Would be really cool to have those extra options for female leaders imo! I made a faction that's meant to look like trolls out of goblins in the older version of this mod that stopped working when the devs added body shape selection themselves because their leader now looks tiny.

This should add 3 shapes for males and 1 for female. Mostly because I've never wanted the male orc or male elf bodies for female leaders.
Wulf 18 Aug @ 5:52pm 
I think I'm experiencing a bug. The extra body shapes show up for males, but not female characters.
Khornelia 12 Aug @ 11:56am 
Thank you for the super quick update! <3

um no
AppleJuice 11 Apr @ 1:21am 
Fair enough. Guess I'll take a break until those mod updates come around since so much of my factions ended up bricked.
Phalanx 10 Apr @ 9:55am 
OH boy! People are planning on adding giant body shapes to the other races? Can't wait!
chickensmasher  [author] 9 Apr @ 12:39am 
only added a few because I think the Wonderful Forms guy is making a bigger body shapes mod so no reason to have two when they can't work together, also if any Ogre hotfixes affect body shapes the entire mod needs to be remade

if they finish patching Ogre and the other mod doesn't happen I could add more

no plans with Giants because I think a couple others are planning a giant body shapes mod too

Oh got it. I fixed it with a reinstall, but shame that the rest of the cross-gender frames are no longer available. Any way to re-implement those or somehow update back to the old version?

Nice! Thank you for the body shapes!
chickensmasher  [author] 4 Apr @ 11:46pm 
@AppleJuice No if you see the "frame" slider the mod hasn't updated properly. Maybe try unsubscribe-resubscribe
Khornelia 4 Apr @ 8:57pm 
@Malhavoc This may not help in every case, but I always have to copy my content_load.json file from "Documents\Paradox Interactive\Age of Wonders 4" to "AppData\Roaming\Paradox Interactive\Age of Wonders 4" whenever I change my mods at all or nothing happens.
Khornelia 4 Apr @ 8:09pm 
Aw, shame that the really beefy bodytypes aren't there anymore. But thank you for the update! <3
AppleJuice 4 Apr @ 12:49am 
Currently the new body selections from the official game don't seem to do anything and then I have a slider with the same functionality as the pre-patch frame options. Is that intended?

Separately, any plans to do anything weird with the Giants?
Malhavoc 2 Apr @ 10:37am 
@chickensmasher
Yeah, I found out that mods SHOULD be working, but nothing I do is working to get my mods running. Selected the correct Playset, launcher says the mods are enabled. Everything is green across the board. Load the game and try to make a new Faction and Ruler, and it doesn't have the slider, or mod banners, or mod colors, or ANYTHING.

So I got no clue what to do. Tried verifying the files, unsubbing and resubbing to the mods, reinstalling the game. None of it has worked so far.
chickensmasher  [author] 1 Apr @ 11:50pm 
it should be showing up, the screenshot above is from today's patch

@Phalanx Ogre wasn't a choice before, do you mean the orc male or female? Unless you want the orc male shape for females it should be covered
Malhavoc 1 Apr @ 12:46pm 
EDIT: So I am a derpy bastard and didn't read the full patch notes where it says the update will disable ALL mods for awhile. Quite annoying, since I am sure it will have reset the cosmetics on all my custom rulers.
Malhavoc 1 Apr @ 11:31am 
So I am not seeing the Body Tone slider show up at all. Did the update nuke everything, or is there something else derpy?
Furin 1 Apr @ 7:54am 
Essential mod, so essential it became canon.
Phalanx 1 Apr @ 7:47am 
@chickensmasher aaah bummer.

I was using the Ogre shape for some of my races. Any chance you will update again to add the missing shapes?

Your mod is one I used for such a long time, I'm happy you convinced the devs to make it official.
chickensmasher  [author] 1 Apr @ 6:22am 
so now this just adds the halfling shape, a couple cross-bodytype shapes, and the tone slider
NeverZero 19 Mar @ 11:49am 
Sadly no halfling shape in the official beta patch yet. I dislike using only dwarf/goblin shaped bodies, too stocky
Ravencroft 19 Mar @ 9:38am 
Agreed! I'd love you to keep the body tone slider. Muscle Elves for all!
Ranger Dimitri 18 Mar @ 10:45pm 
I think it'd be worth keeping the body tone slider, cause yeah it'd be worth giving elves abs, or any other race abs for that matter.
chickensmasher  [author] 18 Mar @ 7:31pm 
Devs added a body shape picker in the Ogre update!
If you're using the beta make sure you disable this mod.

When Ogre goes live I'll either completely kill this mod with an update just in case or maybe only leave in the body tone slider so I can keep giving my elves abs.
So unsubscribe if you don't need that.
Phnx 14 Mar @ 4:15am 
Thank you so much for this! :steamthumbsup: :lunar2019coolpig: I will mod your mod for myself and rename "body type" to what it actually is: sex!
Ravencroft 7 Mar @ 4:04am 
Came here to say Congrats also!
NeverZero 6 Mar @ 1:47pm 
Congrats! Never thought I would see the day this becomes official. :KidHat:
Them8 6 Mar @ 8:46am 
You made it in to next update congrats!
The Wriggler 15 Feb @ 7:52am 
Excellent for making monkey-sized monkeys, 10/10.
PTLANS 16 Nov, 2024 @ 9:08pm 
The super growth turned my goblin giants into manlets is there no way to have the slider and transformation work together? Even with super growth the smaller forms only reach medium size.
WolfWithShadow 14 Nov, 2024 @ 12:34pm 
Thanks for the update!
chickensmasher  [author] 13 Nov, 2024 @ 6:26pm 
reverted the change, animals can wear human skin again

supergrown/spawnkin overrides the slider only cause that seemed more like "vanilla"

if anyone has the bugs visie maigo mentioned try forcing the mod to update
WolfWithShadow 13 Nov, 2024 @ 3:39pm 
May I still have the older version of the mod? I was making my ruler cosplay as a character in anime. (A Lupine with human body)
zombiechiglin 13 Nov, 2024 @ 12:16pm 
I'm having problems editing the body frame of ascended rulers with supergrowth ascension form. The slider doesn't change the body frame
Visie Maigo 11 Nov, 2024 @ 10:22pm 
A few bugs to report:
1) The premade Skonyru character has his eyes below his eye sockets in the faction creator and hero screen.
2) In the faction creator, female Simian rulers use a male body type with the Defender sword + shield configuration.
Devian 5 Nov, 2024 @ 9:13am 
Thanks !
chickensmasher  [author] 5 Nov, 2024 @ 7:31am 
updated for WoW/oni+monke
PTLANS 2 Nov, 2024 @ 12:18am 
This is absolutely necessary. Should be part of the base game. Well done.
Shadow Wolf 11 Oct, 2024 @ 2:34pm 
@Yubi noted lol
Snaxxor 7 Oct, 2024 @ 6:57am 
nice, you can easily make like a giant/half-giant race with that super tall dwarf. very awesome
Furin 15 Sep, 2024 @ 2:23pm 
Very nice mod, so many possibilities, well done.
Visie Maigo 3 Sep, 2024 @ 10:00am 
Really enjoyed this mod on my recent playthrough. I was able to make a kobold race of short lizard people. Great job!
GrandMajora 9 Aug, 2024 @ 4:48am 
"Tired of lanky elf men?" - NO, the elves already have a big enough superiority complex. Now you want to give them the physique of Conan!?
Ringwraith 8 Aug, 2024 @ 3:01am 
Truly a Godir among mere mortals. Thanks for this,
chickensmasher  [author] 6 Aug, 2024 @ 8:41pm 
until this is patched, this overwrites the supergrowth changes from Mystic 1.3 Update
pelias117 3 Aug, 2024 @ 6:39pm 
I miss the enlarged head mod, but this is a good start.
