Also having this issue. Curious if its been solved yet.

Having the same issue as some other people. I had a save from February and I haven't touched the game since. Everyone now is just multi-colored humans.

Curious if there's any compatibility with this and the mod "Prepare Carefully" (https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=735106432) I ask because when I try I don't see any of the options to use these customizations when making either a character through that mod and I don't see the options when making a xenotype in the xenotype editor and would love to know if I'm doing anything wrong or if there's a fix that I haven't seen.
thx in advance for any help that can be offered

how to start of as Anthro if any one is struggling (i was defiantly not ) you have to choose the Anthro crash landed scenario under scenarios and you have all the furrys there

hi how do i make my colonists wolfs when im starting a new game?

idk if its just me but.. the anthro pawns i had turned back to humans but are still labeled as Anthros.. how do i fix this?

One of my Synth pawns keeps wearing masks, and now he has a ton of them in his storage.

@R-MK I sent you a friend request! I've been doing a ton of work with the Humanoid Alien Races framework for my upcoming dragon race mod. I'd be more than happy to overhaul the XML for the Anthro Race mod and help add functionality! I think I could even simplify a lot of the code base, and some recent HAR functionality means anthros can be mixed in with (or replace!) humanlike pawns in the default scenarios, too!

The potential fix is not too complicated - but there's probably someone who can help with that. :)

I'm always around, I've just been drawing everything else other than mod making .w.)
But yeah again, if anyone wanted to take up the mantle for better code writing for future updates, go right ahead. You can use my assets however you like.

I really don't know anything about coding, this thing is being held by duct tapes and dreams :u
I just wanna draw funny animal people.

For the slim chance of the author actually still being around and maintaining this mod:

> [Anthro Race] causes compatibility errors by overwriting BasePawn

This is an absolute compatibility-nightmare and I wouldn't be surprised if this mod breaks functionality for a long list of other mods. Overwriting Defs & especially Bases is an absolute modding-sin to begin with - and overwriting the BasePawn - one of the core aspects of the game - will likely cause a lot of issues. It also looks like the BasePawn version used for the 1.5-version of the mod is not actually up-to-date, which means pawns will likely end up with missing compatibiltiy for never game-versions and the DLCs.

Given the author's inactivity (and finding out that other people reported that in the past already) this is mostly meant as PSA & warning for anyone who wants to use that mod. I would HIGHLY recommend avoiding it, until this has been fixed!

any biotech version of this?

@Stachman and anyone else curious:
'Anthro' is a shortening of 'Anthropomorphic';
Anthropo- as a prefix indicates something 'of or relating to' humankind. '-morphic' is a suffix indicating 'having such a form'.
Anthropomorphic, 'Having a form of or relating to (resembling) humankind'. In other words, 'Human-ish'.

i installed this and went to make a xenotype, and cant find any of the content of the mod, i wanted to make custom goat people so i can have a dreemurr style settlement but i cant find anything,

im just confused on how to make them look furry, when i give therm the anthro xeno, they are still looking human..idk if i have to add the looks myself :p

im currently having trouble on how i can make my colonists, well...furry :p

this is clearly false advertising clearly, non of these are human, more like inhuman

Ummm actually, the word anthro is a derivative of the word "anthropos" which means Human, in Greek, (for example, anthropology is the study of humanity) technically meaning this mod is called "Human Race" mod.

Does this have gene packs to go with for each race?

did NOT know my goat played rimworld

great work I am thirding sodas request to limt / choose what anthros spawn

Is there a way to turn people into anthros through gene implantation?

Great work on the mod! But I am seconding Soda's request to limit / choose what anthro's spawn through the mod options!

To answer Soda's first question: I believe it has to be considered alien from their own point of view. So if an Anthro butchers an Anthro, it's against their ideals, but if an Anthro butchers a Human, it should be fine.

btw is there a way to limit what anthros spawn?

i think i have a problem, i made a colony with an ideologion that hates aliens. (anthros are classified as antrhos) but when my pawns killed an anthro and chopped it up on the butcher table they got sad because it was a humanlike. (my idealigion makes people want alien meat) what did i do wrong?

is there a biotech version of this mod?

Wow, they're so pretty! I wonder who made the- ah, well that checks out. Great work still!

Does not work with the VOID faction, it makes the monsters invisible, any way you can fix this?

is the body textures just stuck to the vanilla body? i wanna know if there's a way to fix it or change the body texture of the race since it looks off compared to other colonists who have the body texture

since then, found another mod to remove the bionic eye overlay.

I think it looks a little odd with bionic eyes. image link [files.catbox.moe]

i love this mod!

Can't perform surgeries other than drugs or organ harvesting (IE no iron lungs or peg legs)

I had a very funny bug where I changed a pawn with an anthro head into another modded xenotype, and it bluescreened my entire computer! Learn from my hubris, and if you want to start messing around with xenotypes, maybe change them back to having a human type first!
I will not stop messing around with Xenos though because I love this mod so much, and adore all the different varieties! I cannot thank you enough for spicing up my game with new furry faces!

Will you add a Cinderace head for this race? We have Scorbunny but not the other two :c

Yes, actually. If you open up the character editor and click "human" underneath their name, you should get a pop up for "Core" and "Anthro" iirc. Just scroll down to the bottom and select "Colonist" and they'll become an anthro with the exact same stats and traits.

Is there a way to use character editor with this mod?

insect heads when ?_?

Very good mod, thanks!

NVM i solved it! all mods that mess with the medical system need to be loaded after the anthro mod

anyone else having an issue where anthros have very few available operations compared to non-anthros? like i dont get an option to replace my anthro colonists leg, but i can replace every single toe of my human colonist

"oh wow these are really cute and well done! i wonder who-- WAIT ITS THAT GUY?!?!?!"

We are currently marking this mod as incompatible with Vanilla Factions Expanded - Mechanoids due to it causing rendering issues. Let me know when this is fixed and we will remove the incompatibility tag.

We meet again CMDR Youth. I'm suffering the same bug. Thank you for your service in tracking it down. I run 1400+ mods and I had all but given up as it takes 15+ minutes per launch to load the game.

Mod is causing Render Errors when loaded above any other mods that add PawnKinds or BaseKinds. I've talked to the people at HAR and Vanilla Expanded in my long Quest to figure out these render errors, and it all culminates here.

I've tested with Anthro Races at the top with HAR in a 300+ Modlist, and it causes render errors.
Below all the other pawn-adding Mods, it causes no render errors. There is something in the mod that -if it loaded first- is hijacking base code before any other mods can use it.

@legoworf there's a mod that adds lions, https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1501315350&searchtext=lions

I'm not getting most types of raids from these guys, due to a System.NullReferenceException during pawn/pawn group generation. I assume this is what erdelf was talking about re: overriding BasePawn. The only 2 types of raids that have successfully generated for me so far are "siege" and "scattered drop pod".

PLS LIONS

Anyone know if this has a patch for body mods?
