Possible to have Metal Wings on a Human?
« on: August 03, 2012, 08:20:47 pm »

i am experimenting with the custom race/creature raws, and i wonder if its possible to have a simple race, a human with metal wings. but normal bone structure else where, of course, this race is not intended to fly in game do to the bug's.

i have been looking at the creature_standard file and i simply added a "WINGS:2" to BODY:

and i also added

                [SET_TL_GROUP:BY_CATEGORY:WING:SKIN]
              [TL_COLOR_MODIFIER:WING_STEEL:1]
            [TLCM_NOUN:wings:PLURAL]

at the end of the creature text.

any ideas? any more ideas on how i can make the wings a type of metal? preferably steel.

will it be as simple as editing  [SET_TL_GROUP:BY_CATEGORY:WING:SKIN]    into   =  [SET_TL_GROUP:BY_CATEGORY:WING:STEEL]

any tips?

WINGS:2 isn't a body part. You want 2WINGS.


the TL_COLOR_MODIFIER will only change the color, not the material.

Editing what you do will call upon the steel tissue the creature doesn't have.

ok, i fixed the 2WINGS, but as for the steel tissue, what if i make a steel inorganic tissue in the tissue_template_default file?

will it be possible then?
