Sawa-Sensei Sun Dress

Description

Replaces Sawa-Sensei's outfit with a yellow sun dress.  Supports custom recoloring! (see below).

Backstory: Sawa-Sensei is conservative by nature, but after years of wearing the same old clothes to work, she wants something fresh. She decides to purchase a sun dress to try something new.  Although bashful at first, she gradually gets used to it and appreciates the change of pace.

Issues & Limitations

- Prerendered cut scenes are not affected

- She has a slight neck seam visible in some cut scenes

- Her hands/arms sometimes clip the dress since her animations were designed for a tighter fitting dress.  No way to fix this.

- The skirt remains puffed out a bit when sitting, primarily noticeable in the restaurant scene in chapter 4.  There is no way to fix this without damaging normal standing/walking behavior of the skirt.  Oddly, there is a "sit" version of the model, which would allow fixing it, but this scene does not use that variant.

- There is sometimes a milimeter or two air space between the straps and/or upper chest parts of the dress and the skin - I tried to minimize this but also had to deal with potential clipping issues if I reduced the clearance.
