Modded Assets Questions

[tulip dune]

the last 3 line I mean

[worldly oyster]

oh okay, that seems to be newer than the version Im using...
is there a link to that pinned somewhere?

[unique vale]

doubt itll work, but heres my folder zipped

[worldly oyster]

no, doesnt work weirdly

[unique vale]

couldnt remember tbh

[worldly oyster]

get the same error

[unique vale]

what about the fork ASset studio, the .net7 and 8 versions

hold on, lemme see something

[void pond]

you can use modded UABEA meanwhile

Let me do a quick video about it

[unique vale]

try opening this

[worldly oyster]

yeah modded uabea works for me too, except for the skel files... or at least it looks pretty weird

[tulip dune]

I can open this

[worldly oyster]

no problem opening this file

[unique vale]

its NAU or something that I got that can decrypt fine with NAU

and yall tried using this one?#1041208182539825182 message

[tulip dune]

Is UABEA a malware? why does Chrome block it...

[unique vale]

nah, thats just chrome security

[tulip dune]

Yep, done that, same error

[worldly oyster]

if I convert the hammering mod myself it works fine, It shows up in assetstudio, just the old mods I repacked dont seem to work...

[unique vale]

try now?

[tulip dune]

same error...

[unique vale]

[worldly oyster]

yeah it isnt all that bad, as mentioned modded uabea still works for exporting files

[tulip dune]

both El-Caudillo mod (2B) and this one https://mega.nz/folder/2LIXDbpZ#HQ3PRngwX6oj8d-IwnMEZg/folder/HThEyLpK (2B too but someone else) show the same error
but the Hammering seems to work just fine

[unique vale]

mmm, interesting got same error. with 2b you linked

[worldly oyster]

seems to have something to do with old mods that have been repacked

[unique vale]

yeah

[worldly oyster]

very strange 🤔

[tulip dune]

[unique vale]

now yall can delete all that extra stuff I posted. Dont need 50 versions of Assetstudio and NAU

[tulip dune]

so the only way is UABEA??

[worldly oyster]

it seems so

[tulip dune]

gotta wait for my hero then

[unique vale]

so we're back to square 1 with repacking old mods still

[tulip dune]

how to get the file tho?

[worldly oyster]

plugins then export texture

and export .txt on the atlas/skel files

[void pond]

How to export assets with UABEA (modded)

[tulip dune]

Thanks

[void pond]

[tulip dune]

Is there a way to turn these 3 files into .Lpk or Wpk tho

this seem to be the guide for PC Live2dviewerEX but the android one only read Lpk file it seems

[void pond]

@toxic crypt got the AssetStudio working I think, Idk which one is it

[worldly oyster]

https://tenor.com/view/guy-long-hair-mustache-magic-shia-labeouf-gif-17741293

[toxic crypt]

What's the topic?

[void pond]

AssetStudio not working for some of the new files decrypted with new NAU

[toxic crypt]

some? give example so i can test in the AS's I have

[unique vale]

#1041208182539825182 message This 2B thats liked doesnt seem to work when decrypted with new NAU and loaded into AssetStudio

[toxic crypt]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/610708732220932097.webp?size=48&quality=lossless&name=ThinKenobi

mhm...

[void pond]

AssetStudio needs an update to work with NET 8 or something?

[toxic crypt]

Original file works tho

idk why modded has issues

[unique vale]

repacked weirdly

[void pond]

I mean We can export with UABEA with no issues but still... AS was cool

[toxic crypt]

I mean, you still can use AS

just for some reasons the modded file you gave me didn't load

[void pond]

a few more modded files don't work as well so yeah, the problem is to load modified files for some reason

[toxic crypt]

imma check my mods

[unique vale]

well i mean, whos gonna want to load modified files for the parts aside for using w/ live2dviewer

[toxic crypt]

Idk what El-Caudillo did during encryption of his mods that they can't load after decrypting, but my mods load perfectly fine in AS

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/956064992543797298.webp?size=48&quality=lossless&name=shrug~1

[tulip dune]

still sad that I have to spend 5$ to see Nikke ass on my pc/phone

[unique vale]

a price to pay for salvation

[hot night]

why is it when i download stuff sometimes it doesnt go into my downloads folder

[uncut fox]

Give MEGA permission to download multiple files

There should be a prompt

[teal jackal]

Yo, is there a way to get one of the old physics fix mods to work now?

[uncut fox]

Trivial

[uneven gate]

yah i remember we talked about this a while ago

and then my pc died

(got a new one)

welp time to fck up my game

[worldly oyster]

so if anyone needs my modified PNG files just DM me, skel and atlas files from the unmodded bundle files can be used with them, that shouldnt be a problem

or well... just use uabea to export the png files

[uneven gate]

@valid moon whenever i click and drag the mod file into the nikkeassestupdater it doesnt make a new file

like i noticed in the video that whenever u do that it makes an AssetStudioGUI file

nothing happens for me

[void pond]

Check if u have net framework 8 installed and net core runtime

https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download/dotnet/3.1/runtime

[uneven gate]

installed it

still nothing

maybe i should the x64 version?

i got the x86

does it matter

[void pond]

yeah, could be that 🤔

[uneven gate]

ok ill install x64

[void pond]

NAU show a message on a cmd screen (that dissapear instantly tho) telling you what is missing to make it work
That's how I knew I was missing something else to install

[uneven gate]

should i install the 3.1 one or the 8.0 runtime one cuz im getting a prompt about that one

[uneven gate]

the thign with that is

when i click and drag the mod into it, a command screen flashes, but nothing actually happens

[void pond]

That flash screen is telling you you're missing something to install

[uneven gate]

i installed everything tho

at least i tihnk i did

[void pond]

install that one
And then look for NET framework 8 on Google
I think the name is SDK 8 now 🤔

[tulip dune]

Anyone use Live2DviewerEX?? I was trying to config the skin with the robot to be default and let it be on phone but can't do so...

like, I can set the skin here

but when I loaded it as .json folder to my phone I can't choose the skin and bring that robot out

[uneven gate]

lets GO a bundle file has been made now

THANKS

[void pond]

I think mr.miagi knows something about wallpaper creation, He made Rupee and Emma

[uneven gate]

its not exactly a AssetStuidoGUI file

but i tihnk that works right

[tulip dune]

actually nvm I did it

thanks btw

[void pond]

https://tenor.com/view/approved-im-doing-me-im-doing-my-part-gif-12931143

[uneven gate]

ok next thing ahaha, so in the video

he said to have the old and new file?

like there are two mods he clicks and drags into the nikkeassetunpacker

like im trying to fix one mod right now

how do i explain this lol

[void pond]

Yeah, basically open old mod with AssetStudio or UABEA and extract skel+atlas+png from it.
Then open the not modded file with UABEA and import the skel+atlas+png you extracted previously into the not modded file
After that the process to save and compress is like gjopin video

[uncut fox]

Share your lpk

[tulip dune]

This is how we set skin in Live2dviewerEX btw, and the file for the L2d ready for use as Json folder for the app I spent 2 hrs making this

[tulip dune]

You can't use LPk as a free user it need spine dlc which basically is a full buy

but idk about a Json I just shared tho

probably need spine dlc too but you could try

[uneven gate]

ok so i should go into the main game files and get that file

[void pond]

yep, copy and put both old modded file and new original file in some folder for faster access for repack

[uneven gate]

ok awesome

ok so

sorry

lol

open up the modded file with AssetStuido

and then click and drag the original file in it?

or vise versa

just need to make sure lol

[tulip dune]

There was a weird glitch of light under her skirt cuz I set it to set skin every repeat, fixed now, set only at start

[void pond]

AssetStudio is to extract the files first (.atlas + .skel + .png)

Atlas + Skel + Texture2D

[uneven gate]

ok another thing

the mod file name and the OG file name are the same

so it overlaps

like i had clicked and dragged the mod file into nikkeassetunpacker

and a file was created, but when i clicked and dragged the OG file, it replaced it

[valid moon]

just rename the mod file then

[tulip dune]

Anyone using this? does it work as a free user to load Json file instead of LPK??

[uncut fox]

It probably won't

[void pond]

oh right lol, in that case I guess it's better to just extract the modded files first and then just put the modded (atlas+skel+png) file along with the og file to repack

[uncut fox]

For a free user

Import/downloading models is limited

[valid moon]

bruh

[uncut fox]

You need to watch ads to get "points" to download/import

there is a cap

[void pond]

I got a headache after to read what I said

[uneven gate]

yah i ddint get it

💀

ill try renaming the mod file

like gjopin said

[tulip dune]

yeah, ik that. Was just expecting maybe there a way that could somehow avoid that since it's Json not Lpk. Not surprise tho XD

[void pond]

That could be enough

[uneven gate]

also gjopin no offense but u be going too fast in that video

idk what im doing and u going so fast

ur going at a speed where u already know what ur doing and not at a speed where someone clueless can easily follow

like myself

ok renaming worked

2 seperate files were created

[valid moon]

first complaint about being too fast

skill issue perhaps?

[uneven gate]

im just the first one to speak up

do u think this works for those special mods from bugsbunnay

where he pulls models from things like brown dust

u know im just gonna try a normal mod first

[void pond]

I think those files got a few more things modified so only Bugsbunnay knows what to do 🤔

[uneven gate]

😭

gotcha thanks

ill try a normal mod

im trying those use those skin swaps mods mostly

like christmas emma on default

stuff like that

should that be fine?

[void pond]

yeah skin swaps can be done like the video

[valid moon]

itll work

bugs bunnay already made the special swaps nikke compatible so

[uneven gate]

can it take a while to load

i click and drag the mods into assetviewer and it stays on 1 outta 7 for a while

nvm

[uneven gate]

ok i think i did it

lets test in gaeemm

[uncut fox]

Share mod if it works

[uneven gate]

😭

nothin

😭

this is for the brown dust model ones

[valid moon]

you repacking on the same character?

game didnt redownload the original file so you just made a mistake somewhere

and not any software issue

[uneven gate]

dam really

im sure i followed that video exactly

[valid moon]

my video doesnt include the steps for skin swaps

so unless you tried to repack his mod onto another character

idk what went wrong

you sure you got the right r unit?

[uneven gate]

yah this mod is for Idollflower

[valid moon]

🤷‍♂️

[uneven gate]

maybe these special swaps are weird

[valid moon]

nah they shouldnt be

aside from being from another game

[uneven gate]

and ur saying there are more steps for a skin swap, like putting emma christmas skin on her default

[valid moon]

yar

[uneven gate]

yee those are the ones id use the most

guess im outta luck then

😭

idk why the special ones didnt work

all good tho

thanks for the help regardless guys

[valid moon]

its yust renaming stuff

like character code

[uneven gate]

stuff like what

is there a list maybe

[valid moon]

yes

actually

for skin swaps you dont need list

[uneven gate]

[valid moon]

not for character codes

file name list in pins

basically same shit as repacking but you change skin’s character code name from cXXX_XX to cXXX_00

for the name and inside the atlas

[uneven gate]

ok im gonnna do the normal steps of repacking and then when i get to the part that involves asset viewer ill ask some stuff

[valid moon]

k

[uneven gate]

ok before what about things like the shooting and cover poses

same changes?

cuz from the file names i cant tell which one goes on her 2d model, cover model or shooting model

[valid moon]

what

it literally tells you

[uneven gate]

the files names are daf962a57040780254e8ff23bb23400e, 029c7cb1d63055ecebe40df9775ebc13 and 3ff847aa7778aca27b40c86effa9261d

theres no indication saying which one goes to her 2d model

the cover

or the shooting

and it doesnt say on the mega file either

[valid moon]

decrypt and open them in asset studio

[uneven gate]

ok i was asking if its the same steps even with things like cover and shooting

before going into this

so it is

[valid moon]

why wouldnt it be

[uneven gate]

idk

jus making sure

since it shows me in asset studio

ill do the 2d model one first

and see if that works

before doing cover and shooting

[valid moon]

they’re all 2d 😭

[uneven gate]

no i mean like

the actual 2d model

u see in lobel

lobby

and character viewer

[valid moon]

ok so lobby/idle/standing

[uneven gate]

yee

ok

on the asset viewer

where does it tell me that its the lobby one

i mean i feel like i could assume

from the picture

lol

but is there a way to know or do i just assume from the pics

[valid moon]

if standing itll just be character code

if cover itll say cXXX_XX_cover

same for aim

except replace cover with aim

[tulip dune]

Can anyone get the 2B standing texture for me?

Like right now

Can't access the pc now but was thinking of something great if it works

[uneven gate]

@valid moon

ok

this where i am at now

where exacly do i find this code

[valid moon]

on the names??

bro what

[uneven gate]

uhhhh

like is it under skel

[valid moon]

🗿

so you know how the names say c and then some numbers

like

cXXX_XX

[uneven gate]

like these

?

[valid moon]

yes

do you see the part that every single name has

[uneven gate]

ok i thought u had click on of them and change sometihng within there or something

yah the c090_01

they all have that

[valid moon]

no assetstudio is just a extractor

to edit shit you have to export then do in another app

[uneven gate]

gotcha

ok so what do i do with the c090_01

[valid moon]

after extracting everything like the video

rename to c090_00

the two numbers on the right is the skin

00 default

[uneven gate]

gotcha gotcha

[valid moon]

renaming 4 things

to make skin swap work

[uneven gate]

so i rename all of the c090_01 to c090_00

[valid moon]

all 4

[uneven gate]

there is 7?

[valid moon]

what

[uneven gate]

on the SS

there is 7 different c090_01

[valid moon]

didnt you watch the video

[uneven gate]

i did yee

[valid moon]

you should know that i only exported 3 things then

[uneven gate]

ok so change the name of those 3 things not 4

[valid moon]

nah you rename 4 things

[uneven gate]

yah probably later in the video

[valid moon]

no

rename everything before putting that shit in uabea

[uneven gate]

got it

[valid moon]

you can open the atlas file in notepad

rename character code in there too

feel like i shouldnt have to remind you this but make sure to save the atlas after editing

[uneven gate]

ok so go ahead and change these

to _00

and the one in texture2D as well

[valid moon]

yes

[uneven gate]

and then everything is the same as in the video

[valid moon]

yes

[uneven gate]

got it

ok we are in UABEA now

these say c090_01

is that fine?

or do i change em here too

@valid moon

[valid moon]

mb

did you maximize your uabea wtf

you opened the wrong file

that’s for her skin

you’re skin swapping so you open the default emma file

@uneven gate

its like how you repack using the new file instead of old file

[uneven gate]

Bro is that what I'm doing wrong?

Do I have them backwards

Maybe that's why the other one didn't work either?

Is it ok if I record what I'm doing and send it to you?

[valid moon]

sure

[uneven gate]

Sick thanks

I'll start from the beginning

I'm gonna redo the special swap one

Just to make sure I'm doing it right

And then go on to the Emma skin swap

[uneven gate]

ok im just gonna edit the video down rn since i go back and look at the video quite a bit lol

[uneven gate]

exporitng rn

ok this is all the steps i took

@valid moon

hopefully u can spot potential problems cuz it still didnt work in game

[fierce wren]

i cant even tell if you saved the texture png in UABE, it seems like you mean to but may open the atlas window next instead

[uneven gate]

hmm the video is kinda scuffed with all the jumps huh, maybe i try to record one clean run

[fierce wren]

also try changing texture format and filter mode "ARGB32" and "Trilinear" has shown me some sucess

[fierce wren]

when you load the texture make sure to hit save in the same window. idk if there was a cut or the window closed but i didnt see that after you loaded the png, in fact i didnt even see you load the png it kinda just jumps

[uneven gate]

yah mb there was a cut there

but i did save

[valid moon]

this shit doesnt matter

[valid moon]

looks like you did everything right

send me the mod

ill try and repack

[uneven gate]

thanks !

ill go on to try the emma one nex

next

the skin swap

the file

for the mod

[valid moon]

wait is that the one you deleted from the video

or did you redownload

[uneven gate]

i downloaded a completelyy new one yah

[valid moon]

ok

give me a sec

[uneven gate]

gotcha

ill hold off on doing the emma one then

cuz i kinda wanna record for that one too

since it is a bit different

[fierce wren]

@uneven gate working there ya go

[uneven gate]

brah whaaa

what did u do

what did u do differently?

[valid moon]

yeah doing it regularly doesnt work

[fierce wren]

i took the clean mod you download, extracted the stuff, saw that in assetstudio it had the ARGB32 and Trilinear i mentioned and just changed it in UABE with my own iDoll file with the modded texture, atlas and skel

[fierce wren]

i just double check what format the texture is in in assetstudio before changing it in uabe

[uneven gate]

any chance for a video? ahahaaaa

if its not too much to ask

[valid moon]

ohhhh

so that shit does matter?

[fierce wren]

i think

[valid moon]

alr hold on let me try different format and filter

[fierce wren]

maybe less so blindly changing and matching format files

[uneven gate]

I wonder if this one is a weird case or if it's just like this for every mod repackage now

Imagine having to redo the video

💀

[valid moon]

nah shouldnt be

yeah i got it working after changing the shit

probably special case since this is from a different game

ive never had something like this happening when repacking nikke stuff

lwk that video does need a redo i was pretty sleepy then

[uneven gate]

Yah and maybe if it's not too much to ask, maybe do a skin swap video too?

Since it is a bit different

Also lastly, you know those mods that take for example, summer neon and put it on regular neon

[fierce wren]

ok

[uneven gate]

Are those different too

I'm guessing so

[valid moon]

no

same as skin swap

[uneven gate]

Oh sick sick

[valid moon]

making a whole new video just for some extra small steps is too much work

but if anyone else wants to do it

[uneven gate]

What about those mods that take the gacha skins and put it on the default of the unit

Same as skin swaps also?

[valid moon]

so can you do skin swaps using the skin swap method?

absolutely

🗿

[uneven gate]

I thought maybe gacha skins were weird idk

Every possible question

I ask

Rather ask a dumb question than blow something up

[valid moon]

why dont you use your brain instead of asking the same question over and over

shrimple thinking

[uneven gate]

Similar response

[uneven gate]

Thanks man !

[valid moon]

itll look like my video but with these settings instead

yust saying

[uneven gate]

Ahh I see

@fierce wren hey man you might not have to do the video any seems like it's the same as gjo but a simple settings change

[valid moon]

my fault not with these settings

bc7 will be argb32

filter mode trilinear

[uneven gate]

Gotchaa

[fierce wren]

maybe just add instructions to match filter mode and texture format to original unmodded formats if changing to a modded one

[valid moon]

only bugs bunnay ports other games to nikke

so

dont think it matters

[uneven gate]

I think the one of the last questions I have relates to this

This is when I was doing the skin swap mod

Gjo said I opened the wrong file which is fine

[valid moon]

yeah you wont have any problems with skin swapping

yust make sure to rename character codes

[fierce wren]

i need to know the game cause this shit slaps

[uneven gate]

Brown dust 2

There a quite a few he has done

I absolutely love the game swap ones

But 99% of em are broken now

So gotta repackage

[valid moon]

fucking hate repacking

[uneven gate]

Yah I understand why they aren't updated having to do that for every mod every once in a while feels like pain

How often do mods break? Cuz it doesn't seem like it's every update

Game updated for elegg and all my working mods are still there

[valid moon]

every collab for starters

idk they change encryption whenever they feel like it i guess

[toxic crypt]

They didn't need to change files again, that's why they work

[uneven gate]

So it's essentially every big update

[valid moon]

yeah

[uneven gate]

And collabs

Gotcha

[toxic crypt]

But expect something to happen on D update

My senses are tingling

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/394889166132871180.gif?quality=lossless&size=48

[valid moon]

shut up

dont say anytyhing

[uneven gate]

D update hmmmm

[valid moon]

it will just be a simple character addition

with perhaps some renames

[toxic crypt]

And so we thought with SBS

[valid moon]

what happened with sbs

forgor

[toxic crypt]

They added new keys to encryption. Then the same happened to Valentine's event

[valid moon]

yeah but only some mods needed repacking right

a few v4s still lived

[toxic crypt]

Yeah, my XLudmilla mod stood proud

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/907325452929101927.png?quality=lossless&size=48

[valid moon]

the new files used v5 prob but game still read v4

so who car

[uneven gate]

I actually tried to install the xlud mod after the update and it didn't work

The one that makes the dress transparent

At least now I have an idea to fix it lol

[toxic crypt]

Look at them get rid of v4 in 2 months on 1.5 update

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1006647334861557860.png?quality=lossless&size=48

[valid moon]

this update fucked up a good amount of mods

but yk

fixable

[uneven gate]

Thank goodness, dude once I get these skin swaps thats all I'll need, awesome I'll report back how it went or if anything went wrong and I'll record the process in case something does go wrong (most likely)

Thanks for the help !

[fierce wren]

Let me know if ya need help with any others I can help out later

[uneven gate]

Awesome thanks !

[void pond]

I would like to see the steps in a video too, I want to use bugsbunnay BD2 swaps on my LQ PC files but Idk how to do it properly

[uneven gate]

ok im gonna record myself trying to do a skin swap now

[valid moon]

read chat

[void pond]

this #1041208182539825182 message ?

[fierce wren]

Yea

[void pond]

so just replacing skel atlad and texture like always but with those options for the texture?

[fierce wren]

I can’t figure out how to record my screen not active window so I’ll try later video wise but yea

[fierce wren]

Yes

Just double check formats match

[void pond]

I'll try

[void pond]

https://tenor.com/view/thanos-endgame-avengers-gone-ashes-gif-14019029

[uneven gate]

ok this is where i have a question with these skin swap mods

towards the end

when i click info on UABEA, it will say c090_01 instead of c090_00

is that fine?

[void pond]

for skin swap the process is the same but you need to rename the .png file (example c090_01 to c090_00) and then open the .atlas.txt file and rename the line "c090_01.png" to "c090_00.png" as well

[uneven gate]

the .skel file too right

to c090_00

[void pond]

nono

atlas and png only

[uneven gate]

i was told to change all of em

prety sure

[void pond]

not the skel file, atlas is enough

and idk if you can modify the skel file with a text editor tho

last time I did that I broke the file

[uneven gate]

so i should just go ahead and rename that to c090_01.skel?

[void pond]

ohhh you mean the name lmao

yeah the filename of atlas skel and the png

[valid moon]

wait isnt he skin swapping

[uneven gate]

ye

[uneven gate]

alright kool

thats what i was told too

at 45 sec mark at the video i go and change everything

to _00

[void pond]

actually gjopin is right, you don't need to rename the filename since you supose to use the original filenames ( c090_00, etc)

[valid moon]

mfs on the wrong file again

[uneven gate]

i swear i did the right one

on the video

where u put the mod into the thingy

[valid moon]

if you're skin swapping to default uabea should show cXXX_00

cause that's the character code of the file

[uneven gate]

u know how in the video u put two files in the asset unpacker, and first u put in has all those reading key file prompts and the 2nd one doesnt

and that 2nd one is the one u open

thats what im doing

unless its different in this case

[void pond]

you did the right steps when you extracted the skin files, but you need to open the default Emma after

and import skin files into default Emma file with UABEA

[uneven gate]

ok so im supposed to snag the default emma files from the main game files

you know i thought but again i didnt wanna go wandering off

cuz it has been said its the same process besides the changing the .skel atlas and png names

[void pond]

yeah, for default Emma you don't need to extract anything, just drop default decrypted Emma file onto UABEA and import Emma skin atlas+skel+texture

[uneven gate]

so i didnt wanna grab anything extea

[valid moon]

ignore what it says about keys and shit

[valid moon]

you didnt??

[uneven gate]

nah

[valid moon]

💀

im fucking done

[void pond]

[uneven gate]

i thought changing the file code to _00 is what put it on her default

[valid moon]

so what happens to her default file then

we have 2 files on her default

you think thatll work?

[void pond]

nah you need to modify default Emma using Emma skin files

[uneven gate]

uhhhh

yah that makes sense but again i was told to just follow the video besides a few extra steps in my defense

[void pond]

you are doing it right until the part before UABEA

After that you need to decrypt default Emma files and drop them onto UABEA

[uneven gate]

ok so i also need to toss the default emma files into the assetunpacker as well

click and drag it

[void pond]

nope

[uneven gate]

ahh sick

i just open the default emma files with UABEA and then change some stuff around?

[void pond]

yeah, import Emma skin .atlas.txt + .skel.txt + .png where they must to go first

btw you forgot a plus step with the .atlas.txt
You need to open the .atlas.txt and rename the first line (c090_01.png) to the corresponding name for the texture (c090_00.png)

[valid moon]

cool he didnt do that either

[uneven gate]

i just wanna make clear i got it when it comes to changing the .atlas png to _00

im still goin

[void pond]

it's just practice to remember the steps

[uneven gate]

ok i tihnk i got it

now import the files you exported previously there over default Emma stuff

[uneven gate]

[valid moon]

lets try it

fingers crossed

50% im hit with a monstrosity jumpscare

LETS GOOOOO

THANKS FOR THE HELP GUYS

bro i got so much more I wanna do

[uneven gate]

will come very mch in handy

i got it just now kxd thanks

thanks for the help guys !

lowkey im gonna find the old office emma skin swap and use that one

repackage it

[void pond]

that is _02 so it's the same process, good luck

[valid moon]

saying repackage looks weird

[uneven gate]

im gonna fix her it

THANKS GUYS got fixing to do

[uneven gate]

and offer still stands

[void pond]

https://tenor.com/view/greed-introduction-its-a-pleasure-anime-gif-9540087

[valid moon]

2 dollars is not worth the time it takes to learn how to repack

doing it yourself is easier and faster

than asking someone else

🗿

[uneven gate]

its not greed, its giving people a service

[uneven gate]

ok $1.50

some people dont wanna go through all of that, so im giving them a way that they dont have to

(joking ofc)

unless

😳

[valid moon]

whoever pays money to get a mod repacked is dumb as fuck

[uneven gate]

@uncut fox

oh btw

u asked to share when done

here u go

the file for the brown dust swap

on IDollFlower

thanks to Ognir

[uneven gate]

Bro I ALREADY know which I'm doing next, summer neon on regular neon

But fr if anyone wants their mod repackaged lemme know just let me get a little good at it first

[fierce wren]

Just keep the mentality that skin swaps will prob be the reason mods disappear or become impossible with people circumventing paying. Creating your own? That’s different but I’m wary of any skin swaps now due to that

[uneven gate]

Very true I've already thought about that too, but modding stuff rn isn't popular enough for that to be an issue

Like it doesn't affect their bottom dollar a lot rn

Hopefully it can stay that way

Cuz yah with this I pretty much don't have to try to summon summer neon anymore

Cuz she's bad and id only want her for the lobby

But at least rn it's not widespread enough to be an issue to nikke devs

Hopefully it stays that way

[tulip dune]

Will it be bad if I combine the mod of 2 person and public it in the modded asset?
like... one of it was free, and one of it was also free but to be the full bottomless version need to be paid but I edit the free version of him to be nude by using the free version of him and free version of another

I can give them credit tho

[fierce wren]

might b stepping on toes. I'd double check with each mod creator first, but also keep in mind its not guaranteed you'll be able to open their modded files to extract the necessary assets.

I know seireiko has a blanket "do not" kinda thing but asking is more important

[tulip dune]

I have done the mod, finished it but still thinking whether it is okay if I post it or not. btw who is seireiko? which mega? I open too many of it and forgot XD is he the only paid modder in here?

[tulip dune]

here

Just texture editing XD

cuz his mod have the 2Bussy but it's the default skin which have skirt so I got that body and paste it on this guy mod which isn't much just a small see throu but it's the no skirt skin

[uneven gate]

ok so say a mod is older and none of the old file names match the new files name

could i like, change it to the new one

and it would still work or nah

[uneven gate]

another one done

didnt even need the video this time

more special swaps bugs bunnay plz

🙏 😭

again appreciate all the help!

[uneven gate]

ok last one lol

got the full shabang this time cover and all

tyty

[heavy matrix]

Afaik, other games can detect file manipulation and ban the players... Why nikke devs don't do that?

[teal jackal]

Won't you share it with us?

😦

[tulip lagoon]

it costs money

They have a anti cheat already

Just not one that compares file sizes for example

[tranquil gate]

what is the devs' stance on the matter tho? even if they cant detect it

[tulip lagoon]

No comment

Its against ToS of the game

So

[heavy matrix]

You guys still use the modded skins

[tulip lagoon]

Not anymore

[heavy matrix]

They still make modded skins

[tulip lagoon]

Yes

[heavy matrix]

At least someone uses them

What about them?

[tulip lagoon]

Wdym

[teal jackal]

As long as people make sure to not parade around their user ID while showing off mods, everything should be fine

[uneven gate]

oh sure i can share lol

[grizzled trellis]

@heavy matrix it's simple. Just thing about masturbating, mod is like masturbating. As long as you watch porn and fap in your room, nobody is gonna arrest you for beating your meat. But if you fap in public, you might get shot

A boomer like us can understand this, but for some genz kid that want some fame, they can just post mod into official community

Honestly i havent seen any contribute of genz to the world beside whiteknight, self-onlyfan, woke and gay-shits

[heavy matrix]

Don't blame the kids lol

It's their parents and teachers

They corrupted their children's minds

[heavy matrix]

Many people still use them...
I know mods like gamebanana mods can't get you banned because they don't do anything with the game folders, but here we're literally replacing the game files.

[valid moon]

gamebanana is just a place to post mods, not a format type

ofc some mods on there can get you banned

reason people mod nikke is that there's so little risk and high reward

their anti cheats only detect stuff like dmg boosters and macros

the only way you're getting banned from modding is by someone showing your uid and the mods in some kind of media

which is pretty easy to avoid

[heavy matrix]

Oh I was talking about genshin skin mods, they are not added inside game files... I know there are some other mods that can even control the client

[heavy matrix]

This is what I wanted to know

[valid moon]

genshin doesnt detect file changes cause 3dmigoto tells the game to use the modded shit instead of the original

so no file changes or anything

not all mods on gamebanana have an external client like genshin for modding

nikke doesnt need one since they dont check the asset files

[heavy matrix]

I see

Time to use some mods

https://tenor.com/view/hehehe-gif-18542018

[teal jackal]

So i tried using a friend's laptop to repack an old skin swap and did exactly what @valid moon's written guide and video showed (except the optional editing step) and for some reason the files come out as 1 byte files after compression

What could be causing that?

And I am sure the files are not corrupted because I used to use them before the recent update and they worked fine

[valid moon]

did you get uabea from bingle

uabea modded

link in the same post as nau

github uabea doesnt work

[teal jackal]

Yes

The one in the guide

Download straight from the link

Downloaded*

I followed it step by step, same with the video you sent

[valid moon]

when you clicked compress did a text box pop up saying you're compressing the original bundle

[teal jackal]

I was pulling my hair out not finding out what I was doing wrong

[valid moon]

actually idk if that matters

video helps a lot

[teal jackal]

No
It showed the exact same as it did for you in the video

[valid moon]

do it again and record it?

[teal jackal]

I made quite a few tries, the ones I did and the file came out at a regular size, it would just blip Doro out of existence

And when it's 1 byte, the game would redownload the file

[teal jackal]

Literally if I open her tab in the game, it shows nothinf

[valid moon]

1 byte or 1 kb

unrelated question

[teal jackal]

Does that matter?

[valid moon]

nah

both would already show the file being broken anyways

[teal jackal]

Because it showed in bytes on pc, and 1 kb on my phone when I transferred them

[teal jackal]

Yeah because the original files were 4 mb, 5 mb, and 38 mb

I know we're comptessing them, but ain't no way it's compressing them this well lmao

I know it's dumb but I just really like doro's gacha skin and I want to find a way to work it out before they update the game again so I can just do it by myself

[teal jackal]

I can't because it was my friend's pc and he isn't at my house
It would need to be in like 2 weeks

[valid moon]

you dont have your own pc?

[teal jackal]

But he saw me do what I was doing, so if I can find out my mistake, he can repack the mod for me

Nope

[valid moon]

rough

[teal jackal]

Yeah I got laid off from my job before I saved up enough for one

I have a crappy old laptop that runs windows 7

I tried doing it from there

No dice

[valid moon]

why

same issue or what

[teal jackal]

UABEA has x64 architecture, but the laptop is x32

Someone uploaded an x32 version on github

[valid moon]

ah

too bad nikketools is dead

[teal jackal]

But it wouldn't even boot up for some reason

[valid moon]

dayum

[teal jackal]

Yeah
That just goes to show how many things I tried

Last ditch effort would be my steam deck

But linux is just wayyyyy too complicated for me to work with when it comes to something like this

[valid moon]

steam deck 😭

[dusk dragon]

Why do skin swap mads from or before january don't work anymore? I used to be able use these mods a few months ago but they dont work anymore. Did they change something? sorry if its a common question

[teal jackal]

It's where one of my playthroughs of nier was

The other 3 were once on my old pc, one on ps4, and one on switch

[valid moon]

outdated

[teal jackal]

That's not just a common question, that is literally what we're talking about rn

I was trying to fix the problem you and I are having

[dusk dragon]

are the modders going to update it to make it work?

[teal jackal]

But I'm facing issues

[dusk dragon]

so people still havent figured out a way to make it work yet ig

[teal jackal]

They have...

Check the pins

[dusk dragon]

"NikkeTools updated with support for NKABv2, re-encryption will cause v2 files to drop back to v1 but still load fine" this one?

[teal jackal]

Not only does bro strut in here asking questions without bothering to check the pins, he also wants us to show him which pin exactly

Damn. That's next level

[valid moon]

you have problems with repacking, he just has outdated mods

[toxic crypt]

oooh, so that's why I couldn't compress... good to know

[teal jackal]

Yeah, but I was trying to be friendly lmao

[valid moon]

bruh what

[toxic crypt]

do not worry about it

[dusk dragon]

sorry im just not used to the modding scene, i just use mods here and there

[teal jackal]

Gjopin the goat

Make sure to thank him

[teal jackal]

But either way, it does not excuse the fact htat his video is literally the second most recent pin and you still somehow managed to miss it.

[dusk dragon]

I don't use discord much so its hard for me to navigate, All the people i talk to are on other platforms. The only reason i got in here is because of mods which i just download and copy paste.Thats the extent of my experience with using mods.

[valid moon]

i dont think its a navigation issue

[dusk dragon]

I was checking the pinned messages tab on this channel for the video but didnt know that I needed to go to "Modded Assets Discussion" channel pinned messages to find the video. Even then i would not have realized that a video titled 'repacking tutorial' would be for a mod user, I thought it would be for mod makers to make modded assets work for the game. Again dont have much experience with mods so i just asked you guys for the vid/help.

[uncut fox]

check the top pin

[dusk dragon]

Yes I did thank you

[teal jackal]

Yeah it only took you 24 hours to do that lmao

[strange fox]

ok, so until now i could extract the png, atlas and skel, files from a char i want to edit. The png file is "easy" to edit, save and export, but is there a way to modify the skel and atlas files? lets say i want to "create" my own movement for a char. I looked up to the pinned message and download almost all the tools mentioned, i even bought the l2d+spline from steam 😐 but i couldn't find a way to edit those files, or is not even possible to do it?

afaik the atlas file is to just define the movable parts of the char in the png file, and i suppose the skel file is for the movement?

[valid moon]

300 dollar software

[strange fox]

if this program can "read" and play the skel,atlas,png files, then it means that it have a way to decode it right? if i reverse engineer the program would there be a way to understand how the process is? and probably modify it? or is there something im missing?

[valid moon]

spine pro lets you edit the skel

its the only thing that can

idk much about it you gotta ask someone who does have it

[tulip lagoon]

lot of software can render spine assets, including my own apps. So it would prob be easier to learn the binary structure from the runtime sourcecodes, instead of trying to decompile something. The unity runtimes also have a skeletonbaker to convert assets to non native format. It' functionality is limited though.
I can modify stuff without spine pro, though it's runtime based, and I can't be baked back into the original files.

I'm not interested in developing a converter, but if you are taking the challenge... good luck. I wouldn't recommend it though...
Don't get me wrong, I'm not intend to insult you or anything, but judging from what you wrote, it doesn't look like you have any clues about spine

[strange fox]

as you said idk anything about it , but i would really like to learn about it, i have some wild ideas for the future

[tulip lagoon]

not to mention editing the skeleton animations also require a proper editor environment. So figure out the binary arrays, doesn't help you really
... unless you also deal with a converter to .fbx or something

[tulip lagoon]

depends, if you wanna make actual ingame mods, I'd say open the wallet.
Rendering externally with unity allows modifications without spine, but it's not exactly comfortable, and has some limitations

[strange fox]

for now the only thing i can spend is time, once i get a job i would consider doing it, probably at the end im gonna buy it but for now i would go my way while i can

[tulip lagoon]

y the dorothy mod got removed 🤔, too much over the borderline?

[uncut fox]

Piss not allowed

[tulip lagoon]

I wasn't aware of that, only about the blacklist

[uncut fox]

#nsfw-rules message rule 3

[tulip lagoon]

got it

[tulip walrus]

what folder do i put the replace lobby in ? is the same folder as the mod skins folder?

[valid moon]

different folder

[uncut fox]

No

[valid moon]

whar

[uncut fox]

Miagi uses the terminology lobby for standing files

[valid moon]

oh

lil piss boy

[valid moon]

what mod you talking about

[uncut fox]

If it's wallpaper, it is different

If not, then same folder

[valid moon]

all mods go in aeb folder unless explicitly stated

[tulip walrus]

Nero_MOD_Lobby_Swap_Var2.zip this one

[valid moon]

different folder!!1

[uncut fox]

That's by Kx

[valid moon]

smh

[uncut fox]

It is wallpaper

[valid moon]

he literally tells you where to put it

[uncut fox]

So you can just drop it according to the folder path

You don't have to think about it

[tulip walrus]

im blind 🥲

[valid moon]

nah its ok

[tulip walrus]

got it tho

[valid moon]

nikke modding community known for not being able to read

[tulip walrus]

thanks for the help 😂 👍🏿

[torpid bane]

most if not all of the spine viewer tools use packages/modules/plugins made by the spine devs themselves , open source so free to use and are fairly easy to implement. the fact that a software renders asset doesn't mean the dev behind it can change bones, honestly it wouldn't be far fetched to say that, on earth, only spine devs know how it works, so spine pro is the only way to modify them

there is perhaps a way if you convert the skel to json and then try to guess how it works, but that'll take years if not never to try and make something by yourself

and by the time you'd understand, a new spine version is out, nikke devs will have changed to it and uhhh

[strange fox]

yeah, i mean, it seems that it just read the skel file byte by byte and just parse it somehow, so i think it would be like using "cheat engine" in a game, where you modify an address but the game/program just keep running ok, unless you touch something you dont. but at the end it just save to an object which can be "easily" read, and possible to reverse it to an skel file. Maybe im just hallucinating but for now i have the time to do it 👍 so i guess gl for me. the program costs 300$ because is like an all-in-one software, but i just want a one-of-the-all functions of it :p

[dawn tusk]

Hi guys

I'm new here, how do you mod

[uncut fox]

It is safe

[dawn tusk]

And is it safe?

[uncut fox]

Check the pins of #1041207949508497548

You simply copy paste the files into a folder

That's all

[dawn tusk]

Even for mobile?

[uncut fox]

Yes

Getting into that folder might be troublesome, however

[dawn tusk]

I see I see, sooo currently the mods available are in #modded-assets , and in the free seikoro site right

The free ones

[uncut fox]

Yes

They might be outdated though

Any character mod posted before Maid Privaty update

[dawn tusk]

Hmmm I see I see

[dawn tusk]

guys I downloaded the mods... sooo do I need to backup my files first

[uncut fox]

No

You don't need to backup anything

[dawn tusk]

and I can't find this eb file...

[uncut fox]

eb in this age...

Android/data/com.proximabeta/files/UnityCache/Shared/aeb001dfac...

Go here

[dawn tusk]

wow so many files in there

what if I wanna revert and don't use mods?

like swap around

[dawn tusk]

and... I just replace the stuffs in there?

[uncut fox]

delete the mod

[uncut fox]

yes

Copy paste the files here

[dawn tusk]

dumb question, just like that? paste?

[uncut fox]

You copy the files

not the folders

Obviously, you are replacing the files

you can't paste folders

[dawn tusk]

then how am I going to delete the mod

if I don't want it

[uncut fox]

go inside the folder.

[dawn tusk]

ahh once I delete, it will download back the original one right

[uncut fox]

yes

Like it does in a new update

[dawn tusk]

interesting...

thanks thanks

[nimble bronze]

Looking for a sakura or diesel battle skin mod, checked some of the pinned mega's but can't find any, anyone got one?

[dawn tusk]

hmm its' not working

that's sad

[uncut fox]

Did you copy paste the files inside the folder

[dawn tusk]

yeah i did

there's no replace or anything tho

I just pasted it

[uncut fox]

So you did not copy paste the files

you copy pasted the folders

[dawn tusk]

eihh i went in the file to select

[uncut fox]

Then there should be overwrite prompt

show what you are copy pasting

[dawn tusk]

like this no?

[uncut fox]

yes

Hmm

Are you playing on High Quality Textures?

[dawn tusk]

nope

[uncut fox]

That explains it

Enable High Quality textures

[dawn tusk]

i didn't know I needed that

and.... i need to redo the process again

[near niche]

MOD MOVED TO WHERE? FOR PC

[grave wind]

Is someone working on a buff for the boobs in rosanna's new skin?

They did her dirty

[dawn tusk]

Hi, quick question

If I modded, can I play coop?

Won't I get caught or something

[tulip lagoon]

Modded skin dont interfere with anything

[dawn tusk]

Ahh that's good
I was afraid people in coop freak out or something seeing a naked girl appear

[tulip lagoon]

It's client side so no worries

[dawn tusk]

Aites that's good to know

Btw if my game lags during max texture... What should I lower, skill effect being 0 is fine right?

Or it kinda ruins the game

[tulip lagoon]

Laggy during normal gameplay no burst?

[uncut fox]

Only Texture quality setting matters

You can lower everything else

Except Frames Per Second

[dawn tusk]

Yeah kinda...

[dawn tusk]

Lower jiggle and shirt physics kinda ruins the game no

[uncut fox]

I'm just telling you what is needed for the mods to work

That is up to you

[dawn tusk]

Alright thanks

[dawn tusk]

Uhh what does the skill effect thing change

If I turn all off

[strange fox]

just turn it off and see it yourself 🙂

[uncut fox]

Won't do anything for the mod

[stiff mist]

I remember finding files (video) for the burst/banner preview inside either appdata or Nikke folder. Is anybody familiar with the location?

I think its a temp folder or something but I can't find it.

nvm I found it

[tulip lagoon]

@little hamlet you can use modded skins on ios but it takes a bit more time , no jailbreak needed

[little hamlet]

How does it work?

[stoic shell]

Hey guys, need help, I want to install mods but I downloaded the game from QooApp because the game Isn't available in my country, anyone knows where to put the mods ?

It doesn't matter where you downloaded the game from

#1041207949508497548 pins @quick spade

[quick spade]

This is what I get when I try to enter data file

[dawn tusk]

Use file manager or something to access

Google can help you with that

[unique fog]

How to change the char's potrail, I have a skin swap mod but want to swap the potrail too

[uncut fox]

Do exactly what you did with the cover aim and standing files

Just decrypt with nau and open in asset studio

You don't need to change their filenames

They have remained static for a very long time

@unique fog

[quick spade]

I did that, but it didn't work

[unique fog]

got it thank you!!!

[dawn tusk]

Guys I have some issues
The free version seireiko mod for anis, volume isn't working for me...
Could this be a phone issue or some steps that I missed out

And the Rapunzel mod is kinda glitching out a bit...

Not sure if anyone else experience this issue

[grizzled trellis]

Renamed?

[dawn tusk]

Yeah I pasted the file in, it doesn't replace anything

Maybe the name changed...
Where can I see the file names for those

[grizzled trellis]

Renamed?

You should check volumesimp name sheet

[dawn tusk]

Alright thanks bro

[grizzled trellis]

Rapunzel glitching?

[dawn tusk]

The shooting pose of rapunzel

I forgot which side

Either shooting or cover

One of it is not changed

[dawn tusk]

Could use a PC to pull the files, it's easier

[grizzled trellis]

Need rename as well

The glitch is her hair physics i belive

Back when i made Rapunzel mod i havent learn much about physic

[dawn tusk]

Alright I will do it later and I will just post here if there are still any issues

[fierce wren]

anyone using spine pro run into this issue? im trying to resave a new atlas to remove facemask off of Killer D's cover model, but end up getting this error. Even with undo-ing and fresh atlas, spine, png from the game files lead me into the same issue when trying to resave an atlas.

[grizzled trellis]

They have esoterict forum....

[teal jackal]

You're still trying to do it? Thank you so much, really 😭

[fierce wren]

First place I asked

[fierce wren]

I have two done but it’s easier through spine but spine isn’t playing nice and idk why so I just made the mask completely transparent. I’ve been finishing up my last week of work so I’ll be able to prob pack it all and get it uploaded if not tonight then tomorrow

[pallid sentinel]

@shell falcon

here u can ask

but yeah you can put paid skins that replace basic outfits

#modded-assets message

like this

skin swaps

[shell falcon]

Hey there, are there any "cool mods" with alt outfits? I'd like to see new skins on some nikkes and the official either don't exist or are too expensive, the full nudity mods are lame

[pallid sentinel]

check the channel link i left

official skin swaps work in a way u are replacing the baisc stance with the skin
