Question, how would I go about replacing the skin of a creature (existing or not) with a material? (e.g, cloth)

Code: [Select]
[REMOVE_MATERIAL:SKIN]
[REMOVE_TISSUE:SKIN]

[USE_MATERIAL_TEMPLATE:THREAD_PLANT_TEMPLATE:THREAD_PLANT_TEMPLATE]    <-- Thanks Deon, I completely missed this.

[TISSUE:CLOTH]
[TISSUE_NAME:cloth:cloths]
[CONNECTS]
[TISSUE_MATERIAL:LOCAL_CREATURE_MAT:THREAD_PLANT_TEMPLATE]
[TISSUE_LAYER:BY_TYPE:ALL:CLOTH]

This sample raw will place cloth over every part of the body, while removing all the skin.

[USE_MATERIAL_TEMPLATE] is important if you want the material to be native to the creature. For established materials, such as metals or gems, you don't need to use this tag, and can skip to the tissue material.

It should be
[USE_MATERIAL_TEMPLATE:THREAD_PLANT_TEMPLATE:THREAD_PLANT_TEMPLATE]
in your case.

You missed the material definition which should take on the template.
