The character in the screenshot is actually from the greckan race mod

that image looks like a real upgraded Novakid but in the in-game image looks nothing like it

Found the fix for the npc death issue, posted the solution in the mod discussion for those who need it.

├┬┴┬┤͜ʖ ͡°) ValveSoon...™

"The updates should start again soon"...

you are doing great

Is this mod still being worked on?

Yes, it's a known issue- And I'm sorry it's not yet fixed. I've been unable to get to a system where I can actually fix this from, for some time. I do plan on fixing it, as soon as I can. I'm sorry for the inconvenience this poses as is.

Oh. Somebody submitted this issue already.

I came across the issue where npcs die when talking to them. I found that it was this mod by subscribing and unsubscribing from each of my mods, and unsubscribing from this one fixed the issue. I like this mod; please fix.

i kinda wish the novakids had the shattered shell fragments all around the body that this race has

@Noodl E:
Only half the picture. The Anodynes and Novakid were both suggested around the same time, with the creators both being pals. They even drew comics of the two races together. I believe the Novakids were dominant, and the Anodynes were slightly merged into the Novakid.

I am very late, but @Lite2x100_7 the Anodynes are the fan concept that was the inspiration for the Novakids.

I occasionally check on this to see if it's been updated, the Anodyne is another star race that I love with the novakid.

When will it be updated again?

are the anodynes and novakids related?

@Bullyhunter That is a known issue. I am currently on the trail of the issue and have had some sound advice on how to fix it even, the issue is that I am currently unable to access a computer from which I can work from, so I am currently unable to push out an update to fix it. As soon as an update can be dropped, it will!

Bug: people die when i talk to them when playing other races

@RazorsEdge That's not a mod? I think you're looking at the four Matter Manipulator tools, which are all vanilla, you just have to unlock them. If you're talking about the extended quick bar, that's different.

@ChillLaxx I'm going to be attempting to get back to updating this very soon! With any luck, I'll be back on it within a month or two at the longest! That said, always take timeframes with a grain of salt, stuff can happen!

The reason why I stopped playing this game was because I wanted a custom ship for this race, I love this race and I can't wait for updates!!

what is that mod that let you have 4 item's in your hand please tell me ;)

Understood, but if you do end up making an Annodyte species, or really anything from ben 10 (A tetramand or ectonuerite would be really cool), then would you mind linking me to it? Thanks.

It is sadly not, it is a reference to a species that was considered for being implemented into the main gam eback when Novakids were being considered. It was going to be a one or the other situation, and they went with Novakids, even though they're technically cousin species. That said, once I finish this species, I may decide to use what I learned from making it to start on other species, like the Annodytes.

Would this happen to be a reference to the energy based "Annodyte" Species in Ben 10? It's a stretch but just wondering

It was never abandoned, it has simply been impossible for me to work on this mod for quite some time, and likely will be for a time to come as well. I, as always, apologize to all who wait for this project to be worked on once more.

Holy shit, it's not abandoned anymore!

Ok, thanks.

The race itself is currently in, yes, though they are not quite completed. They are playable, however, and hopefully I'll be able to get a system that I can use to continue work on the mod again soon.

Is the actual race in this mod? Ever since Alpha I've been hearing rumors of this species and would like to knowmore about them.

I am looking forward for this race, as they look incredibly beautiful. I defintly keep an eye on this.

@The Ghost Cat
The in lore reason for this is that they're essentially cousin species... The out of lore reason is that the Anodynes were the original concept, and Novakids were made from their basic template, and then expanded upon in a different way.

@Skyfry428
That is correct! Partially why I started out on this mod, I know that many people, like myself, wanted Anodynes to be in, as well.

When Novakids were added, I believe before this, it was a choice between either Anodynes or Novakids, and people chose Novakids.

They look like novakid... i like it!

@Lileats277 It's not dead at all, I am just currently unable to work on or update it at this time. There is a slim chance that I may be able to get to work again after the holidays, but it's not assured, so be ready for a bit of a wait until the next update. That said, I do plan on working on some more lore related details and the like while I can't work on the mod itself, so the next time I'm able to drop an update, I hope to not only drop a sizable update, but also to have things fleshed out, with actual lore for the Anodynes in the form of codexes and the like, so... Look forward to that!

@Star_watcher and @PeculiarSentinel
That is completely correct, at the time I didn't have the sprites done for the Anodynes themselves, just some basic furniture (This is my first time modding and so I wanted to start small even though I plan for this mod to be very.. 'Full') But I still needed an image that showcased what I had so far. Soon enough, that image will be replaced with a better one that has an Anodyne in the image.

Is this mod dead?

the grecken is there to showcase the furniture, because at the time (when that image was posted) the sprites where not yet finished (I am assuming he wanted to show his/her work so far)

Because it's showcasing Anodyne stardust-based furniture... I'd think that would be obvious?

why is there a picture of a greckan?

Working hard to find it, though there is a slight bump at the moment, due to some stuff happening in my personal life my progress is going to be paused for a bit. That said, do enjoy what's there of the mod, the glitch only happens with 'Non-important' NPCs from what I've found and heard, so any NPC with a mission importance of any kind is still safe, I believe. I'm sorry for the inconvenience and how long it's been present.

I love this mod but the dying npc glitch I hope you will fix it as soon as possible keep up the good work ;)

i am so very sorry... i love this mod, but for now i'm unsubscribing from it until the 'dying npc' glitch is solved =c

though i AM keeping myself subscribed to the thread so i know when it's fixed, as well as keeping it in my collection.. i _really_ hope it's fixed soon though.

Ok Keep it up then

As soon as I track down and fix the npcs dying glitch.

When will this mod start to update?

That's what I'm hoping for.

This looks awesome. Keepi going at it and you might have yourself a mod everyone wants

@DragonbornZelose
Just take your time and do what you believe you should be doing. Though I have both FU and FR installed, I am very willing to wait.

@Fuyuno & @DragonbornZelose::
Really depends on what "integrating" means actually. If by integrating it means the mod uses status effect that comes from Frackin Universe and/or Races, the mod needs to load after FU/FR, or the game wouldn't be able to read the used status effect.

As for Frackin Races/Frackin Universe, as Lileats277 have said, they are completely separate mod. Frackin Universe doesn't come with Frackin Races. You still need Frackin Races if you want the races to have special status effects or race ability. Usually when people speaking of Frackin compatibility with a race mod, they mean Frackin Races. :)

Frackin races indeed comes seperately and doesn't require Fracking Universe, but Frackin Universe comes with it already in it as well, if I recall correctly.
