About this mod

Scarlet Witch over Kameo Sareena's first skin
Dr Strange over Quan Chi's first skin
Stan Lee over Kameo Janet Cage's first skin

Requirements
Permissions and credits


This pack was comprised of mostly requests from Nexus and Discord. I believe I got 4 in 1 go and most came out well with a considerable amount of lessons along the way. I was originally unhappy with both the hands from Dr Strange and Thanos, they were very cubed and outdated and since you see them in the clash as main characters I wanted to learn how to upgrade them. This was my first time utilizing the shared/base models for the characters in the MK Engine and trying to obtain their textures to be able to re-apply them and materialcombine them in blender. I am really pleased with how Dr Strange's hands came out but Thanos is using General Shao's XL hand and they are still too small. Either way, this was really cool to finally unlock that and I can improve on the quality of hands moving forward.

Another unique thing that took a couple days of troubleshooting and learning about was Sareena's Demon form. It is using an Emissions material which causes your character to display extremely bright. I received some great help in this regard from 3-4 people across a few mediums which I am grateful for. I will notate in a concise manner the last couple obstacles below.

Mods

Known Bugs
Thanos 
- Had to completely re-do the weights for the arms and Spine3... I apologize if they are off. 
- Glove during clash can display strangely. I have re-weighted it and most of the time it looks acceptable now.
- Hands are General Shao sized. Any bigger and they fold in when he closes his fists. My apologies.
Scarlet Witch 
- The Demon form unfortunately causes the textures to be messed up. Unless you really want scarlett witch in both forms, I would suggest only downloading the one with only her human form. 
- Demon form does not have hair, so can't do any hair opacity tricks.
DrStrange
- QuanChi has no hair so I had to use an older hair piece that does not benefit from opacity. 
- QuanChi does not have a Cape so cape physics are not a thing. My apologies for my rookie caping. 
Stan Lee
- Stan's arms have some weightpaint tearing from the back going forward that can only be seen from the kameo view and turning him around.
- I wanted to have janet cages glasses be swapped for the ones he is wearing but the MK glasses do not allow for opacity unfortunately.
