It was? it looks the same. in game. I also pulled its file out and if there were any differences I didn't notice them. I know the hanging spheres in underhang have fallen by Rivulet's time (can be seen in shaded) but they don't look any different on the background card.

how strange, perhaps Vali did not put out the update?

i don't see a difference at all? and the model really shouldn't be "subtly altered", he is quite literally partially collapsed in riv's campaign. i wouldnt be surprised if at least one of his legs had fallen and we just didn't see it. if you want, have a look at the geography changes between monk and rivulet (shaded citadel, the exterior & SS-RM) because theres some very drastic damage to his can, you can even see the enormous chunks of him in the background (and occasionally foreground) that have fallen into memory crypts. https://rain-world-map.github.io/map.html?slugcat=rivulet&region=♥♥♥♥♥ isn't just the 'lizard balls', it's also entire building-sized segments of his can that connected to vapour rods, which are only seen inside of his can & on the wall, likely meaning that the sides of his can are beginning to fall off. he has been eaten away at to a point that there are massive gaping openings in the underhang that act as death pits in the rot, and some parts of metropolis have collapsed into his internals. the allegedly altered model doesnt really reflect the extent of damage done to his can
sorry i like nerding about this game

One thing I can think off the top of my head is that the hanging spheres on the underside and the wall (orange lizard nests) those have fallen down by riv's time. They shouldn't be shown hanging from the structure.

It's also likely there are large holes in the sides since the rot is starting to spill out and fall into shaded citadel. The structure in the image of this mod isn't reminiscent of a structure that's literally crumbling from the rot. It seems like it's completely fine.

I'd suggest changing it to look less fine. To look more broken down. Like it could collapse any minute.
