Many HAR mods don't seem to work quite right with 1.5, sadly. I tried with (no biotech as of this post) a couple of race mods like crocs, luxodon, and goblins to name examples. From what i've seen the heads and other parts either don't show up, or they have some sort of transparancy/graphic issue with them. Those mods work fine in 1.4 and below though from test playthroughs. (It IS quite fun to deal with a large raid of high melee, tough orcs in a medieval might and magic playthrough!)

@Xiaomu Doubt it, the HAR framework changed a lot of stuff regarding graphics

since no longer being up dated does it still work in 1.5

@Alves No. see the message in the description

Pleeease.... update it... :(

Will not be updating this mod after all, sorry

Female (and baby/child) patch: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?edit=true&id=3145945380

@CaptainParan Not to mention that there are no female body-graphics in the mod

@CaptainParan You are of course entitled to your opinion but as stated, I will not do such a drastic change.

@Mlie I really think female orcs should have been there. They are in the code, a gestation period is set, life stages from baby to adult, litter size, mood buff/debuff for dead spouse and children etc., all is set within the mod files, everything needed, except they never spawn.

@CaptainParan Im not the original author of the mod so I cant speak for their decisions about the mod. But as far as I know there were no female orcs. Either way, I will not make such changes to the mod.

I love this mod. BUT you really, really should alter maleprobability from 1.0 to 0.5, since all orcs are male! I just did it myself, but not everyone will know what is wrong and how to change it. Such a small but vital thing to fix!

@Rex705 I will not be doing that, but the source is open if anyone wants to do it.

Would be nice if this could be upgraded to use Biotech and genes and drop HAR. Would probably fix a lot of issues as well.

Oh. Those don’t seem to exist

@DeadDankDreamMemes Either by patching them or use some other mod to edit the restrictions

How does one use the equipment and buildings for other non-orc colonies?

@Hyperball Very common trope for Orcs to resemble pigs since Tolkien days https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/OurOrcsAreDifferent#:~:text=This%20is%20possibly%20drawn%20from,%22%20rhymes%20with%20%22pork%22 .

@greensniperhat Thanks, should be fixed now

Found three errors in Orc_Race.xml: the tags <blackGeneList>, <blackGeneTags>, and <blackEndoCategories> are outside <raceRestrictions> - they should be inside.

Wagh

idk why, but the game crash the moment orc child appear. orc baby is ok but children is the issue for me.

I didnt knew this was the same person lol thank you <3

@Mr.SpacePenguin I am updating all my published mods, progress on the Discord server

will this get update for 1.4?

@Hyperball I only updated the mod, you would have to ask the original author I think

by the way you made orcs look like pigs Imma assume you are a fellow SAO fan

Anyone know how to change it in the mod's code?

Even the description calls them "Ruthless", look above. And orcs are classically hostile and hard to deal with. This looks more like an oversight than a feature. And even if so, I'd still love to know where I can change it in the mod code to make them more like classic orcs.

Very cool idea but they are always guaranteed to be neutral, if not friendly, unless actively attacked

I'm curious why the orcs are considered Neutral and have a 0 natural goodwill instead of say... -100. Is there a way I can fix this in the mod somehow?

strange but interesting

Thanks for keeping this alive! If you are taking content suggestions though, would you be willing to add a hostile Orc faction?

@Pichon_Brutal The modding wiki is a good place to start: https://rimworldwiki.com/wiki/Modding_Tutorials
There are also modding support on the official Discord: https://discord.gg/rimworld
and a bit on my own Discord linked above

thank you it works fine and thanks for keep this mod alive, by the way where can i learn to create mods? im a developer and i can develop on java, php and js, a little bit of c# but i don't understand how the moding works in this game, may you recomend me a guide or something like that?

@Pichon_Brutal Sure, should be added now

and sorry my english is pretty bad

hello, first thank you to kep this mod alive, i like this orcs and second sorry for disturb you, im playing this mod with 'medieval overhaul' and 'Medieval Conversion' (this mod desactivate industrial tecnologie).

But i have a problem, 'medieval overhaul' add the 'DankPyon_ComponentBasic', and 'Medieval Conversion' remove 'ComponentIndustrial'.

industrial component is a basic item to make 'orcish plate helm' (you can find this in the mod path 1.3\Defs\Things Def Misc\Apparel Hats.xml, line 33)

may you make a patch where replace the industrial component for 'DankPyon_ComponentBasic' in order to make the helment?

@4ydra I wasnt aware that it was still an issue. Should be fixed now

Hey Mlie, thank you very much for updating this (and all the other) mods! I think I found a solution for the annoying beard bug:

Please put this below </graphicPaths> in the the Orc_Race.xml:

<styleSettings>
<li>
<key>HairDef</key>
<value>
<hasStyle>true</hasStyle>
</value>
<styleTags>
<li>NoHair</li>
</styleTags>
</li>
<li>
<key>BeardDef</key>
<value>
<hasStyle>true</hasStyle>
<styleTags>
<li>NoBeard</li>
</styleTags>
</value>
</li>
</styleSettings>

I was gonna find a wigs mod to recommend Rex but it looks like there somehow is no such mod lol.

Orcs be fashion models - https://imgur.com/V4GMOMs

All my orcs had young, hot, emo-boy style haircuts, which was very funny, but also absolutely shattered the tone of the game.

Thanks for the fix and all your hard work in maintaining older mods @Mlie!

Awww I thought it was a new feature they looked awesome with hair really funny to see

@Uncle Nanny Should be fixed now, they were missing the correct styleTag

All the orcs in my game have hair. Is there a way to remove the hair? It doesn't seem like it's supposed to be there, and looks a bit odd on them. Sorry if there is an obvious answer I'm missing.

@gufiu123 Yes

is it possible to add this mod mid-save?

Unpopular opinion maybe but; "Orcs" are pigmen and "Orks" are beefy greenskin elves. Orc for Porcine, Ork for Orkney.

HAHA
