Im a hetero guy. How many male cards do you think a hetero guy needs?
Ive actually counted for the purpose of responding to this. 38 male cards...
...to 199 female ones.

im a hetero guy and i like my classes 50 50, the drama is the good thing of this game (but yeah the ratio is abysmal
)also a LOT of cards this days have nice overrides so I think is better to download every card, maybe you will find nice overrides to use in a new one or find inspiration(?

I wouldnt know how to use them. The only reason i check the character editor is to fix things i dont like about the cards (tits too big; ass too small) and strip them of modules. I have modified a few existing cards for the purpose of turning them into flytraps, but even then the changes were minimal.
Theres other people who keep pumping out new cards like theres no tomorrow. I merely circle around like a vulture and snatch a card or two as i pass by... why do work and put in effort? Teehee
i was fucking around with ppexcli, i used ppex_unpack.bat to convert the ppx files to viewable format (cuz i wanna listen to the voice lines), and ppex_pack_jg2.bat to pack them again, but the repacked ppx files are like half the original size. and obv they cause problems in the game and editor. non-default voices all become silent.
what am i doing wrong? is this a locale issue? is there a manual somewhere that explains the ppexcli folder? Instructions.txt did not explain much
yes ofc i could just take the original files out of the trash, but now im curious about how this stuff works

Can someone check if they can load this card correctly?
I recently installed Artificial Academy 2 [MiniPPX v8] following the guide (that include installing the lastest Council Clothing Collection), but when I try to load that card the torso doesn't appear. I get that:

You can't unpack audio data from PPX and use it for anything. It's lossy. As to why they pack to half the original size, I don't know, but PPX packer was never designed to work with compressed audio because that doesn't exist in AA2 data. This tool isn't at all designed to be friendly to casual users.
TotFit? What's that? You mean "Tot Outfits v5.9". They are supposed to be included in the Council Clothing Collection (The CCC), or am I wrong?
I follow this guide:

and I have installed all the mods from step 2 (that include Council Clothing Collection). I've also installed "The Harderlinker" from step 3 as well as "The Texture Starter Packs".It's strange, only affects some clothes. Example

If you dont have this swimsuit then yeah you dont have the totfits ppx

this isnt quite right. the issue is that when you PACK a ppx, the compression is achieved in part by converting audio into very compressed ogg/opus file type. therefore when you UNPACK the ppx, you will get that compressed opus format audio.
the audio is fine, however, since the ppx packer is designed to convert audio to opus, you can not GIVE it opus in the first place.
in otherwords you need to provide the packer with a different audio format (wav is the default) so the packer can convert it to opus correctly.
if you pulled the audio from ppx, and you are trying to repack, you have to convert it before you repack it.
if all you are changing is a couple lines, then what you actually want to do is pack up a new ppx with ONLY the lines you want to replace, and make sure your new ppx has a higher number at the start of the file name than the original ppx. keep the original installed, ADD your new ppx (it will then load after, and replace the lines from the original ppx as long as you used a higher number in the filename to control the load order)

they are accounted for (in terms of slots) but not included in the ccc ppxThey are supposed to be included in the Council Clothing Collection (The CCC),
i for example have all these ppx installed:
21_CCC_CIV_v2_3a.ppx
21_CCC_Male_CIV_v2_2.ppx
22_totfits_CIV_v5_9.ppx
21_NoPan_outfits_CIV_v1.ppx
21_NoPan_outfits2_CIV_v1-1.ppx
21_NoPan_outfits3_CIV_v1.ppx
22_pregnancy-outfits_CIV_v1.ppx
30_FaizKitbashesV1_6.ppx
and others.

Yeah but the point is that it's lossy. You don't want to use lossy audio for any kind of processing when lossless is available. The original game data has the lossless versions of every audio file and that is available both as part of the full game and individual pp files online.
Unpacking PPX with audio -> repacking PPX with audio after converting it to wav is lossy to lossy conversion. It's bad. Also the opus packing settings in ppx aren't that great either. I had to leave the ding sound wavs out of the PPX files because the compression mangled them.

oh i thought he was going after personalities, most of which are not in the original game
