About this mod

This is a mesh replacer for the cluster of Slaughterfish eggs and the harvested ingredient to make it more look a bit more like an actual fish egg.

Hi everyone!

I needed a day off from ironing out the kinks in Slightly Better Rock Cairns, and so I put this small mod together. It adjusts Slaughterfish eggs to look a bit more like actual fish eggs and less like a cluster of (sort of) alien chicken eggs. From their appearance it looks like Slaughterfish may have been based on Garfish (possibly Alligator Gar). Garfish lay thousands of eggs a year. Their eggs, like most fish eggs, are very small and round. This mod makes Slaughterfish eggs rounder and increases the number of eggs in the clusters. It also adjusts the eggs height so they'll generally be half buried in the silt of lakes or the pebbles at the shoreline. I didn't make them as small as actual fish eggs as they'd be impossible to find. If you'd like me to attempt a version with some more, and smaller, eggs, let me know.

This mod is simply a mesh replacer and so can be installed or uninstalled at any point without any ill effects for your save. It's also compatible with any mod that changes the Slaughterfish egg textures so long as they don't change the mesh too. It has no requirements other than the base game.

In update 1.1. (added as an optional file) I've changed the shape of the egg ingredient and added a semi-transparent layer around it to suggest fluid around the growing fish inside. If you fancy trying this out (it's only a few kb larger than the original) install if after the main mod and overwrite when asked.

Thanks for checking out the mod!
