• This mod updates the looks of the existing Bongo (Tragelaphus eurycerus). Many changes were applied because we all know Frontier's bongo is sinfully terrible.
• The remaster changes the look of the male and female, the juvenile is the same.
• New UI images, including zoopedia and thumbnails.
This mod requires ACSE to work. Make sure you have it installed beforehand!
To install this mod, simply extract the zip and place the extracted folder in the ovldata folder of the game. Unlike other mods, this remaster doesn't require replacing the original files to work and will apply by just placing it in the ovldata folder!
Enjoy the mod. Cheers!

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 275 endorsements and nearly 12k downloads
- Fixes a visual inaccuracy that bothers animal enthusiasts
- Simple drop-in mod that doesn't mess with gameplay
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects the bongo—if you're not using bongos, this is pointless
- No updates since December 2022, so it might lag behind future RimWorld versions
- Potential conflicts with other animal texture overhauls that touch bongos
For RimWorld players who care about animal accuracy and want their bongos to look right. If you're a completionist or just like polished visuals, this is a quick win. Skip if you don't use bongos or want gameplay changes—this is purely cosmetic.
