BubaDuba Posted June 15, 2019 Share Posted June 15, 2019 Hey, I'm having trouble figuring out by what you mean by "Downloading a mod". I want to make a mod from scratch, and I have virtually no coding skills. Is there any way you can help me with that? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HiddenRealm Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 So, I've come to notice an issue when using GIMP to edit the face files, (And other pngs), where it seems to not like the exported images, despite having opened the original sample ones, editing over top of it, never cropping or changing it's literal dimensions, and exporting over top of the file again, it seems to not like this at all. I'm just not sure if there's any other way to edit these pngs without somehow causing it to not want to be compiled? Here's what the compiler says when attempting this: The last part, where it successfully compiles, is where I replaced all of the images I had edited, and of course it works fine then.

Also regarding my issue earlier, I basically just took all of the edited images into Paint.net and then saved them from that, and now everything is working, so something about how GIMP exports png might cause issues with the compiler.

Roastedoranges Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 Is there a video walkthrough for the DST edition one, or do I just follow the same way the older walthrough does? I've been having issues in making my mod, it won't explain to me why the mod does not work, and even the logs don't say anything, I really hope there will be an up-to-date video, though! ;-; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enderia Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 When I'm following everything it replaces esctemplate with charactername in 71 files, not 33. The first time it worked normally but when I tried to do second mod everything went wrong in both mods, I don't know what happened, I've done everything in the same way.

Logan601 Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 Hi, Thanks for the tutorial. I just have one problem though, Whenever I try to start up a world with the mod enabled, it will crash, I checked the logs and one of the lines it has confuses me. It would say: "error loading module 'speech_Logan' from file '../mods/Logan the Tech-Savvy\scripts\speech_Logan.lua':" and "[string "cannot OLDFILEACCESSMETHOD @../mods/Logan the Tech-Savvy\script..."]:392: unexpected symbol near '/'" Do you know any way to fix this?

MimPlays Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 I followed the video, and the text guide. It says it found 21 instances and 1 instance of esctemplate to change to my character name. Then i save and open the modmain and everything still says esctemplate When I run the search again it says 0 instances of esctemplate are found but they are still in the modmain file. Did all the other steps and cant open the compiler :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foxsforo Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 For each new person, I would like to tell you the following: 1.- Although this template is outdated, it works perfectly in DS (I still haven't tried anything in DST) 2.- If you have problems, this link could help you 3.- And if you're done with art and want to add special objects or features to your character, this other link will help you 4.- And in addition to being updated (supposed), this guide will also help you if you are modifying in MAC This is the best I could rescue after reading each comment for hours. I hope it serves. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaniloSuzuki Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 For the character appears in game is it obrigatory to create some big-port, mod-icon, etc? Or just the sprites? Cuz I'm done with the sprites, checked on Spriter, and when i compile, update the mod, and try to create my char, it won't appear in game =/ Can anyone help?

YetiCake98 Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 Ok so everything went well on steam, the compiler, the game even loaded in which is amazing, first time I’ve gotten a modded character to actually load in. but the only problem with my character when they load in? the character doesn’t appaear to exist. none of their character art that makes them, the images or whatever the best term for it would be-are there. Yes the character talks, examines things in the environment with the voice I’ve chosen for them-but they Don’t physically appear like everything else as there’s just a shadow where they should be. Can someone help me out here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FableHaven005 Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 I'm trying to make my character's damage go up when his sanity goes down. my current code for that is: -- Damage multiplier (optional) if inst.components.sanity.current <=31 then inst.components.combat.damagemultiplier = 1.5 elseif inst.components.sanity.current <=11 then inst.components.combat.damagemultiplier = 2 end Am I doing something wrong?

Pangu90 Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 Hi everyone! I'm new to modding any games but thanks to this tutorial, I managed to modify the sample character to my liking. I even went down the long road of editing the speech file's EVERY SINGLE LINE. The easy part is done, I still have to add a custom perk or two and editing the looks. And this is where my problems start... I'm no artist, I can barely draw a straight line, let alone a complete cartoon character. I don't know any art programs, I have downloaded GIMP but I have zero idea how it works. I'd like to play as a hairy caveman who wears furs and has two horns on his head. I've even tried downloading Woodie's character from somewhere because he needs less editing. I don't really care about anything, as long as he looks like how I just described him. Can anyone, who has some spare time help me out here and draw him for me? Also, I'd like him to have an axe as a starting weapon. I still need to code that, but if anyone has the time to help me draw it, I'd really appreciate it. I'd like him to have a bronze/golden (doesn't really matter) double axe where one side is a lot bigger than the other. Sort of like a halberd without the spike. I'm still trying my best, but it took me 1 hour to make a black triangle out of the sample pigtail... I feel lost and I have so much work in the character's personality... Thanks for reading this!
