Download: www.mediafire.com/download/o9rtyheemwvew5a/REREV2--MoiraVAMPSurvivorALLEPISODES.zipNow with CYBORG HANDS! www.mediafire.com/download/8c9hk46h4lcwfo7/REREV2--MoiraCyberOvrSurv.zip _____With permission from Olivia the modder, I'm free to release this-here mod! This swaps out Moira's rag-tag apocalyptic "surivor" outfit... Ah, screw it. It swaps out all of her in that version for a whole vampire-looking Moira. The girl still needs to eat meat and stuff. Herbs still work, like how they still work on Wesker. No special moves, but Moira's still got her attitude. ______How I did it was... I took Olivia's Sherry Birkin outfit for what's-her-name. Retexture, added some straps (normal mapping and stuff), and model-swapped it over to Moira's stuff. To quote Commander Shephard, "Put more stuff in the thing that more stuff goes in." Is that how the quote goes? I dunno. Must be all the high-fructose corn-syrup in these Laffy Taffies jackin' up my brain. Think it's time for dinner. So long as Moira's not comin' by for blood in the meanwhile, I'm good. _____BEWARE, THOUGH! When the mod FIRST LOADS in Raid mode, first it'll look like Moira's floating head glitched out. But when you START a raid stage, it loads normally from there. It loads normally in The Struggle, though. Just don't go munching on garlic when you try this thing out. Vamp Moira, leading the human resistance against the Forces of Stupidity. Cyborg Hands! (Enlarged to show texture.)

does this work in the main campaign? I'd say atm is a bit buggy overall. I mean once raid missions start it works flawlessly(causes other modded character textures to bug out), but in story mode, for whatever reason the body textures show as if they were badly wrapped, not sure why, since i´ve isntalled all others with no issue...But so far havent been able to make it look right in story..Works, but doesnt look like its suppossed to. Looking forward to updates and fixes, is one of my fav mods, and there arent so many survivor moira reskins(this is the only one i know of so far).

Thanks for the tip, didn't consider that...Also...any links or how to find textures, i´ve already done some mods for other games like skyrim, l4d2, state of decay, and due to wanting specific stuff, had to learn how to do them myself, and everytime, is really confusing at first...So, any good videos or tutorials on how to retexture(other than the link), which of the files they are, and what program or plugin one needs? Might be a little unrelated, but just joined the forums. Again, thanks for the reply, i will try your mod with a clean install and hope it works...Great work

_____Well now, that's work a few truckloads of answers! And since there's no freakin' place to park 'em, guess I'll have to go with summaries. BASICALLY, if you wanna retexture, just UNPACK the appropriate *.arc file, edit the *.dds, and repack! That's it! See ya! _____Hmmph... Guess that might not be enough. Okay! So, first ya gotta UNPACK an *.arc file WITH editable textures, right? Fluffyquack's got the tools! residentevilmodding.boards.net/thread/481/arc-unpacker-repacker-v0-36 Oh, and when ya get the custom *.bat files, just tweak the Revelations 2 file so it looks like THIS: arctool -rev2 -texRE6 -alwayscomp -pc -txt -dds -tex -v 7 %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9 Then, once you have an *.arc file copied into that same directory--the one containing the arctool--you can drag and drop *arc files to decompress and folders to compress again. Just be sure to delete the original unmodded *.arc, though. _____"Well GOSH, Egglesplork!" you say. "How can I edit *.dds textures! And why does your face look like something out of Taylor Swift's latest acid trip?" _____I'm glad you asked, friend! The first question, not the other question. Dudes 'round here have paid for photoshop. Being the cheap bastard I learned to be, I use PAINT.NET with *.dds plugins! Actually, the latest version MIGHT support *.dds plugins right outta the box. But you can check the forums otherwise. Get Paint.net, a FREE open-source (ripoff?) competitor to Photoshop! (Screw that, the real ripoff is paying hundreds of bucks for Shop.) www.getpaint.net/index.htmlforums.getpaint.net/index.php?/forum/7-plugins-publishing-only/____Now, when you EDIT textures in Paint.net, you'll notice how some of 'em are saved in different DXT formats. That's a load of horse-puckey, huh? I know. So when you SAVE textures, MAKE SURE you're saving in the CORRECT DXT format. Here's a chart, but it does NOT apply in all cases: Color Maps (_BM)--SAVE IN DXT1 Shadow-Specular Maps (_MM)--SAVE IN DXT1 Normal-Bumpy Maps (_NM)--SAVE IN DXT5) Hair textures (You'll know 'em when you see 'em)--DXT5 Just to jack you up, some outfits and weapons textures need to be saved in DXT5. You can tell when you decompress the *.arc file ya just saved and find it's been turned to a series of black lines and a bunch of gibberish. _____So that's it! Decompress the *.arc files and fool around with *.dxt files before repacking. Course, *.arc files just aren't textures. They're the whole darned model, some animation info (maybe?), sound info, and gosh knows what else. Hmm, think I'll add this to the tutorial. NOW I'm outta here--gonna level up some skills in Rev2 before a lab-tech lunatic takes over for GTAV.

thanks a lot for the long explanation, and sorry for the late answer. That's gonna help, actually. And yeah, a different mod was causing the issue, "younger claire", which is basically the classic Claire costume replacing the rodeo costume (that dreadful thing). She works fine with most of the rest of mods. When i use sherry instead of Claire, Moira and Sherry share Sherry's clothes , but looks funny and i like it somehow.

____News flash...! Ah, some of y'all humans are too young to know that phrase anyway. Anyway! I found out that MOST ANY MODEL-SWAP CLASSIC MOD will interfere with Moira's third outfit! If you just put Moira on default costume, the Claire mods should be fine. Moira default-costume retextures seem to work fine, though. Weird how that works. Think I'll go get some cheddar popcorn from the kitchen now. ("No eating in the lab!") Hey, who asked you!
