📋 About This Mod

I have abandoned this mod. Please use these files in any way you wish. I have no desire to hold license over them. I did this for the gaming communities enjoyment. And my own of course.

Known conflicts: Improved Atmosphere http://www.dragonagenexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=577 Fix: Locate the APR_BASE.gda in the installed file "C:Users(you)DocumentsBioWareDragon AgepackagescoreoverrideImproved Atmosphere5. Miscellaneous5. 1. Bodies Stay" I have a replacement for that file in the additional files. After you replace it, rename the improved Atmosphere APRBase. GDA "APR_Base.gda.old" or the game will have issues when any wolves spawn.

============================================================

Version History 0. 1: Initial release 0. 2: Made the Blood Wolf a separate creature that does not interfere with other creature resources. Creature ID 61001 1. 0: Tested and does not effect any Mabari hounds. 1. 01: Removed accidental inclusion of Crust effect ::repeatedly beat head against desk after seeing a flaming headed Mabari in the party:: 0. 9: Downgraded due to tat's functioning on the wolf when previously they never had. 1. 1: Updated zip to include War Paint overrides. Does not effect NPC Mabari. 1. 9: Optionally, you can replace most of the NPC and ambient Mabari with the Blight Wolf model. That install uninstall guide is included in the .zip as it's very simple. NPC Mabari creature ID 61002. 1. 91: Generated new gen00fl_dog.utc due to possible corruption in the file that disallowed naming of Dog. 1. 92: A fixed crust effect from 1. 01 cropped up again. Repaired and replaced files. 1. 93: Problem with removal of files corrupting party selection corrected by removal of gen00fl_dog.utc to rely on APL_Base solely for model alterations. Rebuilt all ZIPs. 1. 94: Added 2 NPC UTC files so that Dog appears as the altered model at Ostagar, and at the epilogue for continuance. 1. 94. 1: Added 2 Black texture Wolves to list of possible models for Dog.
