Farmer Generator

The Farmer Generator is a tool for the Modern Farm Asset Pack to make creating Farmers easy.

Guide

–Creating Your Farmer–

To the top of the screen you'll see five dropdowns. Click on any of them to reveal their options. Each dropdown lets you change a different part of your Farmer.

At the middle of the screen is a preview of your Farmer, it'll automatically update as you change the dropdowns.

-Items/Tools

Farmers have one main difference from the characters in Modern Interiors. Most of the farmer animations require an additional item (Shovel, watering can, etc).

These items have animations which extend past the 16x32 border the farmer has. Because of that, items are separate from the farmers and must be overlayed on top of the farmer with the animation played in sync.

When a farmer is saved it will be saved without the item meaning the animation may look strange on it's own.

-Tabs-

To the right of the tabs is a button with a save icon. Clicking this button opens a popup allowing you to save your farmer as a png file on your computer.

Select the size you want your farmer to be, and type the name. You can optionally save either the entire spritesheet or a specific animation

Once saved, you'll be shown statistics about how many Farmers have been created and a button will be shown which when clicked will show where your farmer was saved.

-Animation Tab-

This tab allows you to change the animation being played in the Farmer preview. Animations are categorized by item. All items contain idle & walk animations in addition to:

-Shovel: Dig

-Watering Can: Water

-No Item: Harvest

-Axe: Chop

-Fishing Rod: Cast, Fishing-Idle, Reel In, Caught

-Randomize Tab-

On the right page of the book is a set of toggles. You can use these to toggle which parts of the Farmer you want to randomize.

On the left page of the book is a button labeled "Randomize", clicking it will randomize all parts of the Farmer that have been toggled on.

-History Tab-

This tab contains a list of the last 30 character modifications and saved farmers. The default view shows your previous Farmer edits. Every time you change any piece of your farmer it will be logged here. You can use this to revert any changes you make.

At the bottom of the tab you can change the view mode from "Modifications" to "Saved" which shows your last 30 saved Farmers.

-Test Farmer Tab-

This tab contains a singular button which when clicked will transport you to a simulated world where you can try out your Farmer and preview all animations.

-Hotkeys-

This is a list of hotkeys which can make using the Farmer Generator faster:

- Open Save Popup: 'S'

- Open Info Popup: 'I'

- Randomize Farmer: 'R'

- Transfer to Simulated World: 'C'

Adding Custom Character Pieces

If you'd like to add your own character pieces to the Farmer Generator first locate the installation directy of the Farmer Generator (Defaults to Program Files (x86)).

From within that folder locate the "Character Pieces" folder which contains every character piece split into it's own folder. Simply go to the folder with the same type piece you want to add and drag and drop your new character piece into that folder. Note a 16x16 version is neccesary for it to be loaded when the tool is launched. Additional character pieces must be the same size as every other file in the same folder otherwise the file won't be loaded.
