Clothing fit on female-presenting V

[Dake]

It's one thing when my V is wearing the sports bra or something constricting, but why do all the tops take her from a C cup to an A cup? You can see her chest "spring" back to full size when swapping tops out, but then immediately reduces? There are plenty of character models in the game that are bustier than even the largest options for V, and their clothing fits well.

Anyway - everyone else is griping about stuff so I figured I needed to find something! :D

With your argument, why have customization at all instead of just premade characters?

It's literally at the beginning of the last paragraph of the post you quoted. The rest of it answers why it isn't there for all clothes.

Edit: or in short "because it's popular"

Messaggio originale di (っ◔◡◔)っ ♥ Rusty ♥:

Because People want the customization options, but doing it for all the clothes is a hell of a lot of work. You don't have unlimited resources, but have to prioritize. Fitting all those clothes across different bust sizes, making sure there is no super obvious clipping etc...all that takes away a modeler from doing work on other areas that might be more important for a sizeable amount of time.
And now ask yourself: How many people do actually notice that, and how many people are actually bothered by it.
I can tell you, it isn't something that has come up a whole lot in the last year to my awareness.

Fair point, and I agree. Just seems like it's something that has existed in other games without major issue and without seeming to cause other aspects to suffer.

Can you give me some examples?

The specific one off the top of my head is the corset top that Denny wears is available in one of the clothing shops. When she wears it, her décolletage is prominent but when V wears it, it reverts to the A cups.

There are also various tank and halter tops that do the same thing when you see the exact style on an NPC, but when you buy/craft it and put it on, it reduces the bust size.

As far as other games that do adjust clothing or armor to the customized PC - Skyrim and Fallout both do it. That being said, they both offer third-person perspectives and since CP is not supposed/designed to be played 3P (except when riding a motorcycle I guess), it likely was an easy cut to make.

That leads into the next thing you mention...

Messaggio originale di Dake:

It'd be one thing if all NPCs also did this and they were just "copy and pasting" the model across the board. But they did take the time to have different body types in the game and have those types affect the way clothing fits (including the same style clothing V has access to), they just didn't seem to carry it over to the MPC.

But I don't think you'll see the same outfit on an obese NPC as you will on a fit NPC. I get the impression all NPC outfits were designed specifically to fit the body type of the NPCs they'd be featured on, and that the game doesn't have any dynamic morphing of clothing to accommodate a varitey of body types.

I think you're mostly right. They may have carried over some clothing styles (including halter tops and cutoff shorts on obese frames), but just adapted the clothes to that specific NPC body type and it's "all one piece" for lack of a better term. The clothes themselves don't change, they just painted them over the NPC's form (otherwise I'm sure we'd see NPC glitches where the clothes are floating or too small).

Even though it's a minor issue, I do believe it is a minor issue which should be fixed. One of the major selling points of the game was character customization options, and if we're getting a transmog system, that'd be a good time to implement a fix for varied body type clothing.

That said though I also think we should get more body types in general, there are clearly different body types in game. I should be able to be jacked like a member of The Animals, or as portly as Dexter DeShawn.

I get the impression in those cases the clothing is part of the model and isn't dynamically adjusting to the shape of the figure. Having said that, if they already modelled the clothing to fit more than one body type, they might as well have the game choose whichever one is more appropriate to your V's physique. Of course, that would mean that some clothing would reflect bust size while others wouldn't so maybe they nixed that idea for the sake of consistency.

Then that's going to take a while to get all the clothing options to fit with the different sizes of your character, so it at least works on your character

Also any scenes with V in them where you're rendered in third person would be different. The way V fits on a motorcycle, or inside a car, would need to be made so that there is no clipping in any instance

And that would take a long time.
