Adding the new armors to outfitters.
I was playing around in Sporemaster yesterday, and I was wondering if there is by chance a way to add some of the darkspore parts(The armor and masks in particular) to the outfitters. Thanks in advance. EDIT: Also, how can I add "extra" abilities? In sporemaster if I open DI I can see prop files for new spit levels, etc... How are those added? Is it just a matter of opening the unpacked file in explorer and creating new XMLs or is it more involved?

Is this a mod request, or are you asking someone to teach you how to do it...?

The latter. If it can be done using sporemaster then I can probably make the changes myself if someone can tell me how.

Jokes aside, the "tribeaccesories_editor_palette~" folder (hash "#406B6BCA") holds the key. The only file present by default, "#9963824C.prop.xml", should look something like this:
Code: Select all
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<properties>
<keys name="palettePalettePages">

Re: Adding the new armors to outfitters.
Thanks! I'm gonna try this out tonight. I made an attempt the other day to change the assembled content path from AccessorizedCreaturesTribal to Creatures but it didn't do anything. Thanks again for your help!

I'm not sure that property is even used in the final game, I suspect it might be a leftover. I could be wrong though.cammando205 wrote:I made an attempt the other day to change the assembled content path from AccessorizedCreaturesTribal to Creatures but it didn't do anything.

Re: Adding the new armors to outfitters.
Forgot to ask: What would I have to do differently if I want to make this for the DI9 stable version? Not that 9.r is bad, but I have some symptoms of OCD when it comes to graphic and animation glitches so I've been using the DI9 Stable version while I wait for the next beta release.

Re: Adding the new armors to outfitters.
Don't worry, I won't ask you to sift through file names for me. If my comment was hurtful or pushy in any way you have my apologies. I like the component system by the way.

Normally I'd be happy to, but not when I would be shooting myself in the foot in doing so.cammando205 wrote:Don't worry, I won't ask you to sift through file names for me.

Re: Adding the new armors to outfitters.
I'm glad you're not upset. I must have done something wrong because I followed the steps you outlined and it didn't work. I made it for DI9r since your original instructions use it. My "File Tree" in sporemaster looks like this(Show only modified files is checked):
animations~
part_models_mineral
part_models~
part_skin_textures~
#406B5BCA
-ArmorOutfitter.xml
-#9963824C.prop.xml
"ArmorOutfitter.xml" is the file that contains the changes, the other one is unaltered.

Re: Adding the new armors to outfitters.
Actually I think I messed up - the above instructions only apply to the Villager Outfitter. I'll get you the other hashes ASAP. In the meantime, there shouldn't be any untouched files in the mod, so I recommend that you remove the original file.

Re: Adding the new armors to outfitters.
Ah. So my file tree would only include the modified version? Anyway I switched over to 9.r after I found a way to remove the part of it that's altering the bite graphic.

Re: Adding the new armors to outfitters.
I should probably mention: The original file has hashes rather than lettered names when I open it.

Re: Adding the new armors to outfitters.
Yes, no need to include an unedited file. Ever. Unless you're purposefully trying to override other mods, which you should really never set out to do except in very specific circumstances.cammando205 wrote:Ah. So my file tree would only include the modified version?

Re: Adding the new armors to outfitters.
Well for some reason it still isn't working. I removed the unedited file and tried multiple load orders but for some reason it still doesn't seem to do anything.

Also here are the names and hashes I forgot to give you earlier, for the other Outfitters:

Downloads. I named the package file "ArmorOutfitter".

Oh it is. Downloads is where I saved the initial package.
