Version 0.10.2 Is Modded Onto Early Access

Welcome to this week's update! Most of the team is back again and we are ready to roll. Note that this week's update is still a bit smaller in scope since our artists only came back this week. [h2]Adventure Together With Nini[/h2] A new special pet has been introduced, Nini! [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44218979/25a6cad22bcea2da1edb5d406396a9b8bdf571a9.png[/img] How to get it is up to you to find out! Nini has been added in honor of a very special person. I hope she will provide you with as much joy and love as she does to me, [h2]Mod In Your Own Pets[/h2] [b]Modding Quest Master[/b] is a very often requested feature, and I listened. Starting today you can [b]mod in your own pets[/b]. I will be gradually [b]expanding the capabilities of the modding tools over the coming weeks and months[/b] and gauge interest. Let's get into how easy it is to create your own pet. [h3]1. Locate the Mods folder[/h3] The first step is to locate the [b]Mods[/b] folder. It's part of the installation directory, which you can find my right-clicking the game within the Steam interface.

Duplicate the Example Pet Mod[/h3] You will notice a folder inside the Mods directory called [b]~Cojiro (Example Pet Mod)[/b]. This is a sample pet mod that I created, which simply creates a clone of the chicken pet and colors it blue. To create your own pet, duplicate that folder and rename it to something you want.

So for your own pet, do not use the tilde ~.[/code] [h3]3. Modify The Pet Spritework To Your Liking[/h3] You will see all necessary sprites inn the folder you just duplicated. Modify them however you want. [h3]4. Optionally Adust The Pet Configuration[/h3] You will see a [b]Cajiro.yaml[/b] file in that directory. This is what tells the game to produce the pet at runtime. It has a lot of documentation to get you started. If you wish to make changes to the animations of your pet or how it moves, feel free to modify it.

Run The Game And Give Gabi A Visit[/h3] If you did everything right, Gabi will show all your modded pets at the end of the list. Enjoy your new custom pet!
