Okay? First of all, you are using the old mod. Second of all, you need a race extender to use any modded race. Please subscribe to the new one.

I apologize for the roughness of my previous response. I just got done with schoolwork and was feeling rather frustrated.

Only ship pets would make good playable races, tbh. There's a reason the chicken and fennix mods are on hiatus.
Sentient Cookie  [author] 24 Feb, 2018 @ 11:25am 
And going along with that, I don't think I will either as making non-humanoid races is incredibly difficult. Also, Poptops would need a LOT of custom sprite work just to make them semi-playable. I just don't have the time or patience to tackle another non-human playable species at this time.
BlueLeafy  [author] 24 Feb, 2018 @ 11:20am 
No.

Besides, I'm not actively developing this anymore. Sentient Cookie is.

The new Playable Cats Redux mod is now available!

Please make sure to read through the description and update notes to see what's changed and what's planned. Also, please unsubscribe from this mod before you switch over to the new mod as it uses the same files and is not compatible with this mod.

You need some kind of race extender as already mentioned in the description and several comments below. This is something all modded species requires.

i cant finde the race ):
Sentient Cookie  [author] 6 Feb, 2018 @ 1:56pm 
Thanks for the suggestions! I'll look into their mod and see if I can get permission to use their assets for the redux cats. :D

Actually, I'm wondering if there's a way to make it possible to use existing pet collars as armor... Or, maybe I could just simply see about creating new armor while using the existing collar item sprites. I know there's another mod that adds in additional collars and some new sprites to go with them; I'll see if I can get permission to use their assets too.

There's a lot more work involved than I thought, especially since I'm very new to coding. :D

I noticed that the Playable Chicken mod made some special outfits for the chickens; From what I can tell, they're a single piece of clothing that covers over the body.

Once I figure out where I can put a collar on the body, I think making several different ones will come easier. I can just copy/paste the files and edit them accordingly.
BlueLeafy  [author] 6 Feb, 2018 @ 1:44pm 
That is true. At the very least, you might be able to make the collar armor show up. (I will admit I was too lazy; editing clothes is...difficult... Due to not knowing where the body is.)

And there is a fellow on steam that's put hats on pet cats, so you might be able to do something similar, or even borrow it, since this just uses the default pet cat animations and stuff.
Sentient Cookie  [author] 6 Feb, 2018 @ 9:00am 
@TheBlueLeafeon That's a pretty good idea. I was originally going to just leave it as-is, but since you really can't tell the sexes apart, that might be a good option, though it may break existing characters and that's something I really want to avoid. I want players to be able to easily switch to the new redux mod without anything breaking for them or without them losing their existing characters.

Coincidentally, I was considering attempting to add additional fur pattern types [like stripes and spots] for more of a variety.

I still have yet to figure out how to make existing clothing work for the cats. If anything, I'll attempt to make some capes and hats for them.

@Luna I'll make sure to add in purple, especially since it's my favorite color. :D
BlueLeafy  [author] 6 Feb, 2018 @ 4:55am 
Yes this works with Frackin. I had the mod installed for a little while, and found no errors. By the way, @sentient cookie: I had an idea with the siamese-versus-normal-coats: perhaps we can make those into male/female variants (in mechanics only; it'd really just be a coat type) instead?

Also, @Luna: I've passed the baton to sentient cookie, but I never realized I didn't add purple to the color list! Sorry about that!
ratblade 3 Feb, 2018 @ 5:28pm 
Thanks
MongooseCalledFred 2 Feb, 2018 @ 12:55pm 
Try adding a race extender. There's a link in the description.
ratblade 2 Feb, 2018 @ 12:41pm 
it doesn't show the cat in the Charactor Creation
ratblade 2 Feb, 2018 @ 12:36pm 
the mod never works for me, is there something im missing?
NoctisTheBogWitch 2 Feb, 2018 @ 7:03am 
Could you please add dark purple and light purple? I want to make my OC, and I cannot with the colors provided. Thank You. - Luna
Sentient Cookie  [author] 29 Jan, 2018 @ 6:33pm 
Yes, it does. It just adds in a new race, which requires some kind of race extender to use.
LuckyMew 29 Jan, 2018 @ 6:17pm 
Does this work in Frackin?
Sentient Cookie  [author] 24 Jan, 2018 @ 7:18am 
Alright. Thanks for letting me know. I was hoping that I would be able to merge them and create a patch with the fish ship for those that would rather use it instead.
BlueLeafy  [author] 24 Jan, 2018 @ 3:28am 
The ship mod cannot be merged without affecting files; any changes to the ship will cause blocks and items in the current layout to be stuck out-of-bounds, and rather permanently, as well. The siamese mod can be merged easily, as all it does is change sprites.
Sentient Cookie  [author] 23 Jan, 2018 @ 9:12pm 
I just really like cats [although I know that wasn't directed towards me]. I plan on adding more names to the random-generated list. I want to put in some ridiculous ones too. :D

I'm also going to make a patch for those of you who never subscribed to the Ship and Siamese add-ons since I will be merging them into the main mod. I want to try and make sure you all will be able to continue to use your existing characters and ships without accidentally breaking them.
Soshimi 23 Jan, 2018 @ 9:04pm 
Clearly a Warriors fan. One of the random names is "Leafpool", the Thunderclan medicine cat in Omen of the Stars
Sentient Cookie  [author] 23 Jan, 2018 @ 9:15am 
I'll make sure to give credit where it is due. :D
Sentient Cookie  [author] 23 Jan, 2018 @ 8:35am 
I'll do my best. I already have some ideas for some lore additions.
BlueLeafy  [author] 23 Jan, 2018 @ 8:35am 
Also, sorry if it seems like I was ignoring you skittles, I was going to agree if nobody else stepped up, haha.
BlueLeafy  [author] 23 Jan, 2018 @ 8:33am 
Oh, and make sure to give credits to Skittles and TheAdmiral. I don't really care if I receive credit or not, but if you want to credit me too, go ahead.
Sentient Cookie  [author] 23 Jan, 2018 @ 8:33am 
Thank you! :D
DrPvtSkittles 23 Jan, 2018 @ 8:32am 
The torched has been passed Sentient Cookie xD I wish you well!
BlueLeafy  [author] 23 Jan, 2018 @ 8:32am 
Sentient Cookie: Go ahead! I'll be glad to hand it over to someone with more ambition than I have, especially since it wasn't exactly my idea in the first place lol. Make sure to post a link here so that I'll know where the new mods are, and then I can let people know where to find the new updates. :)
Sentient Cookie  [author] 23 Jan, 2018 @ 5:49am 
@TheBlueLeafeon @Skittles I also wouldn't mind helping to look after this mod, although I'm still pretty new to modding. Coincidentally, I was thinking of attempting to make custom clothing, trying to patch existing clothing [or make a cat-only variant of some], and trying to see if the fall damage modifier could be patched to just the cat species. I also wanted to merge the Siamese add-on mod with this one. I just need your permission to use your assets.
Xylo 1 Jan, 2018 @ 9:47pm 
Meanwhile, here I am hoping more playable creatures is created by whoever. As much as the cats are cute, I must see a poptop or weasel someday
DrPvtSkittles 31 Dec, 2017 @ 8:29am 
If you cant find anyone, I will look after your mod, like I did the zombees. Only if you want.

watching a cat that feeds a cat is wierd....
BlueLeafy  [author] 14 Dec, 2017 @ 5:42am 
If anyone is better at mod-making than I am, and want to pick this project up for improvements, I believe it's time for me to pass the baton on to someone who has more time/knowledge to get these things done. I'd like to see this mod get as big as the Avali or Felins mods, but I just don't have the time and energy to do so.
Plague 25 Nov, 2017 @ 4:32pm 
fuck I wish I knew this before I made my cat so I could name him "professor c" (plz no one steals)
BlueLeafy  [author] 25 Nov, 2017 @ 3:25pm 
@Plague Knight: Probably, but it's part of the kitties' lore that they use telekenesis to use human objects, since, you know, they don't have opposable thumbs.
Plague 25 Nov, 2017 @ 3:23pm 
matter mantiplationatatatationer floats can I change this
Jojy Guy 21 Oct, 2017 @ 10:16am 
Ah, good point.
BlueLeafy  [author] 20 Oct, 2017 @ 4:05pm 
Jojy Guy: Well, you get powerups that make you capable of breathing anywhere fairly quickly, so I don't consider it that much of an issue.
Jojy Guy 14 Oct, 2017 @ 2:01pm 
Amazing.. But, if you go under some things, like if you go through a 2 tall tunnel, you start suffocating. It's okay, because technically your not supposed to go through those, but your a tiny kitty so...
