Death of my HDD

Some of you might seen it on Twitter: my HDD died on me tonight.

I'll use this chance to not only replace but also upgrade everything that's lost.

I'm buying a bigger SSD, reinstall/update all of the modding tools and try to salvage whatever I can from my external backup drive.

When I'm finished with the recovery, I'll work on some new MHRise outfits.

Things that I can recover are:

• Modding tools and Blender 3D as they are freely downloadable.
• All o...

FF14/FFXIV Unsorted Modding Experiments

A collection of functional, but not perfect mods.

I don't think these mods are all that good. They are lacking detail and there's a few issues.

I still wanted to share them for people who are interested.

The 2B legs are quite nice, but clip through knee-high boots and skirt/robe/dress type equipment. The Southern Seas Swimsuit is specifically adjusted for this as seen in the screenshots.

How do I install Mods in FFXIV?

You will need Textools or P...

FF14/FFXIV (Black) Summer Halter 2Big + Massive Edit

Hi, this is to help some of you to pass the time until my next FF7 Mod release.

This mod replaces the Black Summer Halter in FFXIV, which can be purchased from Aelina in Mor Dhona (22.7, 6.7) in exchange for a Cascadier Uniform Voucher.
You can purchase a Cascadier Uniform Voucher for 2 Achievement Certificates from Jonathas in Old Gridania (10.6, 6.2).

The mod comes in two sizes so far 2Big and Massive.

This mod also affects the Red, Blu...

Tifa Shrine Maiden Fixes and FF14 Mod Experiements

Only some short good news on this topic:

Progress on the Tifa Shrine Maiden Mod is going along steadily. Nexus release and size variations soon.

Aerith versions will be made afterwards.

Yuffie project is still on ice, but not cancelled.

FF14 public Mods (this is a big topic):

I've said in the past that I'd put my modding experiments in FF14 inside a Google Drive that will be shared publicly.
However due FF14 having a larger p...

Tifa Shrine Maiden 2Big/Massive WIP

To shorten the wait, I made a "quick" sized up version of the current Tifa Shrine Maiden Mod as shown on Twitter. It's a concept of what to expect from the Patreon exclusive versions. The link shows you a preview video.

An Update

Tifa Shrine Maiden and Tifa's base body

The last few days I've been reworking the base body for Tifa. I'm condensing her entire body into one material using one texture. That allows me to use the open material slot to put the actual clothes into.

How is that different to the Bunnysuit mod? The Bunnysuit used high resolution textures to add detail. The process of making those textures takes time. By putting the clothes on a material slot that was previously used fo...

Tifa Shrine Maiden Mod Google Drive Link send!

I've send out the Google Drive link mirroring the downloadable files from Patreon to everyone who I contacted about the January Compensation.

If I contacted you before but still miss the link in your Inbox, feel free to send me a private message.

For all active Patrons: you can still download the files from the Tifa Shrine Maiden WIP post here:https://www.patreon.com/posts/t...

Tifa Miko Mod Google Drive Link tomorrow

This notification is primarily meant for everyone I sent a message about the January Delay Compensation.

I'll upload a downloadable version of the new mod tomorrow for supporters on Patreon and on a Google Drive folder.

As soon as I finish the upload, I'll send you a message with the link. The link will be active until the end of March.

As I upload more versions on Patreon, they will be uploaded simultaneously on the Google Drive.

About FF14 Mods

Some of you who follow me on twitter might have seen some screenshots of smaller  edits that I made in FF14.

I'm not planning to make this a constant thing yet. The things I made were made quick and dirty and primarily for my personal use. (So I won't fulfil any requests.)

Some people seem interested regardless and I'll probably give access to it via a Google Drive. I cannot guarantee high quality, compatibility or long term support over futu...

New Mod when?

19th of February!
If not earlier.

I'm planning to put the finishing touches on my Tifa Shrine Maiden Mod after a long delay caused by an unexpected flood of work at my job.

Soon after a Version for Aerith will follow. I still didn't finish the base body for Yuffie, so that version will probably release in March.

The base versions will be available on Nexusmods and the 2Big and Massive Versions (with normal and bigger leg size both) will be avaiable here on Patreon as well...

January Delay Compensation

This month I wasn't able to complete the projects that I started.

To compensate for that I will send a direct message to everyone who cancelled or downgraded their pledge and will lose access to my Patreon content starting February 1st, containing a link to a Google Drive folder where the files for the Patreon exclusive files can be downloaded.

Given I'm still in a very busy situation, I can't confirm when the Tifa Shrine Maiden Mod will be finished. I'll try to complete it as soo...

My neighbour did an oopsie

So I came home to my neighbour flooding her apartment by accident. Of course all that water now comes dripping down my walls and ceilings including the holes and ducts for electrical wiring (electricity is now turned off after taking pictures for the insurance company).

Shit happens I guess, but I'll be busy with removing everything where water has gathered on the walls and ceilings, drying out the moisture and filling out paperwork for the insurance companies for any reparations.

Vacation cancelled again

Someone at my job was hospitalized due to heart failure and my planned vacation is cancelled for the third time. This situation has been an ongoing problem for a few weeks now.

I'm not very happy about this situation and will look for a solution soon. The support from Patreon already allowed me to quit my second job entirely a while ago which allowed me to negotiate better rates at my current job.

Should further negotiations fail and my situation does not improve, I'm going to loo...

Tifa Shrine Maiden WIP

This mod will be a combination of my most popular Monster Hunter Rise mod and a fittingly themed bikini-style top and bottom. As usual I will start with Tifa and follow it up with Aerith.
For Yuffie I still need to create a base body after which I can then give her this outfit as well.

Progress is still in the early stages and very slow but I'm taking special care to work as future-proof as possible in case I need to make some updates or variations to the mod.
Versions closer to ...

A little status update

The last few weeks I didn't have much time to spare, basically being the only person at work before and after the holidays as well as handling the new year's paperwork and family obligations. My plans to have a week of vacation will have to wait though since there is still much work to be done.

Regardless of that I will continue working on mods in my free time as before the holiday season.

The next bigger project is a Shrine Maiden styled outfit for FF7 Remake as determined by the...

About Piracy

I really don't like talking about this topic, so I'll try to keep it short:

Some people reached out to me pointing me towards instances where my work is being shared without my explicit consent.

For digital content it is almost impossible to prevent piracy and I see no reason to implement any additional measures of protection since that would just make things more inconvenient for my supporters. My only concern is that my supporters might feel unfairly treated. 2023-01-06 20:42:03 +0000 UTC View Post

Happy New Year!

I hope everyone had some nice holidays and a great start into the new year!

This holiday season was very tough for me because due to me having to run the holiday business at my job alone. I'll be pushing to take my own vacation as soon as everyone at my job is back.

During that vacation I shall start working on a new outfit mod in FF7 Remake and try to relax a little, so I won't be completing any requests or suggestions on previous mods.

I'll probably continue my FF7 playthr...

Community Poll 04 - New FF7 Outfits

As announced you can leave your vote on the next big outfit mod.

I'll work on those mods the coming weeks whenever possible and prioritize the winner of the Poll. Eventually I want to create all of these Outfits.

Two choices are classical Final Fantasy Jobs, based on their design in the Bravely Default game series. The third choice is an unrelated outfit.
All outfits will be available with the usual variations with increasingly large chest size and (at least) for Tifa and Aerit...

Aerith Bunnysuit (and Squishy Chest)

Patreon exclusive Enhanced Cleavage Version of my "Aerith Bunnysuit" Mod.

There might be some imperfections, but I wanted to finish this Mod before the Christmas holidays.

You download the main file and can freely chose and additional size patch as well as the leotard colour and stocking colour. Only one size patch can be active.

Note that you can combine a leotard colour with another stocking colour. But never install two leotard colours or two stocking colours.
