Protogen Race 0.8.7c

Adds Protogens to Starbound!

    This mod adds Protogens to Starbound!

    This mod is in it's very early stages, and as such may not be entirely balanced or function properly. Let me know of any bugs you find, and I'll be sure to fix those ASAP.

    What are Protogens?

    This will require a mod that adds more species options to the character creation screen. I recommend Xbawks Character Extender

    Mannequins add-on: available here

    Extended customization add-on: available here

    Frackin' Universe BYOS support: available here

    Minor update v0.8.7b
    - Overhaul of SAIL sprites (again), I've gotten a little better at art since I made the last set, and this new iteration has a lot of fixes over the previous version. I don't think I changed anything else but I may have forgotten, do let me know as always if something is bugged.

    [​IMG]

    An update a long time coming, with new additions and fixes.

    ADDITIONS

    ARMOUR - Added a unique set of late game armour, craftable sets for all tiers are coming soon.

    WEAPONS - Added an upgraded variant of the Lightrifle, more upgraded variants are coming soon, as well as more entirely new weapons.

    CRAFTING - Made the Protogen crafting table upgradeable, and added a totally new crafting station which will produce useful materials to craft the new high-tier gear.

    FURNITURE - Added a number of new furniture items, and fixed a few issues regarding plushes.

    TENANTS - Added a method to more consistently spawn Protogen tenants using colony deeds, use enough Protogen furniture in a room and the NPC will always spawn as a Protogen!

    NPCS - Added a custom merchant NPC, which is spawnable with a colony deed and a particularly mysterious furniture item...

    SOUND - Added a new hurt sound effect created by Riv, please feel free to give feedback to help us get the right sound for the species.

    CHANGES

    SOUND - swapped firing sounds for the Lightrifle and swing sound for the Lightblade.

    MISC

    MISC - Numerous fixes, hopefully should prevent crashes and stuff.

    Frackin' Universe FUSAIL patch available here, though FU itself should come with out of the box compatibility now. I will be working on my own Frackin' Races stat add-on at some point though.

    This Race reminds me of Omega-Xis from Mega man Star Force.

    This is a pretty cool mod.
    The only thing I dislike is that there are very few things when creating the character.
    And I sincerely think that the S.A.I.L could be better drawn.

    But the rest seems like a good mod to me

    Very good mod, I love the style of the cybernetic-like raptor aliens, kind of reminds me of an anime, though I can't remember it. Anyways, very well done!
    5 stars! <3
