Psyn's Nude Patch Compilation v1.0
----------------------------------

I put together what appears to be the best of the nude patches as of right now. I'd like to say that Ahriana, Sandrae and ShadySnake have done some great work making the female skins which are included in this. Huge props to them and everyone who has contributed to their efforts.

The zip file below contains the following:

ShadySnakes Succubus, Human Female and NightElf Female
Ahriana's WoW nude patch for the rest of the Females
Psyn's Male No-Undie patch for all the male models.

Long story short this will replace all of the female skins with what I think are the best looking skins out there and remove the males underwear. The males show *** but no junk as they look like Ken dolls. Enjoy, please feel free to use any of my stuff freely and thanks again to everyone who did the real hard work.

*EDIT*
As with all the quickly done patches, ahem, this works fine on the player model but has the tendency to make other player models vanish leaving only the shadow circles. I wouldn't recommend using this until it has been fixed.

See? It's all there.

For the skilled women out there:

Well, if you know how to make and edit the textures of the Male bottom....i found some textures...

maybe this can be handy....

Look here:

You can cut the bottom out of this pic and paste it into the WoWModel skin :P

If the shirt was one that doesn't change appearance when a male or a female wears it, it doesn't get changed through that batch file. Try a different top and see if it works.

Anyways that's not what I'm saying. Please re-read my post then come back and make some type of sense.

What I'm saying is if it can be done with the pants why not every other piece of clothing/gear

Don't be so hard on yourself, TomPaxton. I've preferred your Trolls. For one, I was changing the skin color in the create a character screen, and I noticed the nipples changed a bit... Not only color, but also size, or position, or something. I was glad to see someone realized (assuming this was intentional) how to make some flexibility.

I've been at work with a new release. No, it's not a typical add-on like I mentioned before that I might do. Initial exploration into that option wasn't yielding the successful results I hoped might be possible. It adds something different entirely. However, as nobody with transparency issues responded to the last post, I'll hold off on my next substantial release for a while longer yet, hoping that someone will look into the previous release I made (no, I'm not referring to my batch file) and report results. This way, my future releases can use that information in any descriptions/documentation I write.

In the meantime, these textures worked better than any other Gnome/Dwarf textures I've tried. I haven't checked why, perhaps the other ones I tried weren't really type 2 or 3, containing unmodified base files or something. Thanks for making this release.

It seems that all three of my released projects (batch file, charsect.exe, and what I've made today) all work with Type 2 textures, because those are just so much more flexible.

If the CharSect.exe project release works flawlessly for all, then is there still any benefit from type 1 at all?

Um, Varcan, you do realize that your idea won't work.

WoW uses one texture for, say, a shirt, and layers it over the skin already on the character model.

Making 8 shirts, or whatever, is fine and all, but WoW will not use all 8. Besides which, you're only counting one race. By the time you have made the shirt for all of the skin tones, for all of the races, you're looking at about 40 versions of the same shirt. Though, that's still a waste of time, since WoW will not automatically detect that you are a night elf, skin-color 005, and pull the appropriate skin. It will use Robe_A_02Black_Pant_LU_U.blp (to use an example.) There is not a way to make
Robe_A_02Black_Pant_LU_U.blp human 001,
Robe_A_02Black_Pant_LU_U.blphuman 002,
Robe_A_02Black_Pant_LU_U.blp human 003,
Robe_A_02Black_Pant_LU_U.blp night elf 001, etc.


It would be the most elegant solution to either make a format converter that will preserve the alpha channel, or simply to make a .blp plugin for Photoshop. I wish I had the programming expertise to do it myself.



What we need is a way to make the area shown here:

and highlighted here:

to not be drawn. I made this mockup by doing what Varcan said, but imagine how odd it would look on a dark-skinned human, or a night-elf.

I havn't been able to download it just yet. What method does it use to remove the underwear? If it inserts transparent files in place of the Pelvis and Torso files, I'd consider it Type 2. If it replaces the Pelvis and Torso files with the corresponding section of the Skin file, I'd consider it Type 3 (since the Torso/Pelvis and Skin files look the same). Let me know. Thanks.

Edit: Oh, and by the way, I do like your compilation a great deal, and it will probably be very close to the final patch I use, once all the dust settles. =)

Yes, it is using transparent files in place of the underwear files, though I have not provided my own base skins at all. For compatibility reasons I guess its best to consider it type 2.

I've registered just to ask this :)

Someone suggested changing the undead from the rotten corpses they are to kick-*** sexy undead like Sylvanus the dark ranger and Arthas the death knight. Do you guys think this is possible? Because I would love it to be made.

Then that would be bad. It is understandable if someone wanted to release a filter that runs within photoshop, but if someone was wanting to release an external converter, it would be far better to release a better TGA to BLP2 converter. Not only is TGA better documented, but it can actually be used by people who use a number of different graphics programs, not just those who have paid for (or pirated) the expensive PhotoShop.
