Umbrellord's HD Mutant Models (Update 3 - 15/02/22)  

This mod provides upscaled models for "vanilla" mutants with geometry edits and other fixes. (See pictures below for examples). It does not provide anything like upscaled textures etc. so the effects in game may only appear subtle.

I have tested this on a modded and vanilla copy of anomaly and all appears to be working as desired. I now require useful feedback and suggestions from the community.

Current list of mutants included in this mod:

• Burers
• Bloodsuckers
• Chimera
• Controllers
• Dogs
• Flesh's
• Boars
• Pseudo/Psydogs
• Pseudogiants
• Rats (why not)
• Snorks
• Tushkanos
• Karlik
• Zombies (standard/vanilla models)
• Cats (normal - still WIP)
• Fracture
• Psysuckers

List of mutants currently WIP and due to be released with future updates

• Cat's (remaining models)
• Flesh with ears (Flesh_3 - Ballache. May or may not include)

Any other mutants will not be touched either due to them being unused assets or they don't really need work (i.e. lurker). The plans for this mod may change depending on what anomaly 1.6 brings to the table.

• UV edits have already started and will hopefully cover all of the mutants with issues in the near future
• Skeletal edits/fixes
• May add upscaled 4K textures (gigapixel) as an optional file if there is enough demand for it.
• May add the other unused mutant models (spawned through mods) if there is enough demand for it.

• Simply unzip and move the db folder into your anomaly root directory

OR

• Copy the HDMutants.db0 into your db/mods folder.

OR

• Use your favourite mod loader.

• Should be compatible with everything that doesn't edit mutant meshes.
• No new game required.
• Remove after manual install: just delete the HDMutants.db0 from your db/mods folder. There will be no residual issues.
• Object detail is recommended at 1.5 for the full enhancement effect.
• Increases poly count x4 in most cases so not recommended for potato's. (This is not as taxing as HD NPC models however).

I recommend checking out Blackgrowl's fixed vanilla models & textures as a great accompaniment to this mod!

Special thanks to everyone at the testudo cohort: you know who you are!
