Nope, I'm just very busy.

One of the drives I was keeping stuff on has died, too. It's a mess lol
Starbound is still one of my favorite games, and I know I have to at least finish my incomplete mods.

has this been abandoned?

For more colors, try adding "Prismatic Fenerox"

I've used Floran sprites as placeholders for stuff. I've got someone working on the sprites, but they've got their own stuff to deal with as well, so it's still slow-going lol

I thought I had enabled Fenerox as crewmates, but I'll definitely have to dig around more and figure out what I've done wrong.

A playable fenerox? GREAT idea!

I will list a few cons, based on what needs work.

= More options for fenerox color schemes. (Just my opinion, anyway.)
= Pixel art for the ship STILL Hasn't been done, yet. (If you wanted, you could just take some pre-existing pixel art for that, and then just give it some minor tweaking to give some distinction.
= I think there should also be the option of allowing fenerox as crewmates, too!
= The armors look EXACTLY the same as the floran armors, so they could use tweaking, as a result. (I advise making them merely look similar; NOT exact.)

Never knew I needed this but thank you my food man!

Lol ok. Excited to see how they'll look. I think until then I just play with "built your own ship mod" if possible.

Ah, whoops. I got caught up in the whole Youtube thing. I'll try to make time to work on these again. I definitely left a bunch of stuff unfinished. I'll make a desktop stickynote about it! o7

are the ships fixed?

Thanks, and i figured t was best worth asking about it since I didn't want to get in trouble.

I won't stop anyone from doing anything lol
I've still got at least two different versions on my computer I need to go through and compare to figure out which one's... less unfinished.

Speaking of which, @Sir Greaves would it be okay if I used and revamped on the inspection dialogue for a mod?

you are doing an exellent work just hope 5 different guys do mods with with the same goals

Just picked this mod up, partially since I'm a Starbound noob and not ready for the Frackin' Universe mod yet, but I figured that since I'm decent at sprites that if you need any assistance with trying to sprite out the starter ship, I figure I could lend a hand. By no means do I want to pressure you as well, but I'm with big chungo in that I'd love to see this mod finished.

to the mod creator - i'm really impressed with all the work you've done so far, and i understand that mental health absolutely takes precedence over mod creation. that being said, i'd really love to help you finish it! i don't know the first thing about modding starbound, but if you'd ever want a collaborator for writing check text or completing pixel art, please send me a friend req. ty for reading!

Awesome! I think I'll follow you to make sure I stay updated on it (i love your Player Aura mods too by the way! I still use one every time I play :)

I haven't got around to organizing all my files yet, but I do still want to finish this yeah! :D

Are you still working on this project? I want to use it because it feels like a natural part of the game, but the placeholder text and voided ship are a bit off-putting to me. I completely understand if not and I hope all is well <3

Right yeah, I wouldn't expect you to go add things to work with that mod or anything, just wasn't sure if applying what vanilla scan lines you already have myself would be as simple as swapping text files around or if it's more complicated than that.

Dunno, but Frackin is so big that compatibility with it was always a large undertaking of its own. I simply don't have the time for that.

Hey I don't know really anything about modding at all, is there any chance it'd be possible to apply your scanner inspection monologues to Frackin's Fenerox race and would it be simple to do so?

so uh... how long will i float around in space, with a ship that has no hull or thrusters or anything?

Yeah, it's just I've got a lot of placeholder lines in there for me to keep track of progress. I really mean to get back to working on these mods, at least until I can consider them finished, life just has a habit of getting in the way.

So do they have their own inspection dialogue?

If I recall correctly, I have added some structures, yes. But I don't recall if they've actually been set to spawn.

Is there villages in this mod?

I'm not well known and I'm quite new to the community thought I'm quite skilled when it comes down to sprites & the like

Hey... if you're interested I could help with few of those sprites

> Might I suggest for the ship if you get around to updating the mod, to use a sort of sandstone style like their homes.

I was thinking they'd've learned from various other species' as far as structure goes, but yeah I was gonna go for a brownish coppery style for the main coloring. :D

Might I suggest for the ship if you get around to updating the mod, to use a sort of sandstone style like their homes.

That is understandable i am still in school so i understand how that feels.

The art is still placeholder, yeah. I've been very busy, so my Starbound mods have had to take the most back-burner position anything's ever taken, and I feel bad for that but I also just haven't had the time.

Is their a different ship or is it that?

thank you!!!

I thought I'd made them both the same. Once I've got everything all properly organized and the mod-wheel spinning again, I'll definitely see about doing that and also adding more styles!

the male hair selections are pretty limited, any chance you could add the female hair options to the male as well? sorry if this is too big of an ask though!

Not that I'm presently aware of. Some stuff may be overwritten depending on the load order, but I don't recall anything specific that this would conflict with. (Besides FU, but that's known.)

Anything of note that this may be incompatible with? Planning on adding it to my FU-free modpack,and just wanted to be aware just incase

Thanks man

I've been doing a little better recently, but I've been sick. I've got to get everything re-organized, but then I should be able to start working on things again.

I of course will never promise deadlines, but I should be able to squeeze even a little bit of modding into my schedule in the coming weeks.

With that in view, I'd like to say: take all the time you need on this one bro. I can't - and won't - get at you for any delay due to mental health, and if that's the reason for the delayed mod updates, then I can totally live with it until you are able to continue.

Just wanna give respect to you that you keep trying. And also thank you bringing us this mod - it is a really nice addition to Starbound, and has brought me (and others I'm sure) a lot of entertainment. Your work is appreciated.

Hey there @Sir Greaves. Just wanna say: I popped in here to see if this was still being worked on, because while I love the mod, the placeholder responses when I have my Fenerox crewmember follow me are a little immersion-breaking.

However, I see down below that you have been struggling with depression. As somebody who has suffered from that myself for many years, I very much feel for you and sympathise with your plight. I know how difficult it can be to keep going, and find motivation for anything, in dark times.

I shouldn't be doing a lot of things, honestly, but I'm stubborn and stupid.

if you've been struggling on art for this long, i feel like you really shouldnt be trying to solo-develop this.

It would definitely cause some errors. Make a backup first, just in case.

How safe is it to uninstall this mod mid-playthrough? With the assumption that I am not playing as a fenerox nor have any fenerox crew members.

The ship is extremely tricky to placehold. As it is currently, I'm firmly set on the room layout. If I change that, it'll mess-up anyone trying to upgrade because of tilemap stuff.

The art will change when I change it, but is currently made from placeholder bits. The earlier tiers suffer from a lack of creativity at that size. I designed backwards from the final tier, so getting that sort of design crammed into the smaller space is stretching the limits of my already limited creativity.

Recently started a save as a Fenerox, and I now see what you meant by Art 2 months ago. I am excited to see what you decide on for their ship in the future, but, if you wanted to, you could use one of the base races as a placeholder ship

That's fair. As I said, mod is cool, love having the ability to play as and have Fenerox.

Oh yeah loads of placeholder dialogue.

Once I get everything sorted-out properly, I do still intend to keep working on those. They're just placeholder for my sake really, so I can tell how much I've replaced and how much I have to go.

It sucks to hear that you're feeling depressed man, I hope you feel better soon. As for the art bit, not sure what I can say, more so as what I was mentioning wasn't about art but for messages for things like accepting quests from Fenerox NPCs. Again, hope ya feel better soon, been enjoying having some Fenerox crewmates.

> Is this still being updated? There seems to still be a number of placeholder messages.

I still haven't abandoned it. I'm just depressed and not good at art.
