It doesn't work on GOG for me. Probably won't work with Epic either. It works on the original Steam files but doesn't work after the EXE is modified to be cracked. So mostly likely only for the legit Steam release.

Anyone tried if that working with Epic version?

Tested on Asterigos: Curse of the Stars Anniversary version from Rune (v 1.08) and everything worked there.This repack based on Steam version,so i guess Steam is working,just not sure about Epic.

Question for d00m92: Would it be possible to get the other costumes with the two other body types?

Thanks for the mod! Woohoo!!!

 

HERE IS THE WAY TO MAKE MODS WORK:

 

For all who do not 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 does not 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 inputs unable to work.

 

Edit 5th: It was my negligence by spreading misinformation per Edit 4th in which my statement regarding the following guide causing T-Pose nd inputs not working 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.

It is working very well and it is strongly recommended to use that one instead, 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 every time the game updates, it is resetting everything edited to its default values.

 

Edit 7th: Game has been updated to 1.09.0000, and this guide still works for all Steam, GoG, and Epic shops of the game.

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

 

1. Getting a HEX Editor:

 

Download and install Notepad++.

This should be pretty straightforward.

 

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 check boxes 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 close, then restarts.

And make sure you are connected to the internet, for Notepad++ to be able to successfully 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, as 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.

A new small window should appear, and within it, a prompt to change its file extension, so agree to it by clicking "OK".

 

Right-click again the said EXE, not the 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 are going 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".

You can do this by clicking "74", then just type "75".

Editing HEX is not the same as editing a .TXT file like using backspace to erase what the cursor points.

 

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".

Do the previous step one-by-one by clicking "41", then just type "90", then click "88" then just type "90", then click "45" then just type "90", and lastly, click "30" then just type "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.

This should be pretty straightforward.

 

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

 

Create a new folder named "~mods" in the said location.

 

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\~mods.

 

Then launch the game and enjoy being a disgusting person such as I am.

Amazing!! Thankyou so much! I never knew Notepad++ could Hexedit. You have saved me much trouble.

 

Big props to you and Doom for the amazing work!

Absolutely, it was just a quick and dirty edit but I've polished it up a little and it should be good enough to play with now. There's still room for improvement but right now I'm focusing on making a nude model I can hopefully use as a base for other outfits.

 

 

As always put everything inside Asterigos\Genesis\Content\Paks\~mods\.

The packchunk95 files are for making her scabbard invisible, you can omit those if you don't want it or if you're using the same mod that was posted earlier in the thread.

Yes. Read this text file. Search for the "before" string and change it to the "after" string. There are two of them to modify.

While it’s great to see nude mod working again.
But strange and sad to see there aren’t any other cosmetics mods for this game yet like more revealing outfits like primitive Amazon style and nude for npc type mods and especially accessories type mods like custom hairs . Could someone manage to make long hair mod for her ?

That's 2023 news.

[knife_at_night]

Hi folks.

 

New to this forum.  I was linked here by someone on the nexusmods site and they mentioned there is a mod to remove Hilda's sheath from her back.  I am eager to install this mod and was wondering if someone can point me in the right direction. 

 

Is there simply a file I need to download?  Or is there also some hex editing needed?  I have Notepad++ and I am fairly familiar with modding games. 

 

Any help is appreciated. 

 

Thank you for your time.

[knife_at_night]

okay, I followed the above instructions and hex edited my Genesis-Win64-Shipping.exe to the described values.  Now I just need the sheath mod.  Is it still available?

[knife_at_night]

It works!!

 

Thank you Emilai and Greedo75!!  😃 ❤️

 

No more ugly sheath!! 

 

 

[2scoop]

Tried this last year and got T posed nude, using the "boots only" mod.
Tried this again last night, downloaded everything fresh and got very playable Hilda, default outfit with none of my new mods that should've been equipped. This time I have old mod deleted and "slim nude Hilda" in the ~mods folder. I'm using the Steam version. I entered hex code already. Now I can't find old code using "find" but also I can't find my new edit using "find" either. Perhaps this is a significant clue? I've deleted everything already and redone the entire process with same result already.
Any ideas on why I'm still failing? Thanks in advance.
