Penumbra Import from Screen #9

I'm fairly certain development for this plugin has ceased for the time being, but I was messing with it the other evening and I found a potential avenue for exporting character data to a penumbra mod.

Loading a snap and then exiting gpose still keeps the generated collection applied, allowing you to use the modded files/character for gameplay, on top of this, you're able to use the 'import from screen' feature in Penumbra's advanced editing to potentially scrape the data from the snap into an actual mod file. It isn't fully supported as most of the worthwhile 'import from screen' functions show up as 'unavailable' and I was wondering if there was something that could be done about it?

It'd be really valueable to be able to scrape snap data into a single mod file - both to act as an improved MCDF style modpack, and for playing as other characters in a way that is compatible with mare synchronos.

You're able to play as a snap character but I'm unsure if it functions with mare (I haven't tested it myself yet) ffxiv_dx11_2023-08-24_02-06-44

Either way, sorry for necroposting this plugin kjfshkjf, I think it's a really cool one with some huge potential!

Yeah, I'm on hiatus from playing XIV (no content lol) so I stopped working on it. That said, digesting a snapshot into a PMP (penumbra modpack) would probably be the most reasonable way to accomplish what you're looking for. I'll look into it if I end up re-subbing in the next few months.

Well I hope you do because being able quickly gpose people without mcdfs is so much better., hope you end up resubbing and making this better I do wish to make a ttmp/tmb of like one or two mods. Great plogon🐴

alright i've been drug out of XIV retirement, enjoy exporting to PMP. Should be able to load those in Penumbra and do whatever you like. Strongly recommend putting them in their own collection if you do, the outputted PMP file is MESSY (it has metric shit-tons of meta manipulations that you need to make the mods work)
