Hello everyone! Got another new mod for y'all, one that has been in the works for a fair while now.
Mudcrabs are unironically one of my favorite creatures in Oblivion, and I've always wanted to polish them up some and make them more interesting, scary, and/or beautiful! And that's the goal with this mod.
Using an open-source photo of a real crab shell, I've made brand new crab shell textures with more details to breathe new life into these common creatures found in the game.
For Vanilla, I've provided three texture options. One is brand new, the other uses the old vanilla color style, and the third uses colors from the original mod of where I got the new mesh from! Hopefully this provides a range of choices for everyone.
For MOO, each crab got new meshes and textures, with unique shapes and more! No longer is every crab just a slightly different color of another crab, and maybe bigger. Some are now smooth with narrow legs, and others are big, spiky and strong looking.
Contains a few different options to tailor the crabs to your style of game! In hopes that they do not clash or stand out glaringly.
Includes: The choice between shiny meshes for a 'wet' look, or muted if it's too shiny. Also includes the option to remove the Morrowind style jaws/pinchers for people with phobias and the like.
And alternative shell style for the MOO land crab. Done as a request.
Each MOO crab texture was (loosely) inspired by IRL crabs. Including Coconut Crabs, Vampire Crabs, the King Crab, and more! Some are colorful, yes, but crabs in nature can also be very colorful! (I may make a muted alt version if people don't like this though. Feel free to politely request this in the comment section.)
Please keep in mind that the tree crab is inspired by the coconut crab, but with mesh editing limitations, I can't make it look as much like a coconut crab as I'd like to. But it's still the crab with the biggest legs and arms.
There are two main files. One for people who use MOO and one for people who don't. Only download one.
This mod contains no ESPs for the sake of capability, only new meshes and textures.
The textures are 2K for the crabs. I am not currently offering 4K as I am unsure if anyone really wants that? But if someone does I'll do it haha.
Anywho, I hope you all enjoy! And if you wanna hang out with me in Discord, my server is here: Coop's Nest Discord Server
