Character Mod Mashing Powers

[Triobian]

Hey, so I'm new to the modding side of dont starve, but not to programming and the like. and after playing around with some of the character mods, i found 3 that i really liked.

Imperious for his base stats and leveling system

http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=366290054&searchtext=imperius

Kyle for his command of an army

Nightmare for his pet terror beak

http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=475888261&searchtext=nightmare

 

So, naturally I wanted to be able to use all three, and after 12 hours of looking through guides across the internet and looking through each individual file across all of them, I've made no progress to actually getting any of them to work on one character. If anyone can help me with making the mod or point me in the direction of tools and guides to make it myself, I'd be very grateful.

The way I'd like the character is Imperius as the model and the character stats, and the pet terror beak from nightmare, and the ability to command the worm army from Kyle. So if you will help, I'd much appreciate it

Oh, and I meant to say this, but im wanting to use this character in dont starve together

The issue here, @Triobian, is that to do this, a lot would have to be re-coded entirely from scratch just to make it work, because the characters are designed for Don't Starve, not Don't Starve Together. I believe Kyle does have a DST version, but I have no idea about the other two, and until they are all ported, it would be impossible unless you found someone with ample time and coding knowledge that they can just give to you. Most people on the forums are here for quick fixes and small tidbits of code help, or crash reports, or that good stuff. There's just not enough time in the world to code an entire character.

@NyctoDarkMatter all three have a dst version, i realize that it would take immense coding otherwise, so iwouldnt of asked unless i had known. after some more attempts on my end, i was able to figure out how the nightmare character worked and now kyle and imperius can have the terror beak pet, however im still wodering how to make  the other two work together, like i said if anybody could even point me in the right direction, such as the tools to look inside the zips and folders and such, id be happy to do it and figure it out, i just dont know what software i need.

so now, the only issue is getting kyle and imperius. im wondering if i can move imperius' code to kyle, since he seems to be the most complex. and see if i cant just alter the code and visual enough to get my result. it shoudl just be a issue of replacing the character model file with the imperius one, so ill try that later

@Triobian Tell ya what. I can help you out. BUT you need a couple of things:
1. If this mod is going to be public, you need to get EACH mod creator's permission. If it's private, that's fine.
2. You'll need all of the files, and will PROBABLY use the Imperius file as a base file, due to the fact that you need BUILD Renaming tools and other such tools if you want the ANIMs and BUILDs (the .zips) to work with other characters.
3. If you have all of that, add me on Steam @.NYCTO. NyctoDarkMatter and make sure to let me know what your Steam username is on here if it is not Triobian.
4. If you have Skype or some other application that allows calling and screen sharing, that will be completely helpful.
 

I'm willing to help but you will need to learn, so I'm going to expect your full attention and knowledge when I am ready to teach you. That's the only way I'm gonna help, since I already have a lot of time going into other projects. Hopefully I'm helpful.

Oh, and no promises it will work... I'm just going off of my best knowledge here.
