Blade & Soul - Dayglow (Gon Outfit) Mod

Coming back to a Gon mod this week, I would like to work on the Dayglow outfit which was requested almost one month back, together with the Jin version. I had actually worked on the Jin version prior, but find out that it has a tendency to crash the game, probably due to a bad repacking. Fortunately, the Gon version seems to work fine so I will post it here.

Most of the information regarding this outfit has already been detailed in the Yun Dayglow post so I will not go into those again. But as stated, it is an one-per-account outfit 😥 and since I already gave it to my Yun character, I can only show the Gon version, through the in-game Tailor Shop, in the video.

So without delay, let us take a look at the original Gon outfit which looks exactly the same as the Yun's and Jin's.

Front View - Original Outfit
The color theme and design of the Gon version is same as that of the Yun's..

Right down to the netting layer that covers the torso portion of the outfit.

Rear View - Original Outfit
The rear looks largely the same too but the Gon's physique and pose might have twisted the outfit a little.

Since the requestor did not specify any alterations in the Yun post, I duplicate the exact same mod from the Yun to the Gon.

That includes the removal of the leggings and netting, plus trimming the front cloth, tail cloth, sides and bra.

The final result looks very similar to the Yun mod as shown below.

Front View - Modified Outfit
As seen above, the netting and leggings have been removed.

Front Close-up View - Modified Outfit
The front cloth has been trimmed into a heart shape and bra has been separated from the collar.

The mid portion of the front cloth has also been modified to a netting but it is not very obvious in the image.

Rear View - Modified Outfit

The tail cloth has been trimmed into a heart shape with the mid portion modified to a netting layer, just like in the case of the front cloth.

Now that you have seen the same mod on both Gon and Yun, which race do you think best rock this mod outfit? 😆

Since the Gon Dayglow mod is a direct duplicate of the Yun's mod, I got a little spare time to squeeze in another mod which is the Gon Velvet Rope. The mod is quite simple to transform the pair of stockings into skin layer. The result is shown in the image below and in the video.

Watch the video to see both outfits which I capture using the in-game Tailor Shop. Enjoy!

    1. Unfortunately, I found out that it will cause the game to crash. Not the Dayglow outfit itself but that of Ascension outfit (although no mod was done on this one) because they are in the same package. 😰

    2. But if you want to try it out. Here's the link: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1O4ywvUFJjoMgnDErtlrS7Oyo-Rs2ApPN

      I guess if you know how to swap the Ascension outfit to another outfit, it may not crash... but I am just guessing because I don't know how to swap. 😰

    3. Your Dayglow Yun mod is good and never cause any crash or conflict with the Ascension (Yun). Did you do anything differently (image size, dimension ratio, compression, unpacking/repacking, etc.) to this Gon's version that causes the crash and conflict with Ascension (Gon)? It seems like if the same procedure would not cause such differences. I'm looking forward to the solution to this. Thank you!

    4. Sorry but unless the creator for UPKManager agree to look into this, I can't really do much. I know there is some difference in the DDS texture file for the GonF Ascension because it does not show the dimensions (when mouse-over) after extracted. 😰

      UPKManager is not an official tool for repacking the UPK files and some of it might have been guess work causing some information to be left out.

    1. I do not know how to swap outfit and even if swapped, I do not know whether it will still crash the game. 😰

    2. then please let me try on behalf of you. but I heard there are upk files for 1 outfit. I only know 1 number. Could you tell me how can I find the other numbers of Gon dayglow? Thanks for your time.

    3. I am not sure what number you are referring to but if it is the 3D model, it should be just plus or minus near the texture upk. In this case the 3D model is 00045813 since the texture is in 00045814.
