Q: Any thoughts to flip these into researchable / (animal) sourced Xenogenes? Literally make your own over time... "Mad scientist play-through."

Great mod!

They shouldn't have generated with that xenotype... was it a player/starting pawn? I might have missed specifying baseliner for starter player pawnkinds.

Regardless, looking at those body genes it looks like they don't have the proper gene tag applied to them so it bypasses the gene blacklist I setup to prevent this. I don't have any textures for a robot body gene, so if a monstergirl gets that gene the whole body texture would be missing.

i had a pawn generate with steel enforcer genes (from big & small simply robots) and the thrumbogirl background, is it normal when that happens for the body texture to be a missing texture?

Minor red error when ran alongside Pawnmorpher. Haven't tested it at all; I've been combing my modlist for signs of a bigger bug to do with Medieval Overhaul's Dark Wood. If I had to guess, the red error probably just means you can't Pawnmorph a Pawn into any of the Monstergirl Races creatures, which I never would have thought to try anyway.

Updated to 1.6 unstable.

For now you need to use the Dev version of HAR on the workshop.

I only did some cursory testing so if you find something broken please let me know.

There is an alternate textures patch linked in the description.

As for the other things, I have this mod in "maintenance mode" at the moment so I'm not planning any significant development at this time.

So, are you gonna add any new monsters? Maybe a texture update, or what about some more functionality(like quests or powers)? Just wondering if this mod is gonna expand on the original monster girls concept.

Unfortunate, but thanks for the reply.

I don't currently plan on it.

Any chance you intend to take over the More Monster Girls & More Monster Girls Enhanced mods, since the original author no longer intends to update them?

I would also love a biotech version with gene's for the monster girls. It'd be great to mix and match and create new cross species versions and be able to throw them into gene extractors.

there are other mods i use to make monstergirls with biotech but i love the art from this one alot

i would love a biotech version so much then i could make have hybrid monstergirls

@razar1 @nico_zip So? Why can’t there be TWO versions of Monstergirl Races: one that uses the current race and body settings system and one that uses the (arguably better) gene system from Biotech?

@gunns22 Those are just straight race and body settings. Just like how muffalo are milkable and shearable and how animals have different body parts than humans do.

I just changed the item that gets generated from milking/shearing. And gave each race a custom body with some custom prosthetics for the custom parts. No genes were involved in that.

For once i prefer the not dependace to a DLC I dont own, that makes it a better mod imo.
Mods that have DLC dependencies aren't bad but its just they have more limited audience.

@razar1 What I WANT to transfer between colonists is the unique quirks of the Monster Girls. The Thrumbo Girl's horn, the milk and fur production of the mammal girls, Harpy eggs and Slime jelly and Arcane Fluid from the Baphomet! If they're not governed by special modded Genes, how the hell did you make them work!?

@gunns22 yeah Alpha Memes has to fix that. If a race is milkable and has a custom npc faction, Alpha Memes doesn't handle that and causes faction leader generation failures.

As for the backstories, I'm not sure what you mean. They only affect skills and the label you see. They also don't have any unique genes so I'm not sure what traits you are cheating to transfer.

Bug Desc: For some bizarre reason, whenever I generate a world with this mod installed, there's only a single faction base per faction. This bug persists whenever I generate a new world.

Other Notes: I also think your choice of having monster girls be governed by backstories rather than Xenotypes is questionable at best. I'd like to be able to splice the monster girls' production genes into other colonists, rather than resort to outright cheating to transfer those special traits.

@razar1 Thanks, problem solved, I had to resubscribe to the mod in order to force the update. Sorry for the niche bug I tend to somehow always find those.

Now i'll go back to enjoy my Monstergirls colony.

@nico_zip I just pushed a fix for this. Turns out I introduced a bug when adding support for the Alternate Textures that would cause wildly incorrect offsets and apparel sizing when the alternate textures mod was not present.

Force Steam to re-download the mod and it *should* be resolved.

@razar1 Sadly no, I try reloading the save multiple time including restarting the game, just to make sure i also got rid of any mod that could interfere with the head graphics.

I just tried using the dev mode tool you mentioned but it does nothing, i click on the pawn but nothing happens, maybe i'm using it wrong?

@nico_zip Does the issue persist when saving/loading?

You could also try going into dev mode and using the re-resolve graphics tool on the pawn to see if that fixes it.

I'm having an issue after disabling the alternate textures from this mod. I started a game using this mod and its alternate textures. Recently I managed to find a Slime girl but i kinda didn't liked how she ended up looking as i didn't find her to be distinctively a Slimegirl.

Short story, I disabled the alternate textures mod and then the Slime girl got her head detached from her body and it levitates above her body leaving almost a block tall of void between the body and the floating head.

Any idea how to fix this? for reference I only own the base game and Ideology DLC.

Wild monstegirls faction doesn't have any bases, but it does require a faction leader, which I believe is what is failing to generate. Something in Alpha memes isn't happy.

I think the issue isn't the mods "Monstergirl Races" being loaded but how the "Wild monstergirls" faction bases generate during world creation. Normal faction base spawning is still possible with the mod loaded if "Wild monstergirls" disabled during world creation, if enabled it will prevent ~90%-100% of other faction bases from spawning. This is quite a problematic bug since it can/will cause factions (e.g. Fallen Empire) to fail to generate even if enabled during world generation.

Hmm the game complains about the Alpha Meme StatPart_MaxNutrition_CattlePrecept when trying to generate faction leaders.

I'm having the same issue as the person below me, so I dont think its isolated.

It seems a recent patch to Alpha Memes has create a soft incompatibility between it and this mod. If all two mods are in the same mod list,on world generation all faction are limited to 1 settlement. Mods like faction control do not change this. Have tested with minimum mods.

@razar1 I have (apparently) solved the 'no surgeries' issue for Monstergirl Races (MGR), by moving it early in my modlist, before all medical mods. I used RimSort to edit the mod rules for MGR, making sure MGR loads *after* Humanoid Alien Races, and *before* every mod with the letters 'medic', 'bionic', 'prosth', 'cybern', 'implant', 'organ', or 'surg' in their names. i *just* loaded the game where the surgery bills finally appear, so i have not yet tested it, nor do i know which particular mod causes the problem. But i wanted to let you know that there does seem to be a fix, and MGR is apparently not the source of the problem. Thank you!

@Trivia Vanille No, this is a standalone mod.
@gunns22 It might get confusing having both Animal and 'Pawn' monstergirls at the same time.

Do you recommend running this mod alongside More Monster Girls?

@razar1 all surgeries. The only bills appearing on the Operations tab are 'Administer XXX', such as 'Administer luciferium'. No removing parts, extracting hemogen, installing prosthetcs, etc. I have a *very* heavily modified game, so this is probably an interaction with some medical mod. Now that I know that this is not expected behavior, I am going to try moving Monstergirl Races later in my load order. Thank you!

Do i need to have MonsterGirlsPlus installed for this to work?

@Kaelynz all surgeries or just specific ones? I've not seen any issues with that before.

I can't schedule surgeries on my monstergirl pawns, for some reason (I have a foxgirl, a wolfgirl, and a baphomet). I can schedule surgeries just fine on all my other pawns, both baseliners and xenos. Is this an known problem with this mod, or am i missing something?

Pawn Races

Are these added pawn races or are they animal races

This mod doesn't have arachne in it.

I have not added CE support myself, so I dunno if CE works or not with this mod.

It doesn't surprise me the the NL body mod doesn't work. None of the races in this mod use the human textures.

For the base game pawn randomizer settling on a specific race and not changing, If I remember that issue right it should be happening for any race mod (I forget if that was addressed in some way with HAR). Each pawn 'slot' will end up with a certain race. A mod like character editor will allow for better control over which pawns are added and what races they are.

The xenotypes in this particular mod were made for the NPC faction. You can technically pick them for your pawns, but they don't have any visual genes on them so they shouldn't affect how your pawns look.

I tried CE and NL apparel paper pattern on catgirl, wolfgirl, arachne, centaur and slime. NL body mod didn't work either.
Besides the way they're implemented being super janky, as in they are generated sometimes in a broken way via the character randomizer and once a colonist is a monstergirl, there is no changing that either. Deliberately generating one required me to select them both in the alien drop down menu, and the xenotype menu, which didn't inspire much confidence either.

I've played some janky mods, but with this one I got a sinking feeling before the playthrough even started.

Really? Which races? I was pretty sure I had most apparel appearing 'fine' on them.

really broken apparel, the body clashes with all sorts of stuff

will we get genes for these races?

ok, thank you :)

They are separate races.

Are the races added considered Xenotypes now with biotech? or are we using separate race entries like we used to?

oh i see. ok cool. thanks for letting me know. love the mod btw.

@Gunsmith That is intentional. Since the children are currently just using adult textures, children apparel would not fit properly.

hi. i think i found a small bug. its nothing breaking but i did notice it.
the kids born from the monster girls cant wear kid clothing. they have to get adult clothing.
