Thats definitely more than just 10 % decrease ... and I think it wouldnt utilize Tensor cores in RTX GPUs, as this is different approach.

Not so good as I thought at first sight ... sadly. 

You can use cheat engine's speed hack feature to gain back performance lost. The downside is that the game runs slower. Everything will move slower, animation, UI, physics.

I managed to get from 50fps to 80 fps at 0.82 speed(cheat engine).

Here is another video (GPU DM P: VRAM used by Tk, Ram P: RAM used by tk) GPU: 1080TI undervolted a bit (default max clock 1950Mghz). From 100FPS down to 50FPS.

Honestly, this looks pretty damn good regarding the visual improvement and loss of performance. The gain is considerable, the loss isnt too big. I didnt know about this in particular (the name of author rings a bell though ...)

Now, this is something that could be already worked with...and considering RTX GPU isnt mandatory, thats a pretty big enhancement.

Yes it is, but only for rooms like this one, where there are lamps, tv screens and other sources of light. The performance impact is massive, because there is no DLSS or tensor cores.

One thing I didn't show, because it didn't work, is "Render a frame". It will render a still image at max ray tracing quality, and then you really notice the details. For people that like to take pictures, this feature is very valuable because the performance impact becomes irrelevant.

Hello

Is there any mod that allow you to see the preview of skins (and miscellanoeus items) in customization? Like a sort of create a sim? Thank you

no

I get a constant 30FPS with 4 models. 3080ti, r7 5800x, 32GB, 1440p and shadow maps at 2048. I'm able to run skin layers on all 4 models.

Do the cores that run Tk boost to 4.7Ghz? Can you disable the hypertreading or whatever AMD has and check?

I was away for some time and now I cannot for my life find where to change the destination folder for the screenshots taken..

Plz help

 

Binaries\main11.fx

Workaround: use another invisible model and import the animation to it.

I could be wrong, but I searched for it and didn't find it.

 

Can you modify it if you got the add-on?

Custom.03.R9Crown006.rar 517.63 kB · 0 downloads

no, I mean the original, before the port. Usually they have textures you can use to make normal and spec maps for h5.

Basically, does anyone have the HS version of R9Crown006, Kitty-Maid headband?

I love this add-on, but only have the regular version.

 

I'll tell you what, If somebody posts the HS version, I'll upload the custom versions I made :).

you have a name or a link of the original? pm me.

yea, 4 models, but the frame rate is not good i7 7700k 4.5Ghz, 1080ti 11GB, RAM 32GB, 1440p, shadow map 2048

I did some testing with fResolutionScale: 0.7 + MSSA 4x increased my fps, but it looks a bit blurry. Unless you're working on textures, it's very usable. People with lower end hardware should try it. Even 0.9 will increase your FPS with minimal loss in image quality.

After 2 pages I have a feeling that I still don't understand what is the problem, and I still don't understand what exactly is the band aid supposed to do, which problem is fixing.

Anyway, long time ago Raistin Kane also released a simple mod called Custom.K4N3.RootJointTempFix.p001.**x, that was allowing people to adjust the root joint in poses so the differences in height between poses was easy to fix. Wasn't that a solution?

At the top left, you have room locations you can select. When you select a location, the models move to that location. This mod does the same thing, but instead of selecting a new location, you move the 1 location with sliders, thus automatically dragging the models with it.

With sliders, the room location can now rotate and move in any direction, thus removing any limitations the engine has (rotating animations, moving models that have different sizes).

If you press F4, open Graphics, you will find Reload, Save, Load settings. Maybe you can use those to reload room light settings.

A follow up question: Is this just skins in general - that include all skins, or just Hook5 skin layers?

No, it's just a general rule of mine based on my experience. When I add have more stuff in AM, the game tends to crash faster.

\\That means it's not using skin data layers, and it's loading diffuse, normal, spec and sub map the normal way.

\\Example of normal hook5 skin, Female_White_Body_pass:

[pass]
name = CustomSkin
stage2 = fembody_norm.dds

stage3 = fembody_spec.dds

stage4 = fembody_sub.dds

\\The game will load the skin textures from the skin folder and normal, spec and sub map from stage2, 3, 4.

\\Example of skin that uses data layers, Female_White_Body_pass:

[pass]
name = CustomSkin
tessellation_level = 1
skin_data_layers = SkinBody

\\The game will load textures from the skin data file.

\\SkinBody will be in the data file

\\_skin_CN74_Natural.txt is the skin data file in this example

.....................

NormalsResolution = 2048, 4096

SubsurfaceMap = !customizableskin\!skin\!body\female_body brighter legs2a.png

.......................

\\_skin_definition.txt will load the data file _skin_CN74_Natural.txt:

[skin_data_file]
name = _skin_CN74_Natural.txt

Data file from a skin shows up in h5 menu(F4) after you select the skin in Customizer(F12) - body  - skin. You can hover over the skin number and look top left for the name.

Do not install too many skins because the game can handle so much. 182 seems like a lot.

Copy-paste (clone) the skin folder in Activemod, rename it. Then rename the data file inside the skin folder. Then edit _skin_definition with notepad and add the new data file name. Now you have 2 skins.

The data file contain data about color, file paths, size, body parts, layers, etc. You can't miss it.

Your skin is not showing up? That's the problem you're having?

search in poses, static single. There's a bunch of dance poses there.

Did you check the eye setting in H5? It moves eyes up-down. Make sure it's at zero.

 Mine works the same.

hook5 has cartoon look if you enable these

When i load the room is all black, even if i have "Siberia pack h5 objects". How to fix this?

1. Make sure you load the second room(Activemod room) and not the first room(add-on room)

2. Open _level_definition.txt and see if you have the objects loaded in there. If it has "include", check the objects inside those text files too.

try nipplering01 instead of cloth_nipplering01

I thought the cast_shadow was set as a true/false. 

Unfortunately, it's the vanilla piercings, which means I'm going to have to dig into the Archives and extract them to the ActiveMod folder to make _pass .txt files for them when I find where they're located and what they're named as.

EDIT: I've looked through the Archives 2.158.001 'Scene' folder but have been unable to determine what they're named as. I'm looking for what the game has named the piercings so I can make _pass files in the ActiveMod section to remove the shadows.

unzip all 3 and use a search program, like Everything. Make sure your extracted files are outside 2.158.001 folder so that the game doesn't load them.
