>>1105548 we're so back

>>1105548 /vg/

>>1105794 I's admit that I didn't actually see /vg/ on the board list since it's new to me and rather chaotic, but now that I have, if it turns out that this thread survives long enough TO continue on 8chan then we can happily move there.

>>1105835 Appreciate you being cool about it

play a better game instead

>>1105855 It is customary to respect the rules of new places when you visit them, I should think! >>1105862 We've been waiting for that game to come out for 10 years. When it does, we'll let you know.

Does anyone have that image from 8prime of one anon cucking/NTRing another anon's AA2 char? That was fucking hilarious.

>>1105835 /vg/ looks to be abandoned, though. Hopefully someone takes it over or makes a new one.

Usual madlads refuse to die, something new anons?

>>1105959 Ask and ye shall receive

Neato

I remember downloading a lot of mods and characters for this game

I was tempted to make a thread at some point, but I assumed no one was going to be aware of it or care enough to post. Maker May still a go I assume?

>play koikatu for the first time in years, never uninstalled >girls dont ctively look for you or even get mad I miss AA2 shenanigans, I might reinstall just to get an harem and watch girls get mad wth each other

finally i can return to my daily ritual of checking the thread for cute girl posting, hopefully the rest of the anons take notice that we're back >>1106613 i've been working on the rest of the pepper0 girls for svs >>1107162 i think there were 2-3 or more anons who said they're interested? i think maybe more would have voiced their opinions if 4chan didnt die. maybe i'll work on a second video project for maker may >>1107328 reinstalling's pretty easy, you should do it and post the catfights

>>1105548 >>1107162 neat

>>1107510 SEX

I haven't touched this game in a long time. Is there a way to add tattoos yet? It was something I tried doing but couldn't figure out for the life of me.

also, since we are here, whatever happened to the newere (not) illusion game? heard it was good and was waiting for a tranlation and stuff, what was the name?

>>1107628 (S)ummer (V)acation (S)cramble It's in the OP it's in the middle between KK and AA2 Closer to AA2 gameplay-wise and closer to KK artstyle-wise

>>1107659 neat thanks, gonna check if my toaster can run it, was having some problem back then and finally had to change my fan, which ended being the source of it, so I never gave it a try

>>1107626 tattoos have been in forever mostly people just do womb tattoos though

>>1107726 post womb tattoos?

>>1105980 I have no idea how that works so we can cross that bridge if we get there. >>1106769 You should do it again and post your class and the cards that you like! >>1107162 That's fucking awesome. And yes, Maker May is on so long as there are those who are looking to participate. I've already started my planning list, though my schedule remains somewhat questionable for when I'd actually MAKE the cards... I do all my best work at night but my nights are complicated now. >>1107626 You can have tattoos that are as complicated as you want now. You just gotta make them.

posting here for the sake of it. 4chan hates me for being alive. >>1107755 Hoping to do Maker May this year as well if I'm not too busy (or braindead), maybe make some more textures as well

>>1107626 Sometimes they find you themselves

>UIDs Well I'll be.

>>1107755 >I have no idea how that works so we can cross that bridge if we get there. It'll be figured out by the time we need it

This ability to post multiple images at once is really nifty and I want to believe that it would encourage people to post more class content, since you're not limited to a single happening per post. >>1107911 That's a good thing! Makes it much harder to samefag.

>>1107755 >You should do it again and post your class and the cards that you like! I don't have them anymore and I don't even know if the stuff I grabbed from hongfire still even exists with how many file uploading sites disappeared in the past decade, or the character cards which were on some AA2 database somewhere with tags

>>1108609 That database is preserved in its entirety on db.bepis.moe Link in the OP

guess we don't have to worry about page 10 now

>>1106613 Toying around with a new balljoint doll, though I'm unsure I'll finish before May. >>1107736 Small example, though this one's a weird overlay instead of a tan like the usual method.

>>1113025 By overlay you mean like a transparent mesh with a texture?

>>1113025 What outfit is that?

Anyone keeping up with SVS? I haven't ever since some map mods were being posted, did anything relevant happen after that? I remember somebody was also working on modules.

bulk upload test

>>1113894 It looks like an override mashup of the ichigo bikini top and the Fubuki bikini bottom.

>>1115413 That's not the original ichigo bikini top, this is. It looks like whoever made that outfit modified the ichigo bikini top.

>>1116188 Mashups tend to add some pits and pieces like that. That edit looks somewhat simple: duplicated the string mesh and adjust the rig a little. Looks better in any case. Especially not using the ichigo's bottom because it's butt-ugly.

>>1113971 it's dead jim

>>1113971 Nobody in this general is working on it(aside from a handful of card makers) and all the modding discussion happens in discords. Sometimes we get updates on the newest thing but those posts get barely any non-schizo replies so there's not incentive to bring it up. I guess people are waiting for some killer feature to justify them giving it another shot.

>>1117663 It looks good. It would look even better if it was released.

>>1117704 >>1117799 That's a shame. It has potential to be good, but nobody seems to care about it and would rather stick to AA2 or Koikatsu.

>>1119641 There could be people that care about it but they're in the aforementioned discords. In the current year, image boards aren't good indicators of public interest. I'm not interested because I have enough of a Stockholm syndrome from AA2 to deal with its outdated look and it scratches the itch just fine. Anything that would replace it either has to scratch that itch just as much with some incremental improvement or develop a new itch I didn't know I have. KK and SVS failed in both regards and KK had a better shot at it with its studio. And Illgames did some baffling choices like adding loading screens between areas, limiting the map to a fraction of AA2 and KK, bundling the studio with their previous game(this is the most retarded shit you could do, I'm kinda impressed) and lobotomizing the AI. Seeing Len play at being a shrine maiden is cute but doesn't cut it.

This should have been OP

>>1113635 Yep, it was done as a workaround for using multiple tans at the time. >>1113894 What >>1115413 and >>1117663 said. It was meant to copy the original work. >>1118659 She's available on the database, her succubus outfit just shows up as an override for her other style. https://db.bepis.moe/aa2/view/64735

>>1117799 >>1120292 It's pretty annoying that the only way to keep up with SVS seems to be joining some discord, but still I hope they are making good progress and I agree that the base certainly had potential.

I gotta admit, I really like the freedom to post lewd images anytime and how the board is so much slower than our previous home.

>>1121506 Yeah, overlay meshes are mad useful and not enough people use them. Can be used as hacks for some annoying outfits and as a way to paint anything anywhere. Why did you need two tans though? I only see the monochrome womb tattoo and I guess the nose line? I never liked the poo smear so that's why I use the nose overlay like in the second pic. As a bonus, you even have control over the angles you can see it from.

>>1122571 Wanted the nose line to be independent from the womb tattoo. I originally had another overlay for the nose that tried to mimic the artist's shading effect, but I scrapped it before release figuring it wouldn't be received well.

>>1124234 >FUCKING SPOTTED

>>1122571 This version of Miho has that override, right? https://db.bepis.moe/aa2/view/59724 I wonder if it would make it easier to make kemono girls. >>1124234 I was nervous that she wouldn't find us. I hope she didn't think we'd abandoned her.

>>1122571 unrelated but where can i get that outfit in the first image? is it slotted or override, and who made it?

>>1125898 Link made it, so go and download his artemis so you can have that override

https://samabakes.jp/en.php They're building up seriously to the steam release now since it's only 4 (or 3 in JST?) days away now. And it comes with the added DLC personalities, so that's real nice. All we need is to rip the translations from it and backport (and over time touch them up because we know it won't be too accurate most likely) to the original game, and we're golden until they either decide to release more (actual) DLC for the game, or just move on entirely, making modding a pretty safe bet from there on.

>>1125269 yeah, the ones that have the halloween tag have halloween styles >>1125898 https://db.bepis.moe/aa2/view/59639 you may have to download it unless it's in CCC already

>>1126295 Why should you bother with backporting? Or is it already known it's getting gutted for steam?

>>1126547 Well if it's like their previous steam release already in the sense that the default characters are deliberately redesigned to appear more mature by default, I can also take that to mean that sliders have been adjusted, forcing international players to more "mature" ranges of customization. Basically, it being gutted in some way shape or form is the standard so far, so it's likely to happen again, the altered default cards/characters already being a direct sign of that already.

>>1126649 I personally give between none and zero shits about their stock cards so that wouldn't bother me "more mature sliders" is probably irrelevant too since these games usually get unlocked sliders modded in as a first priority Other than that I don't know how it could possibly be meaningfully censored unless they outright remove sex

>>1126721 >Other than that I don't know how it could possibly be meaningfully censored unless they outright remove sex This is also highly likely to end up needing a patch from their site that I linked once it actually releases because so far, the steam page itself has zero mentions of being adults only, which already implies to me that they, for the raw steam release, removed those functions. Also, considering the modding scene is mostly still glued to Koikatsu, HS2, etc, anything that isn't Room Girl onwards, don't anticipate the steam version getting modded, even if sliders were the first and only thing to worry about, and even if any and all future DLC is actually released on Steam as well. As it stands, it took long enough to get sliders unlocked for the original game as it was, just for patches to come along and make them obsolete, last I checked. Problem is, now that everything is effectively scattered, I have personally not a single idea on where to track the modding scene now at this point.

>>1126832 huh, the steam page really has no mention of anything sexual, not sure if it's an indicator that it's gonna be all-ages release or just trying to go under the steam moderation radar. The only tells that it's a porn game are "-ahem-deep and meaningful relationships!" and "Attempts to recreate in-game actions or events in real life may be punishable by law." Do they really think people would care about their kusoge if it wasn't porn?

I wonder how an 8chan high would go.

>>1126295 Sweet. That's the kind of SVS news I look forward to.

Card for pic related?

>>1126295 That's something I guess. I doubt it will amount to much other than some translation improvements but hopefully breathe a little life into the modding scene and maybe, just maybe makes anons care about it a bit more.

So if halfchan does come back up, is the general going to go back or stay here and acclimate?

>>1133074 I prefer staying here purely because of the thread ids

>>1133074 I like it here, but time will tell.

>>1133074 Honestly, I'm pretty torn about it. Both sites have QoL aspects that are appealing over the other, and if 'everyone' already moved here then business really could continue as usual without going back to 4chan.

>>1133088 >>1133336 >>1133361 I actually hope we do stay. I've browsed here occasionally for a couple of years and I appreciate the more laid back style.

>>1135145 I like being able to post without having to wait 15 minutes.

Oh this is where we ended up eh?

>>1137553 had to wait those 15 minutes a total of about 5 times since it was implemented. It forced the shitposters to spend more effort to not get banned.

Isn't there an /aa2g/ on the webring on the /hgg/ board?

>>1105548 I heard AA3 is real with the nu-ILL(usion) So, whats the verdict?

>>1137707 True, but it was still annoying when it happened.

>>1138356 Barebones, will probably take a year or so to reach AA2, not counting mods, which will need a dedicated modding autist or several to be dug up.

Let's see if I remember how to make cards. I dunno what to do about her eye color - I originally had them as this teal (back when I watched SAO so I trust whatever I used as a reference) and official art has her eyes vary from that to blue to black. I'll probably leave them alone since I like the teal and rarely use it. Also I wish this back hair was a liiiittle less crushed-in on the sides. >>1135145 I agree that the laid back pacing is nice, but I wonder how much that'll change as more of 4chan's traffic comes here. Also based on what that guy said early in the thread, we may be coaxed to move to /vg/ instead of staying on /v/ specifically. I have no strong feelings either way on that one, but it's weird that /vg/ was marked as abandoned. >>1137924 The /hgg/ board... here? It has like 6 total threads. It looks completely abandoned, and not in the tagging-way. Like "actually unused."

>>1138356 The verdict is that it's not AA3 even though it's similar to what you'd expect from that, it's very boring to play. Fine for fap fodder though.

Butt where's the ass wagglin clips?

>>1139091 We're waiting for you to launch the game and make one, obviously.

>>1139424 Would you make me a sandwich?

>>1139453 even if he did you shouldn't accept food from strangers

>>1139453 I made you some fresh pancakes, but are you a brave enough dude to take one?

>>1140615 considering he has no scratch or burn marks the pancakes he served must've been heavenly. worth the risk

>>1140615 those aren't pancakes bruh

>>1105548 I hate that I came into this thread, because now that I'm set back up, I remember how much fucking fun it was just fucking around in AA2. On the off-chance some anon remembers it, anyone know where to get sound mods? I recall there being a Catherine OST mod for AA2.

>>1142036 There's a list here, though it doesn't have everything. Others are scattered across various Megas as far as I'm aware. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1gwmoVpKuSuF0PtEPLEB17eK_dexPaKU106ShZEpBLhg/edit?gid=1774398480#gid=1774398480

>>1142036 There are a few custom bgm packs linked in the modder reference guide in the OP, and if you check in the old pastebin links that are saved in there you may even stumble across some of the old-old ones like Catherine, but really it's quite easy to make your own Custom BGM set. It's just renaming a few files ad converting them to oggs (or wavs, but oggs work just as well at a fraction of the disk space).

>>1138466 The /hgg/ board is brand new, it's not abandoned.

>>1146874 A brand new board with a thread from 2021 in it? It really doesn't make sense to move to a dedicated "hentai games only" area when the main /v/ and /vg/ boards allow (spoilered) porn. We don't actually want to live in a place that is founded in degeneracy; /v/ and /vg/ have a bit more "legitimacy" to them and that's what we should (and do) want to be around.

>>1142314 >>1142316 Thanks lads. Probably will just go the route of doing it myself. Anyone got the trap outfit? Every link in the mod spreadsheets are long dead.

>>1151194 Any outfit highlighted in red is included in the CCC, which has a link in the installation guide.

Still playing around with this doll, wish I could make the cracks look more convincing. >>1143148 She's cute, but is more or less just a mod on top of an existing personality with a few tweaks. 6.5/10 without my bias for robots.

>>1151431 I'm a fucking idiot. Thanks, anon.

>>1129593 never ever

>>1151447 Very cool! What's the lore for how she broke? >>1151683 <suggesting Rarecardfags in absolute shambles.

>>1151447 >wish I could make the cracks look more convincing not sure if you already did that but you can try messing with custom specular texture and map to make the cracks looks more metallic

>>1151965 Not the most original lore, the short version is that she was roughed up before coming to life as a consequence for her creator being a hated man. Before he passed away he melted down his wealth and attempted to repair her with it. >>1152328 I'll look into it, will probably do so more tweaks to the the textures as well.

>>1153063 you can use tot's competition swimsuit as a reference, tho I think not the CCC version but the override on this card https://db.bepis.moe/aa2/view/62389 There's probably more examples but that's the one I remember having it.

Guys there is "enjoying the new comfy laid back pace" and there is "letting the thread go completely dead" and it seriously feels like we're more of the latter than the former right now.

>>1164657 Life gets pretty busy

I haven't been active in this gen for like 4 years but I'm glad to see you fags still alive and kicking over here.

>>1153460 Funny thing is that I was looking into Tot's Kisaki for the same thing. Managed to get it working earlier after a while, though I'll have to try applying the same to the face / legs, and every outfit I consider using. >>1164657 Hopefully everyone is getting their Easter bunnies ready. >>1164877 What's got him so mad? >>1165428 Maker May's coming soon, would be a perfect time to come back!

>>1166061 >What's got him so mad? A dead thread.

>>1166061 >What's got him so mad? Not enough people replying to the personality rating post.

As far as I can tell, the outfits on the left are "more accurate" but I think I like the ones I eyeballed on the right better, and now I'm torn. I think I have to trim her side hairs too, since most art doesn't have her showing them.

>>1166840 Looks pretty solid so far, I agree with the colors (though considering my trend of more saturated colors I may be a bit biased). Not sure if the hair pins need a few placement/size tweaks or it's just the perspective, especially compared to the last image.

>>1164657 Well I've been busy playing with this fat arse I dont even remember when was the last time I opened the editor, porting clothes and the stupid weight paint burned me out ig >>1143148 5/10

>>1105548 >tries to download tekito mod for SVS >using MEGA for a 1,5 gb file how are people STILL using that garbage?

>>1166061 One thing to note is that if you're applying a custom specular to the body you should enable the "sweaty" trait as well. Afaik, the game turns it on and off whenever the character is supposed to look wet, i.e. after swim class, in the showers and if they're sweaty.

>>1143148 Sweet for robots. 5/10.

eggamotos are a precious currency

We need more rabbits. >>1174626 Not sure I want to collect these eggs...

>>1176618 Rabbits you say?

>>1176618 pyon

>>1167278 I opted to go with the left side for uniform and gym but right for the grey outfit. I couldn't stand for the other yellow. As for the hairpins, I grabbed them off an MMD model that was ripped from Koikatsu that was probably ripped from one of the games so I think they're okay. They look like they're holding hair in place, anyway.

>>1176618 What about vampire rabbits?

>>1179583 Your rabbit is being pretty mischievous lately. >>1180284 Gotcha, is she going to have anything for Leafa? >>1180672 Sure, all rabbits are welcome (real ones anyway, bunny suits don't count).

>>1174626 >>1176618 Easter is for rabbits, for certain. This was a pain in the ass to get working because one of Asuna's overrides makes the bunny outfit crash. >>1181340 For Leafa it doesn't look like I can grab anything useful from Plant's version unfortunately. I'll see what MMD models I can find, but this is fighting me a bit more than I'd expected that it would. Apparently she is much less popular as a blonde.

>>1181655 You've probably figured this out or knew already but the crashes seem to be due to the object overrides not playing well with the bunny suit's meshes. At least the ribbon ones from what I could tell.

>>1182902 Yep, it was the ribbon object override. I really wish that object overrides could be limited to a single xx. On the upside, Leafa is progressing smoothly. The more I looked at reference art for her the more I realized that she and Sinon (ALO) have the exact same front hair, which is very amusing from the MMO character design perspective.

Only played a little of this class, but they're pretty much as horny as I'd expected. Nikalia waited at the Jizou statue to assault the PC when no one was looking (despite barely knowing the guy), several surprise relationships formed early (including Marnie and the only other guy who's got any, as well as Miyu and Sylvilia), and Lilly Anne drags the PC into private rooms so often I half expect a sudden pregnancy announcement. At some point two or three couples went at it in a public area and some others would regularly call everyone away for training/studying before some other rabbit would call everyone back.

I wonder if any people get put off from posting because of the user ids.

>>1106669 This is both funny and sad at the same time. Evil anon really got in pure anon's head.

>>1186900 It's good that the rabbits are doing as nature demands. What's not good is that we are dead as fuck.

>>1190958 We're always dead, it's just because the board is so slow there's no pressure to bump the thread. Also, I'm sure not everyone migrated here.

New male outfit released! https://mega.nz/folder/tsB3GIKZ#eGYEFT8svob8W71aNOzxIg It only fits Tall, so fatties, manlets, and twinks need to get to the gym. >>1191460 I've always considered that to be looking at it wrong, though. People shouldn't feel pressured to bump, they should want to post. It's a completely different mindset and if people feel like posting is an obligation and not something that they want to do, then does it even make sense to revive/continue the thread?

>>1193050 I'm not saying they _should_ feel pressured but rather without that pressure you see the real level of activity. There's also a consideration that you often can't even open the thread because 8chan staff are still figuring out how to handle the influx of people and not everyone knows they can try .se and .moe versions of the site if the other doesn't work.

>>1193727 You can do italics by putting a double apostrophe before and after the text you want in italics. Like this.

>>1194379 Like so?. Any other markdown syntax I should know about?

>>1193727 True, my connection was pretty stable all weekend but maybe I should be counting my blessings. >>1194484 The 8chan Help page lists lots of CSS options available. https://8chan.moe/.static/pages/posting.html

>>1194744 Good to know, thanks

original arts by pepper0

>>1195037 Big sis turned out very well

May starts next week, any last minute projects before it arrives? Hashing out any last minute ideas or weekly themes? >>1193050 Much appreciated. >>1195037 They turned out well, good job!

>>1195037 In aa2 when anon? they look so good

Looks like the English version of SVS released, completely overpriced and barebones (no Studio, offsite patch for lewd content, etc.). For those who care C4 also released a new personality for guys (Airhead).

>>1201814 I wish she'd tick the box to make Willful public too but she's being stubborn about it for no reason.

>>1201814 >no studio IT'S OVER

>>1201814 >completely overpriced I fucking knew they would do this. Price shit this high, and then get surprised when it doesn't sell the way they wanted to. I don't care if they make what's equivalent to "AAA" porn games, just being porn games alone is enough to serve as a financial handicap on pricing.

>>1195037 Nice work! I'd also like to see you make them in AA2, as I could not motivate myself to make them. >>1199596 Sugu and Leafa are nearing completion - I'm trying to decide which color pantyhose I should go with for her club outfit. I feel like the white is too much white, but I could be wrong. Another fun thing that popped up while I was taking these screenshots is that I realized my game is antialiasing my UI elements now. I have no idea when it started doing that and I wonder if it's related to all my other current graphics issues. Fucking Windows man, I hate it so much sometimes. >>1201814 >>1202613 To be fair, $70 is pretty standard for illusion games. Considering AA2 also cost basically $70 10 years ago, that makes their current pricing downright generous. [spoiler]If anyone feels like gifting SVS to me I would certainly not turn it down, and then I get plausible deniability. ;^]

>>1107755 She even has an Inuyasha sleeve...

Well hello there

>>1201814 studio was included with honey come dlc for the jp version so not surprised. and here is the extra patch https://www.illgames.jp/product/steam_svs/en.php

I'm at my wits' end about these graphics issues. Two hours of pulling files in/out of my folder and I've established two distinct states of being. >with d3d9, game is blurred and textures don't work <without d3d9, FPS is single-digit and game is unplayable Is it possible read/look at d3d9 files directly, in case there's a setting in there that I can change?

>>1209642 Do all win10fixes give you this issue?

>>1209692 If I enable win10fix, I get the following results: DXVK: Error after launching that says "failed to initialize d3d9" DXVK2: Error after launching that says "failed to initialize d3d9" Original d3d9: game doesn't even launch, gives an error code dgvoodoo2: launches, has poor-but-low framerate, and textures are fucked. Trying OpenGL instead has a goodish framerate, but various UI elements fail to load entirely.

>>1209778 What works the best for me is wined3d, surprisingly enough.Try that, just disable win10fix first

>>1209830 That's the OpenGL one I mentioned. it doesn't have the UI blurring issue, but textures are still fucked. Or maybe it does but the UI is missing. I guess that would unblur it too.

>>1211378 Do you keep that .dll next to the executable when you try wined3d? If so try without it. Otherwise I have no idea. Win10fix is very inconsistent for me. Occasionally it works and with great performance but at some point it crashes and the game doesn't launch at all. I checked if the .dlls got locked or something but nothing seemed out of the ordinary.

>>1212064 I feel like I've tried just about every combination of files being present and removed, but made no progress. Even replacing the d3d9 in system32 with the one I had in my AA2 folder made no difference. Things that "worked" continued to do so, and things that didn't would fail in the same way. I fucking hate this and I hate how issues like this are present all over the internet, but they're seemingly randomly applied and Windows just blames the graphics card manufacturers while they blame Windows.

>>1213818 Yeah, also good luck trying to get help with issues specific to a decade old porn game that stopped working on the previous version of Windows.

>>1214097 The thing is that the issues don't seem isolated to AA2. I've seen similar reports in Star Wars games, Modern Warfare, Cyberpunk... it's a complete mess.

>>1213818 >Even replacing the d3d9 in system32 with the one I had in my AA2 folder made no difference. I genuinely hope you didn't actually do this because if you did you're going to have to reinstall windows if you didn't make a backup.

>if you didn't make a backup Someone clearly doesn't know who I am! The original file is back in its home already, don't you worry your pretty head. I wasn't going to leave it changed if nothing was improved from the effort. With that said, multiple sites say that it's fine to roll back a d3d9 file in system32, which is what I was functionally trying to do. Also, Sugu and Leafa are done, and I'm just waiting on someone to playtest the bunny suit texture before I ping the harderlinker host to have it added. I can't trust my own texture testing anymore so if someone here would be so kind, I would deeply appreciate it.

>>1193050 Thanks for reuploading, I appreciate it. >>1215695 Does this work?

>>1216014 Gorgeous, thank you!

>>1201814 >>1208158 So if the patch is already getting passed around, did the EN/International version get uploaded somewhere already?

>>1219063 *I mainly ask because until I see the translations & image files for assets not translatable by txt files and such, I'll be more than happy to play that version until further notice.

https://db.bepis.moe/aa2/view/65648 https://db.bepis.moe/aa2/view/65649 Leafa and Sugu are done! Be sure to grab Leafa's texture from the harderlinker google drive (bunnysuit tot #84). Hopefully I didn't forget anything... I don't really care about updating Liz or Silica but I wonder if I should squeeze out [spoiler]Yui.

>>1219063 not yet, but obviously available to purchase. I think the ILL website has an adult patch for it too, not sure if it's free or not.

>>1216014 Who is this nice body slut?

>>1222131 I don’t understand.

>>1222383 Huh? indeed

>>1221170 The patch is definitely free, the problem is that surprisingly (or maybe not so surprisingly, fucking $70) it's not turned up online anywhere yet.

Finally I can say this damn outfit is done, it gave me a lot of headaches espe the shoulders pad and a cape I tried to give physics (but failed misserably) >>1220615 Nice updates anon, do you plan to update your old girls with the blue uniform? >>1193050 nice to see another bulge underwear >>1222131 YES

>>1220615 >>1225152 Good work! >>1222131 Haven't seen her in quite a while, though I fear she may have to explain further what see wants.

>>1225933 *what 'she' wants, though I 'see' >>1225963 is trying to make it a bit clearer.

>>1220615 Cute! >>1225152 Cool!

>>1201814 saw this on steam and came here to ask about it, sounds like it's another skip such a shame I want to support these dudes but they keep releasing the same game with less features for more $

>>1225152 Very cool gladiatorial-wear! I can imagine that cape physics would be a nightmare, but tot did figure out tail physics recently, so maybe if she can ever get ahold of her free time again she could look into that? >do you plan to update your old girls with the blue uniform? Do you mean my OCs from my first class, in 2014? I hadn't really thought about doing more for them other than their AAUifying, which I did back in 2020 (they're on my mega). Much like Kitty I consider them basically "done" - the girls are who they are and don't really need editing. What editing would they need?

>>1193050 Ich knie

>>1199596 the cracks are looking nice >>1199776 >in aa2 when? not anytime soon >>1220615 those cheeks look very pinchable

>>1231834 Don't limit yourself to just the cheeks!

>>1231834 Cheeky!

So is SVS fully translated and playable yet? Haven't been around since launch and 4chan is kill, did it get it's own discord/ general or is it still just piggybacking off here? Did modders end up picking it up or is it still better to play koikatsu and aa2?

>>1140182 sloppy bump

>>1105959 >>1106669 Classic post. I remember seeing that on 8chnet back in 2017. The image, I mean, not the thread. Artifacted and lower res though, I still have this one from when I first found it that's a bit sharper and bigger. Also wouldn't this thread make more sense on >>>/hgg/ ?

>>1235121 /aa2g/ always stayed on 4chan's /vg/ and it was never an issue, except /vg/ sometimes getting drowned by gacha games. Occasionally there's a sister /h/ thread for it but those are even more dead.

>>1233890 As far as I'm aware it was translated before the English release came out, though it might have been a partial machine translation in places (not to the humorous extent of early AA2/Koikatsu translations though). It's mostly been attached to /aa2g/ with a few vocal shitposters, any /h/ threads died almost instantly. The modding scene seems mostly kept to Discord and arca.live, though aside from neat gimmicks like expanded maps or third-person mode most mods seem to be just ports. AA2 as it is now is better, though SVS might edge out Koikatsu for you if you prefer AA2's gameplay. >>1234763 Milkman looks a little more devious than usual there.

>>1235421 That's what being a chief executive of a milk empire does to you

>>1234763 That second picture is especially good, hot damn. >>1235121 >Also wouldn't this thread make more sense on >>>/hgg/ ? I think I summed it up best here >>1147932. /aa2g/ is a respectable establishment for upper-crusty enjoyers of anime tiddies. Since 8/v/ already has more lax rules than 4/v/ and 4/vg/ had with regards to pornographic content, I'd say we've never been more at home than we are now. Once the thread approaches bump limit we'll have to assess whether 8/v/'s board culture would permit us to stay here , or if we move to 8/vg/, but now more than ever I don't see us moving to any hentai-themed board.

>>1238749 What personality is kiss-o-clock?

>>1240875 Wild personality.

Haha! Time to make eyes! >>1241050 I wonder how I've never seen that!

>>1244124 Cool eyes, is that all one layer or are the white dots a separate highlight? Wild's line I assume it's either her horny line or the line when NPCs catch you taking another to the classroom.

>>1247569 I was able to get everything except the purple central circle into the highlight. The purple bit was hard enough to get that shape as a single color, so the prospect of doing it additive and dealing with the multiple gradients involved seemed a bit much for my first texture in basically a year. Still happy with how it turned out, so now I need to start my next one. Too many to choose from...

Am I mistaken or do we have all the pieces of this outfit now? >himo >naked apron >frilly thighhighs

>>1250590 that can hardly be called an "outfit" but sure, we have all of that, just gotta assemble them into an .xx

>>1250590 Seems like you could make a pretty good approximation, yeah. Even the Noelle if you count Brandy's.

>>1253820 Why doesn't Brandy release caaaaaaards!?

>>1254638 \(ToT)/

>>1250590 god I love hoyogirls...

reposting from /akg/ the list of userscripts for 8chan >>>/gacha/178463

>>1257647 What do each of those do? Also interesting timing, since 4chan just came back online, but I can't post in its since captcha seems broken. It just says "bad gateway."

>>1257917 just various features from 4chanX. Each one has some portion of those and with all together you get pretty close to the full thing. They don't conflict with each other either.

>>1257950 >>1257917 I haven't spend much time with it so here's some better info

Another one down! More than 30 layers of circles on circles, but that's all eye textures are when you get past the mysticism. >>1257950 >>1258100 Interesting! I just started with 8chanSS and I'll see how it does.

Guess 4chan is back? Also, been too long since I've done a random class.

>>1260955 >Guess 4chan is back? It is, but it's comfy here. >Also, been too long since I've done a random class. What's your roster?

>>1261786 The only thing I made sure of is to not have duplicate personalities.

>>1261900 What's the point of making a male character aside from the PC? Competition? t. never played the game

Anyone else putting together ideas for Maker May? I also plan to make some Card Harvest type cards, for a few people that I haven't made cards from yet. >>1261900 That's a lot of my cards! Also the 4chan thread just archived as I was typing a reply to someone. I hope shitpost-kun got his fix for... however long it is until there's another thread for him there. >>1261963 An AA2 class can be whatever you want it to be. It can be a harem or it can be a realistic 50/50 split that you're just "another member of." It's one of the game's biggest appeals, since so few games let you do things like that. Some males will try to NTR you, yes, but others can be your best bro wingman who tries to help hook you up with the stoic beauty who otherwise won't give you time of day. Or they can be Pyramid Head.

>>1261981 Thanks Anon. This game seems very customizable (Pyramid Head kek), it caught my interest, I just have too many games to play already. Regardless, I won't forget about it when the time comes.

>>1261963 Just happens that I have WAY more female cards than male. I do have male cards, and it makes it indefinitely more interesting if you have a couple. >>1261981 Yeah, I have a number of your cards that I like, so I'm glad a couple could be in the class. And nice to see our resident shitposter didn't miss a beat...

>>1262190 I mean, technically he did miss a beat, since the thread died. He neglected it to death.

>>1261963 I mean you could be a girl playing as a girl and wanting to hunt your ikemen rather than engage in scissoring. That's an option.

>>1261963 Sometimes someone wants men. Simple as. t. m*le enjoyer

>>1263167 When it comes to modded personalities, Apricot is second only to her sister Wise. It's such a shame that the best personality modder we ever had ended up leaving us so soon. 9/10

>>1263167 Easily one of the best modded personalities. 9/10

Uploading cards here breaks them?

>>1267058 Dunno, but why wanting to do that when we have catbox or bepis?

>>1267078 Characters can be shared as image cards + Imageboard = ???? profit ????? Seriously no one ever thought about this before? Highly doubt it

>>1267078 it's a more direct way to share a card than posting a link to the file. It's no big deal but sometimes just dropping a card here is preferable to going to a third party website

>>1263167 9/10, solid personality. >>1267137 It's not that no one's ever thought of it, it's more that the data of the card gets stripped when posting it (at least in 4chan's case) rendering it useless for the game.

>>1116188 >>1179583 >>1180672 These are the only cards uploaded in this thread I've tried the first one and it doesn't work for me Ok so the board does break the cards

>>1267350 But meaningless if the data got corrupted like when you do that in 4chong or discord, so the safest route will always be use the sites we already know to upload cards >>1267393 Those aren't cards dude just SS

>>1267403 that's what the anon is asking. I'm just telling you that it's more convenient to post them here directly and it obsoletes catbox as an option. Bepis is more of a long-term option and we know it works. Megas are also an option and are even more safe but it's annoying af to use.

>>1263167 8.5

Guys...it's an easy enough thing to test, ya know. Just upload a card and download it to see if it still works. Like so!

And it seems to work like a charm here. No stripped data, so cards can be shared directly if anyone so desires. Still a bad idea, since -chan archives are unreliable for such things. The DB and mega/mediafire are more reliable.

>>1267058 I haven't tried, but I'd be very concerned about the security of this website if it didn't. Sanitizing input for user uploads is very important, so hidden data can't be uploaded. The cards contain a lot of data that isn't image.

>>1268900 Well... we should be concerned about the security of this website, then. Since it does maintain png metadata.

>>1268933 So it appears. Speaking of metadata, EXIF should also be stripped. I don't know if the website strips that, but that can contain geolocation for photos which is obviously not something good.

>>1268945 if i remember correctly, location is stripped but nothing else is

>>1268900 This site should have an option for the uploads to don't strip the metadata (there are already spoiler all, strip filenames, adding don't strip metadata next to them would work) and if the worry is about security, then the unstripped images/files must have a red marker next to them to notify they are metadata unstripped >>1268933 >Since it does maintain png metadata. Not for the game cards of aa2 though

>>1270987 Woe plague be upon us, and he. >CHIBIKO HATH BEEN SPOTTED

>>1270923 >Not for the game cards of aa2 though What are you talking about? I just uploaded then downloaded an AA2 card and it worked in-game from the download. >>1270987 You can tell why she lets him get away with it.

>>1271742 >What are you talking about? I just uploaded then downloaded an AA2 card and it worked in-game from the download. Which one was that? I tried downloading >>1116188 >>1179583 and they didn't work

>>1271784 Those are likely just regular pictures. Most cards will have a 200x300 resolution as a tell, as with >>1267903.

Looks like a sleepy Sunday. Board activity's slowed down a bit too, though I don't think the thread has much of a split between 4chan/8chan anyway (more 8chan/Discord if anything).

>>1274095 Yeah, I'd post more but I'm busy outside with the kids.

The entire time 4chan was down I didn't realize everyone had moved here! Glad to find you again, friends. I made these for last weekend, but better late than never to share AA2 girls.

>>1274095 Indeed, I've had IRL family stuff going on so I've been a bit busy this weekend. Hoping to get two eyes made today, though. If I can. >>1274100 You mean your AA2 girls, right? On your Steam Deck? >>1274325 Glad you found us! The 4chan thread only lasted all of 1 day once it was back up - shitposterkun had his normal hissy fit and no one, including him, seems interested in remaking the thread after it 404'd. This place is quite comfy so far, and while traffic is certainly down since 4chan came back online, It's still better to be on the "main" /v/ board somewhere than drowning in a sea of gacha generals.

>>1274374 Cute girls! When you're sweating hard from gaming it's best to take your clothes off. >>1274382 Gotcha. Comfy is a good way to describe it here, I like being able to post several images at once, and not have to wait 15 minutes to post.

>>1275796 bless tot for all the extra pubes we've got now

If we're staying in 8chan for while then here: https://mega.nz/folder/pq8H1RgD#fhUj_nu1sN47TRpDiplTOg Have fun frends. c:

Two more down! If I can make one or two more then I think that's a solid addition to the work series for the (start of) the year. >>1275796 Are you also getting to work on Maker May? >>1275852 Very cool stuff! Here's hoping someone (possibly (You)) makes use of it! I'd rather not rely on C4 since she still won't release her completed personalities for arbitrary, unexplained reasons.

>>1276714 that's about the worst thing to hear in response to posting a detailed guide that explains how to do something

>>1276925 Its poster is well aware that I love seeing him put his amazing talent for pose creation and porting to good use. I do hope someone else joins in on the fun, which is all I can do since I, personally, cannot (at this time).

>>1276978 just saying, "I'm not going to use it so why don't you use your own guide" feels worse than no response whatsoever

>>1277017 You are reading what I wrote in the least charitable way you possibly could. C'mon, man, don't be like that. I'm just saying I'd love to see him take the next step from poser-only poses to expanding the pose selection in the core xa files.

>>1277093 I intentionally worded it harshly to make you appreciate how it sounds. The thing you're looking for after making a guide is people using said guide. When you tell someone you're not gonna use it, and especially when you tell them to make something else, feels like you've wasted your time.

>>1277133 The time is only wasted if the guide is lost. So long as it exists, it might be used by someone. It helps if you, the author, use your own guide first. I'm fairly certain we've both lived to that standard.

>>1277189 It also might not be used. Especially when it comes to more complex things because people just won't bother. I don't remember ever using my own guides. They're manifestations of the knowledge I was trying to share so unless they're full of arbitrary references they don't serve their purpose for me. That guide looks like it's explaining the workflow instead of listing things to remember so it's safe to assume the anon that made it already did the things the guide teaches.

>>1277224 Chibiko, no! Put that down! ...slowly! >>1277231 Honestly I think a good salve for your depression would be making cards for Maker May. Get back in the spirit again, like the olde dayes!

>>1277264 and you failed your empathy roll like always. I often wonder why do I ever bother giving you an outside perspective. I'll take it as another lesson to never talk to you with an assumption that your head leaves your ass sometimes. And no, I'm not joining maker gay, I bet you're surprised based on all the times I did previously.

>>1277325 I didn’t roll empathy, though, since I have a passive that clears all those checks. (What I do with that overabundance of empathy is another matter entirely.) I rolled insight! As for Maker May, I’ll never forget that you did participate in 2016. That was the Maker Weeks. You made some very nice cards, too. Seeing you make new stuff is always inspirational.

>>1275852 Thanks for sharing and putting forth the hard work in making a guide. I can't promise I can release anything but this will be very helpful for something I have in mind.

was a rayman type card ever made for aa2? i'm trying to make it so the girl has floating hands but i seem to only be able to fully remove the arms (hands included)

>>1279681 You'll have to create a custom arms mesh(or reuse one from an outfit with long sleeves, just remove the sleeves).

>>1279681 >>1279788 The invisible outfits are the closest thing that we currently have, but I didn't have to fill in the open holes that were left visible in those cases. For a proper floating hand you'd want to close it once you've got the hand mesh, which while it isn't a massive extra step, it comes with a fair share of issues. (sviex, for example)

>>1276714 i intend to begin on may 1st

>>1280154 Glad to hear it. I've got my eyes on you.

>>1279788 >reuse one from an outfit with long sleeves, just remove the sleeves i assume i have to get the outfit i want in SB3UGS? but i dont know where the outfit is in the files or even it's name >>1280108 >The invisible outfits it seems i dont have those because when i load up the invisigirl various body parts are visible. she's fully invisible when nude

>>1281280 Ah, I forgot to include a comment with a link to them in that update. They're in the outfit list, though. You can get them here: https://mega.nz/folder/NlYxDLBI#hi21hPshMf-R7xfWm9AY5A

>>1282067 she works now

I should pay attention to the outfit release. Thanks tot.

>>1275796 Would be better without pubes

>>1275852 Thanks! I will check this out, I've never really touched Blender before but if it makes posing easier in the long term it's probably a good investment. >>1280154 Looking forward to the next installment! >>1282067 She sort of looks like a kawaii ghost of Colonel Sanders with the coom in her mouth.

does anyone know what the exact deal is with object overrides and materials? using materials that dont exist in the target mesh seems to crash using materials that do exist is giving me inconsistent results too

>>1282908 It's finger-lickin' good! >>1283130 >does anyone know what the exact deal is with object overrides and materials? Yes. An object override cannot introduce a material conflict. >using materials that dont exist in the target mesh seems to crash Correct. You're introducing an undefined variable so the game just dies. >using materials that do exist is giving me inconsistent results too What does this mean? It is possible to objective-override something to null, which tot does a lot with her files, but if you get too complicated with an object override you can inadvertently lock yourself out of other outfits (like the ones in the CCC outfit restorations).

is it possible to change the material on the source mesh and override the existing material? or is that the material conflict you mention

>>1283273 Now more than ever it's much better to ask your question with pictures and specifics. We can multi-image post! What exactly are you trying to do? In short though, you cannot change a material with an object override. Object overrides are for replacing meshes. If you wanna mess with materials you may be better off just making a full xx override.

the materials are referenced by their index, not by name. So even if the material exist it also has to use the same index as in your source .xx

thanks yeah just gonna go with the archive override the index reference definitely explains the results I saw

>>1284703 It's no wonder she looks so disproportionate. She only ever trains glutes and nothing else.

>>1284293 A class prez shouldn't do such things in the classroom. It disrupts public morals! >>1284703 I bet Chibiko could do that too.

>>1284703 >>1285722 post chibiko's chibi glutes

>>1285054 Look at her feet. Tip-toeing with that weight requires some absurd calf muscles too.

>>1284703 is there a secret chibiko in this one?

>>1105548 Forgot to post her. Black Bunny. Have some shitty Ai version of her :] (since i forgot to make another pic) https://db.bepis.moe/aa2/view/65664 https://mega.nz/folder/FVxxCTyS#gKeXmU7Sk_ifWYiCDTEa7w

The best girls are always ginger and thicc :>

>>1287023 So strong

>>1287023 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VrlKfUKC7Vk

>>1286871 You're making a compelling point. But we still need more evidence to support it.

do these exist as a prop or as something wearable in AA2? acquiring it is of utmost importance

>>1288547 They're slotted in glasses.

>>1288553 i checked everything but the glasses section. thanks

Only game I played was Artificial Academy 1 and that was like 8 years ago. How much does AA2 improve the formula if at all? Is it possible to play it in VR?

>>1288626 You're a weirdo. AA was a dead game 8 years ago and AA2 itself is over 10 years old. I would be really surprised if it wasn't actually AA2 that you played.

>>1288657 No I'm 100% positive it was AA1. It was moderately fun for what it was but after about 4-6 hours or so I was done with it

>>1288682 AA2 is basically what AA should have been. It downgrades some random stuff in typical illusion style, like the H gameplay for example, but the actual classroom gameplay is way more fun and also stays fun for much longer since it's not as railroaded as AA. Character creation is far better too. That's even before you start modding it. No, you can't play it in VR. Both of these games use the same prehistoric engine. That said, it's still at least similar to what the original AA was like, so if you didn't care for that at all there's a pretty good chance AA2 won't do you much good either. Although I see no reason for you to ask rather than just try. It's not like you're going to have to pay for it.

>>1288593 Fake bunny has no ears. >>1288626 I never played AA1 but AA2's 10 years of modding have expanded it in ways that AA1 could never dream of. AA2 has a fan-made poser, significantly expanded asset pools, the ability to write your own custom traits... it's a massive upgrade over AA1. No VR support, but it does have a first-person toggle during sex.

I need to stop going after Irritated girls.

Tomorrow morning (at least for me) I enter hell. Pray that Maker May has mercy on my soul.

>>1290553 It's just making cards, it's not that hard!

Is anyone here in-the-know enough to know when/why all of vespa's comments were changed to this? I feel kinda bad for him and miss his terrible input on cards. >>1289643 Why does Sola associate with people like this? Why does her demonic husband-rapist allow it, for that matter?

>>1292305 a few things: - Zera is not a demon. He's an honest-to-god human with a dash of dragon because <backstory> - He's not a rapist either. He's just an ugly horny retard, but he means well and has a savior complex. - He was not always her husband. As for "people like this", she knows that deep down they're good kind people, even if they don't know it yet.

day 1: maker may has begun here in the Land That Never Existed, so here's a white rabbit that nobody asked for. >https://db.bepis.moe/aa2/view/65665

>>1292305 Like, were they retroactively changed to that, or did he start posting only good things now?

Maker May begins! AA2coin is on the rise! Or falling, depending on who you ask... Since I'll be out for most of this weekend I am trying to get a bit ahead, so my first two girls will be Bear Market-tan and Bull Market-tan, inspired by this AI slop image. https://db.bepis.moe/aa2/view/65666 https://db.bepis.moe/aa2/view/65667 If anyone is looking for ideas, crabbing shota is up for grabs... >>1294337 Retroactively changed to that.

>>1293686 Maybe I didn't ask for it but I am glad you made it! Cute girl! >>1294827 Super cute cards. I've done enough DD to confidently say now's a great time to invest in Makercoin. This May we are going to the moon!

Hello everyone, especially but not limited to those participating in Maker May. I've made some outfits converted for doll girls that I felt were both within my skill limits and especially worthwhile for doll girls to have. Please consider making some cute doll girls, or robot girls with ball joints. https://mega.nz/folder/gXYU3bYA#COX5hyWeXntMpzQB_Bq1uQ

>>1293686 >>1294827 Looking good! >>1295138 Much appreciated! I'll have to check them out when I get the chance.
