Chester Family

Update 4/18/25

My job ended with my ISP in their technical support dept on March 31st. I was given a small severance, I've spent the majority of April catching up on things around my house, I also got a new dog that we had to deal with who is a total brat. That being said, I have time today and I am currently troubleshooting the majority of what all people have been complaining about.

1. I can't find all of the chesters on the map.

the solution: I've officially started a fully new map with only two other mods, one to test another issue with, and the other to help figure out WHAT happened with these chesters not spawning. I found all chesters naturally without needing to spawn any of their eyebones. If you have doubts, check out the mod linked below. It reveals the entire map, so if you outright give up searching naturally, use the map revealer mod then while loaded into your world hit shift+r and it will show the entire map. My chesters all spawn on top of wood floor, bigdaddy and bluster spawn on later wood floors that look like a face. Originally afetogbo and I when we were partnered made the floor do that so we could find the chesters easier while testing the mod in it's early stages. I'm leaving that alone as a small nod to him but he no longer works on this mod or plays.

2. The caper of the invisible chesters!

I always envisioned myself sitting there and redoing the artwork on all of my chesters. In reality, Dubster is the only one without issues going invisible. I know what the issue is, I guess between the mental abuse I was getting at work, and trying to upkeep with my house and family the invisible chester issue wasn't a priority. I'm just going to sit down later, dust off my old tools and fix the chesters the lazy way. It's simply missing a few new image files in the animations and I may just copy and paste nad rename a few to fill those in.

--------------------------------------------------------

This mod adds in new chesters to the game, all have their own unique abilities and talents. They also all have their own drawbacks as well which helps level out the playing field so they arent maknig the game TOO easy for you. They are spawned on the map just like chester when the mod is enabled but you have to make a new map. Otherwise if you have a save you like, use my prefab list below to summon their respective eyebones.

--------------------------------------------------------

Compatibility issues:
There seems to be a list of mods by Zarklord that don't agree with the chester family. To help narrow down the specific ones EXACTLY, the one thing these mods have in common is they are all dependant on the [API]Gem Core mod. For me to fix this issue, it would require me to basically change the entire code of my mod, so that it would also rely on Gem Core.

Invincible Chester also causes issues(Which defeats the purpose of Dubster FYI). I recommend avoiding all mods that modify Chester unless it's arca tumbulus which just adds morphs to regular chester. (SMALL EDIT: It seems there are now multiple versions of the invincible chester mod, so trial and error helps in picking out which one works with this)

---------------------------------------------------------

Current Chesters available:
Blue Chester (Bluster)
Big Daddy
Afester
Party Chester (Dubster)
Cavester
Stovester

Chesters currently on my to do list:
Stovester's morph
Momma Chester: She repairs broken clothes over time. I'm by no means an expert in coding, but I'm going to figure this one out.
Pandester - He infects things with a disease, all your enemies will die of a plague.

The prefab debug list for the eyebones so you can manually spawn them in if you so choose:
Bluster: bluechester_eyebone
Big Daddy: bigdaddy_eyebone
Afester: afestertoy
Dubster: partybone
Cavester: glowbone
Stovester: ladle

-------------------------------------------------------

Honorable Mentions:

Afetogbo: He originally had collaborated with me on this mod. Over time though he stepped away from DST and left modding for DST behind.

-------------------------------------------------------

AS ALWAYS REMEMBER TO POST LOGS! I CANNOT FIX A PROBLEM IF I DO NOT GET LOGS!

And also from this point on, if a problem is persisting, then I will be ignoring any posts that do not have a log attached telling me IN THE CODE what is happening and your post will be deleted.

-------------------------------------------------------

I'd also like to bring attention to the character mod Elsa, because they used some of our code to make an olaf that follows elsa and acts a bit like a chester. Go give them some of the love too since Olaf may as well be considered a part of the family.
