Werewolf form modding CC

I really want to add werewolves to my game but honestly the way the werewolves look make me cringe. What I personally was hoping for was a nice combination of an updated version of sims 2 and sims 3 werewolves, so animalistic behaviour but predominantly humanoid form with a lot of body hair, big teeth, yellow eyes, and maybe some wolf ears. And uhhh... well the sims 4 werewolves aren't exactly that. At all. (Ngl the sims 2 werewolves are kind of horrific so more so like the sims 3 werewolves.)

Anyway. Is it possible to mod the werewolf beast form to behave like vampire's dark forms? And by that I mean no transforming into the werecat creation EA produced, but instead a human that you can add body hair, fangs, ears, etc onto? To give them the sims 3 werewolf look? Basically swapping out the vampire dark form skin details for werewolf skin details, and you can make it so that clothing, hairstyle and face carries over but you can add body hair on top and change the eyes and teeth etc? Of course these features would need CAS cc to create the look and those are easy to find tbh,

I'm not a modder and have no knowledge of the differences in the coding for vampire dark forms vs werewolf beast forms, so I'm asking anyone with knowledge on modding this kind of thing if making the werewolf form behave like a vampire dark form is possible, or even like the mermaid form, because seeing those EA werewolves, personally, makes me sad. Also if you're happy with the EA werewolves, that's fine. Please enjoy the pack in vanilla form. I just don't like them.

  • There is a werewolf mod by SpinningPlumbobs. I think it has what you are looking for.

    I've been following that mod for about 2 or 3 months and was hoping that Spinningplumbobs would merge their werewolves entirely with EA's, but instead they have decided to make them two different species (SP's lycans and EA's werewolves). I don't know if this is because it was the only option or if SP just wanted to keep their werewolves separate from EA's. It's an amazing mod. I'm just not sure if it gives the effect I'm after. When I get the pack (I'm waiting for the GP to be eligible to go on sale) I probably will give the mod a try but what I'm after is a default replacement of the beast form not an alternative type of werewolf alongside EA's.

    I'm not a modder so I have no idea if what I'm looking for is something that can be coded. I realize that the beast form has customizable features that vampire dark forms and/or mermaid forms don't have such as the Cats and Dogs style fur editing feature which might make it hard.  I'll keep an eye out for other mods and also check back to this incase anyone shares a mod I've missed.

    @SianAF148 There's another mod on Mod the Sims that's basically just a skin overlay you could apply to regular sims or werewolf sims in their human form. If that is something you might be interested in. I can't post a link here but you can find it on Mod the Sims by searching for "Werewolf Skins + other addons" by Tarruvi

    This will definitely help! I think I saw it in the past but I thought it was an actual skin not an overlay.

    @SianAF148 It's been a while since I've used it so I popped it back in to see how it would work with a Werewolf in human form. She's actually kinda cute! It shows up as a custom skin tone, rather than as a skin detail, but it's non-default and it shouldn't conflict with a default skin replacement (I am using one in my game). It did not interfere with tattoos or other skin details either (I am using both on this sim). The fur colors are separated into separate package files, so you only have to install the colors you want. There are some optional things like snouts and eyes that haven't tried. It did not affect my Sim's beast form at all (I made sure to un-link her forms in CAS before I applied the CC skin tone).

    I might see if I can get some wolf contact accessories and also turn this skin into an accessory overlay for my own use (I usually alter some cc like this but I never share it bc it's not exactly my cc, I just change the category)
