Where it goes

Is Beasts of Men required on the client, server, or both?

It must be installed on the client. Installation on the dedicated server is optional.

Client Required

This release supports both sides, but the source does not require it on the server.

The Beasts of Men

A themed character pack based on popular monster girls.



New Race:

New Race:

Hoppers

 

A race of Leporidae. They have long, often floppy ears and short, bushy tails.

Alphas

 

A race of Canines. These encompass dogs, wolves, and foxes as some of their most notable subspecies. They have pointed ears and long, furry tails.

Longshanks

 

A race of Muridae. This encompasses mice, rats, and other small vermin. They have rounded ears and short, skinny tails. Their size also allows them to fit through smaller holes.

Purrlian

 

A race of Felines. This encompasses both large and small cat species. They have pointy ears and long, skinny, haired tails.

Windstriders

 

A race of Avians. This encompasses birds of all sizes and colorations. They have wings either along their arms or sprouting from their backs and feathered plumage from their waist.

Goober

 

A race of slimes, these little goobers come in various colorful iterations and are mostly see through! They are otherwise humanoid!

Bugger

 

A race of commonly winged often small insectoids, these creatures range from antlike, mothlike, spiderlike, and most often bee-like. They come in various colors and shapes.

 

Patch Mods for Extra Outfits!
To Come!
More races! These will come out as their own standalone mods for people who might prefer not to have 40 whole things to choose from! I intend to do a fantasy pack (already have hobbits ready with their size along with goblins), more monstrous races (slimes, lamia, etc), and anthro races (because this started off as me making my own furry model).
FAQs

'You should change Alpha into something not cringe!'
You should make your own mod.

'I saw your post on reddit and now I'm curious when you'll add traits. Are you working on that?'
Yup. Working on it.

'I'd like to add my own coloration/entire race to this but don't know how. How could I get that in?'
Link a picture and maybe I can work on it. I also intend on adding a tutorial on how to make your own races through the playerlib mod. At the moment I'm working on trying to figure out how to stabilize some of the issues below so I do not feel comfortable doing paid work or commissions 

'Why are you adding furry things to vintage story? Is it because of Hytale??'
I have had an interest in this game long before Hytale devs were hired on.

'Did anyone ever actually ask these questions? This mod just came out!'
I've been posting WIPs on Reddit. Almost all of these questions or sentiments have been shared.

'My breasts stick out of this armor from this other mod and my mouse looks weird in these other modded clothes.'
Share the mod and I can maybe make a patch for it. Every piece of clothing and armor that you might want to wear requires its own modded shape for the female body or the mouse's reduced size. Mice, for example, have a resized version of every wearable in the game at the moment. There might be a smarter way to handle resizing these things. If anyone would like to offer a solution who has modding experience with Vintage Story, let me know.

'Combat Overhaul? Combat Overhaul!? COMBAT OVERHAUL!?
It seems to work. If there are any issues let me know. Even the Longshanks seem to work with Combat Overhaul despite their reduced size.

Dependencies and Why

At the moment, the only dependency should be with player model lib.

The reason for this is that it adds the functionality to easily import other models into the game using the basic seraphim template as well as providing other functionality like resizing your hitbox. It's made by the same person who made the Combat Overhaul mod so hopefully it'll continue to improve and get better as he seems pretty fucking intelligent.

Known Issues
-Certain racial parts will have some texture thrashing issues when they're perfectly overlaid over each other. I've snuffed this out for most places where it comes up, but there may be clothes with unusual forms I might've missed. Never hesitate to post which clothes are doing it so I can either adjust the clothing shape or the racial shapes.

-With Combat Overhaul, you'll need to adjust your arm height in the interface settings when playing different sizes!

- Most modded clothes won't fit the breasted body type! I'm intending to do some of the more popular ones eventually but that takes time!
