|Beautiful skeleton| editionPrevious thread: >>481920684>Current version: 1.0.64>Latest important announcement (February 6, 2024)https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/233860/view/3995322938520824257>Kenshi 2 Announcement:Soon (tm)>What is Kenshi?"A free-roaming squad based RPG. Focusing on open-ended sandbox gameplay features rather than a linear story.""Be a trader, a thief, a rebel, a warlord, an adventurer, a farmer, a slave, or just food for the cannibals. Research new equipment and craft new gear."https://store.steampowered.com/app/233860/Kenshi/https://www.gog.com/game/kenshi>Demo Linkhttps://lofigames.com/>Tips for beginnersLearn to pick your fights, don't hesitate to run away and don't reload unless you die, any fight you survive makes you stronger. Building an outpost will attract trader caravans and hostile raids. Building one too early might be more than you can handle. Pressing F1 will open the tutorial screen. Mousing over the stats screen and HUD will reveal useful tooltips and additional info. If the enemies feel too difficult - get crossbows for your units. And don't be afraid of the RP autism - engage in it whenever you can. And do unlock the sliders.>https://pastebin.com/zw9fCJdC>Some modshttps://mega.nz/folder/x4d1SLwZ#i09S39AoukUkqYLtHaTWTg>AND a link to the giga muscle-girl modhttps://mega.nz/folder/6ZBmADJK#8uL2GFZYoLgdS6kBV0DJfA>Some moonrune mod archive on the LL Kenshi threadhttps://ux.getuploader.com/hentaibutayarou/index/date/desc/1>LL modding threadhttps://www.loverslab.com/topic/87203-kenshi/>post with jonijonikenshi mods (like milking mod) after he deleted it allhttps://www.loverslab.com/topic/87203-kenshi/page/48/#comment-4050418>LL mod indexhttps://www.loverslab.com/topic/172556-kenshi-mod-index/#comment-3450198>Kenshi Fuck Modhttps://www.loverslab.com/files/file/24433-kenshi-fuck-mod/>The package of optimization mods from Nexushttps://mega.nz/folder/XhERDCRI#37kPAWeA_LKfPTO-qiaY1Q

You know who to thank for that.

When Dardino approached the skeleton inhabitant, this one seemed welcoming --or as much as its body would allow-- to the guest. Less interested in the dead robot on his shoulder, it invited the support officer to a brief conversation.>https://i.imgur.com/p5hcxZo.png
...This thing gives Dardino the heebie jeebies, but it's totally the kind of thing uncle Victor would love to look at. It sounds like this skeleton is more interested in adventuring than being holed up in the Calatrava lab, though...

What a day.
I'm trying to go the Holy nation route, but Phoenix keeps telling me to capture Seto (and I captured her long ago), if I tell him I want to destroy the shek kingdom.Is this a glitch?I'm on vanilla.
bugs are cute
>>483210868>ask to destroy flotsam>capture moll>ask to destroy shek>capture Seto>"now the shek are warring">they suddenly come to my stead with a big army with "invincibles" and Esata herself>capture esata>Shek capital now belongs to the berserkers>ask Phoenix what to do to destroy the shek>"go capture seto"did my game get messed up?I don't even have any mods installed...was I supposed to kill them instead of capture, so I reset the thing on an import and try all over again.
>>483216256btw, my farm had the "house" icon (like all the holy farms/mines), does anyone knows the requirements for icon changes of the settlement?I saw it change when I added my well, but it suddenly became an X later, and I'm not sure why, I didn't even remove any buildings.
>>483210868>>483216256I'm inclined to say it's indeed a bug; the game doesn't register Esata being dead or captured. My suggestion would be to import the game, and if the problem persists, kill Esata next time you defeat her.>>483217891It changes based on the amount of buildings, as well as the number + strength of walls and gates
>>483220640>It changes based on the amount of buildings, as well as the number + strength of walls and gateanyone has the exact numbers?it seems strange for it to suddenly "downgrade" and I remember one time I was trying to aim for the tower thing, and the thing I lacked was a research bench or something like that.
>>483220935Not a clue. I know it just takes a longhouse with a wall and a gate + people actively in it to be a tower
>>483221741>people actively in itoh...maybe it was because I left to the shek kingdom to fight the invasion coming (it was an X and I didn't tend the wheat farm for a while)
Things I want in Kenshi 2 >ability to do actual slavery>more "very hard" starts>trade routes>less easily guaranteed ways of making money like Hashish >your start giving you access to unique dialogue and interactions >faster dodging and/or a countering skill for martial arts>people acknowledging you in areas where you fucked up the world state (NPCs cursing you for letting them be overrun by cannibals)>fix gate clipping
Dardino isn't too sure about allowing a demon to tag along, but he should at least bring him to the doctor...right?>https://i.imgur.com/Adu0Ptm.png
>>483224423I want a chat window I can have active so I don't miss out when some rando npc is asking for something before beating the shit up of my party in another part of the world...And actual ridable mounts to make caravans funnier (the ridabble bull mod was fun, but didn't convince me).And being able to actually gift stuff to mercenaries, so they can wear better equipment if I give them something better than what they are wearing.
Barely on their journey out of the floodlands, the robot starts making very curious observations. Dardino could learn a lot about this thing.>https://i.imgur.com/sxZ7INz.png>>483224423Don't forget>Crafting stations let you search items by name instead of scrolling through the whole dang list
btw, while trying to roleplay as holy nation, I didn't know what to do with the dust bandits, I mean, should I pay them to "be friends" (even when that doesn't even change the relationship) or what would an okranite do?
>>483227923they prey on innocent okran loving farmers
Dardino and his new companion successfully return to Alto Calatrava. Looks like they're busy...>https://i.imgur.com/ssppy0P.png>>483227923Rebirth those bratty heretics!
>>483229046>Rebirth those bratty hereticsfor some reason rebirth stoped accepting every person I brought them (I started bringing them fogged to raise relationships, but after a while they just stopped accepting them and just let me do the dialog to give up my character).Does anyone have an idea of what could trigger this?I already had 100 of relationship by bringing bounties to the inquisitor at the city.
Sneed
shit matters
>>483236784The second Great Crater Explosion won't ferment itself
After conversing with doctor Calatrava, it's decided for Dardino to keep "Burn" in the vanguard corps. Personally, Dardino is not at all thrilled to be responsible for a team comprised of A) A scorchie who doesn't hide her interest in him anymore, and whom he can barely pretend to not be interestedB) A nubile and mindbroken Stenn-cow who's too busy thinking about submission to understand personal spaceC) The quiet crazy dog lady Don Pedro assigned to be his babysitter (which, mind you, also defected from the Flotsam, like Yuuka)and now D) A plain-and-simple demon.Ah, if he makes it out of this alive, Dardino believes, his faith in Okran will rival the Phoenix. He just has to do his job and keep his soul un-darkened...>https://i.imgur.com/31zTodR.png

I hate the meme bug.
>>483254000>>483200115Well, I believe my idea would work correctly, if it wasn't for the fact that both kenshi bones and meshes are different. It's hard to wrap my head around those differences, I am only slowly starting to comprehend the relative effects of bones in poses (like why the fact female I-pose) being different from male I-pose almost pretty much doesn't affect the animation).
Red - original meshBlue - armor deformed to fit male skeleton automatically (same mesh as the pic above)Skin - ugly male for scale
>>483243379>>483245898They have the stupidity, but they don't have the plot armor to back it up. Amusing.
>>483245898fanny...
I bitched a lot about Chris, but his meshes at least could be broken down. This shit is untouchable because there are texture seams everywhere and deleting any edges will break this shit faster than Ruka's horns.
>>483278063>I bitched a lot about Chris, but his meshes at least could be broken down. This shit is untouchable because there are texture seams everywhere and deleting any edges will break this shit faster than Ruka's horns.What are you talking about. Chris's meshes are full of seams. Most of his furnitures use a single shared texture and as a result his UV maps are all over the place.
>>483281769>What are you talking about
>>483282096is this just that choker? jesus
I just realized that you can keep fogmen prince alive after removing their head if you do the following:>KO them>heal them so they don't die (or just wait if you used assassinate[still not sure why is it called like that if you just KO them instead of kill])>wait nearby (you may need to use sneak if you are too strong, because they might select to play dead instead of getting up in that case)>right click on them so the menu appear>wait over the "loot" option>once they start waking up, select loot >loot them while they are getting up/running>if you take their head on this moment, you can take it without them dyingI guess this might also work for fishmen
>>483286034>I guess this might also work for fishmenIt works on wild animals too. I made skimmer unkillable by taking all death items like you did with the head. No one can butcher it for meat.Never tried it with my own animals. I don’t know if it’s possible to loot them. And the animal may unglitch after import.
Sseth's Kenshi video has ~7.700.000 views.
>>483285041Torso/arms, but having this many faces in random places means one part of mesh has 5 (though according to picrel the collar and its spikes have like 100 fucking UV islands...) different seams in random places. It's probably good for saving texture space, but an absolutely abhorrent mesh in combination with that type of UV means you can't edit fucking anything.
>>483289001all me
>>483289209>It's probably good for saving texture spaceNot really. There's a bunch of duplicate islands here. You could delete all but one and have the UV maps overlap.
>>483292724Hm, good eye. I assumed this was textured by hand, but now I see the dupes are from same object copied twice, which suggest some massive retardation was going on as well.
How would an Okranite react to the black dragon ninja invasions?I hired some mercenaries, but it's just 4 dudes, the ninjas don't demand a thing, they just go and get near a chest in my main house, I'm not sure if they are trying to steal something, but after a while of them clustered near the chest, they just leave.

In that case, it sounds like a pretty good idea and perfect for berserker/barbarian type playthroughs.

As the battle ends, the guards and the wardens get to checking for survivors among the Flotsam...>https://i.imgur.com/4ciZH0e.png>>483297858What's gonna happen to the legplates?
I haven't raised my Holy Citizen stealth because "it may be disonorable" (I'm not sure about how okranites see that).Holy Lord Phoenix told me to use stealth for Capturing Seto.Should I take that as an autorization to raise stealth?are there any instanses some Okranite raises it?I haven't raised thievery, nor lockpicking either.
>>483301105wish I knew
>>483293286Okranites are wrathful and have no mercy on criminals. Bandits all get sent to Rebirth, I suppose you can consider recruiting the human bandits to work for Okran.

>>483304778Agents are not thieves. It's not about skills, but how you use them.
>>483309471agents must be really good at that, because I haven't seen any yet (just paladins of different ranks).

>>483304778Paladins are bigger fans of making a big show out of capturing and punishing heretics, but nowhere is it said they "shun" covert tactics. Really, playing smart is probably how they've survived for so long despite being outnumbered and outflanked
>>483309659>He doesn't know about the Holy Ninjas
>>483309940I checked the "wiki" (the only wiki I saw online), and none of the units in the holy nation seem to have sneaking levels (except the shop guard which is said to have 10).I was wondering how they have assasination without raising sneaking, and I found out that if you pause the game, activate stealt, pick to "assassinate" someone, remove stealth, and then remove pause, you can actually do that KO thing without raising sneaking.I see it as runing and trying to hit their heads as surprise.
Doctor Calatrava invited Izumi to a cup of sake to ease her nerves after the attack. She's relieved the guards took care of things, but she wonders why they were taking the survivors into jail instead of throwing them out or finishing them off...>https://i.imgur.com/FvzVC2j.png

Another feature that should obviously be included in Kenshi 2 is being able to interact with characters/shops from an enemy faction if you're in disguise.

>>483180251So, found a mod on LL/Workshop that adds a Viera strip club in the desert.Now, because I'm not a retard I figured out that shit was fucked and separated all the files in the folders into their own mods. However, even with the club town loading and the wedding mod separate, I still get this going on.https://files.catbox.moe/lol35o.jpgAnyone else had this and sorted it?
>>483355108I don't think you can go wrong with any of the harpoon turrets, they all do great damage. Double barrel is probably the best overall.
>>483395412Meh. I tried to instal the mod on the gabenshop, it didn't work, so I just uninstalled it. Waiting till the modder regains his interest to Kenshi and finishes the mod.

Okay, finally can say fuck you to this armor. Couldn't do anything good about the back because I suck. Harness not included, the dickshield is a part of the bottom armor.The stickman I found doesn't do the armor justice unfortunately.

Added this low-effort freshly-unwrapped backplate to cover the vital organs and your virgin eyes from too much exposure. Looks better in this situation than usually. Looks good, even.
>>483409646>so what happens if my donut has 1 leg and 1 prosthetic leg?One of my donuts is like this, they do get an athletics boost from the shoes. I doubt he's only getting half the benefits because his agility goes from 30 to 34.

>>483478539You have to find the leader of the starver gang and give him as much money as you can. Avoid them when they're aggressive, and heal them if you fight them
>>483478539I think it's totally up to chance if the leader asks for money or not. The chance increases as you gain reputation with them.

That is a control bone (pretty sure it has a name and not quite sure it is even needed for kenshi), it controls the whole body with its transforms (movement, rotation, scaling).
I have to figure out how to pass animation over to the "he's literally not me" skeleton. Will absolutely add the missing bone to have 2h animations, god rest its sovl.
>female and male skeleton use different animations for the same actionchris just made this personal.
>>483419786I'm going to hazard a guess that the modelling wasn't too difficult, but did you custom make the textures? And was the weighting a bitch or did you apply auto-weighting with blenders thing that it does?I'd like to make some sexy custom armours myself, but what would hold me back the most is making the armour morph with the body morph like when you make the tits or thighs bigger.
>>483543142>modellingActually worst part for me to keep textures okay. I used edit mode to change the shoes and then move some plates from legs to the ass and scale some stuff like shoes/calves to be wider, but from then on it was sculpt mode. Sculpt mode all the way. Draw, Elastic Deform and Inflate, specifically.Make sure to use mirror editing (works even on uneven meshes) to save time making general changes and Topology (brush settings) to edit single surfaces instead of ALL the mesh in area.>texturingNon. I did have to fix the shoe UVs (hated every second of it due to seams being everywhere and final effect is bad, but okay for Kenshi) and unwrap the back plate.>weighting a bitchalways>apply auto-weighting with blenders thing Heads - no changeTorso - no change + hand tweakShoes - auto + manual tweaking for feet (because of the offset)Legs - Voxel heat diffuse and corrective smooth baker from an addon. To make it work, I had male body mesh be a part of the leg armor mesh. For diffuse part, standard settings + Protect Selected (with body mesh selected in edit mode). For Corrective Smooth, sharper Twist Angle (70 I think, because that codpiece was stubborn while running) + Bake Range set to Selected (with entire armor selected and mesh deselected).
>>483546953That's a lot of words I don't understand.Damn, maybe modding sexy armours just isn't in my future.
>>483547201Which words? The addon shit is just button pressing.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=62Yas4Q2Xn4
>>483547397Oh I see, that's a lot better then.The most I've ever done for other games like Haydee was editing existing meshes and adding static objects that haven't needed much weighting.
>>483547654Yeah I had issues with this armor in particular and it forced me to finally install this addon and test it. That video saved my sanity for sure.Side note - seems like I didn't even have to join male body with the armor to make it work, just select/deselect it in edit mode.
>>483547864Neat. Well, I'll be lurking in the thread as I work on things, or attempt to, hopefully you don't mind me picking your brains on occasion.

>>483550674I.. uh. Need to have someone without right hand to test left hand sword positioning. Figured the only feasible way of getting there was modifying an armor to only leave right hand vulnerable and... well, as it turns out, katanas have some absurd piercing that cannot be stopped by FULL cut and blunt protection? Mint was chipping through this armor even with its FCS stats maxed out and the second I made her switch to crossbow, it stopped all the attacks except for the right hand hits.Does anyone know what the hell was that with the katana going through armor? Could it be the +10% to human damage?
Huh. Well this is retarded, isn't it?
Giraffe season is over.
Nevermind. Apparently the left-handed combat animations ONLY activate when the character actively uses an equipped melee weapon. They refuse to fight one-handed otherwise.But this reminds me the block pose is ABHORRENT.Any ideas for a better block animation? I accept stickman drawings.

Okay I have no idea how to trigger the left-hand animations.If anyone sees male/female using any weapon with just the left hand, please post the screenshot of it and tell me what attack it was.

WRYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
>>483560202You know, I wouldn't put it past Chris to ""make everyone right-handed" and have them not fight when the main hand is crippled
>>483569879No, the left-handed combat exists, I saw it and there is records of it online. I specifically want it checked after reading that the left-handed animations use the other Prop bone, and knowing that bone is ALL over the place.I really need to see how it looks in game.

Right now there's only intro dialogue and nothing else, but I'm going to make them lewd as fuck.I'm also currently editing the mesh to make the nips/areola thicker and the puss more defined. Hopefully it doesn't fuck with the armour too hard as I've no idea how it will be affected.

I seem to be having a bit of a fucky-uppy-wuppy with blender. The method I knew of importing things usually starts with the skeleton and then the mesh with the skeleton selected, and it's apparently the same for Kenshi from a tutorial I saw.However, I imported the mesh alone first and started buggering about, and forgot the skeleton. I have the mesh in a blend file and I can't import it the usual way from the mesh with the weights, can I do it arse-about-face somehow? I'd rather not have to re-do the sculpts.
>>483582997>I imported the mesh alone firstIf you import mesh without armature, it will not import the vertex groups so uh, yeah.>I have the mesh in a blend file and I can't import it the usual way from the mesh with the weightDoes the mesh have weights in that blend file?
..Oh now I understand>Reading Comprehension increased to 11.Give me a moment to think.
>>483584761>does the mesh have weightsNo, fuck. I did not realise. Well, there goes 2 hours of autistic sculpting!>>483584935YOU'RE SAYING THERE'S A CHANCE?
>>483585341>correctly import the mesh you edited to poach its organs>add Data Transfer modifier>applyVidrel. But since you've done some modifications to the mesh, play around with mapping (the thing I hovered over for a second). That thing determines how the weights are translated between the meshes. You will have the live preview of all the generated vertex groups for as long as the Data Transfer is active.
>>483585341>>483586932On a second thought, you might wanna manually separate the arms and the rest first, to do them separately. I imagine the blender will shit itself with all that clipping geometry.
>>483586932You beautiful bastard, I owe you a drink. Or something. You saved my robots tiddy.There's only slight mesh issues with the arms overlapping the chest but that's an easy fix with a bit of removing weight painting seeing as I don't know what you mean by separating the arms from the rest.https://files.catbox.moe/gzwvdp.png
>>483589872>seeing as I don't know what you mean by separating the arms from the restCutting the limbs off and making them their own mesh by pressing P. Or just selecting the limbs and pressing P. That way you can apply the weights without any overlapping shit.>fully modeled nipplesNow add nipple bones and make them lengthen during animation
>>483591141>Cutting the limbs off and making them their own mesh by pressing P. Or just selecting the limbs and pressing P. That way you can apply the weights without any overlapping shit.Do you mean like, separating the skeleton first, THEN doing the whole vertex weight data transfer thing?>Now add nipple bones and make them lengthen during animationI wouldn't know how to make them lengthen for any sort of proper flop, but I can definitely make the new bones and weight the nips solely to them.Though, I don't know how Kenshi handles importing a new skeleton and recognising them enough to flop around. I don't believe the base game has flopping boobs, it's been forever since I did vanilla but I think boob jiggle was added by the bouncing boobs and idle - bouncing chest +, which might overwrite the base skeleton, but I don't know.I don't touch that deep because I don't want to massively fuck everything up.
>>483592787I meant picrel. Arms are separate object from the rest, moved them only to make it clearer.You do this for both meshes and then use two data transfers for arms>arms and body>body. Then you combine both again and merge by distance to seal the mesh again.>Bouncing boobsI'm using that mod as basis for combat animation fix. It just has Boob A and B move around for some animations and it does replace the original skeleton rather than make changes in the FCS, yes. I'm going the same route of just replacing the skele.You could make a custom skeleton for your race and then plug it into FCS.
flying bull was no match for my waifu in single combat. we defeated krals chosen and it only cost us a single hive prince leg!
Man I fucking hate exporting skeletons. A week in and I still constantly get bugs and have no idea how to actually properly do that. Just realized my animations didn't export at all, despite being told I don't have to have animations checked in NLA. Ree.
>>483595081>You could make a custom skeleton for your race and then plug it into FCSI'm already lost on what seems to be basic modding, what makes you think I can get that running? I'd have to somehow make work with Kenshi's animations and the bouncing boob mod and the idles and the idles - bouncing chest+ and-It would be a major headache, unless FCS will accept a skeleton with nipple bones and magically make them move like the tits, it's not happening.
>>483595628what the fuck is "bouncing chest+"?
>>483595776https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1679025529&searchtext=idle+bouncingGives some of the idle animations bouncy tits when the animation plays, it's very nice.
I love Big "Big Bosom" Bo.
>>483595949fuck's sake...
>>483599251It's one reason I don't want to go fucking with skeletons, because this one uses its own skeleton, but somehow the Kenshi skeleton with bouncing boobs also functions perfectly fine and the two magically manage not to conflict.I figure it's a very delicate gestalt and disturbing it will be more trouble than it's worth.
I fucking hate kenshi modding. You can't fucking do shit between 2 different skeleton replacers and 4 SHITTY, BAD animation fixes that function from within FCS.That is not even counting how subhuman Kenshi and getting information how it works is.

Teaser for how the Santana adventure has been going:
Anyways, the Bast incursion is once again interrupted by unwelcome visitors. Torres just keeps having to earn his place as town speaker...
>>483648218Shouldn't it be "under AN order of the Empire" ?
>>483648384I think it works. For example, "By decree of the king..." is a thing. If you were to analyze the sentence you could infer it means "I have arrived under orders of the empire to kick your ass", which then comes out as "Under order of the empire... I'm going to kick your ass."
Combo kills are so satisfying
So what the general prep for taking on robot enemies? Iirc they are more weak to blunt weapons, but what's the recommended toughness and armor to use when delving into ruins?
>>483655054Blunt and Hacker work great on skeles. As far as armor is concerned, it depends: Rookies would do best with heavy armor. Tougher fighters would do good with medium. Your best men ought to use light armor for the stat boost... Assuming you're not critically underlevelled.
>>483655054>but what's the recommended toughness and armor to use when delving into ruins?You'll be fighting security spiders then, those things fucking suck. I recommend training a character's Toughness to the 80s, outfitting them in specialist armor, and giving them a hacker like the paladin's cross if you plan on fighting them. Otherwise you can go the stealth route, I find that's it's easy sneaking to the third floors of ruins generally but the third floor is where security is the tightest. Of course there's also just sending in all your characters to fight as a group, bit of a gamble but as long as you have crossbows it might work out.
>>483656310I'll continue on this anon's post regarding group fights:Watch out. Fight carefully or all your guys will get cleaved and you'll look like an idiot. Set everyone on HOLD, and if you outnumber the enemy fight them between two guys, and keep any surplus units waiting in case a fighter falls.Because of how kenshi group fights work (combat slots) it's very likely that if you set a bunch of dudes on one enemy most of your characters will just be standing there and taking damage for fun.

One thing I've always been lost on and had to just painstakingly repeat was the painting weights of two symmetrical meshes.Here I've painted a stripe around one leg as an example, and then tried to mirror it onto the other leg, but it never copies across perfectly so I always have to paint one leg a little, then move to the other leg and paint it a little, over and over until they're both symmetrical. I'd like to paint one leg and mirror the weight onto the other leg but it never functions.Left left with example ring.https://files.catbox.moe/g1a55z.pngRight leg only mirroring half the ring.https://files.catbox.moe/4j6ajm.pngAny advice, blenderAnon?
I have discovered that something is wrong with the symmetry, it seems.Knowing this, I don't think weight painting the thigh with symmetry will be possible.https://files.catbox.moe/ejmbc7.png
Painting the entire left leg, we see the entire scope of the affected right leg.I've never encountered this so I've no clue what the issue is. It's like a layer mask.https://files.catbox.moe/vl1f29.png
>>483696007Blame millionaire bong and unpaid blender devs alike. Bone names need to start with "L " or "R " (including space) for Blender to know they are to be mirrored. Make sure you have "EasyWeights" addon enabled (otherwise idk, download it), it expands the shitty weight context menu on the right.Also yeah, asymmetrical vertices seem to not get copied. If you want to get messy, duplicate your mesh, flip it on the X axis, separate the side you have weights on (cut off the rest), get your weights named correctly and delete other weights, then use Data Transfer to get those weights to the other side, ignoring incorrect topology, ignoring no "R " or "L ".Oh, and if you for whatever reason want to subtract or add weight groups, there is a Weight Mix modifier. It seems useless for everything that is not related to what its name implies.Gotta admit, weights are my weakspot. If you find some better addon or method to wrangle vertex groups on asymmetrical meshes, let me know.>>476225458 blast to the distant pastThis is one of the reasons why I was shitting on bong for making body meshes asymmetrical. This is precisely why you keep meshes symmetrical wherever you can. Little topology differences are meaningless and invisible (in kenshi's case very visible in editing software), but lead to a plethora of issues when trying to edit those areas later.
>>483699932>for Blender to know they are to be mirroreder, I meant knowing they are a part of a pair and which part they are.
>>483699932Yeah the bones have that, they're Bip01 L Thigh and Bip01 R Thigh. Only the boobs start with L and R, it doesn't seem to matter where in the name that they go?And, oh, so THAT's why the tits on every model are off centre, must be the skeleton bones.And here I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me.As for easyweights... Nothing is EVER fucking simple bro, I hate it. God forbid I manage to just install something with one click and not have to fuck around for hours.
>>483702890>Bip01 L Thigh and Bip01 R ThighNo, the names need to START with "R "/"L " or it doesn't work. Trust me, I once yoinked a python script just to rename that shit for me (no idea why).>And, oh, so THAT's why the tits on every model are off centre, must be the skeleton bonesHuh? Bones only affect the mesh during animation, meshes are off-center by default.>easyweightsI hazard a gues that it's not easyweights, it's the blender you're using. Get 4.1 or 3.6.
>>483704595Ah, I won't be using easyweights then, I can't run the model editing for OGRE meshes in anything later than 2.9 for some reason, it just crashes whenever I try and import anything. 2.9 works well enough.
>>483706269>I can't run the model editing for OGRE meshes in anything later than 2.9 for some reasonwhah? which addon are you using? the shit that lofi made is outdated
>>483706362I don't know, some tools I grabbed that's lost within my files somewhere where it's installed when I first starting trying to do Kenshi stuff years back.
Also even with all L and R vertex groups renamed it doesn't seem to do much.https://files.catbox.moe/kxg45e.pnghttps://files.catbox.moe/g9yc5n.png
>>483706597So iirc, 3.6 has is the version that introduced "new" python and is thus compatible with all (most?) addons. That is why your 2.9 sharts. Please export your mesh and get one of these (with corresponding Blendahr):>Lo-Fi addon updated to usable state and maintainedhttps://codeberg.org/Kindrad/Kenshi_IO_Continuedfor Blender 3.6 (usable with, but might encounter issues with higher versions)>Nippon steel custom addonhttps://github.com/Lucius64/kenshi_io_blender/releasesfor Blender 4.1
>>483707680goddammit gimme that mehshI'm full procrastination mode with my animation project anyway
I switched over to 3.6 with the new tools and wondered if that might be what's causing the symmtery issues, but no, still absolutely buggered.I painted the left side and goddamn, look how much shit is like it's masked on the right. What the fuck did the guy do with this model?https://files.catbox.moe/4i3szg.png

>>483713498Oh that's easy enough, all I've done is change the nips and some weights, the original works just dandy and will have the same issues.Know an alternate share host to Anonfiles? It's been dead a while. Catbox doesn't take zips it seems, or if it does then my zip is too large.

>>483721663
>>483731419Why is Rayman trying to fist me?
>>483721663>>483730543The issue was mirroring the vertexes.There's some kind of mask when you apply symmetry and pain on one side, it doesn't reflect on the other, so when you try and copy one side across to the other it doesn't do it 100%Are the sharp meshes an easy fix? I'd not mind doing it for my nips model.
>>483733143Oh so you gave me the basic mod and... right. I wanted to get the nipples model to see what would be the best solution or just do it myself, lol.
>>483733367Best solution to what?But here, it'll be the exact same as the original I expect, unless the entire problem in general is just how everything is importing.When I import the model normal the model's weights aren't correct, like on the body at the back it's meant to be entirely red, but the sides are less weighted whilst the hands extend some of their weight up onto the upper body.https://litter.catbox.moe/civmhp.mesh
>>483735043Wow it exports without the vertex groupings even though I exported it with the skeleton.
>>483735043So the problem is how the weights import/export?Idk if this is your problem, but Kenshi allows for only 3 or 4 weight values per bone. Picrel automatically recalculates them, but even if you don't do it, Kenshi will ignore your smooth weights.This is why I dropped high-poly ass project.>>483735975It imported with vert groups for me... and also it seems like it's the same mesh I sent you, but without the UVs? I'm really confused.
>>483736118I uploaded the tiddy nip mesh version.Unless I am literally retarded and uploaded a different version...
>>483736118Yeah, this should be the same mesh, unless I cocked up somehow, it's almost double the size of the original due to all the tiddy.https://litter.catbox.moe/j4q1us.mesh
And no, the issue is >>483733143>>483713202>>483707680>>483696620>>483696007>>483694831I want to paint one leg, then copy that weight across to the other leg to avoid it not being the same. I can't do that because there's some kind of masking present that prevents the mirroring from happening.
>>483732726Look at the thumbnail >>483721663
>>483737025Crucify me if you want, but they look fairly similar to me anon...>>483737620Oh, kek.
>>483737827...Please look at >>483696007>>483696620>>483713202They look similar because the guy weighting it painted them separately I think.I want to redo the weighting because it's functional but not the best, the thighs don't connect to the arse the way they should so moving the thigh by itself leaves the arse anchored in place. You'll notice the Spine and Spine 1 weighting is a lot smoother and connects the armour to the movement, and includes the arse because that's what I've done so far.Point being, select the foot, either one, and paint a line down one side with symmetry on, you'll see the mask issue or whatever it is. This is what's preventing me from mirroring. So if I do one legs new weights all perfect I can't mirror it across to the other leg to save time.
>>483738401Idk I just kinda "mirrored" the left thigh onto the right thigh manually. Not perfect but not bad either?As for mirror-anything... only Sculpting mirror works good on asymmetrical meshes. Editing and everything else there is will shit itself with mirror on.
>>483739157>Mirrored manuallyAs in you painted it by eye?That's what I do for meshes I can't mirror.Usually to mirror a mesh I copy it, rename it what the other opposite bone is, and mirror it in the options, that usually doesn't work.I thought it would work here because whilst the boobs are slightly off, the legs seemed perfectly symmetrical.
>>483739458>Usually to mirror a mesh I copy it, rename it what the other opposite bone is, and mirror it in the options, that usually doesn't work.that
>>483739693Right well, I did that and it didn't work...Would you mind starting that from scratch and taking a video like you did with the data transfer?
>>483739840Tomorrow, I gotta go soon.https://files.catbox.moe/kdd5hb.mesh
>>483739949Fair doose. I don't know how you're getting it to work but I'll have to just do it by eye or focus on other weighting for the time being.What's different in the file?
>>483740237Mirrored L Thigh, Calf and Foot to their R counterparts.
>>483740315Oh I see. So what's the sharps issue you were on about? I noticed that on the base mesh too, I thought it was something I did but nah.
i think the new UWE update fucked my old save big time since it crashed every fucking time i tried loading my saves. on the bright side, the game got too bloated anyway and i want to start fresh again

This "shoite" is what I got when importing mesh from >>483715150. Autistically fixed, seethed at polycount and only then looked at weights in confusion (expected your model with half body weighted and got base model).>>483741838POWERFUL LIBRARIAN I KNEEL.>greentext #1>someone redoing ARSEall me>greentext #2not me>>483742297>How doesn't she sink in the sands of Kenshi?Because the wobblebot is by itself the very rock bottom.>>483742871>get easyweights for the option to appearYea. I wouldn't mention it if it wasn't important. Was about to say you shouldn't have to bang your head against anything in newer blender.>>483743980Makes me happy. Between 3 unfinished projects it's good to see my questionable knowledge is of use.
>>483744784Well I still don't know how to bake in stuff because I'd make my own boob anim for her new tits then. I'm fairly certain it would be possible to add nipple bones at that point and make the nips animate too.Alas, animation was never something I figured out and how you got the animation to play is beyond me as well.I only ever learned to fuck around with existing meshes and weight them, I always just have to hope textures magically work after the fact.Hell, trying to remember node shit just gets me this when trying to apply the few .dds files the model comes with.https://files.catbox.moe/o16pdd.png
>>483744784Also also, to remove the jagged bits isn't it a case of hitting some shortcut to connect all the jagged points as they're marked 'hard' or something and need to either not be hard, or connected?I vaguely remember doing something like that when I was fucking with the goat rabbit Sybil from Pseudoregalia, that mesh had very little issues beyond that.
>>483744784>pictureThis was the last thing millions of men from the First Empire saw before they were drained to death.
Ah, I recalled the edge thing, it's a UV meme.Never learned UV mapping too well, but this seam around the tits is what's meant to show the tits coming from the body on the original mesh I think.Not sure what to do about the little square above the boob, it's still fucked even with the sharp fix and selecting the whole UV doesn't have the mesh's stretched poly's show up, unless I need to unwrap the UV to fix that? When I enter edit mode and go transparent to select vertexs with Alt+Z that little square goes invisible as if it's not there, which I thought was a backface cull issue or something.
>>483745349I would help, but at this point I'd probably just mislead you. Need to figure it out from A-Z first.>>483745557You need some of those to stay, that's the problem. Sharp edge basically tells the program that the surface ends on that edge, which affects the lighting. Without them, the entire surface will be treated as smooth with exception of actual 90°+ angles. With EVERY edge marked as sharp you get a picrel.>>483745949And then the wobbot died of starvation.>>483747174>Edit mode>Select all faces>[Ctrl+N] Recalculate normals outside (there was one face pointing inwards, possibly the one you're talking about)>[Alt+N >Average > Set from Face]You want to Set from Face every time you edit a mesh or change sharps or anything. I have that thing under quick favorites (right click in context menu to add anything there) to do it instantly at any time.
>>483749107Oh aye, ta I shall endeavour to get that working and fix all the bits I see.If you can inform me what you did to get the texture to show up it'll probably come back to me. I fucked around with texture stuff when I was doing modding for Haydee and Haydee 2 to make a big tiddy and booty version. I recall it being a pain to mess around with nodes and UV's because they were all over the place.

>>483754516Yeah I did that pretty much without the rough/spec changes >>483745349But it still ended up not displaying the funny camo texture.https://files.catbox.moe/fc6fcl.png>UV thingsAlas, they do not show up. Which is a bit strange as it usually does for other things.
>>483755965...right um. So it would appear that your mesh is missing a UV map. Press U to make sure it's not a hiccup. If it unwraps... you know there is no UV map 200%.
>>483756936What in the- Boy, I say, boy, I say; what in the hell?!
>>483757780That boy ain't right.I take it there is no UV map, then. Can you guess what you need to do now?
>>483758526Suffer, clearly.I don't know how you can import the exact same mesh that I gave you and have the UV function perfectly fine to show off the camo texture. I must have imported it wrong somehow, or some settings must be borked.

Insult to injury, I didn't realise just how fucking uneven and non-symmetrical the mesh was.It's the armour plating! It's all sharp edges and shit, how do you fuck that up?!
>>483759256>Big fan of the /keng/ blender arc.Aye. Didn't know such topic would come up here of all places.
UV's are perfectly fine on the original model.So it means I fucked up somewhere along the way when I was importing/exporting the new mesh, probably.Fuck.I think this means I need to start all over again because I do not want to spend twenty years UV mapping.Unless it's piss easy to do.I figure that I could cut off the tits as that's all I've done mesh wise beyond weighting, staple them to the previous model, and transfer the weight data, right?
>>483758773>>483760079Hon hon hon. But have you ever seen me use YOUR mesh with a UV? I tried that, but assumed you gutted the UV to defend your texture or something.Suffer, clearly. Suffer from insatiable lust towards Data Transfer. Yes. It will save your ass AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN. You just need to find UV data in it.>>483759446>He's starting to learnAnon I just.. I wish I could seat you in front of Outpost IV now. Show you what bong did to this game. Though even bong didn't put 32 THOUSAND triangles into a SINGLE CHARACTER. FUCK THAT MESH....try using Snap to Symmetry, see if that works for you (but keep in mind any clothes made for Nat01 will be made for its og mesh most likely, do you really wanna change it?). Also check out the pelvis "plate" from the back. Some nice "quirky" geometry there...
>>483760184>Moot gifVery based.So the UV was fucked for you as well? It probably really was a me fucking it up with the export type of deal.Am I able to transfer this base models UV data to the new titty robot the same as the weights? That would make me cum.>LeaningAnd burning. It wasn't bong that made this mesh all fucked but the spaniard/mexican that made it. I originally was just going to translate his robot mod into the Queen's RIP English but then the hooks sunk in and I thought 'This sexy robot needs some more definition and oh actually maybe I should do some texture work for when the armour comes off and oh how about some custom character in the world and oh how about custom dialogue and WORD SWAPS for adjectives to describe the monumental size and bounce of the robots amazing tits, hips, and arse for every single instance in the game and-Suffering. The 'tism is real.>Clothing, snap to symmetry, fucked backplateYeah I don't know why the clothing didn't import because it seems like she's got actual armour plating to cover bits I think, I'll have to double check, but that won't be an issue to redo that because that's my specific brand of 'tism. I did that for Haydee and Psuedoregalia. I don't know what Snap to Symmetry is, and yes I did see whatever the fuck that was at the back. Like what the fuck is that Private Pyle...

Try both, see if either works. I don't know, but I think transferring UV might be a bit harder, because that model is made of a 1000 different surfaces.>the robots amazing tits, hips, and arseSo about this mesh... Do me and your GPU a favor. Select all faces, press Alt+J. Keep everything selected, press X, choose "Limited Dissolve" and see how easy it is to unfuck an abhorrently complicated mesh. It's only affecting selected area, so you have control over what you dissolve. Just a trivia.>don't know what Snap to Symmetry isIn the edit mode, in top bar, under "Mesh" menu. It tries to snap vertices on one side (-X) to mirrored positions of vertices from other side of an axis (X). Unlike "Symmetrize", this is nondestructive.Anyway, i need to sleep...
>>483763095Fair doose I shall endeavour to do such things and strive on until you return to suffer my faggotry as you possibly discover everything went up in flames. Murphy's law follows me around like a dead albatross around my neck.Have a good sleep anon, and a huge thanks for all your help.
>The mostly happy mesh screams out in horrific pain as you dissolve itYeah, I think I'll tweak it about selectively but I'm happy for my 2060 to take the hit.
>>483763095Oh, and if you keep the Alt+J (tris to quads), you have to Ctrl+T (triangulation) before the export to avoid weird artifacts during export. Artifacts like unwanted sharps.There are good reasons to work with quads though- some functions of Blender are made to work with them in mind, like loop selects which make your life SO much easier.>>483764093No, that is too steep of an angle. whaevetsfv>>48376350t.

>>483842080By the way, what's with the weapon? Is it a combination of all the HW models?
>>483813540
Vidrel is why I really wish I could have right hand follow the weapon instead of vice versa. Currently it's the weapon that is following the hand and you can see the amount of jitter it produces as a result. The reason I didn't reverse it yet is because the sword is parented to the hand, and every time you move the hand, it moves the sword with it, causing a cascading effect.Resetting the sword in that position and then baking a single frame that way is not a problem, but it's simply not gonna fly for a whole animation. Firstly, it's a bit of a skill issue for me, I tend to fuck up the things I don't see happen in rea time and invisible positioning and "states" of bones are just that kind of thing. Secondly, it would be insanely fiddly to do that and a collosal waste of time when there has to be a simpler method. Alas, I haven't seen a "pin bone in place" (not for sword, but it would help for animating legs) or "make keys global" constraint for bones./blog>>483842139And won't break your wrist while handling a plank!>>483845562>anon asks about the eldritch abominationWell I'll be damned. It's a combination of nearly all vanilla melee weapons (sans exile plank and one hacker needs a tweak by itself). I made it to correctly position hands in relation to the handguards and see the overall visual effect of the animation, rather than just having katana07_bare.mesh in there.I'm actually really confused by how consistent the guards are in their positioning, it's fucking Kenshi, how are the guards not fucked up? I mean they are not perfectly aligned, duh, but still pretty solid.

Fights in tight spaces like these are a pretty god example of why the indoor penalty exists in weapons.>https://i.imgur.com/I0rZT3g.pngI feel like you could make gummies: dunk rice in bloodrum and prepare it into cold little balls.You could also have fuel for huffingIt'd be funny if Kenshi doesn't have guns because the knowledge on how to make it was lost and what remained got snorted during the second empire
>>483904512>>483905119Seems I forgot to reply to you for the two last paragraphs
>>483905119>>483905264Well guns aren't a hard concept, as if we've discovered metallurgy and we can sort out robotics for limbs, we can most certainly understand the basics of black powder in a tube with shot considering all the mining and machinery we have in game.The important part is that it's plausible.
>Skeletons are said to be capable of feeling every emotion Likely the most advanced tech in all of Kenshi because that should literally be impossible
>>483908195They were programmed to behave like women, why are you surprised?
>>483908195Why not? We don't know the heights of which the First Empire rose to.They must have felt some great measure of emotion before the fall of the First and rise of the Second Empire, and that humanity had massive mechs like the ones in Obedience, it's more than possible that Skeletons rose up with righteous fervour and feeling.
I am adding something dangerous to this sexual robot.
bugs...
>>483909634It's the Skynut all over again!
>>483877073Like what? haven't noticed anything
>>483908729Because it should be impossible. Emotions are a biological response. To replicate them in an artificial being to where they can actually FEEL is far above anything we could possibly conceive of doing even in this day and age.
>>483915060Then the First Empire clearly was that advanced, and created a skele-brain capable of emulating the technological equivalent to the biology.Plus it's fantasy, chill. It's possible because the game says it is.
>>483908195It is impossible by the current standards of Kenshi's civilization. Nobody, not even Skeletons themselves, knows how to create more Skeletons. It is a lost technology.
>>483915060>To replicate them in an artificial being to where they can actually FEEL is far above anything we could possibly conceive of doing even in this day and age.Kenshi takes places like centuries into the future, Kenshi doesn't even happen on earth, the whole setting is likely close to something like Rimworld.
The peak of Kenshi technology
>>483916531>>483919214yeah, hence why I said it's the most advanced possible tech. there was no complaint, only a statement of fact about how intricate they must be
>>483921934Those are orbital death lasers, after all.
>>483923192Fair enough, figured you were getting grumpy over Kenshi lore lol.
>>483921934I wonder who aimed it at the planet. The Ancients would know how to operate it but it wouldn't provide much of an advantage as Skeletons are immune to the lasers, or maybe they didn't know that at the time? The Skeletons would benefit from having the lasers attack the Ancients but it seems like they don't possess the means to operate it.
Yo BlenderAnon, you about?I usually suffer through not having the move tool centred on the object I'm working with but I figured you know the shortcut/way to fix it.I thought it was a median point issue and you needed to switch it but that never does anything.
>>483925627
>>483919214>centuriesThousands of years, supposedly. If such time span sounds retarded - ask Chris why did he write it this way.
>>483908195Do they -feel- emotion? Or do they know what is considered sad, what being sad is like, and simulate effectively?>>483925582I've heard they were originally used as terraforming tools
Doing a run where I start as a skelly in the Ashlands and mostly stick to it outside of going to the Skin Bandits for their repair beds. Unsurprisingly, living in a shithole makes you get strong quickly. Outside of strength, anyway....
>>483930384>Do they -feel- emotion?They do. It's literally in their race description when you play as one

are there mandatory mods for first playthrough?
>>483936667Check this post>>483180356Vanilla+ should offer you some options, minus overhauls.
After teaming up with a Samurai patrol and hiring some Police mercs from Many More Mercenaries I raided the Meatlord's domain. With Cannibals Expanded and Legendary of Kenshi he has a really scary posse.
Meatlord swings very slowly but when he connects he's doing 100s of damage. Shryke was dangerously close to death here with her injured leg.
>>483936667I'd probably just go with some performance mods. The first Kenshi playthrough is something special, maybe play for a few hours before deciding what improvements the game needs.
>>483936667Reactive World and Living World.They both make the world state change based on your actions.
Having more attack slots kept him locked down despite the huge difference in levels, I worry about how this fight would have gone down in vanilla.
With all these cannibal chiefs we got over a 100k in bounties.
Sadneil gave us some of his wisdom after our most dangerous journey yet.
I wonder what this is useful for. Perhaps I'll get reinforcements if I build a base in the Cannibal Plains.
I fed the worst mesh in game (no exaggeration) to AI and I think it choked.
>>483950425>to AI and I think it choked.the Bong's spaghetti coding knows no limits when it comes to this>>483949537One way to find out.
>>483950425>>483950590Coding has nothing to do with this.blue - faces pointing in the correct directionred - faces pointing away (invisible in game)zfighting - MULTIPLE OVERLAPPING FACES IN THE SAME SPOT

>>483950425>>483950663I wasn't the one to find this abhorrence, was merely made aware of it by someone else.
>>483950857Worse.A fully modelled vulva, clitoris, hood, and anus that may or may not milk the player dry and give you a 50% chance to not move in-game due to staring too hard.This debuff does also apply to enemies.
That is all.
>>483951296What is the blue and purple?I've never done stuff with normal maps and I assume it's that?What what the actual fuck is that amount of faces on each area holy shit.
>>483951740Oh I see. Chris...
>>483952932explained in >>483950663
>>483953035Yeah I'm blind and saw it .2 seconds after I hit the reply button.That said, normal/diffuse maps and the associated stuff beyond the basic applied texture are still wizardry to me.
>>483925627>I usually suffer through not having the move tool centred on the object I'm working with but I figured you know the shortcut/way to fix it.Tl;dr: Gizmo in object mode always appears at the object's origin point.I would generally advise you use G, R and S shortcuts rather than that shitty gizmo. I never went back once I started using those. Personally, I don't edit meshes outside of Edit Mode either. Just select a choonk of vertices and move them, makes snapping much easier and doesn't require applying transforms when exporting (though that's a non-issue for Kenshi).If you want to reposition gizmo for whatever reason, vidrel. You summon the 3D Cursor context menu using Shift+S. Can move it precisely (along axes) in the menu on the right.To ensure responses, reply to me directly with questions, I don't read everything at all times.
dropped muh cube
>>483953885>>483953989Goddamn, thanks.Crazy how you try and find the problem online and it's like no one has ever had that one small issue.
>>483954132Again, try using G for Move.
>>483950663>>483951296How can one man be so incompetent?
>>483954392I don't like that it moves it on all three axis all willy nilly.But R and S will be handy.
>>483954642Press X, Y or Z while performing virtually any operation (like moving with snapping and UV mapping) to restrict it to that axis. Press Shift+X, Y or Z to restrict the operation to the other two axes.
>>483955385Alright, I might bugger about with that a little.
>>483953146>NormalsWell there are mesh Normals and Normal Maps. Meshes have basic normal data for the angle at which the light reflects off the surface (face and edge angles afaik, keep in mind this is extremely simplified and 5 mathematicians are on their way to my home for just typing this out) and Normal Maps are texture maps that add additional normal data for each pixel. All those magentas and purples (actually red and green channels only, blue is always 255) are just extra angle data for the engine when it's time for rendering BELLY BUTTON. The idea is to have SIMPLE meshes for games, with details baked into textures and normal maps. That is why 32K polygon mesh for a character is so atrocious. Half of those triangles don't make a difference, but they cost processing power.For some reason the character normals are in different format, they use Green (iirc) and Alpha channels. It's not done for any particular reason and ONLY present in character models, despite \data\character\skins\hu\ folder containing old, unused standard normals for characters. You have Chris to thank for that.>DiffuseJust texture. I think you know how to plug those into blender now?
>>483955734Stop posting seductive images, I'm trying to focus.
>>483956406Aye, and I see.I always got that meshes should be fairly conservative with polys when you can have texture work carry the bulk.But lighting data and such is... odd. I'm guessing it's not something some cunt spends 20 years painting over a drawn texture with... right? There's a way to just click a button on a 3D model and auto-generate that normal map like a static noise map, right?
>>483908195Not at all, the most basic inner workings of biological lifeforms is not that different from those of a machine, we could be classified as very very complex organic machines. You feel emotions because an external stimulus makes your neurons give the order to make a certain chemical reaction and that chemical reaction in turn makes your neurons fire a certain way, not much different from a machine having a "sad" trigger.Which is why if we ever build machines capable of properly simulating emotions, those simulated emotions will be just as real as our own even though most people will label them as fake.
>>483956643Tl;dr yes, normal maps are generated from topology and/or material data automatically. I have never generated a normal map the way that "pros" do it. The way they do about it is more or less:>Make an extremely detailed high-poly model (don't know the actual level of detail they go for or how they do materials)>Break it down into low-poly model>Bake normals from difference between high poly and low poly model onto the low poly UV map.Software generates the normals from topology, basically.What I've done with the sword was generating a texture and using it's black-and-white layer (overcomplicated shit, hate material generation) as a bump map (exactly what it says) and then baked it into normal map. Which resulted in normal map being generated from object topology (bad) and the bump data (good). I somehow, magically destroyed all of the sword's normals which resulted in smooth mesh normals (so no influence) and then it baked into picrel (bump normals).
>>483956606You aren't a footcoomer, aren't you?
>>483958952There are no feet in the picture?
>>483960654Juri is adored by the footcoomers.
>>483962261So you can't find her face lewd without being a footcoomer?
Any good alternatives to bounty hunting?My third no-reload run in a row just ended due to my overconfidence and fucked up RNG. Again.I'm tired of patrolling the desert and the neutral zone, but this is the only not cheesy way to train the squad in the early game while you're making money.
>>483958294>>483956643>>Make an extremely detailed high-poly model (don't know the actual level of detail they go for or how they do materials)>>Break it down into low-poly modelThe other way around. You always make low poly-models first and copy that, because adding details is usually easier than removing them.Level of detail is depends on how big you want your textures to be and much you expect to see in the final product. It's not a problem for baking if it's too detailed, but it's a waste of time to make those details, if it can't be seen in the final product.Diffuse that match the normal maps (like if you have an indentation through normals an you want chipped of paint at its edges or something) are done similarly I believe. Make one of those smart materials by placing 50 nodes into the shader graph for the high-poly mesh. Then bake it onto the low-poly one.
>>483965006>Make one of those smart materials by placing 50 nodes into the shader graph for the high-poly mesh. Then bake it onto the low-poly one.I would rather kill myself.
>>483963089Nah. It's just poor Juri provokes a direct assosiation with derr footcoomers.
>>483965202Seems like you know a lot about this phenomenon
>>483965285One eternity ago I decided to look up Juri's fan art. All I saw were feet. Feet as far as eyes could see. I hate the footcoomers. I hate them more than I hate Chris.
>>483965202>footcoomers
So bad news on the animation fix. I've done half of my homework to confirm and filter information I've been given, and the sword bone is indeed partially dependent on the hand bone in the combat animations (specifically combat animations, IT'S FUCKING NORMAL IN NON-COMBAT ANIMATIONS. As in - it is cursed by some location offset from the hand that is hardcoded into the game... to only appear during combat animations.The X,Y position of the sword is partially determined by the hand... Which means that even if I could unparent the sword from the hand (that removes the hand offset for some reason), it would still only contain a fraction of it's original X,Y motion.>>483965682>fan artHonestly what did you expect when the source material itself is blatant foot porn? Besides, aren't you the one who posted her this thread? I'm genuinely confused now.
>>483968131Had to tweak that picture to be more accurate. My brain can hardly comprehend this shit, lmao.
>>483968602In my defense, this is so incomprehensible, that when the sword should be perfectly aligned with the hand (my animations), it ends up on the palm of the hand and then slides ever so slightly around that area.
