Hey, bro! I stumbled across this one post that,I made a true deepone skin from the material I already had, put the file in "\LonaRPG\ModScripts\PaletteChanger" and deleted the .txt suffix
I don't understand what I'm doing wrong.

I follow the instructions to put the mod but it simply doesn't work, is it because the dev changed something again or am I overlooking something?

Hey, genuinely confused but how do i play this on a VM (Virtual Machine) like Parallels desktop. Do i need some type of software because ive done what the guide says if the game doesnt work and it still doesnt work. any tips?
What exactly do you mean? It's super easy to play this on a VM, ideally running an OS from the era that VX Ace was made in (I have personally done so with VMWare player, Windows XP with the unofficial SP4, and the required redistributables [only directx june 2010 if you keep the runtime DLLs that are included with the game])

List the steps you've been taking to install the mod.
Extract the contents of the attached zip into ModScripts/PaletteChanger/.
Made using the transformations file from 0.7.8.0 but works in 0.7.7.1 (removed the first 2 nodes)

hello everyone! help me please
how do I complete quest "Rescue Gray Rat's partner!"? getting in place is not a problem but how tf do I get out of there? npcs start fighting once they see enemies so trying to get there while the timer still didnt run out doesnt work. but after the timer is gone there are like 10 enemies and it is just impossible to kill all of them without any of teammates being killed...

Have the teammates wait in the room where Cecily was being held captive, then use whatever tactics you need to kill the enemies (I play with cheats, so it is alot easier for me, but even without cheats it should be possible if you have enough stealth, food, potions, the bow and patience; "From the Shadows" trait is highly recommended for stealth tactics, but requires grinding to level 15 [level 40 for it's big brother])

That's a tricky mission where you have to use all follower controllers at your disposal (and items).
If it's the same mission I remember, you may have to make full use of stealth/rock throwing and activating the mines around the room for maximum damage.
You also need to position Greyrat facing the door to tank the remaining enemies, while you stay on the side to slash their flank

as I said - I already made my way to the room so no need in stealth anymore. and I tried to tank with Grey rat but he is dumb as fuck and simply doesnt attack anyone. but the guy above gave me an idea - Ill get a bow and do damage instead of him. I really hope itll work otherwise I just dont know what to do...

I am looking for how to use F5F6F7F8F9 in joiPlay.
Would of helped to mention that before.

Anyway, unless you attach a keyboard (whatever method works best with your android) you need to change the controls.
You can save used controls by only binding F9 as F5, F7 and F8 are just convenience for stuff that is in the cheats menu.

If you are able to maintain stealth, the bow's snipe is OP (lots of damage and hits multiple, lined up enemies).
Otherwise traps (the skill for which also requires level 15) should help thin the enemies (planning ahead of time is a super helpful tactic) You could also re-purpose as many of the mines in the area as you can (you can collect them by interacting with them)

uh... are you sure that you can pick up traps by interacting with them? tried it right now, didnt work
and further stealth tactics wont work because I have only 5 in scoutcraft

UPD: nevermind, bow tactic wont work because I cant pick "weapon expertise" trait...

I did the quest without ranged weapons, as succ lona, just position greyrat in front, Cecily in one side and me in the other.
It did involve some savescumming sometimes when greyrat lost aggro

I pressed F5,F6,F7,F8,F9 and did not show any symptoms. Is there a workaround or do I need to add more mods?ฝ

Umm... I specifically said you can pickup mines, not traps.
Traps will break when you interact with them with a high enough Scoutcraft. Mines get collected instead. 5 might not be enough if that's not happening.

Maybe list out what traits you have and what equipment you have.

Which joiplay download are you using? Either should work as long as the instructions have been followed.
The only thing not included in those instructions is a recommended control scheme.

Is there any way of using controllers with the Joiplay version? And not the virtual gamepads, I mean something like Xbox controllers.

You're gonna have to use the MTL tool until someone translates the new dialog in 0.7.8.0. Keep in mind that the new version has not yet been posted here (and is already out-dated)

Just an FYI, ProjectS001 can't do the translation until the KR patch is updated to the new version (and is AFAIK currently busy with 0.7.7.1)

iirc you don't even need a tool for it, the translations are in txt file, hell i even used notepad++ to change the dialogue
