The aim of this mod is to upscale/improve/edit/fix the default mutant meshes.
This mod provides upscaled models for "vanilla" mutants with geometry edits and other fixes. (See pictures below for examples). It does not provide anything like upscaled textures etc. so the effects in game may only appear subtle.
This is still WIP and requires testing
I have tested this on a modded and vanilla copy of anomaly and all appears to be working as desired. I now require useful feedback and suggestions from the community.
Current list of mutants included in this mod:
- Burers
- Bloodsuckers
- Chimera
- Controllers
- Dogs
- Flesh's
- Boars
- Pseudo/Psydogs
- Pseudogiants
- Rats (why not)
- Snorks
- Tushkanos
- Karlik
- Zombies (standard/vanilla models)
- Cats (normal - still WIP)
- Fracture
- Psysuckers
List of mutants currently WIP and due to be released with future updates
- Cat's (remaining models)
- Flesh with ears (Flesh_3 - Ballache. May or may not include)
Any other mutants will not be touched either due to them being unused assets or they don't really need work (i.e. lurker). The plans for this mod may change depending on what anomaly 1.6 brings to the table.
- UV edits have already started and will hopefully cover all of the mutants with issues in the near future
- Skeletal edits/fixes
- May add upscaled 4K textures (gigapixel) as an optional file if there is enough demand for it.
- May add the other unused mutant models (spawned through mods) if there is enough demand for it.
Installation
- Simply unzip and move the db folder into your anomaly root directory
OR
- Copy the HDMutants.db0 into your db/mods folder.
OR
- Use your favourite mod loader.
Compatibility/Notes
- Should be compatible with everything that doesn't edit mutant meshes.
- No new game required.
- Remove after manual install: just delete the HDMutants.db0 from your db/mods folder. There will be no residual issues.
- Object detail is recommended at 1.5 for the full enhancement effect.
- Increases poly count x4 in most cases so not recommended for potato's. (This is not as taxing as HD NPC models however).
I recommend checking out Blackgrowl's fixed vanilla models & textures as a great accompaniment to this mod!
Special thanks to everyone at the testudo cohort: you know who you are!

Hell yeah, can't wait to see this finished.
nice
Can we get an optional file where the mutants look like a 1998 3d game with about 6 or 7 polygons?
i second the potato vote
better yet, make`em 2d sprites. i`ll drink to that.
Why not... I will look into it ;)

LoL this tard is not even able to place meshes on comparison screenshots in a same order.
How can we expect anything good from this?
well arent you a stingy ****
This guy is just another weak troll. Look at their profile its new and is just them complaining about ****.
Instead of only using one of the two neurons you're brain has, use both, maybe you'd be able to tell the difference between each models then.
Why does one choose to be unpleasant?
I will definitely try this.
Please do! And please let me know if you find any bugs :)
I don't get it, what is this supposed to be? I thought we'd only post "finished" mods on here? I have about 20 "wip" mods I could plaster here. I dunno.
EDIT: apologies for the somewhat crude comment, when I first looked at the mod I could not see the "read more" section, so could not see the screenshots. hahaha
Read the description. Look at the screens. That's what it is. I need feedback. If you wanna try it, try it. It's easy to install, uninstall and doesn't make anything worse. If you don't like that it's WIP, don't try it. Simple.
aaah now I see the screens. When I tried before there was no "read more" option, so I only saw the two lines of text. lol.
It's looking good my man! keep it up!

Ok, just a clueless guy who doesn't work at NASA like everyone else on moddb. And everyone quickly the negative point of Karma, this community, the world in general sucks.
that's amazing
I commend you for your work I always felt the mutants needing a little face lifting after all this time, glad to see someone is now doing just that.
Thankyou :) There will be an update later today or tomorrow hopefully!
Nice profile pic :3

А есть более подробный скриншот,или сравнение до и после?
Looks hella cool, but can we have some in-game comparison screens please?
Thanks. Will try and get some tonight or maybe tomorrow
Every now and then I come to the Addons section to see if anything new comes out that would make me want to replay the game again, this is one of those Addons I love :)
This is awesome! I can not wait to see the zombies as their models look the most dated in my opinion. Keep up the great work here!
Thankyou :) Zombies will be done this weekend all being well!
Really looking forward to the zombie fix, they definitely needs it the most. Thanks for the mod btw
Saw your post on discord about it yesterday, and I love it!
Thanks :D
Good job
Thanks :D
Don´t take the comment from timdeygun to heart, gives me conniptions when people are rude to clearly talented people improving the game.
And that cat is nightmare fuel.
❤️
Please make the chimera look like COP, I hate the misery mod mesh for it
Keep up the good work Umbrel :)
about time someone did this, i salute you
Love it, can you share textured editor pictures or in-game screenshots?
Well done, splendid piece of work :) Additional kudos for the rats!
very interesting mod, this game need it and looks great from the pics, thx a lot for your work and keep it up ;)
is there a changelog for today?
Top comment :) I'll add it to the description
ah, sorry didn't see it
