=== Races.lsx === | |||
So this file is what we need to edit alongside CharacterCreationSharedVisuals in order for our hair to appear as a slot in character creation. When made via this your hair will appear at the bottom of the hairs in character creation. | |||
However this file is sadly incompatible with other mods editing the same sections we need to edit. This can be resolved either by opting into my [https://www.nexusmods.com/baldursgate3/mods/353 Patches for Races.lsx] mod or by using the Compatibility Framework instead of the Races.lsx file. | |||
=== Compatibility Framework === | |||
To use the [https://www.nexusmods.com/baldursgate3/mods/1933 Compatibility Framework] you need to install it alongside your mod. CF however needs to be at the bottom of the load order. | |||
So first you want to make some new folders: | |||
Modname/Mods/ScriptExtender/Lua | |||
In the Script extender folder you want to create a Config.json you can do this by creating a text file and just renaming it and its extension Config.json. In the json you want: | |||
{ | |||
"RequiredVersion": 9, | |||
"ModTable": "YOUR_MOD_NAME_HERE", | |||
"FeatureFlags": ["Lua"] | |||
} | |||
Where I have written your mod name here, write the name of your mod. | |||
Now in the Lua folder do the same again make a new txt file but this time rename it BootstrapClient.lua | |||
if Ext.Mod.IsModLoaded("67fbbd53-7c7d-4cfa-9409-6d737b4d92a9") then | |||
local raceChildData = { | |||
ModName = { | |||
modGuid = "the UUID you gave in your meta.lsx", | |||
raceGuid = "899d275e-9893-490a-9cd5-be856794929f", | |||
children = { | |||
entry1 = { | |||
Type = "Visuals", | |||
Value = "3ae3e4fc-e792-473a-8853-43520dfc1147", | |||
}, | |||
} | |||
} | |||
} | |||
local function OnStatsLoaded() | |||
Mods.SubclassCompatibilityFramework.Api.InsertRaceChildData(raceChildData) | |||
end | |||
Ext.Events.StatsLoaded:Subscribe(OnStatsLoaded) | |||
end | |||
raceGuid = "899d275e-9893-490a-9cd5-be856794929f", | |||
this you want to be the race you're adding your hair too. The one currently in there is humanoid. This will apply it to all races including modded races if they use it as the parent. For others see [[Modding:Race_UUID|here]] | |||
Type = "Visuals", | |||
This line is what you're adding to. Visuals is either Hair or Beards or other assets defined in the SharedVisuals file. | |||
Value = "3ae3e4fc-e792-473a-8853-43520dfc1147", | |||
This uuid has to match the one you gave for the UUID line in your CharacterCreationSharedVisuals | |||
Congrats you setup your mod for using the Compatibility Framework. Just remember always load Compatibility Framework at the bottom of your load order. | |||
