I miss you.... so..... much.....

Stunningly, save for the fact that neither species nor homeworld names will autogenerate, this mod seems to still work

looks dope

I would still love to have a machine variant of this though, me having irrational obsession with hot robots and or that.

That's very nice to hear. Can't wait to play with the updated version.

GOOD NEWS! This Mod still works in V2.5.1 !

why not both x

i am no legend. just a artist that loves making aliens.

You’re a legend

Another major update is on the way! life got in the way so I couldn't do much, if any work on this. I'll have it released by next week!

This Mod still works in V2.3.3, but the creatures have no Species Names. Their names are blank. Please remember to add Species Names!

Update?

Oops! that is a bug. I'll be able to fix that within the next week. sorry for the lack of updates!

@Zergash I've run into the same issue with the one Viskal empire I've seen spawn.

The Viscal Empires that Spawn have no Names picked for their race, or Empire. Do you know why?

update will be hopefully soon! i've been working on updated potraits. and a few other things!

Update?

NSC compatible namelists always appreciated ;) - NSC adds a few ship lists, but that's up to you! It's not as big of an issue at all. You are welcome for the ideas, anything to add a few new looks to my galaxy.

oh! those are very good ideas. a name list especially. i will let you know whwn i add them!

I don't believe you need a prebuilt, in fact I discourage that. I manually remove all prebuilt empires because I use a number of competing mods which mean I end up having to edit all the prebuilts to make them compatible and at that point I just prefer my own empires. prebuilts as optional add-on? That I encourage. What you need to do is add a few name-lists and build out the species a bit more. Not create a faction FOR it. Alternatively you can turn off the visopod from being included in random games. At least thats what I believe from my brief look at it.

oh no! currently there is no pre-built empire for the viskal. but the assets and the models are all there! in the next update i could add in a pre-built.

Not sure if this is species-name related, but when this race gets put in games I only get it without a species name or empire name.

Thx Bliss

oh man, sorry that the mod took so long to work on your end! They would live on a desert-planet of some sort. and their government is militant, but primarily spiritual.

Hey finally got the mod working! and was wondering what kind of planet they live on?and what kind of government they would have?

My goal is to hopefully have all of the other variations of the viskal added onto this mod! Currently figuring out how to do that.

Were you planning to also add the Viskal Triask and Vera down the line?

@nightlock: THEY WILL NEVER KNOW..

@Cowboy!: I know, right? i always loved the face-less knight aesthetic. now it's barely mentioned at all. It's quite a shame, really.

@Mrbig: you absolute monster. how dare you. i'll have you know that I graduated top of my...
/s (that's really funny!)

Really glad to see infinity blade inspired stuff actually, that game was great and really impressive at the time, and I rarely see it talked about.

@Doodlebliss XD
dont let value catch you say that

Calvar, from the planet Iphinoe.
Their deadliest and most hated rival, Kevlar, from the planet Anidoroid.
As well as their deep blue coloured cousins, from the planet Noikae.

@Nightlock: Unlike valve. I get my stuff done!

@Dankest moth: It's made entirely by me! there is no reference to any other major fictional races

@CowboyDirtydan: I've been found out! heck!

@Angry-Redhead: You will, hopefully~

Good stuff, subbed. Hope to see some more customisation in the future.

no idea what this is besides a really nice looking in game "race" so if it was supposed to reference something its entirely lost on me, however, its sexy so thanks for making it

here it is! the mod we all been waiting for!

Those helmets remind me of infinity blade designs.

@Janx: maybe some time! I lost all the source files to the other variations. i could just install them and republish them. but they will be independent from the mods on the workshop already.

@Dazric: Aliens of my own creation! inspired by knights, and the science of speculative xenobiology. For a more literal answer; Viskal roughly translates into "Armored warrior."

What are Viskal?

any chance of the other versions being updated for 2.2? I love these ones, but having choice is always nice.

Hello! thank you all for the fantastic comments. if i could pin them like discord, i totally would!

@jackdebruce: I don't know why it's not showing up in your mod library! it could be a bug with steam. I don't know if this would help, but try the following

1) Unsubscribe to the mod, and resubscribe?
2) maybe uninstall stellaris, and do step one?
3) Do step one, but restart steam, then resubscribe?

@Edeon: Oh man, i haven't noticed that bug! no, the viskal do not have custom insults!
i will try to rectify this in the next update.

Hey i've subscribed to da mod and it isn't showing up in my mod library help Plz

I've noticed that when playing as the Viskal, one recieves the minor - yet infamous - "avast, ye (insult)" custom species bug.

Do the Viskal not have custom species insults, or are the files not pointing to the proper entry?

Without a doubt the most uniquely designed species on the workshop. Really love the style across all of your Viskal projects

Cool beans, dude! I like it!

that means a lot, thank you! sensible design is important to me. i would totally do more races. but it appears my coding is a bit.. Lackluster as i have perhaps, maybe stated too much?

The coding does a rather dumb thing, and ultimately disallows me using two races made by me.

Once i figure out how to deal with this lil problem. i'll churn out more aliens out of my imagination.

I didn't know about these guys, it's interesting how your mod history is publishing an evolving depiction of your invented race.
They look very cool, one of the few mod races sensible enough for me to want to play as.

will test out to see how this looks, first timer

There may be some persistent bugs as i am no coder! but i promise to improve this as i have with my previous mods. I hope you support me as I continue trying to produce fantastic mods for this community!
