2.5.2.0

3 months ago

This is a minor "Quality of Life" update, including tons of fixes, improvements and smaller changes that will help you with your daily clothes modding work! :)

New icons & "support" for escrow / locked files

Lightbulb now indicates information for potential improvements to clothes and you are now able to add escrow locked files to your project and build it. Keep in mind this doesn't mean we fully support escrow locked clothes, in general this still requires additional manual work to make them properly load (You need to put the package license some how properly for it to load)

Official support for latest gamebuilds

You can now select mp2023_01 and mp2023_02 gamebuilds on project build for improved warnings and information. Keep in mind that you could previously already build projects for these newer gamebuilds but with less accurate errors & warnings.

New warnings & information

Introducing some new information to increase awareness for bad clothes, including:

new warning for Raced skin type clothes that have bigger than 512x512 textures (not needed / unsupported by game)
new warning for unoptimized / bad sims port textures (unoptimized / huge)
new warning for embedded textures containing illegal characters in name (causing them to not work properly)

📜Full Changelog:

- Added options / "support" for mp2023_01 & mp2023_02 gamebuild selection in build options
- Added some new discovered audio presets
- Added "support" for escrow / locked YDD files, you can add them now to your project and build them but it still needs escrow license file placement manually + doesnt work with adding escrow protected files from different packages as this would require multiple escrow licenses, which we dont know yet how it should work (Feel free to reach out to us if you know more)
- Added support for optimizing a previously unknown TextureFormat, which lead to many YTD/Embedded YDD textures failing to optimize
- Added some fallbacks and checks for blocked license files, causing them to not being read properly
- Added new warning for Raced skin type clothes that have bigger than 512x512 textures (not needed / unsupported by game)
- Added new warning for unoptimized / bad sims port textures (unoptimized / huge)
- Added new warning for embedded textures containing illegal characters in name (causing them to not work properly)
- Added information when previewing clothes that miss diffuse texture, stating that 3D preview doesnt represent ingame look in this case
- Added option to disable missing diffuse texture warning in 3D preview (Menut > Options dropdown)
- Added clothproject data folder relocation dialog on project load when all files failed to find (Should help in cases where clothproject folder got moved around)
- Improved information icon to lightbulb instead of question mark + introduced lock icon for either corrupt or locked files

- Improved general memory usage of Durty Cloth Tool (It should consume less now)
- Improved duplicate content check to consider type & gender information
- Fixed 3D preview crashing in same cases with badly made drawables
- Fixed placeholder dummy textures not causing proper shifting texture variation id. You can now add dummy textures before a real texture variation and it will cause the real one to be shifted to variation id 2 for example
- Fixed some mods installers (FiveMods etc) & graphic mods (Network Redux) causing 3D preview to not load / eat up all your RAM and CPU
- Fixed adding files with capslocked file extensions like .YDD .YTD etc.
- Fixed setting possibly invalid tattoo file names, leading to application crash on build
- Fixed Enable Animation / Only Selected Cloth checkboxes sometimes in invalid state when switching between props & clothes in 3D preview

📑Important Project Migration Note

This update changes the way your cloth project is saved and referenced cloth models and textures are managed internally. Due to this change, on first time loading a older project, it will be automatically migrated to the new project format without any needed input from you. As this could take some while, you will be prompted with a dialog to confirm this.

In this process all your previously added, 'linked', clothes will be copied to a by Cloth Tool managed "data" folder.

Read more "technical information" about the changed project new projects formats in the end of this post.

✨Update highlights

This is the biggest cloth tool update so far, almost one year of work, lots of research and testing went into this. Thanks to every suggestion on this GitHub or my Discord and special thanks to the @Clothes-Experts that decided on helping testing and improving this version.

Lets dive into some of the highlighted features and additions of this new version.

🔎 3D Previewer

Introducing the 3D Preview Feature. This exciting new feature allows you to easily visualize and analyze your cloth models and textures in a whole new dimension. With the Cloth 3D Preview Feature, you can:

Get a full preview of your ped models and see cloth models in motion, allowing you to test whether clothes are correctly rigged.
Apply animations to your ped models and see the clothes in motion for an even more comprehensive analysis.
Benefit from different render modes that help you identify any cloth model issues.
Take advantage of the wireframe option to see the model structure, and the ped skeleton option to see the ped bones.
Switch between different levels of detail (LOD) to preview the models in a range of resolutions.
Explore the Models & Texture data tabs for a more in-depth analysis of your cloth models.

This feature is an essential tool for anyone looking to bring their models and textures to life and is sure to take your 3D modeling to the next level.

Example of male clothes, changing light direction, switching thru different Level of Details & animating ped

Example of female clothes, animating, showing grid, wireframe & only selected cloth

Example of different rendermodes allowing deeper texturing insights

Disclaimer: 3D preview based on CodeWalker Rendering Engine

💇 Tops with working duffel Bags, Hoodie hairs & Masks that cut or remove hairs

This update introduces various new options to make use of even more GTA V cloth related game mechanics. Find out more about all new clothing options below.

Cut hairs for hoodie clothes (tops & undershirts)

Configure whether your hoodie top / undershirt should cut hairs to make hoodies not glitch.

Remove hat in vehicle

Set hats to automatically be removed when the player enters a vehicle and reapplied when he leaves it again. Making it not glitch thru the vehicle roof.

Without 'Remove hat in vehicle' option, hat will possibly glitch thru roofs

'Remove hat in vehicle' option enabled, hat will be unequipped in vehicle

Cut or remove hairs for masks (berds)

Configure masks (berds) to automatically cut or remove hairs completely whenever needed to perfectly fit your masks without glitching hairs.

Fixed addon tops (jbib) vanilla game duffel bags invisible

Previously all vanilla game duffel bags would not work (be invisible) with all your addon tops (jbibs), this is now automatically fixed and will work after regenerating your cloth pack with this new update.

Previously 'unfixed' addon top with duffel bag combined

Now 'fixed' addon top with duffel bag combined

❗ Tons of automatic error analyzing

Introducing a new and improved error handling system, you can now easily identify and fix issues that could potentially break your clothes, before you build.

With this new feature, you'll be able to:

Quickly categorize issues as Errors, Warnings, or Informations.
Identify and fix Errors that could break your clothes, ensuring that your projects are always in tip-top shape.
Take advantage of various Warnings, ranging from missing LOD levels, invalid model files, missing embedded textures, and more, to improve the quality of your cloth models and textures.
Receive Informational hints that provide valuable insights into your cloth projects.

Elevate your cloth projects and stay ahead of the game with our new error handling system.

Example of some information, warnings & errors

🪄 Easy optimizing of cloth textures and embedded model textures

Say goodbye to manual texture optimization and hello to effortless efficiency with this update. The Texture Optimization Feature is here to revolutionize the way you optimize your textures and models with ease.

With a range of easily optimizations and edits to apply, including:

Automatic optimization of the compression format for your textures, ensuring the best quality with the smallest file size, or choose your own compression format to be applied.
Automatic generation of the suggested amount of mipmap levels for your texture, providing the perfect balance between quality and performance.
Seamless adjustments to your textures with the automatic adjustment to the next power of two width and height.
Easy downscaling of your textures to your preferred size, ensuring that your models look great at any resolution.
Effortless compatibility with embedded model textures and cloth texture variations, without the need for any other tools or manual editing.

With the Texture Optimization Feature, you can streamline your workflow and focus on creating the best GTA V cloth pack possible.

Example of easily optimizing compression format, mipmaps, power of two & more

🫳 Drag & Drop

Making it easier than ever to import files. With this new feature, you can:

Effortlessly import files by simply dragging and dropping them into the tool, whether they're from Windows File Explorer, OpenIV, or CodeWalker.
Save time and streamline your workflow by eliminating the need to manually export & import files one-by-one.
Enjoy a more user-friendly and intuitive experience adding files from GTA V file explorers

Example of dragging and dropping files from OpenIV and CodeWalker

🗄️ Various new import & export formats

We're excited to announce a suite of new import and export file formats that make it easier than ever to work with clothes.

With this new update, you can:

Enjoy faster workflows (especially when using Blender) with the addition of CodeWalker XML import and export support for cloth drawables and textures.
Have more flexibility when editing your cloth textures with new DDS and PNG export options.
Quickly add cloth textures straight from a image, from a variety of image formats including PNG, JPG, TGA, and BMP, which will automatically be converted to YTD.

Example of exporting to & importing from different new file formats: CodeWalker XML, PNG, DDS

🗃️ New projects format & file/data handling

All files related to a cloth project will be saved & managed in one single folder, that could easily be shared & does prevent accidentally building files to some unwanted location, deleting hundreds of files in advance (People selected Desktop as output and files got deleted there..).

Durty Cloth Tool will manage all files added to your project on its own, which takes you the hassle to manage all imported files on your own and removes cases where you accidentally deleted a file used in any of your cloth projects, breaking it completely.
Files that are added to the project will now be imported to a "data" subfolder of your output folder defined in the build settings

⚙️ Dynamic config builders

The Dynamic Config Builder options are here to provide you all the configuration files you need to work with framework plugins like xnTattoos, qb-tattooshop, ESX-TattooShop, or any other similar config files.

With this powerful new feature, you can:

Easily provide example configuration entries for various framework plugin configurations, making the setup process a breeze.
Access clothes and tattoos info dumps filled with valuable information for your developers, such as scripting IDs, types, and names.

Example of generating different config files and viewing them in Visual Studio Code

💡 Technical explaination for new project data keeping

In previous versions, as soon as you add any drawable or texture file, a reference to this file has been saved. This reference is the full file path leading to the file you have selected. Basically it is not adding the drawable, its just linking to it. This behaviour is not common for applications that look like managing files, like Durty Cloth Tool does.

This can and does cause issues like

moving the whole clothes project file is nearly to impossible if not properly managed on your own
you will have to take care of managing files properly, because if not done properly you could end up deleting files from your disk that are used in any cloth project
new people can run into issues like; downloading clothes from the internet, then selecting the drawable file in the downloads folder. When file gets overwritten or deleted in the future, it will just break cloth projects

It does bring some pros tho

"Experienced" users that are aware of the possible issues can manage clothes for multiple cloth projects that share the same cloth files (If this is a use case?)
Possible duplicate of same cloth files on the disk can be prevented (saves some disk space)

The change introduced with this version is that adding a drawable or texture file, will basically import (copy) the file into a by the cloth tool managed "data" folder. This will make managing clothes files a no-brainer as people will not have to pay any attention to that anymore. The cloth tool will manage all files in a folder and delete them there if they are unused, while making sure to not delete it instantly (so you could still delete clothes from your project for testing, exit the tool and load the project again and they would be there again.).

People could still setup & manage "raw/source" folders if wanted to keep the original files somewhere, to add from that. Imported / managed files by Durty Cloth Tool will receive cryptic hash names like 936DA01F-9ABD-4D9D-80C7-02AF85C822A8.ydd as it is not meant to manually delete, edit or replace files in the data folder.

Update highlights

This update contains a lot of fixes that improve the overall experience with the tool and should resolve many of the reported issues I received. Besides many small additions, this update also contains some big new additions that I will highlight below.

Crash fixes, fixes and more fixes

Thanks to all reports the past weeks, many of the issues that people experienced got fixed with this update. Including many things that possibly caused game crashes. Please keep in mind I am not able to fix the crashes and issues caused by loading too many .YMT files in the latest game DLC / update. This limit has to be increased either bei R Games themselves on the next updates or by the multiplayer platform of your choice.

Anyway I have added an option that disables the generation of extra .YMTs that are needed to make high heels, cutting hairs and other stuff possible. Using this can help you shrink down the amount of .YMT files generated, but will make the listed features not work anymore.

See this wiki article for more information regarding the game *.YMT limit

Addon Tattoos

This update introduces the first version of being able to easily manage your addon tattoos with the tool. By pressing Add in the tool, you will receive a list of options which now include "Add tattoo". Tattoos can be created from whatever image file you prefer; *.png, *.jpg, *.dds, *.tga, *.bmp or even .ytd files from already existing tattoos. The tool will automatically optimize your tattoo images for the game and create all needed files that are needed. In the game the item Name will represent the tattoo hash / name and the collection name is represented by the name you have gave the collection in the build window.

Item warnings

From now on you will see possible warnings for your cloth items in form of an exclamation mark directly in front of the related item. This helps finding cause of issues ahead of time faster and more reliable.

Build progress bar & cancel builds

To improve the cloth building experience I have added a build progress indicator, which will give you detailed information about the current state of build and the possibility to cancel the build at any time. Additionally the application remains responsive at any time.

Cloth physics & Audio presets

You can now add related *.YLD files for your clothes, which basically describe physics movement for your clothes. Additionally I have added the possibility to the define an audio preset for your clothes. You will be able to select from all the currently existing audio presets for your drawable type of choice. This will for example change the sound of your shoes when you are walking to proper high heel sounds and similar.

Full Changelog:

- Fixed issues with *.ymt files compression (That could lead to game crashes in some cases)
- Fixed issues with format of creaturemetadata.ymt file (That could lead to game crashes in some cases)
- Fixed drawable options window buttons sometimes not visible
- Fixed an edge case with dummy drawables that could cause clothes projects to not work anymore

Hey there, its been some time since the last release of the cloth tool.

This is the first release of the next generation premium tool "Durty Cloth Tool", which is the best available tool to easily create & manage your GTA 5 addon cloth packs (for singleplayer, FiveM & alt:V) without any knowledge in GTA 5 modding needed. It has been rewritten completely from scratch with minimal design changes and a lot of new features.
