Getting the Steam outfits in the patched version?

[TheLivingN64]

I played Demon's Roots patched a year ago and it was peak fiction. I had 18+ skip off because I was really only here for the story and, while I've heard the base steam version sucks, I really enjoy the censored outfits for Ange and Lily. Would anyone know if it's possible to alter things in the files to have those outfits in the patched version?

Yes, that should be possible to do. The folder with images is pretty easy to find, and you should be able to just switch the sprites out. You don't even need to decrypt the files, though you probably want to see what you are replacing.

Alright, did some digging and, within the www > img > tachi folder is all the character portraits, with actor05 being Lily and actor07 being Ange. Their bodies are contained in the face files within the respective location.
Now, with the knowledge of rpg maker I have, what the patch probably does is overwrite the actor05/07_face files with a new image (the patched designs) so that it doesn't mess with anything RPG maker wise. As such, I do not have these images and would need the unpatched version of the game to retrieve them.

Reinstall the game, backup the folder with the images you want to keep, apply the patch and then switch them out.

for anyone still wondering about this, the only 2 files you need to replace are menu_anj.rpgmvp and menu_lil.rpgmvp(need confirm) for Ange and Lily respectively. You can find them in www > img > pictures.

Those images are helpful for menu icons, but replacing dialogue portraits involves the ones I mentioned. Good catch, though.

I found that out shortly after my post, ty for pointing that out. Any idea where the character sprites in the formation menu are?

I haven't worked in MV ever, but I'd assume things are pretty close at least in essence to VX Ace.
It looks like changing the ones you mentioned will adjust it across the board in the menu since I doubt a new window is being called each time.
The face sprites hardly seem to be an issue since they crop off the outfits.
If you're referring to the actor sprites found in the formation menu, for Lily and Ange, it would be
www -> img -> characters
ao2 is Ange's sheet. It also includes the queen of Lace and some additional Polca Sprites
ao7 is Lily's sheet. It's just all Lily.
If I missed the mark on what you were asking, lemme know.
