Someone picked up Cosmic Horrors for 1.5- https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3319844548

@Johny Macabre I agree it's pretty silly. I just updated the about.xml with the 1.5 tag to answer I request in the comment section. But yeah, I wouldn't recommend using this patch given that the main mod isn't updated and likely never will be.

Um, how is this patch for 1.5 when Cosmic Horrors is abandoned at 1.4 and doesn't function on 1.5?

@TurtleShroom: Lovecraft fans are starving, everything you can do would be great.

Even a mod that brings the Horrors back as wild animals, or the clothing would be great.

The Factions, though... THOSE I can fix.

Disconcerting. Sadly, I don't know any C-Sharp, but the rest of the Mod could be decoupled, albeit with great difficulty. For the spawning Events to work, I'd need someone to help me with C-Sharp.

The Cosmic Horror mod unfortunately still relies on JecsTools, a notoriously TPS-heavy and unoptimized bit of code- And Jec themselves has been MIA from Rimworld modding for months now. Just Rimworld, mind you, they've been active playing other games and such at a normal pace, but they've completely abandoned their workshop content by the look of it.

You are correct. Neither the Factions nor the Cthulhu Mod got updated, which is insane to me, because it could have full "Anomaly" support.

@TurtleShroom there you go :) didn't realy need updating tbh. I was planning to update if (and when) the cosmic horror mod gets updated. Afaik it never got updated to 1.5

Do you plan on updating this Mod? I find it really useful in my game.

I do love all the "for my personal use" mods people have shared :)
Might you license the code open source, so others could grab 95% of it and make 1 small change (e.g., making the MiGo matter woody for my own play)?
(I just make mine all LGPL but others have done anything from MIT to CC-by-attribution)

@lilwhitemouse you're welcome ^^. It's a mod for my personal use, I'm happy to see it serves others aswell.

I have seen (insect) chitin as a Woody substance. I wonder about making MiGo matter a woody substance instead of a fabric....

Thanks for making this!

Regarding space limitations for the desc, don't forget your good friend; going "steam description character limit doesn't let me put all info here, so there's more in this discussion [link to discussion]".

Nothing is funnier than insta-taming these guys with the wildspeaker taming psycast. The colony's lead animal handler + wildspeaker psycaster is like a crazy cat lady but for horrors beyond comprehension... also trolls from ESCP trolls... and muffalos. Some horrors may die, but for cosmic horror skin parkas and not seeing my freezer emptied, that is a price this mod makes me very willing to make.

nevermind, I saw. It just so happens RimPy screams about it.

This can work with XML edition, right?

Ah. Don't think I noticed that part anyways...
(nor have I noticed the changes to the hides personally, should check again)
Thanks, anyhow.

@Profilename the very first sentence of my mod description : "This is a small, lightweight patch to tweak Call of Cthulhu - Cosmic Horrors and if present, Call of Cthulhu - Cults." . the reason they aren't present with their own stat grid is because I ran out of writing-space. Steam is arbitrary that way ^^

Well, I don't see in the description anything about... Goat-hide. Or Byakhee Chitin. (both of which have the description of ".") Maybe I should've been more specific.

@ProfileName it's alrdy included. If you have Cults active in your LO, this patch will patch those leathers too.

I don't suppose you could also make one for Cults' stuff?

@NotoriousNix Yeah, it always puzzled me why it was set up this way... bothered me enough to make this patch :p

Fantastic, was wondering why they were basically valued at lumps of iron.

Thanks for the update (and check). Now these things can have value again.

@ProfileName updated!

@ProfileName In theory it shouldn't need an update. I'll test it now with the updated cosmic horrors mod, see if there are any issues. Stay tuned

Wait, will this mod need an update, or is it just value tweaks and it just needs the tag?

Cosmic Horrors just got updated, I don't know if that was actually Jercrell or that's Mllie in the works.

oh nice

@The Grapest Jecrell is most certainly no longer active. Luckily we got an angel called Mllie who descended from heaven to save the day. Without Mllie we'd have lost many more mods.

is Jecrell and Grease still active in the community? be really sad if they arent

@The Grapest I will certainly update it. So far the base mod isn't updated yet either.

will this be updated for 1.4? love the mods

@Wilhelm Wegner glad it's working out :). I realy don't get why in the base mod leather values were so weak. It's like making dragon scales weaker than chicken-hide :p.

It workes like a charm. The leather is now worth being used (y)

yes, just realized it. Thanks tho.

@Wilhelm Wegner yes, absolutely. I removed the hard requirement, meaning you could technically load this mod without either CH mods (this will crash your game likely). However your mod organizer (Rimpy or otherwise) will mention it must be loaded after either base CH mod, or xml edition (don't use both).

quick question just to be sure: This must be loaded AFTER the main mod, right?

@Wilhelm Wegner You're welcome, mate :). I'm likely to use the xml edition myself on my next playthrough ^^ that and the update was real easy to write. enjoy.

othats some fast work. Thanks mate. Not missing out on the new leather is a blast. Much appreciated

@Wilhelm Wegner Mod has been updated. It should work flawlessly with CH Xml edition.

@Wilhelm Wegner : hell, I didn't even know about that mod :p, interesting. I'm fairly confidednt this mod should work with Xml edition, except you'll get a red dependency error. If the author of that mod did not modify ThingDef names (why would he?), and left leathers as they were, it should work.

To make it work I should change dependencies and remove the tech-level patch (apparently he changed the whole factiondef to a new one). let me look into it.

is it possible to make it work with "Cosmic Horrors XML Edition" or would that be a too complex/annoying task?

@[The] Force sure ^^

Well they both show up in your workshop, could I friend you? Maybe get some input on this project me and my friend are working on? He's never touched Rimworld code, but is an experienced coder so he's learning quick, but someone who has touched it (no matter their experience) may be able to answer some questions I can't xD

@[The] Force Am I?? perhaps you're right ^^ or maybe there's other three-legged wolves running around :O.

Hahahah, also damn, I just realized you're the same wolf as the one who made the SCP thing

@[The] Force ^^ this has been bugging me for almost a year... at some point I figured I'd just "fix" it. Glad it could help out others :)

I did not even realize (cause I wasn't paying much attention to stats) and now I'm miffed and also happy this exists

@Three-legged Wolf that's perfect, thanks. cheers
