NEW ENTRY TO WILLIAM'S BACKSTORY!

Check out the Deviantart account I made of William for weekly updates on his backstory and concept arts of his upcoming/current/past inventions or appearances!

There's also a picture of him when he was in his early 30s or so, so check it out to see William with a small beard - AND A FULL, LUSHIOUS HEAD OF HAIR!

Take a look at this Mod Spotlight by a swell chap named Jon, of Jardev!

New update (Alchemy 4 Dummies) now out, adding many new crafting recipes! Robots are now much harder to craft but they've been made much stronger as well!

I'll be doing a comic-kind-of-thing bout William's past. I'll also be adding more to his speech that'll hint to his background.

New HD textures for Wil, and has a new, much higher quality piano voice (played horribly by yours truly :razz:)!

See STATS for info about the Wrenches, Potions, robot, and William himself!

Fixed the Blueprints dissappearing without summoning a robot when the player doesn't have enough gears!

I love making mods for Don't Starve. Mostly just testing out all the possible perks, stats, etc. So, here's one of my personal favorites!

William J. Danninghar was an inventor - much like Wilson. But his interests were more into robots and mechanical stuff. He now finds himself in a strange, unfamiliar place full of creatures beyond his wildest imaginings.

STATS:

-Slower than most characters by just a small bit.

-Is weaker than most characters.

+Starts off with 5 gears and a cane

Average hunger

-Low health

+Very high sanity

+Already knows the Science machine recipes (like Wickerbottom)

+Very slow passive health regen.

+Has a 0.1x armour bonus

+Enters Nightmare Form when sanity is below 45.

Nightmare Form stats (that differ from normal William's)

+150 health

+ Deals more damage

+Replaces science bonus with magic bonus (Prestihatilator recipes become available)

+Gets a cool new voice

-Hunger depletes significantly faster.

You need to craft mechanical what-not (a new item) and a shell for the specific robot to creat your robot. These pieces are found in the Refine tab!

You can use a hammer or wrench to tell your companion to leave you alone and then feed them a carrot (seeds for reapers) or gears to heal them and make them follow you again!

Mechanical Butler:

Controlled by a rabbit

+High health

+Helps mind and chop trees.

+Can heal with carrots

+The controlling rabbit will run out of the robot when it dies

+emits smoke

+Acts as a container.

-slowish movement speed

+Becomes Nightmare Butler when player's sanity is below 100.

Mechanical Reaper:

Controlled by a crow

+Teleports away from combat if attacked

+Can heal with gears

+The controlling crow will fly out of the robot when it dies

+Very fast attack speed

-Modertate-low health

-Low-med damage

Mechanical Brute:

Controlled by a rabbit

+Very high health

+High damage

+Can heal with gears

+The controlling rabbit will run out of the robot when it dies

BRINGY-BACKY-2-LIFE SYSTEM

Works like the meat effigy, but takes less health from William. The normal meat effigy will leave William at full health when built, this will leave him with much more.

When resurrected, player starts off with less sanity and hunger than the Meat effigy.

His speech is currently a slightly modified Wickerbottom speech. This will be changed further in time.

I'm no longer working on the mod. For a little bit, I mean. Need to take a break from the William mod to work on other things (*cough* Starbound *cough*), but I will continue in a bit. I've already planned the next update.

After playing 40 days with this char i can say i like him. I don't like slow chars but this one makes the game kind of interesting thanks to the butlers.

The side of his hurt eye changes as he turns around... So does Wilson look right-handed at some times and on different angles he looks left-handed...

Nope. I was working on it, but it's been temporarily dropped. Mostly because it was 88mb - far too large for the forums or the steam workshop. When I do start working on it, it will have several DLCs to add the more magical stuff.

why doesn't work with ROG DLC?

Because he uses a custom stategraph. He can't bury Webber's skull, use the down feather, add wet fuel to fires, be electrocuted, frozen, or do any DLC action.

Why don't u update it on steam?

Not updating it anywhere. William will be getting no new updates, and possibly no fixes. I simply do not have the time to update it, and I am bored to hell and back of this mod. Not William himself, but this specific mod.
