I am a complete noob at this, having only started trying to make my own mods in the last couple of weeks, but my goal is to add some new tribal items to the game.

So far I have succeeded in creating a new board game joy item called Three Stones Game. It works exactly like the chess game, but has a tribal theme.

I've also added a joy object called Tribal Lore Fire. It's a place for tribals to gather and share stories with each other. It also gives a small Social skill boost. It's not quite what I had in mind when I started making the mod, but my skills just aren't that good yet. Lol

I'm still in the process of attempting to create a joy item called hoop and arrows which will work exactly like the horseshoe game, but, again, with a tribal flavour. If I can figure out how to get into the DLL files to find the horseshoe game code, I should have this done fairly shortly. Or if someone wants to take pity on me and do it for me, I'd be forever appreciative. Lol

I don't think there are any bugs with it, but if you spot any, please let me know so I can fix them.



I've also created a set of blanket beds (single and double). Made from fabric or hides, they're a step up from sleeping on the ground.

Again, I don't think there are any bugs with it, but if you spot any, please let me know so I can fix them.



Just added a new mod called Tribal Production. It adds new crafting spots for art, brewing, butchering, and stonecutting. It also adds some new tribal artwork (totems and rugs) and a crafting basket which boosts productivity.

Tailoring spot now added. You can now make woven hats and cloaks made of grass or softened bark. :)

There are no major bugs that I could find, but there does seem to be a glitch with the stonecutting where types of blocks are counted together instead of individually in the "do until you have" bill. I hope to sort that out soon.

Also it overwrites the hay defs so it may conflict with other mods.

If you want to use any of these in a modpack, feel free, just please credit me. :)

Also, I am in the process of creating my own modpack using these plus some others that work well for tribals. Watch for it soon! :)

Thanks and enjoy!

Got a picture of that tribal flavor?

And maybe a not-steam download link?

Hi, yes, here's a picture.



Unfortunately, until I delete some things from my Dropbox account, I won't have another download link. Lol

Thanks!

Take a look into github.

It's code security, versioning system and release platform in one :)
And one of the few platforms I never had download problems with.

Maxim 1   : Pillage, then burn
Maxim 37 : There is no overkill. There is only open fire and reload.
Rule 34 of Rimworld :There is a mod for that.

QuoteThen I'm going to really challenge myself and try to create a storytelling spot that will work something like the marriage and party spots. But I have really no idea what I am doing, so that may or may not happen. Lol

The Colony Leadership and Teaching Mod has a teaching Table with a settable schedule and could be a nice inspirational source.


If you could add some tribal Artwork in there this would be great too ..
( Totempole, Painted Hide ) and a Torture Stake as Joy Item  ;D

Thanks, yes, I was thinking we needed some Tribal art. Love the idea of totems. :) I'm also thinking of also trying to add weavable objects as well as the carvable ones. Probably rugs or carpets that add beauty.

Thanks!

How about wicker baskets that hold more than a default stack size, for storage and travel?

Something that significantly reduces the amount of tile spaces occupied by stuff, so that storage rooms gain the quality of an efficient space when compared to just dumping things on the floor.

I have an idea for a basket, but not sure I've got the coding skills to start modding storage. I'll look into it, though. :)

Thanks!

Just added another tribal mod. Totems, check. Baskets, check.  8)

Still trying to figure out how to mod the dll files to create the hoop and arrows and storytelling spots. I downloaded Visual Studio, but can't seem to open the files.  :-\ If anyone wants to help, please let me know!

Thanks!

Rimrue

Added Tribal Lore Fire to Tribal Joy and added Rug Weaving to Tribal Production. :)

This is really great! ;D This was something that I always thought was missing from RimWorld. Did you design the graphics yourself?

I'm working on a fantasy themed total conversion... I'll definetly include your work as part of the project.

I don't know how to do any C# or Visual Studios! But a lot of RW modders use Zhentar's fork of ILSpy to peek into the Rimworld code, and I am pretty sure it works on Rimworld mods as well.

Cool! I drew the beds and the board game. The other graphics (rugs, totems, basket, etc.) are purchased stock art images.

Thanks!
