[HD Texture Project] Xenoblade Chronicles (v5.0U - May 17, 2014)

[frozenwings]

I have noticed this clipping with Shulk's eyes on some occasions. Is there any way to fix that or is pretty much stuck that way?

I'll definitely try the alternate eyes for Zanza and let you know how it works.

Also, will check out both hair versions. I think I also dumped some more IDs for shulk's hair.

Spoiler: (Show Spoiler)

I'll have to cross reference the known Zanza IDs though to make sure I don't mix them up. Although, I don't know if it makes a difference for zanza since it seems like his other hair textures cover up the part that looks close to Shulk's.

If not, the dump directory is probably in a different place. If you right click and click edit on the batch file, you can set the directory of your dump folder.

Also, it's probably not worth getting too into dumping until after 5.0U since I have about 70,000 additional files to add to 4.5U and Bighead has a ton as well. Although, just from Bigheads Medium borders folder I got about 20ish new sets added to my 550 sets. So, just goes to show you how random stuff is. I'm confident that we have a huge majority of the IDs. But, random is random.

It's going to happen soon. (hopefully) Bighead is coming closer to finishing his maps, and I'm about to start a run up to Makna Forest. After that, probably merge time and 5.0U release.

Aaaah, I got it. The directories werekinda right, however, I forgot to change the folder itself from SX4P01 to SX4E01.
It's just 119 files for now, so I guess it's just stuff you already have. I'll try again after 5.0U

It might not be, you might as well upload what you have right now. If it's anything I don't have I'll batch them with the next set.

Also, you're playing with English VAs, right? It seems like the duplicate IDs are wonky between the difference voices.

@frozenwings
Are you talking about the hair?
If so, yeah I think it is, the top part of the head in particular(is it called hair flap?).
I think it either uses Shulk's hair flap (same ID) or different ID, but should look exactly the same as Shulk's hair flap.

Yeah try that eyes. I tested it, and the clipping seemed to went away.
The way to fix it is to basically remove the solid background of the eyes texture and make it transparent.
But it doesn't happen too often on other characters(and not too major) so I guess they're fine.

Aye, here you go then... http://www.file-upload.net/download-8909065/FILTERED.rar.html
Yep, my guys are speaking frickin' British English. Reyn is hilarious ^^ So, what does that mean? My dumped textures won't do you any good (like, even future ones)?

[frozenwings]

No, they're fine. We've been dumping with English VAs, so until will figure out whats going on with the Japanese stuff (if it's anything besides just a different set of IDs), we're recommending that you only play with English while using the pack. Otherwise, you probably won't be seeing a lot of things retextures.

Sucks because I'm a Japanese VA fan, but the English VAs in this game are actually well done so it's not the end of the world

Also, just cleared the game really quick before I start working and apparently my NG+ save is corrupted. No crown, and when I try to load it up it just freezes on the loading screen. Going to have to try and beat the game again later and see what happens.

No one commented on the straploader. For the maps, I am very close to being done (I can hardly say this without getting overly excited). All that remains is prison island, and it looks like its reusing at least one of the maps from the first encounter. I'm making my way through it now, my guess is its also using the top floor too. The bottom floor is the only one that changed from the first encounter and its only some added stuff. This place should be short and easy. The only big one left is the bionis leg remake, which shouldn't take too-too long. Hopefully no more than 1-4 days for everything, I give a range that big because making these even at this point is unpredictable in how long they will actually take me.

Straploader is sweet looking, but sort of spoilery imo if you're dense.

No one mentioned my corrupted save either, I apparently can't make a new game plus for some reason. I've tried twice.

Good point, I keep forgetting there might actually be people out there that haven't played this yet. I'll make sure to include [Spoiler] on the folder name if included in the optionals.

That sucks about the NG+, I'm not sure what could even cause that (maybe a Dolphin bug?). I'm trying to beat the game as fast as possible so I'll see if it happens to me. You can also try uploading your saves and I can test them out and see if it also happens on my end. I downloaded those other saves and they had crowns so a created NG+ is at the very least working. Maybe its some setting like EFB to RAM or not checking skip CPU EFB access. Or dump/load textures is messing with it. I'm just throwing out wild suggestions.

[Echoes]

Pretty cool looking strap loader, Bighead. I also wanted to try changing the banner around, but got lazy and didn't.

I'm expecting that there won't be that much of an issue with using the Japanese audio with these duplicates, honestly. The mini-map thing from before was most likely because of save states.

Also, the issue mentioned a couple of pages back about Dolphin not loading custom textures at launch when dump textures is also enabled is not a Xenoblade related issue. It has happened to me several times with other games.
