  Well, here just ask for anything you desire in modding that is not totally obscene or impossible, and I will try to get around to it. Blah blah blah copy bleh right blah blah blah give blah credit blah bleh. I can also help on a large modding project, etc. I generally take my sweet time testing stuff and just being lazy, so it might take a while unless it is tiny or simple. When you make a request, if you want it private for any reason, do it in a pm. Otherwise I would like to make a portfolio of sorts of the requests to allow other modders to use it. If you just want help modding stuff in general, I can also help, since I may not be an expert, but I know my stuff.

There's a creature I've been trying to make that I'd like some help on. It would be a tiger with a long neck, scales on its neck and tail, and multiple connected grasping tongues--I've created a tongue-hand for that:

Code: [Select]

[BODY:RCP_HAND_TONGUE]
[BP:TONGUE:tonguehand:STP][CONTYPE:HEAD][CATEGORY:TONGUE][SMALL][GRASP]
[DEFAULT_RELSIZE:20]I imagine the creature as having black fur and green scales, and being made of crazy-strong materials.

My work so far:

Code: [Select]

[CREATURE: SNATTACAKE]
[DESCRIPTION: A strange being with a cat's head and torso but

a snakelike neck and tail. It uses its tree-branching tongue as a hand.]

put your stuff in code tags!

Also, why is it RCP? I guess that'd be cool--RCP refers to the procedurally generated creatures.

Anyway, what's the issue, exactly? Replace TONGUE with RCP_HAND_TONGUE.

[GuesssWho]

Sorry.

I should have a non-RPC version too, shouldn't I?

[Putnam]

No, not at all. RPC is fine.

[GuesssWho]

I added the other just in case.

Now then. Can I put scales on one part of the creature and fur on another? And where do I add more tongues?

[Putnam]

Code: [Select]

[BODY:RCP_HAND_TONGUE]
[BP:TONGUE:tonguehand:STP][CONTYPE:HEAD][CATEGORY:TONGUE][SMALL][GRASP]
[DEFAULT_RELSIZE:20]
[BP:SECOND_TONGUE:second tongue:STP][CON_CAT:TONGUE][CATEGORY:TONGUE][SMALL]
[DEFAULT_RELSIZE:20]


[GuesssWho]

Would that give me a tongue that branched like a tree? And would I have to add a second tongue bodypart to the files?

[Putnam]

I hope not and no.

To turn that "I hope not" into a definite "no", use this:

Code: [Select]

[BODY:RCP_HAND_TONGUE]
   [BP:TONGUE:tonguehand:STP][CONTYPE:HEAD][CATEGORY:TONGUE][SMALL][GRASP]
      [DEFAULT_RELSIZE:20]
   [BP:SECOND_TONGUE:second tongue:STP][CON:TONGUE][CATEGORY:TONGUE][SMALL]
      [DEFAULT_RELSIZE:20]

[GuesssWho]

But that's what I want. A forked tongue that splits into two more forked tongues that split into graspers.

Oh, by the way--If I want an invulnerable critter, what materials should I use?

[Putnam]

Make an entirely new body system for them is what I do :V see Lord English, Cell (kinda) and SCP-682 in my mods :V

And as for the body part... well, I think you can figure it out from my examples >_>

[GuesssWho]

Here's an insanely OTT tongue:

Code: [Select]

[BODY:ARM_TONGUE]
[BP:TONGUE:tonguearm:STP][CONTYPE:HEAD][CATEGORY:TONGUE][SMALL]
[DEFAULT_RELSIZE:20]
[BODY:WRIST_TONGUE]
[BP:TONGUE:tongue split:STP][CONTYPE:HEAD][CATEGORY:TONGUE][SMALL]
[DEFAULT_RELSIZE:20]
[BP:HAND_TONGUE:tonguehand:STP][CON_CAT:TONGUE][CATEGORY:TONGUE][SMALL][GRASP]
[DEFAULT_RELSIZE:20]
[BP:HAND_TONGUE:tonguehand:STP][CON_CAT:TONGUE][CATEGORY:TONGUE][SMALL][GRASP]
[DEFAULT_RELSIZE:20]
[BODY:WRIST_TONGUE]
[BP:TONGUE:tongue split:STP][CONTYPE:HEAD][CATEGORY:TONGUE][SMALL]
[DEFAULT_RELSIZE:20]
[BP:HAND_TONGUE:tonguehand:STP][CON_CAT:TONGUE][CATEGORY:TONGUE][SMALL][GRASP]
[DEFAULT_RELSIZE:20]
[BP:HAND_TONGUE:tonguehand:STP][CON_CAT:TONGUE][CATEGORY:TONGUE][SMALL][GRASP]
[DEFAULT_RELSIZE:20]Does it work?

[Putnam]

That will cause some issues.

Use CON:TOKEN instead of CON_CAT:TONGUE.

Also, you don't need the extra BODY. That'll cause duped raws.
