Looks pretty nicely done, although its a bit of a shame how you need to download separate files for every costume. any way to change it a bit and make the mod compatible with zeta in one, larger modfile?
This mod hasn't been worked on in almost two years and predates Zetas public release by almost that amount of time. I would have done that at the time if that was an option. Regardless, I consider this work to be some of my worst, with bad rigging options and texturing. I would encourage you or anyone interested to use more recent work by myself. And unfortunately no, I will not be porting this to zeta since it would necessitate a complete remake to bring it up to modern standards.
Maybe I don't understand something, but the mod doesn't work. Appearances do not appear in developments or when choosing equipment. Which files should I download? How do I find these outfits?
it literally says right in the description that they'll replace the MGS1 solid snake outfit. They aren't "new" outfits, they just replace the existing one.
Not gonna happen - the work required would essentially be equivalent to releasing a whole new mod of this scale, and I personally always replace the Soviets with other factions.
Amazing mod!!! :D Maybe a suggestion, a mix of Void upper body and Perseus lower body is possible?? That would be amazing, breaking the full black a little bit with those brown pants n sneakers :)
These look great! I was wondering, would it be possible to make them work as one of the regular fatigues for (male) DD soldiers instead of the Solid Snake outfit? I´m not familiar with modding, but from the other posts here, I understand there might be issues with bones and rigging?
I particularly like the first outfit and since it´s very desert-themed, I was thinking it would be great to be able to use it in a way so that it also has the appropriate camo index. For example having it replace the regular Desert Ambush camo (combined with a camo index mod that is).
That's something I wanted to do, but there's a few things that stopped me from doing so. The first is that I found it easier to implement on a technical level for the sneaking suit. The mesh skeleton was easier for me to adjust and manage with minimal mesh adjustments needed. When I began this project I was much less experienced.
So basically you're assertion is correct: rigging these models to the fatigues model would have been a bit of a nightmare for me at the time.
The second reason is largely because I don't have enough camos in mind to replace the full camo index, I think there's something like 56 or so camos and I wasn't sure if I wanted to replace them all only for a handful to actually be used by people or myself. Sure there are a ton of Soviet camos and many really cool ones but the effort required to sample each camo and get the orientation of the textures right and make sure it's seamless... it would be a nightmare for someone like me who's worst skill is texture work.
That being said it's not something I'm opposed to in the future. I think redoing the wardrobe for Diamond Dogs to use Soviet/PRC themed gear isn't outside my ability. I've redone the Battle Dress already and a sneaking suit wouldn't be difficult. I'm just unsure that I have the assets or ideas to make a single outfit to replace the fatigues that would be unique enough from what I've made so far and also fulfills the vision of being stealth themed. It's something I will definitely think about though!
Ah, I see, understood. Thanks for the explanation. Would be definitely great if you decided to give it a shot some time in the future if you feel like you´re up to it. I´ll be waiting and hoping ;-)
Not entirely sure I follow so bear with me. First off, is this mod not compatible with Lightning and the Rain? Second, this mod is complete, it's a full package and will have one more update for compatibility on the new modding framework being worked on.
If you want one that is similar, though not the same, I do have this mod available. For now, I'm taking a break from making metal gear mods, though I am not gone forever.
