understood, thank you

You can't have more than one equipped at the same time. You would have to mod in a new hat that just looks like it was both hats combined.
Cookie Thug Feb 12, 2023 @ 7:54pm 
got it do you know of a way to have two items be equipped to the head at once
Cyan Sky Knight  [author] Feb 12, 2023 @ 7:52pm 
Nah, you can only ever have one head item equipped at a time.
Cookie Thug Feb 12, 2023 @ 7:48pm 
question, does this make it where you can have goggles on face and hats on head at the same time

Super grateful for this! Will this be compatible with Cutebound/Make the universe a cuter place?

Oh yeah. Quite some time ago, I started fixing some of FU's hats that had similar issues to the vanilla ones this mod fixes. I had submitted those fixes to FU's Github page and they merged them in.

Gotcha, I just saw the github fix that was submitted
Cyan Sky Knight  [author] Mar 13, 2022 @ 5:35pm 
Yeah, I don't believe Frackin' fixes these hats.
the_silver_bandit Mar 13, 2022 @ 10:29am 
Hello, is this still needed if we are using FU?
micmou Nov 15, 2021 @ 4:31am 
Ohh I see that is unfortunate.
Cyan Sky Knight  [author] Nov 14, 2021 @ 11:41pm 
The mask can be made perfectly to the shape of the hat, but it can't hide a characters head, only sprites overlayed over the head, like hair, avian beaks, etc.
micmou Nov 14, 2021 @ 7:52pm 
Isnt there a sprite mask? Is it maybe that the sprite mask just needs a few pixels added to it? Normally games that do this use such a thing to essentially erase the unneeded pixels. I dont see why starbound would be any diffrent.
Cyan Sky Knight  [author] Nov 14, 2021 @ 3:13pm 
Masks only change whether or not hair is displayed, sadly.
micmou Nov 14, 2021 @ 3:09pm 
Kind of a long shot but is there any chance this could be fixed. https://i.imgur.com/gekkMCX.png
The Pharitu race from FU has a abnormal head size and certain helmets dont mask correctly leading to pixel peek. You can notice it with the hazmat mask in the above image the purple pixels peeking out are the skin color.

Amazing news, I can finally look like a dunce yet keep my beak!
Cyan Sky Knight  [author] Sep 6, 2020 @ 12:29am 
I'm a bit late with this, but my fixes were merged in, so all of the FU hats I saw that had those issues are now fixed. :winter2019happybulb:
Cyan Sky Knight  [author] Aug 30, 2020 @ 7:06pm 
I made the fixes for FU helms and Sayter said they will be added in. FU currently has a feature freeze until they finish their new progression system though, so it'll probably be a while before they merge my fixes in. I'll post again when they merge them in.
tazzan Aug 28, 2020 @ 10:37am 
It does indeed. One such example is the Dunce hat which gets rid of your facial features when you put it on, much like the hats you fixed
Cyan Sky Knight  [author] Aug 27, 2020 @ 2:42pm 
Does FU have problems with masks? I'll check it out. If I work on a fix, it would be best for me to directly fix FU itself rather than make an addon.
tazzan Aug 27, 2020 @ 1:33pm 
could you make a version of this for FU?
Boiled Potatoes Jun 24, 2020 @ 4:22pm 
Welp, gave my floran a beak
Cyan Sky Knight  [author] May 24, 2020 @ 2:47pm 
Yeah, the mask files are part of the hats themselves. It doesn't affect non-vanilla hats though.
AlexiSalt May 24, 2020 @ 2:08pm 
does this affect non-vanilla races?
Cyan Sky Knight  [author] Dec 31, 2019 @ 11:01am 
No, this is only for the hats in the vanilla game.
AbyssStarer Dec 31, 2019 @ 7:25am 
Does this also go for FU hats? Like the dunce cap.

Now you can be DJ Grooves.
Sophie the Opossum Nov 29, 2018 @ 11:23pm 
fair enough
Cyan Sky Knight  [author] Nov 28, 2018 @ 2:12pm 
Sorta. They made their own fixes. My mod has some small differences that I can't remember right now. My mod would have to load after theirs to take effect. You're probably better off just using their mod.
Sophie the Opossum Nov 28, 2018 @ 4:24am 
is this included in the starbound patch project?
mglw’nafh fhthagn-ngah Sep 15, 2018 @ 10:31am 
Hey man! i wanted to thank you for making this mod and also advice you that the black hood is having the same issue as the afro. Anyways thx!
toohightoplay Aug 1, 2018 @ 10:16am 
well when u spawn it with admin its called tricorn hat but its called hornedtricorn
GerbilRex Apr 7, 2018 @ 4:28pm 
Thank you!!! Now my avian no longer looks like a wierd floran!
smushedtomato Jan 27, 2018 @ 9:56am 
That's alright. I completely understand why this can't be fixed. I'm just glad that the issue isn't with any of the cosmetic loadouts that I commonly use.
Cyan Sky Knight  [author] Jan 26, 2018 @ 9:24pm 
Some Skelekin jaws extend further to the front than my masks draw.

I don't think I could fix this, because extending the masks to display their horns would also make other race's hair clip out of the side of helmets. Sorry!
smushedtomato Jan 26, 2018 @ 7:33pm 
I have subscribed to this, and it doesn't seem to work with custom races (or at least just the Skelekin race mod. I don't know about other custom races). Do you know if this is possible to fix? Also, as a side note, I have Frackin Universe installed, so that may cause an interference due to it changing some of the cosmetic armor items to become armor. Thanks in advance.
Cyan Sky Knight  [author] Jan 12, 2018 @ 5:27pm 
It doesnt add wearable masks for the player characters. It's a bugfix for a kind of file hats in this game uses called a mask. This "mask" tells the game where to draw hair, beards, Avian fluff, and Avian beaks; and where to hide it. Some of Starbound's hats don't have very good mask files, and remove an Avian's face when worn! My mod fixes that.
I love air conditioning Jan 12, 2018 @ 3:29pm 
i cant craft the avian mask only i can craft the hylolt and floran mask why?
Cyan Sky Knight  [author] Nov 21, 2017 @ 9:37am 
It only should affect sprites, so there should be no issues in multiplayer. Only people with the mod installed will see its effects though.
Silk Nov 21, 2017 @ 7:38am 
Is this client-side?
DrPvtSkittles Aug 26, 2017 @ 3:04am 
Fantastic mod
Cyan Sky Knight  [author] Aug 10, 2017 @ 1:44pm 
Yeah, but if Glitch Armor Edits or its variants load last, beards will look shorter. That's the only issue I know that's caused by having both installed at the same time.

You can completley avoid the issue by loading Hat Mask Fixes last.

I forgot about the mask file in Glitch Armor Edits, so the last screenshot on this page shows the "bug"
Dipster Aug 10, 2017 @ 1:12pm 
is this conpatable with your glitch helmet sprite mods
Cyan Sky Knight  [author] Jun 13, 2017 @ 3:52pm 
Sorry for the late reply, @OnFireZyGram. I just tested it and it works for 1.3!
Rambler Jun 13, 2017 @ 1:36pm 
Finally, my birds face will stay in one piece when putting on hats. Thank you very much.
Someone Jun 10, 2017 @ 6:39am 
works with 1.3 ?

@vinchenzojackal&shoon Seeing how many mods that fix things in Starbound, and seeing how many of those fixes where added, its most likely possible that this will be fixed, but it is just an asthetic thing.
VinchenzoTheJackal & Shoon Mar 30, 2017 @ 9:13pm 
An awesome fix that should be added in the next Starbound update!
Probably won't, but you never know, select other modders have had their fixes added in updates...
Until then, I rate up, favorite, and subscribe.
Xaliber Mar 29, 2017 @ 10:33pm 
Hiya Cyan Sky Night, I have listed your mods to a collection of Starbound Bug & Typo Fixes . Please let me know if there are more bug fixes that can be added to the list.

Thanks for the hard work!
