Accurate Cat Graphics

Description
This mod edits cat graphics so their eye color and fur color for each part of their body is accurate to their description, leading to a few hundred thousand different possible variations.


This is part of an expanding series of expanded animal graphic mods. If you would like to see the other mods in this series:
Accurate Bovine Graphics here!
Accurate Dog Graphics here!
Accurate Wool Graphics here!
Accurate Equine Graphics here!
Accurate Ungulate Graphics here!
Accurate Rodent Graphics here!

If you would like to use all these mods at the same time, you can also use the compilation of all of them here!

KNOWN ISSUES


The SDL2 update for Dwarf Fortress seems to have introduced some weird bugs in regards to layered creatures (animals specifically, not entities). Effects of this include:

  • Any animal child with layered graphics, upon growing up, will not have it's sprite updated until the save file is reloaded.

  • Animated sprites for the creature will not display, instead just using the normal sprite.
These bugs can be seen in vanilla with any wagon pullers, and unfortunately extend to animals in this mod series. Nothing that can be done except hope the bug is fixed in the game itself.


Credit to ryno for the lovely sprites, and mcnuggy for the coding.

Nifty, thanks!

@BoogieMan there are instructions for doing so on the 'Accurate Domestic Animal Graphics Compilation' page, under the 'Compatibility Information' section. The same can be done here! Link to mod in question: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3072627813

Any way for this to be made to work with Naut's Equipment Graphics & New Items? It necessitates disabling vanilla_creatures_graphics which turns this mod orange on the list, which then disables world generation.

The most important mod in the whole DF Workshop.

I'm not generally someone that uses mods in games, but this here is a good example of a mod I'd use, given it is purely cosmetic and adds more accuracy to what the game is trying to convey, given all the cats in vanilla don't visually match their descriptions.

@Darkweave it is unfortunately a bug introduced in the 5.10 update, any creatures (not entities) with layered graphics (wagon pullers, cats from this mod, ect) wont have their adult/animated graphics updated/displayed correctly. All I can do is hope it is fixed soon.

My kitten retained the kitten sprite on turning into a cat. Seemed fine after a reload.

Does anyone know how frequently the devs integrate mods into the vanilla code?

I've got to say. This brings me a lot of smiles.

Thank you, OP. ***Thank you.***
