About this image

I had a little conversation with kildaremc about 3D model modding here: https://www.nexusmods.com/finalfantasy12/mods/30?tab=posts
So I did warm-up with editing Penelo model in a free time. No new verts, no new faces/triangles, no big changes in numbers, just rearranged model. (Red boxes on verts count for proof).
As I said and hope for being it true: Possibility of changing something that already exist is gonna be probably enough.

(model lurked from posts: https://www.nexusmods.com/finalfantasy12/mods/23?tab=posts)

Ignore the holes and no texture/just color on model, it's a 10 minute work.

    I dont know if you have seen this, but somebody has just released a mod that does a model swap for Vaan, something that seemed impossible before. Does this mean that your mod could be finished and implemented now? Please say yes!

    This is great, genuinely. I think one of the most desired mod features in ffxii was always the ability to inject custom models

    That being said, wasn't there already someone who was able to put 3d models from other ff games into the game, with rig and everything. I'd like to say it was Ifrit or Diabolos but I'm not sure anymore, as long as they have an idle, attack and preferably walk animation for those who aren't floating.

    Other than that custom humanoid models could just reuse the same rig and animations from one of the ffxii playable characters, I guess similarly to what you were trying to do

    Real shame this didn't work out, Pen's RW design is much better than her original one.

      I second this. I know XULL has been busy, but yeah, wondering if any progress has been made myself. I say this as someone who's been pretty distracted lately and haven't finished working on my own texture mod lol.

      ...the Super Uber Duper Penelo enthusiast aka 3D model is in non-work work state...
      I mean work on 3D model is suspended until (choose one):
      - kildaremc will come with 3D packer/unpacker
      - I'll find the way to do it by myself before kildaremc (level of doubt: Man it's huge)
      So right now it's like making new tires for car, when cars are not invented yet. But dont worry when time comes. 3D modeling is no arcane magic for me. :D

      please ask to kildaremc to create that packer\unpacker, because every fucking time the major problem is represented by the pointless and motherfucking measures of crypt that prevent modding to be accomplished easily , seriousely the default body for penelo is ridiculous , while this body and this dress showed only in a fucking cutscene is absolutely perfect and make the character completely enjoyable
