📋 About This Mod
"You saved the game for me. A must-have mod!"
skinnydrumma says:
"Definitely an improvement! endorsed."
Another forgotten, awful looking creature on low, medium, high and ultra high settings. This mod fixes that.
Using my own textures I have given the goats a cleaner, less pixelated look.
This mod re-textures goats.

- Simple texture replacement—no complex setup required
⚠️ Cons

💡 Beginner Tips
- Since this is a texture replacement, place the files in your game's Data folder or use a mod manager to avoid overwriting other mods.
- If you're using other texture mods, load Better Goats after them to ensure its textures take priority.
- Check if your game version supports high-resolution textures; older versions might not display them properly.
