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

AFAIK, you can simply extract .zipmods with 7zip or winrar.

Looks like they only contain a manifest, a resource file and a unity file. None of these can be worked with to separate the audio, unfortunately.

I got the .fsb files from the bgm folder in (abdata/sound/data/bgm) owning ai-girl though using SB3U utility (you'll find it in the modding tool folders). That .fsb is an audioformat for games or whatever so you need an FSBExtractor (got a version

but the extracted .wav is written to "C:<username>/AppData/local/Temp/FSB Extractor/" which is really annoying, idk where to change the output dir lol, but at least it works. The tool is old but still works on win 10 here.
Edit: To extract export the audio (.fsb files) load the unity3d file in SB3U

Good tip!
If you only want to listent to the audio files whitout exporting them, you can use

that can play the .fsb audio files

quick question: is there a tool to quickly check a studio scene for missing dependencies? waiting for a scene to load in studio just to check which mods are missing can take some time, especially if I want to check a lot of scenes.
something like Sharp VaM Tools but for HS2 would be a godsend.

Great! Just in additon (I use foobar for ages and didn't know about .fsb format) you need to install the

This might be a simpler solution as I can record with OBS and extract audio to wav in DaVinci Resolve.

Honestly, to vent a little - I made a big fuckin' mistake leaving SFX to the end of development of my AVN. It's so fucking boring - and it's going to take at least another 10 days. Next episode I'm going to do it scene-by-scene so it's not all at once.

The SB3U tool will play it automatically if you click on the asset file you may want to record this instead of using export and another player.

Edit: Here's another one, used the

cli (command line interface version) to convert fsb to wav. This is much faster than recording all the sh!t lol. You could also use a batch file or powershell script to convert all the files in a folder.

Spoiler: Example usage .fsb to .wav

You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.

Another edit: I just realized that you can simply drag and drop tons of .fsb files to the .exe and it converts them to .wav. no script no cli window needed at all, just make sure they are in the same folder like the decoder as .dlls are needet (I didn't install it system wide).

already checked KKManager but sadly it doesn't provide the functionality I am looking for or rather it doesn't seem like it can handle studio scene cards, so it can't export a list with missing mods

HI!
I use HS2Pnginfo to scoop out what zipmods are used in an scene file/image. Unfortunately, it only displays the mod list used in that especific file, but does not compare them Vs the Mods you have installed in your machine.
Keep in mind that, the list displays the GUID info of the zipmod.

for example the mod from Ailegend is:

[AiLegend] Cut Slut Sweater.zipmod

But the GUID is:

cutiedosdfiogfdgfdfgsdfsfdsdesfsdgfegffdvdfbgdsgeposfjkpojgfpoerdsgddfgdfgdfgdfhjjgfgdfsdgdfgdiodsdhosfeklshsdfhifgfgfhee.example.suit

Is this game has a objimporter plugin like kk? i just want to import small obj model to studioneo

Well, this would at least spare me from the loading times of the scenes in Studio even if I have to check for missing mods by eye. I'll have to test this tool out. Thank you!

I'm seeing some weird distortions on the male character’s shoulders and groin, and on the female character’s hair. What’s the best way to fix this?

Hi Paimon!

try check/uncheck these options.

About the hair, post a picture of the issue to see what is going on.
hit me up if you succeed.

I've been using this damn thing for nine months and didn't even notice the joint adjustment option in the animation tab. :S

Yes, one of my animations has this shoulder issue. No, I'm not fixing it. This is all a learning process. It won't happen in episode 2.

Found this, might be not so easy like with a mod.

Edit: Ci yo09, I've just read the .pdf from Joan and think its a bit outdated so searched a bit deeper and find a Tutorial + Tools from Blake (a modder) but still need unity installed and visual studio, i guess.

Shoulder bone issue.
You can try doing Kaseijin suggested or rotate the shoulder bone using ABMX or HS2PE Advanced window.
There are 3 bones for shoulder, try rotate some or all of them.

Hi, a few days ago I was looking for a way to translate the items in the studio, and I don't know how, but they all got translated from Japanese to English. However, yesterday they were back in Japanese. Since I don't know how I did it, I don't know how to do it again. Does anyone know how to help me? Additionally, when I create a girl and she is in underwear, and I want to enlarge her butt a little, the underwear has a strange effect and a piece disappears. Is there a way to resize the butt without the underwear changing?

 

[AmaNo04]

a way to translate the items in the studio, and I don't know how, but they all got translated from Japanese to English.

Its auto translation plugin
Basically it uses google translate to auto translate stuff to English.
Since it count as machine translation, you might find inaccurate translation.
You can make your own translation by going to bepinex folder.
Find the auto translation file there.

About how it work, it will automatically make an entry when there's japanese or chinese character displayed in the menu.
Note that the thing displayed in search box doesn't count.
So you need to open the item menu (top left) one by one.
You don't need to spawn it.
Just check whether there was a auto translation doing it work.
Then check the auto translation file if the translation is correct or not.
Make a correction if needed then relaunch the game for the translation to be applied

I did my own share personal translation.
Usually the auto translation work when :
1. Opening the add item menu (top left)
2. Stuff that exist in your workspace
3. Spawning camera and new folder and making a new entry in node constraints using those new item (usually it will use フォルダー instead Folder).
I think this is node constraints issue.
4. Using studio chara maker, stuff like clothing and accessories (this translation will be applied in the main game chara maker too).

when I create a girl and she is in underwear, and I want to enlarge her butt a little, the underwear has a strange effect and a piece disappears. Is there a way to resize the butt without the underwear changing?

I assume its the slight clipping issue around lower butt near the anus.
Its known issue from better penetration uncensor.
You can check it in the FAQ.

How do I activate the Advanced Bones Slider menu? Also, regarding the translation, why did it translate a few days ago? Basically, I was trying to create a video with VideoExport, and I clicked some button, then suddenly the menu started translating everything. So I assume I activated something, or maybe there is a specific button, but I've tried and can't do it again. So I believe it can be done automatically without doing it manually. How it happens is a mystery at the moment.
