Announced 2 months and a half ago on Discord, the Haru Estia mod is now finished!

BIOGRAPHY

When the catastrophe known as the Great Void befell Cloudream, the Earth of an alternate universe, the entire world was turned upside down under the reign of chaos and the march of endless armies of extraterrestrial monsters known as SoulDregs. The teenage girl named Haru Estia proved no exception to this inexorable influence. Over the course of her life, her name became associated with many descriptions, from young medical prodigy, to one of mankind's worst criminals, to even its last hope.

At the height of her professional background, a general evacuation order rang throughout her entire home town. She returned home to celebrate her achievements along with her loved ones, only to see her mother crushed under debris, depleted of life. Her despair complete, Haru grieved soundly near her lifeless body, failing even to notice the Void overhead consuming her.

Eventually, with the surrounding area converted by the strange energies of the Void, a man known as Tenebris came upon her and, overcome by pity, welcomed her into the refugee camp which he had established in this now dangerous place. Catching up with events, she learned not only that the camp was incessantly threatened by monsters, but also that she herself had obtained a puzzling power to create swords out of thin air.

Awakened from her grief, but broken still, Haru gradually dedicated herself to the total destruction of these abominations, and put it before even the most basic of human needs such as rest, much to the concern of Tenebris and to the convenience of the villainous Kent, the one responsible for the apocalypse of Cloudream hidden among humans as one of them. Before long, Kent began corrupting Haru's mind, filling her thoughts with ideals of vengeance against humanity itself, and easily succeeded.

Reborn anew, fueled by the power of Desire which originated from the Void itself, and no more human than the nightmarish SoulDregs she once fought, Haru took her first step towards the fulfillment of a bloody ambition - the death of all that is unfortunate enough to fall in her line of sight. Her tenacity inspired other misguided humans, twisted by Desire, to join her, and so, over the next 15 years, thousands would meet a miserable end at the tip of her blade, or at the hands of her followers.

After 15 years, Haru fought a golden woman known as Lakasha, who easily defeated her and removed her from the area conquered by the Void. This resulted in permanent amnesia of all the events that had taken place up until that moment in her life. And so, upon witnessing the suffering in the world, her first instinct was to protect everyone from the danger posed by the SoulDregs, as well as a warlike alien race going by the name of Bashai. As if history itself was ignorant to her dark deeds, the world accepted her as a beacon of hope, with threat after threat dispatched by her awesome powers. To this day, Haru remains the last line of defense against forces of evil beyond the mere mortal's understanding or control.

This mod features:
-three skins: SoulWorker, Advancement and DesireWorker
-five basic offensive powers
-two boosts
-one Xtreme
-visual and sound effects for powers, including new models
-a voice file
-HUDs
-a grab smash whose damage can be upgraded by ranking up the first power

VERY IMPORTANT: Before you install this mod, make sure to backup 0501.igb inside ui/models/mannequin and inside textures/loading. They are, respectively, the model for Thing that you see when you're in the character selection screen and he's not on the team, and his loading screen. Haru's mannequin and loading screen overwrite his. Also, make sure that Thing is not on your roster when you start a new game. Not taking these measures can result in glitches.

All in all, I sincerely hope you enjoy this mod. It's my first ever, and I couldn't be more excited to share it at long last and join the circle of modders. Let me know if you have any suggestions on how to improve it, or if you've found issues with the mod not mentioned inside the README file. Until next time, have a good one mates. Corvette, taking off.

Congrats on your first release! I know you've put a lot of time and effort into it. I've added it to the non-marvel catalog!

Thanks man. I never could've done this without your help and the help of a lot of other people.

[Outsider]

Well done on releasing your first mod! Hard work pays off.

[corvetterules]

It has come to my attention that the grab smash ability was not working. This issue should be fixed now, as I had forgotten to include two interact files.

I have updated the download link as well. Download the mod again and take the interact files from the actors and data/fightstyles folders and place them in those respective folders in the game files. That should fix the grab smash not working.

Congratulations Corvetterules! I saw your mod on youtube and I really enjoyed your work! I will test it and I will certainly present it in my gameplay videos. There are guys who really enjoy the forum content and I'm sure they will like your mod a lot.
Continue with this excellent work!

Thanks, Mr. Anderson! I appreciate the kind words. And don't you worry, I ain't even close to finished pumping out mods yet, especially from the SoulWorker IP.

[corvetterules]

It has been brought to my attention that people have had issues with power textures for Armor Smash and Best Served Cold, and for people playing with consoles, icon related issues as well. In addition, there were issues with the way powers and power ranks were being unlocked. This has been hotfixed. If you experienced such issues, please visit the first post on this thread and download the mod again. And my deepest apologies extended to you for this goof-up.

For the texture problem, very much worth noting is that there are new .igb assets inside the texture folder, and two new folders, decals and nextgen, which also contain .igb files. Make sure you add those to your respective game files, and make sure that you overwrite the talents file and the effects files from the previous Haru mod version with this latest hotfixed version's.

Many thanks to the people who let me know of these issues, A.K.A. UltraMegaMagnus and Anderson Brazil, and as always, thank you very much for your consideration of downloading and playing with my mod! I hope these fixes will suffice.

[corvetterules]

Upon further consultation with some people, my most recently posted hotfix did not resolve the icons issue. However, some modifications I made in the package files have been confirmed to make them appear for console users as they should. I have made a mediafire link to an archive with the good package filesw which you can download and overwrite the current package files with. Thank you for your patience.

I updated my Haru Estia mod with some minor bug fixes and changes.

What you can expect from this update:

-two new loading screens for the Advancement and DesireWorker skins
-fixed an issue which caused HUD effects such as the low HP ring or the Xtreme ready ring appearing behind the actual HUD icons
-fixed an issue which caused control users to not be able to see power icons while in-game
-added a texture to the hair of the Advancement skin

Big issues that still remain:

-for some people (don't know, but maybe even for everyone), the power textures appear corrupted. On my end, everything looks fine. I'm not sure how to fix this yet, but fixes I tried yesterday and the day before didn't work. I'll have to think something up.

Link to the update: http://www.mediafire.com/file/hkvn9nrdfs1yp9g/Haru_Estia_V1.1.rar/file

For those of you who have already installed the first version, 1.0, you only need the following:

-actors/0507.igb
-data/talents/haru_estia.engb
-all the files inside packages/generated/characters
-all the .igb files inside textures
-all the files inside textures/nextgen
-all the files inside textures/decals
-0502.igb and 0503.igb from textures/loading
-all the files inside hud

Replace where necessary.

Thank you, as always, for your patience and for your continued interest in this mod! Until next time.

It's been roughly 3 weeks since I first announced this mod on Discord, and now, the time is finally upon us! Everyone, welcome my second mod ever, the Lily Bloomerchen mod, to the fold!

BIOGRAPHY

Lily Bloomerchen was an affluent teenager from Cloudream, the planet Earth from an alternate universe. She once lived a luxurious life inside the mansion of the reputable Bloomerchen family. However, even that lifestyle would end in the blink of an eye when a catastrophe befell her world, caused by a phenomenon known as the Great Void, spawning countless nightmarish creatures, dubbed SoulDregs, as well as the attention of a warlike alien race known as the Bashai.

In a single night, Lily lost everything, and was forced to helplessly watch her brother being savagely devoured by a monster. Mentally overwhelmed by the horrific image of what she witnessed, and the inconceivable idea that everything she had was gone, she snapped. As the Void's unknown energies consumed the area, the ruins of her brother's room were filled with maniacal laughter, and they became the birthplace of one of the most vicious enemies mankind has ever known. Lily gave in to Desire all too easily, and she became the DesireWorker of Madness, granting her superhuman physical attributes, as well as the ability to materialize a scythe out of thin air from Desire.

Since that moment, like air for the lungs and rest for the weary eyes, bloodshed and the prospect of death became necessary for Lily's happiness. She joyously slaughtered thousands of creatures, no matter their alignment, in a relentless pursuit of one foe who would be powerful enough to kill her. So intoxicated she came to be by this ambition, that no wound, however grievous, would faze her anticipation for that which could deal a final blow to her. Eventually, a man named Tenebris faced Lily, and proved capable of reigning victorious against her. However, much to the mad girl's dismay, he spared her life and took her as a prisoner and DesireWorker in rehabilitation of the refugee site known as Grasscover Camp.

After many failed attempts by numerous people at restoring Lily's humanity, the two fought once again, with the initial promise that this battle would be her last. However, before the moment of execution, Tenebris understood at long last that it was not carnage that she craved, but her own demise. Taking advantage of this mindset, and in a final attempt to convince the girl to hang onto her life even just a little longer, he struck a deal - if Lily can aid him and the other warriors in the camp in their efforts to defend Grasscover Camp and push back the horrors of the Void threatening it, he would use his great power to kill her. Reluctantly, she accepted, and for years, her time would be spent either in a holding cell or on the battlefield in defense of mankind. In the end, the man who promised her death disappeared, in which she saw enough reason to leave the camp to continue her pursuit of strong enemies, until eventually, she joined the villainess Haru Estia and her followers in her quest to destroy humanity.

Fifteen years since the tragedy, Lily fought a golden woman, going by the name Lakasha, and was easily bested in combat by her seemingly divine power. She was then thrown outside of the area conquered by the Great Void, in a separate timeline, inducing permanent amnesia of all the events that took place up until the present. When she first opened her eyes, she saw a world in danger, and her new greed became the salvation of its people. This former menace to society soon became lauded as a hero, winning countless battles against foes who would've otherwise destroyed mankind.

To this day, Lily remains humanity's last true hope against the many threats it faces.

This mod features:
-four skins: SoulWorker, Advancement, DesireWorker and SoulJustice
-five basic offensive powers
-two boosts
-one Xtreme
-visual and sound effects for powers, including new models
-a voice file
-HUDs
-three loading screens

VERY IMPORTANT: If you have Outsider's Quake mod, then before you install this mod, make sure to backup 11601.igb inside ui/models/mannequin and 11601.igb, 11602.igb and 11603.igb inside textures/loading. They are, respectively, the model for Quake that you see when you're in the character selection screen and he's not on the team, and her loading screens. Lily's mannequin and loading screens overwrite hers. Also, make sure that Quake is not on your roster when you start a new game. Not taking these measures can result in glitches.

All in all, thank you for showing interest in this mod. I am very excited to be sharing it with you all, and if you're impressed by my work so far, then you can definitely expect more content from me down the line.

Until next time, have a good one. Corvette, taking off.

[corvetterules]

I've put together a hotfix of minor issues for the Lily Bloomerchen mod. The link can be found at http://www.mediafire.com/file/4s05h8bycj54iyk/Lily+Bloomerchen+V1.0.5.rar/file. I'd recommend everyone to download this update, because it also adds an effect that I neglected to include in the first archive, but you should especially download this if you downloaded V1.0 and experienced issues resembling texture corruption.

This also features a hotfix to her talents file, which fixes an issue causing the Xtreme power to be available from level 1.

For those of you who already have V1.0, you only need to overwrite all of Lily's effects files inside effects/char/lily_bloomerchen, her talents file, and drag and drop the .igb files inside textures and textures/nextgen to the respective folders inside the game files.

Hopefully this should fix what I believe would be broken otherwise. I would once again like to thank you for your interest in my work, and I sincerely hope you enjoy playing as Lily! Corvette, taking off.

My showcase video for the Lily Bloomerchen mod is up: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2YK3onTRopo&feature=youtu.be

[corvetterules]

I have put together a new update for my Haru Estia mod. This update features:

-a new skin, called SoulJustice, as the fourth skin
-a new HUD for the fourth skin
-major fixes to an issue which caused a sword to appear in Haru's hand at seemingly random times

The link to the archive is here: http://www.mediafire.com/file/twunfz6husve0xp/Haru+Estia+V1.2.rar/file

For those of you who have already installed my Haru Estia mod (presumably V1.1 - if not, I'd recommend just overwriting everything to be safe), the only files of interest are the 0509 files inside packages/generated/characters, the 0509.igb file inside actors, the talents file, the powerstyles file and the herostat entry (you will have to replace the old Haru Estia herostat entry with the new one, inside of your herostat.cfg/herostat.engb file).

I wouldn't consider this update to be big, but I would still say that a lot of people will be happy with the fixes at least. I have the creator's bias, so to speak, and even I found it annoying to encounter that sword issue over and over again during gameplay. That, and those who enjoy magical girl shows will love the new skin.

Thank you once again for your interest in my work, and I hope you have a joyous time with it! Until next time, have a good one. Corvette, taking off.
