Excellent! I had to make a patch mod that disabled the BYOS implementation, but now I don't need it. Thanks for the timely update. Still best ship mod.

 

not sure if i should ask here or in FrackinUniverse's discussion area, i am trying to adjust this mod so i can use it with the Droden from
Elithian Races Mod which is supported in FrackinRaces and i am not having any luck, any help would be appreciated.

 

Easiest way to do it is to copy a preexisting mod folder and change any racial references to "Droden", both in file and folder names and in the blockkey.config file. So the Ships\apex folder would be Ships\droden, apext0.structure would be drodent0.structure and so on, and you'd have to change entries like "apexshiplocker" to "drodenshiplocker" and so on. Do that and you should be golden.

 

ok thanks i will give that a try

 

could you make this for the avali

 

could you release this for avali on steam please

 

Nope. It was already on steam, but I took it down along with other mods that were being flooded with harassment. I like modding, and sharing my work, but not enough to have to deal with that. Sorry.

Also, it works as far as I know.

 

sigh that sucks to hear........ and folks wonder why we can not have nice things

 

shame people should be concentrate about your modding its great.
though even when i download it and extract it into the mod folder it does not work

 

Odd. Hm... not creating an error, but just not showing up at all? I'll take another look and see if I can't figure something out. I might need to take a look at your log file. It sounds like either the game isn't loading the mod at all, or the ship in this mod isn't correctly referencing the avali ship to replace. Not sure, but this might happen if the avali mod is a differeny name on steam.

 

heres the link to the avali mod to see if its the updated one

I can't check the meta-name for the steam version directly. It works for my copy of the the chucklefish forums version. All I have to work with for problems related to steam is your log file.

Any chance there are some tips for replacing information for custom races? I'm trying to do so for the Arachne race but it won't replace for whatever reason.

I was able to get it to work with the Arachne just fine.
What you gotta do is, first, choose which races "ship" you want for your arachne. Then, replace all uses of the prior race name with "arachne."
Example: wildavianrainmaker2000seed --> wildarachnerainmaker2000seed
You have to be sure to do this with everything in the folder. Especially the universe.server.config.

Edit: Actually, I'm running into an issue with this as well- I replaced everything to arachne using the Avikan file as a base, and it worked just fine, but when I did the exact same thing with the Avian (didn't like the look of the Avikan stuff) it doesn't work. I just get the plain Arachne ship.

It's because there's a "universe_server.config.patch" file in the Avikan's Uros IV ship mod that redirects the ship that's being loaded with that race to the Uros IV ship. Really, an easy way might be to just have that patch file redirect your modded race to any of your already downloaded ship files. We could even do that with the vanilla ships. I like to have each ship be unique for each race though, so I didn't even think to do that before.
