Mods Troubles with 2.0 Game Version (Please read it up, this is important for any mod user no matter if you picked from me or any other creator)
🕑 Added 2025-01-03 13:36:12 +0000 UTC Sadly what I feared when I first heard it from leakers 2 month ago actually ended up happening : Wuthering Waves 2.0 version wound/weathering new features are making almost all mods unstable. Those alternative textures will enter the scene when any active resonator is damaged below their 1/3 max Hp. Although It won't happen 100% of the time since there is a "random" variable behind that will decide if the base texture is replaced or not by the "wounded" one (like a dice throw). When it finally occurs, you can imagin that the game go to another place to pick those brand new special textures that weren't edited/worked in our mods making your current appearance somewhat reverted back to a (weathered) vanilla until your next heal, swap or teleportation. (see the screenshot)
Still, for us mod creators this feature is a calamity that will force us to go back to our oldest creations to make them compatible with this new feature. And yeah, that won't be a quick job on the fly : it will mean a lot of additional working hours to reach the new game version standards. The lazy way would be to replace those new alternative wounded texture with the same as normal state, hence making this new feature disappear. So with no other choice I'll take that temporary solution for now in a rush to update my past mods to a state that won't break too much your immersion but I think that on the long run and with more time I'll play along by giving new custom made wounded textures for each of my mods! (which I'm deeply confident only a few creator will follows, due to the insanity of this choice)
Also, the only exceptions that won't suffer from this new feature will be :
mods implying new mesh with custom external textures (like bodyparts or characters from other games, etc). Result will be they will more likely never have this feature compatible on the modified areas.
mods that are simple 3D edits with no texture rework or recolor. In this case there is fortunately for us no "wounded" 3dmesh state that could break mod's integrity. Result will simply be in most cases the new textures deployed by the mod without any flaw.
Thanks for reading, don't hesitate to spread the info if you come accross some people confused about this. I've been quite early to realize the root of this issue and I'm already working on the first mod fixes but that will takes quite some time. I'm also sorry to inform you that as a consequence next mod (Carlotta) will be delayed accordingly. But please continue to support our white rabbit mod factory, needing you guys positiveness now more than ever!

And finally and lastely Yinlin is done! That's it, all mods have been updated to a stable state. Feel free to download and install them again in their lastest versions. I didn't test them all so if you see one of them still messed up after taking too much damage, please report it to me. Remember in their state you won't have any glitch/bug anymore but the damage/weariness/wound new feature will be shut down until I find the courage and time to do mine own. (That will be the same for every mod that edit textures starting now, unless the creator takes additional time to cover it). Honestly I didn't see it as a game changer, especially with seeing the sloppy work on Jiyan. So I guess you can relax because it's not that of a big loss imo. Now I have some missing sleeping hours to recover, then I'll start working on Carlotta. If you paid for a past commission, please make me a private demand so I can give you the updated version because I can't remember them all.

Lumi is done! At this rate I'll be back working on my Carlotta mod way sooner than I expected.
Shirohô
Baizhi done & updated. Nothing wrong to report here humans!
Shirohô
Shorekeeper done. That one was a bit tricky, there were other strange texture duplicates, keep me in touch if anything is wrong with her.
Shirohô
Changli done! Mods without toggle or different options or color are faster to edit fortunately.
Shirohô
Yuanwu done as well. I managed to do it fast because he was still fresh in my mind.
Shirohô
Zhezhi is done too. That makes me think I had to do an alternate version with her glasses restored
Shirohô
Also done for Jiyan in all his mod version! Although something was weird in his case : he only had one new weathered texture for his black chest piece lol! (decency would be at least 4 like the others), Were Kuro devs sloppy on him?! Why! Poor Jiyan he doesn't deserve neglect... May be they will add more later on.
Shirohô
And done for Mortefi! All versions accross all websites

Female Rover Shinobi is now updated too. That's 2 done in a single day. I was a little faster on her, I mean it took me 2hour but hey that's an honest gain! I'll keep you all in touch on this trend this way, adding a comment each time I'm finished with a conversion of one of past mod.

After 3 hours+ and a big headache. Xiangli Yao is now the first one to be fixed! You may download the mod again from here in his posts or over banana/nexus. Doing the next one tomorrow until all are done, *sighs* following days will be horrible my human friends...
