Fem Au Ra Pube Scales Reborn

Pubic scale patches for femra.

Changes in 1.1.0
Changelog v1.0.1: /Every/ single texture in the mod was 6px~ to the left of center. I'm not sure how I missed that, but if I ignored it once it was pointed out I think I would actually just wither away and die. Creator kit has been updated accordingly on XMA. 

My biggest project ever! Utilizing the Bibopube material built into Bibo+, this mod allows Au Ra to have scales instead of pubic hair!
Based on my Gen 2 mod from years and years ago, this monument to my own hubris has been assembled from the ground up, and tested on most Bibo+ bodies! Contains three different scale shapes, with several colors each! XMA upload also has raw textures and a readme for modmakers interested in making their own!

TO USE:
Simply import the modpack into Penumbra, and set it to a higher priority than your preferred body mod! I wanted this to be plug-and-play, with minimal fuss!
Example:
0. Bibo+

  1. Tre/YAB/Rue/Etc. (Probably any bibo-based, pube-supported body)
  2. Pube Scales Reborn

Current colors:
Vanilla (For both Raen and Xaela)
Black/White
'Old Vanilla' (Raen) (Many Vanilla+ scale mods for raen utilize a slightly different color (Based on Pre-DT) than DT's base. This is meant to pair with those!)

Current shapes:

  • 'The Asa Patch' - named after a scale modder from years past who inspired this project, I've styled this tuft after the one they made in the Gen 1 'Moar Scales' mod, and named it after them! Thank you for continuing to inspire me, years later!

  • 'The Khatun' - An original style, this bushlike patch of scales is meant to emulate the wild, untamed world of life on the Steppe, and allude to the Raen's ancestry in northern Othard!

  • 'The Dragon' - Inspired by some of the original concept art for Au Ra and the expansion that introduced them, this scale patch is meant to evoke the image of a draconic visage!

Known issues/limitations:

  • Currently does not play very nice with any cock-wielding bodies, it /works/, but the textures are soooo squished. I'll try and make a few styles designed to be used with this equipment!
  • Low lighting conditions can make The Dragon and The Asa Patch look a little flat due to the texture downscaling. I'm still brainstorming a way to make these /pop/ more.
  • Untested on Gen 3 bodies. I simply do not like Gen 3's texture layout and will continue to stubbornly refuse to mess with them. Feel free to port it or adjust it yourself if you'd like!
  • Given it's my first time working with an advanced modpack to this extent, there may be silliness in the mod's internal files and redirections. I apologize if you're a more skilled modder and look under the hood and I missed something obvious - I'm self-taught! Feel free to offer constructive feedback or advice if you see something!

Credits:

  • Illyriana & Tsar for Bibo+
  • Korbo (and all their contributors) for BPF, which I think PROMPTED bibopube's creation?
  • Westlaketea for the original B/W scales (If this credit is wrong, please let me know, the B/W scales origin is hard to pin down!)
  • Asa for Gen 1 'Moar Scales' for inspiring my work to this day!
  • Sever for making me realize DT's vanilla Raen scales don't match Pre-DT colors.
  • Whatever higher order being gave me that dream that told me I could use Bibopube for this. (Seriously, it was a dream.)
