Latest file for v1.19.8:
SeraphFaces1.4.0.zip 1-click install


This mod replaces the 3D model faces for the Seraphs with a texture instead.

 

The faces in the pictures may be a bit different than those in-game as I changed them due to a weird texturing bug with transparent textures in 1.19.

Should be compatible now with other player customization addons.

 

For a look more in line of pre-1.13 I'd suggest https://mods.vintagestory.at/classicseraphface by Koza!

 

If the texturing bug ever gets fixed I may try making some nicer faces in the future, dunno.

Feel free to use this for your own stuff. I didn't really do much aside from patching the player model file.

Devaraja So that's what that was. I was going crazy trying to find out what was causing the animations to get stuck on the anvil (and a few other things) and making smithing impossible. It wasn't just clicking a few times, it would rapidly fire off something like five to ten hits on a single swing of the hammer. Imagine my shock when after going through almost every single mod in my folder (which is quite a lot) it wasn't something like the Animation Manager or a mod that changed how you interacted with world objects or the smithing mods, but the face texture replacement! What in the world was causing such a peculiar bug to happen?

Anyways, updating to the 1.4.0 version of the mod fixed the issue.

Thauidite Thank you. I could try reaching out to the author behind Femininity and see if they can look at a patch if that's of any help?

💬 ThauiditeAuthor, Aug 14th at 2:14 AM

I'm going to assume that it's probably a compatibility error with Femininity, which I'm not quite sure how to fix considering I changed the mod to not modify the entire player json.

 

I could probably upload a patch if I get the time that allows the usage of them together as a seperate mod but I'm not quite sure I can fix the base one without some scripting knowledge.

💬 Bunker, Jul 24th at 2:22 AM

I've run into a crash with this mod enabled. Took me a hot minute to narrow it down but here's the crash log.

A quick heads up for everyone still using this: this mod causes a triple+ click issue in 1.19.7 when using a hammer and forging. It can completely destroy whatever you're making if you're splitting it and makes smithing an impossible chore. I've made a quickfix here, it doesn't fix the transparent faces issue but it stops the forging issue. Pop open the mod folder and go into assets>game>entities>humanoid and replace all text inside the player.json with the text in the pastebin.

Hoping this eventually gets fixed officially!

💬 Bunker, Mar 1st at 11:49 PM

Hi! I was wondering if there's any interest in adding compatibility with Femininity while you're fixing up the transparent pixel issue?

Edit: More info about the transparent pixel issue! It appears to be the shaded pixels around the mouth/eyes. You can blatantly see the neck of the character through those pixels. The way that the flattened face textures have been handled also impacts on how Femininity works as it changes how the texture's laid out on the default model.

💬 Bunker, Feb 18th at 11:49 PM

Hi! Running into the same transparent pixels issue as Spoono. Not gamebreaking but it does appear to be the shading pixels if that makes sense?

💬 spoono, Jan 29th at 6:38 PM

Hi, I love this mod but I have a small issue with it - it seems that the face is... transparent? as in, you can see through some of its pixels... I don't know what causes this, as this is the only mod I have

💬 BonelessBoi420, Sep 28th 2023 at 11:12 AM

ITS ME I WANT THIS!!!! 💙 

 

💬 RayTC, Jul 9th 2023 at 8:00 PM

funny, i was working on exactly the same kind of mod (replacing the faces with 2d textures) but my implementation was a bit cruder.

💬 Rangelost, Jul 7th 2023 at 10:28 PM

Thauidite
For the most part, the code uses a function called Lang.Get(key) which fetches a string from the language file matching the passed key. For example, Lang.Get("ore-flint") returns "Flint" in English (from en.json), but "Silex" in French (from fr.json), depending on the game's selected language.

I'm not sure why replacing the texture of the eyes causes the menu element to become a dropdown list (I do not believe that the character creation menu is currently available in the API, so I can't check the code), but that's why the strings weren't already defined.

💬 ThauiditeAuthor, Jul 7th 2023 at 1:41 PM

Alright, thanks! I thought it would be way more complex than a language file lol

Do language files just replace instances of certain strings?

💬 Rangelost, Jul 7th 2023 at 6:14 AM

To fix the eye colour names, you'll have to create a /assets/game/lang/ folder and create language files there (e.g. en.json). Then, in each language file, you'll have to re-insert the "color-" values from the respective .../Vintagestory/assets/game/lang/ files, and with keys like "skinpart-eyecolor-" instead. For example:

{
    "skinpart-eyecolor-malachite": "Malachite"
}

NIIICE COLORED PIXEL EYES YIPPY

💬 ThauiditeAuthor, Jul 6th 2023 at 11:52 PM

Eye colors have been added, but had to tweak some of the faces a little bit though.

 

If anybody knows what I should look into to fix the technical names I'd like to know!

💬 Torisk_Ablinsky, Jul 6th 2023 at 6:47 PM

once you guys add coloured eye support, i'll love this way more than i already do (a lot) bc these faces are adorable!

💬 badab00p, Jul 6th 2023 at 5:39 PM

Woaah! yeah, i def want those with eye color support. Smiley face looks soooo cute! *follows*

💬 A_Tree, Jul 6th 2023 at 2:06 PM

Thanks Thauidite! I was hoping something like this would get made, I like pixel faces more, there seems to be more personality compared to the 3D Models. :D
This will be an essential mod for me from now on!

💬 Cuiwi, Jul 6th 2023 at 5:43 AM

I'm personally content with the default faces, but I super appreciate this mod existing nonetheless: more options is always a good thing!

💬 OmegaHaxors, Jul 6th 2023 at 5:05 AM

Soumagnei Think of the big picture. You can make yourself look like Steve Minecraft.

💬 LadyBlakeHammer, Jul 6th 2023 at 4:03 AM

This is terrifying, in the right way.

💬 Winters99, Jul 5th 2023 at 11:36 PM

I definitely appreciate this. No offense to the devs but I don't really like the default face.

💬 Ruyeex, Jul 5th 2023 at 8:00 PM

I find it funny to me. :D

💬 Soumagnei, Jul 5th 2023 at 4:43 PM

Why would I or anyone want... this?
