[EXAMPLE REQUEST] Nightmare Monster

[Rosten]

Hey, I'd like to know if any of you expert modders around here would be kind enough to make us newbs a example for nightmare creatures? i've never really seen any been  added, and i'd like to see some examples up so we can start seeing new nightmarish creations from this community

[HoneyHam]

Wait, do you mean more shadow creatures?

[NikMik]

My character mod adds a new nightmare creature that fights for the player when summoned.

 

it's pretty much a Terror Beak but with no feet, lots of eyes, spirals on it's back, and a big hand for a face.

 

 

I call it the Terror Claw!

 

And this it's unfinished model. I have updated it since the ScreenShot was taken.

 

I was actually planning on it just being a giant hand - but because I used the Terrorbeak as a base, it made a big, ugly square hole in the texture where the Terrorbeak's eye is, so I decided to just give him lots of eyes!

What crafting tab is the gun and the shadow monster in? i've gotten a alchemy and shadow manipulator and haven't seen it, or have they not been added yet?

I'll be uploading the update tomorrow.

Ah, i'll make sure to update it, and add that monster to my armyy of two! (soon to be 3)

[Rosten]

It'll be sort of alright, but what im looking for is a barebones shadow monster, something like the crawling horror, just a basic shadow monster that appears when your sanity is low, in mod form, for modifying and adding stuff

It'll be more than an army of 3. You can summon however many of them you want. They last 9 seconds after being summoned by the magical gun. But shooting it also drains sanity. So be careful, if you don't want to go insane.

 

Also, these last checks to make sure it's all good are almost impossible. The modmain is so hard to navigate.

Just like to let you know, a little story, and a bit of a bug

So, i was pretty confident a bit ago, i was exploring the caves with a butler and a reaper, i found the ruins and went into them, (first time to) so, when i went in there, I got in a fight, and died, resurrected and ran back to the hole to go get my stuff, however, when i went back to the hole, my automatons didn't recognize me, even when the bats attacked them they just stood there, i was planning to use them to aid my escape through the caves to obtain my items, and since they wouldn't follow me in, i when down in the caves to hopefully get my items back w/o their aid and promptly died, is this a bug or intentional?

 

TL;DR Went in caves, died, automatons didn't follow me again for some reason, went in again, died again

In the next update, you'll be able to give them their favourite food (Rabbit-controlled robots like carrots and cooked carrots and the Reaper likes seeds) they'll follow you again. But in the currently uploaded version, they're supposed to die and drop their items when you die.

You might want to look at it for ruins and caves, because all they did was re-appear at the cave entrance just sitting there, not reacting to a single thing

[NikMik]

There's no point to it. In the next update, you'll be able to go back to them and give them food so they'll follow you again. And they don't react to anything. They'll only attack what you order them to attack. This will also be changed in the next update.
