Bluestar is easy and convenient for listing mods. You can even make text files and configure mods to make multiple combinations.

Hey, haven't you tried to do it for these models?

So far it seems we're only getting 1 new skin for each character, not all 8 colors

Where'd you read this? Because we've already seen at least 3 new skins for Sonic, excluding the McLaren skin.

Im wondering if we'll get a thick Katara edit with jiggle physics...

Yeah, I remember when they were showing things off, you specifically saw a Sonic with the Normal, and AI skins, and then 3 color variants for that AI skin all unlocked. So Sonic at the very least has at least 6 confirmed skins, and will probably have more. I think it is also safe to say that this will extend (- the McLaren skin) to all the other characters. Excluding DLC is unconfirmed. Hope they get some kind of outfits. At least one each would be nice.

If we do get one Mclaren skin per character then at least that be kind of worth it.
A free slot for everyone!

What's better if we get actual skins for everyone in the cast. The cast has so many to pull from nearly every game in the series.
I doubt we get anything for the guests, I take a ai skin recolor of them over nothing.
But I don't have any hope for that.

It's really not that hard, you just need to install UE4SS by placing its files in:

"steamapps\common\SonicRacingCrossWorlds\UNION\Binaries\Win64"

 

And then you place the Photo Mode mod in:

"SonicRacingCrossWorlds\UNION\Content\Paks\LogicMods"

 

I don't use CrossPatch, Bluestar Manager, or any other mod manager for installing mods. Not even my own.

It's an Unreal Engine 5 game, modding is the same process for every other game that's very simple to install if you know how to drag and drop.

This even includes mods that uses UE4SS as a dependency.

Do we know yet if all the new AI Racer skins are going to have seperate models? With how many there are, I wouldn't be surprised if they just made it so that there's just one AI Racer model for each character, with different textures/materials applied to it depending on the chosen skin. Since the skins are just palette swaps of each other, it'd be kind of silly from a game design standpoint to give them all their own seperate model, as PC players who are into modding are the only ones who would benefit from that, and I doubt that subset of the playerbase is at the forefront of the developers' minds.

Hey I got to ask about the adult sage mod you got permission from which folder from the extracted folder is which one?

Not sure what you mean since I labeled them, but will explain since I may not have been clear (srry bout that):

AI Dark Sage places Dark Sage Themed Adult in the AI slot while AI Sage Purple is the same in that AI slot.
The others (Dark Sage and Sage) Change their respective slots themselves and the other versions over main will replace the preferred slot (Regular or Dark) with the other versions depending on which you want.

You can Mix and match them as far as I'm aware so if you want, for example, you can have adult sage purple in the main slot, dark in AI slot, and purple in dark slot.

You have to activate them separately so open BlueStar mods folder, create a folder for the loose files of the slot you want to replace and just plop them in (the only ones with their own folder in the pack are the specific main slot ones such as Dark Adult Sage in the Hero Slot folder).

Example: Open mod folder of BlueStar, Create folder AISagePurple, then plop in the 3 mod files from the AISagePurple zip file in the pack, refresh BlueStar, scroll to bottom of list and you should see it to tick it on.

I packed them into a single zip for convenience, though I don't remember if I had to separate the packs themselves originally zip were already a thing.

You should be able mix these mods with other mods, but you have to prioritize this one over mods that modify BOTH dark and regular sage, and even then depending on how they are set up it may not be compatible. (I'm currently running the Sage jacket mod from the dl section here with purple adult and cowkini sage also from here all at same time without issues)

Fun fact: There's a short stack version as well (just the adult sage mod, but same height as regular sage), but I don't remember if it was shared here since I think it was around the time we had to still be cautious about her mods.

Couldn't this potentially break existing mods due to file structure? Or if the CSS mod works fine with existing mods, then I guess I'm just being paranoid?
