Question about model packs

Added 2025-01-28 05:57:09 +0000 UTC

So here's another important question I have regarding models and packs:

For a bit now my goal with model releases has been to include an all-in-one pack per character. Essentially, every character release includes their default outfit as well as alternates I've made and other miscellaneous outfits like the bunny suit or skinsuit. This however has led me to putting off model releases since I want to include all outfits in a pack, which would mean additional time being spent head swapping. The recent Yakumo Harem outfits as well as White Heart's harem outfit are good examples of what I mean.

I have thought about returning to the old format I did for models, where outfits were either part of a multi-character pack or given a singular release. The issue I found with this came from when I updated an outfit or body mesh and I'd have to go update packs one by one. I've also worried it can lead to confusion about what model is up-to-date compared to the others. However, it also means I can release a model a lot sooner than waiting until I get the other outfits done, the time of which depends on my workload. With all that in mind, I wanted to ask what you guys think? Which kind of model releases do you prefer or think would be better?
