How difficult would it be to mod a model?

[Daredevil 2003]

Just curious, seen a lot of people asking for a mod that replaces the protagonist with fem protagonist. A lot would just be fine with the modern fan made SFM model. How hard would it be to just swap the models?

I've seen some slight costume eddits already but those are rather easy compared to making a completely new model. So, it will probably take quite some time
also what do you mean with SFM model?

Not sure how it works, not an expert. But from what I can tell some people are saying it could be easier than making a new one to just put the female protagonist in the game if they ported the the model someone made in Source Filmmaker and replace it with the protagonist model of this game. So I guess porting the model from Source Filmmaker into Persona 3, like how a lot of models from mods that replace characters completely are often models pulled from different games

Oh I see, I think I know what model you mean. First of all you probably are confusing something here, her model wasn't made in SFM. It is actually a heavily modified Yukari takeba model, that was ported from the Persona 3 dancing game. And that game was made in Unity and not SFM.
Now the problem is that P3R wasn't made with Unity but with Unreal Engine 4. Which means that the Femc looks completly different from all the P3R models. You could probably port the model from Unity to Unreal Engine, but it will look extremly out of place. Imagine the P3 and P4 models in P5 that's what we are talking about. So sorry buddy, guess you will have to wait until some dude makes a new model or heavily modifies the P3R Yukari model
Not to mention we will probably have to rework all of the MCs animations to match her, oh and we will also have to draw a many portraits for her

Ah, thanks for explaining that. Yeah, this sounds way out of my area. Thanks for your help though

never doubt the fanbase... if someone wants it badly enough... it will happen. And that is a beautiful thing.

Yeah I am sure there is a possibility of modding in the FeMC because I think someone modded in the FeMC into Persona 3 FES. Also Some one made a Female Joker for Persona 5 Royal.

That's easy, the issue is that model is similar in polygons and stuff so not much editing has to be done besides swapping models rather than full on making a mod.

Yeah true. I read some where on this message board that the FeMC that was modded into FES was a heavily modded Yukari model.
