Game
Yumiko's challenge (not to be confused with a problem) is that she is the first Asian Darkhound ever made.
She is more of a unique prototype than anything else.
Her content is defined by being a side character and to some degree a very early staff prototype too.
The proto combos makes her hard to predict.
Sex? She is herself highly sexed, so probably, at some point, when or where it suits.
Daz (not game)
Here one could of course ponder whether a prototype remake, Yumiko ver. 2022, is an option to "reroll" her fate.
But,
(1) Good Asian assets are rare, so their evolution is not entirely likely to produce the "same" girl ex. Yumiko version X might not produce "Yumiko"
(2) Remakes need to be really good, they take a lot of time.
So Yumiko is a possible (due to prototype) but not obvious (due to asian) candidate.
Her current evolutions are also a good practical example of it.
Yumiko Evolution, early Akari branch
Yumiko Evolution, Late Akari branch
Yumiko Evolution, Akari Sakura branch
So they tend to turn into new girl types (when I tinker that is)
Note.
Summer and nothing else was happening so I felt like thinking out loud a bit on the Daz side of Yumiko evolution since she was mentioned. This is just a Daz walk through where Yumiko thoughts lead me over time.
The usual Darkhound decides the game disclaimers applies for anything related to the game itself.

Speaking of Yumiko,
One girl, does not move that much, should be easy to keep track of right?
Let's find out quiz.
Yumiko Sakura, Yumiko and Sakura, valid way to state names?
Speaking of Yumiko, is this woman in the game?
If Yumiko referred to herself as a hybrid, nonsense or stating a fact?

These Yumiko evolution renders are truly magnificent, and your posts have piqued my curiosity...
Is "Akari" the name of a Daz Studios-produced character, or a 3rd party Daz character, or a variant name you have assigned to this character? The only Akari I can find at Daz3D is a G8F character that doesn't look like Yumiko, and I seem to recall reading that the Game characters are G3F girls (some may have originated as G2F, but I think have been subsequently updated to G3F).
I agree that there are some challenges related to producing visually appealing Asian Daz characters, and that good Asian assets are indeed rare, noting that my Daz character production skills are borderline intermediate at best, in comparison to your and Darkhound's highly advanced skills. I did an experiment with producing a variety of "Holiday Island-esque" Asian characters (see below), and determined that none of them are "ready for prime time" or even theoretically suitable candidates for prototypes of future Game special characters; at least not without extensive revision. Some of that may be due to my mediocre Daz skills, but I think it still illustrates the issue.

I have run into similar issues with trying to produce satisfactory dark-skinned Daz characters. I invariably run into rendering issues and problems getting good skin detail.

Name
Akari is just a name I assigned to her.
Assets
Most textures I use are mixed and then PS'ed before actual Daz use, their Daz originals are therefore raw materials not really direct use assets. Some very old girls do it different.
Blacks and Asian
The approach is plain horrible for Asians of course.
They hate mixing (eyes, eyebrows) and what not
Blacks just defy lighting in general and since they are unpopular they have asset starvation on top.
Though one can cheat (change a white texture to a black in PS, unlimited supply).
Your examples
Think they are okay starting points.
The classic style is honestly super expensive in time, years. For most it is usually better to experiment with the default and then strike for some shader experiments when one feels a girl is a keeper.
Genesis
The game generally uses G3F as its base, though they can have different origins ex. (Faye) is ancient.
I also use G3F, despite starting far into the G8F age.
But would not recommend others to do so at this time, G3F is a legacy base, not alive anymore when it comes to new assets. So that involves a lot conversion and tinkering. Unless of one really wants to go for the classic pinup style of course, then sure why not.
Okay getting off topic,
Samantha says "Get back to the basics Duckswim"
Yes Ma'am, will do

Oh I reckon there are more on team Sam.
Especially older Darkhound fans, Sam always was very popular and the best of the trio who dominated things way into Jessica's arrival.
And she is my favorite Darkhound girl (surprise, it is not Yvette) so there is that too.
But, given her pedigree Sam would be a ultra prestige girl.
So she'd not do random old resort and she'd be expensive, even as special.
Darkhound would need to declare a lot of old girls as legacy first.
Tell him he can tag anyone below Alice, then negotiate if he seems interested

Well, she did get mentioned in Aly's costume tryout scene, so there's always hope!!!Oh I reckon there are more on team Sam.

I already tried everything from,
Pure fun
- You like Sam, I like Sam, Everybody else will go nuts (when 10 girls are retired for her)
- it is what win-win always wanted to be, win-win-win.
- Faye, Natasha and Aly are old, tragic really (remember to shake your head sadly here).
- Btw How is Sam these days?
- Loan you Iris, Yvette is happy
- You add Sam, Yvette is happy, twice!
And if all fails, use this,

I assume there's going to be sex scenes with all characters eventually.
Another thing I'm noticing is there weren't any sounds during the sex scenes until playing halfway through the game. Now it looks like there are. Any fix for this?

Not really. You have to remember the game is over 4 years old. Sound wasn't added until a couple years ago. Chances are the scenes you are talking about were a part of early game development.
Hi everyone,
First time poster and wanted to say to DarkHound, DuckSwim and all, thank you for a great game. I've lurked here for well over 2 years and played the game for a little more than that. Love the graphics and girls. I have played it without issue (just jinxed myself) on Mac and though many have issues, I haven't even when adding the various fixes or extras (think the mods). Looking forward to my favourite girls v3.6 updates (I'm a Mercedes and new Ivy camp person). Though were my mind to run away with naughty thoughts, Heather being a red-head, steals my loins and any mind I might have trying to fight not descending into adolescent activities.
I know DarkHound is not going to entertain anal for the ladies; but I would say, were it to ever happen, Aly and Yvette would be main ladies to have such fun with, and add Jessica, Sara or Joy for a threesome, well I'm off to heaven...
Love the game and keep the hard work up.

Someone should make a mod for anal. I mean how hard can it be to do that.
I am willing to gave who ever try this all support I can give(this excludes monetary, technical, art, programming, testing or moral support)
(if not clear this is sarcasm but anal mod would be sweet, and some of us would appreciate normal size(but still big) tits mod
)

To continue on Yumiko evolution I really like Vina Sky. Just as an idea for potential future characters. (For non Asian Veronica Leal)
Now question for DarkHound:
have you tried one of those DALI algorithms. Can something like that help you create more and faster
Here is link to how to do your own data set:
I have no idea how hard or even possible this is in your case.
I plan to look in to this, but as of now have no skills in it

But that aside,
Ren'Py games do not have a graphics engine, it is pre-rendered images, mods therefore do not make sense, they are non-applicable outside of code or text as there is no engine nor 3D model to mod.
Change to a static image involves redoing it.
Usually by the developer.
Would take about 6.000 hrs for the full game and around 200 hrs for an average girl (which would be followed by a girl's immediate removal from the game due to double up costs for all old and future content.
