Same status as before but I’d say the mod is 90-95% done. I’ll be working on a showcase video soon

I’ll just spill the beans. The mod is around 80-85% done, but we have been holding off on releasing it til ModHQ 2.0 is up. Makes sense to drop that mod with the new site being up (and for other cheeky reasons I won’t disclose for now).

If you want, join the ModHQ Chatroom and you can test the mod. We have an early access group there.

Finally some good ******* news today. I can't wait to play BG3: The Definitive Edition (now depozzed).

[PaxVenire]

Excited for this. What's the changes between this and BBA?

@loregamer

It's going to tackle every NPC that needs changing, and effects the Character creator too.
BBA was not as thorough.

[loregamer]

I’ll write up a description and update the main post later tonight

[PaxVenire]

Sweet. ETA on when this comes out? I saw you had a playtest version in a chat or something but I'm new here

[loregamer]

I'm creating a GUI tool for the NPC Aesthetics part of the mod. I'll be releasing this when the mod comes out. So if you guys want to redo the color/hair distribution, you'll be able to create a curated PAK file with your own preferences.

wip ui, will look better later

---

I'm not releasing it quite yet because it's still buggy I need to research if I can force every mod author who uses it to release it with an open source license (Ideally, everyone who makes a mod with it would have to make it open source, open permissions)

By bug, you've made the UI and there's nothing in the backend yet .

Anyway I designed the entire NPC Aesthetics Component in R. So in order for it to be made available to users it needs to be converted to python, . I don't envy anyone wanting to do it from scratch.

"convert this to python"

Yeah I tried for one of my other projects, was making something for Kowe, chatgpt gave me garble.

git gud

[orinEsque]

Anyhow since MODHQ 2.0 isn't coming any time soon. I'll maybe post the NPC Aesthetics portion that I've already completed first.

I feel like AI really struggles with Python because it's so finnicky. You need everything perfectly spaced and tabbed or the whole thing blows up

It seems to be a lot better at it in the past few months

Thank you, Obi-Wan Kenobi. You are our only hope.

[loregamer]

I think this mod name is locked in.

[loregamer]

I want you guys to know one thing. I did the most work on this mod, because I had to subject myself to working with women

Remember what I sacrificed for you, bros...

You are a hero, a legend, a gentleman and a scholar.

Mod will release soon™

Unlikely, from his profile: "Last active: 09 Feb 2024, 17:01". Bad news everybody.

it's over, guess we'll have to beg OrinEsque to pick up the torch

I gotchu bros

We're so back (and so am I, after my long absence from RPGHQ)

Wait, women? As in, plural?

Is there another outside of orinEsque? That's impossible. Are you sure it's not just a GIRL?

@Silver

I jest but this mod has been really fun to work on. Got horrified at the distribution spreadsheets and trying to understand what they created for the NPC part of the mod

[orinEsque]

I just race / gender swapped 250 NPCs (code magic ofcourse , ain't nobody got time to do that **** one by one)

1. Midgets to human
   
   
2. Swapped some half-orcs to human
   
3. A whole bunch of aggressive guard/merc types from female to male (these ones don't have voice lines, the ones that do will go in a separate Degirlboss mod)
   

we'll may scale de-midgeting down a little in case bg starts looking TOO human. credit to @Silver for flagging them for swaps.

Need to work on Nettie to get her human version to grab knife properly. then we're all good on this part of the mod.

orinEsque is to women what Clarence Thomas is to black people.

Edit: This is a compliment, in case anyone not in the know of modern American political discourse is confused.
