Does this still work on 3.14?

Take all the time you need, thank you for your hard work!

i still need to animate a small amount of portraits been focusing on some other mods i have as i mod alot of games

THANK YOU SO MUCH <3

i think the author originally had it as a pathfinder module of some kind by the same name as well.
this is the first reboot of it that adds animations to those who never had them

Alien Suns is an impressive portrait mod from many years ago. It stuck with a lot of people because the offered selection actually had genuine variety and otherworldly creatures that felt actually alien and unique. The author is long since missing and moved on in their life so we try to keep it alive.

What even is this and what the hell is alien suns?

its oki

ignore my comment.i was just stupid.forgot to also install the original mod

hey guys.have anyone else the bug that some of the mod portrait are just oversized portrait of vanilla portraits.i bought the season pass so maybe its that.

Sorry about the wait. i finally have a fix for the descriptor file in the discussions!

Probably not from me sadly

will we see an updated atmospheres mod too?

Yes. at work rn so i can't give a detailed walk through rn

oh is there a way to fix the Alien Suns not getting a descriptor file?

i haven't seen any incompatibles with other portrait mods myself. Try loading just Alien Suns and this mod to check for incompatibilities.

Rediscovered is loaded after the original alien suns mod. Should it be the other way around?

The only thing I can think of if it isn't a load order issue is that I have some mods enabled (that I made) which add new portraits. The mods add portraits to new classes, so don't modify the portrait categories already in the game, but could it still be a compatibility concern?

weird, is alien suns rediscovered loaded after alien suns? that's the only other thing i can think of

No red error - just a yellow "Out of date" alert.

is there a red error next to alien suns in your load order? i have had this issue a few times where alien suns seems to download without a descriptor file for some reason

I've got both this mod and the original alien suns enabled - but only a few portraits from the mod are appearing, with many other portraits just resembling duplicates of vanilla portraits in the incorrect categories (fungoid in the molluscoid section for example).

Eye of Rah

Perhaps I've seen too many species mods that incorporate additional content.

there are no new civics. what gave you that impression?

Are there any new civic added?

Excellent!

What is this mod for?

TYSM

Thanks for the quick reply, unfortunately, that didnt seem to work, at least, with unsubscribing and resubscribing, im going to see if like there might be lingering files? im not sure where I would find them though

you might need to manually remove the original alien suns and resub to it

For some reason, I cant load in the original alien suns, it says that its missing a descriptor file

Yeah, the original plan was to get into contact with the original mod creator: S.C. Watson, and get animated portraits of all the outer rim stuff done. but he never contacted me. I had some of the portraits animated for a while for use with friends while i waited. recently i just bit the bullet since i have tired several ways of contacting him and got no response. i still have 3 portraits left to animate. But right now i am actually working on a mod i can properly call my own. it's nearing completion, hope you guys like ship sets!

Well done on the animations - on seeing this I assumed it was just another one of those 'update' mods where someone makes a few minor text changes (like just changing the version number) but you've really built upon the previous mod and added some unique value of your own here.

Front Page Hype!

Noice :)

Thanks

Can guarantee it works with the new instruction.

do you have the original alien suns installed?

Only some of the portraits appear and majority of them are mis-categorized by the looks of it?

Thank you so very much for this.

nice

and no, i don't have any plans to revive Alien Suns: Atmospheres

yes, they are sorted into the vanilla categories

Are they sorted into the categories like mammals, Arthtropods etc.?

any plans to revive Alien Suns: Atmospheres?

Oh rad, I've missed Alien Suns! Thanks for reviving it!

I was literally just looking into starting to mod myself, just to do exactly this. Thank you so much! These portraits have always been my favorites, I love how unapologetically alien they are

I am glad you enjoy them! I don't have an ETA for when the last 3 portraits from outer rim will be animated and added. But i am happy that the majority of the outer rim group is finally getting the animation treatment they deserve, and animated by me no less!

My man you have no idea of how much I love these portraits and how much I thank you for taking them back into Stellaris !!!

Thanks for the confirmation! enjoy the mod
