Mods are additions made by people not employed by the program. if they do good work, should they not receive a bit for their effort? you point out that you pay for the game...but the mods are mods -because- they are not part of it.
Mind you, money changing hands -will- require a level of quality not too many is likely to manage. at least judging by what i've seen on mod-lists for other games.
And of course prices need to befit the product. so, low single-digts sums only. aside from truly astonishing works of, ahem, 'art'.

so can we get a confirmation that we will see this update go live before xmas? or is it more likely to hit new years eve?

@Fly88xx & MasterAaran

We will not charge extra for the modding option. You simply buy XStoryPlayer and that will allow you to do the modding with that version.
No micro payments to unlock extra features or anything.

My suggestion that modders could sell their content through our channels was meant for DLC (like MasterAaran already mentioned).
It will make it more interesting for people to model new girls (which can be quite a lot of work), if they know they can earn some money for their hard work.

We will not try to make money on mods or anything, it is all up to the designers/modders themselves.

Hope that clarifies it somewhat.

To some degree. Pulling down/up panties, opening zippers and buttons that they can do. But with the undressing of more complex garments you regrettably have to assist them.

See this right here is why I submit odd or absurd requests to XPadmin. Whenever I do so, it results in a spike of forum activity.

Another idea for individual modders to money: start a Patreon account so that people can pledge money to a modder, either on a monthly or per update basis, to support them for making mods for XSP.

Good job then You got us a nice new vid plus an awful cliff hanger -.-

You won't hear me complain. Stripping them is half the fun!

That's good enough.
Opening Latisha's dress or Tiffany's blouse were among the best moments of the game.

Thank you very much for the clarification!

I want to assure you, and everyone, that I wasn't jumping all over you or anything. I meant everything that I said in a very constructive way!

I knew that you weren't going to charge for the ability to mod, I just don't like the idea of having to pay to get access to a mod. It's my personal preference. I do support DLC's though, and I would probably see my way through to purchasing them if they were not over-priced. Seeing as the game itself is currently about $10, a DLC would be appropriately priced at $1, $2 or maybe $5 for a very large one.

This is getting off track though. I don't mind if modders want to charge for their mods, though as I mentioned, I don't agree with it. Which Is why I suggest a donation basis instead.

Or, as Pickled Cow said:


Have them start a Patreon. In this case, again, here is what I would ideally like to see. A modder sets up a Patreon, works on a mod...people pledge, etc. The mod is released, at first only to the pledgers. After about a month or so, the mod is then released to the public. Thoughts? Again, it would be up to the mod developer themselves.

On to other topics...

I'm no modeler. I want to look into doing character modeling. I'm fairly confident in my skills enough to be able to model simple objects (Extra dildo's, etc, etc, etc), but a character model will be far beyond me for a long time. I want to have people releasing free stuff to give those like me, who would be better able to script/write/tweak/integrate, a chance to work.

Personally I'm hoping that some of the epic and awesome models that are worked on and distributed over at DigitalEro will be able to be ported over to the game, at least as a modder's resource. For instance, give me a Resident Evil 6 Helena model in XSP and I would LOVE to have her as hot MILF next door...etc, etc, etc...But I would need the models, or a guide on how to convert them over for use, etc...

Finally, on the thought of the girls being able to undress, again, I agree with:


The removal of the clothing was some of the absolute most awesome points in the game...I'm SUPER psyched for this!

~~~

And last, I wanted to throw my own request out there again. Is there a list of all the videos that have been created so far as examples, etc? I want to make sure I've seen them all...

I've been modeling girls in Maya and testing in UE4 in the mean time, but I suspect it'll take a lot of trial and error with XSP to learn how to properly prepare them for the physics, because I'm already stepping a lot further than I've ever gone.


Hah, that's great! Still really seems like it should be less flexible, but if you'll forgive the double entendre, I have no idea how hard that is.

It looks good to me, at least for the reason the I asked. I submitted the request for the penis physics video because of my concern for the Oculus Rift users. You see, if someone is who is wearing a VR head set were to look down and see that their penis has be been bent in half like a pool noodle, it could have profound and negative physiological effects on that person.
