Fantastic!

Thx in advance!

Updated to 1.6.

Apparently, no changes were necessary.

If you encounter any issues please comment below

1.6？

Mod's been updated to hopefully fix the fully healed bug.

i love that you made them aliens! ever since the kijin went the way of xenotypes i was worried others would decide to do so too, but you are keeping the tradition alive. You are doing your part!

thank you!

Updated to 1.5. Didn't test it much, so be sure to report any errors you find.

update ?

Thanks for the clearance and there is no need to be sorry, no disappointment happend :)
Im fully understand your reasoning and get it.
Im fine with your races and like them the way they are :)

Sure it would be fun to tinker with some genes with those races and create some interessing hybrids but hey, it is what it is :)
Enough other stuff to tinker with.


Im happy your mods will get updates for 1.5 and i can continue playing with those races again :)
Until then, there is enough other new stuff in this dlc to explore and keep me busy.
Thanks for you response and have a great day :)

Best regards

@Teax
To your first question - You are correct, the term xeno does in fact mean alien - I will fix this error in the description to refer specifically to xenohumans.

To answer your second question - No

The issue is I no longer play RimWorld. I only upkeep my personal mods out of respect for the subscribers, and bcs I care about my mods. (I will update the races to 1.5 when i find time.)

To clear up more of my reasoning:
Biotech works on the principle of changing human pawns with texture additions. This makes it difficult to turn my races into xenohumans, because they have unique heads and features (they were not designed to be modelled from humans). I am sure there are clever ways to go around this, but it goes against what the original intention since, once again, these races are meant to be aliens from outer space, not a biologically modified human.

Sorry to disappoint.

@ILuvSilicon,
Greetings my friend, i like your race mods and in your FAQ you got 2 reasons for not making a biotech version. First of all, aliens are xenos :) xeno is just the greek workd for alien :)
Second one is you dont own the biotech dlc, here is my question, would you make a biotech version if you got your hands on biotech? :)

Best regards

@Virlux
It shouldn't cause any major errors other than faction bases and pawns disappearing.

However, please let me know what errors in particular you are experiencing. It could be an oversight on my end or an incompatibility with another mod on yours.

What errors is it causing?

Can I remove this from a play through? Seems to cause quite a bit or error in my logs

Okay. I just thought it would be better safe than sorry.

@TurtleShroom
I checked the art resource of rimworld for the baby texture and didn't find it, if it produces errors, pls post your log, otherwise I don't believe it exists

The Baby Texture actually does exist, but it doesn't have to be anything special. Just copy one of your choosing.

The mod was updated to fix some issues with biotech, please keep reporting any more errors you might encounter.

@TurtleShroom
I added a basic child texture, It should no longer produce errors. Baby texture apparently doesn't actually exist, its likely just a resized child texture. Thanks for reporting the issue.

I only have the Cruttuns, but I'll let you know how that turns out.

@TurtleShroom
Thank you for the tip, I'll look into correcting it for all my races, When its done let me know if it works, since i can't really test it since i don't know biotech.

Hey dude, I just wanted to let you know that your Cruttuns are causing errors because they lack Baby and Child Textures. With the introduction of the "Biotech" Mod, races need to have those even if you don't have the Expansion Pack.

You added support for the Baby and Child Body Types like you were supposed to, but you forgot to add the Textures for them[/b] !

To add support for it, you don't even need to own the EP!

First, go to your Body Textures and duplicate the files: one needs to say "Naked_Baby_X", and the other needs to say "Naked_Child_X". Make them in the three normal cardinal directions.

It isn't HARs I just had that confirmed by the author. He placed instructions back in Nov in order for other mod authors to use in order to not have that happen. It is up to the authors making race mods based on HARs to correct them. Also, he also confirmed that HARs is compatible with Biotech.

Damn that's sad, came here to see why an error was popping when I created one of these for my starters. Biotech and hars breaking alot of the best mods/races out there. That's sad man, and I JUST got Biotech too :/

Mod updated to fix the human color issue. (Not tested with biotech)

these things are pachycephalosaurus beetle goblins and i love them

That's a shame. Are there any plans for a compatibility patch?

Yeah, these won't work with biotech unfortunately..

Nvm, I realise the entirety of Humanoid Alien Races breaks biotech. I thought I would leave my comment here if it can help with future bug fixes

Great mod, but there seems to be a bug with the Biotech DLC, where a member of this race has been assigned the 'Genie' xenotype, and they have a gray square for a body. I found them through a slave trader, which might be the reason why they got the xenotype when they weren't supposed to. I do have a lot of mods, so it could just be a mod incompatability, but I assume the its caused by the xenotype, since it forces the pawn to have a thin body type, but the Cruttun race doesn't have its own 'thin' body type. Instead, it just shows a gray square. It also causes the Character Editor UI to freeze the game when opened.

I'd love a xenotype for these, HAR breaks biotech

@Kokorocodon
Biotech is for making xenohumans. These are their own race, they probably won't be available for genetic engineering of biotech, but they should not conflict.

Mod was updated to 1.4, didn't have time to test anything so feel free to report bugs you find and I'll try to fix everything when I find the time.

will they conflict with biotech?

downloaded these for a human xenophobic slaver faction and i'm in love, not another ordinary comedic races like hundreds of others these actually fit with the aesthetic of the game. i'm tempted to do some artwork on them but i hope someone beats me as i'm awful lmao.

@Psyra

I was about to say the same thing. Went to a restaurant the other day and when I asked for some croutons on the side everyone turned around an looked at me with horrified eyes. Took a while to explain that it was just my accent, but I just left afterwards due to the awkwardness. Though now I do wonder what would Cruttun meat taste like on a Caesar Salad... Crab, perhaps?

TIL: Not to be confused with croutons. These guys are *terrible* as a salad topping.

An original race mod that fits the sci-fi aesthetic and isn't another furry race? Thank you!

Kinda reminds me of the movie "Splice"

Dont know if thats good or bad

Great artwork.

@Mr. Mauer Senior
CE compatibility might come after all 4 races are released. Until then, anyone is free to make a patch i can then implement. His name will then be added into the credits section unless he asks not to be included.

no ce fo :'D

@science team
you could say they are a crab/bug hybrid

Mm, excellent. I love seeing new alien race mods on the workshop that aren't from some game or fandom that I either don't know or play, or that doesn't fit with the RimWorld universe well... it's awesome to see a race that's created and added just for the game! Grabbing it, thanks.

yo are deeez bug people?

@jimmyal
soon

simple, unique, and no furry shit.

i wish more humanoid alien races were like this

pog

Not bad mate. Kinda makes me want to do another stellaris run now.

@B.random
They are based on one of the anthropoid races from stellantis.
