@Riflas you can fix that pretty easily using the Qud: Pronouns Unleashed mod in the workshop, it works in tandem with this one.

@Kuji Nekomata Worked like a charm, thanks so much!

@A Simple Pigeon I think you can fix that yourself. Go to Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\333640\1735379738, select PronounSets.xml, and set EnableConversationalExchange to false.

There are only two genders.

I like this in theory, but having the "you give [character] your pronouns" line at the beginning of every dialogue with a new npc gets annoying rapidly. I think it can just be implied that people in Qud are used to people having unusual pronouns and have integrated it into their small talk. At the very least I'd need to be able to toggle that off to be able to use this mod long-term.

I only just started playing this game, but how do I use this mod? I see it in the character creation options but none of the buttons let me change the gender/pronouns. Thanks!

I don't use this mod or identify by non-standard pronouns but what a lovely idea it is, I hope it helps many with their roleplay! More options are never bad!
Lightbringer 13 Jan @ 10:10am 
This is the most ridiculous waste. Why not actually use the preferred pronoun if you have us go through the effort of choosing one?
Ben 7 Jan @ 7:46am 
@Kelibath Can't you just "roleplay" the gender you want to be ? I mean... like everyone else ? Why is gender/pronouns in this game suddenly a problem ?

Use your imagination... We're talking about a freaking 2bit pixel art / ascii game...

Is it possible to change gender/pronouns mid-playthrough?
smt 15 Dec, 2024 @ 2:40pm 
yeah i was reallllly hoping this would have made it in to release
THE WIZARD 13 Dec, 2024 @ 2:51pm 
echoing sentiments, one of the first mods i recommend to friends new to the game! i know they intend to add this to base game at some point - or so i heard last - and i hope that hasn't changed.
Cast Iron Crow 11 Dec, 2024 @ 6:45am 
How did they get to 1.0 without incorporating this into the base game. I know they already support this. Why not add it to the game?
Kelibath 30 Nov, 2024 @ 9:47am 
I wish the devs would enable this as part of the base game - it'd be fine if it were a toggleable option, but personally if so I hope it starts out as turned ON. Being able to select gender and pronouns as you like them really makes the game more accessible to everyone. After all you're a non-specific entity unless you select something, and the folks complaining don't seem to realise they'd be forced into that sole option without the ability to choose their own RL identity too!

Anyway, amazing job on the mod, and it's been a huge part of my enjoyment of Qud for years now. I couldn't get it working on the last update but I hope it either is formalised as vanilla content or at least stays feasible and working as a mod on 1.0 release :)

Choosing your gender?? In a game where plants walk and you can clone yourself as a goat?? What madness!!

/s obviously

Does this mod still work with the latest update?

Still waiting for a Templar Campaign...
I blame Earthshaker 14 Dec, 2023 @ 4:25am 
Considering this mod's contents is really part of the base game that are normally turned off, it was still odd seeing a disciple of the sightless way decide to identify as a hindren female... so I guess the gender code doesn't bother checking against the NPC's body type? Not that it really matters, but maybe not worth adding such a check unless it gets added as base game functionality.

Fantastic mod, thank you. <3
Rake 12 Nov, 2023 @ 2:19am 
it may be some weird interactions. I had the mod installed at the character creation but I imported the character from an old save with another mod. In the creation menu it allowed for the gender selection but I guess something got override.
chaos  [author] 11 Nov, 2023 @ 4:12pm 
Presumably you didn't have the mod installed at character generation.
Rake 11 Nov, 2023 @ 2:20pm 
I have the mod enabled, why my character's gender is still nonspecific?

What it does is add pronouns and genders. I don't think the gender feature comes into play in practice, you just choose your own gender- but the pronouns are utilized whenever you in the game are referred to in the third person. If I remember correctly characters you interact with also give you their pronouns. it's just a very tiny neat feature, which also lets you change stuff like "water-sib" to just "water-bro" or whatever else you want. Not in base game yet
Sauce 25 Jul, 2023 @ 12:43pm 
gender? i hardly know her
dragon 18 Jul, 2023 @ 2:18pm 
What does this do? And has it already been added to the game?
Blav 6 Jul, 2023 @ 2:16am 
why
jjj105 10 Jun, 2023 @ 1:20pm 
Looks like the latest update made changing pronouns no longer work, the seem to be stuck as what they were on previous version.

Can I identify as a Templar?

Essentially all of this mod's functionality ships with the vanilla game, the mod just turns on certain parts of it (like player character generation support).
I blame Earthshaker 24 Dec, 2022 @ 7:25pm 
How much of this mod (if any) has now been integrated into the vanilla game? The extra Moon Stair patch notes released with the normal Friday patch notes yesterday referenced choosing gender and pronoun sets during character creation. so unclear how necessary this mod still is (and it's Christmas, I'm not uninstalling/disabling this mod just to verify), just curious if this mod is no longer a "sneak preview of functionality..."
Senior Woofers 22 Dec, 2022 @ 5:35am 
Thank you for this mod. I doubt I'll ever use it, but it was funny reading the comments to see all the snowflakes losing their minds over the possibility of choosing your gender in a videogame where mutations are one of the core gameplay mechanics.

It is insane seeing how hateful people are from a mod, the future is bleak

Thank you for this. I look forward to seeing it in the game. ♥

haha i don like gay
wizardlibrarian 28 Jul, 2022 @ 5:43pm 
the only specification that isn’t trivial would be using second-person it/its pronouns

@Nick I thought you were a troll if I'm being honest.
Neo Typhoon Alpha 27 Jul, 2022 @ 8:52pm 
My apologize I thought it was the trolls again. Don't know these days.
AlphaBeard  [developer] 27 Jul, 2022 @ 8:24pm 
Building an it/its custom set to whatever specification you want would be trivial with this mod.
