I'm here when ready. Just moving some things around for a custom race I'm working on. Someone had a better name for them. I just took a bit to warm up to it.

Let's DM and chat about it there.

I think I'm done with all the fixes and additions, but I won't upload a copy without permission.

Alternatively I could just hand what's been done to you.
I'm in the Starbound Discord.

Sorry for the late reply. I only just noticed. Still doing things, like recreating the Halloween Mod's title logo at a higher resolution, after figuring out what the font is. I'm also thinking of including it in the main mod as an extra for people using OpenStarbound, which adds the ability to change your typed font.

sleepySva, the author of the Arcana mod.

Who's sva

I have an idea of something to add to Eternaween, as well, but since it's not a big change, and relates to another mod's events, it can be its own thing.

For Halloween Menu:

-added replacements for oSB's starbound.png and barstound.png
-replaced outdated cinematics folder files with proper-size chuckles.png
Idola  [author] 17 May @ 11:02pm 
For The Spooky Scary Halloween Special:

-doublechecked craftinganvil.object.patch
-replaced craftinganvil.animation file with craftinganvil.animation.patch to prevent incompatibility with other mod addons
replaced craftinganvil3.png and craftinganvil3lit.png with craftinganvilhalloween.png and craftinganvilhalloweenlit.png + frames
-added missing icon for "The Invisible Avali's Hat"
-flipped a \ to / in pumpbomb.projectile
-set pumpkinfrag.projectile's physics to "grenade" since there are no "pumpkinfrag" physics
-deleted "pumpkinfrag" folder since the projectile is already in "pumpbomb"
-reduced Smash-o'-Lantern's baseDps from 666.5 to 15
-changed it to Legendary rarity
-reduced Candied Corn requirement from 21 to 16 after talking to Sva

Since this hasn't been updated since 2017, would it be alright to upload a fixed version of it, along with one of "Halloween Menu"?

Wingnut  [author] 28 Aug, 2022 @ 1:53am 
Damn, I've been found out.
Super Brasilis 27 Aug, 2022 @ 6:49pm 
This is a joke about the real evil things actually happens around the world.

It'd be nice to keep using this mod, but I also want to avoid issues like that.😕

If your interest in Starbound isn't what it used to be, maybe someone in the Discord can take over maintenance for you.🤔
Wingnut  [author] 18 Aug, 2022 @ 12:46am 
five years later, and never fixed. lmao.
Wingnut  [author] 18 Aug, 2022 @ 12:45am 
Yeah, that old bug still persists.
💀 17 Aug, 2022 @ 11:58pm 
I use this mod alongside The Eternal Ace's Mega Man Stuff, and had a crash when putting that mod's Creator addon onto a Replicator. After narrowing things down by adding a few mods at a time, and just getting instantly zipped back to my ship instead of crashing this time, it looks like it's because this mod overwrites craftinganvil.animation instead of patching it.

It can be fixed by the other mod having higher priority, though if any other mods patch the anvil animation and end up running before this one, they'll have issues as well. Never mind. I tried putting a copy of Ace's mod in my folder, with its metadata's priority to 9999, and even "including" this mod, but the Replicator problem persists.

Well, even if it didn't become the grand thing you originally had in mind, I still love this mod. Thank you for creating it.

I'm planning to find a nice dark windy spooky planet and build a haunted house base there with the decorations and things.
Wingnut  [author] 18 Feb, 2021 @ 2:16pm 
Well, in defense of the original design document for this mod, I wanted the Smash-O-Lantern to be this super expensive weapon that you'd be able to build as a reward for completing the halloween questline that I had laid out, but never completed.

The Smash-O-Lantern would have been built using dark fragments that you'd collect throughout the campaign, and then upgraded into the final version with items you'd find hidden in secrets, which would reward the completionists out there who'd be interested in it.

(Here's a video of what initially would have been the Halloween Hub: https://youtu.be/_Yt83neAWR0)

Obviously in hindsight, I should have just nerfed it, or perhaps made it WAYYY more expensive that it is currently.
Z'uldiss 16 Feb, 2021 @ 1:28pm 
🤔Now that I think about it, I'm not sure if Frackin' Universe is affecting the damage value of hammers.

I crafted my own Smash-O-Lantern first (so I feel like I've earned it), and then admin-spawned a substitute with its "baseDPS" set to 11.9, resulting in the weapon's description showing an even value of 50 damage. That seems fair compared to the Skath hammer, if one thinks the Smash-O-Lantern should still be highly powerful. Not sure yet if generated hammers have higher values.
Z'uldiss 15 Feb, 2021 @ 6:22pm 
That Smash-O-Lantern is one ridiculous weapon. It's a hammer-like weapon that does 2799.3 damage per swing!😬

What are the item ids i would like to decorate for Halloween but don't have enough time to find all the items?
Wingnut  [author] 6 Oct, 2020 @ 5:13pm 
I don't think so. About 90% sure I split the menu screen off
TITAN 6 Oct, 2020 @ 5:06pm 
Will this conflict with title screen mods?
Wingnut  [author] 1 Oct, 2020 @ 7:10pm 
Spooky

IT'S THE SPOOKY MONTH, HAPPY SPOOKY MONTH EVERYONE! :SBpenguin:
GeekyRaptorStudios 17 Aug, 2020 @ 10:43am 
If anyone is still playing starbound, I was thinking of making a halloween mod myself.
GeekyRaptorStudios 17 Aug, 2020 @ 10:42am 
hey anyone else think we should make it a thing to celebrate Halloween in summer, like I don't know... Summerween?

Also I was wondering if the author would be okay sending me the .pak file because I want to extract the files so I can figure out what sound file the music box in the mod uses.
I really love the hauntingly whimsical tune it belts out!
Azatha 29 Jul, 2020 @ 6:36am 
@Johnny_Guitar I'd do Halloween all year if I could.
Whiffney Houston 28 Jul, 2020 @ 7:32pm 
At the speed I work, it probably won't be finished until October lmao
In seriousness, yes, I'm going to try and make a new, updated Halloween mod when time allows it, since all the ones I know of haven't been updated
Wingnut  [author] 28 Jul, 2020 @ 6:41pm 
Aw man, I honestly cannot believe it's been four years alread-

Wait a moment, you're rolling with a Halloween modpack in july?
Azatha 28 Jul, 2020 @ 10:24am 
@Skeleboner Anyone that makes a Halloween mod is my favorite person.
Whiffney Houston 27 Jul, 2020 @ 1:27am 
Lucky for you, I'm working on a Halloween mod myself, but I could release a patch for this one in the meantime
Azatha 26 Jul, 2020 @ 7:47am 
I'd love to see this mod updated, there's just no other good Halloween mods!

Oof
NobeOddy 3 Oct, 2018 @ 5:17pm 
This mod isn't working, the crafting table doesnt appear at the inventors table
sleepingpiranha 4 Aug, 2018 @ 12:54pm 
what kind of scythes are there? i am looking for a certain scythe that has slots ability, is it in this mod?
Wingnut  [author] 31 Jan, 2018 @ 7:15pm 
No problemo, friendo.
Whiffney Houston 31 Jan, 2018 @ 1:25pm 
Well, my fault for reading the description wrong then. My apologies.
Wingnut  [author] 31 Jan, 2018 @ 9:15am 
Werevali is the only Avali costume
Whiffney Houston 30 Jan, 2018 @ 11:50pm 
What are the Avali costumes? The Werevali looks like one, but I figured I should ask.
Nickc01 4 Nov, 2017 @ 7:04pm 
I have reported a bug where this mod is incompatible with The Reconstructor Addon Mod in the Bug Reports Discussion

Wingnut  [author] 29 Oct, 2017 @ 7:14pm 
could you please post your starbound log in the bug reports section, so that I might be able to assist in seeing what is causing the issue?
