Did you install a Character Extender ?
One is necessary for any additional species to show at character creation.

help? i installed both of these but neither works when i load it up.. if anyone can tell me what i've done wrong that would help lots thanks

i love that its a fork and a toaster for the genders

The Neki & Mechineki "really cute name btw!" fits perfectly in the Starbound universe!

ah thought i missed something xD
just because the madlads of FU keep developing and stealing from other mods, doesnt mean every modmaker has to do that :P

@Solzucht he's probably expecting the person to update the mod to add new features like a lot of the massive mod makers do (like the one that made FU) when Juni isnt the original dev of this mod and has a note saying so

what update?

when is update&?)

Is there a plan to make a Mechineki version of the Neki Floof mods? I had been considering making one myself, but I'm not that good at pixel art, and I didn't want to make an extra one if you were already planning to make one.

Ah, I see. Thank you for the assistance

It's possible to fix, but it is not something I can do on my end.
Neki and Mechineki both have support for ear rotation as implemented in StarExtensions (by the same author as OpenStarbound), but it seems they chose to implement it differently and consequently break support in OpenStarbound.
Try asking about it on their Discord :)

Might be a shot in the dark... But is there any chance we could get an update to fix the ears floating away from the body with head rotation on the newest openstarbound update? It's the same issue seen on this reddit post (https://www.reddit.com/r/starbound/comments/16l4e9v/how_to_turn_off_the_head_rotation_of/)

Or is there a way for one to fix this manually? Idk. Thanks!

Thanks.

Again, strictly an FU issue. In vanilla you don't respawn at all in Hardcore :)
So the animation for that simply doesn't exist.
I'll PR the fix straight into FU and you should see it fixed on the next FU update.

Theres a respawn animation for survival but im guessing there just wasn't added one for hardcore.

This is a FU-specific issue, I'm guessing that whoever added Mechineki support to FU didn't bother adding a respawn animation for them.

I'll do it myself as soon as I have the time.

Whenever you die in hardcore with this mod it breaks the game. Something to do with the respawn cinematic.

Ah! thank you Juni!

I'm actually considering doing the opposite - making more of the neki-specific stuff usable only by the Neki, for... sanity reasons ^-^

Having said that, you should check out NFOF , it does exactly what you need :)

Hey Juni, if you ever have the chance and are willing to do it, would you be willing to update it to make the race compatable with normal neki furnature? i wish to use the wall bed and such and it calls me insane if i do!

I'm sorry, there's nothing I can do about that - somebody else entirely made those. If anybody wishes to alter them in any way, feel free to PR them into FU directly.

Racial bonuses for FU are almost all wrong compared to description

@ninjared1212 Resistance for poison weapon damage would make more sense, but I feel like a robot/synth should be more resistant to another element maybe, might just be me thinking that way since the immunity will be there but eh.

@Thebloodraven14 i believe the damage resistance still would take affect when applied directly like getting hit with a poison weapon, the immunity is just for the status effect, they have the same name but are distinct

Hey, I saw in-game some stats weren't exactly calculated, or input correctly, don't know if it's this mod, or FU's fault for this, but it adds immunity to poison but also granting resistance to poison by 20/30%, not like the resistance would do much anyways if it were to be left alone.

I genuinely like this mod, only thing i dislike about it is not being able to use the base neki wall bed

Theres one for modded races, cant remember the exact name but neki/mechineki should be covered as i used them functional.

is there going to be a FU ship Addon or in the original mod? bc i cant even find a Neki FU ship mod

Hello, as a lover of cats and robots, I am very glad that this mod exists, thank you very much for this)) but I am tormented by several interests regarding this mod. Regarding the NPCs, I already realized that for now we still have to wait and wait for them. but what about armor and weapons? Neka has her own arsenal, she has her own armor. are there any plans to add armor for mechineki?

Thought as much :) Still cool mod, just have to thing about what to wear when using this race then :D

It's not avoidable because of how Starbound works, unfortunately :(

The ears do not hide when wearing a full helmet-is that intended or not avoidable because they are animated or is that a bug on my side?
Didnt find any mention of it so far, looked also on Neki modpage. So it might be an issue only i experience?

Not that I know of, unless somebody else created a mod that adds Mechi NPCs.

Say can the Mechineki show up as npc's or enemies?

i did alittle bit of testing with the player voice mod, and the mechineki use the default talking sound still

Didn't the original author already add custom sounds?

will you ever add custom Mechineki talking sounds for npcs, such as a robotic meow or somthing. or is that already in the game and i'm just stupid?

Done! :3
Also added all the missing recipes while at it and fixed some other small things

Hello Juni! Yes that is what I am asking for. Please and thank you!~

The Neki had just the vanilla Apex SAIL before, not Cutebound specifically.
I haven't looked at what type of sail Mechineki has and how it's implemented, but if it's based off of a very early version of Neki then I can probably fix it so that it'll use the Cutebound SAIL as long as Cutebound is installed.

That's what you are asking for, right?

Hello Juni, I know I said it on the SFW patch but I just want to say thank you again for fixing it. I also have a question. How difficult would it be to have the cutebound SAIL for this instead of the vanilla one? Like what the Neki mod used to have before you added your own.

You asking it here made me aware of it, so good call. It's caused by the lack of an "includes" line, I've asked the author to add me to the SFW patch as well so I could fix it for them :3

I don't know if it is okay to say this here, but both of the SFW add-on's do not work at all. I tried both of them, (Not at the same time.) and neither one hides the NSFW parts. Sorry if this is the wrong place to say this but there has been no answer on the add-on pages themselves.

I've added support for the StarExtensions head rotation, by popular request ^-^

FU now has mechineki support built-in so there's no need for the patch mod anymore. - Although the race is slightly different from what it originally was.

how do i get these as tenants?

The Neki and Mechineki are different species and completely separate mods, so you can't reasonably expect one to automatically get the features of the other without their respective author(s) adding them and updating their mod(s).

Currently doesn't have access to the Neki crafting station for some reason.

What are the ids for the Neki protectorate clothing? The Meki don't get the outfit in the intro mission.

Hiya, i found my leftover files for the FU patch laying around in my server still. thought id take the opportunity to share them until we get a more proper replacement for the original patch.
