Features & Info

Nia's Realistic Soil uses a light shader overlay to recolor that generic brown to a gorgeous blend!

• Does not add new blocks
• Does not impact worldgen
• Client side only
• Does not have an effect on soil nutrients

Future Roadmap:

• Might expand into a redo of soil nutrients!
• Please contact us if you have any ideas!

ELEPHANT STUDIOS

A new modding team hoping to bring Vintage Story to life!

Some of our Projects:

Harper's Immersive Tools (HIT): Released (No Pending Updates)
A real-time render of all the tools, shields, backpacks, weapons, etc in your hotbar, suitable for multiplayer
with custom real-time configs to disable certain sheaths for better customization!

Misaki's Immersive Foliage (MIF): Beta (Initial release within a few days)
A complete remodel and retexture of Vintage Story's leaves and bushes for a more interesting composition for trees 
and canopies. Runs about 3% faster than vanilla while looking gorgeous too!

Wanda's Gizmos / Movement Tweaks (WGMT): Alpha (Initial release within a week)
A fully-functional grappling hook, with two modes: "Indiana Jones" esque swinging, or "James Bond's grapple-gun" as a mechanized pull. Balanced based on how much rope you have! Will be paired with new movement such as diving, rolling, vaulting, sliding down steep walls, hanging, and more! Each WGMT update will come with two versions, "Pure" grappling hook-only, and "Full" with both grappling hook and the movement tweaks too!

Sofia's Reach-Around (RS): Alpha (Initial release TBD)
A port of the quark / MC Bedrock mechanic to place blocks from the top/side without directly looking at the face

Nia's Realistic Soil (MIF): Beta (Initial release within a few days)
A recoloring of all dirt to match the rock strata below it for better blending (don't worry, it won't add 20 new dirt varieties, or need new worldgen)
