Costume Restoration Mod

Several years late to the Vesperia party, and genuinely surprised no one had done this yet. This mod restores seven costumes that ended up unused in the final product, by linking them to existing titles...without overwriting other costumes!

The costumes are attached to the following titles:
  • Treasure Hunter (Yuri's "Certified Soldier" alt)
  • Legendary Swordsman (Yuri's "True Knight" alt)
  • Berserker (Yuri's "Improvisionist" alt)
  • Noble Princess (Estelle's "Mysterious Maiden")
  • Master Mage (Rita's "Researcher for Life")
  • Genius Mage (Rita's "Researcher for Life" alt)
  • Emperor of the Night (Flynn's towel)

How to Install
  • 1) Click this link[drive.google.com] and download "menu.svo" and "string_dic_ENG.so"
  • 2) Navigate to your games local files.
    • Navigate to Tales of Vesperia in your library
    • Right click on the name
    • Click "Properties"
    • In the window that pops up, click "Local Files"
    • Click "Browse"
  • 3) Navigate into the "Data64" Folder
  • 4) Replace "menu.svo" in the folder with the "menu.svo" you just downloaded. (NOTE: It might be a good idea to make a backup of the original)
  • 5) In that same folder, there is another folder called "languages". Replace the "string_dic_ENG.so" file in there with the one in the download. (NOTE: Like with the above, make a backup!)

Load the game and you're done!

Happy playing!

@Hhighkey That one is attached to the "Noble Princess" title. Be sure you meet the conditions to have that one unlocked!

@Dengarde cool gracias. Mf. Do you happen to have to offset?

@Zaiaku666 Not with this mod, as these are all obtained by editing the same files.

I do know that those two ARE set to existing titles in the basegame, but are just made inaccessable. If they're the only ones you want, you might want to look into save editing.

Is there a way to only get the individual costumes. Like that only want mysterious maiden and researcher for life.

Reinstalling the mod should also fix that.

@wawawiwa: You can still salvage your save file. You need use a Hex Editor. I have listed the necessary steps in my own DLC guide how to bypass that DLC error:

you should add warning that you can't load your save file if you don't have the mod installed anymore. spend 2 days trying to figure out why i can't load my old save file, then remembered using this mod years ago :steamfacepalm:

Thanks for rearranging which titles unlock costumes (especially the Improvisionist alt. which should be harder to unlock than it previously was) and adding the icons to them.
I tried doing it myself a while ago without much success.

Specificly the Sergeant Keroro victory lines with Karol and Patty as those reference their Japanese voice actors also voicing characters in that anime.
