Watch Dogs - customOutfits mod

Well, check the edit part of my prev comment, the material was broken... I tried to replace the shader with driverGlass (from my sunglasses ), and got the same results, the windows disappeared. It's either not working for buildings, or some parameter like tiling, etc kills the material on huge surfaces.

Oh, and there is no ReflectionTextureSource parameter in the driverBuilding shader, so that is a dead end.

 

Ah I see, well yes switching shaders doesn't work, the material will not be rendered, as you discovered... :O
Anyway the absence of the ReflectionTextureSource parameter in the driverBuilding shader doesn't mean that it's a dead end, because the windows could use a different shader than the buildings, just like the other glass surfaces does.

 

But how? I can't make them render with a different shader. I found some window materials (with driverglass shader), replaced the chasetower window material file with those but it didn't work.

 

Ah ok I understand. Anyway, in the DriverBuilding shader there's a ReflectionType parameter, and slightly after that there's a ReflectionTexture parameter with a cubemap value that it's explicitly se to be used if ReflectionType = 2, so what happens if you change the ReflectionType value?

 

I made a new version for you. You can download the files here:customOutfits_v2b

There's a small issue though , somehow the wrench of T-Bone remained visible, only it's always on the ground. It is added differently from anything I've seen before, since obviously it is not in the model file. I haven't experimented yet with T-Bone so I wasn't really aware of this strange behaviour. T-Bone uses the wrench in the takedown animations, but I guess the normal models are missing a "bone" that the wrench is attached to.



I'll make a full new version sometime later, because there are other updates as well (sunglasses, beard color, head model fix for NPC torso nape clipping) to be released, and some parts of the E3 Lite mod are in this upload (in this post). I just don't have the time now to make a clean new package...

 

I changed the reflectiontype to 0, 1 and 2, but saw no difference (same cubemap reflections always). What should I do with the ReflectionTexture? Set it to... what?

 

How do you figured out what's the part of the material that corresponds to ReflectionType? I mean how it translates in hex.
Anyway, the ReflectionTexture parameter should refer to a cubemap regardless so this isn't relevant, if setting the ReflectionType to those values didn't give any result I don't know what else could...

 

I'm just glad this was a possibility since I haven't seen anyone else change things in Bad Blood yet. Take your time!
EDIT: Though I'm assuming you have an idea of how to fix the wrench issue? lol.

 

I loaded the material with ZModeler and checked the dump it created
Dunno how we can go on with the building reflections

 

I haven't thought about it yet, but maybe if I find the wrench model there will be the bone name where it is attached to and if I can change that to something then we'll have a solution.

EDIT: the wrench is on the backpack of T-Bone (visually), so maybe it is attached to that, and the backpack is a separate modelpart. So maybe if I put the backpack modelpart on the model the wrench will be positioned correctly. Only thing is that the biker dude will have a backpack I hope that's not an issue

 

That's not a problem at all. It'll arguably look like a cooler model

 

So it's working, though the straps of the backpack "disappear" in the jacket on the front. Still way better than having the wrench on the ground

Nice!
thanks for taking the time to do my request

 

Loose files ?

 

I'm working on a new release and my version of Silver's Collateral is not perfect yet. Will finish it in a few hours, then I'll update the first post with everything, including the loose.

Thanks for showing interest in my work

 

Updated first post, new version out now!!!!!! Get it while it's hot!

EDIT: one thing still missing. I can't create an extra version of Aiden's hair (would need it to complete the collateral with grey hair). I suspect it is because the material is in the __UNKNOWN folder. Anyone knows how I could add it to the filelist so the disrupt unpacker will put it in its correct place? Then I think I'd be able to make a duplicate of it and create a new material this way, so it won't screw Aiden's hair in every outfit, just the one I want. So if someone knows how to do it please help!

 

Thanks

 

Thanks

 

I removed the mod to try a different one while I still had the custom outfit equipped, and now when I switch back to the mod the outfit shows up but I can't purchase it. Do you know what's up?

 

Interesting. I dont know what could cause this, i'll think about it.
