Radiant Dog Mod : White Fang

Description

I know … I KNOW ! There are already tons of dog mods. I'm just putting mine make me a room ! So what am i bringing ? A hard custom start with a white dog, already seen, again … i know, but this time *in my humble opinion* with better worked texture than what i saw [See content for details]. Above all this dog belong to a unique distinct race with stronger stats. Reason of this mod creation was me feeling my doggo(s) and even mountain doggos to be kind of weak in fights even well trained. I wanted one stronger fellow like a real Caucasian Ovcharka ! Not as strong as gorillos but around any average skilled recruit. So this new race will be called "White fang" in tribute for that incredible novel story that inspired me.

Here are what his specs looks like : old value (previously assimilated) => new value (closest competitor)
  • Animal Strength : 35 (Bonedog) => 55 (Boneyardwolf = 50)
  • Combat stats : 20 (Bonedog/Mountain) => 35 (Boneyardwolf = 40)
  • Combat move speed mult : 0,7 (Bonedog/Mountain) => 0,8
  • Vision Range mult : 1 (Bonedog/Mountain) => 1,20

  • Speed max skill : 90 (Bonedog/Mountain) => 150 (beak things =170 / Hives family = 140)
  • Speed min skill : 70 (Bonedog/Mountain) => 80 (Hives family)
  • Walk speed : 15 (Bonedog/Mountain) => 20 (Boneyardwolf 17)
  • Turn rate : 55 (Bonedog/Mountain) => 70 (Boneyardwolf = 66 / Goat = 77)

  • Heal rate : 1,5 (Bonedog/Mountain) => 1,8
  • Max blood : 250 (Bonedog/Mountain) => 350 (Boneyardwolf = 300)

  • Scale max : 0,57 (Around a large dog in real life, no giant fantasy here)

These are not balance-breaking buffs as you see, but your dog should be little stronger or around Boneyardwolf efficiency and quite a fast boy for running/scouting but still not as good as hives. Again, keep in mind it's a full aged doggy we talking about, so you will have to train it !

The start

You start in "The hub" city, because i find this starting location more interresting than the desert. I wrote a particular short story description for that start, for immersion purpose. I hope you will enjoy reading it even if i am not native english speaker. Because of that story, your start will be hard : you are wounded, starving and just with your dog, its 2 kind of bags and a fair condition naginatakatana.

Dog Gear

As for Bags, you now receive two of them at the start of the game, one on your dog, the other in your character inventory. Both are only usable by White Fang. One is the a scarf coming from the Dog Scarf mod, and the other is an invisible bag (i don't like the pack on the back mods, it's realistic okay but kinda ruins the look of the dog imo). You just choose to use one and discard or keep the other, they both have the same stats. Scarf color can be changed (follow screenshot instruction steps)

*** All credits for the dog scarf asset goes to MARH, His idea is fantastic and never i would have thought to do that. His mod makes me happy, helping also mine being better, don't hesitate to cheer/upvote/subscribe his mods ! Here ***

Optional Heads and body

By default, you will have the "normal" head with the white fur you can see in screenshots. If you want the red or black stripe thing on its head or the pitch black fur, you have to replace one file in my mod folder. Look at the screenshots for clear instructions, it's simple and can't be done at any time of your playthrough allowing you to change it depending of your mood.

I personnally play with the red stripes one, it has somekind of evangelion touch lol but not everyone would like it. That's why you have the possibility to do that.



You can find all my mods by searching "Radiant" in steam workshop, nexus, or civfanatics, which is a recurrent word in all my mod's tittles.

Even if they represent hundreds of working hours, I'm sharing my mods for free like most of mod creators. But deep down I'm really hoping you to do that little extra thing that would help me a lot : joining any of my pages (patreon, facebook, instagram). Just that really! Don't feel obliged to give something, with Patreon there is indeed a free option that grants you basic news/content and it will only take few seconds of your time. That being said I'm an artist irl and I sometimes struggle to put my personal projects on the saddle. By giving a little something or joining my ranks you can trigger a course of actions/reactions that might end up gathering more people around, thus helping me building the motivation and means to create more stuff to appreciate.

@Namuamitabul This is not a "problem" it's perfectly intended. Explanation : Let it some time to grow, i edited a special size curve for it. The dog reaches the size of a big real life dog in the end (more realistic?) when I made this mod I was tired some vanilla dog were giving us dog/wolf large sized it become less credible (looks somewhat odd when it reach the size of a horse compared to your chars) + the texture in that cases looks strechted and bad quality. Now IMO looks better when it's limited to a realistic big dog. And yes when it's a puppy (age 0-15) it's really a little dog. But it's okay again don't worry it grows pretty well if you give it the time it's a long game : dog is weak at first you need to protect it to have the perfect guard later on.

your mod is awesome but I think there is little problem, White Fang is too small compared to normal bone dog..

Recently Discovered your Radiant Mods, you are easily the #1 texture modder for Kenshi, Sorry the toxic community got to you

@Reykander Like you said if that's with proper credit then there is no problem, enjoy!

Hello, I am developing a mod with some custom characters and I was planning to use the textures from your mod for 2 of my custom bonedogs and before doing so I had to ask for permissions, is it ok if I add them? giving proper credit ofc

@Shiroho Thanks i think i got it down! thank you for the help.

@Wolf when you are done, save and it should now be working (only with a new game, since the game won't alter those values with old save, the animal needs a fresh start to gain the new values).

@Wolf : further precisions = inside the mod creator tool, the button is called "Changes". Hit that and it ll show u the edited files, Then open the last one called "White Fang / Animal_Charact" go in "life" section and see the scale max / scale min which correspond to the scale when adult and baby. Be careful, it scales hard, 1.0 is really big. My adult scale is at 0.5

@Wolf basically you have to find and copy my mod folder (a weird name with lot of number) into Steam\steamapps\common\Kenshi\mods. Then rename that folder name with the same name as the .mod file inside (weird but yes ! mandatory). Then open the mod creator tool and load it, in the task bar look for what the mod modifies, open the assets and look for something called size.
