Animal Scientific Experiment VI

I'll try it and see if it works...

 

well after all that cutting/pasting/re-numbering I get...
initalising object system (under the blue loading bar on start up) and it stops, I think that its the materials and addmeshs mes, mostly the materials.

testing stuff right now so I'll post this half finished in case I've got to reboot again.

 

no crash I found it (spelling mistake) but kobort one of my guinea pigs, looked human (changed entry in colum 108 to race_drow), the game said he was an elf (I changed his enty in colum 164 to mc_subtype_elf)
changed the stat.mes in both rules and mes so that drow was ##07 and still nothing. I think that it might be in the dll or something; the bit with known creature types or known races.

 

yes but how are you going to make it black without changing the universe? It looks like the "default colour" is human for that model. Also there's the issue of racial traits eg +2dex and -2con because it finds those from colum 108 as well as far as I can tell so wheres the file that says, "Right we got ourselves an elf here so give it {502}{CHEST:art\meshes\PCs\PC_Elf_Male\elf_chest.mdf} and +2dex and -2con"

and maybe +2 saving vs enchantment and imunity to sleep spells, altho this might be colum 164 (pretty sure it is)

 

Cujo, may you develop an additional texture for half drow NPCs?

 

Sorry no, I'm to lazy, to add one new race means editing about 165 files, 81 or so of them pictures and I havn't actually got it to work proply yet either (to have a 7th known race) if I figure it out the results will be in here and some one else could follow my work.

 

I don't seen to be able to find the missing link :shrug:

 

The only problem with my work around is the racial adjustments to the Ability Scores, and its only noticeable on the Drow, unless drow don't have +2dex and -2con then it'll be fine...

found something while going for a wander;

So I don't know what can be done about that, but it does go hand in hand with the bit that colum in the protos that finds the skin colour. Also there's this stuff but it's not going to be added by me.

 

I don't know about you guys, but I personally would rather see the Drow as encounterable, highly potential enemies, or at the very most, joinable NPCs with agendas of their own, rather than a selectable PC subrace.

having them as PCs would make the party way overpowered, and would also kind of break the story a bit i think... i mean, no one in hommlet would want to have very much to do with a race as generally genocidal as the drow. except the traders, of course.

i'm pretty sure black jay would even attack a drow on sight, with him being an elf friend and all.

 

There's not a shit show in hell that Drow are going to be a race you can pick at start up, you're just as likly to have a Balor, but as a hireable NPC, maybe like if you hire Darly and Scorpp etc people'll love you just as much

btw, I always thought charisma was reletive and highly subjective, like orcs talking to orcs or a drow sorcerer or something like that
