Description


This mod adds Protogen to Starbound!

This mod is in it's very early stages, and as such may not be entirely balanced or function properly. Let me know of any bugs you find, and I'll be sure to fix those ASAP.

Join the community on Discord![discord.gg]

This will require a mod that adds more species options to the character creation screen. I recommend Xbawks Character Extender

Mannequins add-on: available here

Riv's retexture add-on: available here

Extended Customization add-on: available here

Blue striped ship retexture: available here

Frackin' Universe BYOS support: available here



New update: Update V0.9.5

Been a while, hasn't it? This update adds a bit of new stuff, rebalances other stuff, and changes a few other things here and there.

WARNING! this update changes tile IDs to fix conflicts with the Black Ice mod, and will cause all existing saves with protogen tiles present to convert to either dirt or black ice tiles. Tiles in the inventory shouldn't be affected.

WARNING 2!! This update changes the tail sprites a little bit to fix some issues with it, but if you're using the customization addon it won't work. There is a separate patch available that overrides the file in question with a version including the new tail.

NEW CONTENT

STAREXTENSIONS
- The Protogen mod now has support for text-to-speech voices with the StarExtensions[github.com] mod, because I thought it was funny. Also makes the heads rotate to where your mouse is pointing, and works fully with/without the mod installed.

CHARACTERS
- Added a few new fin style options to the character creator. I tried to make versions with glowy bits, but couldn't get them to inherit the eye colour properly :(

MECHS
- The Protogen now have their own unique starter mech chassis, as well as a craftable upgraded variant. If anything goes wrong with it, let me know. In my testing it's been okay, but your mileage may vary.

ARMOUR
- All 4 initial tiers of armour are now available, craftable at the Protogen workbench available at the Inventors Table level 2.

WEAPONS
- A new upgraded variant of the starter sword, a new shortsword, & 2 new shields, all craftable at the Protogen workbench.

CLOTHING
- Re-added clothing options to the character creator, currently just 2 options but I might make more eventually.

CRAFTING
- Changed a bunch of recipes up, fixed a few that were broken or unimplemented, swapped the furniture to be craftable with iron instead of tungsten, and made it possible for non-Protogen characters to get the crafting stations, items, and recipes via a shop terminal craftable at the inventors table.

NPCS
- Fixes a few things relating to NPC/tenants, gives them more fitting speech sounds, and enables new types to spawn like merchants and guards, which should have proper outfits. I think. (If anything breaks lemme know)

BUGS
- Fixed some stuff like that pesky RAM item issue, some NPC shenanigans, and a few broken things here and there.

MISC.
- Changed the design of the flag again, and also probably some other stuff I forgot

Frackin' Universe FUSAIL patch available here[github.com], though FU itself should come with out of the box compatibility now. I will be working on my own Frackin' Races stat add-on at some point though.

In order for Futara's Dragon Pixel Full Bright Shader mod to work there's a specific installation method listed in the description, read it carefully instead of just hitting subscribe. The glow effect on Protogen faces will require a new character to function, there's unfortunately no way around that as far as I am aware.

What is currently included in this mod:
-Full custom race with all requisite sprites
-Custom race-specific weapons
-Custom armour sets
-Custom NPC merchant
-Custom race-specific S.A.I.L sprites
-Custom ship pet
-WIP custom respawn animations
-Custom race ship, textures courtesy of Brossu_[www.instagram.com]


What will be added to the mod at a later date:
-Generated structures

If anything, and I mean ANYTHING, is awry, let me know ASAP. I want your feedback to help me make this mod something the community can enjoy.

Also available on the Chucklefish forums here[community.playstarbound.com]

@Archeddragon936 Not currently as IRL stuff usually eats up a lot of my time these days and I can only work on it sporadically, hopefully I can put something together for it eventually however
Bun  [author] 24 Nov @ 1:39am 
@HereComesBoi They have their own crafting tables you can make at an inventors table
HereComesBoi 24 Nov @ 12:35am 
hold up can you get armor with this race, cause i don't see any craftable armor in the anvil recipes
Archeddragon936 23 Nov @ 12:44pm 
do you have an estimated time that the next update will release?
FebruMan 22 Nov @ 9:58am 
Cheers for answer!
I mean though you can get a Tier 1 protogen guards, but I can't seem get past that one and instead I'm getting the mixed ones.
Bun  [author] 22 Nov @ 9:25am 
I believe there should be guard NPCs but I may have misconfigured the file, I will take a look at it sometime when I am able.
FebruMan 22 Nov @ 8:45am 
Can you get Tier armor on Tenant Guard NPCs? I'm using colony deed to make it out but I get only mixed races there.

@Bun I think I was being stupid. Basically I thought whatever the "Proto Techsuit" items were was the body glitching out, as the clothes look like a blacked out muscular body
Bun  [author] 19 Nov @ 11:39pm 
@PrinceJaxonHellsing™ Can you elaborate on the issue you're having a bit more? What exactly is broken with the outfits in the character creator?

Or am I stoopid?
