Latest release (for Vintage Story 1.21.0-pre.1 - 1.21.6, outdated):
ElkResiduePots-v.2.0.0.zip  1-click install

Ever wanted to bring glue on your adventures, but your inventory would be too full?
Well look no further. This mod lets you attach residue-covered pot to your trusty elk.

 

The residue-covered pot on the elk displays the residue-covered pots texture.
One or two residue-covered pots may be attached, and they are compatible with cooking pots, so an elk may carry one of each at the same time. Textures now work properly!

 

Compatibility:

v.2.0.0 will likely work for all of 1.21, but has only been tested for 1.21.6. Lmk if there are any problems.


Since this mod only edits a little of the residue-covered pots file, it should be compatible with mods that change the elk, as long as those mods don't change the slots or something... 
However, this does add a copy of all of the residue-covered pots different texture colour variations, as I couldn't get the residue texture overlay to work on the elk. I might customize these textures more in the future.

The mod seems to be safe in my preliminary tests. Disabling it while an elk has one attached just makes it invisible, and ctrl+right-click removes it safely and gives you the item back :)

 

1.20.12 version - v.1.0.0
I can't get the residue texture and normal pot texture to work at the same (one on each side of the elk). The portside elks left side takes priority for the texture.
Mod probably works fine in earlier 1.20 versions.

 

Credit to my deer dear friend for the idea and the thumbnail art!

 

Future plans:

  • make crocks actually visible in 1.21 (they can already be placed on elk, but they're missing their model)

1.21.0-pre.1 - 1.21.6

1.21 version! 

  • compatible with all vanilla clay colours

 

Fixes: 

  • textures now work on both sides of the elk, regardless of being residue-covered or not

 

Changes:

  • removed shape files
  • added duplicates of all residue-pot texture files as I couldn't get the textures to be displayed with the vanilla overlay method

Basically everything under the hood is changed, but in practice works the same. This version will not work in 1.20!

Will likely work for all of 1.21, but has only been tested for 1.21.6. Lmk if there are any problems
