Description:

This mod updates the look of goats, llamas, alpacas, and sheep, in addition to giving them layered graphic support for all of their wool colors!

In vanilla sheep only had 1 possible hair color and skin color, white and pink respectively, but in this mod they’ve been given the same 43 colors the other domestic animals have.

This is part of an expanding series of expanded animal graphic mods. If you would like to see the other mods in this series:

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.
  • If trying to spawn a ram in with arena mode, or with DFhack’s gui/sandbox, it’s icon will only display it’s horns. It’s icon works properly in all other menus, however.

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.
