I was wondering if anyone's played "The Dig" if so do you remember the race in it called which I'm not sure had a name but I think they were called the Cocytians (or at least the humans would have called them that because they called the planet Cocytus)? Since The Dig is quite low res I think the translation of that species into this game would be quite easy. Thank you kindly for considering my request. Take care, -I.P. Some references: Pictures: Race: Pet?: Ship?: and/or AI maybe? Video: Race: Ship:
Are you planning on assisting in the creation? Or just requesting. If its just requesting I am moving it to suggestions
I wasn't going to help originally. However, I talked to a friend and we've decided to do it together. We're willing to accept anyone else who'd like to help though ^^
Glad to here it - if you have any doubts post them here and we have a great community willing to help to answer them. I suggest reading the modding guides first. Don't worry you don't need to know any programming at all to make race mods and even the pixel art is fairly simple as its more like a coloring book when making it. Once you finish the guides download a template mod to get started. http://community.playstarbound.com/resources/new-race-jumpstart-kit.2408/
Thank you so much. Neither of us mind programming as we're both interested in it and have past experience so that doesn't bother us ^^. I'm not all that graphically inclined, yet... my friend is however, so they'll be doing most of that until I learn how to use graphical tools well.
Ya the biggest mistake many users make is they worry too much about graphics. The most important thing is not to worry about graphics at all - just make something and release it. Over time you can improve upon it one step at a time. If you keep delaying it due to not meeting your standard it will never get released. So just bare that in mind - make the minimum first [ just the race ] and each additional thing bit by bit ] ship \ furniture \ etc ]
