I have a few questions that I have yet to find answers for about this nude patch. And thanks to those a**holes at Tecmo I'm going to need to search around quite a bit to get my answers. Hopefully someone here can help me out.
My first question is this, how many different nude patches are there for DOAXBV? On another thread in this very forum it mentions two, and I can only imagine how many more there are floating out there. Hopefully not many more.
the next question would be what are the differences between all the different versions that exist.
final question is what options do I have to get this patch working. Including the option to "obtain" the game pre-patched, which I'm assuming is possible, and any other possible way to get the patch working.
oh yeah, and if someone could hint me in the direction as to were I can find the "said" files, that would be great too.
Thanks!

Thanks, but what about the rest of my questions, can I get some help with those also? Or do I have to go to xbins to ask these questions now.

I thought you needed the nude patch. As to obtaining the game pre-patched, I don't know if anyone's gonna help you out cuz that's piracy, and that's a sensitive subject.

I'm sorry for the misunderstanding, but I'm not asking for the patch, or the game pre-patched.
I'm asking about the patch, not asking for the patch. I'd like to know everything I can find out about the nude patch for this game before I do anything.
I would like to know if there is only one version of this patch, or if there are multiple versions, possibly made by different people.
If there are different versions, what are the differences between them.
I hope I was able to better word the questions this time. Thanks.

Yeah I believe there are several versions. The one on #xbins totally uncensors every part, so it must be the complete one. I think the other versions still have the tanlines or the extra bikini strings attached to the bodies. Hope that clears things up for you.

Thanks that does clear things up. You see, I have some screenshots somewhere on my HDD that I downloaded from gamershell a while ago, and it had the bikini strings still there as well as some tanlines, but it wasn't censored as far as I could tell. It just confused me and I wanted to know if there were different versions. I do have one more question though, I checked the xbins list and I didn't see it listed there. Is it really on there, just hidden maybe? Thanks again for the help.

173KB is right, and it should be a .rar file. Inside it should be 2 files and a txt with instructions. The 2 files should be patch.datadvd.ppf and patch.default.ppf.

I forgot to tell you it works, and it works well haha. I had been playing it patched for well over a week now, but forgot about this post. But I am quite curious about those textures though. I mean 173 KB is just way too small. I'm starting to think maybe the textures were there already, after all there is some trick you can do to look through their swimsuits in the game, but it shows stars over everything. Hmmm...maybe that is why tecmo got so worked up over the whole nude patch thing...anyway, thanks again for all the help!

If you don't mind I actually have another question. I have both the nude, and original version of DOAXBV on my Xbox so I can choose which one I want to play, and after examining the file size difference out of curiousity, I found that the file sizes for the pathed and original files are the exact same. So needless to say I'm confused now. The default.xbe and datadvd.asf files are the exact same size down to the byte. I don't know if they are the same down to the bit level, but they are both the same file size in bytes. Do you know why this is? Thanks.

Np, I do have something that I thougth I might share with you though. Just a few things I've discovered.
There are at least three different nude patches for this game that I have found. I don't know who made them, or what they are called, if they even have a specific name, but I can describe the differences between them.
1) The first one I downloaded was VIA bittorrent and was the default.xbe and datadvd.afs files pre-patched. This version works great, and has nice detail. Differeneces with this one; does not have the money hack, or screenshot hack, or any other cheats for that matter, that are included with the other two, and models have large A-holes.
2) This was a patch I had to apply. Differences with this one; models do not have A-holes, and most models had tanlines. It also included a money hack that gave you 99,999,999 Zach dollars, and a screen shot hack that saved bitmap images to the game directory when the L-Trigger is pulled.
3) This was also a patch that I had to apply. Differences with this one; models have small A-holes and what I'm pretty sure is a f**k hole right below the a-hole. Although it isn't inside the slit soooo I really dunno. This patch also included the same money hack, and screen shot hack mentioned above.
I'm pretty sure all the tits were the same, and they all had slits, although p-hair color may have varied slightly between the different patches with certain characters. Other then that they are pretty different.

Personaly all those 'Hacks' bite! >=)
If you looking to do some 'Hardcore' DOAX Hacking you need to Hex edit your Default.xbe to allow 3'ed Party Textures (i.e. Nude Texters W or W/o Hair, Tan or A-Holes. As far as Money, Screen Shots (NTSC ONLY??) at-al you could activate these at will. As far as the 'Strings' go you have two options. 1) Use Swimsuits that DO NOT HAVE STRINGS or copy athe mdAy00ay.cat File 1,672 times then use "Oscar's Renamer" to rename each one of those 1,671 Files back into there proper names. No more Stings....
Wow Nudes! Cool.... For about the first Week or so. Now I kinda miss not beeing able to use the Swimsuits. Surly we could have this Cake and eat it to cant we?
Well yes you can and if you could manage the Above this is only just slightly more advanced. But very, very much worth the effort.
Ok you're going to need a few things (if you did the above 'Hack' then you should already have most of it already. These Programs include "AFSExplorer 3.4", "Photoshop CS2 30 Day Trial" (or as I understand it Paint Shop Pro should work too),. The "nVida .dds Photoshop Plug-in", "BossAFS", "MiteeXPRv3" and the "xvi32" Hex Editor.
You can goolge any of the above " " to find links to the Downloads.
Ok so you just finnished getting all this stuff. WTF do you do with it? I'll tell you!
As needles as it is to say this, I'll go ahead anyway you will need a 'Chipped XBOX' with a decent size HDD in the Box yes you could get away with a stock one. But you wouldn't have much room left for your Game Saves! A few other tools like "DVD2XBOX" or "Quix101" are also must haves if your looking to 'Rip' your privately aquirerd DVD, or to Burn one.
Ok again you need to start off by editing your 'Default.xbe' You can activate anything you might like Money, One Dollar Hack, Screen Shoots (NTSC ONLY??) The main one to turn on is the Texture Hack. YOU DO NOT WANT TO USE THE SWIMSUIT HACK. Kinda defeats the purpose!
Ok assuming you managed to rip your Copy of DOAX to the HDD FTP copy over the 'Datahdd.afs' File this is where all you Swimsuits are. once you have it on the PC open up AFSExplorer 3.4. And then open your 'Datahdd.afs' File. Now if you look on the 'Toolbar' you should see a pair of Binoculars (i.e. Search) there are 8 Characters. There are 16 File we need to extract. One for the Shops. The other being on the Character Herself. The Files are:
mdAy00ay.xpr : Nymph
mdAy00ay.xpr : Nymph
mdCr00Cr.xpr : Lapis Lazuli
mdCr00Cr.xpr : Lapis Lazuli
mdHe00ls.xpr : Panache
mdHe00ls.xpr : Panache
mdHt00ht.xpr : Aries
mdHt00ht.xpr : Aries
mdKs00ay.xpr : Tulip
mdKs00ay.xpr : Tulip
mdLe00ht.xpr : Robin
mdLe00ht.xpr : Robin
mdLs00ls.xpr : Brigit
mdLs00ls.xpr : Brigit
mdTn00tn.xpr : Sirius
mdTn00tn.xpr : Sirius
Now that you have the File(s) Extracted there are in fact 2 Files for each Girl (As above!), But you really only need edit just one of 'em just take note that when you go later on to enject these 'Textures' back in to the 'Datahdd.afs' that you have to do so twice!
Ok so lets open mdAy00ay.xpr with the "MiteeXPRv3" Tool in the first line choose the mdAy00ay.xpr File. The second Line is the location where the .dds Files will unpack to.
Ok I can't speak for the World but I love Photoshop CS2! Allthough I assume that you could do the same in Paint Shop Pro. I have no inkling about it! Allthough ma gut feeling tells me that the same ideas should hold up there too!
So I'm going to assume you all will want to fallow along on Photoshop CS2 (30 Day Trial). Which you should have installed by now. On now would be a good time to get the nVidia .dds (directX plug-in) and install it. After which simply clicking on a .dds File should open (or force open Photoshop CS2)
Ok here's were the fun begings
If you unpacked the mdAy00ay.xpr File (with miteeXPRv3), you should have 7 Files:
mdAy00ay.xpr-1.dds 32.1k
mdAy00ay.xpr-2.dds 64.1k
mdAy00ay.xpr-3.dds 8.12k
mdAy00ay.xpr-4.dds 64.1k
mdAy00ay.xpr-5.dds 8.12k
mdAy00ay.xpr-6.dds 16.1k
mdAy00ay.xpr-Report.txt
Ok what we want to do is to take Texture mdAy00ay*.* and add an Alpha Channel to it. So if you look in your Photoshop Window at the bottom right you should see a Toolbox with 'Layers / Channels / Paths'. Choose Channels and then the icon just to the left of the 'Trashcan' to add a new Channel. This Channel should be called 'Alpha 1' and be a Black Box by deafult. See the 'Eyeball' next to 'Alpha 1!? Click on the RGB Channel to display ALL CHANNELS. Now your texture should be a Red-ish color.
After adding the Alpha Channel and reduceing the Immage size (be sure to turn off 'Constrain Proportions' WE only need to reduce the 'Widith' (in this case from 512 to 256) and then save.
You might get an Error message "Alpha is all Zero, Formats with Alpha will appear black in preview." IGNORE IT!!!
Now you should have the nVidia dds format (v6.74) loaded. Choose the save format DXT5 ARGB (Interpolated Alpha), '2D Texture' set MIP Map Generation to 'No MIP maps' then SAVE!
Do the same thing with mdAy00ay.xpr-2 though 6 then enject all those .dds Files back into the mdAy00ay.xpr File!
Now just for Sh*ts and giggles open mdAy00ay.xpr with "BossASF" and see how messedup those Textures are? we need to fix that!
It's time to Fire up "xiv32" or WinHex or what ever you like! Search for the Hex String '2A 0C' The 0C is the DXT1 Flag in order for this to work we need to change the Flag to '0F' (or DXT4) ok the very next byte should be '91' Let me make this simple. At least more simple the the fragments I found from the scraps of NinjaHacker still floating around on Google Chache.
91 = 512
81 = 256
71 = 128
61 = 64
51 = 32
So if we made mdAy00ay.xpr-1.dds smaller (orig 512x128 to 256x128) we'd want to edit '91' out to read '81'. Continue this for each Texture then save!
Now you can recognize your Textures again! in "BossAFS"! And you almost finnished too! =)
All you need to do now is to Activate your 'Alpha Channels' to make the Suits disapear. Open "BossAFS" then open your File (ex: mdAy00ay.xpr). Right-Click in the Field, then choose 'Textures and Transparencies (XPRTune)'. Click the Number '0~5' (which all should read DXT4!!) and then check the two boxes 'Allow Transparency' and 'Allow 256 Transparency'
That's it! All you have to do now is to fireup AFSExplorer find the two instances of 'mdAy00ay.xpr' and replace it with the one you just created and then FTP your 'Datahdd.afs' File back to your XBOX. Let the Warrning go by choose Ayane and at the first chance run to the Pool side to humm view Ayane....
If you get tierd of this just paly a few Games of Vollyball to earn some Cash (or play the 'Hopping Game' to raise Cash), and get a new Swimsuit. :)

Just another note this trick works wonders on the Leifangs' EMU. Note you do need to make the Alpha more of a Greay-ish color then outright Black and might need a some what more artistic hand to achive the desirerd effect but it can be done!
