My nude mod is done, you can get it here. It comes in a few variants for meshes and textures you can mix and match however you want.

 

The body has jiggle physics for breasts and ass, but it might look off in certain occasions since it uses one of her belt bones for physics, so I was restricted by what I could do within Blender.

I tried my best to tone it down in a way that it was still noticeable during walking or running animations, but if it's still too much let me know.

 

 

 

Looks like we might need a mod update good sir @d00m92

looks like acme pulled a bethesda and broke everything with an update that no one wanted or asked for and that adds nothing meaningful(they brought back some cut content), best stick to 1.07 until @d00m92 comes back or do the hex edit

got any idea how dumb you sound?

how do you reapply the hex edit?

 

I don't know how you're "supposed" to do it, but I just googled "hex editor" and found one that works in a browser. Then I loaded the file they mentioned, searched for those hex strings in the "pre" section and changed them to what it says in the "post" section, saved the file, and everything works.

Man can you help me find the right line? I'm on steam deck, opened a hex file editor online, but I can't find the right lines with the combination 74 18 etc

Do you have a search function? It's a big file. I didn't really do anything special to find it. I just searched it the same way I would a text file, typing the string (with spaces) into the search bar, and the online editor I used found the strings just fine.

So, it really worked. For the bros that are on steam deck, or linux, just search for an app called "bless hex editor" on desktop mode, copy and paste the pre string on the "find" option on the app, and search for the right string (be aware that there are some strings that are similar to each other). When you find the right string, make the changes as described below. What a man doesn't do to see some boobies

Thanks for the mod! Woohoo!!!

 

HERE IS THE WAY TO MAKE MODS WORK:

 

For all who don't know how to open and edit HEX in an EXE file (and to those who have GoG version of the game such as myself, as PAK Unlocker doesn't seem to work on such, but only on Steam version.)

 

Edit: PAK Unlocker has been updated, it can now be able to use with the GoG version of the game, so this guide is no longer necessary for players who have such game version.

 

Edit 2nd: PAK Unlocker has been hidden by its author for quite some time now, and the game has been updated to 1.04.0000, so this guide has become relevant once again (I did it to such version, and it's working).

 

Edit 3rd: Game has been updated to 1.05.0000, and this guide still works.

 

Edit 4th: Game has been updated to 1.06.0000, and this guide no longer works, as it'll cause a T-Pose and uninteractable inputs.

 

Edit 5th: It was my negligence by spreading misinformation per Edit 4th in which my statement regarding the following guide causing T-Pose in-game. Such statement is FALSE because it was proven that actually the mod itself from the first page of this webpage was causing such an issue, not this guide.

There is a new mod released which can be seen in recent pages of this webpage. It is working and it is stongly recommended to use that one instead of that one in the first page, especially in the latest version and upcoming updates of the game.

 

Game has been updated to 1.07.0000, and this guide still works.

 

Edit 6th: Game has been updated to 1.08.0000, and this guide still works.

After updating, one should need to reapply the following procedure, as everytime the game updates, it is resetting everything edited to its default values.

 

1. Getting a HEX Editor:

 

Download and install Notepad ++.

 

Opening Notepad ++ will appear a new window, and above it, there should be a row of options, and in those include one called "Plugins".

 

Click the said option and a drop-down menu should appear, and in it is an option called "Plugins Admin...", so click it.

 

A new small Plugins Admin window should appear, and it contains a list of items with checkboxes beside them, so scroll down until you find "HEX Editor".

 

Tick the checkbox of the said item, and on the top-right area of the window, there should be an option called "Install".

 

Click the said option and upon the confirmation box, agree by clicking "OK", then Notepad ++ should restart (and make sure you're connected to the internet, for Notepad ++ to be able to sucessfully download and install HEX Editor plugin.).

 

2. Editing the game's executable via Notepad ++'s HEX Editor to make it able to use custom PAK files:

 

In the File Explorer window, navigate to the directory of the game (Not Asterigos.exe, but Genesis-Win64-Shipping.exe.).

 

The former is just a launcher and the latter is the actual executable, and that is the one we'll need to edit.

 

The said executable should be located in GOG/Asterigos\Genesis\Binaries\Win64\Genesis-Win64-Shipping.exe.

 

We should backup Genesis-Win64-Shipping.exe by copying and pasting it in the same directory, then rename it as Genesis-Win64-Shipping.exeBACKUP (agree to a prompt to change its file extension.).

 

Right-click again the said EXE (not thw one with "BACKUP"), and a drop-down menu should appear, so in it, click "Open via Notepad ++".

 

A new Notepad ++ window with gibberish characters should appear, and we need to fix that.

 

Clicking the option "Plugins" again above the row of options, a new option dubbed "HEX Editor" should show in a drop-down menu.

 

Hover your mouse arrow on the said option and another drop-down menu should show, then in it, an option dubbed "View in HEX" should be in it.

 

Click the said option, and the Notepad ++ window should show no longer gibberish characters, but a clean-looking columns and rows of characters.

 

Again, looking above the Notepad ++ window in a row of options, there's one dubbed "Search", and clicking it, a drop-down menu should appear.

 

In the said menu, another option called "Find..." there is, so by clicking it, a small Find window should appear.

 

In the long, rectangular box of the said window, type the following:

 

74 18 48 8B 08 48 85 C9 74 10 48 8B 01 FF 50

 

Then click option "Find Next".

 

In the large window with columns and rows of characters, a highlighted area of the same you've typed before should show.

 

In the said highlighted area, replace "74" with "75".

 

Then once again on the small Find window, repeat, this time typing the following:

 

41 88 45 30 4C 8B 3D

 

Then, once again in the highlighted area, replace "41", "88", "45", and "30" with "90".

 

Once you are done, again above on the row of options, click "File", then on the drop-down menu, click "Save".

 

Lastly, close the window.

 

We should have successfully edited the HEX of the game's EXE so it should now be able to use modded PAK files, such as the mod above, which we'll be installing now.

 

3. Installing the mod:

 

Download the mod.

 

Download and install 7-Zip.

 

In the File Explorer Window, navigate to GOG/Asterigos\Genesis\Contents\Paks.

 

Leaving the said window open, create another File Explorer window and navigate to the directory of your downloads, as that is where the location of your downloaded mod is.

 

Right-click the mod and on the drop-down menu, hover your mouse arrow to "7-Zip", then on another drop-down menu, click "Extract Here".

 

A new 7-Zip window should appear, showing the progress of extracting files from the archive.

 

After extraction completion, close the newly-appeared 7-Zip window and in File Explorer's, there should be new PAK files.

 

Copy the said PAK files and paste them into GOG/Asterigos\Genesis\Contents\Paks.

 

4. Launch the game and enjoy being a disgusting person such as I am.

Bumping this to the latest thread, for those who want to make mods work.

Edit: Meant to say 1.08.0000.

Yeah, you need to save over the old file in the folder where you found it. Since the editor I used was a web editor, Chrome didn't like me saving executables or saving any files at all to that folder, which was mildly annoying, so I saved it somewhere else with a .txt extension and then moved it and renamed it to the original filename.

You have to overwrite it dude. It's the EXE to play the game. Without that EXE, the game will not function at all. Just like any other program on windows.

 

I mean what kind of question is that?
