oh nyo UwU

uwu, I installed this mod and I'm a furry now

@Cosmosteller Thanks!
framework was used before 1.4 for some offset stuff, but this feature has now been removed. I don't think anyone is still playing on 1.4, so the right thing to do would be to remove that dependency, I guess.
Without the framework, custom gene logos won't display, but disabling VE won't cause any errors

Thank you for the great mod. I have a question: this mod is listed as having a dependency on Vanilla Expanded Framework on the mod page and in the About.xml file, but it seems to work regardless of whether VEF is installed. Would any issues occur if VEF isn’t present?

good to hear. UwU
It's not the first time someone's brought it issue up, so...

ITS WORKING!!! Thank you so much, a small and yet MASSIVE change! Thank you, if I encounter any other issues I will let you know

okay, lets test it out

i hope so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

so... ITS WORKING???

@SiaNKs Okay, I rewrote the Furs as an attachment, and the textures seem acceptable, i guess

And yes, you're right about smooth fur. I made it as a lighter version of yttakin fur. But no masks are used there, only the colour source, so it's more friendly for mixing genes )

@SiaNKs Oh, that makes sense. The thing is, Perfect Body Gene uses the Fur system, like yttakins in vanilla. Just like I do for fur. The problem is that the game only allows one fur layer. Either one or the other. I could overlay the fur, as is done in Outland Genetics, but in 1.5 VE they removed support for offsets and I can't control their size and position - it looks bad. At this stage, I can't do anything about it, I can only choose between Perfect Body and Chest fur, if possible. BUT. VE is currently reworking its framework, and I may find the tools I need there.

+ Smooth Fur takes its color from hair not skin right? Makes logical sense, but want to confirm that, as i saw giving pawns certain color of hair changes color of smooth fur, which is Nice, i like it :)

But yeah, I dont know if you even care about High mates at all, so we might not even see a patch, we can only count on your mercy in that topic...

Malang Retexture for High mate is not working in 1.6 so cant even test that, but im 90% sure its issue of Perfect Body itself not texture of it. I think it will require patch, if thats okay with you?

I might be wrong, but please try to replicate it, download Vanilla races expanded High Mate, Helltaker, character editor.

When Perfect body gene is selected and texture from it is not Applied to character, its applying Fur to it with Skin colour, BUT when perfect body texture is applied, its not even applying Fur at all.

Ok, it was simpler than i thought, The issue is with Perfect Body Gene from High Mate races Expanded. Their different look for bodies disables Fur completely or shows up on thin bodies but in a skin colour.

I think changing models of Perfect Bodies could fix that, like lets say Downloading Malang High Mate Body could fix issue if Fur works with body retexrues, but then "Perfect Body" is retexture itself so if its not working with that, it probably wont with any other re texture.

It migh be issue with Code of Perfect Body gene, and that I cannot change, any ideas what can i do to fix it or test it?

I will still test it with different body retextures

im testing it rn, yeah, without mods it works, my mod list is mainly Vanilla expanded with quality of life features and some additonal content, including more Xenotypes, costmetics like ears tails etc. I will let u know once i find out

@SiaNKs No, that's not normal, but I just tested it and everything works fine for me. I tried creating a pawn from scratch in the editor, as well as adding genes via the Character Editor. Please try running the game with a minimum of mods, maybe there is some kind of conflict?

Is it normal that Chest Fur takes color from body not hair? If so, any plans on changing that?

While making new xenotype i had this problem, everything would be amazing if not the fact its taking skin colour instead of hair, which makes my pawns look dumb...

@turkler Thank you very much! Knowing that someone is actually using these textures makes me happy UwU I hope to do something else in the future

awesome mod, thank you

@Falkirian Thanks! UwU

It still works smoothly i still use it with no problems, your mod is great :D

I hope it still fits, haven't used this mod )

I guess that makes sense. id use the mod but some of the faces were a bit silly, so im using nice faces rn

Thanks!

@Saruman Done. I also added an exclusion tag, now it works with other halo mods (I guess)

@Lusty
So... I'm currently making an update to my xenotypes mode and decided to finally add "Elder" xenotype (based on Lucy and Bel) that may "corrupt" other xenotypes via xenogerm implantation just like vanilla Sanguophage, giving some nice new genes and changing a look. The problem is, there is no way for their genes to supress the Halo genes. Can you add a "No Halo" gene, please?

@Half Baked Vanilla Textures Expanded - [NL] Facial Animation

whats with the faces? what mod is that

@Lusty Thank you！

@快下无影船 you can make a local copy of the mod, drop it in the /mods folder and run it from there. Just edit the .xml files and delete anything you don't need. This may sound complicated, but it's not. You can find a guide on the Rimworld Wiki.
You can even use my textures and make your own mod. Just mention me as the author of the textures if you post it online. Good luck )

Sorry for say this，but excuse me，what should I do if I only like one texture in a gene. I only like a certain horn in the horn gene。Sorry I am not a native English speaker. I am using translation software to write this passage。

@Saruman Yeah, I was planning on doing something like android gens, maybe as an addon to VRE androids. But not right now. There are still goat minions Kappa

Well, here it is:
https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3413688260

Finished my work of factions mod. Gonna release it, I dunno, probably today or tommorow.
Also, any hope for possible Subject 67/Skeledemons-based genes? Sharply dressed demon girls are nice, but sharply dressed homicidal buff demonic dude would be nice as well.

Ah shame, well not much can be done about that. Thanks for trying tho, that's super awesome of you

@Tonic
I did my best >_> It looks strange without animation.

@Saruman Wow, great job! I can't wait for the factions to demongirls gang up on me ^_^

It is finally done. The first mode that adds xenotypes is ready.
https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3395078682
(The second one, that adds factions, is still work in progress, through it's mostly a bug fixing and working on description)

Wouldn't it just be the same as a halo? I wasn't expecting animation lol

@Tonic
No, as far as I know, it requires custom coding. Sorry.
A similar gene seems to be in "Outland - Genetics"

Any thoughts on adding a little floating hearts gene?

@Lusty
I've confirmed the fix. Thanks!

@Saruman
oh, both mods? Interesting :3

@SpacerGorisan
it's a really weird bug, indeed. Fixed it, I suppose

Well... I'm pretty much finished my work both mods. The only thing that left is preview for them. I hope I'll manage to post them before the New Year.

I encountered a rare situation, when I put it together with " RimSaves ", the icon logo of "Helltaker Cosmetic Genes" appeared on the Rimsaves Save/Load screen. haha

There seems to be a conflict in the mod icon paths.

@Saruman Wow, that sounds great!

I suppose I should inform y'all that I've almost finished the xenotypes and factions mods (need to finish some pawns). Yup, I've got that far that I've decided to make a whole factions out of character archetypes from short game about sharply dressed demon girls.
Three unique factions to be exact.
