[mod] CBO Unofficial

Hi, dont see anything relevant in the error log.

 

Do you have some mod that adds decals? Like i think someone complained about statues turning characters into certain colors due to a mod that adds chest hair or something similar.

 

The way the statues mod works, is that it uses invisible decals that are added to the character, but since its invisible, you wont see them, but the texture still has some data in the color channels, and it uses the data on a certain mip level (i think mip 6, dont remember), and checks if the pixels are colored in a certain way, and if yes, it triggers the code to paint that character a certain color.

 

So maybe there is a mod that adds decals, and is incompatible as it ends up with the same values on that mip level.

 

So I would try turn off mods that add textures/decals, see if it solves it.

 

So regarding the green children bug, the incompatible mod is unfortunately this one:

 

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3280709023&searchtext=matching

 

It's an awesome mod, it makes everyone have matching eyebrow color with hair color, which makes most characters more attractive 90% of the time. Do you think it would be possible to make Statues, color mod and the eyebrows/body hair color mods play along? Right now it seems statues works with either matching hair or color picker, but not all three together.

@csirke128 Thanks for this mod. I have a couple of issues with the mod (CBO Unofficial 1.7.7z)

1) Lines on characters are appearing.
2) In Carnal Court mode, no animations play. The characters are just seated on their throne.
3) After the carnal court scene, the characters were all naked in the regular game mode.

 

Mod Order
1) CFP

2) EPE

3) CFP + EPE Compatiblity patch
4) Congenital Beauty

5) Nameplates

6) Carnalitas

7) CBO Unofficial

8 ) CFP+EPE CBO Base

9) Better Barbershop
Could you please tell me what I'm doing wrong? I've made sure to download the compatibility patches too.

 

 

EDIT : I installed your CFP + EPE merge from here https://mega.nz/file/gklH2aYT#8io0ilVjo55jTiHvswtTlghwB7iHhAKHd6l7vghK1ho and now the Carnal court works as intended. However, I'm still seeing lines on the characters

Btw, csirke. Is it possible to have larger or exaggerated body proportions? You know, like in Skyrim, etc.

 

The modding works rather similar to body slide, you add in the blendshapes that are at the extremes, and then you blend them together based on some values. So the only issue is, you need the meshes that are like that, and I dont have the skills for that.

The main issue for getting larger breasts for example, is that there is an original mesh, that has a certain breast size, there is a blendshape that then has bigger breast size, but CBO actually goes further, and the largest breast size is 3x or so larger than the blendshape, this starts causing distortions, clipping and so on. So ideally, the blendshape itself should have a larger breast size, then these issues wont be a problem.

Don't really have the skills to create these blendshapes, I'm still a beginner in blender.

 

I think just trying to add meshes from other games like skyrim would also not be a simple change, because the body texture would not line up, and not sure if I could do the skinning to match the mesh with the texture, and so on.

 

So probably not anytime soon, there are other things that could be improved that i would be more skilled at, but maybe if someone else is better at meshes and such, they could take a shot at it.

hi i just got the western slavic pack and my character is naked

 

Hi, can you share a load order and an error.log? There is a log folder next to the mod folder

Hi, is there any guide or anything to help others create/edit new versions of rev_clothes for the modded ones?
I can understand from the scripting side of things, to introduce or remove clothes/accesories. but i'm stumped at the download blender and install pdx plugin phase of creating new clothes.

any help would be much appreciated

 

Hi, for blender, I used this guide to get most of the knowledge, the other came from just messing around in blender:

 

For blender, I'm using Blender version 3.4, and this plugin:

https://github.com/ross-g/io_pdx_mesh/releases/tag/0.9

 

You should also grab the addon in the description.

 

Adding some pictures for the blendshaes as well.

 

So then all that is left, is to create a base mesh that is "revealing", for this I cannot help much. All the revealing clothing were done by Mange, I think you can try take a clothing, and just remove some vertices, or just create some new clothing from scratch, really no clue here.

Can never get statues to work. Models are invisible and crashes, if it doesn't crash during loading.
Am I doing smth wrong?

 

Statues conflicts with color picker, you will need to load this mod after color picker:

I have this issue where PA unofficial doesn't seem to work correctly, as the butt traits just don't have any effects on the character, and also, if in the ruler creator tab I add the traits by myself, these just disappear and get replaced with anything else after I start the game. Why? 

 

Hi, might be easier to try PA lite?

 

 

 

Dont think I broke PA, but dont know enough about it to figure out why it would break.

 

You can also try just change the butt size in debug mode, or with the barbershop extension after startup.

I think the traits are supposed to be taken into acount that you add in ruler creator, but dont know enough about the PA scripts to figure out, where something would go wrong.

Hi, I'm trying the cbo and aep patch and I have THIS problem. It only happens with japanese female clothes and big boobs. I've tried with this 2 orders an I'm having the same result

 

Hi, I can try create a Mesh patch for AEP, but not sure it would look much better.

Maybe I can try add a portrait modifier on these to cap the breast sizes or something similar.

I cant see the More bookmarks patch, only a link to the original mod on the workshop?

 

Hi, it should have the name

MB+ CBO Patch 1.1.7z

 

In the download section.

Hi, those lines are expected, because CK3 doesnt have a way to draw 2 characters in the same picture, there is no way for characters to interract and have correct depth to the characters. So like in 3D lets say an arm would be behind the other character, but because its 2 separate image, it will be in front of the character.

The way CBO solves this, is it draws multiple images, each a slice of the depth, so like say draws things that are distance 100 to 90 from the camera from one characer, then same from other character, then draws 90 to 80, and so on. This gives some illusion of depth, as things closer to the camera are drawn on top of images that are further away.

 

Where these separate images meet is where you have the black lines. I think CK3 draws characters with some cell shade effect, and thats why the black border.

I plan to look into how to disable that in the shaders, but its low prio, and it would also make CBO conflict with other mods even more.

 

Ideally, we could somehow store the depth buffer, and use it when drawing the 2nd character, but not sure if the game can be tricked into doing that.

Can someone help. Everything was working great and not sure what happened, but the large breasts and curvy proportions are not showing up anymore. Adding traits or adjusting in Barbershop still does not get back to the larger breast sizes like before. What's the limiter here? I tried with Carnalitas traits on and off. Physical Attributes on and off. No change, breasts are just generally smaller now.

Hi, can you share your load order?

Also, is this naked or with clothing? Like maybe with some clothing it doesnt work, but works with other.

Do you change breast size with just barbershop, or with the cbo extension?

[kenis19]

Load order:

Carnalitas

CBO Unofficial - all in one

Better Barbershop

Better Barsbershop CBO Extension

Physical Attributes

Birth Gender Control

Carnalitas Slavery Expansion

Copy DNA

Divine Intervention Cheat Menu

 

Naked or with clothing. Adding PA traits does nothing traits to a Character either. height, buttocks, etc... 

 

Tried barbershop or CBO extension size is capped. Same with Carnalitas traits.

 

Overriding limiter somewhere.

Can you try use Better Barbershop PA Extension instead?

Not sure how Copy DNA mod works, maybe you could try without that?

Yes do you have a link? Keep in mind it doesnt seem to matter if the PA is on or off.

Thanks! I think I found it. At the bottom of my load order I had ruler designer Unlocked and and Ruler Desinger - Safe Genes Unlocked. It appears to be Ruler Desinger - Safe Genes Unlocked. What exactly does the above extension provide? I'm think I don't need PA.

Hi, if you dont use PA, then you dont need it.

[MasterZak]

I suspect using PA causes excessive weight gain when used alongside More Provinces Expanded. I can't imagine why, but I have noticed it every time I use the mods together.

Thank you, keep up the good work! Looks like you'll have to update soon since the China dlc is coming

看來你和這個人有同樣的問題：

您也可以嘗試全新安裝 CBO 嗎？因此刪除該資料夾，然後再次提取出來。

CBO 非官方\gfx\portraits\portrait_modifiers\99_sex_animation.txt

該檔案大約需要 96kb

 

 

i have the same problem but that folder is the right

Seems like you have the same issue as this person:

Can you also try do a clean install of CBO? So delete the folder, and then extract out again.

CBO Unofficial\gfx\portraits\portrait_modifiers\99_sex_animation.txt

This file needs to be about 96kb

 

 

same problem here , but that text file doesnt seems like the cause for me (it's 94 kb which i assume is correct) , and i didnt use the PA version too, here is the error log

Hi, something does seem to be out of date, you have this log:

[21:37:51][E][dnamodifier.cpp:24]: could not find gene [height_event_window]. file: gfx/portraits/portrait_modifiers/00_body_part_morph.txt line: 17 (height_event_window)
[21:37:51][E][dnamodifier.cpp:66]: gene is invalid at file: gfx/portraits/portrait_modifiers/00_body_part_morph.txt line: 15 (height_event_window)

 

But I dont think there is a height_event_window gene.

 

Do you have the original CBO mod enabled? I can see this gene in that mod, but in the unofficial mod, I removed this gene, so maybe some conflicts here.

 

Also, if you are using Better Barbershop CBO Extension, can you make sure that is also up to date? That is the only other mod that should modify 00_body_part_morph.txt.

 

Can you also try with just Carnalitas and CBO enabled?

[Monedeath]

Might be when he updated the mod he simply copied the new files on top of the old ones, so a complete delete and re-install of the mod might resolve things in that case. As the issue could be a left-over file from an older version that was not retained/updated in the newer iterations.

I have a problem. All works perfectly if I use the AIO pack, but I get crashes with the Milfy Mod when animations are played due to the fact (I think) that the Milfy Mod uses custom sprite for some characters, which are utterly incompatible with this mod. If I use Base + Meshes only, female characters just look distorted in any clothing. So, is there a way to disable animations in the AIO pack?
