Hey again Eta, I’d like your thoughts on something related to the mod, especially since the translation would be affected. One commenter requested for all of the emote names to be specific, so instead of something like Romance #, it would be Rom# Lay Head On Shoulder (I still want to include the number for the people who have memorized which numbers they like). I can definitely see why they might want that. What are your thoughts on this? Do you feel like it’s something you’d want, and would it help you find specific emotes that you like?
Hi claravel, thanks for stopping by to ask my opinion, it makes me feel quite flattered!
I think specific naming is great! There does seem to be the problem of finding emotes becoming cumbersome with the increased number of emotes (I really don't have a way to correspond each sitting look to its serial number). So if you'd like to add a version that includes specific naming, I'm definitely in favour of that, by all means do so!
Maybe you could still keep the current naming format and just add the description after the number, like Rom1 # Lay Head On Shoulder. I think this naming convention would make it easier for first-time users to find their emote more quickly, and if they have a favourite emote, having the number in the name would make it more memorable! And this way you only have to provide one version of the file, reducing the amount of work you have to do to edit the .xml file.
Of course :) I value your opinion, so thank you for your input! I updated the mod today with the naming format you suggested. Here are the emote names that were changed:
coy 1-4 kneel 1-9 sit 1-18 misc 1-3, 5-7 stand 1-30. 22 has slang lay 1-8. 9-10 deleted romance 1-24
Thank you for your hard work! I've finished the translation and released a new version. Thank you so much for letting me know what was changed, that was very kind of you! 🥰
Hey there, I just fixed some naming mistakes. I used the wrong contentuid for Sits 2-7. But the only changes were in the Spell_Shout.txt, so you don't have to make any changes to the xml or anything. Just wanted to let you know!
Absolutely! Thanks for liking the banner, I thought this was cute too! (Unfortunately I didn't find a campfire down the road where they could sit around it, sadly.
Great, thank you! I think you can just upload it as an image on either this mod page or mine and I should be able to download it.
Also, sorry to say this so soon after you posted a translation but big unexpected update coming today haha. I'll be adding A LOT of new emotes, but not many new UUID in the xml file! (Mostly just things like, Sit10, Sit11, etc.)
Awesome, thanks for all your hard work! I've uploaded the image to your mod page, though unfortunately I've only kept the cropped image, so it may look a little blurry.
