Models to portraits/species classes - A python file

[Goregath]

What does it do:

I made this file so I could add species to Vanilla Framework and have them 'just work'.
After looking at the policies and species_classes files, I was deterred.

 

Setup:
So this script assumes you have populated the models folder according to the naming convention used in Vanilla Framework.
Then regenerates ALL of the polices text files for playable races (and pre-sapients), and all the species classes for playable races (not pre-sapients).

 

Assuming you have a folder made like this:

I've removed the _test, so it will now overwrite the Vanilla Framework (or others) if it has the same name.

 

 

 

How to use:

Firstly you'll need python installed.
Later if I get to it I'll see if I can make it an executable or something.

But in this form it is safer as people can read it to see what it's doing.

 

Taken straight from the python file:

 

--- HOW TO RUN THE CODE ----
----------------------------
Assuming something like Linux, run in terminal:
python3 Stell_VanF.py --folderpath 'Some/Path/To/Paradox Interactive/Stellaris/mod/Vanilla Framework' --run_all True

 

Or Windows:
python3 Stell_VanF.py --folderpath 'C:\Users\CHANGEYOURNAME\Documents\Paradox Interactive\Stellaris\mod\Vanilla Framework' --run_all True

 

Or just run it in idle like I do ?
----------------------------

If I have time I will likely update this script, as I find this easier than producing the images themselves.
Feel free to use/modify this script, and to suggest changes if you have any to suggest.

I also generally recommend anyone to read a script before they use it.
