📋 About This Mod

As of April 10th, the mod is no longer fully compatible with the latest version of the game.

If you still wish to use the mod you can downgrade to the Default_Old version in the games beta options on steam.

Likewise Version  2. 18. 2 of Jotunn would be needed as the mod doesn't work with it's latest update either.

An alternative playable race in the form of an elaborate set of armor

The base body  dey Cackle] uses the chest slot and only requires a single piece of wood to craft.

Note about Online:

For it to work on multiplayer, everyone would need to have the mod on to be able to see each other.

Features:

  • []Playable gnolls & frens with multiple color variants

    []Custom crafting table & other buildables

  • []Custom sets of armor for each current tier

    • []Custom set of armor for each tier

      []Custom hair and additional accessories if possible

      []Model swaps for enemy mobs

      • []Swapping to a vanilla chest armor directly from the base will make the texture overlay of the chest armor not appear

                  This can be easily fixed by just re-equipping the chest armor, or taking off the base before equipping the vanilla armor

      • []Most existing armor doesn't fit anymore visually

                  However you can still wear a ew without too much issue

      • []Shorter beards will look a little silly poking out from the underside of the jaw, but bigger beards still kind of work well enough, 

                 I recommend making a new character, or finding a character editor to change your beard and hair.

      Compatibility Issues:

      • []To be determined

        Hyena, Gnoll, Anthro, Furry, Beast, Skin, Playable

        Special thanks to GoldenJude, the maker of the Blacksmith Tools, for all the help they gave me along the way

        Also to Jules, Tekla, GoldenJude, Zarboz, Balrond, MarcoPogo, and Koosemose

        Thanks for all their help in piecing together the scripts! \o/

  • Four different creature types gives you variety in one mod

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Check if your game version is compatible with the June 2023 update — if you're on a newer patch, test in a backup save first.
  • Since it's armor-based, you'll need to actually equip the armor in-game to see the transformation — don't expect an instant morph.
  • Use the building pieces to create a themed camp or den to match your new form.
