Animal Variety Coats

Description
1.6 note: For the time being, bears and capybaras have been removed. I have not found a way to make the swimming graphics accept the alternate colours. If I do manage in the future I will add them back in. Odyssey animals will slowly be added, but I got extremely frustrated over the capy issue (ngl I'm kinda heartbroken because I adore those little nuggets).

Ever wondered if animals really should all have the same shades?
I sure did, so I utilized the assembly from Animal Collab Project to give vanilla animals a bit of variation. The assembly was created by thirite and has been updated by Xen.
Some of you may have noticed a collaborator showing up in the sidebar. Azrael has kindly contributed many lovely variations and we're working on even more. ^^

Note that this will conflict with any mod that also adds variant textures or fully overrides the textures!

Currently included are:
Alpaca
Boomalope
Boomrat
Capybara
Caribou
Cat
Chinchilla
Cougar
Dromedary
Grizzly
Hare
Husky
Iguana
Labrador Retriever
Megascarab
Megaspider
Muffalo
Pig
Rat
Rhino
Spelopede
Squirrel
Thrumbo
Timberwolf
Warg
Wild Boar


Red Fox Patch by Alleyballey can be found here.

FAQs:

Can I add this to my current save? - It should be fine to add this mid-game, but please always make a backup of your save. Only newly spawned animals will be affected, though!

Will this change the colour of the leather/wool/clothes? - No, leather has a set RGB value. One species can only have one type of leather.

Could you add [animal]? - I will consider it for sure. Pure colour changes are fairly easy but I'll have to talk to my artist friends about custom patterns.

What animals do you have planned? - Ideally, all vanilla animals that I can do.

I have suggestions for colours/patterns or can help with textures! - Shoot me a message on discord @ cucumpear#4683 (but be aware that I'm quite picky!)

Will you make a patch for [mod]? - No. As of 1.1 I'm using the system used for vanilla animals. if a modder wants their animals to have variations they can easily do this themselves

I need a local install! - Can't help you there, I have been informed that steam frowns upon linking to those.

The swimming texture change hates me, I have an idea how to fix it but I hope y'all can live with the random darker water capys for a bit until I figure out how to make the game actually keep the colour. Also need to check the bears. :steamfacepalm:

Ok, definitely caused by this mod. It looks like the alternate colours don't just apply to the swimming texture. I'll see if I can find a way to do it (and am hoping maybe there's an animal with variants in Odyssey I can loot at, because I'm not looking forward to trying to read the actual game code).

That's entirely possible, I'll take a look asap. Than you for letting me know!

Capybaras are changing colour when swimming, and i think it's to do with this mod. I've got a couple of other mods loaded so I'm not sure, but it would make sense that swimming uses a different texture.

@Farivia, there's the CHicken Variety mod by MG_Atwood. You could be thinking of that mod.

I could have sworn that some of these were available in-game by default...I remember having a Warg that was dark in color that I named Shadow, and got really confused when I started a new Warg breeding program for the first time recently and never encountered another one...

I could never get chicken to work correctly, so that must have been another mod. ^^
