Hello, everyone! I shared these mods on tumblr (and reddit) yesterday, but thought I should post them here for you all! Here I have sprite replacements for most of the barn and coop animals. I have simple previews of some of the walking and eating animations for you, as well as all of the full tilesheets. This is my first post here, so let me know if I've messed something up. There will be "download all" links at the end of this post! First up, barn animals: This spotted deer replaces the Brown Cow. DOWNLOAD Mirror This reindeer replaces the White Cow. DOWNLOAD Mirror This Verata goat replaces the Goat. DOWNLOAD Mirror This alpaca replaces the Sheep. DOWNLOAD Mirror For the pigs, you get a choice between two: This Kunekune replaces the Pig. DOWNLOAD (choose one pig!) Mirror OR This pink pig replaces the Pig. DOWNLOAD (choose one pig!) Mirror Now for coop animals: This Brahma replaces the Brown Chicken. DOWNLOAD Mirror This Partridge Silkie replaces the White Chicken. These chicken textures seem backwards, but it is because the duck chick uses the white chicken's chick sprite! DOWNLOAD Mirror This female Mallard replaces the Duck. The duck does not have its own chick sprite. For it to have the brown chick shown above, you must install the chick sprite above (BabyWhite Chicken). DOWNLOAD Mirror This Australorp replaces the Void Chicken. DOWNLOAD Mirror This white rabbit replaces the Rabbit. DOWNLOAD Mirror DOWNLOAD ALL (with Pig A, the Kunekune) Mirror DOWNLOAD ALL (with Pig B, the pink pig) Mirror INSTALLATION: Drop the files into Stardew Valley\Content\Animals, after backing up your files of course! Please let me know if you have any questions or problems. I tried to thoroughly test all of these, but there is bound to be something I missed. I also ask that nobody modify or redistribute these sprites! I am also willing to take some suggestions for other animals or breeds. I can't guarantee that your request will be filled, but if it is something that interests me, I'll try to! I am currently working on actual cow sprites to replace the cows, as I know deer aren't for everyone! I have also been asked to make different breeds of rabbits and pigs. I hope to have lots of options for you all sometime down the road. I know this was a lengthy post, so thank you for your time! Happy farming!
Hnng! You did absolutely lovely with these sprites! Your attention to detail is highly commendable. Your deer sprite is adorable, but I am quite excited for your attempt at the cow sprites! Thank you so much for allowing us to download these little gems.
They're all so cute, especially your little pigs look so much better than the default ones! You did a wonderful job with all these replacements, thank you for sharing them with us. ♥
Thank you both! Never thought anyone would say I had an eye for detail, haha. More animals will definitely be coming when I have the time!
Beautiful! I absolutely love the mallard~ Mini suggestion/request if you're ever interested but I've always wanted to see a bison mod. I'm not sure what it could replace but I think they're huge, hairy and lovable LOL
Someone on reddit suggested that as well! I think to replace a cow? A yak was also requested, and I will look into making them after I've made cows.
I'm sorry to hear that, I haven't heard of anyone having that problem. How are you putting the files in?
These are adorable! I know you said you're working on actual cows now, but any chance you're planning on a Blue Chicken for the 1.1 update that added them? And what about Dinosaurs?
Yes, I've been asked about blue chickens and dinosaurs and would be interested in doing them. Unfortunately right now I am not working on any mods; I'm taking a break from them for a while.
I'm definitely using these. Adorable! I'm loving the goat and the bunny especially, but they're all fantastic. You are an artist! ;-) I'd love to see what you do with the dinosaur, and if you get a chance, California bunnies would be really sweet. Thanks for the work!
Sorry for the late reply!! You have to unpack the .RAR files using a tool like winrar or WinZip first. The .XNB files inside are what go in your Animals folder.
