Armor Adapt

Description
Brought to you by the RenTek Corporation
(Tailer needs work, I know, may make a better one later)

Armor Adapt is a utility mod that makes the basis for vanilla and modded items to change their images to fit your species and body type automatically.

How does it work?

So as long as the item has been made compatible and your race mod is set up to use Armor Adapt, armor adapt will try to change the images of the item to images that fit your species and body type. If the alternate artwork doesn't exist yet, then it'll either use a default outfit for the species or it will use the item's original images. Whether the species uses a default outfit or makes items with no alternate artwork yet use the original images is up to the race mod author for that species.

What else does it do?

Armor adapt also allows status effects to alter what images are being used in the conversion of your outfit images. This can be used to have outfits transform, force a specific outfit on status effect, or use a status effect for a temporary disguise. While Armor Adapt itself has no effects by itself (unless you manage to get a hold of the dog effect). it does allow other mods to use armor adapt to create these effects.

Armor Adapt has to be installed for other mods to change the images of their armor automatically, without Armor Adapt Installed, the items will revert to normal and will not convert, even with compatible mods installed.

Compatible mods:

Lucario Race
Galaxy Foxes
Saturnians (in the works)
Shoggoth (in the works)
Arachne (in the works)
Elithian Alliance (in the works)

All Vanilla outfits have compatibility, just waiting for other race mods to make compatibility.

If a mod is not compatible with Armor Adapt, the mod author of the mods you want could be reached out to, to make compatibility. It is best that the compatibility files are stored inside the mods you want instead of making a 3rd mod to bridge them as the compatibility is completely harmless and without Armor Adapt installed, it sleeps until it is needed.

Armor Adapt changes my char's sprite too intrusively and can't change it back

If any of the params or config are modified it is treated as a new item because using descriptors match with true on for exact match in public build. The mismatch of stored table to what is being worn currently wakes the script up.

Also... how did I only receive the notification for this now?

re: adapting the nanofield - eh? it has no armor visuals though??

Yeah that mod basically takes a predefined list of items and is like
Okay you are an avali, oh? you put on this item? yeah I'm replacing that with this one instead.

Armor Adapt changes images so you don't need new items.

Well that sucks (heck I even found a similar mod that does that but requires Species clothing)
but thank you for answering Zancuno

Reminder that this mod cannot generate images with code, someone has to make the images. The base compatibility is mostly for allowing this system to be set up so artists can fill in the gaps,

Funny thing about the avali. They were the very first I reached out to when I first made this mod. They said no to putting the basic compatibility inside their mod because they were afraid it would mean the userbase would demand them to make art for all vanilla outfits. Funny thing, Skittles already has made the artwork a long time ago but they did not accept the compromise.

Anyone is free to make a compatibility mod though. Triage is scared of doing it themselves out of fear but that wouldn't stop others.

say can this work with the Avali?

could you add the race woof xd ?

Also no, looking at their code. It does not look like I can sneak in compatibility to armor adapt the nano field to different species. Their code has no room for me to play with that.
Zancuno  [author] 13 Apr @ 2:33am 
I already made a kill switch for their cosplay system in past, guess the nano field quite literally flew under my radar.

I just dug into that. I found why. Nano field is a set of armors that are being modified almost every frame.
Armor Adapt thinks every time the images change that it is a new item and it turns on. Will have to code an exception to exclude these armors from being run through. Very specific bug lol
Essentially, I need to add a kill switch to Armor Adapt if you are using nano field.
