CHANGELOGS
Cuter Handler Face Model
Added:
- Support for the Samba costume.
- Support for the Chun-Li and Demoness costumes. Updated the main archives, too.
- Support for Techno Handler costume. Graceful Short Dress (china dresss) currently not supported.
- Support for Rose Vestido. I didn’t make a less makeup texture bcz the default texture has makeup anyway.
- Optional hair bangs length for Demoness hair.
- Optional jaw shape for Demoness face.
Fixed:
- The hair transparency which using the original mrl3 files, all I did was copy the mrl3 files over again (both had same date/time).
- Neck on China outfit and Neck clipping for Kokoto outfit.
- Hair physics for the Winter Coat outfit.
- Accidentally used the wrong face model for the new outfits.
Updated the textures: the game may be loading the texture from the parent folder.
Uploaded Halloween medium makeup
Doubled texture size. Reduce the makeup only has double the normal map size. If you have loading issues, try using the old texture files.
Thanks to Cataryst paying for it, added support for Kokoto Gal’s costume and possibly other outfits.
DESCRIPTIONS
This Cuter Handler Face Model mod is uploaded as a separate file, its purpose is used for visibility and less confusion. It has a little different look because it doesn’t have the eye color change, and changed the file set up a little.
Take a note
- Warning: Player have to remove the old version’s files and folders because there is some of the old version have problems with Iceborne
- Besides that, the old version doesn’t work properly because Capcom changed how MRL3 and some other files work and encrypted the archives
- Supports base outfit and Iceborne outfit. There are some alternate costumes are supported, but none have been tested.
- See the old version for more info.
- Added Rose Vestidor normal map into Cuter Handler Face Model mod. Capcom’s is just a tiny pixel, they couldn’t be bothered making a proper one.
