RELEASED Avali (Triage) 1.11.0

The restart animation is, simply put, the largest, most difficult animation to put together, right after the intro cinematics (That don't even play because Chucklefish has them all disabled).
Add that on to the fact that it's not something players will see that often, and the fact that players who do see it may/may not WANT to see it, and you have a file that's going to be on the backburner for quite some time.

 

Good to see things are going well. I've noticed however, since Fevix is also in charge of making changes (not additions) to the augments and assortments mod, would it be possible to perhaps rebalance the sleet, avalanche, and thaw(I designed that ) so that their damage and energy values fit in with how the current weapons have been balanced, perhaps? I love the designs of those weapons, but doing over 13.8k dps with a flamethrower made from durasteel seems a bit iffy.

 

I'm not even entirely sure if I'm permitted to do even that. Perhaps if @Icebelly or @Quilavabom gave me permission. As far as I know, my permissions regarding the Augments mod extend only to keeping it playable.

 

By all means, rebalance! I always hated balancing things. Creating things? Love it. New ideas? Fun! But balancing? My blood pressure goes up just thinking about it. I mean, you could just make it match the dps of comparable things, but then it's basically just a reskin in my opinion. I always disliked reskins. Not sure about what Ice would say, but that's my two cents.

 

Meanwhile, while Quil hates balancing I always loved it. But yeah. Still waiting for that creative spark with starbound. Had a small one here and there but it's not really a giant push yet. Maybe when the new update comes out. I liked the idea of the jump puzzles and dungeons I've seen from the front page posts.

But yeah. By all means, if something is a little over or underpowered, go ahead and fix it.

 

Alright, thanks. I'll get on it when I have some free time. It's near the end of the day for me right now, and tomorrow's likely to be filled with shopping for groceries.

 

This is probably either way too late or totally outdated, but the craftable Avali doors don't seem to have sounds. Unsure if this was fixed already.

 

ok i do know how hard ingame movies are and i still dont care if we dont have a respawn thing/ aneyway you have do a lot for this race already!

there is another thing will you include a pet if not can you add the bunny because i love bunnies!!

 

There was a bunny-fox hybrid pet in plans, but nothing was mentioned after a while.

edit: The glitch respawn animation is around 120 frames, that's boring to do, not hard. As long as you have the parts you need to animate sepparated in layers in whatever program you're using, the copy-pasta and shifting and deleting work should do most of the tricks in some cases. The problem is likely the in-game system with the .frames files and whatnot, i have no idea what they are like.

 

All AIs are called "S.A.I.L.", with the exeption of the mod-made one with a blue female avian image, which is called "A.V.I.A.N."

 

Also a quick thing I guess.

This little thread may possibly help with creating certain new content ideas whilst making as close as possible to canonical Avali lore. Just a few extra things Ryu has brought up, involving some tech, tribe behavior, misconceptions, etc.
Dunno how much help it'll give, but it's some!

 

Fixed in the upcoming update.

 

They changed how sounds are called up.
Old:

Code:

  "openSounds" : [ "/sfx/objects/apexcooldoor_open.wav" ],
  "closeSounds" : [ "/sfx/objects/apexcooldoor_close.wav" ]

New:

Code:

  "animationCustom":
  {
    "sounds":
    {
      "open": [ "/sfx/objects/apexcooldoor_open.wav" ],
      "close": [ "/sfx/objects/apexcooldoor_close.wav" ]
    }
  },

(Late edit: Thanks ThakyZ for figuring this out)

 

A lot of time, experimenting, and back up files. I usually make a copy of the file I'm trying to edit and replace the corrupted (broken) file with the backed up one.

 

There should be more than one instance or reference to said item, and they should be identical. I'm just guessing, can't understand most of coding wizardry.

 

Make sure your commas are properly formatted.
You need commas at the end of almost every line, excluding the last one (The one before the final "}")

 

I used text edit for Mac for my small coding. It was a stubern default program, but I finally got it to work once I edited the settings to put the right parentheses. Without doing this, it only crashed the game.

 

Oh look, i was searching for some pics earlier on the thread, and found this...

 

I found an Avali settlement last night! I think the new update that made some stuff glowy and what not (like solarium ores) must have fixed that minidungeon thing.

 

Glowy ores? Did you add a glowing ores mod, perhaps?
