Worm off a String - Tadpole replacer

"Wyrm, O most vivid wyrm, untethered. What misdeeds shall you commit?"

- So Sayeth the Prophet Alaundo

April Fools!

This mod replaces the tadpole model with a beautiful worm on a string. Or, a worm off the string. Most of the props have been changed to match.

Although most worms are blue, you may find some interesting variants, should you look...

Cutting Edge in Worm Technology

The mod works by overwriting the visual code for the meshes and giving them new materials and code pathways, so it should be compatible with pretty much anything.

It does not use virtual textures.

I can't change the pre-rendered stuff, so no putting a worm in Lae'zel's ear in the opening cinematic, alas.

I left the icons and text alone because I would need to overwrite all the item code to change them, and someone might have an actual legitimate use case for doing that.

How to Install

Recommended that you install with BG3 Mod Manager. A guide to BG3MM installation of mods can be found here.

To uninstall the mod, just disable it, it's solely a replacer mod so it shouldn't be baked into your save in any way. (Obligatory warning that uninstalling any mod mid-playthrough isn't the best idea in the world.)
