The mod will work in 1.6 since it's basic XML and only requires its parent mod Animal Gear to be updated.

New mod called Animal Apparel: Framework is out btw - https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3513825850

The universal armor shows up then disappears from crafting benchs, I believe it is bugging out or creating its own error. If there a work around I would like to know. I can just make them with admin mode and seen it 4 times on bench but gone now. I also have tried turning the vanilla framework both true and false.

can you add support for aotc and tpoc

ok

Yea it should.

does this mod work with Bigger Better Stronger Alpha Animals?

You need the Animal Equipment mod for it.

Also cant find the universal armor anywhere

Hello again,
While using Biomes! Prehistoric, I noticed some dinosaur parts were absolutely not protected. I haven't verified for them all, but I saw for the ones I tamed :

- Ankylo tail and beak : "BMT_TailWeapon" (in tors) and "BMT_DinoBeak" (in head)
- General front claws : "BMT_FrontClaw" (in hands)
- General rear claws : "BMT_RearClaw" and "BMT_RearSickleClaw" (in feet)

Shoulders, arms, hands and feet were not protected neither.
For the specific BMT parts, I added the lines in your mod and it works. BUT it works only if I add the vanilla missing parts in the Animal Equipment mod. I'm a total noob at modding, so I don't know how to achieve this result just modifying your mod.

With this homemade fix, they now are fully protected. I tried on numerous species, especially those worth equipping an armor with.

Thank you again for your mod, I tried in the past to make such a fix, almost succeeded but for god's sake couldn't figure how to fix the special BMT parts.

THANK GODDAMN YOU !
You're the king, I can finally protect my beloved Yutyranus and send him chomping enemies without fearing losing him before he can reach his target !

Can't find the universal animal armor. Anyone with this problem?

Fair enough. Thank you.

You have to use universal apparel for most animals, only the ones that have specific armor textures made for them can use the special armors.

I was unable to get the rottweiler from VAE to wear the dog armor like I can with vanilla dogs.

That mod doesn't require patching, same as some other mods.

Does this mod patch Vanilla Animals Expanded -core?

Dylan has now updated Animal Gear to 1.5

Can someone update the tag so I don't get error notices then? That should be a pretty simple ask

For 1.5 both the Animal Gear and Equipment mod have to be updated for the animals to be able to wear the universal gear, I've just updated my mod in advance as it only contains the necessary patches for things to work.

Thanks for the update for this. Can anyone confirm they have this working in 1.5 somehow? And with what mods? I have Animal Gear, Animal Equipment and this mod but animals seem unwilling to equip anything.

@ozfresh The Animal Equipment mod is purely xml, the 1.4 version already works in 1.5 with just a version tag update.

Animal equipment mod is not updated, so this mod is practically unusable. :(

Yes.

1.5?

The patches that make the vanilla animals work with Animal Gear and therefore work with Animal Equipment are inside the former mod, Animal Equipment just adds the items so it needs this/my mod for the unique animals to be able to wear the apparel.

To be clear, this works with Owlchemist's Animal Equipment mod? Cuz rimpy marks this as needing the older Animal Gear mod

Would it be possible to patch biomes! prehistoric, too?

ok, thanks

Yes.

Is this needed with CE?

Dragons Descent works with Animal Equipment out of the box without the need for this mod.

Does this work with Dragon's Descent?

Yea that bit of the description is not completely accurate...

Maybe I was mistaken by the first sentence "...why my Raptor Shrimps don't equip the armor..." - they actually do equip but it will not improve armor stats for them.

Oh, now I finally see, it is not about that some animals cannot equip things, but rather whether will armor actually work. Now I see the difference in sharp and blunt stats. But it has some strange side effects now aerofleet has some "head" which it did not have before and this "head" can be shot off and after that the animal is still alive but cannot see anything.

@Miso The patches inside `Animal Gear` mod are simply not sufficient enough for reasons I've explained in the mod description, I'd not make this mod if they covered all the necessary bases.

There are already similar patches in "animal gear" itself. I see some duplicate patches in this mod so I hope this is not a problem. Raptor Shrimps are working without this and also few other animals which I tested like some spiders and aerofleets. Does this add something which is not already in animal gear patches?

finally found this mod after looking for it a long time, good stuff

A weapon to surpass a weapon

Oh alright, thanks.

This mod only provides the necessary patches to make certain animals with custom body defs to be able to wear universal apparel from Animal Equipment.

Are these just patches? or is there custom graphics too?

I can confirm that animal equipment does work with Dragons Descent. Though i believe it is only the generic armor type, sadly there are no sprites for the armor, so no visual change, but the dragons do wear armor/shield belts.

Armored DRAGONS?! Ill have to test it.

There should be no need for patching Dragons Descent as it already has the necessary nodes in xml needed by Animal Gear.

weird request but
could you perhaps look into Dragon's Descent?
