Guest Posted April 3, 2023 Posted April 3, 2023 That's great, but...I'm pretty sure that doesn't work without the 1GB mod patch. ?

Man, that really explains everything. I recently started BR and BR Second Light and came browsing LL for mods starting with BR's thread first. I remember seeing this guy's posts with no download links. Now I get why. What a real shame.

I was able to use this to mod my game Leaving this message incase it helps anyone 1. Download the mod above, I am not gonna repost it, its not mine and I don't wanna be that guy incase the author doesn't like that(not shaming the guy who shared it but I dont know ParaPara's preferences and he took down all of his mods) 2. Extract Pack00_02 with Gust tools or something similar into the data folder(Gust tools is linked somewhere in this topic, and alot of other places its not hard to find) 4. Move Pack00_02 or rename it so the game doesn't try and load it instead of the files you just extracted 5. Extract Parapara's mod into the game directory (the place where your .exe to launch the game is) 6. a) Pressing 1 turns off the girls shirts b) pressing two disables the girls panties c) pressing three does something to do with their transformations I think d) pressing 4 hides their skirts That's about it you just launch the game and go if it seems like its not working press F1 for help if that doesn't work you probably messed up somewhere, if it seems like its partially working press F10, and lastly I have noticed that in this early version of the mod (he released up to Ver.4, I dont have it) some of the intended outfits dont have the top removed you may need to change the girls outfits for it work (you have to finish the prologue) Two additional notes, I would appreciate someone uploading a more recent version of Parapara's mod if that's okay, again I don't want to upset him, second if you need more information on how all this works there were a few detailed guides I used as reference. I share this all not being a modder this is all just personal experience if you have any questions I probably cant and wont respond, I just shared this info to be nice.

Popular Post TrueShining Posted May 9, 2023 Popular Post Posted May 9, 2023 (edited) Fortunately, I managed to save all of the latest versions of Parapara's mods for this game before they were deleted so I will share them in the attachments below. I will now explain how to install these mods below in case if anyone does not know how to do so. 1) Firstly, use gust_pak from the latest version of Gust Tools to unpack PACK00_02.PAK. 2) Then, move the character folder from the unpacked PACK00_02.PAK to the game's Data/x64 directory. 3) After that, move the PACK00_02.PAK file to another folder on your computer or rename it. 4) Finally, install the mods in the order stated below by extracting the contents of the archive specified in each step to the folder where your game is installed and overwrite any files when prompted to do so. 5) Install [BRT] Parapara Base Mod 6) Install [BRT] Parapara Reflector Mod 7) Install [BRT] Parapara Swimsuit Mod 8. Install [BRT] School Swimsuit Nude Mod 9) Install [BRT] Hinako RIF NO Skirt Original Colours 10) Install [BRT] Hiori RIF NO Skirt Original Colours 11) Install [BRT] MIYO Dog Add 12) Install [BRT] KIRARA Dog FIX 13) Install [BRT] Parapara Base Mod FIX 14) Install [BRT] HINAKO DOG FIX 15) Install [BRT] Cat Maid Outfit No Skirt MOD Instructions on how to use the mods are provided below: (Key 1 toggles the skirts and tops of the characters in the following order: Normal Skirt → Micro Skirt → No skirt → No Top And Skirt) (Key 2 toggles the characters' underwear on and off) (Key 3 toggles the Reflector characters' costumes when transformed on and off) (Key 5 toggles the bra/pants/accessories of the Beachside Puppies swimsuits of the characters on and off in the following order: Normal Swimsuit → Swimsuit Without Pants/Accessories → Swimsuit Without Bra And Pants/Accessories) There are a number of things to take note of: 1) Make sure that your game version is version 1.04 and that you have all of the game's DLCs before installing the mods. Otherwise, the mods might not work. 2) Always reset the mod with Ctrl+Alt+F10 the first time you start the game after installing them. This is because the settings of the various switching keys may be misaligned. 3) In regards to Ao and Rena, you have to unlock the Locker Room and change their outfits to their summer uniforms before you can make them fully naked. The locker room should be unlocked shortly after the start of chapter 3 of the game. 4) The purpose of the [BRT] Hinako RIF NO Skirt Original Colours mod which White and black panda created is to restore the original colours of Hinako's Reflector form. 5) The purpose of the [BRT] Hiori RIF NO Skirt Original Colours mod which White and black panda created is to restore the original colours of Hiori's Reflector form. 6) If you do not want to restore the original colours of both Hinako's and Hiori's Reflector forms, do not install the [BRT] Hinako RIF NO Skirt Original Colours and [BRT] Hiori RIF NO Skirt Original Colours mods. 7) If you want to restore the original colours of Hinako's Reflector form but do not want to restore the original colours of Hiori's Reflector form, do not install the [BRT] Hiori RIF NO Skirt Original Colours mod. 8. If you do not want the nude school swimsuits of the characters, do not install the [BRT] School Swimsuit Nude Mod which White and black panda created since there is no on/off function for this mod. 9) If you do not want to change the design of Mio's Beachside Puppy swimsuit, do not install the [BRT] MIYO Dog Add mod which White and black panda created. 10) If you do not want the no skirt versions of the Hospitable Kitties costumes of the characters, do not install the [BRT] Cat Maid Outfit No Skirt MOD which White and black panda created since there is no on/off function for this mod. 11) There is no need to download and install any archives below that is not mentioned in the instructions above because those archives are redundant. Refer to this post for more detailed instructions on how to install the mods. If anyone has any questions about the mods, I am afraid you would have to ask someone else for help because I am not exactly the most experienced person when it comes to installing mods or troubleshooting them. The reason why I decided to share these mods is because that I wish to help the people who want to use these mods but cannot do so because they were taken down. In case if you are reading this post Parapara, I do not mean any disrespect to you by sharing your mods after you have taken them down. I am thankful to you for sharing all of your mods previously and also for the help you provided me in resolving my issues with your mods. However, I noticed that there are a number of people who wish to use your mods in Blue Reflection Second Light but are unable to do so because you have already taken them down. For that reason, I simply wanted to help those people by sharing your mods with them and I do not mean any offense to you by doing so. Therefore, I hope that you do not take any offense with my actions and I thank you for your understanding.

Any assistance would be appreciated. Have you unlocked the locker room yet? You need to unlock the locker room during chapter 3 of the game and change the characters to their Beachside Puppy swimsuits if you want to use key 4 to remove their tops when they are wearing the Beachside Puppy costumes. On the other hand, if you want to remove the uniform tops of the characters, you just need to press key 1 four times and it should remove their uniform tops. In the case of Ao and Rena, you need to make sure that you first change them to their summer uniforms so that you can remove their uniform tops. Other things to take note of is to ensure that your game version is version 1.04 and that you have all of the game's DLCs before installing the mods. Otherwise, the mods might not work. In addition, always reset the mod with Ctrl+Alt+F10 the first time you start the game after installing them. This is because the settings of the various switching keys may be misaligned.

So I purchased the Season Pass. The content was installed. I re-did the mod injection/unpacking steps and made it to the "changing room" level. Everything works as it should. Amazing! Thank you so much for responding.

Thanks a lot in advance I am not too sure how to return Hinako's reflector form back to its original colours but you can try replacing the entire HINAKO_RIF_NO_Skirt folder with the folder of the same name from the RIF_NO_Skirt.rar archive located in the [BRSL] Reflector No Skirt & Nude archive. If that does not resolve your issue, try replacing the entire HINAKO_RIF_NO_Skirt folder with the folder of the same name from the 1380829774_BRTParaparaMODFinal archive. I have not tested either of these two solutions myself so I have no idea if they work but you can consider trying them to see if it fixes this issue. Why did you only replace the 048.dds in the pc000_scl_summer.g1t (Ao underwear .dds) in the character folder?

However, if you apply it, you will be unable to make the other Reflector characters naked. I will state the instructions of how to apply the aforementioned solution below. 1) Delete the RIF_NO_Skirt folder. 2) Extract the RIF_NO_Skirt folder from the 1380829774_BRTParaparaMODFinal archive to the Mods folder. 3) Overwrite the contents of the RIF_NO_Skirt Folder with the contents of the RIF_NO_Skirt.rar achive from the 1091611330_BRTParaparaMODFix archive. 4) Overwrite RENA_RIF.ini in \BLUE REFLECTION Second Light\Mods\RIF_NO_Skirt\RENA_RIF_NO_Skirt with [BRT] RENA_RIF. It seems that the reason behind why the underwear for Hinako's Reflector form remaining black has something to do with 5 of the folders in the [BRT] Reflector No Skirt & Nude archive from what I tested. These 5 folders are the AO_RIF_NO_Skirt, HIORI_RIF_NO_Skirt, KOKORO_RIF_NO_Skirt, RENA_RIF_NO_Skirt and SHIHO_RIF_NO_Skirt folders. Of these 5 folders, I suspect that the HIORI_RIF_NO_Skirt folder might be the main reason behind why the underwear for Hinako's Reflector form remains black. This is because that besides Hinako, Hiori is the only other character whose Reflector form's colours are changed. In fact, the first time Parapara shared the mod for the 2 characters' black reflector forms is in this post and in the post above it, you can see that he created them around the same time as well. For that reason, I believe that if you are somehow able to restore Hiori's Reflector form original colours, you should be able to restore all of the original colours of Hinako's Reflector form. I have not tested if this solution works but you might want to give this a try. One possible way to go about doing this is stated below. 1) Delete the RIF_NO_Skirt folder. 2) Extract the RIF_NO_Skirt folder from the 1380829774_BRTParaparaMODFinal archive to the Mods folder. 3) Overwrite the contents of the RIF_NO_Skirt Folder with the contents of the RIF_NO_Skirt.rar achive from the 1091611330_BRTParaparaMODFix archive. 4) Overwrite the AO_RIF_NO_Skirt, KOKORO_RIF_NO_Skirt, RENA_RIF_NO_Skirt and SHIHO_RIF_NO_Skirt folders in the RIF_NO_Skirt Folder with the folders of the same name in the [BRT] Reflector No Skirt & Nude archive. 4) Overwrite RENA_RIF.ini in \BLUE REFLECTION Second Light\Mods\RIF_NO_Skirt\RENA_RIF_NO_Skirt with [BRT] RENA_RIF. It is not the best possible way to go about doing this since you will not be able to make Hiori's Reflector form naked but it might fix the problem of the underwear for Hinako's Reflector form remaining black. I am not sure how to make Ao's underwear disappear if you change the texture of her underwear but I believe that solving such a problem is beyond my capabilities since this is something that requires actual mod creation knowledge which I do not possess. Perhaps you might want to ask for a solution for this issue at the atelier reddit, the blue reflection reddit or their respective discord channels since there is a higher chance that you might be able to find someone with actual mod creation knowledge to help you at those places. On a side note, did you notice faint shadows on some parts of Hinako's body where the textures of her Reflector outfit used to be if you make her Reflector form naked? An example of this can be seen on Hinako's upper back in 2 of the screenshots you shared previously. I believe that another example can be seen around her stomach area as well. While I do not have a screenshot of this example but it looks something like the faint shadow you can see in the area between under Hiori's breasts and above her underwear in this image. If you have a solution for this issue, I would greatly appreciate it if you could share it with me. Edited August 17, 2023 by TrueShining 2

The file you provided successfully fixed the issue of the faint shadows on some parts of the body of Hinako's Reflector form I mentioned previously. Thank you very much for the help. I had also confirmed that the reason why the panties of Hinako's Reflector form remains black is indeed due to the HIORI_RIF_NO_Skirt folder from the [BRT] Reflector No Skirt & Nude archive after further testing. Therefore, until someone finds a way to restore the original colours of Hiori's Reflector form, the only way to fully restore the original colours of Hinako's Reflector form is to implement the solution I mentioned in my previous post. By the way, there is no problem with the textures of Hiori's Reflector form. The screenshot I provided previously showing the example of faint shadows on the stomach of Hiori's Reflector form is just for reference purposes since I did not manage to capture a screenshot of the same problem with Hinako's Reflector form. For your information, that screenshot of Hiori is from an older version of the Black Reflector outfits mod that Parapara created in which the faint shadows issue on Hiori's Reflector form had already been fixed in the latest version of his mod I uploaded in one of my previous posts. My apologies if this resulted in any confusion on your part. On another note, I noticed there are some leftover textures from the bra of Mio's Beachside Puppy costume on Mio's back if her bra is toggled off. It is not exactly obvious in some poses since her hair obscures these leftover textures from view but when she is in certain poses, you can clearly see these leftover textures. I provided 2 screenshots below for reference purposes. If you know how to fix this issue, I would greatly appreciate it if you could share your solution with me. Honestly speaking, it would indeed be perfect to learn how to make an .ini file that overwrites the desired textures and toggles them on and off between various states. If I learned how to do that, I would enhance the mod's function that allows the Reflector characters' costumes when transformed to be toggled to now toggle between the different versions of their Reflector costumes in the following order: Normal Skirt → No Skirt → No Skirt Modified → Naked. It is truly unfortunate that both Parapara and Moderchan retired since it does not appear there is any other modder who is as skilful as them when it comes to modding this game and hence would be able to teach us how to do the things that I mentioned above. We can only hope that someday another skilful modder comes along and teach us I guess. Edited August 29, 2023 by TrueShining 1

Therefore, until someone finds a way to restore the original colours of Hiori's Reflector form, the only way to fully restore the original colours of Hinako's Reflector form is to implement the solution I mentioned in my previous post. I'm pleased to announce that I've struck with the solution. all thanks to a user that I couldn't catch is name, his post was deleted for some reason, but in the short time the post was live, he mentioned a very crucial clue. The texture override for Hinako reflector underwear is tied to the Hash of the texture. So if you make any kind of modification (just as simple to put a single invisible dot) the texture's hash changes, and the overrides just brokes Through a very exhausting search, I managed to catch these post for texture extraction for Bullet Girl Phantasia mods, which shows how to extract the textures (thing we do using use gust tool) and most important, how to obtain the texture Hashes. With these values, I manage to modify the .ini in the NO_Pantsu mod and finally restore the naked mod for AO with my custom underwear texture and the other girls I've unlocked so far as well (still thinking about what texture to use for Hinako). Here are the results Hinako reflector colors restored (other girls just added for comparison) Spoiler and heroines with changed underwear textures (The ones I've unlocked so far, I'm still in the Hinako episode) Spoiler No idea why only Shiho keeps her bra in the partial nudity mod, I'll look into it later. Anyone who wants to use these partial mods is welcome, just replace the attached files in the root BR2 folder. It's important to mention that these files only work on a properly applied Parapara's mods and only for the normal (Kokoro, Yuki, Shiho) and summer (Ao, Rena) Non-wet uniforms.

This is what I've learned so far regarding .ini functionality. First and foremost, you MUST know the textures Hashes. A "Hash" is the ID the game assigns to a specific texture. All mods work using Hashes, so the mods know what to delete or override specifically. Luckily, the 3Dmigoto (Engine that makes all the mods work) provided by the Parapara's mods already comes with the commands for looking for Hashes. For the sake of simplicity here's the abridged version to perform a FrameAnalysis. For more detail refer to this post In the game, go to photo mode by pressing "N" Select the Character you want to dump the textures (preferably one at a time or you will end with a whole bunch of unnecessary files) Press NumPad0 Press NumPad1 or NumPad2 until the texture you wants to disappear, in this example clothing Spoiler 5. Press "F8" (the game might freeze for a while) 6. In the root BR2 folder you will find a new "FrameAnalysis-current-date" folder 7. In the folder ctx-bunch-of-numbers you will find all the textures (.dds file) 8. The texture hash will always be after the "="simbol. "3ab22e02" in this example for the underwear (you can open the .dds files to see the particular texture, but for some reason, my explorer just don't want to show the preview Spoiler Now we know what texture we want to mod let's go for the .ini file. For this, we will use the NO_Pantsu mod as reference (\Mods\NO_Pantsu\NO_Pantsu.ini) Quote ;;;;;;;;;; Common ;;;;;;;;;; Key [Constants] global persist $UI = 1 [KeyCycle] Key = no_shift no_ctrl no_alt 2 type = cycle $UI = 0,1 The semicolons are always comments, they execute nothing, if you want to disable a line of command, just add a semicolon at the beginning of the line The words between [Brackets] are commands. [Constants] and [KeyCycle] are self-explanatory Quote ;;;;;;;;;; AO_NO_Pantsu;;;; [TextureOverride_Mesh_AO_NO_Pantsu] if $UI == 1 hash = 3ab22e02 handling = skip endif [TextureOverride_ is the command, a simple misspelling in the commands will prompt an error in the game and the mod will be disabled. After the underscore is just a comment, you can add any nonsense and the mod will work just fine for example: [TextureOverride_Messssh_AO22_NO111_Pantsuxx] if $UI == 1 is the default value when opening the game. "1" when you open the game the mod will be enabled, and "0" the mod will be disabled when first running the game hash = 3ab22e02, is the texture hash that the mod will work on handling = skip, the command for making a texture disappear endif, the end of the command Now for replacing texture lets go to Mods\RIF_NO_Skirt\AO_RIF_NO_Skirt\AO_RIF for reference Quote ;;;;;;;;;; Replace AO_RIF [Resource_Tex_AO_RIF] filename = f0d6dba3-BC1_UNORM_SRGB.dds [TextureOverride_AO_RIF] hash = f0d6dba3 ps-t0 = Resource_Tex_AO_RIF [Resource_Tex_ is the command to create a function, after the underscore comes the name of the function (AO_RIF), in this case, what goes after the underscore is really important filename = f0d6dba3-BC1_UNORM_SRGB.dds, is the name of the new replacement texture. The texture MUST be in the same .ini folder and the name must match [TextureOverride_, is the command for replacing a texture, yet again, after the underscore is just a name of your liking only for your own reference hash = f0d6dba3, is the name of the texture to override, in this case, AO reflector texture ps-t0 = Resource_Tex_AO_RIF, this command will call the texture store in the function (Resource_Tex_AO_RIF), so the name must match any error in the replacement texture name will get you this result, as the mod will not find what to replace the old texture Spoiler And if you get the wrong texture Hash, nothing will happen, as the mod doesn't know what texture to override Quote [Resource_Tex_AO_RIF2] filename = f0db5741-BC1_UNORM_2.dds [TextureOverride_AO_RIF2] hash = f0db5741 ps-t2 = Resource_Tex_AO_RIF2 This line of code is for the very same but in this case for the body shadows, adding a simple semicolon to any line of code will get you this. Spoiler I usually just unpack the g1t file, modify what I want and repack it, so I just avoid calling the other layers that compose a fully functional texture (If you check the texture dump in the FrameAnalysis you will see a single texture can have 3-4 layers to properly function) Well, this is the bare bone of .ini functionality but I hope it helps you. The great thing about modding at .ini level is that you can apply the changes in game as you go without the need of closing the game. Just after you edit the .ini file, save the changes, go to the game, and press Ctr+Alt+F10 so the game can reload and apply the changes. Of course, all these examples were performed using the Parapara's mods as base. If you performs these simple modiffication to a clean BR2 install you won't see any nipples and a bunch of things will be broken, as the Parapara's mods modify a lot of things in the character models not just textures. If you manage to create something new o learn something else, I'd appreciate you share it Edited August 22, 2023 by Captaincookie68 1

Change Heroines underwear texture.rar 26.42 MB · Disabled by extension! Unfortunately, Hinako's original Reflector form colours are not fully restored with the Hinako restored colors.rar archive you provided. Her underwear still remains black. Upon further testing, I realized that a better potential solution to completely restore Hinako's Reflector form's original colours is to restore both Hinako's and Hiori's Reflector forms original colours. For example, if you rename f5c004b4-BC1_UNORM.dds to ed67a262-BC1_UNORM_SRGB after renaming the original ed67a262-BC1_UNORM_SRGB file in the HIORI_RIF_NO_Skirt located in the RIF_NO_Skirt folder, you can turn both Hinako's and Hiori's Reflector forms' panties white as shown in the first screenshot below. Of course, doing so would not completely restore the original colours of the panties of Hinako's Reflector form since it is in the wrong shade of white and the ribbons on her panties are white instead of pink. However, this proves my point that there is indeed a direct correlation between modifying the colours of Hiori's Reflector form and the colours of Hinako's Reflector form also being modified as an unintended consequence. Certain aspects of Parapara's mods can be interconnected in unexpected ways which is something he mentioned in more than one in his previous posts before he retired. For that reason, since I am sure we both want the original colours of Hiori's Reflector form restored as well, it would be best to also restore the original colours of her Reflector form as well. The HIORI_RIF_NO_Skirt ini file will be shared below for your reference. In regards to the leftover textures on Mio's Beachside Puppy costume, I have found a way to fix this particular issue. I created a mod that fixes this issue and makes it possible to toggle between the original versions of most of the characters' Beachside Puppy costumes and the versions of those costumes without their bikinis and accessories. The characters which my mod affects are Ao, Rena, Kirara and Mio. There was nothing to modify for Kokoro, Shiho, Hinako and Hiori since their costumes are left untouched by Parapara as they have no accessories to remove. A link to this mod is provided below. Originally, I also wanted to restore Uta's pants as well and make it possible to toggle her pants on and off alongside her bikini but apparently, I was unable to do so. It appears that a particular section of the UTA_Dog.ini file makes it possible to only toggle either her pants or her bikini on and off for some unknown reason after doing some testing on my part. I written the section of the file which I suspect is the reason behind this issue in the paragraph below. Strangely, it is also not possible to toggle the textures of Yuuki's pants on and off for some unknown reason even though her bra can be toggled on and off. If you have a solution for these 2 issues, I would appreciate it if you could share it with me. I shared both of the characters' .ini files below for your reference. [Resource_VB_UTA_Dog_13_2] type = Buffer stride = 68 filename = 13_2.vb [Resource_IB_UTA_Dog_13_2] type = Buffer format = DXGI_FORMAT_R16_UINT filename = 13_2.ib [TextureOverride_Mesh_UTA_Dog_13_2] ; hash of vb0 hash = fce27c08 if $UI == 2 match_first_index = 0 match_priority = -2 vb0 = Resource_VB_UTA_Dog_13_2 ib = Resource_IB_UTA_Dog_13_2 handling = skip drawindexed = auto endif On a related note, do you know how to sequence the toggling of individual textures in a certain way? For example, toggling the pants or accessories of the characters' Beachside Puppies costumes off first and then toggling their bikinis off afterwards in such a sequence? I would be able to improve this mod if I learnt how to do so. Another thing I would want to learn is how to conditionally skip the loading of some textures only if certain other textures are not loaded. This would be helpful in creating a mod which allows toggling between 4 different versions of the Reflector outfits for the Reflector characters since I noticed that there are some unnecessary textures that are loaded when toggling between the different versions of the Reflector outfits. One other issue I encountered is that Uta's stockings are discoloured for some reason. What I mean by this is that the colour of her stockings turned from black to brown. A screenshot of this is provided below and if you have a solution to this issue, I would appreciate it if you could share it with me. As an aside, if you are wondering why Parapara removed the bras for some of the characters who originally worn one, it is because that their bikinis could not fit the modified body meshes he created for the characters in question. It is a pity he done so though since the number of characters who lack bras increased as a result. Just out of curiosity, are you making custom bra textures for the characters besides making custom panties for them? I noticed that in your previous post there appears to be a texture of a bra alongside a panties texture in one of the images you shared. It is a good mod to make in my opinion since it feels weird that some characters like Ao, Kokoro and Rena lack bras even though they are wearing panties. The fact that such a mod would also enhance the functionality to toggle the characters' underwear on and off is also a nice additional benefit.
