Just a quick question. Has anyone been able to take a look at the rigging of the DOA3D models?

I was just wondering, I was reading up on rigging for 3D and Im having trouble rigging shoulders, and the DOA ones look great (movement wise), and I just need a point of reference.

Guys. I lost power in the middle of making the DLC pack. I don't want to start from scratch, it will take forever and I don't want to keep you waiting, so I guess I'm going to have to make it in parts. It already has a lot of costumes, so you should be fine. Expect a download shortly.

The new version of DLC tool (0.9.1) has 2 new options: Load State and Save State.
This options are very useful for big DLC's because you may save your advance in the creation of DLC.

the problem is not what you are doing
the model needs to have transparency enabled in the relevant material properties (in the tmc file). If it is disabled it doesn't matter if you add an alpha layer to the texture or not.

thanks to your answers. I use Photoshop CC.
can I create a transparent layer, through this program?
"the model needs to have transparency enabled in the relevant material properties (in the tmc file)." = i requested a detailed explanation to you.

Hi ,anybody please help
i try swapping the ayane default costume and hitomi hair to kasumi ,so i extract AYANE_BOSS_COS_001 from chara-common.bin
and use DLC tool ,but the result like this

here is my settings

i don't know why kasumi's costume become like that

 

[Chapstick]

The BOSS one as far as I know is the dark teal version that the transforming clone at the end of story mode has when low health.

no, it would need a seperate modification to the tmc file. I don't think there is an app for that yet.

 

[chelren]

no, it would need a seperate modification to the tmc file. I don't think there is an app for that yet.

so, ayane model's tmc file is impossible? and, other models are possible?

i opened the file for I have to understand the structure.(kasumi short school texture.)
i did not work this. someone uploaded it.

this is applicable.
because this model is different from the ayane model?
i am embarrassed.

Although I can't read the Japanese I can follow the layer stucture well enough. I've never known this to work previously so it's interesting to see how it was accomplished. Since you know that it works on Kasumi's, you may want to try the same approach you're using on Ayane's skirt on Kasumi's instead, as a test. If it works, you'll know the issue isn't your work flow. If it doesn't work, it's not exactly ideal but you can experiment on it until you have it down. I can't tell you that I'm confident it will work, as I don't presume to know it all, but we all discover little unexpected things sometimes. Hopefully that'll be the case here.

On another note, in the final image I can see there is no background layer, which means the Alpha layer only consists of the black bar. It may look white in the image but most the other area could be empty as well. If your bottom layer is background, right click it and choose create layer from background.

thank your reply. so, i for testing, using the Kasumi school original version.
i used the same method. remove the skirt (alpha map) and save as "DXT1 1bit alhpa"
it was successful. the skirt was gone. my way is not wrong.
so, i am more puzzled. ayane's school is Impossible. i could not find a reason.
kasumi texture is dxt1 and, ayane texture using dxt5.
If you have the time, i want you're test it.

I'll try to give it a shot but the most likely culprit is there just isn't a transparency layer embedded in Ayane's skirt. Will update once I can do it.

thank you.! I will wait for the good your news.

hm, that is curios
I would have thought that it doesn't work on the kasumi model, as it doesn't have a transparency layer. obviously there is something going on that I dont know :/

I tried the DLC tool and he founded the amount of disponible slots for the female costumes:

View attachment 11156

The column orange is the amount of slots por character.
For example: Kasumi may use the slots 23, 24, ....,38, 39 in the DLC Tool.

So how many costume slots do the guys get?

 

[Kronin]

So how many costume slots do the guys get?

So far:

• slots 32 - 39 for the main female cast;
  
• slots 5-14 for Sarah/Pai;
  
• slots 5-9 for the male cast;
• slots n° 7,8,9,15-20 for Alpha-152

@chelren I did a few test for you and can confirm that it does not work. The transparency data is mostly likely embedded somewhere in the actual costume data. Even cheating the dds and png files doesn't yield any results, I was able to make all but Kasumi's shirt and underwear disappear but Ayane simply turns white.
