It's a game if genetic was a thing in this game, it would be a different thing ^^

@sonic: You can redownload the file for the new golden wildebeest.

@Anthracite: Ghost already did a hack like that for the RR tiger years ago, the thing is it only includes the base skins (3 orange + 1 white) and is incompatible with variants, and since it was made with an old version I think it still includes dirty/sick skins, it's still in tropical rainforest, etc. I'm not sure if it's still compatible with the latest tiger version.

Huh, I never knew that. I'd love genetics to be a thing in the game, but I'm well aware that would be a ridiculously complex task >_> <_<

@Anthracite:
It's not that complex, actually it's pretty easy once you know what you are doing but it's pretty tedious because you need a lot of ai files: one for each variant+age+gender combination. So if tigers have only Adult and Young lifestages (and two genders), you'd have 8 ai files for two variants, for 5 skins you'd have 20 files.
Then you have to tell the game that the Young_Male_Orange grows into Adult_Male_Orange and so on.
After that you just have to make all possible male-female variant combinations (male orange x female orange, male orange x female white, male orange x female golden etc.) and set the offspring percentages.

So yeah it's a lot of work to do that for animals that people will only place briefly to take a pic.

I´m one of this crazy people the animals are not only for the pics ingame but really live their lifes.

I did once this variant coding for IIRC the african lion V2 with the 10 variants. My young lions were born with one of the variants and grow in juvenile and adult with the same variant. But there were complicatec calculation for the babies born. Every variant had the same chance.

I´m a bit confused about the "many ai files". I remember I only added the coding lines for the different ages/mating/growing-things to the one existing ai file?
But I also remember I had to add different xml files for every variant (with both genders and the three lifestages). But no extra ai.

I meant xml files when I said "ai files" :P but it's a mix of xmls, beh and tsk.

I had no idea :| I assure you if this was a common thing I'd turn the entire game into a breeding project xD

Ring-tailed Lemur

A white variant based on Sapphire, from the BBC article "A Jewel in the Crowd". Also a regular gray variant with different face markings. (Note: the brown variant is included in the original file by AD, I didn't make it).

Musk Ox

Three subtle variants: reddish, brownish and blue-black, as the original had a single skin. Some differences on the back.

Grizzly Bear

Cream with dark legs, silvery, black with white collar & black with pale head/body. I didn't make a second blonde as the original already includes two lighter colored skins.

As always, you can download these already. Hope you like them!

Stunning work! I've been wanting Lemur variants for a long time! ;)

Also I think a darker beaver variant would be nice, along with some others.

I like the sapphire lemur variant, although, I don't think he had any black around his eyes.

I think that's a blinking bug, my skin doesn't have the black:
