📋 About This Mod
I recently tried out "A Cat's Life" and am so glad I did- it's an awesome mod. Since I love it so much, I decided I wanted to make some new textures for the lovely kitties, and figured I'd share :)
It's certainly not perfect, there are definitely some areas that could use touching up (seriously, DarkFox senpai, teach me how you did your texturing for the patterns on their coats and how you got the colors to line up right, cuz that shiz is hard 😭), but ya girl is tired and needs a nap, so I'm gonna make myself stop hyperfixating on this and debating how weird people would think it is if I added börthöles working on this for now and just upload the dang thing as is.
I might give learning how to do the whole fomod thing a shot soon-ish so people can mix and match the eye colors they want, but for now, there's the standard version that is closer to the original mod with regards to kitty eye colors, an alternate version with a little more variety in eye color, and a third version with some more exotic eye colors mixed in.
There are also now versions of each of the above with round pupils.
There are also two optional alternate meshes for the injured kitties. The first changes them all to have a slightly cut ear tip, and the second only affects a few and also adds one type that isn't missing both eyes but still has scars (meshes only, no esp or anything.)
A big thank you to DarkFox127 for making the mod in the first place, and also for giving me permission to upload this one :)
