Made a few more edits tonight. Added some copy paste functionality for the Stage Definitions to make that a bit easier. Also fixed some longstanding memory leaks from loading too many maps in succession and zooming too close to an object in orbit cam.

Made an update for my Billy Hatcher level editor, OverEasy. I added in Stage Definition editing and fixed the tool tips.

@Zarphus Huh, admittedly I was trying this for a full custom character and not for skins. Not sure right this second though definitely a full custom character should work.

@Shadowth117 i'm trying your fix, and it seems to work in menu, but when i load in, it still attempts to attach the original character's mesh to my custom armature and material, leading to the expected spaghetti. anything i can do to solve this? it worked fine prior to hats update.

Made a fix for the Megabonk Custom Character Loader and compiled and tested versions for Melon Loader and BepinEx. I also put in a PR to the original repo for a fix. I recommend using his when he gets around to it, but for now mine works. github.com/Shadowth117/ME…

As far as the thing in general, while it already looks atrocious, it's worth calling out that they specifically wanted what they put out shown to the public. Now think about what they didn't show. How bad must characters like the Oblivion argonians with no irl equivalent look?

This is just image doctoring by the way. This wasn't Nvidia's pictures, it's just some guy guessing on how it might possibly look with tweaking based on... nothing. So it's very likely it could not look like this at all.

@PhuongLe241121 Well, yeah that's a one way trip. It's not simple to even mod the game at all right now so there's no support for any conversion back.

@Shadowth117 Hello, could you please help me fix the font in the Menu-default_pages.ctxr image file after I used an image export tool to add my language, but the tool is unable to import the Menu-default_pages.ctxr file?

I finished Demon's Souls PS5 .ctxr for now, pending craziness. It does manage to go through everything in the final patch of the game without crashing. A minority of pixel formats have issues, but most things work. Feel free to report weirdness. github.com/Shadowth117/Aq…

If you are freaked out about Discord doing age verification, I am begging you to pay attention to the laws being introduced and lobbied for right now that would do that to the entire internet.

Banjo: Recompiled Release Trailer (Banjo-Kazooie PC Port available on Windows/Linux/Steam Deck/Mac) youtube.com/watch?v=0906Cz… -High framerate support -Widescreen/ultrawide support -Mod support -Dual analog camera -Note saving

My best guess is the hats would need to be dummied out and applied to the character prefab somehow.

The changes are the exact same as the MelonLoader version to be clear, only difference is it using MelonLoader vs BepinEx libraries. Would be cool to see it work with the hat system that got put in one day, I wasn't totally sure how to set that up.

After sitting on it for a bit, I also uploaded the fix I did for the Megabonk Custom Character Loader to Thunderstore. The original author hasn't touched their repo in weeks, but I've left a note on the upload to use his whenever he gets back to that.

New Steam Workshop Feature ‼️ Normally, Steam always updates mods to the newest version. Now, Steam lets mods and games lock themselves to specific game versions, so: - Mods don’t suddenly stop working - Players can stay on an older, stable version if they want Steam will automatically download the correct mod version for the version of the game you’re running.

Mirror support in PT using PrimarySurfaceReplacement (NRD supports PSR). The Primary surface parameters are replaced by what the mirror sees rather than the camera. Normals, Color data is reprojected into the mirror from surroundings as BVH contains lower resolution data.

Weird stuff starts happening if you don't normalize the normals by the way if you make them fairly large magnitudes. I added an optional checkbox to disable the normalization if you want to experiment. It seems to just warp Billy so it may have a legit use case.

Happy New Year, all. Starting it out with releasing the .pth spline import/export for Billy Hatcher via Aqua Toolset. Since spline support is screwy in general, I opted to just export with bone chains with an extra bone per spline vertex representing the normal direction.

Twitter doesn't like the link's parenthesis, but searching the game name will find it there.

Bizarrely, with the Sonic Hidden Palace protos today there was one for Billy Hatcher PC. It seems slightly unfinished, but main differences at a glance are related to porting hiccups. I put notes on it on the page hiddenpalace.org/w/index.php?ti…)
