[mod] EPE CBO Patch

[TombFiend]

Having a few portait issues (few cultures have distorted facial textures, open mouths etc) with POD. Latest versions, stable POD release, Merged CBO+CFP+EPE, all the compatches installed. Would like to know if anyone else plays with POD and experiences the same problems on the current version. Thanks in advance, hope it will be resolved.
***
Seems like it was a corrupted download of POD EPE compat mod. Had to redownload it from skymods, since it's deleated from steam. 
But, it seems that some clothes aren't adapted to CBO with it. Placed at the end of the load order, since mod author asked to do so. Anywhere else - it breaks face textures again.

I know it's incorrect to share bugs caused by unconnected mods, but since you provide compats for POD and EPE, can you give any advise on how to fix the issue/provide EPE-CFP-POD-CBO merged patch?

When you use underwear or get naked as an East Asian character, it still applies the leaf over your groin and the game slows to a crawl. Anyone else getting this same issue? I never got it with the previous version of this mod and my load order remains unchanged and no new mods have been introduced, so something changed between the two versions. I should note that I also have AEP and the patches are set up correctly.

I think the only known issue to cause leaf is when you use the ruler creator, and import a DNA thats not compatible with CBO.

So if you used ruler creator, try export the DNA without CBO enabled into text format, then enable CBO and import back, otherwise you will have a penis gene that still has the leaf.

After testing, it was found that when the character is wearing EPE clothing, choosing revealing clothing will cause the model to be misplaced

Wait you can't use the ruler creator with this mod?

You can, just make sure to use a correct DNA. Trying to import DNA that is not in text format will not work, like using a preset that was made without CBO.

If its in text format, it can figure out what gene is what, otherwise it only has gene indexes, and those can be different based on what mods you have, so you end up messing with CBO genes in a way they were not meant to, and end up with women having penises

Seems like they will add a new dlc in a few days, will try include the fix in the CBO patch that time.

Hi! The mod has not been updated for 1.15. Is it ok to use this with updated cbo unofficial or are u working on the compatch and should I wait for it?

Hi, ill bump the version numbers soon, but it should still work, 1.15 didnt impact CBO much, it only added headgear which CBO doesnt touch

Can you share an error.log? Does it work without EPE CBO Mesh? Maybe I forgot to update that.

Can you try with a smaller load order?

 

I tried with the load order attached, and didnt see any issues. Also tried disabling the slavic and artic DLC, but it was still showing proper clothing. Do you have the slavic DLC?

solve it. for some reason battle graphic and more holding graphic mods steal outfit from cbo epe

Using the load order posted above and seeing some issues with animations and rulers of certain cultures becoming skinny and naked.

 

For instance, female characters in the ruler designer are using the praying animation. A few characters T-posing.

The naked skinny characters were Mashriqi in the 867 start but it might affect other cultures too.

 

Disabling the EPE CBO mods resolves these issue. I tried without EPE CBO Base as well but both issues persisted.

 

Thanks for your work on these mods!

Hi, sorry my load order was wrong there, you dont need EPE CBO Base.

 

I checked and for me it seems to be fine.

 

Can you share an error.log?

Seems it was an issue on my end, after reinstalling the game and all mods everything seems to be normal now. Sorry for the false alarm!

@csirke128, somehow all the rings from CFP are missing when I used the CFP+EPE CBO Patch (or any variation like CFP+EPE+ED CBO patch etc). I still have a hands category but it only contains something like Justinian's glove (don't remember exactly what it was, but no rings). There should be a runic ring, a jade ring, a ruby ring, a signet ring, and northern lords rings showing up in that category, but they disappeared somehow. (Just FYI I confirmed that they are still included in CFP yesterday). Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, seems like its not a CBO bug, it happens without CBO as well, I think the workshop CFP+EPE patch doesnt patch the hand accessory gene.

I think the attached mod should fix it, just put it somewhere after cfp+epe

CFP+EPE hand accessory.zip

hey thanks for continuing to update cbo but, i have a problem and that is that the butt of the women out of 10 women 9 have flat butts, this only happens to me when i install epe, is there any way to make the butt size of the women more varied like in cbo without epe? i want to add pictures but i get an error, now that i think the butt size is like in ck3 vanilla i like Epe but it bothers me a little that they are all has the same size xd and sorry for my bad english but it is not my first language.

Hi, I checked but I think it works the same with EPE patch, as with CBO.

Maybe you only looked at a few characters with predefined DNA?

The butt size for characters that have premade dna are stored in the DNA files at:

"CFP+EPE CBO Base\common\dna_data"

 

There is a python script there to generate the values, you can try rerun that, or try change the script to change the distribution:

 

"CFP+EPE CBO Base\common\dna_data\randomize_dna.py"

            butt_size_index = random.randint(1, 48)
            butt_size = 0.0
            if butt_size_index <= 5:
                butt_size = random.uniform(0.00, 0.14)
            elif butt_size_index <= 16:
                butt_size = random.uniform(0.14, 0.28)
            elif butt_size_index <= 29:
                butt_size = random.uniform(0.28, 0.42)
            elif butt_size_index <= 40:
                butt_size = random.uniform(0.42, 0.58)
            elif butt_size_index <= 45:
                butt_size = random.uniform(0.58, 0.72)
            elif butt_size_index <= 47:
                butt_size = random.uniform(0.72, 0.86)
            else:
                butt_size = random.uniform(0.86, 1.00)

 

This is trying to match, what is in the ethnicities file:

 

"CFP+EPE CBO Base\common\ethnicities\00_ethnicities_templates.txt"

    ### butt_size ###
    gene_bs_butt_size = {
        # Roughly a bell curve (as can be seen credit to WaffleIron)
        5 =  { name = butt_size      range = { 0.00 0.14 } }
        11 = { name = butt_size      range = { 0.14 0.28 } }
        13 = { name = butt_size      range = { 0.28 0.42 } }
        11 = { name = butt_size      range = { 0.42 0.58 } } # 0.16 range instead of 0.14
        5 = { name = butt_size      range = { 0.58 0.72 } }
        2 = { name = butt_size      range = { 0.72 0.86 } }
        1 =  { name = butt_size      range = { 0.86 1.00 } }
    }

 

I think you could mess with the ranges here, like add some to the lower an upper values so there is a minimum value there

    gene_bs_butt_size = {
        5 =  { name = butt_size      range = { 0.5 0.6 } }
        11 = { name = butt_size      range = { 0.6 0.7 } }
        13 = { name = butt_size      range = { 0.7 0.8 } }
        11 = { name = butt_size      range = { 0.8 0.9 } }
        5 = { name = butt_size      range = { 0.9 1.0 } }
        2 = { name = butt_size      range = { 1.0 1.0 } }
        1 =  { name = butt_size      range = { 1.86 1.00 } }
    }

 

I'll probably try create a config menu or something similar for CBO, so that its possible to set min and max values for these genes when applied to the character, so there wont be a need to change these values.

[alex3221]

thanks i just, disabled the inheritable attributes, deleted a file and created a new game and the npcs have random ass sizes now except for the predefined characters, i had to modify them manually and i tell you again thanks so much for keep updating cbo you are the best

hi i think you need to update EPE+ED CBO Animation files. if i have that in my LO character would then A Pose (T-Posing).

Hmmm... damn just noticed that EPE removed all animation files. Seems like it was more hassle to update them then it was worth keeping them.

I'll just remove it as well.
