Adding a new tail in game?
« on: November 21, 2018, 10:11:23 am »
I was looking through some mods and noticed that there are a few tail mods available out there.
The one that I liked the most was Ruby's canine tail for felines mod.
It looks very much like a cat tail and there are a lot of warrior cat RPers in the game, so having a tail like this, in the official Update would definitely be of use.

Currently we have the ''Tailess'' option in the character creator, which is not really a no tail option, it's rather the same as the Lynx tail.
So, switching that with the ''Tailess'' and changing the name would be cool.

Now of course, you'll either need her approval for this, or create a custom one from the canine model, as she said that this mod is only put on the feline skeleton, from the canine model.

Here's a preview of her mod, along with the link to the original post (click on the photo):





So, what do you think about this?
It seems like a possible thing to do. And we don't have any use of the ''Tailess'' mod anyways.
I'd definitely use this a lot if it were available as an official thing from FH ^^ c:

That looks like a nice idea, this would be used for characters to show that the tail is fluffier I guess?

Most likely. It would definitely be useful for people who have perhaps longhaired cats as characters.

I too like the idea. I know it's possible to replace tails, but is it possible to make more tail options? I know you can add markings and items, but no idea if the same can be said for tails.

I approve of this idea. Simple name file changing would never do any harm. But, adding completely new tails or updating old ones officially could throw people off. So if that were the case, I suppose a poll would be good.
It isn't possible to make more tail options due to the lack of the source code. But it is possible to make more tails and have members replace the original ones...pretty Much the same thing that's been goingg on for years, haha

As mentioned by Morqque, adding official tail options and changing names is impossible with the lack of the game's source code. Of course, it can simply be added on as a mod like your everyday mod used, but doing this would definitely require permission to allow 200+ members to have it off the bat, without needing to download it themselves.
Nevertheless, it is a nice idea, though people also use the thick tail option.

Thank you for the replies guys.

Although,  I wasn't talking about the thick tail being replaced, but the "Tailess" mod which is a lynx tail with a different name. If possible, that last tail could be used for something else (this idea or similar), instead of having two same tails with a different name

Bumping this~

There are two exactly the same feline tail options, the Lynx tail and Tailess. There is no difference between them, so with that in mind, I think it shouldn't be an issue to replace the 'Tailess' with what is mentioned in the thread, as it was done before.
I'm curious to see what more people think of this idea. ^^

Thank ye for the bump!

Personally, I'd rather have the tailess tail actually be no tail, or change it to something like this. Although, I'd rather it be puffier like Arandomperson said:

I think reusing the canine tail would be weird, and there are certainly going to be people out there willing to make a brand new floofy tail for the official game. At least, I hope.

I'd be up to replace the tailess tail with just about any tail, honestly, but this idea has been my favorite tail I've seen for this situation.
