caved and downloaded RA and that works alright. i liked the chance of the RP one however but it's not working with pearl despite the patches so...anyway thanks for the support with this.

It's super weird. Pearl Hive and the mod you have to recruit people are in the top - then the addon for praetorian - then the patch for either RP or RA at last. The dialogue I added to said Pearl hives was the only Hive related one from the original RP mod. Though I usually use RA myself as I don't like the low chance of success with the RP. Recruit All goes with just a simple "Join me" at 100% of success rate.

Cont. I can then respond 'listen hiver, I'm willing to give you a chance. Fight with me and be free.' I select this, nothing happens and the captive says (as text hovering over their heads) 'dirty insignificant shit eater hiveless.' This is a bar hired pearl prince talking to a captive pearl droneguard. Is there a mod order I've messed up? I've got RP first, then pearl, then the additional pearl mods. I've got other mods not related between these but I dunno if that would have any affect. How's it supposed to look like?

Still no joy, so normal RP interaction is you right click and select talk to, this has a cool down, you get a number of responses to select, then a second selection after that, select the right ones and bam, it runs the check to see if the recruit is successful or not. With Pearl Hivers I've captured I'm seeing a speech bubble when i hover over them, which is different to other prisoner interactions, and their talk to option is on a different cool down than the other hive types. when the dialogue comes up i get one option, such as 'take me back to my hive, hiveless!',

I've added your mod too, ill see how it goes.

That was weird... But the chance is not 100%, but way higher (20% vs 65% with a hiver doing the dialogue)

Tried with the same race hiver bit, didn't work. I will check your profile for the mods. I was able to fine the praetorian one but not much else in the workshop.

They're in bars across the world, that is correct. I've also made praetorian, queen, Recruia all and recruitable prisoners patches long time ago. You can check those if you want. The only difference with the other praetorian patch is that mine doesn't remove the mechanical executors from the Queen's squad xD So there's a small army of drones, executors and praetorians defending the queen. There are some screenshots on my profile if you want to check that one out. (and mods if you feel like it xD)

@ReD2222 [Poor quality user] Thanks, I will try this once I find a pearl in the wild, been checking out all the comments and stuff and apparently i can recruit them in bars? I live just at the coast at the south west edge of the fog islands in dreg so i barely visit other places other than to sell stuff.

If you're using Recruitable prisoners - you should have another hiver of the same race as your droneguard. They are willing to join if there's a relative soul speaking to them.

I have a problem, I have captured a Pearl Droneguard, imprisoned them and I get the talk to dialog option and there is only one option to select and it never actually results in recruiting the prisoner, I'm not sure if the chance is super low or if something is wrong. I know someone did a patch to add praetorians, an MCA patch and one for crafting and also one to recruit via prisoners option, however I cannot find one for the base pearl mod npcs, is this part of your original mod already or am i missing a prerequisite?

A problem, the hiver merchants don´t talk

OR if anyone knows if i just need UWE or if i need hives expanded (i will be running both because i really like UWE) lemme know

@Chunky Question, if i have UWE do i need Hives expanded? sense its already in UWE?

Hello. Your mod is great! I used it in my maksimum kenshi mod set, I hope you won't mind. I will definitely indicate your mod in the list of used mods. Thank you in advance.

Is there a way to make there stats better or same as default hive like the soldier I think has lots of negative red stats compared to other hivers

I just released my Hiver mod which makes this one compatible with Mogwai Hive Overhaul, Cute Hive, and others as well.
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3242585435

I ended up including your textures into this mod which works in tandem with the previously linked mod.
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3242638127

sure, no problem

@Chunky. I'm going to be putting together a Mogwai Hive Overhaul patch for most, if not all, the modded Hive strains. Is it alright with you if I include your body texture (the one that Worker, Prince, and Soldier use) in it to work with the race I'll create to match Mogwai's Hive Queen [Alternate]?

Added support for a lot of animations:

And modified pathfinding:

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3186856217

For some reason mod changes building placement in World's End (at least game tells me that this area was modified by mod, when I used Shift+F12), which means that this mod is incompatible with any other mod, that changes World's End.

Can certainly tell there's none.

is there any beep analogs in this hive?

is this mod compatible with genesis?

I think it's finished. Though I'm not sure my clunky stuff is even a minimum quality to be posted on the Workshop list tbh. And I never uploaded anything in there whatsoever. Let's talk, @Amphinious Void xDD

im down for that aslong as its not too fucky to route around for lol. i've captured a couple drones for my hiver playthrough so tehyre just chilling in the cages lol

One must create that thing themselves. And if you wish - I'm willing to help you :) (Perhaps I'll even give you a Pearl Hive Queen I made :D)

@ReD2222 [White Sticky "Ghost"] is that for recruitable prisoners or somewhere else? ive no idea where to go for that

@Amphibious Void That's cause you don't have a patch that'd work on them too.

i cant seem to be able to recruit them with the recruitable prisoners mod

Compatible with Genesis?

I mean the matching color queen for them, of course xD

Can we hope for the Pearl Queen one day? Pretty please? Please?

This mod is clearly abandoned but I was wondering if anyone else was having issues with these spawning everywhere? If I meet a gang of 10 vagrants at least 3-5 of them are pearl hive.

Are the weapons craftable in some way ? ive yet to find a blueprint or schematic for any sword or bench but i did get the one for the bow and armor. I know the board can be found but im looking for the pearlescent textured ones the hive have

Any possibility of adding Pearl Hive Praetorian here?

Pleasant surprize, Someone comes up with a new hiver color scheme that I can get behind, as well as stat variations.

@peonyChik There's a bunch around the map. Just save or buy a few from slavery if you want to go the standard route. Or if you have recruit all prisoners, this worked for me

This is good to know Peony, Thanx. Starting a new hive play through now. I agree there should be a few recruits in the world. Not too many of course. Maybe just add in a few. One in 2 cities of your choosing or go the way of the argonian mod & add them to a few of the slavers

my favorite hive mod type.

i tried to make a private patch mod for this
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2425974883&tscn=1616008609 ...
so it could work with this as well.


but i have no idea how to make textures. could you make a patch mod for it please?

How do you actually get more pearl hive characters? They don't seem to have bars with recruitable characters and they don't interface with prisoner mods. I'm still stuck with my initial 5 Pearl Hivers and can't get more :(

By far my favorite type of Hiver very unique!!! would love to see a Praetorian addition to complete it. Also I'm trying to do a play through based around them and was wondering if it would be possible to get a patch that gives the random pearl Hivers running around a 10% chance to be recruitable if you do the pearl hive start?

Executioners playable or hireable yet?

this is super cool, thanks for the great work!

I haven't tried it yet. But it should work if the items still use the same IDs.

let me rephrase my question a bit .will this mod work if i am only subscribed to genesis but not your listed required mods which are part of genesis already?

Well this mod came out just a week ago. I dont think they added it to project genesis

does this work with just being subscribed to project genesis?

@Sergeant Plate, sorry for that... I have looked into it and I found out that I forgot to make crossbow craftable. The other items like armour and weapons should be craftable anyways.

I have a fairly modded game so it may be on my end but i cannot seem to use the blueprints sold by the Hive, they all show as research added but i check every crafting station and the pearl variants don't show up. Is this common?
