@immi wishing try to use the lnk.reshuffle for experimenting with Hayabusa's face free slot I finally got the time for testing it with a replacement of textures: anyway, when I click on "write changes", after to have indicated what files to swap, I got an "[Errno 13] Permission denied" related to the "chara_common.bin" file (same for "chara_inital.bin"); of coure the final outcome is that no replacing happens.

Making some researches, I realized that a such error in python could mean a lack of permission, but I wasn't able to understand about what and how to fix it. Do you have some ideas about?

uhm, not really. maybe you created your Doa5 folder with administrator rights, and now run lnk_reshuffle as a normal user? That would explain why you don't have the permission to modify files.
or, wild guess, maybe you have Doa5 running in the background? If the files are still opened by another programm you might get an error (though I don't know if you would get that 'permission denied' error msg)

Thanks for the reply =)

No, Doa5 is not running in background while I execute the program. The administrator matter could be effectively the explanation, but seems that there are strange things related to it. In the standard way I can execute the software through the "ink_reshuffle" python file and the "start" windows batch one. The first one doesn't show in the properties a "run as administrator" option, while the second one has the option unavailable (the box "run as adminsitrator" can't be selected).

If I try to apply the run as administrator option to the exe of Python 34 and then I return to your program, ink_reshuffle doesn't start closing its window automatically. I still can use it trhough the "start", but after that I click write changes the black window make its procedure and then close almost immediately don't allowing me to read what it wrote (and of course the files don't result swapped). I read in another forum that it's not ordinary a similar closure of the program after to have selected write changes.

You're right, I hadn't thought of that... it's unfortunate But thanks for trying

@immi

Do you know a way to to change what default costumes hair and faces they use like in the dlc tool? there are a bunch of extra faces like mila's bandaid and raidou heads i want to use as custom hair/faces, but doing so will ruin those costumes for those characters since I cant tell them to use their default head. I could just repack them as dlc, but that will waste costume slots and still leave the original broken costumes floating around.

also, do you know what controls glasses? the face model I'm using for alpha has glasses in it.

but the glasses option is still crossed out.

maybe select "run as administator" from the right-click menu (for start.bat) ? (iirc, that option is available for .bat files, even if it is not there in the properties dialog)
there is probably a way to actually change the access rights of the folder to give everyone write privileges. But Microsoft sure made that a very confusing operation. without having a windows pc in front of me right now, i don't think I can give you much hints for that.

probably there was some error and the program quit. Unfortunately Windows always closes the console window after the program quits :/.

no, haven't traced that down yet. But yes, that is definitly something that I want to find Same with the alternative textures (.H, .HL files). Swapping a costume with alternates against a costume without (or the other way) has the chance to produce some glitches.

Cool . did you find the way to make alpha transparent ? (or it only transparent when sweating like you said above ?

ah okay, thanks for the reply and hopefully you can find it

also, I guess I edited my last post a little too late, you know anything about the glasses issue?

Only her hair. Didn't bother doing it since its weird to see her bald head through the hair. can't get transparency to work on the body at all, only the shiny skin I can get working, and only when shes wet.

since alpha has a school uniform, I guess she needs a gym one too with an appropriate name tag

also, which is a better bra colour?

also, matching swim uniform

I think I've posted a lot of pictures today, ill stop for awhile

Oh man I will die if you don't release this DLC lol Is there a shimapan underwear option? You can't go wrong with shimapan.

BTW the proper name to write her name in Japanese is アルファ152, although even in Japan they usually spell it in english ^^

I will see if I can get better effects, if not I'll eventually release a 20 pack as is

I would give her that option, but giving underwear options to alpha crashes the game

The website i used for the translation said アルファ is the katakana and あるふぁ is the hiragana, and since the costume was copied from kasumi which had かすみ and the site said that was her hiragana, I went with the hiragana for alpha.

http://www.kanjizone.com/kanjiname.aspx?name=Kasumi

http://www.kanjizone.com/kanjiname.aspx?name=Alpha

I was thinking of the english option like phase 4, but english writing on those uniforms look weird to me for some reason :/

Awesome, can't wait I can understand why you thought hiragana was appropriate, but the reason Kasumi's name uses hiragana is because it's a native Japanese word, while Alpha uses katakana because it's an english loan word. I agree though Phase 4's name tag does look a little odd!

 

[xDevious]

Oh man! Words can't explain how excited I am that you can FINALLY model swap Alpha! My dreams of a badass rather than depressing Phase 4 is about to become a reality!

ah okay, well its been fixed

well there is still limitations. It wouldn't be a clean dlc installation. I had to create a custom head and hair, so they will have to be injected with lnk_reshuffle. there will be 4 or 5 hair styles for her + one head and there is only one free slot, so some stuff will have to be sacrificed (like the many heads of raidou )

Awesome work @bbb, you need necessarily to release this DLC (even if actually I'm pretty sure that I will not able to use it if ink_reshuffle is involved... I still have problems with its working ).

Also thanks for the explanation about the name of Alpha-152 @synce: another interesting trivia about the character, that however could remain unknown to the Western fans until DoA4 while was made clear to everyone with the introduction of the English dub from DoA, is that actually her "number" in Japanese is spelled as three separated numbers, so as one-five-two. This is was a revelation for me that I'm used from DoA4 to call her as "one hundred fifty-two" xD

Oh yeah I totally forgot it's pronounced 1-5-2... Look at all this Alpha love though. It warms the cockles of my heart.
