How to make an item.

I found this tutorial on how to make space stage items.
http://www.buzzsphere.net76.net/3_7_How ... -Item.html

This should probably be copied here so it doesn't disappear.

There are several other tutorial at:

Re: Firearms mod?

I've seen the references to block, but I thought that was just creature stage health.
In any case, block isn't an attack choice, so I don't have a clue on how to add a new attack button (so you could have attacks 1-5 instead of 1-4).

Here is a link to version 2:

This fixes an error. The new version only rotates bases and roofs.

Re: Firearms mod?

You can probably change the missile object so it has a different appearance. But you won't be able to make it so that it doesn't home in on the target and always hit. I don't think you can create an attack that the target could dodge.

Re: Fireball spit and flaming spit parts! Must See!!!

I've not looked at the source, but there are 8 different parts that give you spit. Try putting all 8 on a creature to find out which one has the modded animations.

Re: Power level

The warrior captain parts have an orange adjust handle that allows you set the power level of the warrior part from 1 to 3. Could we change that to 1 to 6 and then added our modded warrior powers to level 4-6 so that player captains can have the special powers but NPC captains don't get them (becaus...

Re: Fireball spit and flaming spit parts! Must See!!!

They are modifications of existing creature level parts. After install the mod, you will need to create a new creature using the parts. They may not appear on creatures you have already created that have spit parts. This is because the graphics/aniamtions are stored in the cache files. Editing a cre...

Power level

Davo,

You showed me the code that corresponds to the different power levels for warrior parts.
Do you have any ideas on how to change a part to have more than 5 levels?

Or how to add a power adjustment handle on a part that doesn't currently have a power handle?

Re: Modding the trader parts

I got the trader parts to work ok. JumpJet is really fun with 1/2 or 1/4 energy. It makes you launch into space like iron man. I'd still like to see if you can make one captain part have a different power. I'm not sure the solution is redirecting the power to a new creatureabilities file, or redirec...

Davo,

It might be fun to change the call animation on to the dragon breath.

Modding the trader parts

Davo, I've tried the redirect to a different parent trick on the trader parts and I get really odd behavior and all I did is redirect to new parent file without making any changes: Jump Jets put me in ultra high altitude and it too over 5 minutes to float down to the ground. I'll post the mod when g...

Re: Paint Mod

Not replace, but add (just like C&C and GA added paint options).
And if you can add cell paints, you might be able to add vehicles paints.

Re: Paint Mod

I really like mods that extend the editors AND create creations that are shareable. From what I can tell, mods that using the existing spore parts can often be shared and included in adventures (even when those downloading the adventure don't have the mod installed). It is also easier to use existin...

Re: Changing abilities

In your work with the editors, is there a location that indicates what abilities a part has?

Maybe we can edit the mind meld *part* and redirect it to a different creature ability (instead of trying to mod/redirect the creature ability to do something else).

Davo, 1) You showed me how to change the attributes of an existing part by copying the existing file in creatureabilitiesxxx to a new file, editing the new file, and redirecting the old file to the new file by changing the parent to point to the new file (instead of the creatureabilitytemplate). 2) ...
