It would be nice for an addon for the Protogen Mod so that the walls/layout could be modified

Is it possible that you can add Elithian Races Mod - Aegi, this race ship could use a ship console for hull partslike your the walls mod very much

It would be nice if there was a way to add a mod for Big Iron dark version https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1866848635 for both Better Ships and Tier Nine Ships!

Does anybody plan to make an addon for the lucario race by zancuno any time soon?

I can't craft the wall groove as a hylotl
Joe 18 May, 2020 @ 10:28am 
Ah well thanks for the heads up , i still play it with my avian crew and its awesome mod still
Immirik  [author] 16 May, 2020 @ 12:44pm 
@chexo4 - It supports the alternate ship, yes ^^

@Joe - Thank you for the praise! Unfortunately the chance of me working on any more species gets lower and lower as time goes on... I've been getting caught up in other projects and obligations, and it leaves me little time to work on fixing, testing and updating existing species, let alone add support to new ones :(

I'm still thinking about how to work things out, but for the time being, I'm afraid I can't really offer much other than reiterate that if anyone wants to extract any of those mods, play around with their content and try something on their own, I'm absolutely ok with it ^^ Unfortunately with how Better Ships works, doing a version for a new race is not really -that- work-heavy, but it'd require some familiarity with the species and ship files...
Joe 7 May, 2020 @ 8:54am 
Any ideas when lyceen will be compatable? i read the suggestions page and i see that its 3rd in line , but i havent really seen anything new lately and was curious if it was still being worked on . I tried to make it work myself following this gude:https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1625317607 but so far has had no luck . Either way its an awesome mod and been having alot of fun with it with the vanilla races!
chexo4 2 May, 2020 @ 12:26pm 
Does this support the Avali Alternate ship or will I have to choose between that and the Avali Ship?
Immirik  [author] 26 Feb, 2020 @ 11:20am 
Oh! Absolutely ^^ Would be a pleasure to be part of it! If you need anything from me, send me a friend request and we can talk over PMs, and I'd be glad to help with whatever may be needed as well ^^

Hey, I'd like to implement some elements of these mods in an overhaul mod I'm working on, with full credit. Would you be alright with that?
Immirik  [author] 29 Dec, 2019 @ 7:24am 
UPDATE: Finally got around updating FU to 5.0, keeping up with changes made to the Thelusian, Xi, Juux, etc. Still a few things missing, but I'll have to wait until FU updates with definitive versions of the ships and objects (hopefully not adding even more races in the process >_>")
Immirik  [author] 26 Dec, 2019 @ 9:12pm 
Ok, I finally got to take a look, and unfortunately I can't replicate the problem with the Glitch chair crashing the game... Now that I see it, if you have the Curvy Castle, do you also have the Better Ships Curvy Castle addon?

Also, gonna take the opportunity to give an update here: I'm checking the issues reported in the mods, and am looking into them one by one. I fixed the Avali Ship one finally so it works with the recent update in the avali mod. Can't seem to replicate other issues so far though...

If someone still has an issue with any of the mods, I'm gonna ask that you remind me as well, it's been a long time since I've been here and I lost a bit of track on the status of everything, sorry ><"
Immirik  [author] 2 Dec, 2019 @ 4:11pm 
oh shoot! Really sorry, but I'll admit I haven't had the opportunity to test the issue, and idk when I'll be able to get to it :( Will keep the issue in mind though, and check it out as soon as I become able
Hyperdino 2 Dec, 2019 @ 12:08pm 
thanks!! What about the glitch race chair crashing my game?
Immirik  [author] 30 Nov, 2019 @ 5:19am 
It will probably screw up your ship, requiring you to reset it in order to have it working properly, unfortunately... so I recommend taking everything important off before uninstalling.
Hyperdino 22 Nov, 2019 @ 4:51am 
Wait,is this mod safe to uninstall? Will it corrupt my character files if I do?
Hyperdino 8 Nov, 2019 @ 4:50pm 
When I use the glitch chair to drive the ship it crashes the game.I believe this is because of the Curvy's castle for glitch mod,which I have gotten rid of,but seemingly still causes problems despite being deleted.How do I fix this?
Buck608 28 Sep, 2019 @ 9:28am 
can you add the pony modpack to this plz if thats ok with you
Immirik  [author] 11 Aug, 2019 @ 11:04am 
Heeeeey thank you for contacting me!
Well, no worries about that, I'm working on it right now!

Really didn't need much, actually, I just had to add a patch to the "pppenguin" species, add the Reborn mod to my metadata, and it seems to be working flawlessly for me. Now I just need to add the recipes, and then I'll update the mods with both 5.0 stuff and Penguin Piracy Reborn support ^^

Was really glad to see the penguins back, best wishes!
greyedgaymer 11 Aug, 2019 @ 9:56am 
Hey! Author of Penguin Piracy Reborn, here- How would I go about adding support for Better Ships? Even though I use it all the time, I completely forgot about adding support for it!
Immirik  [author] 10 Aug, 2019 @ 2:05pm 
UPDATE: Finally done with most of the "5.0" update to the collection. Now ship objects are removable (except for the teleporter) and craftable. This is, I hope, the last major update for the mods.

I will now slow down a bit again, and wait for a while to see if any issue arise. After that, I'll delete the unneded Walls mods (Kazdra Walls, Deer Walls, Galaxy Foxes Walls).

Only three mods still need updates - Penguins, Galaxy Foxes, and Frackin' Universe. I'll get to those as soon as I'm able.
Immirik  [author] 8 Aug, 2019 @ 1:46pm 
WARNING : As a result of upcoming changes to the Better Ships Mods, a few mods will be no longer needed (since all objects and walls will be obtained via buying their respective ship console with Penguin Pete).

These mods are: Better Ships - Deerfolk Walls, and Better Ships - Galaxy Foxes Walls

If you want to, you can unsubscribe from these mods. Alternative, you can (if you haven't already) subscribe to the Better Ships - Deerfolk Ship mod and/or the Better Ships - Galaxy Foxes Ship, which will have actual changes to differenciate their ships from the vanilla ones
Immirik  [author] 27 Jul, 2019 @ 10:48pm 
UPDATE - For vanilla species, ship objects should be both removable and craftable at the ship console. See more details here .
Pesto Posta 20 Jul, 2019 @ 1:36pm 
Oh, sorry I miss the "issues" board, thanks for the quick reply :)
Immirik  [author] 20 Jul, 2019 @ 1:30pm 
@HENTAI - Sorry, I didn't understand the question ^^; if you mean what you should install for FU, the Installation Guide section gives an idea of what each mod does. (Mind you the FU stuff is still lacking support for some reaces, which I'm working on atm)
Immirik  [author] 20 Jul, 2019 @ 1:30pm 
@Pesto Posta - Having a ship that can still be upgraded is preferable, because otherwise you'd have to reset your ship in order for collisions to be created properly. A new game is ideal since there'd be no risk of messing up an already decorated ship.

I wrote more about this in the Issues thread:
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/workshop/filedetails/discussion/1588559121/1779387743947908630/

But the tl;dr of it is:
- New Character: no issue is to be expected.
- Existing Character: either upgrade or reset the ship by deleting the .shipworld file associated with it. In either case, move important stuff out of the ship if you want to be 1000% safe.
- If neither resetting or upgrading is not an option: Use a mod to manually remove any unusual collisions within the existing ship.
Pesto Posta 20 Jul, 2019 @ 1:16pm 
Is a new game required for this mod to work?
Работяга 14 Jul, 2019 @ 2:36pm 
what can be set from this for FU?:steambored:
Buck608 7 Jul, 2019 @ 8:45pm 
thx
Immirik  [author] 7 Jul, 2019 @ 8:33pm 
alright, was a change in the internal name. should be fixed now ^^
Buck608 7 Jul, 2019 @ 12:03pm 
ok thx
Immirik  [author] 7 Jul, 2019 @ 11:24am 
Mmm yeah, getting the same issue... Possibly the mod got updated and something about the species or ship paths changed? I'll check it out and fix it as soon as possible!
Buck608 7 Jul, 2019 @ 11:16am 
yes i have all those
Immirik  [author] 7 Jul, 2019 @ 10:11am 
@Buck608 - Gonna check it out. Just confirm, do you have all the mods required? Which would be Better Ships - Things, Better Ships Walls, Better Ships - Galaxy Foxes Walls, and Better Ships - Galaxy Foxes Ships, right?

@InfernalDragon - They're already supported, thankfully ^^
Bahamut 6 Jul, 2019 @ 6:16pm 
so what do i need to get it to work with the elduukhar
Buck608 6 Jul, 2019 @ 5:23pm 
the background is the normal background and the walls are not breakable
Immirik  [author] 6 Jul, 2019 @ 3:00pm 
@Cora - Fixed ^^

@Buck608 - Gonna check it out later. Are there any inconsistencies in the ship other than that? Would you be able to send a screenshot?

@InfernalDragon - Yup, but only for a few races. Fenerox, Slime, Juux, Veluu and Skath are still being worked on, and I'll try having an update for them ASAP.
Bahamut 6 Jul, 2019 @ 12:38pm 
does this work with fracking universe races
Buck608 30 Jun, 2019 @ 12:59pm 
the Galaxy Foxes stuff wont work for me the walls and background dont appear
Cora 30 Jun, 2019 @ 12:02am 
when following the link from the Lamia Ship... get sent to the Inkling Ship instead https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1681159726
Immirik  [author] 26 Jun, 2019 @ 10:02pm 
@Beansprout - Ah, it's very nice!! Alright, added to the list <3 Thank you for the heads up ^^
@Uejie - Can see about it ^^
Beansprout 25 Jun, 2019 @ 9:12pm 
Hey Immirik! Finally got around to uploading some additions to your collection. Its very purple.
One and Two
Immirik  [author] 21 Jun, 2019 @ 11:35am 
Will add them to my list. No telling when I'll be able to work on them though ;_;
Vone_Bon 21 Jun, 2019 @ 6:11am 
would be cool if Lastree and Indix race's had better ships too.
TripodRanger 16 Jun, 2019 @ 11:20am 
Thanks.
Buck608 16 Jun, 2019 @ 8:31am 
ok thx
Immirik  [author] 15 Jun, 2019 @ 9:32pm 
@TripodRanger - Derp, can't believe I missed answering you at the time, sorry >< but for the sake of answering, yeah, they do work. If you only use BYOS, "ship" mods are not really that necessary, but no harm comes from having them either ^^

@Buck608 - Gonna add to the list ^^ I took a break from making mods though, so I can't say it will be done in a while...
Buck608 15 Jun, 2019 @ 10:03am 
can you make a argonian one
