Elin Ears and Tails Colour Mod - Reaper Edition!

Allows the ears and tails of Elin to match the hair colour you chose.


All you see here and more in the Basic package.




The Special package contains all of the above, but with some extra changes to the new Reaper styles seen below.

SPECIAL: Puffballs removed, and tail ribbon is changed to black, so it matches everything.
(Note that there is a tiny hole in her hair, but not too noticeable.)

SPECIAL: Headwings have a special texture that changes with your skintone.
Installation:

Drag & Drop the included 'Client' folder into your TERA installation directory. You'll know you're in the right place when you see another 'Client' folder too. It's okay to merge the folders, as this mod will not overwrite any of your files. No need to worry about backing up! It simply adds it to a new directory entirely, and your game will read it, leaving your original safe and unharmed. 

Uninstallation:

You only need to go to 'TERA\Client\S1Game\CookedPC\Art_Data\_Packages\CH\PC', and delete the Popori_F_Head.gpk should you want to uninstall.

Help! Head 01 and Face 01 are missing in character creation!
Don't panic, this is normal, and only happens in character creation. You won't experience it anywhere in game. This happens because head 01 and hair 01 use test textures in CC, but use their normal ones in game.

    2. Think we can get a version where the ear and tail color matches hair color?
      I don't know how much trouble making a variation is, but I'd love to be able to be a black haired bunny elin like on one of the spring loading screens.

    4. Hello! I really admire your work! May I make a request for a small mod that changes the bow on the lion Elin's tail to white and does nothing else? Thanks a heap! Keep up the great work!

    5. I too would like either full colour bunny ears (plus tail) and/or default white ears and tail please.

  3. Weren't the special eyes from the last mod going to be an option in this one as well?

  4. I hate to be a bother, but can you possibly separate the headwing one and the puffball removal? I actually rather like the red, but hate the puffballs.

  6. For some reason, hairstyle 1 is invisible and face 1 is blacked out after installing the mod. Is there any reasons or solutions for this?

  7. I just wanted to say that I come here so often and I'm lazy about bookmarking things but you're in my history. I just type "faggot" into my search bar and this is the first thing, always.

  8. Sooo, could you make one that doesn't make the bunny tail your hair color? I prefer the whole thing to change or not at all - it looks weird with the center just being the same color.

    1. You can use this here to open the default package and extract the normal bunny textures, then open the one you downloaded here and place the old ones over them. http://forum.teratoday.com/topic/70-tool-uthelper-13/

  9. hello ^-^ could you edit the insides of the ears for the elin with pigtails? it's light red and the old mod used to have the fluff turn white. it was so cute

    1. If you still have the old package handy, you can bring them back too using this tool! Just open the old package and export the old textures you like, then open the new and import them over top! http://forum.teratoday.com/topic/70-tool-uthelper-13/

  10. Hey I know this has already been said, but it would be greatly appreciated that the headwing recolour and the removal of the puffballs on the drill twintails be separate. I love the little puffballs, but absolutely hate and despise the colouring for the headwings. Thanks for making such awesome mods! Keep me updated. XD

  11. I've been trying to add the basic mod but it doesn't seem to work.. I have no idea what I'm doing wrong :( Could you (or anyone else) please try to explain it more clearly to me? where do I EXACTLY place the downloaded file etc. Maybe I've been missing out on something. Thanks a lot :)

    ReplyDelete
  12. Would it be possible to have a version with puffballs of the lion?

    ReplyDelete
  13. I like the special version, especially the skin-tone dragon ears. But I dislike having the small hole. Is it possible you could make a version that has the puffballs, but everything else the same in the special package? sorry if this is too much trouble. thanks.

    ReplyDelete
  14. I was trying to get back the special face mod you had in the old mod for elin face 9, but no matter what I do on UThelper I can't get it to work again. What particular files were changed?

    ReplyDelete
  15. Love that the wing-like ears change with the color of skin, but can you make a version that keeps the puffballs of the lion? i like em and i really dont like to see those lil holes in the elins heads :S

  16. I've noticed some severe alpha glitching with the fox elin down hairstyles (all 3) even in-game, and an issue with face 5 turning black when I walk near elins that have it.

    1. I have this problem too but with just the twin tail fox hair when down. The ram up-do will stay but ears and tail are gone.The down hair only shows up if I zoom out but disappears if I zoom back in; hair, ears and tail- which also do not match the hair color. Face5 is also glitched for me when I go near elins that have it, face turns black and eyes are discolored.

      Delete
    2. I also have this problem. It happens in-game and I want it fixed.

  17. Is there any way to match the haircolor and maybe color of the dragon wings on the short haired reaper to be the same color as the standard long tail(black/purple) ? I adore that color, and the standard dark purple hair color you can pick just doesn't match at all :x

  22. For me are all fox twin tails messed up, they are invisible and the faces of these turn black and no this is ingame, not in the character creator. O_o
    For my own with the same hair is it fine though, only all others are broken.

    1. Ok, after trying to make my own pack to fix this I found out that there seems to be a bug with the twin tail fox hair:
      When you wear it yourself everyone else' twin tail fox's are fine, but when you have a different hair then it suddenly uses a different base texture instead of the supplied one (still default light red instead of white for the haircolor overlay).
      On top of that is this ONLY affecting the normal hairdo, the upswept one uses the correct texture either way.

      No idea if that's fixable, maybe if the texture it's using instead is also replaced but no idea where it's getting that one from.

  23. My download keeps showing up as a windows media player file.. is that normal?

    ReplyDelete
  24. Where is the included ''Client'' folder... I can't find it in here and the download doesn't give it to me. Or am I just blind and can't see the downloading for it?

  25. The hair on the kitty hair (bound up with long bangs), needs to be lowered on the head a tiny bit. You can see between the scalp and underneath the hair. >.>

    This is happening in the game on other peoples characters, is it possible to fix this? Likely only the first face that's always been like that. Though the long haired fox ears disappears in-game as well.

  27. I'm actually seeing, in game, missing faces on some and completely missing heads on others. A very few elin seem to be unaffected and correctly have no ears and tail. I've tried just the no tail mod and no ears AND no tail mods and same thing. Great project but not feasible due to 90% of elin being faceless :( Any updates? Happens with both normal elin and reaper elin.

  28. head 01 and face 01 isn't only missing in character creation it is missing in the game too !! why? D: that actually looks really creepy .. is it going to be fixed? ;/

  29. heey i have a question... i just saw a YT video with an elin with black ears and a black tail...so i googled and found this page...

    do the game publisher allow that? can i get problems when i put these mods in the game? sorry if these are dumb questions but i never ever saw one player doing that and there is so less talking about this topic... i was just wondering if that actually works and if the other players are able to see this changes?

    1. TERA does not allowing any type of modding, or any type of retextures in-game. But they will not hunt you down for using a mod, unless it affects other players. So you are safe. The only problem encountered is, if you go into character creation, face 1 and hair 1 are missing and invisible. But its okay to select the hair style and face and save your character. Then re-log and everything should be fine. Also if you just checking out the character creator for elins, and exit; if you have a character that has hair 1 and face 1 in the character selection, it will become invisible and un-readable. And if played, it will stay like that. But no worries, just restart the tera client and it will come back fine.

      Including, no player will be able to see the changes due to only being on your client side. But you may see other elins with coloured tails and ears.

  31. Hi, I love your mod, especially the removal of the pom poms! I was wondering if you could make a version with the colour on the bunnytail was kept white like the ears? Could it also include the colour of the lion ears and tail as the original cream and the bow being the same colour as the hair?
