Unity Completed Honey Select 2 [DX R16] [Illusion]

[MrWrongtubes]

I definitely use some of the base poses/animation to get me started and use IK from there on, but I should give FK a real go, since it's really easy for poses to end up kinda awkward w/ IK.

It's kinda nice to know that I'm not the only one who acts out the pose lolol. Ive caught myself doing that a few times already, but it actually helps visualizing how the body is supposed to look like

Haha! You do it too? That's awesome! (Phew, not just me!)

Doing the posing with your own body is VERY helpful for getting your model's hands to look natural and NOT like monster claws, too.

It's definitely what made using FK for hands a lot less scary for me!

 

[MrWrongtubes]

Thanks a lot for your quick answer take care of you and have fun

You too, dude!

We're a helpful bunch here, so if you have any questions or problems, quickly check the FAQ on the first page or use the search function on the top-right.

If you can't find what you're looking for, there's usually someone lurking about who can help

Wait...I taught you something, alex2011?!? I usually read your posts and go "ohhhhhh....I'm a complete idiot for missing that!"

I haven't messed around with the cheat tools much since I couldn't get it to lock onto a girl even after starting a scene, I'm used to how it worked in Koikatsu or AI Shoujo, where it immediately locks onto a girl when you interact at all (Koikatsu) or lists them all at all times (AI Shoujo). I didn't realize there was extra steps involved until you said it. Also, your design video, hope you don't mind but I downloaded it so I don't ave any issues referring to it even if my internet somehow goes down (Way too many run ins with my previous internet going down to trust it), has been a big help in getting my one character so far to stop looking asian, not that I have a problem with that, I just don't think an elf necessarily looks good in the default set up.

I'm not gonna lie, there have been a few times where I'm just like "dude, what the fuck are you doing?" ahaha.

I've been using FK for neck and hand adjustments and it's honestly a godsend for making shots look more natural. I'm not nearly as detail oriented as you are, but moving away from preset hand gestures really helps you get more immersive shots. I dunno about you, but sometimes bad preset hands sticks out like a sore thumb.

 

[BNDFHJeje]

Glad to help. sir! I totally admire the commitment you were putting in before I pointed you elsewhere. This will definitely save some minutes lol

I'm honestly still figuring a lot of things of out myself, but I'm a press-everything-until-fun-stuff-or-explosions-happen sort of gamer, so as I find stuff out, I tend to throw everything I find out into this thread

Whole bunch of tools - very little instructions

Yup thanks. Getting much better renders now especially with a little extra added in Photoshop lol.

Cool stuff as usual but got a question. I'm only eyeing HS2 for the time-being so i don't know all that much since i haven't had the chance to play it but is the shiny skin intended or default?

 

[Lateralus1337]

Sounds like mods were used on that card that aren't in your copy of the game, which is most likely due to not having been ported yet.

The hair was not modded, the clothes might have been, but they are available in R3. I have no idea why the are removed, maybe their ID got changed?

It sounds like something where the game isn't reading it as it should, that's usually with mods, but maybe they screwed up an update...again.

That was intented, i like that

Is there any good pack of additional poses/positions to use and a tutorial of how to ude them?

 

[Suiryu]

how to uncensor?

 

[Lateralus1337]

Yes, typically with Illusion games, each character loaded means more RAM consumed. They rarely try to utilize dedicated RAM on GPUs or anything other than the machine's main RAM supply for that matter.

Is there any fix to clear unused RAM? So that I don't have to restart the game every couple of character edits?

Also, when I copy the card from the backup folder, it's loaded correclty, all details are as they should.

It already is uncensored.

No, there really isn't a fix for the RAM usage issues except redesigning the code itself into a more efficient process. The backup card may be different under the hood, where one card's data is as it should be, the other's is in a way that can't be read.

Are you placing mods manually or downloading them from Updater?

Any mods you add that aren't coming with STN's pack now go in MyMods folder, not the ROOT mods folder like they did before.

Minor change now, but will be huge in future updates, less confusion each time there's a new repack

I am using the mods from the repack. I haven't updated anything either.

On first extract it worked fine as is, until I put mods and plugins in place.

Not had a look at these myself, but this guy's

You must be registered to see the links

seems like a pretty comprehensive selection of poses for you to start playing with. I'd recommend hunting down a pose-sorting mod (there's a few available from the same page) as there's over 420 poses he's collected and added to the mod.

To access them, make sure your model is selected, click Anim > Kinematics > Pose. Any poses you create using Kinematics > FK or IK can be saved there, too. So you can start building up your own collection once you get to grips with how the tools and posing work

As you can see from the screenshot, the vanilla interface is a little crappy, and if you're going to start loading it up using hundreds of poses, a mod to help to sort through them easier is recommended.

Have fun!

Hmm...let's take a look then.

Can you post a screenshot of the contents of your ROOT mods folder, please?

Have fun!

That's a beautiful character, Mr.WrongTubes.

As a former tattoo artist, i always find the way they're rendered 90% of the time in every game i've tried is totally unrealistic.
Colors will only ever look that saturated, with deep blacks and bright highlights, on a piece of paper. Sharpness the same - they're never that crisp. Remember there's a layer of skin on top of them, that means a lot of blur and a lot of tonal overlay. Pale skin like that one can have almost perfect results, while on highly pigmented dark skin you'll barely even notice the ink.

I'd go with something more like this:


If i had the actual tattoo layer to play with, i'd take it a bit further.

Wish I could take credit for this one, but she's someone else's work.

It's funny you mentioned the tattoo detail, because I downloaded her not only because she's a great model, but to see if I could mess around with the layer and get the exact effect you're talking about lol (I'm all about those sorts of details, man!!)

In other spooky coincidences, I was second chair at a studio in Brighton, UK for nearly three years myself and still occasionally design flash for my friend's studio.

I grabbed the card from Discord a while back, so I'll share her here, because she's some amazing work by the creator

Enjoy

Hi, mb I'm a little bit retard but I still can't find DHH. I used a search but anyway coudn't find it

You access DHH menu in-game by pressing P.
Also, make sure the DHH mod is ticked in the InitSettings cuz I didnt have that ticked for awhile haha

 

[MrWrongtubes]

Hi, mb I'm a little bit retard but I still can't find DHH. I used a search but anyway coudn't find it

DHH is loaded differently - You'll need to boot the game via initsetting.exe and check the box for it. Bear in mind it can't be activated at the same time as GraphicsMod.

Default key to open the DHH menu in-game is...er...F5...I think? Little hungover today. Brain broken lol
