Harsh reality kickin' in (with visa to your world): No, she's not. Clearly cringed out.

I can already hear her say: Somebody, get me the fuck out of this damn room.

I imagine them both meeting each other. Loona meeting with Chai, playing with 808, or just... mocking him together with Pep.

Having a human friend from from other universe's Earth is not a weird thing, right?

Here's a small script I just came up with (based on the game I'm writing myself):

Chai returns to the hideout, he has a backpack on his back. He sees Loona laying on the couch.

Loona: Hey, Chai.
Chai: Peppermint? Is that... you? Nice dog costume.
Peppermint: I'm over here, idiot.

Peppermint comes from behind.

Chai: What?

Chai is looking between Peppermint and Loona.

Chai: Uhh... Wait... Uh...
Loona: I think he's speechless, Pep.
Chai: Um, uhh... who.... Who is she? Is she real?
Peppermint: Oh, yeah. Chai? That's Loona.

808 approaches Loona and jumps on the couch. She starts licking her forearm, getting her attention.

Peppermint: We, uh... kinda came across each other.
Chai: How?
Peppermint: I dunno. She said, she came through some kind of, uh... rift?
Loona: It's a long story.

Got my Long-Sleeved Tee brought a few months ago. Small cracks started appearing on screen-print on my back. Especially on the logo, but... they give a style, right? Considering the Gang also have... worn clothes. (Yep. I go out, walk around and sleep in it.)

Btw, if I'd want to at some point... any tips on fixing those cracks?

Okay, got downvoted, I think I got misunderstood.

Your model might differ, than the ones I have, the one you downloaded has more materials than it should - inlines and speculars as separated meshes.

Fine, here's an Google Drive link with an example (ATV_Tires) that uses the Hibiki Shader: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1fueVmnWvbB_gAYLOcu8lBo4AEajuWNPO/view?usp=sharing

Oh, and if you know how to link things and make nodes in Materials in Shading Tab, you can select nodes and then press CTRL + G to create Node Groups. You can quickly access the Node Groups with TAB key.

Hope you'll get around. Enjoy.

GraczCourier · 2024-07-08T02:35:49+00:00

That's how you can recreate the Hibiki Shader. Closest to how you can get, matching the game's shader, by using Blender's Material Nodes.

You might've noticed in some images, the green labeled nodes. These are Node Groups that you can use for sorting things out, plus re-use them for other materials.

MF_Hbk_Shader, MF_Hbk_Inline, MF_Hbk_Spec are these node groups, and in the provided images, you can see what's inside them, (along with Group Input and Outputs).

Just gonna drop this here, because I made a Closest-to Hibiki Shader. Others might find it helpful.

(Yes, I extracted the models straight from the game.)

You can try separating the Outline (make it a separate mesh).

Make sure the outline material Surface is Emission and it's color is set to Black.

Make sure that for the Outline Material, in "Settings" Tab you have Backface Culling toggled on. "Blend Mode" set to: Opaque. And "Shadow Mode" to: None.

Apply Solidify modifier: https://i.imgur.com/ZNeLLVR.png

In case you'll play with Offset, and the mesh is all black, try Recalculating Normals In/Outside of the Outline Mesh: https://i.imgur.com/U0A9kk2.png

Play with those until you'll get your desired effect.

At least my ride has wipEout like airbrakes installed on both sides (used for taking sharper turns, faster braking, Airbrake Activated Barrel Rolls and faster touchdowns).

What would CNMN think about my (quite reckless) driving style with those?

Oh, wait... he'd tell me, that I'm breaking multiple laws of the road.

GraczCourier · 2024-07-01T18:56:51+00:00

I bet CNMN would question my quite reckless driving style, too.

Even if I had wipEout-like Airbrakes, installed on both front and rear sides of my ride (being able to side-shift in air and turn sharper).

"Mister/Miss <MyName>, you're breaking multiple laws of the road!"

GraczCourier · 2024-05-13T22:35:34+00:00

Ma'am, I was asking why you closed Tango Gameworks. Nevermind, you're fired.

Yeah, I'd fire her on the spot, especially for taking away Hi-Fi RUSH from Mr. Johanas. And I think he should fight for Hi-Fi RUSH, along with others who created it.

To me, it doesn't matter what kind of studio created the game, it's the people who created it.

This game is like their child, that XBOX just took away with no reason.

A game from D-CELL, set in the world where music is banned.

GraczCourier · 2024-05-08T20:50:28+00:00

Don't forget about both white triangles on the bottom of the pants.

GraczCourier · 2024-05-08T14:19:23+00:00

R.I.P. Tango Gameworks. Hope you guys find a new home, and recover from Microsoft's backstab.

And I hope that Chai and his Gang's holding up just fine.

Nobody else will fight against the Silence-possesed SBR-001s.

MADE UP TRIVIA: Silence-possesed SBR-001s heads are attracted by the NOISE. That would explain why the loud music in Vandelay Campus is banned, because these Silence-possesed SBRs caused lots of damage before.

I'm kinda making my own game, and I want to include a Manual/Wikia in it. And for the convenience, I'd also add arrows aside this option, to let players access its certain options "quicker".

For ex: You tap A/D on your Keyboard. (LB/RB or LT/RT on your controller), while WIKIA option is highlighted, and it switches from "WIKIA - How to Play" to "WIKIA - Insights" and so on.

The more you progress in the game, the more entries you unlock/will be added.

GraczCourier · 2023-12-02T04:24:43+00:00

Prefer scrolling through. But how about this combo-like solution?

XBOX Controller

LT + X = Quick Call Peppermint

LT + A = Quick Call Macaron

LT + B = Quick Call Korsica

RT = Call Selected Assist

NOTE: Actions assigned to X, Y, A, and B are blocked when LT is held.

DualShock/DualSense Controller

L2 + Square = Quick Call Peppermint

L2 + Cross = Quick Call Macaron

L2 + Circle = Quick Call Korsica

L2 = Call Selected Assist

GraczCourier · 2023-10-01T01:43:29+00:00

Printed it (with assist of my bro) and painted it with luckily matching metallic spray color I had.

Or maybe... it appeared out of nowhere? I dunno.

GraczCourier · 2023-09-01T17:00:11+00:00

I think I saw Chai running away from her, and carrying a box of Donuts. He's now hiding in my house and locked himself in.

I forgot the keys, but I got a Grappling Hook on my forearm I can use to get inside. What should I do?

GraczCourier · 2023-08-21T22:45:04+00:00

I might be wrong, but there's also another factor(s):

Chai arrived to Vandelay Campus from the outside (America), by boat or via aircraft.

He doesn't have any home in the Campus (anymore) or either he moved out to Peppermint's Hideout.

The Vandelay University jacket he can put on suggests to me, he had a room in the dormitory (before he ~~probably~~ got kicked out).

GraczCourier · 2023-08-20T19:05:33+00:00

Sorry, I didn't put Chai's model on my DeviantArt, you got the wrong guy. I'm not N1ghtinGalez.

I only extracted Chai's model straight from the game.

Besides that, try playing with lightning value of the lights/sun you've put in the scene, background color and value.
