About this mod

Replaces most of the Moonlight Tales Werewolf skins with textures from Bellyache (and adjusted by XilaMonstrr to be 4K)

Requirements
Permissions and credits
Donations
Quick message for folks about SPID: Yes using SPID to distribute these textures/meshes would be awesome, but it is out of the scope of these mods and I am not interested nor able to do such. I had a lot of people asking for this in all of my comment sections and it's getting a little frustrating.
Get permission from the original authors of these resources/use the open perm stuff, and you have my permission to use any of my edited assets for your projects, including SPID distributing.

Update: After some testing, this mod seems to work fine with the new Moonlight Tales Mini! If there are issues however, please let me know
specifically what's not showing up and I'll look into it.

Heya all! So uh, kind of simple mod here that took a fair amount of time to put together.

Basically this mod replaces many of the werewolf skins in Moonlight Tales with textures from Bellyache that were upscaled by XilaMonstrr to 4K and my own edited textures using said textures. I didn't cover them all however as some were just too unique for me to properly replicate well and I figured it was best to leave them as is.

Below I'll list what did get replaced though.
(Keep in mind eyes were not messed with, so those will remain the same.

Alpha
Beta
Omega
Natural
Albino
The three Timber variants (dark, light and white)
Lighter Black
Light Grey
Darker White
Husky and Golden Husky
Altmer
Bosmer
Breton
Dunmer
Imperial
Nord
Orc/Argonian
Redguard

There's also an optional package that gives all werewolves the softer and more white mouth texture that was included in Moonlight Tales, replacing the drab grey teeth/tongue. The only exception is the natural skin, for some reason it still uses the drab teeth.

INSTALLATION: I use Mod Manager 2 and that works just fine, Vortex might work too, otherwise manual is an option. Just copy the textures into your data folder.
Vortex users: If you have issues, lemme know and I'll repackage the mod to try to be Vortex friendly.
Make sure to load after Moonlight Tales for the replacers to take effect.
Moonlight Tales is of course required.

I did the best I could to replicate the feeling and options of each of the skins, but some I did take a few creative liberties. If you want to remove one of my replacers, just go into the textures folder and delete the ones you don't want. If there's popular request for it, I may pack up a version that doesn't have some of my more improvised and altered designs like Imperial and Dunmer.

Keep in mind, this was done simply because I prefer more fluffy werewolves and many of Moonlight's textures had a lot of skin showing. That's basically the only reason I did this, because otherwise I love Moonlight's current textures, they're beautiful, but so much skin showing bothered me.

And to get ahead of the theoretical crowd, no I couldn't add them as additional skins instead of replacing them. I don't know how and don't want to break anything. If someday I learn how though, I'd be happy to.

A note towards the mesh shown in the screenshots: That one is from here: https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/56730 that I privately ported to SE. I have asked permission from the author to let me post the port publicly though so if they get back to me with a yes, I'll do it.

The textures in this mod will work with any mesh replacer that supports vanilla styled textures + Moonlight Tales.

Thank you everyone for reading, enjoy the mod!
