    Didnt take me too long to get a prototype. My friend demanded the theme when I told him I was gonna take a swing at things, lmao. Figured why the hell not, theres bound to be people here who want to see this race :p

    Its not done yet - only done the 1 hairstyle so far, and want to add the ability to choose wings/horn/none, which I'm working on now. Its amazing how easy this is.

    Edit: And that is the feline ship back there. Havent found something I'd like to use for it yet - Was just using a copy of your files for reference. No worries, if I release it public, I'll change the ship to a default one if I don't have one of my own by then)

    Do you mind if I look at what you have done, and then use bits and pieces to scrap up my own custom race? I can give you credit if you wish.

    I knew it would show up eventually! I'm making a magitech crystal spaceship for an MLP race as I type, actually. I'm having a bit of trouble with shading and reflections, but it's getting somewhere.

    "labelSpeciesRadio" : {
    "type" : "label",
    "position" : [69, 222],
    "hAnchor" : "mid",
    "value" : "SPECIES"
    },

    Hope you don’t mind if i post my fix to that here.

    Gave your mod a DL, really straight forward stuff. Didn't even have trouble adding the new lines despite using default Notepad to edit.
    Also works like a charm! No issues minus the Character Creation one but that seems to have gotten a fix above, great stuff.

    How hard was it to get all this in? I haven't dug into the files yet but I'd like to read a little breakdown from you on your approach :)

    Cheers

    In retrospect, I expected it'd be harder. The most difficult bit has to be figuring out what exactly went wrong. It's likely a JSON problem but the message box isn't too helpful. Luckily there's log files. And the first update doesn't seem capable of showing the message box so I'm glad I made this in the first version and just checked for breaks later on. But sometimes it was just a missing directory, like /cinematics. I hope a tutorial webpage (coming soon, really) counts as "a little breakdown".

    I'LL DO IT! I needed to choose a race to make, Looks like you gave me my answer THANKS!

    Possibly wrap the ship in some yarn looking thing?

    Okay i got through the main problem, but now : When i press create new character it crashes.
    "PlayerException: No such stored player with uuid
    'a0aa52e2b0a92f97757814880baf1d92'"
    [INSERT RANDOM GIBBERISH HERE]

    Help!

    EDIT : I DID IT!!! The problem was the leftover player files from the player files, on a nonfunctioning previous try.
    -.-

    ok so question. Could I make an accompanying race that works like a rival of the Felin in backstory? I wanna make mice :D if not I'll just make them without tie-ins to the Felin race.

    What about race specific items? I'm envisioning 50's sci fi motif.

    Edit:
    Lava lamps!

    Retro finned helmets!
    Weapon with a cats paw on the end!

    Scratched and damaged furniture?

    Race plants:
    catnip
    purrfle

    I have an answer to your index question (well, at least I think I do). It seems to function as some sort of ID for the species in the character creation screen. I noticed when I changed it to anything above 6, it wouldn't allow me to select the character to create them any more. However, when I added in another species, gave it index slot 6, and the other index slot 7, it all seemed to function normally.

    So I still don't quite understand it, but as long as you use the number one higher than the last species it should all work out fine.

    Edit: Well I read the rest of the tutorial and it seems you actually answered it yourself later on, so, yeah.

    Sure, go nuts.
    I like these ideas. Ever since I read this post on my phone when I woke up earlier, I've been considering adding a little shelf to the ship with a lava lamp on. Both destructible, for no good reason at all.
    And that's why I'd like charcreation.config to use species names to bind those buttons.

    I am also happy to announce that the new update reverted exactly one change -- the species list in player.config.

    If that dungeon creation tool ever gets made, I could do some work creating a race specific village and or sawblade dungeon

    Well, that'd be lovely. Meanwhile, I'm just sitting here trying to find a good spot to put that lava lamp...
