River's Tribal Shoes

Description
Adds three pairs of neolithic-tech shoes. Originally a small expansion on the Vanilla Apparel Expanded mod, this mod can now stand alone.

I love VE's addition of shoes, but it seemed unfair to me that neolithic-tech shoes didn't exist in-game, even though shoes, of course, were invented across basically every culture thousands of years ago. This mod adds simple wooden sandals, leather moccasins loosely inspired by North American plains tribe Indians, and mukluks vaguely inspired by Inuit/Eskimo peoples.


Sandals
They don't offer much in the way of armor, but they're vegan-friendly and they protect your pawns from the heat.

Moccasins
They take longer to craft than VE's boots, but they're decent at protection.

Mukluks
They take a long time and a lot of material to make, but these cold-weather specialized leather boots will keep your pawns' feet nice and toasty!



All three give pawns a small speed boost.




Now updated to 1.6! Please let me know if you have any update-related issues!


Frequently asked questions:

Q: Does it work with Combat Extended?
A: It should.

Q: Shoes for kids when???
A: Probably never. If Vanilla Expanded adds shoes for kids to their apparel mods I may follow suit but it is not currently on my to-do list. Thank you, however, for your enthusiasm. :)

Thanks
  • to the majestic Magenta_Ivy for the fantastic art!
  • to Soul for the Combat Extended Patch!
  • to Rick for help with compatibility!

Thanks for answer, tho I'm alredy modding other game, don't want to sink in other rabbit hole here to upset my "fans" there. Just took a brake for a litle Rimwording.

@ Snorri I'm glad you're enjoying the mod! :) I have entertained the idea of adding leather as an option for the sandals in the past, but for reasons related to the heat multipliers of wood vs leather, it wasn't feasible to have both as options. And the whole reason I got into modding to make this mod is I wanted shoes that WEREN'T made of leather for my vegan colonists who got angry every time they put on any shoes. If you really want leather sandals, it wouldn't be too hard to pick up enough modding knowledge to add some into your game, if you just reuse the art from this one.

Yo, thanks for the mod, my dessert classical run woud be lesser without your sandals. Can you make sandals require leather insted of cloth? Becouse leather is much easier to get in early game stages, it's more compatible with mods such like medieval overhaul that add a lot of different textiles, and well, cloth is a litter tricker to get there, and real life sandals in pre modern times were ofthen made from leather.

I just uploaded the 1.6 update! Thanks for dealing with my procrastination. ;)

To all the requests for children's shoes, I'll go into a little more detail here. As stated in the description, I originally made this as something of an expansion of Vanilla Expanded's Apparel mod, as they added industrial tech shoes and gloves but nothing tribal. The VE team hasn't added kids' shoes to their mods and adding them to this one would make for games where there were tribal tech shoes for kids but not industrial tech shoes for kids. That would bother me.

But more importantly, I did not make the art for this mod and kid's shoes would require new art. If you are good with vector drawing and you just really want your RimKids to wear cute little moccasins, message me and maybe we can talk adding them in.
