I have a nice table and chair mesh and I want to know if it's possible to derive only the chair with no animations so I can add stand alone animations separately.
Does anyone know if this is possible? Thanks!

Does the table have its own material ID different from the chair?

Maybe able blackout on opacity also to remove the table?

You're a good mesher

@Soli

That's what I was thinking, but the table will need its own material ID or its own submesh. If it shares a material ID with the chair, but has its own submesh ... then we could edit the table's material ID to be different than the chair's.

i hadn't checked if it's separate but good suggestion. I remember you taught me to decompile and add nodes. Can I use the same method to remove them? I think making things transparent would still technically include the mesh with everything and my kbs would be high for a single chair.

ty. I could mesh a chair but I have a nice set in my club and I really like it but wouldn't want to steal someone's work. Turning the table invisible wouldn't work unless I can remove the nodes. There's 2 chairs and one table. Each chair has a sit pose, table has a node and there's another standing node next to it. 3 of the poses are kink poses. I want to add an empty chair so I can have regular seating that matches. I had a handful of people in the club and it's awkward when the third seat is either a toe sucking or fondling pose lol i think I need at least 3 regular seats.

Correct, you can remove the nodes by decompiling the xsf skeleton file and removing all of the stance nodes from the skeleton.

I tried the decompilation, I wanted to remove a monitor & all the couple poses from a table top but gave up after 40 minutes of attempts. Dont know if its just me or anything past the texture replacement in create is way too complicated.
