    How to use:
    To turn the ADVANCED_RACE_TEMPLATE_EASY_SETUP.txt into a bat file open it up in your word editor, go Save As, then Save As Type, change that to All Files. Then change the name to ADVANCED_RACE_TEMPLATE_EASY_SETUP.bat

    Run the batch file ADVANCED_RACE_TEMPLATE_EASY_SETUP.bat. Pick a name for your race USING ONLY LOWERCASE and NO SPACES, press enter and BAMN. That's all there is to it.

    A more step by step instruction

    Starting with a fresh template:

    Unzip the file and put it into your mods folder.

    Run the .bat file and choose a name longer than 3 characters, lowercase only, no spaces. (note .bat files are for windows only)

    Open starbound and you should see a pale bald human with the female wearing green in your list.

    If you do, then hoorah! you can now begin editing, if not, check your log file at starbound/storage. You can open it up in notepad++

    If you aren't running windows then you will either need a program or to manually change all instances of skadvtest to your chosen race name.

    Known issues from bat:
    Check dialog files to make sure they have been renamed by the bat file.


    Included:
    All Tier armours - various races

    One of the main reasons I love Starbound is the lore and themes of the races, and this makes it so easy to make your own, seriously thank you so much.
