Well, the uniforms aren't exactly ready. Or to be more accurate, they're not perfect.

See, BodyShop - on this particular mesh - doesn't let you seen in between the pants legs. Zack, being the shameless good sport he is, does:

Sigh. The leg mapping on this mesh is weird, anyway. Most pants are mapped with the front half on the right of the image, and the back on the left. Not these. The shirt is still the same, but the left leg is on the right side. The whole thing. I don't even know how SilverWind did that. It's a pain in the ass, nonetheless, because I obviously didn't extend the pants texture far enough to what would be the outsides of the image, so the inseams would meet. And so, the uniforms are a little, er, breezier than intended.

I can try to fix this a little later on, rename them the same as the files I have ready, and the fixed ones will just overwrite the old ones, if anyone wants to use these, as-is. Download here in two versions: for those with Seasons, and for those without. The with-Seasons armored uniforms are outer-wear enabled, 'cause hell, Zack was walking around a mountain in nothing but. The without-Seasons uniforms had outerwear removed with the Wardrobe Wrangler, so just let me know if you try them and something's amiss. They're the same six I posted BodyShop pics of in the last entry; I didn't take any more pictures deliberately because I was pissed about the leg issue, so sorry about that.

In other BodyShop pissivity... There used to be a pair of dresses for Lucrecia on MTS2. The first was her white afterlife dress, which used a huge, blocky, and frankly old mesh (great for its time, but ya know.) The second was her purple top and skirt from her labwear, using a mesh I couldn't find anymore on its parent website. I took the recolor files, anyway, thinking I'd just adapt them to meshes I already had, and indeed, I ended up using Gelydh's alpha-editable mermaid dress. I couldn't see Lucrecia's shoes in any of the photos I found at the time, so it didn't bother me that Gelydh's dress has some nice pseudo-Victorian boots. I spent far more time on those two dresses than I ever though possible:



Yeah, I just hunted down a couple of the actual cutscenes from Dirge of Cerberus, and found out her clothes don't really look like this. GRRR. The purple corset-like thing and white fabric textures are unchanged from Sugarpuffsam's original clothes I downloaded off of MTS2 (those particular clothes had now been lost to MTS2's recent crash.) I just added & adjusted them over Gelydh's mesh. The white lab coat/trenchcoat is by General_Zoi on MTS2, and the necklace is by NewSea. If anyone wants these dresses anyway, you can get them here.

Will you ever try to finish Lucrecia's afterlife dress and her lab outfit? There hasn't been a good one in all the times I've searched. There are one or two...but they're not accurate or the textures are awful. I hate leaving Sephy's mother out simply because she doesn't have her outfits. :( I hope to see your rough take finalized. Until then, I shall keep watching, hoping, waiting. :) I love all your FF works--they're amazing and accurate! Keep it up! ^-^
