📋 About This Mod

Unique Children Talk

Dialogues for Children.

Works in Singleplayer and Multiplayer.

You don't need my other mod 'Unique Children', it also works with vanilla children!

(or any other children mods (as long as they don't turn children into npcs))

Start the Game and a new file 'Config.json' will be create.

Open it and edit it like you want:

"language": "en",

"relationname_Mother": "Mum",

"relationname_Father": "Dad",

"relationname_Aunt": "Aunt",

"relationname_Uncle": "Uncle",

"relationname_Spouse_Mother": "Mum",

"relationname_Spouse_Father": "Dad"

You can edit how the children should call you.

"relationname_Mother" = you as female

"relationname_Father" = you as male

"relationname_Aunt" = other players as female

"relationname_Uncle" = other players as male

"relationname_Spouse_Mother" = your female spouse

"relationname_Spouse_Father" = your male spouse

You also can change the language.

This mod already contains english (en) and german (de).

For more language please look under 'Description/Translations'.

The childs have 2 dialogues each day (before 12:00, after 12:00) & extra dialogues (when they are in bed, when they sit).

They also have their own dialogues for every festival.

You don't need to do anything else. The mod use automatically the children sprites for the portraits.

But if you want your own portraits images, then just place your png file(s) to the assets/Portrait folder and rename it like your child.

For example:

assets/Portraits/Childname.png

Or for different clothes (optional):

Childname.png (for day 1,5,9,13,17,21,24)

Childname2.png (for day 2,6,10,14,18,22,26)

Childname3.png (for day 3,7,11,15,19,23,27)

Childname4.png (for day 4,8,12,16,20,24,28)

Optional for specific season:

(for example winter)

Childname_Winter.png

Childname_Winter2.png

Childname_Winter3.png

Childname_Winter4.png

Optional for a specific day for all seasons:

(for example 25. day of the month)

Childname25.png

Optional for a specific day for a specific season:

(for example 25. day of winter)

Childname_Winter25.png

(if you have pngs for all seasons and for a specific season, the mod will prefer the season png)

Or you can use any other Portrait Mods.

For HD Portraits use 'Portraiture':

(Just create a new folder in Mods\Portraiture\Portraits\ (for example Mods\Portraiture\Portraits\NameOftheChild\) and put the Portrait
