Custom Beard Help

[4g3t1t]

I can't get my beard to work. It crashes the game. I'm using Wilson's beard and code. I made it custom by coloring it yellow and used the TEXtool to make the zip with Wilson's atlas-0, anim & build. I can't figure out why it won't work. Any ideas?

And, is the beard.lua in the components folder needed?

what exactly did you change from Wilson's beard.zip? You need to swap out the atlas-0.tex with your new atlas-0.tex, and use BuilderRenamer to change the internal name of build.bin to something new and unique

i unzipped it and used TEXTool to save atlas-0. then in photoshop i made the beard yellow, used TEXCreator to save it back to a tex file, zipped the 3 files and renamed it mm_beard. i copied the code from wilson.lua. in my character's lua i added mm_beard because i've seen that in a couple other character mods. i figured it would work because it's all Wilson's stuff.

i've never hear of BuilderRenamer. where can i get it? and in this case, being that it's Wilson's files, is it necessary?

thanks for your help.

[Aquaterion]

idk where u can dl it but here's mine

BuildRenamer.zip

[4g3t1t]

thanks!

btw--in the dst data folder there's a components folder with a beard.lua file. do you know if that's needed for insulation or does Wilson's code already have it?

thanks for your help.

thanks for your help.

there's a default value which is used in the sum:

CurrentBeardStage(1-16) x 15 x InsulationFactor(1)

You can only change the InsulationFactor by writing this in your character's master_postinit function

inst.components.beard.insulation_factor = 1 --change 1 to any multiplier

Ah, then i did 1 thing right. I found that in Webber's lua.

My character is working, but the beard doesn't grow/show.

If it's not too much trouble, can you see if this is right?

local common_postinit = function(inst)
    --bearded (from beard component) added to pristine state for optimization
    inst:AddTag("bearded")

    -- Minimap icon
    inst.MiniMapEntity:SetIcon( "mm.tex" )
end

local function OnResetBeard(inst)
    inst.AnimState:ClearOverrideSymbol("beard")
end

--tune the beard economy...
local BEARD_DAYS = { 4, 8, 16 }
local BEARD_BITS = { 1, 3,  9 }

local function OnGrowShortBeard(inst)
    inst.AnimState:OverrideSymbol("beard", "mm_beard", "beard_short")
    inst.components.beard.bits = BEARD_BITS[1]
end

local function OnGrowMediumBeard(inst)
    inst.AnimState:OverrideSymbol("beard", "mm_beard", "beard_medium")
    inst.components.beard.bits = BEARD_BITS[2]
end

local function OnGrowLongBeard(inst)
    inst.AnimState:OverrideSymbol("beard", "mm_beard", "beard_long")
    inst.components.beard.bits = BEARD_BITS[3]
end

local master_postinit = function(inst)
inst:AddComponent("beard")
    inst.components.beard.insulation_factor = TUNING.INSULATION_MED
    inst.components.beard.onreset = OnResetBeard
    inst.components.beard.prize = "beardhair"
    inst.components.beard:AddCallback(BEARD_DAYS[1], OnGrowShortBeard)
    inst.components.beard:AddCallback(BEARD_DAYS[2], OnGrowMediumBeard)
    inst.components.beard:AddCallback(BEARD_DAYS[3], OnGrowLongBeard)

    -- choose which sounds this character will play
    inst.soundsname = "woodie"
    
    -- Uncomment if "wathgrithr"(Wigfrid) or "webber" voice is used
    --inst.talker_path_override = "dontstarve_DLC001/characters/"

    -- Stats

Something is definitely wrong. I tried using Wilson's beard and that doesn't work. I copied the code as-is and no beard grows. I have no ideas.

[Aquaterion]

I'm not sure.. did you use buildrenamer to rename your build to mm_beard? did you add the asset at the top? Is this all the code you have t or did you just not copy it all? Also the insulation factor should be somewhere around 1-4, you made it over 100, which is way too high

Thanks so much for your help.

I tried using buildrenamer and added it under ghost_mm_build.zip, but the beard didn't grow. I thought it may be because I changed the color, so I got curious and decided to go simple and use Wilson's beard and code. It still didn't grow. I'm obviously doing something wrong. I just don't know what.

Here's the updated code using Wilson's beard:

1. yes that's the insulation im talkin bout

2. what do you mean by added under ghost_mm_build? The beard should be its own zip. called mm_beard.zip, with the atlas-0.tex containing the new beard textures, and build.bin being a copy of wilson's beard's build.bin but renamed to mm_beard internally

[4g3t1t]

In the assets under Asset( "ANIM", "anim/ghost_mm_build.zip" ), I added  Asset( "ANIM", "anim/mm_beard.zip" ).

I did exactly that. The beard still doesn't grow.

[4g3t1t]

I zipped it in case you'd like to look at the complete mod.

Thanks so much for all your help.

mm.zip

(The head isn't correct, I'm fixing that now)
