* Start a local server with '''Dream Daemon''' | |||
* Join with your '''BYOND client''' | |||
* (optional) Pick a jobs with the clothes you want for your screenshots | |||
* (optional) Build a 3x3 of tables and climb on them. The best place to do this is the lockerroom near arrivals. The even background of the tables will make it so much easier to crop out the background later. | |||
* Rightclick your mob > Your name > View Variables | |||
* Use the '''"select option"-dropdownmenu''' to change your mobtype | |||
** Set species | |||
** Make cyborg | |||
** Other options include "Make alien" and "Make slime" | |||
* Use the '''"select option"-dropdownmenu''' to modify your body | |||
** Modify bodypart | |||
** Modify organs | |||
* Make sure the area is well-lit | |||
** '''Tab Admin > Secrets > Fix all lights''' | |||
** '''Tab Admin > Secrets > Make all areas powered''' | |||
* Take screenshots (Shortcut F2) | |||
