This mod change the fire texture and adds stuffs related to the fire, the theme is Tribal, for now it adds only a Bonfire, a Corpses Pyre, a Funeral Pyre and a Tribal Torch, others coming soon...



*Added a Corpses Pyre where you can burn enemies corpses (as fuel)
*Added a Funeral Pyre, to commemorate your deceased colonists

Party On !

Looks great! Can the bonfire be used as a funeral pyre to burn bodies as well? Or maybe a separate fire type that takes a human corpse as part of its building materials?

lol perfect timing, I was going to show just that, yes you can use the bodies as fuel, about the funeral I can try, but now this bonfire is like a satanic ritual  ;D

That looks awesome! Next is something like the burning effigies in The Forest :)

What I don't know is why you describe the corpse-fire as satanic ..
I would not cook over that one, but I can't think of something more useful.

I had thought of this too, but there are two issues.
1 The bodies in rimworld have no limbs.
2 Fire animation is like a opaque sticker to stick over to an image, covers everything under it, the only thing you could do is a body with a burning head like a torch, or I should create a new animation, but this requires C#, I don't know if it would be worth spend many hours for a new custom animation and coding in C#, maybe next week

Well.. there are bodies impaled  :-X

If I remember my history correctly that was is more of a christian thing :-D

While the satanistic or pagan religions would rather eviscerate or maim their victims offerings.

How about making it more cultural docile and turn it into a funeral pyre ?

I like it too much to change it, but I like the funeral pyre idea, I haven't problem for creating a new art for it, but how should I set it up? just a bonfire where you can cremate corpses? In the Corpses Bonfire the corpses are used as fuel

Don't change the bonfire then, I love the look of it, this is exactly what belongs in the middle of a killbox or on the path most used by invaders if you don't use killboxes.
You should change the name. Bonfire suggests some celebration or positive event, while Pyres were used to burn witches ( I am not a native speaker, so I have to clarify the definitions for myself )

For a Funeral by Fire or Cremation, I think of a mixture between the stone sacrophagus and a campfire.

The thing is, now I start thinking how you could seperate the corpse types used for fuel. Because mass burning some enemies is of course totally different to the burning ceremony of a lost member of the tribe.

"I am not a native speaker" even me  ;) , so campfire, bonfire, pyre etc for me are all the same thing lol, but I googled it you are right bonfire is more for celebration

separate the corpse types? Well, this isn't a problem, you can filter the human corpses with Allow/Disallow, for example:
   
      <specialFiltersToAllow>
        <li>AllowCorpsesColonist</li>
        <li>AllowCorpsesStranger</li>
      </specialFiltersToAllow>


      <specialFiltersToDisallow>
<li>AllowRotten</li>
<li>AllowCorpsesColonist</li>
     </specialFiltersToDisallow>

For Bills or Stockpiles you can.
Does this work for Fuel Types as well ? Or how do you fuel your Bonfire ?
( I'll try it out and stop asking stupid questions )

Yes it's works even for fuel

I set my bonfire for not accepting colonist corpses and rotten corpses, I tested it many times and works, colonist refuel the bonfire only with human corpses of strangers

*obviously I'm talking about the xml file

Why not rotten corpses ?

Because I don't want that this Pyre will be a simple dump fire, this Pyre is intended as a ritual after a battle (for people that like a bit of roleplay)

Added a Funeral Pyre, as suggested by @SpaceDorf
*unfortunately I found a bug (caused by using the corpses as fuel) but I think I can fix it

Now that is even more beautiful than I imagined.
I will gladly lend my Name to that.

I hope you like the new version, maybe I use both, one in wood one in marble.

Final version of the Funeral Pyre

It look much better in game, video to gif compress the image and also the gif is only 5fps

The only thing missing for now is a download link ::)

Some news
Redesigned the Corpse Pyre art and animation, maybe it's exaggeratedly horror-style and maybe too big but at least it's original, and I enjoyed doing it  ;D
Redesigned torch art and animation, now the torch can be refueled and you can set it to forbid, the maximum fuel lasts 10 hours,
if the fuel is over the torch goes off without disappearing (bonfires also work this way).

Why there isn't the download?
The torch takes 1x2 tiles, this is a little annoying when you build near the walls
I need to set well statistics, cost, fuel rate etc
I have to test well if using bodies as fuel causes problems

No worries, it looks so damn good, I really love it!

Can't wait for the download, like for the new Apple Watch to arrive.....anyway take your time and great work =D

We don't need no water, let the mother*beep*beep* burn ..

Added a cauldron for cooking, since that you can't cooking with the others fire.
it would be interesting create custom recipes for the tribal

Now I will try to clear that already done, and then a download link
