Tutorial [ILLUSION] HS2 Studio Neo|Chara Maker - (Help & guides Thread)

Dang why do I see alot of bugs after updating to R15.
Luckily I was too lazy to update it atm.
Now I wonder whether I should update or not...

For what it's worth, I've not had any issues with R15 as of yet at least.

Gents, how can I make boobs look longer in Neo2? I.e. as if someone pulls on the nipples and the boobs stretche out? Hoping for a solution that would be capturable via SSS/VNGE. I.e. I know of the "force effect" but regretfully for me that effect affects the entire setup and can't be modified from scene to scene (or at least I don't know how to).

Don't know if this will work on VNGE as I've still not taken time to learn it, but I did a quick and dirty trial using node constraints and this seems to work as a proof of concept. I'm sure you can bind to a hand directly but animating the sphere should be doable right?
Just try moving suki's right hand and you get corresponding push pull on sugimoto's boob.

Is anyone else having issues with the Volumetric Lighting (char) and (Map) lighting up everything instead of just the char and map?
It seems like the only lighting that's working for me right now is the vanilla ones. The rest seem to just light up everything. Anyone else finding this? Might be a R15 issue.

Always have been like that.
You can manually turn off the channel by turning on advanced option in graphic mod setting tab (rightmost tab) then go back to the lighting tab, select the light and you will get channel selection at the bottom right side.

Use video export (no audio) or third party screen recording software.

Hi!
Keep in mind that making a video out of an scene using videoexport plugin demand a lot of disc space, I.e. 2 minutes long can use up to 10GB.
First, you need to configure the video export plugin, I reccomend 24 fps, png format, medium-low quality and only small chunks of video, 30-60 seconds. use with caution cuz sometimes the plugin may will hang by no reason.
Or you can go to capture screenshots (24 screenshots per second) and later using an external video maker software, and merge those screenshots(a pain in the a$$)
Better solution to me is using an screen recording software, and recording only 30-60 seconds per video.
Hope this helps.

Its been like that since forever afaik. The first time I noticed it when I loaded my scene but the lighting became weird and its like 2 years ago. So I chose to only use volumetric light ALL and non-volumetric MAP or CHARA.
After I found that possible to manually select the channel in graphic mod, I found the cause.

Timeline mod is preinstalled if you're getting Better Repack.
Just boot up studio, right click the timeline icon at left side menu.

True. I'm using blender video editor to do this. Its more work to do, but much quicker than using built-in video encoder.
So just use video export plugin to capture the frame and build the video using video editor software.

Every so often when I swap out a character in a scene, their hair will go weird. As if gravity got swapped. If you move the character around a bit, the hair falls normally, but if you put them back in the original position it goes weird again. Anyone know what's causing this and how to stop it? thx.

Maybe its the hair type issue?
Some hairs sometimes stretch randomly.
Try changing the dynamic bone update mode in. HS2PE Adv.
Or maybe the properties itself is the cause (dampening, elasticity, inertia etc).

Or maybe there is a collider there.
You need to reconfigure the collision target after replacing/adding a chara.
But according your issue, I dont think this is the problem.

Is there anyone who knows why i have to load a character twice in creator to see them correctly? Ie outfits upon first load look like mix of perviously loaded character and present on. If I load again everything is fine. Any ideas or fixes?

First time hearing this actually.
I never have any issue in that matter.
Did you use chara loader plugin? Maybe you can ask the modder (ManlyMarco) about it since he's still active.
Or did it just happened after updating the repack version?

I encountered this too, no idea what causes it or what the 1-2-3 fix is.

So why can't I find hooh's scripted dicks in BR R15? I've seen the ddl file as well as I've put the mod on my custom mods folder. I can't find them in studio.
