Mod Test 04: Custom Girl (final) — Description
So this is my definitive version of "Custom Girl".
What I did was to try to add some new optional items to choose from without having to load new models. This model has two hair styles, and I like the short hair. I have to admit that the hair is not entirely my idea, I saw it in another custom model, but I didn't clone it ^^U I added more optional items but I'm not going to tell you what .

At the end, it wasn't as easy as I think. When I tried it, the hair didn't move when I bend it from spine. What was happening? When I started to edit the .mesh.ascii, I learned how info is stored there, so I'm almost able to use notepad++ to fix errors. And this model was who show me how meshes and bones are linked.
First, I had a simple error, easy to repair: the hair root bone weren't linked to upper neck bone, so I look for the number of it (from the eyes bone, for example) and copy it in the hair root bone parent value.
But in later versions I had to open a previous version who really works, and copy the entire hair section in the new one, because meshes had lost their weights! The bones values (they are three for every face, I don't know what second and third parameter means, yet) were 0 for all the faces of the mesh, so repairing it manually was imposible (about 1000 lines), and I'm not skilled enough with Blender. So I had to use this copy/paste method. It's not fine, but it worked well

So, will I share this model? Sorry, but no. This is my first OC, maybe my first finished mod, if we don't count "video girl". It took me a lot of work, as I said, and it's not free from errors (yet!). Maybe there are one or two people who I will share it if they ask me and use it for personal use only, but I don't really know ^^U.

The only thing left is to give her a name... or two, I'm not sure if I made a girl or twins ^^U
I'm really bad giving names, so I accept suggestions.
