None of these are weight painted/rigged yet. Hopefully it won't take long. I am also planning on making original clothing optional.

Mostly done with Vypers (re)model, hopefully when I get around to getting her animated the patch isn't out and it works at least decently well. #deadlock #nsfw

New version of Celeste is up, adding back in tattoos!

sts_developer @sts-developer.bsky.social · 10/02/2026

My "Blessed" Celeste mod is out now on Gamebanana! For now she is without tattoos, as I still have some stuff to fix with those textures. gamebanana.com/mods/652136

So I'm working on Celeste right now, as I ran into a bit of an issue where there were seams all over that looked like they were based on where UV seams were. I spent upwards of 5 hours doing all sorts of things in ModelDoc, Blender and wherever else. It was some animations EXISTING in ModelDoc. What

Had a though about female Venator... had to make a rough proof of concept. To clarify this is JUST A CONCEPT AND NOT EVEN CLOSE TO FINAL. I'm also not sure if want to continue since I don't know what I'd replace the voice lines with and such.

I've figured out (and fixed) the issues with the textures in my Silver mod. It was a combination of missing some consistency between the base and my custom textures, with some slightly old custom textures and mesh. Hopefully out within a day or two if I have some time.

sts_developer @sts-developer.bsky.social · 03/02/2026

I do have to say, characters with loose fitting clothes are really hard to get looking decent, and previewing changes takes forever. Luckily Celeste is next (for me anyway), and she has been pretty straightforward (She does have a lot of tattoos though, let me know if you have any ideas for tattoos)

sts_developer @sts-developer.bsky.social · 03/02/2026

As Silver is out now, its only fitting that I also release my next mod! I had a couple issues, but I think it turned out pretty good! Get the mod here: gamebanana.com/mods/650502

sts_developer @sts-developer.bsky.social · 31/01/2026

My Graves mod got removed on Gamebanana. I'm going to respect the decision of the moderators and the general Deadlock community at large and not reupload the mod.

Hello everyone, its been a couple weeks. I've been really busy lately and I'm not sure how much I'll be able to do with the upcoming/current holidays. Sorry for the silence and I'll share some more progress if I have the chance.

sts_developer @sts-developer.bsky.social · 04/12/2025

Vindicta has been textured! Not 100% happy with the texturing but I think it looks decently good.

sts_developer @sts-developer.bsky.social · 03/12/2025

Holliday is now also back! I couldn't reuse her mesh or textures either so they've been made from scratch same as Paige.

1120

sts_developer @sts-developer.bsky.social · 30/11/2025

Paige is back! Unfortunately I couldn't reuse anything from my original model so I had to recreate the mesh and textures. As usual any ideas and feedback are welcome!

4190

sts_developer @sts-developer.bsky.social · 28/11/2025

I've also been playing around with some ideas on various things I could add to each character and how I would go about adding those.

sts_developer @sts-developer.bsky.social · 28/11/2025

Luckily for me I could re-use the textures from Midnight Mina, so all I had to do was re-create the body! I also took some extra time to work a bit on improving some parts of her textures while I was at it. #Deadlock

sts_developer @sts-developer.bsky.social · 27/11/2025

I tried McGinnis next, but I couldn't get it quite right, so I chose to do Yamato next! Her original model has gray skin (I assume its skin?) but i chose to use her head/face as a color reference instead. As always if you have any ideas on how to improve her base further let me know! #Deadlock

sts_developer @sts-developer.bsky.social · 25/11/2025

Lady Geist is next up, this time previewed with Cycles so she looks a bit better than my other previews. If you are paying attention you might notice I've skipped Holliday and Ivy for reasons... but don't worry, they will be here soon enough! #Deadlock

sts_developer @sts-developer.bsky.social · 24/11/2025

Next up is Haze, I'm not quite sure what to do with her since there is nothing describe her appearance or what she even is. This is currently the WIP that I have. Let me know what you think she would look like!

sts_developer @sts-developer.bsky.social · 24/11/2025

Working on base models for the whole female deadlock cast, staring alphabetically with Calico (not final). My plan is to work on all the models at once for consistency and efficiency (and my workflow has improved a lot since I started so I wanted to redo my existing models while reusing what I can).

sts_developer @sts-developer.bsky.social · 06/10/2025

Trying some cloth sim stuff to be able to add new clothing to characters.

sts_developer @sts-developer.bsky.social · 05/10/2025

In between all the Mina fixes and programming I've done some prep for some other characters you might recognize. No texturing or rigging yet, still prioritizing optimizing compilation, finalizing Mina, and then reworking some older models.

sts_developer @sts-developer.bsky.social · 05/10/2025

I think I've figured out a way to be able to change bodygroups of an already compiled file! If I can make this work the time to compile new versions of a mod would be practically 0. In theory you could also change the bodygroups yourself in something like a mod manager.

sts_developer @sts-developer.bsky.social · 03/10/2025

I've updated my Mina mod to work with the new update! It does however offset her aiming animation, so I'll fix that in an upcoming update along with some skirt physics and shading issues.

160

sts_developer @sts-developer.bsky.social · 03/10/2025

With the new version, I'm removing the collar (and moving it to the tops) so that I only have to compile half as many things. Another thing I'm doing is moving out the animation files into the textures .vpk to reduce duplication and reduce the file size. Half of the .vpk compressed are now only 6MB!

sts_developer @sts-developer.bsky.social · 03/10/2025

Thank god for a deadlock patch, but did it have to break a mod I released 6 hours before. Already working on a fix, also going to use this to fix some other stuff.

sts_developer @sts-developer.bsky.social · 02/10/2025

Just released "Midnight" Mina! This mod includes a custom model for Mina that includes removeable clothing, cloth physics, jiggle physics and a nude body. gamebanana.com/mods/624266

Mina is done! Should be uploaded within a day. There's a couple minor issues I've noticed (hero select has two faces and some physics are a bit iffy) but I think I can bandaid fix the hero select fairly easily. Ended up being 246 MB for everything.

sts_developer @sts-developer.bsky.social · 30/09/2025

After running my program for 3 hours (I manually stopped it), it only compiled 300 variations... totalling 4.7GB (~450MB when compressed). There is no way I can do all of this lmao.

sts_developer @sts-developer.bsky.social · 30/09/2025

Just did the math, my Mina mod has ~1500 combinations (There's only 10 options, they add up quick!). I'm writing a tool that'll help me automate this process but I might have to cut down on some less impactful options.

030

sts_developer @sts-developer.bsky.social · 27/09/2025

Once Mina is done I'll move over onto updating my previous models, theres a lot I want to make!

sts_developer @sts-developer.bsky.social · 27/09/2025

Still working on Mina, I've learned how to do proxy cloth meshes (so her skirt now moves like an actual skirt ;) ) and have moved onto cloth chains for jiggly bits. CSDK12 is awesome and lets me preview a lot more stuff in-editor.

sts_developer @sts-developer.bsky.social · 24/09/2025

Currently moving over my models to newer modding tools. It shouldn't take long, but it will eat into the time I have. Newer tools are very cool though, with proper lighting, material editing and more now included directly.

sts_developer @sts-developer.bsky.social · 16/09/2025

Nude Mina has been textured! I've also split up the rest of her model for use later.
