I made a big bundle of a bunch of mods that people can easily install in one step. Just go to [install dir]\patch_1_06\battle\chara_aer and drop everything in there, overwriting the existing files.

Version 1.1 (7zip; contains model swaps for Alt costumes):

Version 1.0 (7zip): http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1104701/Combined%20Mod%20Pack%20AE%20-%20v1.0.7z

Version 0.9 (7zip): http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?763bclw1o2vdphp

Includes mods for the new characters

If you already download v8.0, you can download this "bugfix" release that will overwrite the bad vfx files with the originals that came with the game:

You'll need 7zip to decompress it. I left the first color and most of the cos files unchanged so people can always come back to the original look.

I only included mods that I thought were both high quality and compatible with other mods, so there aren't many cos edits (except in cases where only subtle changes were made; v1.1 adds cos edits to alt costume slots). Every vanilla character has at least 4-5 mods and I included alt-costume mods when available, though admittedly there are few.

I will continue to update the pack as new mods are created.
