Wear it YOUR way.
"Made 2 Measure" is a near total overhaul of Saints Row 2's clothing and customization systems. Pretty much anything you've ever wished you could do with clothing in Saints Row 2 can now be done!
IMPORTANT: Please read and understand the "ISSUES" section below before using M2M.
COMPATIBILITY:
🞛 If you want to get ahead, get a hat... or several! Compatibility between items has been improved with the addition of new Categories.
🞛 New systems are in place for Undershirts and Overshirts, which allow any "Untucked", "Tucked" or "Flat" model of the item to be worn.
(Click to play gif):
🞛 New "Modifier" items allow you to customize clothing items even further, by altering the Sleeve Length and Hem Height of Undershirts and Overshirts, or turning regular Gloves into Fingerless Gloves.
(Click to play gifs):
🞛 Neck Jewelry can now be worn on any layer you choose ("Overshirt", "Undershirt" or "Skin"). (Keep in mind; If Neck Jewelry appears to be invisible, it might just be hiding on the wrong layer.)
(Click to play gif):
🞛 Pendants and Medallions no longer require a Necklace to be worn.
🞛 A new Belt system has been implemented. Belts have been separated into "Belt" and "Buckles" Categories, allowing you to mix and match between them! (You can also wear belts at any height, regardless of Pants height.)
(Click to play gif):
🞛 Fancy yourself as a Hair Stylist? The new "Base Hair" item can be used to merge a selection of Hairstyles with the regular Hairstyles from the Plastic Surgeon. Switch up Shaved Tribal designs, add a Ponytail, or create the Mullet of your dreams!
(Click to play gif):
🞛 Eyelashes can now be worn with ANY other item. They also use Hair colors.
🞛 "Extra Piercing" items allow for extra piercings to be worn in addition to what's already available.
🞛 You can now have 2 Tattoos on each Leg!
🞛 Face Paint can now be worn with any combination of Facial Hair AND Make-Up.
🞛 Some Suits can now be turned into Tops or Bottoms, and can be worn with Shirts or Pants accordingly.
(Click to play gif):
🞛 The cuffs of some Pants can now be rolled up.
🞛 The new "Waistcoat" items can be worn on Overshirts and under (some) Coats to create a Three-Piece Suit.
🞛 Many more items can now have Logos applied! Some items will display Logos as you would expect, while others plaster the Logo all over the item, creating unique patterns.
🞛 Big Hats (ie; Deep Sea Helmet, Motorcycle Helmets) can now be worn in cars!
🞛 Many Hairstyles use new Hat-Hair options, some of which were previously unused (such as the Hat-Hair used in Troy's model).
🞛 Hat-Hair is no longer automatically applied, but can be manually turned on/off with the new "Hat-Hair Toggle" item. This means ANY Hairstyle can be worn with ANY Hat!

COLOR:
🞛 Default colors for most items have been changed to refresh your shopping experience.
🞛 Most previously non-colorable items are now colorable!
(Click to play gif):
🞛 ALL Tattoos are now colorable!
(Click to play gif):
🞛 You can now change your Eye Color in Player Creation/Plastic Surgeon (just like in Vanilla). This means Eye Color can be changed when starting a new game, but also means the regular Eyes can no longer use Clothing Colors...
(Click to play gif):
🞛 ...However, the new "Contact Lenses" item CAN use Clothing Colors (just like in GotR), and will replace the regular Eyes when worn!
(Click to play gif):
There are 3 Wear Options for Contact Lenses: "Normal", "Skin" (Removes Eyes) and "Forward" (Eyes won't be animated in cutscenes).
🞛 The Parachute can now be purchased in whatever color you please! (It will not show in the Wardrobe or Clothing Stores, but the changes can be seen when the Parachute is deployed.)
NEW ITEMS:
🞛 New stock at Let's Pretend! Come and visit our newly opened "Props" department!

🞛 Pimp My Zombie! New movie quality Zombie masks are available at Let's Pretend! These can be worn with most Clothing Items, and can be worn in the Plastic Surgeon.
🞛 They'll never see you coming, with the power of Invisibility!
🞛 You need all the room you can get. New "Stance" Modifier items allow you to change the width of your limbs from one another for ALL animations!
(Click to play gif):
RESTORED ITEMS:
🞛 Rings can now be worn on ANY finger!
🞛 Previously unused Beard, Mustache and Eyebrow items have been restored.
🞛 Make your mugshots even more menacing! At Rusty's Needle, we now do Face and Neck tattoos!
🞛 A handful of leftover development items have been restored!
(Click to play gif):
OUTFITS:
🞛 New Outfits have been created, and most existing Outfits have been redesigned or improved. (Note: GotR unlockable outfits will be inaccessible if you are using M2M with a Vanilla game.)
FIXES:
🞛 Any mistakes leftover from GotR or Volition have been addressed.
🞛 Some items incorrectly obscured other items, such as the "Deep Sea Helmet" which turned "Women's Fuzzy Slippers" invisible. Flags have been created to prevent this from happening.
STORES:
🞛 All Stores have been completely restocked from the ground up. This was mainly done to help keep track of M2M's development. There are no missing items from any of the Stores.
🞛 Cameras and Animations for the Wardrobe and Stores have been improved. Optional files allow Purchase animations to be disabled, or for T-Posing to replace most animations.
🞛 "Open Pricing" optional files are available, which reduce Prices for ALL Items and Outfits to just $1 or less. (Respect bonuses are impacted by this.)
OPTIONAL FILES:
🞛 Open Pricing (Everything $1 or less)!
🞛 Remove Purchase animations, or T-Pose!
🞛 Wear Clothing at the Plastic Surgeon! This allows you to see how morphing your character affects the shape of clothing items, like Glasses and Hats!
ISSUES:
A NEW GAME IS REQUIRED TO USE M2M!!!
- If you use M2M with an existing save, you will likely encounter all kinds of crashes, and possibly risk corrupting that save file.
POTENTIAL SAVE CORRUPTION:
- It is very possible to corrupt your save file by saving while wearing more than 50 Clothing, Jewelry, and Tattoo items at one time.
- M2M makes use of 88 Slots, so this is an easy mistake to make. Be conservative with how many items you apply to your character.
- It is highly recommended to ALWAYS keep a back-up of your save.
Using M2M with Vanilla:
- M2M was built upon GotR's files, and was predominantly tested on GotR. M2M has not been tested as thoroughly with Vanilla, so it's possible there may be some unexpected bugs. But it should work fine for the most part.
- M2M was also built using the GOG version of Saints Row 2, which is Long Address Aware (LAA). It's possible the non-patched Steam version will crash more often.
- GotR unlockable Outfits will be inaccessible when using M2M with a Vanilla game.
- Some Outfits will display incorrect Logos, since they are intended to use GotR designs.
Potential Crashes:
- It is not possible to wear one of every item, because the game doesn't have enough memory, and will crash when the limit is exceeded. This number is higher than the amount it takes to corrupt a save, as mentioned above.
- It is possible on occasion for the game to get confused when combining "Belt Straps" items with "Buckles" items, since it is essentially loading the same item/material twice. This can result in incorrect rendering, possibly followed by a crash. The frequency of this issue may vary between players.
- Bear in mind; Every time you preview an item mesh, it gets added to the game's temporary memory. It is possible to exceed this and crash the game, simply by previewing enough meshes in a short enough span of time. This issue is mostly of concern when previewing back and forth between "Base Hair" and regular Hairstyles from the Plastic Surgeon, as Head Hair meshes use more memory than most other items.
Coloration Issues:
- The "Base Hair", "5 O'Clock Shadow" and "Eyelashes" items may initially appear slightly green for some players. This is due to a fix for an issue with rendering, which was caused by the default colors, which only affected some players.
"Sticky" Items:
- Some item Categories may exhibit "Sticky" behaviour when switching menus and Outfits, applying the item even when you don't want them to be applied. This was an issue before M2M, but has been exacerbated by the addition of new Slots which were previously unused. The issue is due to the properties of those Slots, which cannot be edited (to my knowledge).
Previously Purchased Items Look Different:
- Some items purchased before installing M2M may appear differently to how you purchased them. This is due to the Styles (patterns) being reorganized for some items.
Invisibility Shadows:
- If your character looks like this when using any item which turns the Playa invisible:
...change "Shadow Maps" to "Simple" in the Display Options menu. This will disable character shadows. You will want to do this while wearing Props.
INSTALLATION:
