(Moved) Argonians + Generic Bellies

Old Post:

I wasn't sure if my previous post was in the right section so I'm just gonna... scoot it on over here. My bad! I figure this board is a bit more appropriate for what I'm doing anyways: which is creating sprites and content.

Speaking of that: I went ahead and made a fully-animated and functional piece of gear to shove on your legs! Have some GIFS:

Here's a preview of the scaled/scute variant I'm working on.

^{(Ignore the misplaced head; I goof'd)}

I hope you folks like them! I'll probably continue to post progress pics and gifs as I go.

The way you animated the bellies is super cute! Good lizards you have here.

As for your earlier questions, I can't say much about the actual logistics of it, but while I don't think that anybody's made Argonians for StarBound, I feel like they could be modded in like any other custom race. And the custom belly clothing, technically most of the pred tenants have an alternate "full" clothing sprite that you can spawn in or earn from them, but not all of them fit vanilla sprites very well. I think it's been mentioned in the past that there's no official player belly armor, and that most people just use the NPC pred ones that fit better.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Can't really help you with how to add this stuff in but that's my understanding of where the mod's at.

Thanks! I spent like all of the other night trying to make it sway and wobble nicely.

Also, I just copy-pasted and edited another pants file and it was good to go for the most part! The only bump in the road was making it dyeable, which requires manually entering hex codes for colours and their replacements in the code...

Here's an in-game pic of it-- it's basically finished and could be added but I want to complete the couple other things I'm making first.



Also, I messed around with some programming stuff using StarCheat to get these colours on both my character and the belly. Turns out you can just tell the game to replace x with y colours on dyeable clothes and body parts, which is really nice for making things look perfect.

the alternate "full" belly that some preds have is because they are a multi-vore pred, meaning they can "eat" 2 or more npcs/players, an example would be the wolf and fox preds which can eat 2 prey targets, while the green dragon and goodra can eat up to 3, as for the "armor", technically one could give armor stats to the outfits but for them to act the same way as with the npc's, in that when eating something it automatically changes to having a full belly, is... unknown if possible or not.

there's an ingame parameter you can use when spawning things in to change the colors too, that or you could just spawn in a dye and see how that turns out, not sure on the specifics of said parameter use, my 'mentor' knows more, but it also works on npc's with anything you can change the color such, quite alot of things you can do via ingame commands if you take the time to... well... write it... dunno if it would be any easier or flexible then using starcheat.

but nice work on the sprites too, i feel like this would also fit the kazdra really well too due to the similarity between them being dragons and the argonians being lizards.

Took an in-game recording. Pardon the jank, my recording software isn't kind with colour counts.



Additionally, here's a screenshot of my colour-editing escapades for clothes. Heavily recoloured Trainee Shirt and Toucan Loincloth!

This is fantastic work.

Wow, it's been... nearly a year now. Excuse my absence, I was pulled away by a really stressful fourth year BA program and this kind of fell to the wayside. Thanks again for the praise, y'all, ahahaha

I don't know if this mod's still kicking or what, but if things get rolling again I wouldn't mind working on this more as a proper inclusion if Sheights is cool with it. I had some variants planned that I'd like to get back to, such as scutes (belly scales), one with some fluffs & a belly button.

First of all, nice work; secondly, AFAICT mod progress is still basically halted, but at the very least Sheights isn't completely dead - would definitely still be worth talking to them about it.
