Still waiting to see someone make intelligent Floran speech for your character like how some books you find are from Floran that talk like humans and don't hiss. Even just give them the human speech template!

I think a mod where the player is a Greenfinger would be interesting. A bookish if not fierce spacefarer.

What would florans do if they didn't obsess about hunting?

what we need is a mod that makes florans not hiss and obsess about hunting. I need to learn how to mod

Just now, I uninstalled all the mods except this one, deleted my storage folder, ran the game a bit, quit, checked the log file, and the 2 errors were still there.
Bagheera Magaro 4 Jun, 2020 @ 8:33pm 
Yes, but why wasn't it there? I've found a few times where old mods messed up parts of the game's code and effectively made those parts no longer exist, so I was wondering if anybody had encountered (and hopefully solved) this problem before.

Seems self-explanatory. Looks like it tried to remove a property that wasn't there.

Doing my best to figure these errors out myself (since I brought this upon myself by not checking mod compatibility one at a time), but I'll ask here just in case. Anybody seen these errors before?

@Slignerd You sound like the kind of person that needs a padded world because some places have right angles. Florans are absolutely savage and barbaric, so it makes no sense they'd change things like referring to most pets as "Delicious", which they have changed.

I remember how there used to be more rascism about the Floran-Hylotl conflicts.
Plus,they renamed all the empty bottles into non-alcoholic things.
And the "Never invite a Novakid to Tea" story is a bit different.

@Slignerd:
Admittedly many of them aren't too good, but some are really on the line of "so bad it's good".

Honestly, I don't really see the point of this mod. It just reverts everything back to being horrible and outdated.

"The old lore was infinitely better than this baby crap."
Hahah, comments like this are pretty much nauseating at this point.

I think he means more of imporving human dialouge. It literally reads like a 5 year old said it.

@Doctoberfest
I think the Florans had much better responses than any other race (cute simple savage), so I don't see much point in making this mod for other races.

If you're interested, I've posted a report on description changes here:
http://community.playstarbound.com/threads/how-racial-descriptions-for-objects-have-been-changed.131917/

As for restoring codexes, I might look into it.

Doctoberfest 4 Jul, 2017 @ 12:48pm 
Hey are you able to do this for the other races? And is it possible to put the legacy codexes back in? The old lore was infinitely better than this baby crap.
Alex 26 Jun, 2017 @ 1:28pm 
Thank you for bringing back some of the old lore :D

@Benven99
Thanks for pointing that out. It should be fine as long as it isn't crashing the game.
Benven99 9 May, 2017 @ 1:40pm 
Hey, just want to let you know your mod is throwing up a couple of errors in the log. The mission objects Drip1 & Drip2 does not have any racial descriptions, and your mod is trying to alter the floranDescription for it, but is comming up as an error because there is nothing there to change. Sorry if that was worded weird.
Moonleaf 14 Apr, 2017 @ 5:35pm 
Any mod that restores something from the amazing lore of old starbound is a must have for me,
thanks!

"Does it mean Floran won't say anything when they scan Apex locker?"

It probably meant that it defaulted to the regular description.
Xaliber 21 Mar, 2017 @ 8:16pm 
Some of them seem to be better in newer version too, like this in classicbookcase.object

Old -> The Floran share knowledge in blood and bone. A scent speaks more than any Apex book. New -> The Floran share knowledge in blood and bone. A scent speakss more than any booksss.

the extra "s" seems to be more consistent.
Xaliber 21 Mar, 2017 @ 8:14pm 
Interesting idea. I thought you were going to restore the Floran codexes that have old lore, but this one is nice too.

Question, in the pastebin there are some parts that don't seem to have the old version. Like apexstoragelocker.object, which has this:

Old -> New -> Floran can ssstuff things into locker.

Does it mean Floran won't say anything when they scan Apex locker?
