Please Update

doesn't seem to work in 3.8

Hi SethSteiner, would you be ok if I included this mod in my patch that condenses all portraits mods in vanilla's species_classes? Your mod would be a requirement for my patch and users would have to subscribe to your mod. I will not take any credit and/or include any of your art in my mod (only changing species_class to fit the portraits under humanoids). https://sp.zhabite.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2800218111

Does anybody know how to modify this to be compatible with the newest version of the game?

@The Endangered Carmine : I disagree that they are xenophile simply because they have a deal with the emperor but they're certainly more militarist than xenophobic. However, the only way to be a true isolationnist is with the Inward Perfection civic and thus some degree of xenophobia.

Wait shouldn't the Chiss be Xenophile rather then Xenophobic since while they were very loyal to the Galactic Empire the Chiss were no where nearly as xenophobic as the Galactic Empire was.

@ Ratzatz-GER A Ship Set would be nice.

Hi can I use elements (I believe it will be mostly all of them) to produce a new Chiss mod? It would also name you in the credits.

Pls update :(

...Perhaps 1.8 instead

Just checking in to see when an update to 1.6.2 might be coming along. Keep up the great work! :)

Thanks SethSteiner!

I have updated it for 1.6.1.

Sry it sometimes takes a bit for me, since I am not always seeing that there is an update. I also still need to look deeper into the changes of Paradox for the compatibility with other species mod. At the moment I am updating it as I can for the new versions and when I have more time I am working on the details. :)

Any chance to update to 1.6(.1)?

Can you update this for 1.5, and could you also have a seperate mod allowing us to use these uniforms on humans?

You won't be able too ultimuh, any species which adds to a race category, instead of creating a new one, conflicts with all other mods that alter that category since the 1.3 patch. Maybe they will fix this in 1.4 or maybe not, but making a category of your own is the only way to make races compatible, see the link below.

I cannot seem to have both this and 'The Psilons' species mod on at the same time.

Hope this helps. You've probably seen it but if not :D

I am assuming this is somewhat what the new custom race files need to have. The list of all of the default portraits and then the custom_portraits line to add in the custom races. If you have a pre-made empire with the portrait, it will show the portrait with the line above I provided, but when creating a new empire, you cannot see the portrait in the list, but the originals are still there. Hopefully this helps compatibility with other species. I will continue to work with this idea and see if I get any progress.

One thing I noticed looking at the original species_class file is that some races have a custom_portrait lin. Maybe thats the secret to getting custom races compatable. Ive been fiddling around with other custom races that are no longer being updated with no luck though.

HUM = {
portraits = {
"human"
"humanoid_02"
"humanoid_03"
"humanoid_04"
"humanoid_05"
}
custom_portraits = {#add additional portraits when customizing species
randomized = no
playable = yes
portraits = {
"chiss"
}
}
}

Okay I managed it that the Chiss would appear under humanoid but I am not sure about the compatibility with other species, that's still something I have to figure out.

Thx Max, I have to work on that a little bit. I took a look at The Pallid but all in all it didn't look different from my mod. Really annoying.

1.3 changed the structure of how species are set up. Try comparing the vanilla game's details with how you're adapting Chiss to those details (without overwriting vanilla species).

At the moment I can't see my species under humanoids but if I chose a custom name, it appears in that category. I don't really know what the reason is and I don't know if that happens with you guys too, let me know plz.

I updated it for 1.3 and put it under Humanoid.^^ Thanks for the heads up guys :)

I do not see them at all in 1,3 :( please fix your Chiss mode. The best race EVER! :)

If it does you would see it Mammalian not Humanoid.

Anyone know if this works with 1.3?

Hi Malakai,
I tried and would like to add a white uniform but unfortunatly I have no time at the moment, to work on that.

Great! Thank you! Can you change suit for the Ruler? To the white one! Like a suit of the Grand Admiral Trawn? ) Thx!

Great, thanks. And it goes without saying.

@Leviathan
I don't mind as long as you don't forget to mention the original source ;)

Do you mind if I integrate this into my own Star Wars mod?

Ouch, okay that's pretty bad, something like that shouldn't happen.

It was the Grand Admiral Thrawn mod. I had that alongside this one, and the mod creator there said it shouldn't be a problem. I can attest that they don't play well together. And his mod isn't save game compatible either, as after I uninstalled it, it broke all my save games.

Hey TheMule. I didn't encounter this problem but should anyone else, I hope he or she can give advice here, I think there is a high chance the reason lies in some other mod or incompability of multiple mods to each other. In any case, I am glad you like the mod.^^

Additionally, it doesn't say their species is Chiss. It says SW_Mam. Anyone have any ideas? I don't see anyone else with these problems, so I'm thinking it might be on my end. I do have several other mods installed, but I don't see how they could cause these issues.

This is a fantastic mod! I just encountered a bug though, and I'm not sure it's actually from this mod. I just encountered a Chiss civilization, and they don't have a name. It just says ' State' as if there is supposed to be another word in there, like 'Chiss State' or something. Also, their colony ship has no textures, and just has the multicolored polygons instead.

New Chiss homeworld mod is out, not sure its compatible or not: http://sp.zhabite.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=754940839

NM someone did it. Search for Imperial/Chiss Uniforms for Humans (Star Wars).

Hello, is it possible to get the uniforms for the human species?

Thanks SethSteiner .. Legendary :)

Thank you!

Updated to 1.2.4^^

@Gaydolf
Glad you could resolve the problem Gaydolf :D

Very nice .. but please update to 1.2.4

It seems that the problem was that I made my custom empire during patch 1.0, some of my other custom empires behaved the same way. Remaking it from scratch seems to have fixed it.

Anyways, keep up the good work!

@Gaydolf
Thank you. Regarding your problem it's the fest time I heard of it and I never encountered it myself, so I don't have a clue unfortunatly :(

Are you using any other mods that effect flags or colors?

Hey, awesome mod, really nice to roleplay as Chiss Ascendancy\Empire of the Hand.

The only problem I discovered is that whenever I use the custom Ascendancy symbol, upon loading a saved game it reverts to a random color\symbol combo. Any idea what might be causing this?

Anyone know where other Star Wars race mods are? I want to use the Chiss to conquer them.
