how do i make me character start with items
Chonixtu  [author] 9 Jun, 2022 @ 1:06pm 
uh?? I don't think so,, most likely will have to give them atleast three of one mushroom, you can atleast edit the stats to be base or around it with items like mini mush and such

Guiiiiiz I don't know LUA and I need help if possible to do something with a custum character...

Is possible to make the new character start with alredy a transformation? That's pretty easy if I make him start the run with 3 object that give the choosen transformation but I want make him start as fun guy without giving him any mushroom items... Also I want change the original sprite of the transformation with a modded one if possible.

Hmmm I think it should just move the mod into the repentance mod folders instead of afterbirth

Sorry for late reply, and I finally found how to do it after hours of complications for no reason, but now my question is how do i make costumes for lets say when my character uses the book of belial of gets growth hormones, because it always switches back to the default isaac model for that and its just isaac's head with growth hormones on a black body lol
