Make your own Custom Pet Template [ For Modders \ Artists ] [PG]v2

Requires Purchaseable Pets as a Dependency!

  1. The | Suit
    NOT UPDATED FOR GLAD GIRAFFE

    Do you want to bring a custom pet into the starbound universe?
    Of course you do! Who doesn't?!?

    Note: This does require a minimum level of competence. It is not for your average user.

    Super Simple Instructions
    • Redraw the monster frames - make sure its 32 x 32
    • Use admin command /spawnitem pethouseCustomPet to spawn it.
    • This version of course is least compatible with other custom pets.

    Simple Version Instructions
    • Rename every instance of customPet you find in all the files including folders.
    • In another words you must look through every file and folder.
    • Draw over the monster frames provided with your own custom pet. You must keep the frames 32 x 32 pixels.
    • The only downside is the pet won't sleep in their own pet house spawner. But will still sleep in the generic pethouse.

    Advanced Version Instructions:
    • Same as above
    • The pethouseName ( Spawner object )
    • the name = Monster pet type name of your pet.
    • It should begin with a capital letter. [ example spawner name should be pethouseDog ]
    • If the first 3 letters are Pet it gets automatically removed so either avoid using pet as first 3 letters or substitute the first 3 letters as something else.

      Unfortunately, the Media fire account associated with it is gone. That is why the mod is classified as outdated.

    After some fiddleing I was able to make my own pet!

    This mod is awesome for people with CLOSE to no coding skill!
    (Minor inderstanding of animation, spriting and framing is needed though)
