I have no idea how to post videos

 

use the "media" code in the Special BBcode list (third icon from the top right).

or just type it and past the link between:

[media]video[/media]

Yus.

 

Yus... it's too turd-like? lol

[debugman18]

Working on the Regal Shelmet for the Snailking loot.

 

 

What do you think?

 

too turd-like?

Nice! And I actually think the turd shape adds to its character.

 

Edit: Turdicorn helmet!

Maybe a few spikes, but otherwise, I like it!

[lifemare]

Thanks for the feedback guys!

Going to finish the remaining sprites!

Be back soon with presents!!!

Good advice! Is this spiky enough Lord?

 

"Damn! Where are my Q-Tips?! There's still some slime in this shell!"

 

Download: Regal_Shelmet_v1.0.rar (different art, same properties as the regular shelmet, until simplex can address it)

Archive contains Don't Starve folder structure. Just replace your "data" folder contents with those provided.

Backup copies of vanilla "inventoryimages.tex" and "hat_slurtle.zip" are included. So you can roll back to those by just deleting the modded files and removing the text "_bak" from the backup files.

It may be just me but I think it looks a bit like a giant thing of manure.

It's not just you...

I'm half expecting Simplex asks me to scrap this idea... :^P

 

One more screenshot with a dropped Shelmet and inventory icon:

Still... nothing to do today, and he hasn't been around... Haven't had a decent idea for a Snailking Mound yet, i'm letting it sit on the crockpot for a while longer... Might aswell tackle these other little things.

Next on the list is a Snailking armor and a Snailking sword.

Choose wisely:

 

(art is sloppy, edges are nasty, just vote on the idea)

If the edges are just nasty, I prefer A.

Know this is kinda late, and inconvenient, but, I think the hat might look a bit less manure-ey if it didn't become so thin near the top.  Make it a bit more conic, like the actual shell on the SK.

Maybe if it had less of a "wood" texture, it'd look less manurey?

@lifemare

I've really been kind of away lately. My ds modding time went into working in my TEX converter, since I thought a proper release was long due.

Anyway, all the new art is looking great! Even the turd one!

But I think there was a mix up in the snailking atlases you sent me. These are the ones in the RAR:

snailking_build

snailking_death01_build

snailking_death02_build

And yes, it's not that simple to stick a new anim in a mod. Replacing a texture inside an existing one is, but adding a brand new requires both renaming the build and declaring it in the prefab's assets (i.e., inside its script). I added a new options to allow choosing both the base anim and the death one, adding the new builds (after renaming and declaring) to the mod, even though I feel there was this mix up I mentioned.

The repo page is here: https://github.com/nsimplex/snailking

I told you that atlas was perfect :^P

Sorry lol. Don't know what happened there. 

 

I'll send the correct one to git in a moment.

 

 

PS: Great job on that Unix TEX converter!

I'm sending the rest of the art up to git.

Regarding the loot, i've noticed debugman18 uses separate TEXs for additional inventory images in the U&A mod, instead of modding the whole inventory atlas. I should be doing the same thing, so that the SK mod doesn't overwrite any vanilla files, but i have no idea what specs those TEXs should have.

Inventory images are all standard sized. You can take any existing inventory tex and change it to something else, just be sure you're loading it through the atlas. And of course the atlas and tex have to be declared in the assets of the prefab.

Are you sure there's not something off with the base build as well?

Oh, and you may notice rc.lua is not on the repo. I didn't put it there because configurations should be local, with each contributor having their own. In particular, pulling the repo shouldn't overwrite them. To get a base rc.lua, copy rc.template.lua (in the repo).

Did you use/try it?

Yes, an inventory image is a 64x64 image. You can either use a separate texture file for each, or you can bundle related ones together. The atlas is a file specifying how to slice it into the components (the game just uses one big file and atlas specifying how to cut it).

Well, i'm stumped simplex!

I love me some Dada, but that is totally unexpected and i can't figure out why:

No! Windows user here... Just a compliment on having finished it!

Thanks for the info!

@lifemareGah! I though we were using beefalo_shaved_build as a base for the standard build. I'll fix it right now.

Phew!!! I'm glad the problem is that simple!

I was starting to despair a bit...

Fixed. But the death anim (for death01) is still not working. The body parts just get invisible. You're using beefalo_shaved_build.zip as the base, right? How are you doing your testing?

Wait, I just realized the issue. The hair growth animation should be played in the death build, based on the atlases. I'm lost here. I thought the intention was to use one build to do the hair growth, then switch it and play the death anim. That's why the base build was using the beefalo_shaved_build. I need you to update me on how you meant it.

After realising this, I'm guessing it should be:

[*]Upon death, immediately switch to death01 and play the hair growth anim sequence.

[*]When that's done, switch to death02 and play the death anim.

Is that correct? If so, I'll make the adjustments right now.
