Thanks very much for your encouragement. 

I am studying the post and js-script included with Mx. Lakovic's mod to improve my work. 

I must also admit that I made some compromises with the chest depiction, so I can understand the criticism. 

Even so, I see it as an opportunity to improve, and your support truly motivates me to keep moving forward.

Good day everyone, I saw the Estelle no shorts mod and thought it would be nice to add stockings for Estelle (maybe made of the same material as her shorts). It would also look great to replace the skirt model like in lacovic’s mod. I don’t usually come here, so I apologize if mod requests aren’t welcome and I’ll understand if I get brushed off with this kind of request.

Estelle ABC+nude_mod
Hello everyone, long time no see. It’s been almost half a year since I last came to the forum, and I really missed you all. During this time, something happened in my family,....

 

@lakovicI hope all is well with your family and life. Your mod made my Kai playthrough so much better than just the default costumes.

 

Thanks for sharing all this and I look forward to more upon release.

 

You have amazing talent and its appreciated.

I truly appreciate your encouraging words. I am taking the feedback seriously and studying the texture tutorial provided by Respected @amorrow28 (Understanding textures). I hope to improve and release better mods in the future.

 

Please keep it up and share your work. I would use these but I dont see the download.

That's odd. Just to be sure, did you remember to delete or rename the .pac file? Usually, if all the steps are followed correctly, the mod either works or the game fails to launch entirely. It's very rare for nothing to change at all.

Release Candidate (RC) – Shading Update


I’ve improved the chest shading—previously criticized as looking like burn scars / augmentation scars—taking inspiration from Mx.@lakovic’s post.  
Since the game hasn’t officially released yet, this build is posted as a Release Candidate (RC).  
Please note that, given my current skill level, this is as far as I can reasonably take it right now. Further requests to make the shadows even smoother may not be feasible in the short term, but I’ll gladly take constructive feedback into account for future updates.

What changed 

  • Outlines: made significantly thinner across the board—still readable, not overpowering.  
  • Toon balance: overall slightly more cel-shaded than vanilla, without going full hard-edged toon.  
  • Highlights/Rim:subtle on skin, more matte on cloth, kept on metals—less glare, clearer material read.

@_QED Thank you! I installed both and its a huge improvement from default.

 

You guys make this game so much better.

 

Keep the NPCs coming. I love having some of the important NPCs with these sort of mods.

 

Great job - youre a good as anyone here. I look forward to more!

Release Candidate (RC) – Shading Update

image.thumb.png.958d3ef33d714cf9967ad30d9ff63c2e.png


胸の表現について「火傷痕/豊胸手術痕のようで醜い」とご指摘いただいていた影のシェーディングを、@lakovic様の投稿を参考に調整し、改善しました。  
ゲームの正式リリース前につき、今回はRC版として投稿します。  
なお、私の技術力の至らなさもあり、現時点ではこれが精一杯の仕上がりです。

さらに滑らかに、というご要望にはすぐにお応えできない可能性がありますが、今後のアップデートの参考としてフィードバックはありがたく拝見します。

主な変更点

  • アウトライン:全体的にかなり細くし、輪郭は見えるが主張しすぎないよう統一。  
  • アニメ調の度合い:バニラよりややトゥーン寄りですが、ベタ影になりすぎないバランスに調整。  
  • ハイライト/リム:肌は控えめ、布はマット寄り、金属は質感維持でギラつきを削減。

Thank you for your great mod!  Can you please check if your mod file is correct? I used all 3 mod files, however Estelle's clothes is still Orange color. According to your post V100RC is blue color clothes.  Can you please check if correct file was uploaded? other mods are OK.

Thanks for the report. I re-tested on my side and the V100RC build shows Estelle’s outfit in blue as intended.
If it still appears orange, it’s usually a path/priority issue or the original game .pac still taking precedence.
Please follow the install guide at the top of this thread and double-check that the archive’s folder structure is kept as-is (no extra nesting), the original Estelle outfit .pac is renamed/disabled, and no other Estelle recolor/cloth mod is active.

Thank you.

Good news, Falcom hasn't fallen yet.

 

Edit: most of the female NPCs in town simply have black blobs under their dresses, which kind of makes sense as their dresses go all the way to their ankles anway. Only important npcs seem to have panties. Aina has them but I suck at getting shots with the free camera mod and it's tough because her dress is pretty long too. Still, got the info I wanted.

I'm hoping to get some shots of Jill's panties during chapter 2.

Estelle ABC+nude_mod
Hello everyone, long time no see. It’s been almost half a year since I last came to the forum, and I really missed you all. During this time, something happened in my family, so I hardly had any time to focus on online things or mod making.

The promised Kai no Kiseki V2.0 mod and the Kuro no Kiseki 1 & 2 mods have been delayed for quite a while, but I hope I can make up for them in the near future.

Recently, the demo version of Trails in the Sky FC Remaster has also been released, and I tried the game.

My impression of it is that it leans more toward an illustration style: the 3D models are relatively simplified, with fewer shadows and details, carrying a bit of a hand-painted feeling, and overall giving off a nostalgic vibe. In contrast, I personally prefer the more realistic 3D style of Kai no Kiseki.

This also determined the direction of my modding. I will try to make the rendering style of the models closer to Kai no Kiseki.
This time, I still used the new body model and textures from Kai no Kiseki. Let me show you a comparison. The first picture is based on Trails in the Sky’s rendering style, while the second picture is adjusted to resemble Kai no Kiseki’s rendering style.

2.Snipaste_2025-09-11_19-37-56.png.f07ee3c5dbcbdbe71c29d12308f2828b.png

I’ve listed 3 main comparisons:

  1. The rendering style of Sky makes the chest area particularly blurry. It may not look obvious in my screenshots, but in certain story dialogues you can really see it.

  2. The details of the hands and fingers: this is also hard to show in screenshots. In the Kai no Kiseki-like adjustment, I added normal maps, while the original Sky rendering does not have normal maps. If possible, I suggest you download both mdl files, try them out, and let me know which one you prefer.

  3. The reduction of body contour lines: since Sky leans toward illustration style, both clothing and body outlines have very thick lines, which makes it overly cartoonish. I reduced the line thickness. In screenshots (such as in the equipment menu) it may not look obvious, but once you play on the world map, the difference becomes very clear. Personally, I prefer the thinner body outlines. Again, I recommend downloading both mdls and comparing them in-game.

I’ll also attach a game screenshot. Which style do you like better?

In addition to the rendering adjustments, I also focused on physics and collision this time. For the first time, I added very soft and bouncy “jelly-like” breasts for Estelle’s nude body. Better just watch the video directly.

Lastly, I also tried modifying Estelle’s default costume and designed three variants: A, B, and C.

Installation Guide

The installation this time is a bit more complicated, but @amorrow28 has already provided a method. I’ll repeat it here:

Since Sky packs all models, textures, and config files into .pac archives, and the game prioritizes reading .pac files, you must extract the files from the .pac archives into the game’s root directory and then rename the .pac files (just change the extension so it’s not .pac, for example .pa).

Before installing my mod, please make sure you have extracted the following 3 files:

  • asset_common_model.pac

  • asset_common_model_info.pac

  • image.pac

Then place the extracted asset folder into the game root directory.

Finally, download my mod, extract it, and copy the asset folder into the game root directory.

 

nude.zip My personal recommendation is the rendering style leaning toward Kai no Kiseki.

nude - Hand-drawn style.zip This is based on the default rendering style of Trails in the Sky.

A.zip 8.69 MB · 140 downloads

B.zip 8.6 MB · 124 downloads

C.zip 8.75 MB · 89 downloads

Hi lakovic, would you like to make a more revealing variant for Estelle just like Schera variant C? I will sincerely appreciate it

I followed the modding guide but still was too dumb to add transparency myself...

where do i put the asset folder?

The same location as the game folder—meaning the same folder where “sora_1st.exe” is located.

Thank you for the kind words! I’m happy to hear that both mods are a big improvement over default.
I’ll keep going in this vein, and I’ll consider adding more important NPCs as well.

(Tentative roadmap: Scherazard (alt costume) → Estelle (Neo Bracer) → Dorothy.
This plan reflects the current state at the end of the demo.

After full release, the order/scope may change depending on my playthrough progress. Thanks for understanding.)

I'm not saying your mod creation policy is wrong.

But what everyone visiting this thread wants is a mod with more nudity. Like the nude mods or high-nudity mods provided by lakovic.

That's why you always get flak. There's no rule saying you can't post low-exposure mods, but you know there's an unspoken rule, right?

 

You said in another thread you'd be active on X, so are you going back on that? I think your non-NSFW mods would be welcome on X.

 

I'm just advising you to avoid getting attacked and keep the thread from getting derailedI'm not attacking you.

I followed the extract instructions, mods work, but my UI is now JP? Any advice?

 

Note: Don't extract every pac.

Maybelle and Lila. A shame they seem to have censored Estelle in the remake of SC by adding spats. I'm guessing it's because her crafts would be constant panty shots, but it's still canon, damn it.

I hope they dont put spats on dlc Estelle Jenis Academy uniform. I guess will find out next week.

 

By chance if you are taking requests can you get panties shot of Kloe Jenis Academy uniform whenever you get to the point in the game or have time? Am curious what color is the small ribbon on her underwear. We know Josette is light blue color. I hope its a different color.

 

Also maybe panties shot of this npc Emmy too?

 

Much thanks for Josette, Maybell, and Lila pics
