I need to know where I can find the Rimworld animal sprites. I can't find anything useful on Google other than the Rimworld Wiki for the East facing animal sprites, but I don't know where to find North facing and South facing sprites. Are you able to help on that?

I've included all of them in a folder somewhere in the mod's source files. Download the project using the github link in the description and then poke around for a "source" folder.

Thank you! Im currently working on plate amor/helmet and flak armor for the Lynx c:

Slight Problem: The Lynx in the project already has the current armor sprites, but I am trying to make new sprites for that armor because the current lynx plate is the old cloth clothes sprite. I don't know if I could work around it.

Nevermind, i'm just stupid. The armor is in another separate layer.

Am I allowed to edit the sprites found in the project?

It's up to you. Since I only need the layered psd files from you, you can hack up the rest of the file structure on your computer as much as you want.

When we are finished drawing armor, how do we contact you and get the files to you?

Can I request a (tested)working file of an armor set that covers ANY animal that enables male and female textures, I cant seem to get mine to work properly and can't find any templates. (I followed the steps listed on one of the pages explaining it, and I also have experience with custom pawns. I can get non-gender specific textures in no problem, not sure how/where I'm messing this up)

Just match the file names of the animal's sprites and you should be good. Dimorphic animals have different sets of sprites for their male/female counterparts with different filenames, if you match those exactly it should work. Just do <armor type>_<Original Sprite Name>.png

I swear I have tried 20 different combos of names and phrases to try and get it to find a alternative texture, everything from case sensitivity, f / m, _female / _male, namefemale / namemale, lifestages nothing seems to be working... I can get the non gendered skin to work fine, and I leave it in the texture file, would removing it make a difference if it was labeled properly? (this is why I would like to see a working example, because what you just recommended gives a texture error message)


My Data: thingsdef - <li>Thrumboid</li>
apparel / body / flak_Thrumboid_f_east.png flak_Thrumboid_m_east.png ,etc
original mod texture names : Thrumboid_f_east.png Thrumboid_m_east.png ,etc
(word for word)
the game doesn't accept this^^^. But does accept Thrumboid_east.png

is this a thing?
<label>thrumboid</label>
<labelMale>thrumboman</labelMale>
<labelFemale>thrumbogirl</labelFemale>
mod : MoreMonstergirls_r1.02

I think the issue is probably that you aren't adding the animal's name to the list of accepted animals in the Defs files. You need to add the animal's names in the list with all the others in the xml files in the Defs folder.

Then, as before, make sure the image files are matching the naming pattern of all the other ones in the Textures folder.

To find out how to properly refer to the animal, check the filename of its own sprite. Sounds like "thrumboid" is one. Sometimes they have unique names. Like in vanilla the ibex deer have names like IbexBuck and IbexDoe or something so it's not always a totally predictable pattern.

Then you need to add that name to the list of animal names in each defs folder. The file names of the armors should look like this:

plate_Thrumboid_east.png

and the names in the defs file should look like this:

<li>Thrumboid</li>

There's a bunch of other ones in the folders already so you should be able to get a sense of what the pattern should be.

Sorry ignore my last message if you read it before I deleted it.

If those are the labelMale and labelFemale from the mod's defs file, then I think you need to add

<li>thrumboid</li>

to the list of animal names in the Defs xml, but then for the image files you need to name them

flak_thrumboman_east.png
flak_thrumbogirl_east.png
(etc.)

Also I'm assuming those are animals. If they're people you should give them armor through the normal vanilla framework and not through this mod.

That isn't working either, same texture error in the log(about can't locate texture, it references Thrumboid). It is strange to me cause it will accept Thrumboid_ but wont accept the others. Are you positive this mod is capable of doing this kind of thing, I just now tested the Cattle from core and they have a similar issue where its not showing the bull texture and gives them both cow textures even if I add Bull to the animals def... (yes the monstergirls are animals)

Now that I think about it I haven't actually added any armor for dimorphic creatures yet so I can't actually say confidently that I know how to make it work. I'd recommend joining the rimworld discord server and asking there, they are very active and prompt with advice.
