Anyone interested in making species mod with me (updated 29.10.2024)

Hello,

Currently I'm trying some ideas that came to me when machine age was released. I mean instead of talking I show you some screens.

 

So what I achieved up to now was to test that my idea is to to bound portraits tits with traits (as for now I use six different size + 1 is without trait -> default).

What I want to check now is to bound clothes assets with tit size but I feel like it was doable even before machine age.

 

So for whom I look like ? Is for someone who can help me with art department to create animated or static portraits with better (realistic not pixel) art. 

If anyone is willing to help just write it, meanwhile I would test my ideas and next if I didn't find anyone to help I would slowly try to create art by myself.

It's not 100% clear what you're trying to do here.  Are you saying you found a way to get evolution stages working with static portraits?

I would say that I followed the tutorial for animated portraits but stopped before animating and creating planes for portraits. For my needs I didn't needed animated portraits so basically I use the way to have a static portraits in animated portraits.

So after thinking I decide to move into making a species mod (without animation and for the beginning it will be a single species - anime humans). I decide to make a female s based loosely on art from popular game KP (at least, whilst male are created by me) but I have a problem with male art I feel like it looks strange so anyone is willing to help me improve this portraits by telling me what I can improve here

 

As for mod I plan to create it will be for beginning the species mod with features:

  - dynamic portraits for male (depends on traits that pop have like eye color, dick size, skin tone - if someone has more idea that should be included just tell me but remember from my test we can only have one evolution at time - although it comes from my understanding of source - stellaris - usage of code so just to need every time all possible combination of dynamic portraits so to be truthful I won't include a big amount of tones for skin e.g.)

- dynamic portraits for female (mouth, skin tone, eye colour, nails color, breast size and maybe in future breast shape - the goal is to create a proper bimbo tradition)

 

As for if all those physical traits will be bound with species traits I'm not sure since basically if I could bound dynamic portrait also with modifiers I would go along with that since I would like to have ability to change a look of single pop without creating additional species but this needs to be tested and if doable create a mechanic to adjust look of single pop by modifiers.
