Mogwai Hive Overhaul

Description
-Details:
- A Hive overhaul with stuff i specifically wanted in my own game, armour, textures & meshes are using mostly edited vanilla assets to give hivers a scrap/scavenger vibe i wanted.

- Hive Queens, Soldiers, Workers, & Hive Princes (including Dead/Fog Hive) - Skin Color Sliders enabled (nothing drastic); for slight color variation/uniqueness. (default color, reddish, darker.)

-Leucistic Hivers added (10-26-23) - No world spawns, treated as normal western hive and identical in every way (for rp purposes can be selected at gamestart only) x3 eye colors available
(Very rarely, Leucistic hivers can be found in slave camps 10-29-23)

- - - - - -- - - - -READ IMPORTANT INFO - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Mod contains a separate hive queen edit. (Doesnt replace vanilla hive queens, its designed to be used as a main character, or a queen for a hiver playthrough. The Alternate Hive Queen is Female Mesh Version Only, (male mesh wont appear, cant even be selected (says mesh error b/c there is no male mesh added. Disregard the message, it doesnt effect anything, then select female on the gender tab) (This is the only way to have a hive queen thats recognized by the game as female (also uses female skeleton) & uses female clothes meshes. - Female Hive mesh has a flat chest (b/c its a actual bug creature.)

Fingers crossed you come back to this and decide to add more recruits. I've been doing a Hiver run for a while now and love having every different kind of Hiver available from mods to recruit (especially if they're Unique!), but I'd love if there were a Prince, Soldier and Drone as well as the Queen.

Hey,nice,i appreciate you doing this for me and thank you for your rapid response.

@HAlex - They rarely spawn in slave camps and if i remember correctly theres a pretty high chance to find with Noble hunters in the desert. I might start working on some mods again/updates but havent been playing lately. For my own game occasionally i will just make a mod to make to up the spawn chance and then disable it after i get a recruit (so i may add something like that eventually).
HAlex 11 Aug @ 11:21am 
oh sorry,maybe the question was clear only in my head...!
In th emod description is is stated that Leucistic Hivers can only be selected at gamestart for RP purposes.
What i wanted to ask is if its possible to make them spawn normaly in the world like other races maybe at a lower rate.
Mogwai  [author] 11 Aug @ 7:23am 
@HAlex - not sure i understand
HAlex 11 Aug @ 1:58am 
Is it possible to make it so that they do spawn in the world,please?
At least a separate patch,Thank you.

@VThree you need to edit offending the xml in 0_Alternate_Hive_Queen\editor\ (whichever races are being affected [i.e. prince, soldier, or worker]).
I'm pretty sure only the workers are affected in the manner that you're describing. Colour r="255" g="255" b="255" /> is the only line in that section that should be left alone. All other "Colour" lines can be safely deleted.
VThree 13 Jun @ 12:38pm 
Is there anyway to disable the color slider? For some reason, it has turned all of the non-unique Western Hivers a bluish tint which I find very irksome.

@maxibreard. This mod doesn't change any base game characters. So, yes, they are compatible.

My dummy mod, linked in my previous comment, adds Praetorian races/characters to the game starts added in this mod, but is not really a compatibility patch, per say.

Is compatible with hive expanded?
