Biters! - Lovecraftian Horror inspired reskin

Description
Please note: This is just a texture mod and they do NOT act like the sleepers from GTFO. The closest thing you can get is giving them terrible senses and sprinting in a sandbox game. I'm not a coder and don't know how to make anything like that, I was just inspired by games like GTFO for the aesthetic of the biters ;)

Huge thanks to Pr1vate Lime for featuring my mod in his videos:

After making my 28 days later texture mod, I wanted to create some more. Mostly an experiment, I made this mod with the inspiration and ideas from Lovecraftian horror and body horror - for your custom gamemodes, or even just a change of scenery - what if there were not zombies, but merely the husks of humanity controlled by some domineering, malevolent force..?

Now you can get one step closer to that grim reality, be it the corrupting influence of C'thulhu, some alien parasite or whatever you want to pretend they are, I proudly introduce you to the 'BITERS' as I call them. This is just another retexture mod, but you could perhaps use them for any of your challenge modes or presets - why not see how they look in an eternal night game? Even let them run after you?

It all starts with the head splitting open into a maw with rows of sharp, pointy teeth to enable their award-winning smiles! Just kidding. They rip your face off, then your face grows teeth.

Enjoy, if you wanna use it.

Works well with this sound mod in my opinion, send them your likes!

Also recommended to use with this mod, as zeds can look a bit weird with beards and hair:

combining this with the occult zombies mod gets you the perfect eldritch horror apocolypse

There's also the problem that I don't even know what the new file structure it wants is for b42 and I haven't been interested in figuring it out atp

I'll get around to updating these when I personally want to play the game again - but knowing TIS how long that will take is anyone's guess

I have a D:Drive myself so my file locations are a bit different. Yours should align better with the file locations in this mod's method https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2866460287&searchtext=cursor

@pheevos17, I do understand where the mod creator is coming from, there is a whole hassle in porting mods from B41 to B42.
But since this is a texture mod, you can simply subscribe to this mod, go to steamapps\workshop\content\108600\2347209800\mods\bitersreskinmod\media\textures\Body
then copy the textures over and paste them in
steamapps\common\ProjectZomboid\media\textures\Body.

it works for build 41 - i have little interest in build 42 at present without any multiplayer capability or stability

so, is this mod currently not working? i was really hoping to use it!

I'd like to update all my mods for 42 but I don't even know why they aren't working, what would be needed to fix them, and I personally have little interest in what 42 is offering right now as a player, so I don't have an ETA
