Description from the original mod:
Description from the original mod:
A fox human hybrid that is ready to play in the realm of Skyrim. Perfect for a stealth player. More geared towards thieves.
Enjoy the ability of playing in the shadows as a master assassin, designed to be compatible with default Skyrim.
They used to live underground till something took over and now they are forced to flee to the outside world of cold and winds.
Many, many thanks to the original author Charismoon for permission to use the assets and port it over to SSE!
Features!
- The original racial abilities!
- The original tail.
- Animated ears.
- A beast-like feet option.
- An option for HDT enabled fluffy tails.
- And more, coming soon! (See the to do lists below).
Technical information for those wondering on the changes:
What started off as an attempt at porting the original mod over to SSE, over the course of a few weeks spiraled into a complete rebuild of the On the Oldrim page, I noticed multiple people saying they were crashing upon selecting it as a race. I threw it into my game and had the same problem.
I begun to investigate why. After process of elimination, and toying with things, I ruled out the one script being used, the meshes, and the mod plugin itself.
This left me with just one possibility, the tri morph files associated with the head. I had (and still have) no idea how to update those,
so I decided to rebuild the mod from scratch. Starting with a base Nord and poking at other mods to see how they did things, over the course of a week or two, this mod began to take shape. By the time I finished the base, I was happy with it and decided to release the first version here.
Then, over the past few months I've been using the original mod's textures as a base and remaking/updating them with SSE based skins.
While I have not experimented with adding the MaTera's original ears, I noticed that the existing ears pin down whilst in combat, which I thought looked pretty neat, so I kept it.
To do soon (As in, these are for sure happening, but I do not know exactly when they will happen. In no particular order):
- Add the racial traits from the Battle and Magic Matera as addon options.
- Add replacers for companions such as Vilja, Inigo and Sofia.
- Add original(ish) male body textures.
- Add / remake the Battle Matera textures.
- Modify the head textures to remove the human ears, as that's actually in the texture, not the model.
- Tidy this page up and make it look nicer.
- Fix anything I messed up.
To do maybe (If I can get them to work. No promises on these items.):
- Add the HDT Matera tail from Oldrim as an option.
- Add more ears.. Including the original and Calyps animal ears.
- Add more ear colours, corresponding with the tail colours (The tail texture is...complicated).
- Add more ear colours, corresponding with the tail colours (The tail texture is...complicated).
- Fix the gap on the male head to body if it is in fact there. (see Known Issues)
Known issues:
- There appears to be an overlap between the male head and body...This may get fixed.
- The alternate / beast-like feet option, the texture looks rather strange. I'll have to investigate and possibly give them their own texture.
