Black and White 2 - Wolf Creature Model fix
-------------------------------------------

            VERSION  1.1


      The retail creature model as delivered by Lionhead included a mistake involving
the morphs and model applied to the Wolf creature. The two visible consequences
are the lack of an 'adult' base morph as the creature ages and severe visual
artifacts on the face as the creature nears extreme edges of morphs (Thin , Strong,
Fat, ...)

      This is an attempt at a fix to the Wolf model and hair files. Realize that without
access to the original Lionhead models and tools, the creation of this fix required
using "close approximations" of data. I think it works well, but you may see some
visual artifacts like seams or hair slightly off the model.

      The CSK file is much smaller than the original. There appears to be large
sections of unused data in this file. When using the model generation scripts I have,
the parts of the unused data that are difficult to recreate are ignored.

      If you have major problems with the results of using this, let me know. Go to the
kayssplace B&W2 modding forums and make a post.





Instructions:
-------------

      Four files should be included:
Readme.txt
Readme.rtf
bwolf.cha
bwolf.csk

      Normally, the game reads much of the data from the packed "Everything.stuff" file,
but when the appropriately named files are placed in correct locations, these files are
read instead.
      Make sure the game is not running. Place the "bwolf.cha" and "bwolf.csk" files into
the following folder in the game's folder structure:
[  \Data\ctr  ]

      If these files already exist, you have either installed another mod that alters some
aspect of the Wolf's model, or you have used the Lionhead modding tools to unpacked
the Everything.stuff file into the game directory. Make a backup of the files before
overwriting.





Un-installation:
----------------


      To un-install this modification, simply delete the the two files from [  /Data/ctr  ]
or replace the original version of these files.



Changelog:
----------

v1.1:
- Fixed repeatable crashes by adding in edge definition sections. Skin effects
  like bruising require these.
