Title: Harry Dickle's Fuzzy Pickle
Post by: Harry_Dicks on February 24, 2018, 08:48:44 AM
Hello. I've updated some fantastic mods to B18. I take absolutely zero credit for any of the work done except for bringing some of these mods to work on B18. Some of them I have only had to do minor changes to make work, and really isn't worthy of any praise, but I hate seeing errors and I hadn't seen anyone else post these (B18 versions) yet. If anyone runs into any errors or bugs please post anything that could help me fix them.

Users are encouraged to post any incompatibilities they run into along with relevant information so that we can see if we can get a proper fix made. Users are also encouraged to post forgotten about A17 mods that could be brought up to B18. Users are thirdly encouraged to post any balance comments, positive or negative. This doesn't mean you need to say, "this is imbalanced and sucks". That is a garbage comment and I will post a garbage response. Please say why you think the balance is wrong, and/or what you think is a better solution.

If there are any issues with me rehosting any of these mods I can take them down without issue. In the event that I have accidentally included an author's work that was not meant to be published in such a way, then this is an honest error on my part with no ill intention behind such acts, and I will work to rectify the situation as soon as possible.

Personally, I would hate to see such great work by such talented authors be lost so that others could not experience these mods as well. This is my primary directive with this post, and nothing more. I simply love this stupid game and it's mods so much for whatever reason that I enjoy learning more about it and how it works everyday, and sharing that with whoever wants to listen.

ALL OF MY MODS ARE OFF OF STEAM ONLY!!!

Please note there is a minor bug in the world screen. If you have dev mode enabled, and you click an ocean cell in the world screen, you will get a red error about unable to change the climate. All you must do is simply click any normal land cell and this error will go away. Anyone who understands C# if they would like to look into this, it would be great! But other than that there are zero issues that I have run into. One other thing, I did almost no work to update this. I harassed Mehni and Jecrell to help me, and they did! ALSO this works with Rim of Madness woohoo! ;D My little rant about why this is one of my most favorite mods of all posted here (https://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?topic=39206.msg399562#msg399562).

I have also updated Diseases Overhauled and Extended Human Body Simulation (required for Diseases Overhauled) to be compatible with Rah's Bionics and Surgery Expansion. They were already updated to B18 by another user, but I had to make some modifications to let this work with RBSE. I'm not sure if this matters but this is the load order I have been using for these mods that might be relevant to them working properly for me. But I would recommend at least trying it like this.

I think I can say with a fair degree of confidence that a lot of this stuff wouldn't have happened if it weren't for you!

I'll update it with Elemental Boomalopes and everything else with all sorts of pretty colors and links later today. Figured if I can at least get a basic post going, then I will hopefully find the motivation to make it look nice, maybe with some screenshots, later on :P

My customized version of Modular Power Armor https://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?topic=31118.0

https://www.dropbox.com/s/02xcz104vhagp5g/ModularPowerArmorHD1.0.zip?dl=0

One of the biggest changes I've made to this version of modular power armor is that it now ONLY takes up the SHELL apparel layer! This means that you can now have a dedicated "on skin" layer of apparel for your clothes, along with the middle layer, all underneath your power armor without having to play mix & match and guess what can go with what. This version is meant to go along with my customized version of FashionRIMsta.

I think this is a fantastic mod but I had to make a lot of changes to it. For anyone that hasn't checked it out, you now have five new tiers of power armor that actually cover ALL of your pawns body parts. Vanilla power armor and helmet do not cover your hands or feet. Plus, give you something great to invest lots of your late game resources into. Quarry is a must have mod for me, you can customize it to produce any resource at any given chance for you, perfect for late game when your map has run out of resources. Absolutely recommend https://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?topic=32190#msg329352

Anyway, starting off there is now no longer any fusion cores that come from anything. One reason behind this, is because I want to be able to play with Mechanoids Extraordinaire, and I couldn't make myself unlazy enough to make a patch for it, and also just didn't really care enough at the time. So you can now make the first tier of modular power armor with no fusion cores. However, the first tier chest armor and helmet DO still require a vanilla power armor and power armor helmet as and ingredients, respectively. But you can now also make the first tier of modular power armor gloves (arms, shoulders, hands) and legs (legs, feet) with all other ingredient costs still being the same. But all of the other tiered pieces beyond level one will still require the same piece of armor of the previous tier as an ingredient, just as before.

Also, I made all of the crafting recipes no longer require high levels, or any levels, of intelligence. It now only depends on the pawns crafting skill. Skill level requirements have changed from 8->11->14->17->20 to 7->10->13->14->19. I did this because of skill degradation and I know not everyone is keen to turn this vanilla function off, and I'm thinking there could be unfinished top tier armors because someone is having trouble keeping their crafter at skill level 20.**

I cleaned up the file structure as the extra power armor textures aren't needed if the game is using vanilla textures. This means that the only textures included are for the gloves and boots when dropped on the ground in the world map. As the original author has stated, these are not his original textures, and he is using them with permission. I don't plan on repeating this a lot for any of the other mods that I've changed and I post, but I just wanted everyone to remember that none of these are mine, and might not even be the author's from which mod I am posting a modification of!

Finally, I changed all of the insulation levels to be only 5 degrees in either direction in Celsius per piece of armor. Since there is no quality level to the armor, this means with a full suit of power armor, your pawns will now only have 20C heat insulation and -20C cold insulation. This is the same for all levels, but I'm open to considerations for changing the different tiers if anyone wants to come up with the numbers. The original levels were at some absolutely insane levels, something I did not like especially because I like to play with the temperature from Cold Desert Nights.

**I recommend checking out the mod Mad Skills, which lets you adjust how much XP pawns can earn in a day in given skill, the XP handicap after they've passed the daily threshold for a given skill, and also one other option that I can't remember :P Oh, you have also a check box to turn on or off skills being able to drop down levels! I know there are other mods that say they let you turn on or off skill degradation, but I want to say I've also read in some tooltips that there were possible inconsistencies with the mods working. I can't say 100% or not if Mad Skills works all of the time, or if any of the mods work properly or not that claim to do so, but from what I've tested so far I've been satisfied with the results of Mad Skills. Definitely worth checking out.

Thanks larSyn! I don't think you should have any issues installing midgame! Also, all of the mods I've been updating so far have been xml only (which means I didn't do any work on Cold Desert Nights :) ), so I don't think they should give any issues trying to install them midgame. Maybe TropiCKAPP would? I truthfully couldn't tell you 100% for sure, though.

Everyone else, always make backups of your games before trying new mods out if it is in the middle of a save, please. This practice, along with using ModSwitch https://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?topic=35719.0 and I guarantee you can prevent yourself from having to waste tons and tons of time rebuilding a lost mod list (which will happen if you turn on dev mod with the default options and your game crashes!) and/or switching between all sorts of mod lists. Not to mention the built in mod list search box! Once you start playing with so many mods, I am being very honest in that the levels of frustration caused by not having something like ModSwitch would be completely unendurable.

One of the very first things that made this terrible situation of my addiction to tinkering with my modlist and mods going was when I lost my first big mod list, due to having turned dev mode on and not turning off the "reset mod list on crash" default option. My list of maybe 100ish mods was lost, and I couldn't rebuild it without getting an insane amount of errors, not to mention I couldn't remember the exact mods I actually had turned on, because I had maybe 300-400 total in my Mods folder at the time.

As time passed and I came to the conclusion that I was going to be forced to learn a bit more about how some of these mods work, I can at least get the tools I need to help myself. Notepad++ guys. That's all I have been using to fix all of these mods that I post, it's so great!. Either way, I was forced to now slowly rebuild my mod list, only putting a few new ones in at a time, and also doing small test games in between each new mod list iteration.

Going from zero to 320ish (my highest that I ever actually tried playing with at once) actually took way too long, and much longer than I would have ever originally anticipated. Then that means my performance is now garbage, after weeks of building this mod list and trying to filter through content to get only what I wanted, but I've now got too much! Playing around 145ish mods at the moment, it's so hard trying to decide what to use and not... there's just too much great content! ;D

Bar0th's B18 Razzle Dazzle http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1222191290

As far as I can tell Bar0th is updating Razzle Dazzle on Steam now, as SeveralPuffins has been MiA for awhile. This is extremely unfortunate, as he REALLY had some awesome mods. I can't help but want to play with Rumors & Deception so bad, along with Recon & Discovery, and possibly Romance Diversified. I want to expand the social system in more specific directions that suit my own tastes. I know a lot of people suggest Psychology, and wow is that mod like nothing else, but it just isn't for me. R&D also adds a handful of really interesting sounding events/locations. I feel like there are barely any other mods like this, because I've been trying to get as many different events/incidents via mods as possible. Rim of Madness/Call of Cthulhu series adds a ton of top notch ones, but I still want more!

But just look at ALL of this awesomeness! https://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?topic=33075.0

I especially want this from Romance Diversified, " Unfairly judged pawns, be they ugly, creepy, annoying or disfigured, get much lower opinion debuffs with each other." Because I like to build colonies with really interesting and messed up pawns. A decent amount of them will be beautiful but with an annoying voice. Or with some kind of mixture of things like staggeringly ugly, chemically fascinated, bipolar and bloodlust. Most of the pawns are somewhat balanced, but I've definitely got my troublemakers to balance out the more saintly ones. And they keep things interesting! Plus gives the docs a chance to have something to work on after they keep getting into fisticuffs with each other. Recommend Marvin Kosh's Ugh You Got Me, so that pawns won't kill each other when they get into social fights, which I will have a lot of. Actually suggest checking out all of his mods!

https://www.dropbox.com/s/3w2x0fw6rzbjk4d/Colony%20Leadership.zip?dl=0

I've removed plastic as an ingredient for the ballot boxes so people should no longer get an error.

Guys, check out this kick ass mod. It let's you have a dictator or democratically elected leaders in your colony, and they can also teach other pawns their skills based on what KIND of leader they are!

There are 4 kinds of leaders: botanists, scientists, carpenters, and warriors.

What type of leader a pawn would be is determined by their most prominent skills. The mod will give you a little information tile thing on the right side of the screen with the calculation per leader once they are chosen. Each leader will project a "leadership aura" that is actually TIERED based upon the leader's LEADERSHIP LEVEL, what!!! The bonuses given off be the leader aura will depend on the type of leader it is. Also, leaders themselves will get even more personal bonuses, in addition to the aura bonus they give off.

One really cool thing you can do, turn on God Mode, then click the Leadership tab at the bottom of the screen, and you can actually have as many dictators as you want, reset leadership, or do whatever you need to!

Finally, you can even setup the leader's schedule for teaching classes. I have not yet messed around with this aspect of the mod, but it looks absolutely incredible!

a lost mod list (which will happen if you turn on dev mod with the default options and your game crashes!)
I think the mod list resets when the game crashes because of detected incompatibility even if dev mode is off, and you need to be in dev mode to uncheck this option. But just in case, even without ModSwitch it can be restored from some save file if you had it (at least the last worked version), either while loading or by manually copying the appropriate lines.

If anyone has any suggestions on other mods that are still on A17 then you're encouraged to post about them! I can only do xml, but even if you aren't sure, go ahead and post anyway! There might be a chance that the C# isn't too hard to update (if there even is any in the mod) and even if there is, then I could pester enough people to get someone to hopefully help as long as I do all of the xml work :)

My customized version of FashionRIMsta, made by the very talented artists spoonshortage and Nackblad.
https://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?topic=24432.0 or https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=745193823
https://www.dropbox.com/s/xyqm8kmhzaxqbmt/FashionRIMstaHD1.0.zip?dl=0

One of the main purposed of me changing around this mod is so that I can have specific apparel pieces at certain apparel LAYER levels, so this mod is meant to go along with my version of Modular Power Armor.

I went through and changed a lot of the properties on pretty much all of the apparel, as far as I can remember. I wanted them more balanced towards what I wanted. I also added to the description all of the LAYERS the pieces of apparel will use, along with with body parts they covered.

Yes, I now know that the information screen shows what parts are covered by apparel, but I had forgotten at the time I was doing this. So whatever, I left it in there anyway. I thought the formatting of all of the information in the descriptions looked nice now anyways. I think I also put the insulation values in both Celsius and Fahrenheit in there to make things easier. Remember that these are what the values would be if the piece of apparel was of normal quality, because this value will be affected by the quality of the apparel.

Anyway, my motivation for doing this is because RimWorld hides this information from the player, what layer a piece of apparel covers. There are 3 layers for all body parts for pawns, except for the head, as far as I can tell. All of this information I am fairly confident on, but may not necessarily be 100% correct. But on the body the three layers are "on skin", middle, and shell. For a pawn's head there is simply overhead. The body part groups are: full head (which can be broken down further), neck, torso, shoulders, arms, hands, legs, feet.

In regular RimWorld, some pieces of apparel cover odd body part groups (like overalls) and/or odd layers! This means that if you have even just a couple apparel mods like Apparello and FashionRIMsta, when you try and mix and match outfits with hidden information you have to then play the process of elimination, but with just so many pieces of different apparel you have literally thousands of different possible combinations!

I have another mod I use that has "nanoskin suits" in it that I will use for one of the "on skin" layers for a pawn's outfit. The middle layer I will use for things like their specialty outfit. This means things like a construction vest, scrubs, gardening vests, miner's jumpsuit, lab coat, etc. On the shell layer I will use for only outerwear (like parkas, desert robes, cultist robes, etc.) and power armors. This way, along with the mods Change Dresser, I can always have all of my colonists with the appropriate gear on for their jobs and their proper social roles and then being able to swap to combat gear and keeping on the proper things that I want.

One thing that vanilla RimWorld does that I hate, is Power Armor takes up the middle AND shell layers on a pawn. To remedy this situation I've made both vanilla power armor (which I do not have in any mods) and my version of Modular Power Armor only use the shell layer.

This means once my base colony is up and running and I have things coming along decently with proper apparel, my pawns will look like this: nanoskins, specialty worker gear, and cultist robes or extreme weather gear. When they need to go into combat, swap the outter wear for power armor.

Together with Facial Stuff .18.5 showing different apparel layers on a pawn depending on where they are is ridiculously awesome. I can have the shell layer only be displayed while a pawn is outdoors. When they are inside, it can show the middle layer. Then when they are in their bedroom, they can be shown in their "on skin" apparel layer. There is a toggle to have hats only shown when pawns are outside as well. One more option to have all of the above not apply to pawns that are drafted. That's great if you have them swapped to their power armor (via Change Dresser https://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?topic=36786) and want that to be visible no matter where your pawns are. Maybe they have to fight inside, and you still want to see them in all of their awesomeness. Oh, you can also recolor apparel too with it. Hello badass red or black or dark green or whatever color you want apparel and power armors! ;D

Post by: Harry_Dicks on February 25, 2018, 01:58:28 PM
Also I honestly think Cold Desert Nights is the best mod out of all of the ones I have posted. It is absolutely insane how freaking awesome it is. Honestly, guys, try it out. You will not be disappointed. I promise! ;) AND it should be safe to add or remove from saves, the weather should reset to it's default values if you want to remove it.

If you really do want to remove it from a save game, you will get a red error the first time you load a save without it. Everything should be alright, and once you make a new save without the mod loaded, then you shouldn't get this red error anymore. Although I can't even imagine anyone who actually takes the time to fully appreciate how awesome of a mod it is could ever want to turn it off. This one is an absolute no questions asked must have for me. You can tell the author took his time and put in some really incredible work.

You want to have a regular desert during the day but have it super freezing at night? Sure. Want a milder desert day and milder night? Done. Want a Super hot day but only mild night? Alright!

You can also change ANY of RimWorld's weather chances to whatever you want. You can make it fog or rain or lightning storm as often as you want, AND even let them occur back to back! In vanilla RimWorld, most of the weather types can't occur back to back except for the milder ones, as far as I know. But for example I'm fairly certain that you can't even have rain back to back, let alone anything more than that. You can change what the maximum temperature difference will be between winter and summer. This means that if you want to play an arid shrubland that actually has pretty cold winters, and maybe even snows, you can! You never even have to change the world cell (via Prepare Landing!).

Other options include a setting that you can also change how extreme the cold snap and heat waves are. The mod was even future proofed to accept any new biome types, because you even have a drop down list to where you can customize all of these options for each biome! So you want different settings for your deserts versus extreme deserts is fine! Cold bogs versus boreal forests that works too!

I really can't imagine much else of what I would want out of a weather app. It's amazing. You can even make your arid shrublands actually have cold winters now, maybe even make it snow!

Not sure, but you could maybe choose dictatorship, choose a dictator, and then reset your leaders by turning on dev/god mode and opening the Leadership tab and experimenting with your new buttons.

If anyone wants to make some textures for building add ons, then that would be really awesome. Things like a saw mill, a lathe, etc. I've made an add ons mod for pretty much all work stations to increase their efficiency. This was one of the first things I made for myself, and the post looks like crap. But I would like to finish it and release it. However, I have no textures, and everything I'm using right now are just placeholders. If anyone wants to remake any of the textures for it, or hell even new and/or different ones for something that seems like it would fit in that mod, then please, go for it.

Because the way I look at it, right now it's just going to sit in the WIP section and go to waste anyway over time. So if anyone cares to make the art for it, then we can release the mod, I'll give you full credits and links to your pages or anything you need. I can even go back in and improve the mods code by adding/removing/adjusting any add ons you can think of or do whatever we need to, to make the mod ready for a proper release.

I believe these are both already updated to B18, as I use them myself! :) I just haven't actually tested out Razzle Dazzle ingame, just little test games but not the actual stages and stuff yet, but I would assume they are working.
I asked this elsewhere but did you try it on an existing save? Just saw someone comment the b17 version at least, shouldnt be added mid game due to work tab changes

Thanks for the colony leadership, now I'll have more democratic ways rather than cultists taking over everything. Sad about Puffins mods though, I also loved the recon and discovery, but I guess its hard to boot to B18. Gotta wait for a non-steam release for RazzleDazzle too, since I dont use Steam version :_:

Anyways I'll be turning in a list of outdated mods soon, since I still keep my A16 and A17 modlists and oh boy, these contain more names than Santa's list.

No problem guys, I hope you all enjoy!

I'll check the licenses when I get back, but if possible I'll put up the B18 versions of Razzle Dazzle and Rumors & Deception. ;D

I have a request, Harry.  How about nanodalt's Pests mod?  Probably requires C#, but it would be awesome.  I loved that mod.  Also, giving Colony Leadership a shot.  Never tried it before, so thanks for the update!
Title: Re: Harry Dickle's Fuzzy Pickle
Post by: Harry_Dicks on February 26, 2018, 03:35:37 PM
No problem friend! Unfortunately, I am not versed in C#, so I doubt I could be of much help to it. That mod really does look interesting!

I like all of Nandonalt's work, and I would ESPECIALLY love if a certain special someone would help get Snowy Trees to B18 like they said they might in the past :)

B18 version of Rumours & Deception posted!

Updated the postings on my customized versions of FashionRIMsta and Modular Power Armor. The mods are meant to be able to go together, and the apparel layer levels have been adjusted so that I can more easily make proper outfits for my pawns. Apparel layer levels are also posted in the information screen so that this is no longer hidden to players. Also made power armor only take up the shell layer, instead of middle + shell.

Spent over an hour cleaning up all of OP and the links (thanks Canute!). So hopefully everything is working properly. If any links don't work or lead to the wrong place, please let me know. Because if I have to go back and do anymore tweaking or fixing at the moment I think I'm going to pull my hair out :)

I figured if I had a cohesive set of colors going across the post it might make things easier for people to navigate it and understand where they need to go when clicking on stuff. What do you guys think, everything looks good enough and everything is easy to find?

The "Extended Human Body Simulation and Diseases Overhauled" is a bit confusing.
When "require" indicate you need the other part too. Why you didn't merge them into one archive ?
Title: Re: Harry Dickle's Fuzzy Pickle
Post by: Harry_Dicks on March 03, 2018, 03:52:09 AM
You're right, it's because the second part, Diseases Overhauled, requires the EHBS. I'll try to get around to fixing those parts today or tomorrow.

Earlier when I was fiddling with shortening all of the links to hyperlinks and making everything else look like it flowed together better took enough out of me, for "free modding energy that I feel like expanding today" at least ran out :P

Isn't formating your forum post some kind of modding too ? ;-)
Title: Re: Harry Dickle's Fuzzy Pickle
Post by: Harry_Dicks on March 03, 2018, 05:55:06 AM
Formatting the post and making mods both draw from the same pool of energy. ::)

And that pool ran out yesterday. Who knows, I might get up the momentum to handle it later today :P

Is TropiCKAPP Rainforest mod compatible with Nature's Pretty Sweet and Animal Collab Project?

You ask at the wrong way.
Does Nature's Pretty Sweet is working with other mod's well ?  No.

Yeap, same as Coolphoton. Pawn wont give a lesson, and for me they even didn't candidate for Leader(had to manually set them).

I know you're updating abandoned mods. But if you'd like to upload non-steam versions (for us anti-steamer people) of these mods, I'd appreciate it:

I installed the leadership mod on a existing save (used to use it in the past), everything seemed great but when it comes time for class, the teacher is unavailable and class gets canceled everytime. I have tried everything i can think of with no luck, its quite possible its some kind of mod conflict, so just wondering if anyone else is or isnt experiencing this issue. Tried removing the mod, but that ended up deleting my two leaders, so i am keeping it enabled and just dont have any classes scheduled (though i do try occasionally to see if problem might have went away)

Seems like you're maintaining Colony Leadership now, can I get a permission to make a fork of it? If so, could I get codes of the mod so that I can change here and there a little bit?
