A Very Basic Guide to Azur lane Modding


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello I've been working with Azur Lane mods for almost a year so if someone has a question about how to mod I can help.

Thanks, I figured it out. Everything works good.

As for the [shipyardicon] pictures, since some of the characters don't have one, how do we create one?

Shipyardicon files that aren't in the game folder can be found in the .obb zip of the game (Android/obb/com.YoStarEN.AzurLane), you can extract its contents like a normal zip and then go to the shipyardicon folder, there you can find the shipyard file of all the shipgirls. When you finish making the mod you can put the file in the normal shipyardicon folder, the game prioritizes files in that folder.

 

Also you can mod almost every picture in the game as long as you can find where it's stored, like loadingbg for the loading screens, login screen and gacha screens, etc.

在Android上没有办法实现这一点,或者只能在PC上?

what mean?put edited picture into files or  just redraw the picture?some mobile phone can use Windows system like xiaomi mix2 and other phones with 845 or 855 soc

There's a way to do this in android, or just pc?

You can mod the game in android and PC, but some android versions are a bit harder to mod than others. Iphon sadly doesn't let you to mod the game.

Anyone been able to replicate and produce mods for dynamic and L2D skins? and if so can anyone give me like a small crash course on how l2d skin mods work, I'm not getting how to turn the in game files into a png to edit, since Asset studio doesnt seem to work.

有人能够复制和制作动态和 L2D 皮肤的模组吗?如果可以的话,有人能给我上一堂关于 l2d 皮肤模组工作原理的速成课吗?我不知道如何将游戏内文件转换成 png 进行编辑,因为 Asset Studio 似乎不起作用。 

just few guy know that,and i don't know too,and they have quit ago.

You can do it just with UABE Avalonia but with AssetStudioGUI (AS) is a little easier.
->First you get the file of the skin you want to mod from the live2d folder (or the spinepainting folder for dynamic skins.)
->Extract the PNG with AssetStudioGUI v0.16.47 (this version works for me at least), by loading the file, going into the asset list tab, selecting texture2d in the "Filter Type" option then rigth clicking texture_00 (dynamic skins have more than one texture file, select all the textures) and selecting the option "Export selected assets".
->Edit the PNG (you'll need to do this several times to understand which body part is which in the PNG)
->Put the edited PNG into the skin file again with UABE Avalonia:
->>Open the original file in UABEA and select the "File" option, name the new file the same as the original but with a 1 in the end (like daofeng_4 original file and daofeng_41 the new file.)
->>Select the "Info" option then go into "View" -> "Filter" and press "Deselect all" to finally check the Texture2D option, you can now close the Type Filter window.
->>Select texture_00 (dynamics have other names, select the one with the same name of the PNG you edited) and the press the "Plugins" option, select "Edit texture" and press ok.
->>Press the "Load" option and select the edited PNG, then press Save. Now go into "File" -> "Save" and press ok, you can now close the Asset Info window.
->>Now you press "File" -> "Save as" and save the file with the same name of the original file but with a 2 in the end (like daofeng_4 original file and daofeng_42 the name of the new file.), now you need to close UABEA.
->>Open UABEA again but this time open the file with the 2 at the end you just created (like daofeng_42), go inot "File" -> "Compress" and name the new file with the same name of the original file (this is going to ask you if you want to overwrite the original file, select yes), then you press the "LZMA" option.

->>You just finished making a mod, all is left to do is to put this modded file into the live2d (or spinepainting) folder and overwrite the original file.

To make a live2d or dynamic mod without AS you extract the PNG with UABEA by selecting texture_00 (ot the texture name for dynamic skins), pressing Plugin and the export texture option instead (I recommend renaming the PNG file by erasing from the first "-" onwards.) If you have questions you can ask.

I'm back from the dead (thought I wish I was dead) and I bring some goodies again (finally). Here's the Prinz Adalbert Bathroom L2D and the Anchorage CNY L2D.
I might give the Anchorage one another pass since some parts don't line up quite well, left the lace "panties" on (the ones you can remove if you tap them) since I wanted to leave the touch functionality (but I might remove it since it does look weird because it's not fully drawn), and I've forgotten if there was anything else that needs to be edited since it's been so long, but that's a problem for my very sleep deprived future me. @me or message me if there's any other errors to fix.

 

On another note, a lot of great L2Ds and dynamic skins have been released since then and I really want to get my hands on lewding them. Debating whether to finish up the swimsuits from last UR event (mogador, alsace, st. louis and maybe cheshire), last race queens (strasbourg and joffre), the current event (FDG, Painleve and Pittsburg, possibly Indiana because that pose is very S E G S) or go back and finish some of my older works in progress.

Saphaya wrote a pretty good guide on it , but the main guide on the first page also applies. I can write up another guide showing my process with pictures if you're still having issues, or just send here what you're doing step by step, what programs you used, what the error is and we'll try to help.

Does anyone know what kind of tools MofuMochii use? 

Probably the same as the ones we use here for extracting and repacking, AssetStudio and UABEA. If you mean for the art, I'm fairly certain mofu and some other modders are using AI, no comment on which or how since I personally don't like using AI.

我死而复生(我本希望自己死了),我又带来了一些好东西(终于)。这是 Prinz Adalbert Bathroom L2D 和 Anchorage CNY L2D。
我可能会再给 Anchorage 一个机会,因为有些部分排列得不太好,留下蕾丝“内裤”(点击它们就可以取下),因为我想保留触摸功能(但我可能会删除它,因为它看起来很奇怪,因为它没有完全绘制),我已经忘记是否还有其他需要编辑的内容,因为已经过去很久了,但这对我未来睡眠不足的我来说是个问题。如果有任何其他错误需要修复,请 @me 或给我发消息。

 

另外,从那时起,已经发布了许多出色的 L2D 和动态皮肤,我真的很想亲自尝试一下。正在考虑是否要完成上一次 UR 活动(mogador、alsace、st. louis 和可能的 cheshire)、上一次赛车皇后(strasbourg 和 joffre)、当前活动(FDG、Painleve 和 Pittsburg,可能还有 Indiana,因为那个姿势很像 SEGS)的泳衣,或者回去完成一些我正在进行的旧作品。

Saphaya 写了一篇相当不错的指南,但第一页上的主要指南也适用。如果您仍然遇到问题,我可以写另一本指南,用图片展示我的过程,或者只是将您正在一步步做的事情、您使用的程序、错误是什么发送给我们,我们会尽力提供帮助。

 

可能与我们在这里用于提取和重新打包的 AssetStudio 和 UABEA 相同。如果您指的是艺术,我相当确定 mofu 和其他一些模组制作者正在使用 AI,至于使用哪种或如何使用,我不予置评,因为我个人不喜欢使用 AI。

good mod,thank you.

Hm.. Is there any software that can be done with AI? Just curious to know the names, please?

If you are asking about AI to make nude edits, people use stable diffusion run locally (on your PC), using webUI by Automatic1111 or comfyUI. You can find a lot of guides online on how to set them up and then making nude edits with the inpainting setting. Word of warning, it can be pretty heavy on your PC, especially your GPU. That's as far as I know.

Drop them in:

Android/Data/com.YoStarEN.AzurLane/files/AssetBundles/live2D

 

I'll start adding the path on where to drop the files for my mods from now on just in case, and also to avoid confusion whenever I do an L2D, a dynamic skin or maybe regular ones, backgrounds or other arts if I ever do those as well.

Live2D

Drop in:

Android/Data/com.YoStarEN.AzurLane/files/AssetBundles/live2D

 

Anyways here's default javelin L2D. It was a relatively easy edit since the spicy parts were already drawn for some reason (thank you artists), so all I did was erase the clothes and clean up the torso a bit. It's a pretty quick and dirty job, so there are some leftover parts that need to be clean up, but I doubt anyone is still using the starter trio (+ ayanami, yukikaze and akashi) default L2Ds anyways. If anyone does and wants it, I'll come back to this one and do some proper work on it.

 

It's pretty cool to see how much they've advanced in L2D tech, comparing some of the oldest L2D skins with the new modern ones.

I'm seggsing the new L2Ds for this patch (FdG, Pittsburg and Painleve, maybe the dynamic skins as well) next.

Quick update, yes I am still alive and actually working on the mods for the skins of this event. I decided to also do the dynamic skins. Here's a quick preview.Indiana.jpeg.76308a6c28e855d69d441e76933b5072.jpeg

 

I was wondering what would you guys want for Friedrich der Grobe, whether to have her top or her bottoms covered in her default state, since I want to keep her half nude because I find it sexier (don't worry, her swimsuit toggle will be the full nude for those that want it).

Here's a preview of the bottomless version, still work in progress. I want to make the cover on her breasts more transparent, clean up some of it that I missed, and maybe try to draw her pussy, perhaps pubes as well if anyone is interested. Not sure about nipples since the angle of the breasts doesn't show them, unless I reduce the size of her boobs, but that would be sacrilageous.

I'll try to get at least one or two done before the weekend since I might be away for a bit afterwards.
