Popular Post AmeroElessar Posted September 15, 2019 Popular Post Posted September 15, 2019 Hey, I've been working on decoding the file formats and such for SAO:HR (PC Deluxe Edition). I wanted to gauge the interest for an adult mod for this title, just to see if it's worth making a rather polished release or if I should just continue it as a personal project for my own enjoyment. It seems at least a handful are interested so far which is good enough for me. As far as I know, no other mods exist for this game and it's likely due to the difficulty in editing and reinjecting a lot of the files. As a workaround I'm currently repackaging the files uncompressed to help with stability, the downside is the mod file size will be larger than the whole game's installation (The download will be around 55GB at this stage). There's not much I can do about that right now, but I'll see if I can find a more user-friendly way of distributing the mod without the ridiculous size. What I can change at the moment: UI images Character images Backgrounds Scene Images (including 'pillow talk' scenes) All text *NEW* Character textures What I can't change... yet: 3D models Here's a current to-do list I will try to keep up-to-date: DONE Excplicit dating actions (replacing standard 'gaze longingly' and such) Main Menu art Character portraits and affection screen art for: Asuna Silica Explicit 'pillow talk' lead up conversation and art for: Asuna Silica Lisbeth Leafa Yuuki New responses to explicit dating actions for: Asuna TO DO FOR FIRST RELEASE Character portraits and affection screen art for: Lisbeth Leafa Sinon Strea Philia Argo Yuuki Kizmel Rain Alice Explicit 'pillow talk' lead up conversation and art for: Sinon Strea Philia Argo Kizmel Rain Alice 1st 'Pillow talk' scene rewritten to describe sexual talks/acts for: All FUTURE GOALS Complete pillow talk dialogue for the other 4 scenes for each girl Change some of the story events to be more explicit If reimporting models is even possible - New custom modelled base outfits for all girls and remodelled extra outfits to be revealing/semi nude. 1 costume will act as a 'nude' costume You may have noticed I left out Premiere, Tia, Yui and Seven. I can include them if people wish it, I just thought they looked too young (although 3 of those 4 are just AI to be fair). I've also left out male characters as I personally don't sway that way but if people want them included I'd be more than happy on the condition they supply me the materials I need. (PM for more info on that) There will likely be other bits and pieces thrown into the first version too. For example, Silica's conversation about hating tentacle monsters and how they are attracted to her is a bit more revealing about what they like to do Eventually I aim to replace all Pillow Talk dialogue as well as the romantic dating conversations (the ones at night or romantic locations) though they are a lot of work and the order of each line of dialogue they speak isn't in order in the game files meaning I need to screenshot every single line of dialogue they can speak in a specific conversaion, then cross reference it and be careful of any overlapping lines... If anyone is interested in helping, I'd be grateful. Mostly wouldn't mine a hand just with the writing parts since there's so much. Thanks 47
AmeroElessar Posted September 16, 2019 Author Posted September 16, 2019 Great to hear there's a few people interested! I've started compiling a proper to-do list and such to get it into a more organized state. I'll post updates every now and then as well as drop a picture here and there. I might not have custom pillow talk images and such for every girl for the first release as I've been struggling to find good images in some cases which means I'll be needing to edit the vanilla ones by hand. I'm a 3D artist by trade but I do have some drawing skills, just never tried this style so it'll take a bit to pick it up haha. One kinda big issue right now is the size of the download is going to be gargantuan as it's impossible to compress it on reimportation so the mod at this stage is like 55gb haha. I'll see if I can find a way to compress the package contents or something. EDIT: Updating first post to better reflect the goals and such. 7
StrayNeko Posted September 16, 2019 Posted September 16, 2019 I hate this game so much because the player is so easily getting stuck into the enemy or even the floor. Now I changed my mind.
AmeroElessar Posted September 17, 2019 Author Posted September 17, 2019 Quick update Been making some good progress on decoding the models and textures. I'm now able to do custom textures which is great. I still haven't been able to successfully reimport a custom asset correctly though but I'll keep working at it. Here's Sinon's outfit rendered in Maya 4
Hakufu1021 Posted September 17, 2019 Posted September 17, 2019 Nice! Keep up the good work. Look forward to seeing the progress!
AmeroElessar Posted September 19, 2019 Author Posted September 19, 2019 Hmm running into problems with custom textures, think I'll just leave them for now. I tried making some of the costumes more revealing yet for whatever reason the textures go super dark once edited and reimported. I have a hunch on what it could be but if I'm right it won't be editable at least anytime soon. I'll just continue with the static images and text stuff for the time being though

AmeroElessar Posted September 20, 2019 Author Posted September 20, 2019 It seems the submeshes have shaders assigned individually, as clothing pieces (like a bra for example) seem to be a separate submesh. from parts that are pure skin. The only reason I can see them really doing that is so the submesh itself is given either a skin or clothing shader. So trying to make clothing parts look like skin doesn't work well since it's still using the clothing shader. I'm assuming that's the case but I could be wrong. I'll revisit at some point to see if I can work it out. If I can find a submesh that contains clothing and skin together that would disprove the theory and mean something else, I'm just not sure what just yet. The other thing it could be is some kind of cached texture data stored somewhere, I'll have to do some snooping on the processor to see if I can find the exe grabbing data from any unexpected locations.
Link4720 Posted September 21, 2019 Posted September 21, 2019 I am interested. I cant do much but let me know if there is anyway I can help!
NarutoUchihaDabs Posted September 30, 2019 Posted September 30, 2019 100% Interested, i look forward to the release.
NovaRain Posted October 2, 2019 Posted October 2, 2019 Hi @AmeroElessar, If you interested, I've find some "cg_edits & bed scenes edits" on my old hdd. Someone are mine edits, others are from VA. Feel free to use it! When this game comes to pc, I've started to modding, but after short time I've loosed interesting to do it. So good luck to modding & please don't give up no matter what's happen! P.S. maybe some edits are from other SAO games. Cheers, NovaRain _SAO-tmp.rar
AmeroElessar Posted October 2, 2019 Author Posted October 2, 2019 Thanks @NovaRain , I'll check them out! I haven't had time to work on the mod the past week or so, been super busy with work unfortunately and I'll be away for a bit for me and my partner's 5 year anniversary, don't think she'd want me working on lewd mods on our trip haha. I'll keep working away whenever I find some free time though for sure!

I'll keep working away whenever I find some free time though for sure! LOL, happy anniversary. Ya, my wife is one of those women who porn equals betrayal to her. So, I have to enjoy nude mods when she's in bed. Otherwise, it's as if I cheated on her. (Can't even "release" due to her second pregnancy unless it's directly related to her. :S) Still love her to bits though but she has no clue what men think of when they masturbate. 1
NoVeXX Posted October 3, 2019 Posted October 3, 2019 dear sir, madame or otherwise gendered person, i never actually post but if this comes to be real i buy the game. pls consider me intrested. 1
madmonkskillz Posted October 16, 2019 Posted October 16, 2019 Glad to see something from this game, even if the mod's not released yet.
tigers Posted March 19, 2020 Posted March 19, 2020 Yeah but we are still waiting for a first release of the mod.
NovaRain Posted April 19, 2020 Posted April 19, 2020 Hi guys! I was trying some easy way to mods this gem, so I like how easy is mod the "Bullet Girl Phantasia" with 3DMigoto. I was installed it & then run. The main idea was make modding easier as possible - because now you must multiple time extract textures, convert edited, hex edit,..... and bla, bla, bla.... Using 3DMigoto will be good idea because this game has lots of outfits /graves /etc https://github.com/bo3b/3Dmigoto 3DMigoto is working very well. So You can try it! Test DEMO: Spoiler SAO HR_test_MODv0001.rar Cheers, NovaRain 4
NovaRain Posted April 19, 2020 Posted April 19, 2020 Skirtless mod test. This was done by skipping some mesh (on some graves this can be done - someone can' because skirt & shoes in one mesh). Spoiler
NovaRain Posted April 19, 2020 Posted April 19, 2020 Some another tests- Tamer & Sylph outfits: Spoiler Cheers, NovaRain
