Outdated Argonian Race v0.4d - ENRAGED KOALA

After further testing there's a bug on this mod's end. I tested by removing the Agronian mod out of the "mods" folder but left my elf mod charcreation file with the extra edits still in.
Boot up and my elf race works fine. When i add this mod back in with identical charcreation file as the elf one, both races are buggy, selectable but they dont actually pick the real race, just immatate the default ones.
i remove the elf folder this time and just load this Argonian mod(with the elf edits still in the charcreaton file) And the charcreation screen is a lil buggy.

My characterCreation file looks like so:

Code:

Indices must be consecutive. Make sure the Elf and Argonian .species files are index 6 and 7 respectively, and change the 20 and 21 in charcreation.config to 6 and 7 as well.

 

April here!
Thanks Kawa! We (Sabboth and I) really appreciate help and feedback from other community mod authors.

 

I know you said in your mod that you are looking to making future ships that we can upgrade too, but the fact that we start out with the smallest one when we do not have access to the others really is detrimental to our current play.

 

I may go ahead and design the default sized and stylized Argonian ship and use that until ship upgrading is introduced. Then return back to the small ship for back story when ships can be upgraded.

 

If that is something that is doable that would be great, as I do understand the logic behind the small ship its just hard to manage currently.

 

Hey everyone! Currently April and I are working the next update to the Argonian race mod.
Update v0.2 will include [BUZZ WORD] new content such as:

• 24 (woah!) new horn/feather styles courtesy of April Smith!
• A new default sized Argonian style ship. The small ship will return once upgrades are released.
• Slightly altered Argonian head to help with the eyes being covered when using some helmets.
• 2 easier-on-the-eyes colors for red and blue to use in character creation.
• 4 fully animated sets of default Argonian clothing to use in character creation and crafting!
• Tier 1 armor and weapons!

Look for the update in the next couple days!

And don't forget, once the next update rolls out for the base game, "__merge" will be added to mod functionality and getting this race to work alongside other races should hopefully become a little easier. Not totally plug n' play, but easier.

 

This is good news to hear. Easier is always good.

 

What ? Where ? There's no word "HYLOTL" in charcreation.config file.

 

Lies, I tell you!

Code:

{
  "textLabels" : [
    [ "SKIN COLOR", "HAIR STYLE", "SHIRT", "PANTS", "UNDY COLOR", "HAIR COLOR", "SHIRT COLOR", "PANTS COLOR", "HUMAN", "PERSONALITY" ],

Thank you Kawa!

 

Sabboth updated Argonian Race with a new update entry:

Argonian Race Mod December 21st Update - Version 0.2 Released!

Read the rest of this update entry...

 

Game refuses to start while this mod is loaded.

 

Are you trying to use more than one race mod? Also, did you get Xander Kau's Extended Character Creation Mod? If you have the Xander's mod, and are using just my Argonian race, it should boot up just fine. If you're using more than one race mod, issues will arise when the species ID and Index aren't sequential.

 

First, what Sabboth said.

Second, can I just say "Thank you" for posting your issues in the discussion first so we can help you figure this out before just writing up a bad review because of some silly clinical error? Thank you! That's what the discussion thread is here for!

 

Sabboth updated Argonian Race with a new update entry:

Angry Koala update!

Read the rest of this update entry...

 

Following the simple drag and drop, it adds the race to the menu.. I can make a character, but then when I try to load the Argonian it hangs for a bit than says "client-server connection no longer valid"... Everything else works fine so I don't know what it is... *EDIT* I added another race mod, and that works perfectly as well.... Its just this one

 

I have this problem too. I can also confirm it seems to just be an issue with this race mod specifically. I have the Kangaru and Elf race mods in and both work perfectly fine as of this recent update v. Angry Koala.

I have noticed that when I look at my save files the Argonian character seems to fail to create a .shipworld file for itself upon creation.

 

Start the game and let it hang up, then once it shows you the error, go into your steamapps/common/Starbound folder and copy your Starbound.log file down here, it'll let me know what the issue is. I just looked at the Elf mod and their default.treasurepools doesn't have a __merge in it, so I'm wondering if that's an issue.

 

Yes, it's an issue with the elf race mod instead, I believe. My Argonians work fine alone but installing the elf race mod causes me to have the exact same problem that you two are reporting. I'm going to add __merge to their files and see if that works.
