First you need to install the 3Dmigoto base mod:

 

This one is required for mods to work.

 

I really need to include the 3DMigoto install and update in the manager itself it seems.

I'm sorry, I should've been more specific in my last post, I managed to get 3Dmigoto to work and other mods like the Gacha Demist, HUD removal and Norimaki recolor. What I'm mainly having trouble getting to work is the SwimsuitSwapper. This is the main mod I want to use.

Should work fine, just checked. What part gives you problems?

Well...I can install it with no problems, but when I load it up, the girls' nipples don't look right, see?

You need to install nude textures.

Oh, I knew something was missing, I think I might have the textures downloaded already but never installed them. Thanks.

I really like the MOD Manager, but need some improvements.

 

- AutoUpdate VVMod Manager

- Update for Mods

- Auto Apply 3DMigoto (3D Vision Mod v2.3 or later) if not present (and autoupdate for future versions)

 

For example the VVMM include in their online repository Costume Customizer Framework Mod 1.9.7 and the last version is 2.0.2 and some others mods looks similar not updated.

Thanks for the feedback! There's definitely a room for improvements and I'll plan to resume the development at some point (or maybe even release a source code?). I gathered some feedback and ideas from people and I have some myself so there's enough new stuff to make a new version.

- AutoUpdate VVMod Manager

This is probably won't happen since I have zero idea how to implement it and I doubt there will be many updates in the future. I can however make a notification or something that there's a new version available.

- Update for Mods

That's really hard to do since Mod Manager was made too late and we don't have universal mod standard. If every mod had a version number I could code Mod Manager to check this stuff but right now the most I can do is provide update check for Costume Customizer. 

For mod updates - I just have to reupload updated\fixed version every time, which can be a bit difficult when I take a pause and don't keep my eyes on the LL updates. It's very hard to keep track of all the things alone.

That's probably the most needed feature right now, yes. A lot of people were confused and I didn't provide much explanation about it, including it will help a lot.

Yes, it was my fault with CC, I finally updated it with the latest version.

Can someone explain what I'm supposed to do once a mod is installed... I am unable to see the mod in-game?

Make sure you have base mod installed first

 After that you just download mods and equip the modified outfit. If you downloaded and installed mod while game was running you need to refresh mods with F10.

You need to download and install Base Mod first

After that you can use Mod Manager. Simply select the Mods folder inside your Venus Vacation folder and after that you can download mods from Mod Manager and activate\deactivate them.

However, the recent update did break a lot of mods and I currently have no time to check how much stuff is broken, so keep that in mind.

Venus Vacation Mod Maker 0.1

 

 

A simple tool to create basic mods for Venus Vacation. With this app you can hide different parts of the outfit based on the hash and index number.
Results are heavily depend on the outfit so keep that in mind.

 

How to use:

 

- IMPORTANT: Put VV_ModMaker.exe in your Venus Vacation folder.
- In game enable hunting mode and make a frame dump of the outfit you want to modify.
- In Mod Maker click on the Load button.
- Find the hashes of the outfit using 3DMigoto's hunting mode.
- Check the hashes you want to skip, mod file will be automatically created in Mods\ModMaker\[mod_name] directory.

 

This is just a quick idea for the app so it may crash or be bugged.

 

For more information about the modding I recommend amazing tutorial from DarkStarSword:

Venus Vacation Mod Maker v0.3

 

 

Made a new version, now with much more options. Now you can create mods without writing code at all!

In the video I'm replicating a swap mod code from scratch using Mod Maker, takes only a couple of minutes for a fully functional ini file with hot keys support and proper models/texture swaps.

I added the ability to assign a hotkeys for any hash, so you can enable and disable different hashes with different buttons if you want. I also added resource management, so you can just select your textures and IB files and use them in the app. But since I don't work with models often I maybe missed something, so please let me know.

 

in v0.3

- hotkeys support added

- resource management added

 

Hope you'll find this tool useful.

What you've been able to do with your Mod Manager alone is fantastic and I absolutely love that you've decided to make a tool that makes basic modding just that much easier, simpler, and quicker. Thank you and keep up the great work! ?

And here I thought the Mod Manager was groundbreaking.

 

Still, some sort of more knowledge is needed, as trying to swap a default body to a modded one only ends up with a distorted abomination. That's not a fault of yours, of course.

excuse me, thx for making great tool, i tried your mod maker and i got this error message when i'm load resource then right click in the hash list, i try this with steam ver, maybe i must try with dmm version later.
sorry for my bad english

edit: yeah it work fine with dmm version, i don't get those error message

[kassarc16]

Seems like it's adding a fmt file that does it.

 

In fact, I bet that not having those files might be breaking my attempted mods.  Actually, who knows.

If you encounter such erros please expand the Details section so I can see the error message.

For Steam version the issue might be a lack of administrator rights.

Also, currently Mod Maker doesn't process the .fmt files. I saw them in some mods' files but I don't think they're used in actual mods? Correct me if I'm wrong and those are actually can be used in code, I'll add them to the editor.

 In game enable hunting mode and make a frame dump of the outfit you want to modify.

I don't know how to activate hunting mode, and how to make the screen

You need to set hunting=2 in your d3dx.ini (it's 0 by default). Then ingame you press 0 on the numpad to activate it. F8 will dump the current objects on screen, you can use numpad buttons to cycle through hashes.

You should watch tutorial from DarkStartSword, it has all the knowledge required to start making mods.

Thanks a lot it works. I would like to ask you one last thing. Why does it leave holes underneath?

That's how models are made in VV, each outfit has different body model. If you want to make a topless mode you need to prepare a proper body model to replace the one with holes. You really should watch that tutorial video, everything is explained there.

[ssmith]

ok,thanks.I saw the tutorial, too complicated for me.

However very useful program. If it changed body meshes automatically it would be perfect

Venus Vacation Mod Maker v0.4

 

 

Added the textures to the list since sometimes you want to override a specific texture. Also now selected buttons and resources are checked in the right click menu, so it's easy to check buttons and resources applied to the hash.

How convenient can it ultimately be? Is it just code?
