue-ish (blue overlayed). Most people will eyedropped her forehead color to draw her body

The correct color and shading must from her left hand

[lofty ridge]

mhm i did notice that. AI cant get this right

maybe it can but i cant

[stone bloom]

Practicing, color theories

[lofty ridge]

will leave tht to the pros

[gusty oracle]

What program is this

[lofty ridge]

live2dviewerEX

[lament ruin]

you are making these great boobs with free software?

wtf

[lofty ridge]

This is just viewer

[half bone]

and afaik, live2dviewerEX isn't free

[lament ruin]

its like 5 bucks right?

i think i bought it

[lofty ridge]

Yeah 5 bucks

[lament ruin]

on steam

[half bone]

that + spine dlc

iirc

[lament ruin]

yes some extra but still cheap

i am just missing the 400 dollar spine pro license

[half bone]

[gusty oracle]

Surely someone's gonna crack Spine someday or make a skel2json converter

[lofty ridge]

400 is mental man, blender is free for 3d shit

[scarlet pollen]

here my speed drawing. the next step would be to import it into Spine2D..

super ineffective the drawing part... maybe its time to start using AI to draw

[lofty ridge]

What's more ineffective is me assembling the atlas file textures one by one to build the character and use that kek

[half bone]

[half bone]

and did you just drop a 22min video on discord?? what's the size of the file?

a 3min video with nvidia's screen record take about 100~400MB for me

[scarlet pollen]

it was around 6GB before compression. I compressed it to 100MB with Wondershare.

[half bone]

and u used Nier music

thanks

its a great video. do you mind if I upload that to the wiki in mod suggestion page? if you do allow, best would be if you upload it to your channel, that way if any viewer that's likes it, they can check your channel out.

[scarlet pollen]

yeah sure. idc

[half bone]

will you upload it? or will I?

[rugged snow]

group buy it, then host on a cloud pc

[twilit plover]

"Speed Drawing"

Now I am just starring at the screen because I am unable to form words for a proper reply because I just watched 21 minute video and this is considered relatively easy compared to actual character models.

and You drop 4 different version of the same model

I really think you guys should try your hand at AI inpainting using comfy UI.

[twilit plover]

I said that based on what I tried like 1.5 year ago, turns out you don't even have to mark the area with highlighters in New tools

https://youtu.be/EBNxyL89LtM

its all chat based with new models

[tribal shadow]

damn

[lament ruin]

i'm happy to see that the future is here

ai is amazing as long as the character's hair is done properly too

i'd like to see the ai edit nikke png files if anyone has a video about that it would be great

[obsidian star]

i would love to see AI optimizes nikke codebase

[lofty ridge]

i do this this way #1041207949508497548 message

its still shit

but

[small yoke]

I guess it's better to say He protects his mods from being modified? when you load his mods on UABEA and AssetStudio you can't get the assets

[lofty ridge]

modifying it means you can copy it anyway

so same shit i think

[small yoke]

do you know if it's possible to do relatively good inpaint with free online ai? I just know novelai and it's paid.... and my potato can't handle local generation

[small yoke]

I mean He did some stuff to his mods to be able to load his assets on NMM but not externally on tools like UABEA

[bitter spade]

[rocky vine]

@small yoke no Siren skin swap yet with DORO tool, my lord ?

[lament ruin]

did u type in little mermaid?

[rocky vine]

ohhhh I typed Siren instead of that
thanks man haha

[small yoke]

her name in-game is little mermaid so I used that one

[wicked pivot]

do you have the si_c082_80_s image ?

wonder if I can use the bot uhhh

anis show me c082_80

how did it work guh

[half bone]

I can get it if you want, it's in the game currently, right?

[wicked pivot]

no

it's in the chinese game

if it was in ours I'd have gotten it and wouldn't ask kxde

[half bone]

oh, I see

[polar wing]

is there a new name format for portrait mods

icons

[half bone]

btw, are the latest catalog files working in a1teri's site? the physics tab is working for me, but the others aren't

[polar wing]

what r the latest

or where

[half bone]

these

....wait...are those something else?

core.json...I thought that was short for catalog-core

dunno what even is pck, so I assumed it is the main catalog file

[polar wing]

they should come in 3s right

[half bone]

the physics was shared a bit later, and it worked

[polar wing]

can u link me alteri website

im not on my pc rn

[half bone]

ok found the issue

[polar wing]

what

[half bone]

the names of the keys are different

[polar wing]

they look the same to me

[polar wing]

u said keys

smh

i looked at the part where it said key

but yeah i noticed the beginning

[half bone]

either lorax will need to go back to previous format, or a1teri will need to change to this new format

[half bone]

in programming that's what we call those:
{"key": "value"}

[polar wing]

crazy

how would i know that

i code using chatgpt

[half bone]

now you know

[small yoke]

I think He shared it like that because He was in a hurry

[half bone]

could be

[small yoke]

because I was requesting for the new catalogs when He was busy I guess

[half bone]

are these for manual use or do these work with a1teri's site(doubt)?

[small yoke]

I forgot to update the lobby/burst one for doro tools.... but since nobody noticed errors I'll leave it like that

[half bone]

if for a1teri's, then will update the wiki

[small yoke]

Idk if a1teri web still works with old Bingle format

[rocky vine]

Can anyone try skin swap 00 <- 01 for Little Mermaid or Mihara bonding chain with DORO tools and see if it works ?
In my case the aim and cover are always missing for those 2

[small yoke]

These are my scripts to parse Lorax format to Bingle old format

[half bone]

it does I guess, since now at least background is showing something

[small yoke]

noice then

[twilit plover]

Nope, I have always relied on local generation. But hey that doesn't mean there is not any workaround.

I am hoping that there's already someone out there who is released a Google Collab .ipynb project of such tool which can inpaint

just have to spend time on finding it on YouTube and GitHub

[twilit plover]

https://youtu.be/Hc175UihjkE

check out this one

also this GitHub repo that were quite useful like a year ago

https://github.com/lllyasviel/Fooocus

and this repo too

https://github.com/ehristoforu/DeFooocus

[bitter spade]

For any skin swap on Doro tools atm, you need to do B1, B2, B3, D, E and 0. The bat files are screwed for some reason, atleast for me.

[near creek]

There's a modded assets chat?!

[wicked pivot]

😘

[bitter spade]

Only backgrounds are showing for me

[lofty ridge]

you can try some in civitai

or tensorart

idk how good they are tho

wainsfw is my goto for anything anime related. hassaku is also good i think

[half bone]

yea, the latest catalog does follow the previous format. so doesn't work on the website

[twilit plover]

does spine have the functionality to convert skel to json?

can anyone send me the files, both skel and json if it has that kind of functionality

[lofty ridge]

pretty sure it does?

actualy idk but once i saw someone who asked someone else to do it here

[cosmic quest]

you can choose binary or json when you export

[lofty ridge]

so wait so can someone

[twilit plover]

there is no particular repo on github that says it suports 4.1 version.
I was recommended this repo which has 4.2 support https://github.com/kiraio-moe/Skel2Json, but that too had too many errors in the codebase. I tried fixing them but end result was absurd.

[lofty ridge]

who has spine

get all the nikke models

and convert

to json

and upload somewhere

i know it is a tall ask

but is it possible

[twilit plover]

I am not an artist and I have long forgotten how old modding technique used to work since android mods stopped working. but can you guys tell me that where do you use the converted json files

[lofty ridge]

ive heard of dragonbones and heard it can use that from here

its free

[twilit plover]

yeah that one's opensource, I've heard about it.
So how do you test the json files if they are actually working or not.

[light mulch]

Me in nutsell is just run on unity lol, cause I try to add the effect background

[half bone]

incase you didn't notice, could you check DM please?

[twilit plover]

can anyone send me any character's spine 4.1.20 version skel, atlas and spine converted json. and that same chacters spine 4.2.33 version skel, atlas and spine converted json files.

[cosmic quest]

base on Seireiko's free mod

[twilit plover]

thanks, can you send me the same but for spine 4.2.33 version

[twilit plover]

also the skel file too of this one

[cosmic quest]

Spine doesn't support upgrading projects from older versions to newer ones. While newer versions can export to older formats, some data may be lost in the process.

[bitter spade]

Where is the new format available for catalog?

that works with the website

[cosmic quest]

I created the project in version 4.2, then imported it into 4.1 to re-export it.

[half bone]

we dun have it

[lavish oasis]

dose anyone knows how to unpack PNG files without disarrange them?

[cosmic quest]

need the atlas file

[lavish oasis]

I unpacked it with spine and it turned out like this

[twilit plover]

Ohhh man, there are some repo that says it supports 4.2 but to check if it actually works I need to pass the skel and atlas of version 4.2

4.1 throws erros

[twilit plover]

can I get original skel files

[lavish oasis]

and what should i do bro

[cosmic quest]

cannot unpack or ?

[twilit plover]

Thanks a lot mate

can I disturb you one more time

4.1 json ✅

4.1 skel ❌

4.1 atlas ✅

4.2 json ✅

4.2 skel ✅

4.2 atlas ❌

this two files are still missing so can you send them back 😅

[lavish oasis]

the PNG after unpacking and exporting is messy

[crude grove]

New atlas?

[bitter spade]

So no way to use A1tieri website atm

[half bone]

yep, will have to wait till lorax gives us catalog files in the previous format most likely

[bitter spade]

I see, thanks.

[cosmic quest]

you want pack a png texture following the original layout?

[lavish oasis]

yeah bro

[bitter spade]

Which spine are you using

[lavish oasis]

That's exactly what I meant

[cosmic quest]

when you export , packing setting> format = png , packing =polygons ,page min and max , 2048

[twilit plover]

I am trying out some skel2json projects from github and checking if I can make one that can support nikke character models for skel2json for spine version 4.1.20

[bitter spade]

Gotta be hard

Blender can't export to json?

[lavish oasis]

It worked! thank u brother

[twilit plover]

I am not the artist so I can't handle and drawing and things, I can handle coding to some extent tho 😅

[twilit plover]

Thanks a lot man

[bitter spade]

I used to use Blender for architectural designs but I haven't touched the program in 5 yrs

Probably forgotten everything

I shifted to construction supervision instead

[light mulch]

Dude, it just different field name

You can just open notepad and use find and replace to edit them first

[twilit plover]

4.2 successfully got converted and 4.1 threw error.
However the file size has high difference, the original one is almost 1 kb larger

Can you check if this json file is working good?

[half bone]

yea, we can do it manually, but it can't be used in A1teri's file finder site. So while I, as well as some other people, wont have issues, most of the people here likes to use it with the site since that is easier for them and most of the tutorial shows them to do it that way.

[light mulch]

I can edit my sqlite filter script for bingle's format

[half bone]

btw, if you don't mind the manual way, you can use these:
#1041207949508497548 message

[bitter spade]

Thanks

[half bone]

that would be the best, thanks!

[cosmic quest]

not working ,

[twilit plover]

Thanks for the log, I can try other things now

[twilit plover]

Spine itself is shit, I tried loading original skel files in spinetrial skeleton viewer and it threw the same error as you showed me.

any recommended spine viewer?

which can accept json files as well

their documentation is also useless for me because I am running the trial version, it always stays 4.3 version for me

[half bone]

Waifu Wallpaper Engine accepts both types. idk if Nikke-db accepts json

[twilit plover]

nikke db does not, I tried

[half bone]

you can get free version of WWE here: https://ko-fi.com/stevehb

oh wait

which runtime do you need again?

4.3?

[light mulch]

Nikke is 4.1

[wicked pivot]

I can add that

it's not that hard of a fix

what's the sudden need for json skeletons recently

it was of question at the game release and never heard since they updated 4.1

are you guys trying to brute force animations by editing the skeleton ?

[half bone]

@twilit plover why are you doing this again? I forgot. was it to modify the spine trial and open more functionality similar to the pro license?

[wicked pivot]

how urgent is the need for it

[manic halo]

https://x.com/ShiftUpWorld/status/1929464043128906118 don't ask him about how he feels about nikke modding

#1041208182539825182 message

I see many messages regarding skel2json converter and I am trying if I can make it work

with either the 4.0 skel2json converter or the newer 4.2 converters

[twilit plover]

Should've asked him "Why did you ban android nikke modding "

[half bone]

he didn't ban android nikke modding, he banned nikke modding entirely. it's just that NMM managed to bypass it while for android, the dvice needs to be root, which triggers autoban anyway

[twilit plover]

difference between gacha payment system and one time AAA purchase system

[bitter spade]

Autoban just because device is rooted?

[half bone]

seems so. my source:
#1041208182539825182 message

[wicked pivot]

so do you want me to update db when I can for json loading?

[gusty oracle]

Hell yeah

You gotta save us

[twilit plover]

Yeah, it would be great

I tried the waifu wallpaper engine, it's good for just seeing whether the json is working or not but not perfect. it makes characters looks like frenkenstine

[half bone]

is it hoping that skel->json would help modifying the skel without spine pro and then json->skel for implementing the modification?

[twilit plover]

yeah pretty much that

[half bone]

also, that's prolly because of transparency. during import, choose PMA for nikke characters

[twilit plover]

ohhh, I'll see that part again in their documentation of the tool.

[half bone]

Nikke models use PMA, Brown Dust 2 models uses nPMA iirc and some other games uses STA

[twilit plover]

but if we Kosirei adds that part in nikke-db, well there's no need to use or add another software in the list of modding tools 😂

[half bone]

so depending on the character's model, you will need to import as either one

[twilit plover]

okay that's better now with n2pma

[half bone]

with n2pma? weird but as long as it works

[wicked pivot]

give me 2/3 hours I'm getting off work

I have a spine template with a near built in json loader but it's old af and is based on my old nikke db so it looks bad I wouldn't recommend

makes me thing I should just nuke the project

can you send me a json/atlas/png combo so I test it out ?

doesn't matter if it's even nikke, as long as it's 4.0 or 4.1

[wicked pivot]

flop impact

didn't know they also had spine

[half bone]

you could use some other games' spine as well if you want, with @steep flume's permission if he allows to share his spine-db link here

[twilit plover]

use this one #1041207949508497548 message

[small yoke]

I'll check them out, if at the end I can finally nude NIKKE waifus

[small yoke]

another alternative that also supports 4.0.x NIKKE models
https://github.com/anosu/Spine-Viewer-Vue

and it loads .json

[gilded scarab]

Have you considered using cloud computing to run local generation, but outsource the resources if your PC can't handle it?

[lofty ridge]

not related to nikke but this is for bd2 . doesn anyone know why these black outline appear.

it only seems to happen at like certain zoom value

but it also appears in game

i cant even remove this

iirc bd2 doesnt even need pma to work with

[wicked pivot]

@twilit plover@half boneight, json loader can be live any minute. I've added a small toggle between skel and json. if you got any feedback go ahead, otherwise I'll just push it in a hour or two

I've looked a bit at the new spine documentation and holy shit they seem to have rewritten the player from scratch for 4.2. like it'd actually take me a week or two to recode for 4.2 while keeping 4.1 and 4.0 alive. hopefully the old way still works

and hopefully SU don't make a change anytime soon

[half bone]

yea looks good to me with the json. but a different issue is somehow the shadow is gone with "Pre-Multiplied: False". is that supposed to go away?

[wicked pivot]

well you tell me I have no clue about alpha and straight

is the shadow supposed to be here ?

I know some jp guy modified the core spine runtime of my project to allow alpha transparency, dunno if it broken non alpha load

I used my glorious STA to PMA converter to fix the png and in alpha it works with the shadow so uhh

any reason you wouldn't use PMA png ?

[half bone]

I believe the shadow should be there..since in-game shows a shaow, well actually pretty dark shadow

but its fine, not a major issue

just caught me off-guard

[wicked pivot]

yeah but the asset is in STA so it's broken by default no ?

converting to PMA fixes it

[half bone]

yea

[odd cloud]

What is Ayakamods?

[crude grove]

Just get it from Nexusmods

This guy just keeps spamming his site

[scarlet pollen]

maybe I went a little bit overboard with the NMM features. Nikke on desktop screen

[odd cloud]

Legends say that NMM will be Nikke2 in the end

[hallow quiver]

curious. do you guys re-download all the bundles or just the new bundles?

[light mulch]

Nexus mod isn’t now probamatic?

[small yoke]

so far I just use free Google Colab notebooks and Civitai popular anime models to generate stuff but never tried inpaint on another character yet

https://tenor.com/view/batman-thinking-gif-9694222

[bitter spade]

This needs to be opened in db browser?

[twilit plover]

Nice, working good. I turned PMA to STA, dropped the output image in the custom spine loader image field with PMA true and it load the model fine

however here's the problem

when turned on the animation, the new image parts that get visible looks kinda weird, like they got pasted on the face

same thing in waifu wallpaper engine looks normal when the model is loaded as n2pma

I don't know what n2pma actually is, but if it is something that can be added then it would be great.

[bitter spade]

How is WWE different from normal WE?

[twilit plover]

make the toggle conditional that automatically changes the default values in the fields

like n2pma gets triggered and the "load a .skel file" turns into "load a .json file" for better accessbility

[twilit plover]

Neither I know much about WWE, I just downloaded it yesterday to test the json skeleton models.

maybe it's as different as "Java" and "Javascript" are

[twilit plover]

do you refer to their github spine runtime repo to build this?

https://github.com/EsotericSoftware/spine-runtimes/blob/4.2/spine-csharp/README.md

[light mulch]

Any like text reading tool work like notepad, vsc, even freaking browser

[half bone]

1. built by different people.
2. WE is about setting a wallpaper that you modify or add different stuffs like interactivity, audio, video, audio responsive etc. WWE's features in img

[bitter spade]

Ahh, so this has more wide scope for live wallpaper creation

[wicked pivot]

their website usually but it's really lacking, when I'm blocked I go check the source code yeah

[cosmic quest]

i think the original texture use pma, you edit by straight mode

[crude grove]

Well, they have the donation points system, so you support the mod creators by just downloading their mods
So I say to download from there, costs nothing to help

[odd cloud]

Damn is it possible to use Google Colab to create NSFW stuff? No issue whatsoever?

[twilit plover]

Not at all, I spent like half a year chatting with my AI girlfriend on google colab

the roleplays used to be really steamy and unexpected

[light mulch]

The issue now is Nexus become political

[half bone]

yep, disgusting

[lament ruin]

it's been political or a decade now

the whole 'can't skin swap to that color' is very old

[half bone]

but very few mod publishing site is as popular/active as nexus

there is gamebanana, but they aren't close to nexus's level

[lament ruin]

that site shares some of the same political issues

but may not be as bad as nexus

if basedmod's ui wasn't awful it could become popular

[small yoke]

yeah, and if you have multiple emails you can just switch to another one when you hit the free limit to keep generating content for research purposes

the models I use the most are wainsfw and hassaku, sometimes with nikkes loras or some other series/game

I'll try the inpaint function

[twilit plover]

let's say if there comes out a skel2json converter in future, it may become easier to modify files using dragonbones
but, how will you guys make it work if there's no option to convert it back to skel file from the json file?

like, is there option to just directly load json files in the NMM? I have never used NMM so I don't know if there is a functionality for that or not

[small yoke]

We need the json2skel yep... to get the skel2json is just the first step

would be cool if someone makes a mod manager that work like BDX for BrownDustII, to load the assets instead of the bundles but idk if that is even possible for NIKKE

[teal plinth]

you could just create a mod manager which just copy the mod you selected to nmm dir

and it automaticly pack json/skel files from subfolders

maybe i will try

[small yoke]

the issue is you can't import .json directly, you need Spine Pro to convert .json to .skel
that's why We need json2skel script tool

skel2json to get the .json to mod nikkes on Dragonbones--> json2skel to get the modded json back to nikke bundle

[twilit plover]

I am trying hard for skel2json, the shit is so brutal I have missed 2 dailies of nikke

[small yoke]

https://tenor.com/view/spirit-giving-go-go-on-dragon-ball-goku-gif-17441313

[twilit plover]

it's building, brick by brick. array by array

two array successfully got finished, bones and slots

now on IK array, then will come transform and skins. the hardest part will be the animation array

[small yoke]

how bad looks the json2skel part?

[twilit plover]

real bad

you have to convert json to thing like this

it's binary

[small yoke]

https://tenor.com/view/perdemo-gif-26062590

[teal plinth]

https://nikke-modding-wiki.vercel.app/modCreation damn, so hard so long.😫

[twilit plover]

for instance you can fill in and patch json because you can slightly understand result but, for binary, better thing will be to hack spine database to get their official complete runtimes

because opensource ones sucks

they have generalised the files. what do you mean by I have to get the 12 year old .net runtimes

[wicked pivot]

run times are.. run times

they run a spine

they aren't spine modding/editing/converting tools

[twilit plover]

yeah, but they do help. atleast they can read the files if cannot write

which one is the real bundle here

[lethal idol]

Does anyone know any website,program,... that can generate nsfw edit of the images in texure2d files(segmented parts) without breaking the layout?

[lofty ridge]

You have to do it yourself

If only it was that easy

[light mulch]

Bundle name is the folder

So like imagine bundle_name/key for file structure

[lethal idol]

Alright thanks. Now what if the character is split into two parts only ( upper and lower body part). Any suggestions?

[light mulch]

Split the texture to sub sprites

Then just ask AI to make edit for you

[lethal idol]

Can you suggest any website or program to edit?

[cosmic quest]

Maybe designate a specific day for convert to binary

[rugged snow]

someone rents out Spine Pro for $11/month - seems reasonable for testing

[twilit plover]

$0.01 for 1 hour then? I would make that deal

[teal plinth]

On China's ebay, it's 450 yuan($65) for genuine activation.

They say it's a genuine activation code, but I'm not sure if it is or not, I didn't buy it

[lavish oasis]

Spine will give you with two activation codes after you paid, but only allows one person to use it

If two people use it at the same time, Spine will banned that activation code

[vast sandal]

Is this front or back?

[rugged snow]

very suspicious.

[gusty oracle]

Maybe stolen codes or something?

[cosmic quest]

i have not through agent ,i only got 1 activation code

[lavish oasis]

Oh right, not two activation code, but it allows two computers to use one activation code

[odd cloud]

I also heard that they are checking locations tho, like if one code from China and one from France it means there is an issue

[lavish oasis]

yeah, thats true

[cosmic quest]

vpn?

[lavish oasis]

i saw somebody get banned because of this

[cosmic quest]

[upper compass]

I have a question about Android and iOS mods. Are the skin files in a location that cannot be accessed without rooting or jailbreaking, and also is it possible that the game detects rooting or jailbreaking and bans it, which means that mods cannot be used?

[silver zodiac]

Mods for mobile is dead

[upper compass]

Even if I could access the skin location and replace the skin with the mod's, it wouldn't work?

[half bone]

rooting / jailbreaking triggers autoban, doesn't it?

and so far no one figured out a way to replace the files without root

[silver zodiac]

In the first place, the files encrypted.

[bitter spade]

Root can be hidden though. Idk how Nikke checks it

[dull forge]

Funny idea I had cuz I noticed that rei sounds like a younger quency to me, what if someone made a mod where rei's hair is recolored to look like quency's. Or even someone just takes quency's hair and just plops it onto rei's model lol

[upper compass]

Are the skin filenames different from the PC version?

[silver zodiac]

Yeah

[twilit plover]

I checked the trial and it always needs internet connection on the startup. It sends some TCP packets and receives some in return.

So I guess that might be true

[half bone]

well, Adobe softwares also always asks for internet connection, right? but cracked Adobe software run without it. So similarly, is it possible to disable that in the trial? or does it run entirely server side like Generative AI of photoshop?

[twilit plover]

No everything is on the client side, one who has good knowledge of reverse engineering can easily crack and bypass the needs of internet connection

even the trial and pro version is exact same

it might download 2-3 mb extra probably if moving to pro, so even if someone has a pro version which they got banned on is good for testing out

[twilit plover]

The files can be replaced, problem is that game invalidates those files and replaces them again by downloading original files ones again

[gusty oracle]

LMAO just because I asked why a hobbyist etc should pay a full $369 same as a full-time game dev or a big company who can and will make out of spine. And why ESS is basically useless unless you are learning. Yeah no now I'll never buy this. I hope that skel2json thing works one day. I'd rather donate to that person than pay this company a single dollar

[light mulch]

Csv conversion tool cost 1000$ if you want to download as application btw

[teal plinth]

someone want to try try my mod selector?

https://github.com/X-T-E-R/NikkeModSelector

just a selector that copy file to nmm dir

[teal plinth]

yolo, might be fake but worth the risk

[cosmic quest]

預覽失敗No image or video files found

[teal plinth]

that means the folder contains no preview files?

you should place it manually or use spine viewer vue cli to automatically generate previews

[cosmic quest]

👌

working

[teal plinth]

well i guess they just share one code with about 6 - 8 people. So the price gets down

[tribal shadow]

I'll check it later

[upper compass]

How did the first person who decrypted the catalog decrypt the catalog file? From the db file and nds file? You didn't check the contents of each one to see if they match, right?

[tribal shadow]

okay, it works
my mod folder structure just doesn't match yours

since yours is: many modder_modName folders in cXXX_folder
and mine is: many cXXX_folders in xModder_folder

I am too lazy to change the structure

I'd need to repack everything anyway

I'll let it be the way it is

[teal plinth]

nah

there is a very simple way bro

[teal plinth]

you know why am i adding the multiple sources design? you could just add different author's folder as different sources

@tribal shadow

[tribal shadow]

ooooooooooooooh

now I get it

hold on, lemme try that

works nice

I still need to rebuild the structure on my end a bit anyway

as for "generate now" button:

[teal plinth]

for you didn't copy the spine viewer to where you set

[tribal shadow]

I didn't know I needed to do that

[teal plinth]

it's not perfect yet

[tribal shadow]

which spine viewer should I copy over and where to put it?

nvm, I see it now

[teal plinth]

i will fix something after, but now u can use the file i sent before https://1drv.ms/f/s!ArtUHR6Vq2wYtrA9ml8ijk8sG3xwfw?e=gdumCf

[tribal shadow]

I am dumdum

[teal plinth]

nah, my fault. i should add i18n for preview error and logger

[teal plinth]

set exe path

[tribal shadow]

idk what it's logging now

[teal plinth]

maybe that works

Na0h use some tech and UnityPY can't preview his files, so try another file?

[tribal shadow]

and it keeps opening the spine viewer without me doing anything

for each mod listed

[teal plinth]

close the option

[tribal shadow]

I am disabling it for now

still, I need to change my mod folder sorting

on my end

[teal plinth]

hhh

[gusty oracle]

Don't you think we should be able to create threads in modded-assets, for discussions specifically for the posted mods? Or maybe a forum channel instead (like #1053243642329972867 type of forum) where people can comment on them

[polar wing]

#1041207949508497548

[gusty oracle]

I meant under every mod, "specific" discussions

Because it seems nobody actually use these threads to ask about mods but keep reacting

[light mulch]

#modded-assets is for released mod

[gusty oracle]

...that's why I suggested using threads since it's their purpose

Well nevermind

Plus as far as I know futa or 🏳️‍⚧️ content in general was allowed, why people react catalyzer's mod like that

[half bone]

other than loli lewd mods, anything is allowed. the rest are opinions. so people reacting like that to anyone's mod is just them expressing what they feel. there are no rules for such mod and no rules forbidding people to react

[lament ruin]

modding isn't active enough to warrant a bunch of different threads

[half bone]

if someone doesn't like a mod, they wont use it, but nothing stopping modders to post mods like that

[gusty oracle]

Oh alright thanks Lady. I wouldn't want anyone to feel bad about what they created. If it's just that it's okay you are right everyone has the right to react the way they want

[half bone]

Infact the only other person that made futa mod is Seireiko afaik

[gusty oracle]

Yeah I realized and that's why I felt like I must ask this. Finally someone makes futa content for free, I wouldn't want him to understand things wrong and feel discouraged

He makes like 5 different version of a mod everytime, amazing work really

[crude grove]

Yuk1 made one for Cinderella

[crude grove]

These people always exist not to worry

[lament ruin]

majority of nikke players don't like that shit lets be real they play a waifu game for waifus

[crude grove]

The guy who reacted with trash emoji actually did it because it was Mori

[lament ruin]

i'm sure the authors know this already they aren't new on the internet

[crude grove]

Did the same when there was no mention of such content

@jovial locust

[gusty oracle]

Of course yeah but simply not downloading/using it is always an option

Sorry guys I didn't mean anything bad by the way, like I said I just thought the author might understand things differently

So it's better to talk about it

[gusty oracle]

Haha yeah I realized the second I saw it. This guy really likes long hair

[lament ruin]

there are many story reasons to hate mori but that's another subject that's already been discussed to death

[odd cloud]

People may react to show that they dislike that as well to be honest, maybe there is no misunderstanding 🤷‍♂️

Imo putting an emoji is the lighest possible way to show that, no need to be that sensitive over every small thing

[gusty oracle]

I mainly say this because of the NOFUTA react chain to be honest. Disgust emojis or 👎🏼 are totally understandable though, that's how you express your take on the mod and it's fine not every mod for everyone

I hope he keeps making them, finally some variety on free mods is good

[crude grove]

Keep making whatever you like 👍

if you don't like the content, just don't download it, it's spoilered anyway whenever it is released

[gusty oracle]

Exactly my feelings ^^

[crude grove]

It's the same person who reacts with that chain everytime

[jovial locust]

i'm the guy who put the "rapithumbsdown" and "trash" emojis there
i don't like Mori at all
i don't like Tomboys with short hair and looks like a loli/borderline loli
so that's why i react with thumbs down emoji every time i see a fan art/mod of Mori
sorry if i offended the mod creator or the mods in the server

[gusty oracle]

Oh no man we were chatting with catalyzer and he also said he understand that you dislike her I'm pretty sure he didn't take any offense or anything like that. And even if it wasn't like that, everyone here still free to react the way they want

[gusty oracle]

Like I said I only brought up this topic because of the "nofuta" reaction. For a moment I thought "wait, since when futa is not allowed?" and obviously it is allowed. And people reacted that way because they dislike that content personally. So yeah other reactions are totally cool and self-explanatory

[lofty ridge]

Doesn't take much to just ignore it but ig I'll never understand people

[gusty oracle]

It's the very core of being a human I guess. If you don't like it, you are against it. Even if you don't have to be

[cosmic quest]

Choose to cater general taste or keep the style is entirely up to the author

[lament ruin]

this is not a style but a fetish

the style is the same just with something extra

[gusty oracle]

I disagree with calling it a fetish that but let's go with that direction, still doesn't change the fact that it's still up to author and it's allowed

This whole conversation was about people trying to get their idea of ideal on others through reactions. Just because A person hates X thing doesn't mean that X should be removed or get shit on. This is a stupid loop. Both parties can just ignore what they dislike and move on. That's what I do personally. Otherwise you like it or not entirely depends on you, it's your sexuality and your choices. Obviously none of us here can say anything about that

[odd cloud]

A place where you can't even show that you are disliking something is not a kind place or anything, its simply suffocating.

As I said before putting an reaction is probably the lightest way of doing that, nobody asked for a ban or removal, nobody even said anything bad. If you ask me nothing happened that worth talking over, simply as that.

[gusty oracle]

I believe we have a misunderstanding, nobody said you cannot show you dislike something. Please read the messages again

Actually you know what, it's okay man. I really don't feel like trying to get people to be open minded. They can keep reacting "nofuta" as well I shouldn't have said anything from the start. As long as the concept is allowed, it's fine by me

[gusty oracle]

By the way can we use __data files with NMM or still need to put in their folders?

[cosmic quest]

Cannot put in Nmm

[lament ruin]

dictionary definition of the word

not a matter of opinion

[gusty oracle]

I was talking about the term "femboy" not futa just saying

[lament ruin]

yeah that one is more contentious

[stone bloom]

see

now you guy understand what i'm feeling when someone thumb down my mods

[gusty oracle]

Oh man it's not about "disliking", dislike emojis are fine

I was talking about "nofuta" emojis

It's like as if it's not allowed

I feel like everybody here in chat misunderstood that one thing

[stone bloom]

nikke gooner cannot read

what do you expect

anyway

since when

Mori can be considered as loli? who said that?

[gusty oracle]

Yeah I think so. That's why I said it like 5 times, disliking a mod is fine you don't have to like everything lmao

[gusty oracle]

Nobody

[stone bloom]

Catalyzer mod for Mori has a problem, he erased the clothes without keeping the logic of the pose, so the waist feeling is not there

[gusty oracle]

Unusable!!

[stone bloom]

The removal of clothing often necessitates careful consideration of the fully revealed body parts, adhering to a consistent anatomical logic. Deviating from this logic may result in those parts appearing anatomically incorrect or distorted

[gusty oracle]

Oh you are serious

[stone bloom]

Mori's outfit is tight. remove it will let the muscle back to it original form

[gusty oracle]

Right yes some mods sometimes have that problem

[stone bloom]

Mori pose looks like this, so yeah, for someone with big ass like her we should keep the vibe of the bottom part

the pelvic structure is the key to make character sexier so yeah, put a bit more effort to it, you will see the different

if she is meta or at least have some use in game, i might make mod for her, but well

but with modder like Catalyzer we can expect to have some more love for character that have no love in the game

[gusty oracle]

Yes it is necessary to have a certain level of anatomy knowledge to fix things like this

[gusty oracle]

Surely someone gonna like her eventually lmao

[stone bloom]

probably not Oichi

[gusty oracle]

I'll assume this is Eve? Is this your model or from someone else? Crazy it's only the demo, looking forward to see what modders gonna do after full release

[stone bloom]

not me, this is model from other modder. i only take this for body references

[half bone]

I think it's Ayakamods? could be wrong

[crude grove]

That's like saying Catalyzer's mods are Nikke Community

It's just a site where people post mods

[gusty oracle]

Oh yeah it's on that site

https://github.com/nesrak1/UABEA

[half bone]

they do

[small yoke]

did u test some repacked mods with that UABEA ingame?

[half bone]

didn't try in-game, but the ss you see is the latest original file from aeb folder, and I also tried loading my own mod that is a year old. both successfully loaded in UABEA, but didn't try repacking yet. gimme some time and will try repacking my mod

[small yoke]

take your time

if they work I could try to modify the source code for CLI commands like I did with anosu Spine Viewer
that way I could drop UnityPy for some of the tools and to use UABEA with CLI commands instead, to skip the 12GB of shit Python needs only for UnityPy

[half bone]

I can't promise I'll do it today though, since we have a festival here today and will have to work on it as I'm called

[small yoke]

oh lol, np
I'll test it later if I don't forget about it

you can click on a step and it will take you to the step that has been referenced, so you don't manually have to find that specific step again. this is because people may get lost among all the texts. and to find your way back to where you were, the text stay highlighted until you click on it again.
also added two tutorials by Na0h, one for modders with spine and another for without spine, both on mod suggestions page

there wont be any red arrow tho on the website.

should I use NMM for mods?

[crude grove]

If you want to use mods, you have to

There's no other option

[viscid falcon]

Thank you, is it possible to install mods on your phone?

[crude grove]

No

Only game files which are not encrypted can be modded on phone

Which include lobby wallpaper/burst animations

[distant sparrow]

My Nikke loading screen stuck at 43 after installing mods.

[lavish oasis]

delete everything in: %USERPROFILE%\AppData\LocalLow\com_proximabeta\NIKKE\com.unity.addressables
restart game without using nmm and let it fully load
exit game
start nmm, select game path, apply mods
start game again
if stuck at 43%, also manually delete UnityCrashHandler in nikke.exe folder

[scarlet pollen]

Anyone wanna test my new NMM? You can use it just as a viewer, but activating mods should work with it too.

[rugged snow]

DM

[scarlet pollen]

let me just post it here:

This version may still have some bugs. You can use it just as a viewer, but activating mods should work with it too.
It still uses Danierus server to activate the mods. I’ve removed the offline activation, ofc

Instructions:

1. Unzip it somewhere.,
2. Copy your mod folder into this folder.,
3. Select the game path first. <---- important,
4. Done. "Apply mods" should now work or not

[rugged snow]

does it require updates?

so it's on the local side, with code encryption, no more maintenance needed?

[scarlet pollen]

nope, that feature isn't included.

[scarlet pollen]

oh you meant danierus update. Thats still required.

[rugged snow]

the viewer is decent, can you add audio support?

[scarlet pollen]

maybe only if enough people want it

[rugged snow]

put it on Microsoft Store, with multi-game support, as an alternative to Live2DViewerEX. @scarlet pollen

[scarlet pollen]

If I do that, I’ll have to remove the nikke mod activation and add more spine support.

[bitter spade]

Sure

[half bone]

yep, it wont be a Nikke Mod Manager anymore then. It would be a generic Spine Viewer.

[odd cloud]

Honestly, for your own sake I would do it.

You can still side-develop this or help people if you want. Its not like there are much to add as NikkeModManager anyway.

[scarlet pollen]

nah. There’s already another cool viewer that has all the features. WWE (waifuwallpaperengine)

[stone bloom]

the round table has met and agreed that the NMM client side will never be shared with the public due to all the limitations it brings

[odd cloud]

Yeah I forget about that 👍

I would appreciate it if you could add a name and version number to the new NMM.
This will help avoid confusion about which NMM is being used when we receive inquiries from users.

[tribal shadow]

it has different exe name

and icon

and layout

and is lighter in size

[scarlet pollen]

yeah, that was completely reprogrammed in C++/Qt.

[half bone]

just say Na0h's NMM

[tribal shadow]

ayyyyy, that's cool

[stone bloom]

just say NMM

[tribal shadow]

"I fucked up using NMM"

"which one"

"the quirky one"

Na0h Mod Manager, Na0h's Moan Manager

if I remove the 3 mods from the desktop viewer, the EXE could even be around 20mb smaller. I hardcoded those 3 example mods into it to showcase the desktopviewert

[red hare]

I am appreciate to see the naming format are sync . Does it support the danieru naming format either?

[scarlet pollen]

just give it a try. maybe it works, or maybe it doesn't

the desktop viewer is so good, just can't add character

[scarlet pollen]

i think you're the only one so far who actually likes that unnecessary function

[dusty badger]

Can someone help me with mods not working

Ik that its working for everyone else but idk what the latest changes are

[half bone]

what exactly is the issue? what do you see when you load a mod?

[dusty badger]

nothing

when i loaded it and logged in didnt work

idk what changed

[half bone]

so the character is invisible?

[dusty badger]

no

i eman

its just the normal character models

im just gonna reinstall the mod manager rq

and see if thats the problem

cuz idk if there were any changes in 0.3.1

[half bone]

deactivate the mods before reinstalling

[scarlet pollen]

wondering, which mods do you have activated? if you only have my Neon mod. that was a swap. You need to check the normal Neon

[dusty badger]

i used your rapi, marian and crown mod

and @scenic agate's little mermaid mod

imma loggin rq since i just got the mod manager installed

[half bone]

delete the addressables

before loggin in

[dusty badger]

and it worked

lmfao

[half bone]

noice

[dusty badger]

literally just redownloaded the mod manager

were there any changes in the 0.3.1 version i wasnt aware of?

[half bone]

in the last one month? no

[dusty badger]

strange

what about the last?

[half bone]

wdym?

[dusty badger]

last month

were there any changes?

[scarlet pollen]

NMM 0.3.1 hasn’t had any changes since release

[dusty badger]

damn

then idk what happened

welp mods are back and working so i aint complaining

[scarlet pollen]

its probably just a small bug in the new NMM that I overlooked

[dusty badger]

i never thought of it b4 but is NMM a collaboration work of you and danieru?

or are there more involved?

op found the credits for NMM nvm

[scarlet pollen]

NMM 0.3.0 was by Danieru. In 0.3.1, I added the preview dialog.

[dusty badger]

The new NMM was made only by me, but I used Danieru's code as a reference.

its literally same files just different folder created on same directory

[bitter spade]

I'd buy it but i avoid Denuvo like a plague for more than half a decade now

[fleet current]

@south dagger update hit, addressables directory has changed from com.unity.addressables to com.shiftup.addressables

[lament ruin]

nintendo worked together with denuvo to protect their new physical license cartridges

[fleet current]

NMM likely borked

[bitter spade]

I don't touch Nintendo either since i sold my switch 4 yrs back. Nobody actively screws their fans like Nintendo

[daring solstice]

wata?

[south dagger]

sure

[lament ruin]

they promised faster loading times with this shit

[south dagger]

will update in a few moments

just finishign up some work

oh

changed directory too?

[bitter spade]

Hopefully

[south dagger]

then will need a small patch to nmm or possibly a big patch if they fucked up other shit

[fleet current]

addressables directory changed, also all NAB directory organization has changed

[south dagger]

are the files sameish size as old files?

[bitter spade]

Didn't ShiftUp just piss on their entire PS5 base today by saying they need to pay 80$ entirely again if they want the Scarlet skin? 😂

[fleet current]

Now they're in \LocalLow\Unity\com_proximabeta_NIKKE\naps

[south dagger]

or smth totally different?

[fleet current]

I dunno

[south dagger]

eh ill launch and check

but yeh usually they change encryptions etc when theres collab

so that guy a few days ago wasnt wrong about nmm gonna get borked in a few days

[half bone]

didn't they say that they will receive the stuffs for free or something and they will make sure that people that got it early are never in a loss or something along that line

[bitter spade]

Link for that?

Hello, this is Hyung-Tae Kim, the director of Stellar Blade.

I’m reaching out with a heavy heart to share some thoughts about the Complete Edition and the GODDESS OF VICTORY: NIKKE costume code, hoping to connect with you all sincerely.

First, the bonus skin code for the mobile

X · Jun 10, 2025, 10:29 PM

I was speaking about this

[south dagger]

thats old tho bruh addressables not in there

only com.unity.addressables changed to com.shiftup.addressables, doesnt look like any encryption etc was changed

super simple to fix in nmm

u can extract the NMM .asar and then do a ctrl+h com.unity.addressables -> com.shiftup.addressables on the files in the asar and pack it again

but ye i guess ill do it and bump the version by .1

just have a few other things to do first

[scarlet pollen]

new centi. woah

[fleet current]

summer centi

too bad she's useless

[daring solstice]

nothing chage just the file organization?

so Nikke was just slow because it was disorganized?

[lament ruin]

centi is going on vacation this summer?

it used to be just liter

they had ai generate a new set of hair for centi that's why her head looks different but her face is still the same

[south dagger]

on a first look it seems like nothing relevant except a folder name change

but will confirm soon

[daring solstice]

yes, the game was just relocated from the aeb001dfac41dab1192aeo074efc3e21 to sub folders inside the folder naps

[fair copper]

any other file location changes we should worry about?

[lofty ridge]

I wonder if anything changes about skillcut and lobby folders

[fleet current]

not much, only that those folders don't exist anymore

[lofty ridge]

[small yoke]

https://tenor.com/view/ah-shit-here-we-go-again-ah-shit-cj-gta-gta-san-andreas-gif-13933485

lemme see how many stuff changed now

[daring solstice]

I actually think we need the V24 key

[daring solstice]

god

[small yoke]

so they changed all the __data files for unique random names like with aeb folder...

[lofty ridge]

Ohno

Well is that the only change

[small yoke]

and there are encrypted files mixed with non-encrypted now too

[lofty ridge]

I thought all the files were encrypted

What was non encrypted

[small yoke]

I'll need to rework all my scripts I guess

[daring solstice]

They will probably only encrypt what changes from now on

[small yoke]

I dropped a few files randomly onto AssetStudio, some loaded and some are encrypted

[daring solstice]

now all files belong to the same directory, but in separate folders

[crude grove]

Screenshot?

[crude grove]

Will have to reinstall them all now..

[small yoke]

let's wait for the updated catalogs so I can see their new paths and stuff, surely the catalogs still display that info right?

[daring solstice]

I believe they did this so the game only loads what is necessary for it to work, this will certainly reduce loading time

[half bone]

ah rip. was talking about this one, tho old news:

will need to open it in twitter to view the full text

[crude grove]

Oh

They're all just sorted alphabetically

Ah okay

Should be easy to find then

[crude grove]

Yeah they should

Not to worry

[small yoke]

__data containing the effects of the skills are mixed with aeb folder files I guess

[crude grove]

Yes

Parent folder names

Check from old

That might just be the name of the bundle now

Try it

[small yoke]

nope

[lofty ridge]

So all new

[crude grove]

Or the name of the child folder

[lofty ridge]

Good luck updating your stuff

All of it

[crude grove]

I won't stress

[small yoke]

I don't have those ones

[crude grove]

Let's just see the new decrypted db

[small yoke]

yea I got my hopes on the catalogs

[daring solstice]

These files were previously located in the Unity\com_proximabeta_NIKKE\ folder (the encrypted files were located in the aeb001dfac41dab1192aeo074efc3e21 folder)

now everthing is on sub folders of Unity\com_proximabeta_NIKKE\naps

[small yoke]

I know, now We need the catalog to find lobby/burst/effects like before

since no more __data and the parent folders

[daring solstice]

yes, now the folders need to be remapped because apparently everything has changed places :v

[small yoke]

I guess the day to nuke my parentfolders sheet has come finally

https://tenor.com/view/kekw-twitch-twitchtv-twitch-emote-kek-gif-19085736

[half bone]

hmm? this game doesn't use "__data" anymore for file names?

[crude grove]

No, just the direct bundle name

My guess is the child folder's names, which you saw in the catalog, will now be the direct names of the files

[half bone]

better imo. __data get's confusing

[small yoke]

yea that, __data default naming and parentfolder->subfolder is gone

my scripts for lobby/burst swappers were working with "__data" files by default so I need to remake them when Lorax can send the catalogs here

[small yoke]

doro tools dead atm

[karmic jacinth]

[small yoke]

https://tenor.com/view/steal-doro-gif-1027805425862452031

[obsidian star]

do we need new catalog

[small yoke]

right now all my swapper tools are dead because game changed a few stuffs again, I'll announce when they are ready to be used again
And to make mods yourself you can see this guide #1041208182539825182 message, first video is the info you need to mod the characters

[half bone]

yes and this time will take time most likely since its not just file names change this time, the entire folder locations and structures changed

[obsidian star]

well I guess i'll try to put the whole aeb folder to nau

[half bone]

well make a backup before that

[fossil glen]

some file no need NAU

[small yoke]

there is not aeb folder anymore, all the __data files are mixed with aeb folder files so you need to check them one by one

if you drop non-encrypted files onto NAU you will corrupt them

[potent steeple]

ah thanks for replying i followed the guide from the doc for making mod thinking it was for usage too. until i noticed the bottom section for using mods. guess ill wait for updated docs

[small yoke]

[half bone]

doc? the doc is not gonna be updated tho, which is written at the beginning/top of the doc.

all the updates will be done in the link given in the doc as well

[obsidian star]

yeah i did that last patch

[half bone]

https://nikke-modding-wiki.vercel.app/

[obsidian star]

well just i just skip what is corrupted

[scenic agate]

I just dropped NAU into the naps folder, and I can see everything — skillcutin, standing, aim, cover, etc.

[potent steeple]

ah okay

[small yoke]

wait what? so lobby/burst files are encrypted now?

[scenic agate]

No, it’s just that NAU’s processing gets skipped — it doesn’t break anything.

[small yoke]

[potent steeple]

could u give me an idea on how the folder structure works for the manager? im familiar with other tools like XXMI and its working but confused about nikkes. or a guide for that kinda thing

[cosmic quest]

no, i can open eva cutscene directly

[small yoke]

how you make NAU to skip files when it's processing a whole folder?

[half bone]

for managing various mods? well there are no folder stuctures for Nikke Mod Manager. infact all mods are just put in the "mods" folder directly, without any subfolder

after putting all the mods in the "mods" folder, open NMM, there are checkboxes beside every mods, so you can use those checkboxes to choose which mods you want to see and apply

[obsidian star]

it spits out a bunch of errors window and I just click okay

until it finishes

haven't tried on this patch yet

[scenic agate]

I think it only showed a warning. It just doesn’t get processed, even if you don’t do anything.

[obsidian star]

you still have to click a lot of "okay"

[cosmic quest]

nikkeassetunpacker.exe d -i "A:\update" -o "A:\dec"

[crude grove]

What's the source of this file

What is the name?

[scenic agate]

Maybe it’s a version difference. In 0.54, I didn’t even need to click anything.

[cosmic quest]

finally , i got 4700 decrypted bundles

[small yoke]

for me it's encrypting the non-encrypted files

[obsidian star]

is this browndust

[fleet current]

@south dagger we really need NMM to support lobby/burst , after these changes

[obsidian star]

[crude grove]

No

[scenic agate]

I think the lobby and burst can still be replaced just like before.

[crude grove]

Not encrypted
It's just that each patch would have to replace them

[obsidian star]

what is it

[crude grove]

Over the Horizon event name Nikke

[small yoke]

oh true, I forgot We can use command to specifically decrypt

lol thank you

[cosmic quest]

[obsidian star]

Output folder is optional, but if you want to decrypt everything in a folder and save it to other directory, you'll have to specify it.

For example: ./nikkeassetunpacker.exe d -i "D:\NIKKE\NIKKE\Game\Addressables\com_proximabeta\NIKKE\eb"

[fair copper]

it's real

lmao no wayingh

[obsidian star]

yeah real

[fair copper]

yet another school event i suppose it's a flight attendant

?

[crude grove]

@simple violet

[obsidian star]

@scarlet pollen what's this error

[obsidian star]

which bundle is that

[small yoke]

I dropped the folders on my repacker and ran the NAU decryptor script..... has been a long time I made the repacker that I forgot stuff like that

[fair copper]

i just dled every bundle related to overthehorizon

I combed through static data to see if the story was there but there wasnt any

[scarlet pollen]

change your foldername from "NIKKE/Game" to "NIKKE/game".. i forgot to make it case-insensitive... "G" -> "g" from game-folder

[crude grove]

new decrypted catalog?

[fair copper]

i gots them yes

theyre bingle style though unlike Lorax's

was it bingle? i forget

[small yoke]

https://tenor.com/view/spongebob-squarepants-begging-pretty-please-beg-on-your-knees-pray-for-mercy-gif-12194663770519806578

[fair copper]

i'd like to give a special thanks to Lorax, idk how to get the physics one though

[obsidian star]

[small yoke]

https://tenor.com/view/my-hero-academia-boku-no-hero-academia-anime-mha-bnha-gif-8084261017707817481

@fair copper from 1:16 is how We were getting the physics data before, but idk how Lorax and Bingle were generating the json with that data

that keydatastring is in the catalog_db if I remember well

[fair copper]

yeah this bundle should be on dp if im not wrong

[obsidian star]

fucking window doesn't let me change the file name

should have used arch

[fair copper]

someone in #datamine put her name in there, which is Sora

[half bone]

think I'll reinstall nikke as well. I dun have faith that the dev would delete unneeded files automatically

[dense ice]

Do you have to decrypt the db file to get these? I have never really poked around there too much.

[fair copper]

ye

[dense ice]

figures

[obsidian star]

isn't it impossible to decrypt

[half bone]

uuuh no. if it was, NMM wouldn't work, and the game wouldn't work either. since the game needs to be able to read those catalogs to know the location of the assets as well

[small yoke]

characters sheet updated, I'll be updating my tools now except the physics fixer
https://kxdekxde.github.io/nikke/characters.html

[half bone]

its just that very few people in this community has knowledge required to decrypt those
