Regarding Wuthering Waves
Hello everyone!
I don't really do announcement posts like these, but since this has hit everyone pretty hard, I figured I should probably make a proper post to talk about it.
Don't worry, its mostly positive! I'm not going away and work on Hiyuki is still progressing!
Kuro has once again removed the workaround for LODs...
Thankfully, my previous efforts at future proofing for this eventuality has mostly held up!
Everything I've worked on since and will be working on have LODs in mind, as such fixing Aemeth and the Wanderer was quick and painless unlike last time!
I paused the future proofing when the last workaround was found, I believe only Shorekeeper, Yuno, and Zanni were left. Since work on Hiyuki is in high gear, I will resume future proofing the rest after Hiyuki is finished.
Since I am here writing this post, I might as well share the current progress of Hiyuki, I post these a bit more regularly on the progress update channel so you can follow what I'm doing and leave me some feedback!
The hardest part, which is missing body mesh, has been fully recreated!
All that is left is to readjust the body proportions to get rid of the weird Kuro anatomy...
I still have no idea who Kuro uses to get human measurements from...
People who reads the server chat would be familiar with this complaint I have with Kuro's human models, but look at how long Hiyuki's body is...
Her pelvis is about half a head length too low, just look at where her navel area is and you should probably be able to notice that something is very off...
But once all of this is corrected along with some enhancement touches, she will be ready for retexturing and costume customization and refitting!
Once again, thank you everyone for you continued support!
I hope this post will help quell your worries on the future of content for Wuthering Waves!
