Creating character with different template?

[itachipirate]

I want to make a pigman playable character. But after looking at the atlas for pigmen in the game, the format is a completely different template from what a normal playable character would be. Would I have to move the images around to fit the template, or can I define a whole new template?

I just copied the animation file for the pigman and tried to create a mod using it, there was an issue with having two build.bin files being loaded with the same name, so I changed the name with HxD and now the character will load fine but the textures aren't being loaded at all.

Ok, so umm

 

The first thing is you will probably need a new name for the pigman, so not knowing your name I would suggest piggydude as a place holder.

 

You would probably need the pigman build, anim, and lua files

 

If you started with the pigman.lua prefab, you'd see the local files you'd need if it was a non-playable pigman. The first problem I can see is that the pigmen don't seem to have the same range of animations as a player character. The next problem is that most of the code in the lua is for the npc pigman, so a lot of that would need to be mended.

 

So if you used Dleo's template, you would have to do a lot of same steps, plus figuring out how to make the adaptions.

So I am sorry I can't help, I have a similar interest though in the Gobbler's data, so I will keep an eye on this thread.
