📋 About This Mod

What is this and what does this do?

-Its a small mod that changes Dogmeat into a Doberman Pinscher. All of the vanilla dog accessories have been refit to the new body shape and are also included in the mod.

Why?

-A while back I released screenshots of an older version of a Doberman I made and was going to just release it as is...but I wasn't happy with the original version. I've learned a lot since those screenshots were posted. So instead of just releasing it, I remade it. Its still not perfect but its leagues better that it was.

Compatibility:

-This is a replacer, meaning it affects Dogmeat directly. As mentioned before I did fit all the vanilla dog accessories to the new shape and included them. The items all still use vanilla textures so any re-textures should still work.

-This also means any Mod Added accessories/armors/equipped items made to fit Dogmeats' normal mesh will likely not fit the new model and will need some editing to look right.

-While the vanilla accessories are refit to the Doberman mesh, seeing the same items on vanilla Raider Dogs or Viscous Mongrels may have the items floating/clipping strangely with them. This is not a bug. That happens because they use the same models for the accessories as Dogmeat does. The nature of using a replacer.
