📋 About This Mod
What this mod is:
This is a Boo mesh replacer. This mod gives Boo a pirate hat, an eye patch and a sword on a belt.
This mod doesn't change anything else but Boo's appearance.
This mod was made with the official toolkit and is compatible with patch 8
Known issue:
There is a summoned version of Boo that has a slightly different color scheme from all the other Boo versions. The hat and eye patch should be an exact match, but due to how that summon is set up, the color of the belt is off and there is nothing I can do. There is an example in the pictures. This version of Boo might be encountered in the sewers, he will have a lighter colored belt.
