Critter variants for use within Skyrim. A re-texturing of various creatures for use within Skyrim by modders. I will be using these in a mod developing but if others wish to co-op them into their mods have at it.
Added: 30 Jan 2012 .. A group of meshes and textures to provide alternate versions of the Falmer. Available as a resource for those that would like to use, will be adding in later for my own mod but heck feel free to use if want.
Added 9 Feb 2012 .. some Draugr variants done in a stone like texture that includes armor variants also for the males at this point. This includes the entire suite of Draugr and same base variants for those that want to experiment.
Added 12 Feb 2012 .. 3 medium and 3 giant stonecrabs implemented with esp, meshes, and textures into the game. They are larger then normal mudcrabs and more aggressive. In general they will be found in same locations as mudcrabs but since a hardier breed you may find them in strange locales. Enjoy and feel free to use as a resource if you want. If you look into the esp you will note that there are other nakedskins besides what implemented will be coming in future adds. Takes a while for them to show based on your clean up/reccle settings for the game.
18 Feb 2012: Changed the texture for the Draugr variants in the update .. gives a tad more detail and some more bone structure.
20 Feb 2012: Re-upload for the Stonecrabs with some minor tweaks and changes to get all the LVLN working .. wear good armor.
28 Feb 2012: Added 3 variants of spiders into the world each comes in 2 sizes for 6 different multi legged hunters.
11Mar 2012: In addition to the 20/28 Feb variants have now incorporated Spriggans (4 normal and 4 Mothers) and 6 Chaurus (normal and Reapers) into the esp.
19 Apr 2012: Added 5 variants for Bears that can be incorporated into mods as adds to the existing Bears in the game. If someone wants a different look just ask .. same applies to other creatures have done.
23 April 2012: Added 15 variants for Giants. Additionally added 3 different looking weapons that can be used by the giants if desired plus a different looking toe if want to enhance it's ability over the normal toe in the game.
4 May 2012: Added mesh and textures for multiple dwarven sphere, spider, and steam centurion variants. See posted images for what is available. If other looks are desired please ask and give some info on what is wanted.
6 May 2012: Added another variant for Falmer, this one has a blue scaled look suitable for water creature if desired. Only meshes and textures.

The 2nd is a variant with scaled snake skin in an orange black look. The 3rd is one with interleaved iron slats covering the variant. These 3 have female variants also. The last is a totally tattooed body that is male only .. I use it as the forge master or a magic variant at the top of the tree for the Stone Draugr Race.

---Installation:---
-------------------
Manual Installation:
--------------------
Modders resource you will need to integrate into your mod as appropriate.
Stonecrab and spider optional resource includes esp to add creatures into the game if so desired.
---Uninstall:---
---------------------
Manual Uninstall:
Stonecrab and Spiders = remove esp
----------------------
Upgrade:
--------
Will add more creature variants overtime, and will also provide further esps and/or update stonecrab/spider in the future to integrate into the leveled lists.
Known issues and bugs:
----------------------
A resource .. but who knows if find a problem let me know and I will fix.
Stonecrab portion of the esp will conflict with other mods that mod the mudcrab LVLN (PISE does), so need to place below these mods (or make a BASH patch) if want the stonecrab to show up with mudcrabs. There are separate 'M' markers for both the stonecrab and spiders that should not be impacted.
Incompatibilities:
------------------
Any mod that uses mudcrab LVLN, see above.
