    to update your mod made from this base to glad giraffe, go to
    [yourmodname]/ai and open ai.config.patch next, inbetween "aiFrames" : "humanAi.png",
    and
    "staticFrames" : "staticHuman.png:",
    type;
    "portraitFrames" : "portraits/humanPortraits.png",
    and you should be good to go

    This has been helping me understand how to make a race and it is awesome but if I unzip the file straight into the mods folder I get this error: Fatal Exeption caught: (StarExeption) An error occurred during loading: (JsonExeption) No such key in Json::get("portraitFrames")
    I do have other mods but the game runs fine unless I put this file into the folder. Is there a way to fix this?

      You could run it on Upbeat Giraffe. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
      The mod's outdated, so it only serves as a reference until/if I get around to updating it.

    Awesome resource for getting old races back into the game - this helps you understand the new format and will greatly reduce your frustration level ;)

    Must have for anyone starting out on trying to make or update old race mods, very appreciative of this as alot of older races where made well but left to gather dust, now I can fill up my tons o' empty race selection spots!

    It is what it says on the can, and great for it. I didn't use the a guide or anything but found my way through with a lot of trial and error, and the one major issue that cropped up was VERY quickly fixed by the author. Long live the New Race Jumpstart Kit! Death to the Miniknog!

    Beat me to making this, haha! It's very well made, helpful guides, and includes all the needed files. There are some extra unneeded ones, though. All thats really needed in the ai folder is the png and main ai.config.patch.

    Other than that, though, this is perfect.

      This is true, but the AI's text won't work properly without patching another dozen files... and who honestly wants to do that?

    Thank you so much! While I didn't actually install the mod itself, I used it as a template to find out what I was missing and why my race mod was crashing. Thanks dude!

      Not a problem! As long as I've helped someone get their mod working, this mod's served its purpose. :)
