Do you want to create your own race mod, but you don't know where to start? This is the mod for you! AND ITS NOW EVEN EASIER.
If you need a guide to follow try this: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1380289410
How to use:
Run the batch file ADVANCED_RACE_TEMPLATE_EASY_SETUP.bat. Pick a name for your race USING ONLY LOWERCASE and NO SPACES, press enter and BAMN. That's all there is to it.
A more step by step instruction
Starting with a fresh template:
Unzip the file and put it into your mods folder.
Run the .bat file and choose a name longer than 3 characters, lowercase only, no spaces. (note .bat files are for windows only)
Open starbound and you should see a pale bald human with the female wearing green in your list.
If you do, then hoorah! you can now begin editing, if not, check your log file at starbound/storage. You can open it up in notepad++
If you aren't running windows then you will either need a program or to manually change all instances of skadvtest to your chosen race name.
Known issues from bat:
Check dialog files to make sure they have been renamed by the bat file.
