I don't think anyone is capable of modding any Wayforward games at all. I remember asking for a nude mod of Shantae HGH when it came out, people wanted it, but no one even knew where to begin.

i don't know about the Shantae games but i know river city girls is made with unity so it should be as easy as any other unity game

Ah. Then I guess the matter is workload, then. The Shantae games don't run on Unity. At least, the Unity logo doesn't show.

Shantae and the Seven Sirens use the wayforward engine

 

since river city girls uses unity i am surprised no one has made nsfw mods for it

I had planned on doing a pantyshot mod (basically redrawing the sprites of the girls in skirts to have, you guessed it, visible panties.) but I couldn't figure out how to reinsert the sprites into sharedassets0. If someone can figure out how to reimport them let me know. I got a lot of time on my hands lel.

I also was planning on trying my hand on editing the sauna.

Cool. Now I have the .DAT files, but I have no clue how to extract them.

Alright here goes some insights.....

There are 3 ways to mods this game....
3Dmigoto;

BepInEx texture replace plugin;
Manual Resource replacement. Current method Hugh is using.

You don't look for the sprite itself you look for spritesheet/atlas which are texture2D.
Use unity studio to browser through and extract the textures you want.
Use UABEA to reimport then back.

Note that there are a lot of sprites if you intend to 'lewdfy' them.

3Dmigoto needs more technical expertise so I'll skip it.
BepInEx plugin works by hooking the texture and replacing them however you can only get the textures when you're at the 'scene'.

I've already cleared this game. Gonna download it again and create a simple texture mod so you can use it as sample.

That'd be helpful, I know how to draw.

So I've lately developed a thing for beat em ups and as a side note I really like boobs. Thankfully Streets of Rage 4 and Shredder's Revenge both have lovely mods to satisfy both likes. I recently picked up River City Girls and I can't find any kind of mods for it anywhere, boob related or otherwise. Is the game unmodable? Or was there just no interest? It seems like the perfect game as both protagonists are female and 18+ did I miss something?

https://hotpink.itch.io/lewd-city-girls Does this count? I'm not sure if they actually modded the game itself or they just got its assets and did their own thing. AFAIK, it's pretty small, not a whole game really, but it's something.

[Sasquatcher]

Really, it might be best to just wait on River City Girls 2 to come out. IIRC, it should be out this year, kinda surprised it's not out yet. It'll have more girls and likely more attention when it releases.

this simple idea of changing her shorty shorts to panties is wonderful. if the whole modding thing works out for you I''ll be excited to give this mod a shot when finished.

The glory of progress. But in all actuality a lot of these animations go by quick so the panties are gonna be hard to appreciate unless I either
A: remove the skirt (this will make editing the sprites take much much longer.)

or 

B: Shorten the skirt and tweak a bunch of animations (Just as tedious as A)

either way I'm down to do both lel.

Did anyone find one, besides the paywall one?

as a fan of seeing panties all the time I vote A, even then I dont think B is worth that extra amount of work of just leaving a skirt on when removing it entirely can also help in making a nude mod down the line. (or better yet a panties only mod)

I am so for this. Personally, I'd be most excited about option b

[Guest]

 

It's basically a matter of do we go for subtlety or do we go for the full panty

 

I like pantyshots, but I also just like the idea of her being so ditzy she forgot to wear a skirt.

legit forgot to finish my thought

If I may make a suggestion, add a little bow on her panties, shes seems like the kind of person who would have one because it looks cute.

Keep in mind, these sprites are very small.

Oh lord this is Really cute. I like it alot. one always appreciates the smallest details.

if this full underwear option is in the works then ill be totally fine with option B of a short skirt. (tho Option A may be good to do just to have the legs/panties ready to have the skirt overlap for easier shortning)

[The Butler]

Sprites are extremely small and there are a ton of them to work.
So guys don't expect a lot of details from them.
ie:

The same thing for almost all sprite in this game.
And Mobs are slightly more complicated.

[Obligitury]

Man that is small, even more respect for Hugh neutron for all the effort he has put in so far.
