New Otaku

[IIIlll]

So i wana make a retexture of the Otaku room, but first I started cleaning it up   I removed some textures for the garbage bags the bottles and the TV dinners, but the shadows are left/ Does anyone have an idea how i can remove the shadows?

I think you have to delete the .txf files in the folder as well.

Could be a couple reason, the shadows could be burned onto the textures, that is why they are appearing. So try creating new textures. There can also be a lightmap in play. So you have to disable that. And this may be the most complex, but you will have to fix the lighting/ create new lighting.

This looks similar to the 3DCG House, where the shadows are part of the room texture sheets (like a combined lightmap)

I don't have this room, but if you want to send me the original, I'll have a look for you.

@aardy @RzyKns

The texture files are shred with other assets, I attached the modified files

The room is here

@Smoke I dont thhink there is a light map at all in this room, as the customizer menu lighting sliders still work as if it has the stock lighting. I might be wrong

[aardy]

Well, this is a bit odd...

I've had a look, and I don't have any main shadows at all (see screen) - are you using Hook?  I don't and that could be the problem here.

The only shadows I found are for some small scattered items, and that is texture 'R9ZRoom281_Object030'.

Sorry but I don't think I can help with this one

@aardy ye its probably hook i guess then i will try turning off all shadows from hook

Ok nice, i can turn off the main shadows from the F4 menu, i guess that's one way to fix it

[IIIlll]

lol that actually fixes all my R9Z rooms, they were sso dark by default, cus im guessing they all dont have hook light maps so there is only one light source that come from the outside 

[aardy]

Glad you got some benefit from that

This link is just to the base addon file, and any edits you do to it will not be able to maximize your Hook5 settings.

Make an activemod version of the room, and create (or copy) a _levdef file for the room. That way you can play with the all benefits of Hook5. 

So, in a more ideal situation for your retex you would need an activemod enabled folder of the textures found in the .7z/.zip file. Which can be found if you unzip the file, and then go to Images\Q=Tex032M\Luder\Room\R9ZRoom281. There you can copy the R9ZRoom281 folder, and place it in your activemod folder. If the addon has been enabled for activemod textures, then you can begin to edit away while the game is running to see the changes in real time. (F4, then reload to see your hook objects interact with the room's light source)  Removing (or renaming) the .txf files would be what you'd want to do to remove those sort of baked in shadows. Also, replacing the texture files of the objects you want removed overwriting the files with a blank .png file, and then delete/rename the .txf files to have the object completely disappear. 

I usually only play with the PoseEditor, and I hope that this helps, because I only fiddled with a few rooms in the past and this is what I've learned.

好东西，谢谢分享

[Mr_V2]

can someone explain how to delelte objectes form a room ( non h5 objects ) for example a table from jail room?

[Sexvision]

You will need a active mod folder of the room for this. and the table need to have its own texture.

Find the texture in your active mod folder for the yail and make the texture for the table 100% transparant will do it.

Using empty textures and setting the .txf files to transparent also do the trick sometimes.
