This guide will explain the naming conventions of Customization Item assets in Saints Row 2.
This will be useful for quickly understanding what a Customization_Item's .cmesh looks like.
This will be useful for quickly understanding what a Customization_Item's .cmesh looks like.
Customization Item filenames have a Prefix (classifying the intended Category of the item), a Middle (the actual name of the item), and a Suffix (used to describe Wear_Options).
PREFIX:
Example: "cmdecfae"
Let's break down that example:
- "cm" stands for "Customization". It is used for ALL Customization Item assets.
- "dec" stands for "Decoration". This means this is a Tattoo or Makeup item. This is not always present.
- "fae" stands for "Face Entire". This denotes the intended Category of the Item ("Entire Face"). (ie: Where on the body does this appear?)
