From what I've seen, all the civilized races have been replaced by 3 types of Pikachu. Vulcan Pikachu and Capitalist Pikachu are the two playable races. Helicopter Pikachu are thieves, so watch out for them. It also replaces all the vanilla creatures and plants with its own versions, but I don't know much about those.

Uhh.

Oh, okay. Capitalist Pikachu.

actually they are Vulcans, capitalists, and hellacopters do not have Pikachu after their name, they are simply made by me.
       I'm currently working on removing the vanilla files for jecowa, for this I'm changing all files so that they don't use the vanilla files.
 I would like permission from the coders to change their files, in order to make them compatible without vanilla files. also should body_rcp be replaced, so that there won't be any vanilla randomized creatures or interactions? when it's replaced, it leaves an error every time you turn it on

leave body_rcp for now. Feel free to change the files. Do you have a github account? please make one. There is thi shandy thing, called github desktop, NOT Git. Basically, it downlaods a copy of the github, into a folder, in whicj you can edit stuff. Pretty easy to figure out. Then you can send pull requests (to 'pull' your changes into the main mod) to me, i merge thm, more efficient and easy.

[pikachu17]

Okay, I think my computer is messing with me. I was changing my stuff from "_PIKACHU" to "P17" when the errorlog gave me the error that it gives when the creature hasskin, but not leather or parchment. it gave it to me for the following creature.
[CREATURE:CAKE_P17]
   [DOES_NOT_EXIST][ARENA_RESTRICTED][FANCIFUL]
   [CREATURE_TILE:15]
   [NAME:cake:cakes:cake][CASTE_NAME:cake:cakes:cake]
   [PREFSTRING:being a lie][PREFSTRING:tasty flavor][PREFSTRING:frosting]

HOW IN THE WORLD DID THIS ACQUIRE SKIN!?

You baked it too hard.

You said you can embark with the mod. Mine crashes. What version and OS where you running?

I'm using 43.03 on a windows XP.
      now I've modded some of the vanilla stuff away. there is no longer a material_template_default, tissue_template_default, b_detail_plan_default, body_rcp, creature_equipment or any of the vanilla descriptors other than color_standard(which would be a fool's errand to replace, as it says in the file). I've decided not to replace the examples and notes because they don't actually change the game, and are useful. I've replaced the vanilla speech as best I could try, but it appears to be causing crashes. Well, something is causing the game to crash 2 times when I try to play fort mode, then let me enter fort mode, until I exit the game, at which point it seems to reset to 2 crashes. should I bugfix this and give it to you Friday, or should I do a pull request? while waiting for your reply, I'm going to try to figure out GitHub.

[jecowa]

PE taught me to use GitHub.

First you need to go to the repo and make a fork. Then you need to install Git on your computer. Then you open a Terminal window and type some stuff in:

First time you download, you have to clone:

Code: [Select]

git clone https://github.com/pikachu17/D4FS.git
Then you change directory to the new D4FS folder:

Code: [Select]

cd D4FS
(In the future, you just need to "cd" to your repo folder and use the "git pull" command instead of "git pull projectURL".)

Now make your edits to D4FS project.

If you created any new files, you have to let the Git program know that they exist like in this example:

Code: [Select]

git add /raw/objects/creature_newfile.txt
It's a good idea to use the "git status" command to see what changes it has recorded so far:

Code: [Select]

git status
Now you have to submit all your changes to your repo on GitHub.com:

Code: [Select]

git commit -am "50-character summary of changes"
git push
Now you go back to the GitHub website and make a pull request. You can only have 1 pull request on a repo at a time unless you use branches (which are complicated, and I don't know how to use.)

Or, get https://desktop.github.com/ Github desktop. Has a GUI, you log in, select repo to clone, select folder. Edit stuff in your folder. The app will sense any cnages, which you can commit. Remember to use the sync button. It also does pull requests.

@Pikachu,

You have a Github account, right? I'll add you to the project, so you can make a branch. Easier, less mess. And yes, send  me that version. I will try to get it to work.

[jecowa]

That looks like it might be a good GitHub app for computers that can run it. The GUI app I tried earlier just had a button for each Git command. It was kind of silly.

@Pikachu,

I do have a GitHub account. It's just the same name as this one(pikachu17).

Hey. I think I used GitHub desktop, and it tells me I did the commit to my fork, but it's not showing up at the actual Github

In github desktop, there should be a pull request button, oh, and did you commit it with the commit button? It need a title too.

[pikachu17]

Okay, I think I did it. I haven't got rid of body_default yet, but I got rid of as many vanilla stuff as I could(not meaning that I deleted stuff inside body_default, but that I got rid of other vanilla stuff). I also took the arena from masterwork, so now we don't have the vanilla arena. however, some of the words inside the language are vanilla, but it kept crashing until I did so.

[Gwolfski]

merged

[pikachu17]

I looked at the current code, and while it does have the "shutupdf"s, it still has the original, which is a recipe for disaster. AND my stuff from when I used _pikachu at the end of my code is there, while my files which have the same stuff but ending with _p17 are still there. so delete the files ending with _pikachu, or _pikachu17, the files list_urd and list_ombragon(they were made by me so I could see there stuff, but it has nothing in it at the moment.), b_detail_plan_default, body_rcp, creature_equipment, all three "descriptor_pattern"s, descriptor_shape_standard, exile file(I apparently didn't look carefully at what I was uploading, this is my file of in-complete stuff.), language_DWARF,  language_SYM, language_words, material_template_default, and tissue_template_default.

[pikachu17]

I've worked a little bit harder, and now body_default is unnecessary.
