huanrenfeng #1 Posted December 31, 2019 View File MuST - Multi-Stage Transformation Framework With this mod you can be whatever creature you want to be ! Also with an SSE version. Requirement: SkyUI SKSE NetImmerse Override / Racemenu JContainer ( newest version ) Notice: This mod nearly does nothing but an example. It needs modders or enthusiasts who want to make add-ons. The ability to edit JSON file is required. I maintain this mod in public. Support me in Patreon so you can get the best works of mine! : https://www.patreon.com/modderHuan Want to make your own preset but don't know how to do? Support me to get more support! It can cooperate with BaD "Being a Doggy" and other mods who want to do the transformation work. It works like Slavetats, using JSON. Mods who want to perform a transformation will provide add-on to this framework. The add-on mainly provide json files, textures, meshes and esp files only if nessasary. To change the contents, go to Data/MuST, check the readme file, then go to json folder, check the json files. To check your json format, use website like this one: https://jsonformatter.curiousconcept.com/ The readme file and example file are designed to help you understand the basic of the mod. Make sure you read them. To apply transformation on your character without any extra mods, go to MCM->MuST, click corresponding stage number. To begin with, I recommand you make a copy of the example file, rename it to something else, make some changes, check the json format using website mentioned before, and try it in MCM menu. I made an Skyrim SE version. There’s also a ppt file to introduce you to the mod Preset Demo: preset selection demo Mod Use Demo: Features: Armors, use armors to add ears, tails, etc. Textures,with alpha, color , glow, gloss, normalMap, sex use textures to add skin and tatoo. Weight, with storing and restoring the original weight Height, with storing and restoring the original height NodeScaleTransform , for example you can make your arms or legs thicker, longer or creepier. BodyMorphs Headparts , make the character's face looks like exactly what you want. Copy HairColors, FaceTextureSet, Skin ( Copying head in the SE version will cause "Gray Face Bug" and I didn't find a solution. ) Preset support. Different preset for different transformation mod and different stages, helping you become a monster progressively. To call the transforming event, use code like this: thisActor.SendModEvent("MuSTEvent",ModName,1) ModName shoule be equal to your JSON file name, without any suffix like ".json" or ".esp". If you have a JSON file called file1.json, then the ModName parameter should be file1. 1 is the stage index, staring from 0. Special Case: If you want to apply a texture to a male character, make sure you've added the sex entry to the texture entry. Read the readme file to see the example.

shadowwolf2k7 #2 Posted January 1 since the discription says that it borrows textures from slave tats and being a cow, would you recomend having those 2 mods in your load order until you finish your textures? also under the download section there a download which has a .pptx, is that needed as well? 0 Share this post Link to post

thanatos0 #6 Posted January 4 I can't seem to load textures, neither by relative nor by absolute path. Double checked the files paths and names and everything but couldn't get it to work. The rest works fine, it's just the textures that don't work. I use ModOrganizer, but also tried to put them in the main Data directory. Would you know what else I can try? 0 Share this post Link to post

First of all, what json file did you use. the doggyAutoFuck.json, doggyAutoFuck_example.json , or your own json files? Check your json file format using website like this JSON Formatter & Validator Second of all, is your character male or female? If your character is male, and if you havent specified the sex of a texture, you won't get your texture. You need to specify the sex to be male. Add these lines to your texture entry: "sex": 1. I set this rule because textures for males and females are different and the majority of players are using female characters. So if you use a female texture on a male character, you will see some visual issues. Third of all, what's your game version? I don't provide any support for SE version, because I don't have one. You can upload your file here, so we can examine the file for you. 0 Share this post Link to post

The character is female, but I tried with and without specifying it. Also I use Oldrim too. I know the file I attached is not complete with removing textures and stuff, but I didn't bother including that yet while adding the textures didn't seem to work for me. Also you'll notice the different formated paths, those were just for testing :) evolution.json 0 Share this post Link to post

Make sure you delete the invalid paths, and try again. Do you have any trace files? I'd like to see them.

Nope, there were some mistakes. For peoples who don't understand how to edit the json file, I reveal the content of your modified json file here and give it a review. The All contents are: { "version":"0.5.0", "stages":[ { "name":"human stage","weight":{"original":1},"height":{"original":1}, "AToUnE":[ {"modName":"Skyrim.esm","FormID":"0010594D"}, {"modName":"Skyrim.esm","FormID":"000d8d52"} ], "TToRemove":[ { "area": "Body", "path": "Textures\\MuST\\femaleMarkExample1.dds" }, { "area":"Face", "path":""}, { "area":"Hand", "path":""}, { "area":"Feet", "path":""} ], "NodeTransformScale":[ {"name":"NPC L Thigh [LThg]","remove":1} ] }, { "name":"doggy stage","weight":{"value":100,"saveOriginal":1}, "height":{"value":2,"saveOriginal":1}, "AToE":[ {"modName":"Devious Devices - Expansion.esm","FormID":"07026873"}, {"modName":"Devious Devices - Expansion.esm","FormID":"0703D2CD"}, {"modName":"Devious Devices - Expansion.esm","FormID":"0704F91A"}, {"modName":"Devious Devices - Expansion.esm","FormID":"070159A4"}, {"modName":"Sextoys Calyps - Enhanced.esp","FormID":"08000D7A"}, ], "TToAdd":[ { "area": "Body", "path": "Textures\\MuST\\femaleMarkExample1.dds", "color": 14540253 }, { "area":"Face", "path":""}, { "area":"Hand", "path":""}, { "area":"Feet", "path":""} ], "NodeTransformScale":[ {"name":"NPC L Thigh [LThg]","value":2} ] }, { "name":"some other stage example valid but not triggered yet in BAD", "weight":70, "readme about weight":"weight can be an object or a single float value which is between 0 - 100, if it is an object, saveOriginal will tell the MuST that the actor's weight right before this transforming stage will be saved; orignal will tell the mod to use the stored value as the new weight" } ] } Before you read my explanation, make sure you've read the readme file in MuST folder. I think I'm repeating some contents written there. Quote "AToE":[ {"modName":"Devious Devices - Expansion.esm","FormID":"07026873"}, Once you add something in AToE, you need to add the same entry in AToUnE in the "human stage", otherwise once the doggy is cured, it will still wear the equipment. There are also typing mistakes, copy your file to JSON Formatter & Validator We'll get these errors: Error:Invalid comma, expecting ]. Error:Expecting value, not ]. In Json file, we don't add extra "," at the last item of an array, After removing the ",", copy to the website and check again, then we can see we are all good. I mentioned all some of the explanation in the readme file and mentioned the readme file in the mod description. Next time I hope less people ignore my words.

That's the plan. Does that mean if I don't add the AToE armor to AToUnE the armor keeps equipped after doggy became human again? Try and error ftw.

This realy motivates to try more. tried the color settings, but they don't work with every slavetat. If the tat is incompatible to a color change it shows as pink (same as missing texture, that's why I think something went wrong from my side). Careful, it could be confirmation bias and I did something wrong. Need to test that again. 0 Share this post Link to post

Careful, it could be confirmation bias and I did something wrong. Need to test that again. Making a tat have color change is easy if you want to adjust it. Just open the .dds file of the tat in GIMP/photoshop (don't load mipmaps when asked, or this will take a bit longer). Go to "colors" choose "colorize" and click the colored bar. For the html notation put the number "444544" and hit okay. The color should switch to grayish black, but it's actually a sort of empty color that let's you change things. You may need to adjust lightness if it looks too dark. Too much lightness will make the glow very bright though. Then export as a .dds over the old version (or a new version with an adjusted json) and select the option to generate new mipmaps while saving. Done. It's a quicker process than this paragraph makes it look. Can be done for any tat. If you accidentally loaded mipmaps when opening either close out and open again, or change each one individually the same way. 1 Share this post Link to post
