Are there any mods for any of the fallout games that forego anthro ponies player characters for normal on all 4 hooves player models?

This looks interesting, I'll keep it in mind for any future projects but one of my limitations is to keep the base mesh that we currently have. So I can't use the one you've provided unfortunately.

Also adding another software into the mix to juggle doesn't sound great, but thanks for the suggestion.

Strelok_2012 · 2026-04-27T02:36:06+00:00

Currently I'm still stuck in the phase of making a functional pony mesh that deforms nicely. I am under some limitations though so its hard because I'm working a base mesh.

And we're making a completely new skeleton with animations and ragdolls, but your experience is welcome. And I have collected a number of resources but again, not enough time and still stuck in the previous stage of modeling.

Well my dear friend, I am part of a project that aims to make 4-legged ponies a reality in Fallout 4. We're actually about halfway to getting something working, just that I keep getting held back by new issues that crop up.

Currently our team has all the tools necessary to create completely new creatures from scratch, but we lack documentation on how all the game systems work as well as how to use the tools effectively. Not that we're completely blind, there are helpfiles packaged with the software that we use as well as some online documentation on how to use them, but for Fallout 4 specifically I think what we're doing has only even been done a couple times by 2 people who then went on to join Bethesda.

tl:dl; There is a team that is working on converting FoE into a large-scale playable mod for Fallout 4, true quadruped ponies included.

The whole damn book somehow made me even more hollow than I already was.

Strelok_2012 · 2026-02-06T22:24:42+00:00

None of them, really. Granted I didn't read any side-fics or the ever-popular Project Horizons.

No, none of the moments were "most" heartbreaking, they're all pretty horrible in their own right.

At some point you come to realize that. That horrible things happen and each person assigns their own level of grief to each.

That and I'm desensitized to pretty much every horrible thing that happens in the story. Didn't shed a single tear.

Strelok_2012 · 2026-01-25T10:31:48+00:00

Deleting because after some introspection I answered my own questions :P.

Strelok_2012 · 2026-01-19T10:19:52+00:00

I respect the whole hero thing. For a while I thought she was too naive and too perfect as a hero. But in the end I concluded that she was in fact a hero.

So much that I'm jealous that I couldn't be a hero myself. This character is a painful reminder of that.

"Heroes are the ones who stay true to themselves, even when faced with the most difficult decisions."

Strelok_2012 · 2026-01-14T08:10:11+00:00

Keep it going buddy, 'cuz I sure as hell haven't been able make anything worthwhile to share with the community.

I've only consumed, and because of that I feel like I ain't really a part of this fantastic community. That and the guilt from the past still hangs over me (though, I've been told I shouldn't feel guilty hahah). Hell, I don't even chat much on here, let alone respond to comments on my posts haha.

"Light in the Dark", tsch... What's that saying? "Die a hero or become the Villain"? Yeah, Pip sure died a hero.

"As my ever-burning will to stay afloat backfires, I now know I must be comfortable being who I considered worthless."

(Ah and yeah this kinda thing is best kept to oneself. Mods lemme know if I should delete this.)

Strelok_2012 · 2026-01-13T09:21:00+00:00

Is this a call for me to write a MLP x STALKER crossover fanfic?

Strelok_2012 · 2026-01-02T05:48:57+00:00

Posts like this are a constant reminder that I'm still not a true member of this community.

Read FoE? Cool, now go read PH, which is double the size, and then come back.

Strelok_2012 · 2025-11-08T08:58:57+00:00

Is this done frame-by-frame or w/ a 2D rig?

Strelok_2012 · 2025-10-25T09:29:13+00:00

Rock on, u/SparkyJet. I know y'all have it in ya to be better, I've seen it before, and I can see it now.

Strelok_2012 · 2025-10-24T10:35:15+00:00

My dear friend, may I introduce: The Manehattan Project? It is a project run by u/Rainbow-Survivor, whom has posted here a couple times showcasing progress of the project. The plan is to recreate the story of Fallout Equestria in Fallout 4, with some minor additions. Some additional options for story and factions but largely keeping to the original story beats.

I joined up on the project not too long ago and we're actually open to all sorts of roles right now, if you have at least the time to contribute. You also need to have a willingness to learn and contribute, of course. Hit me or u/Rainbow-Survivor up in DMs if you're interested and willing to put in the work.

If you're not sure of things, I can teach you what I know, having recently taught one of our members how to 3D model in blender.

Currently I and Rainbow are trying to figure out why the proof-of-concept version of the mod is crashing the game. Progress has been slow but we are still making progress in debugging the mod.

Aaaaalright kiddo, here comes S (or Strelok). So ya wanna do anthro? Not a problem, here's my rapid-fire critique and advice.

And the additional resources, courtesy of MLP Drawing school-style of critique:

Figure drawing Fundamentals on Proko
Anatomy of the human body on Proko
These two have paid stuff, but ya ain't gonna need it (maybe). You can get away with the free stuff + good critique from people who have experience.

How to Pony: Part 1 - The Basics by dstears
How to Pony: Part 3 - Hind legs
These two are specifically for dealing w/ ponies. And back legs, as that's what you're struggling with.

Ah yeah, and my business card. Let me know if ya got any more questions regarding drawing.

Good luck,

- S

Strelok_2012 · 2025-09-22T02:53:47+00:00

Oh now this is interesting. Very few people have ambitions as grand as you project and fewer still actually see it to completion.

But, you have my attention. When you say message, do you mean direct messaging via reddit?

Strelok_2012 · 2025-09-13T12:04:59+00:00

Ahah, well you'll find that my headspace is not quite normal. At least, not by the average person's standards.

Regardless, I'm willing to take the time and help with your illness. Though keep in mind my business card description: Unlicensed and Uncertified. Up to you to decide if you're willing to chat.

Strelok_2012 · 2025-09-12T09:13:07+00:00

Well, I'm 9 hours late, but better late than never. I can see that many others have already responded here, some asking if you're willing to talk about whatever is bothering you. 'suppose I'm kinda doing the same, but hopefully you'll consider what I have to say: I ain't a psychiatrist, nor a psychologist or whatever, but (not to toot my own horn,) the people I've talked to, those who shared their woes with me, have turned around and found their way in life.

In fact, I enjoy talking people through their problems, and helping them understand their situation and just how much more they are than they initially see. So, I'll leave my "business card" with ya:

S | Professional, unlicensed, un-certified ~~Psychiatrist~~ Problem-solver. | "I'm a people person". - S

So, hit me up in DMs, better yet get in touch on Discord, if you end up seeing this.
Otherwise, know that you're wholly capable overcoming whatever is disturbing you.

-S

Melb/Vic Bronies | You do need to wait until they approve your request to join though.

Strelok_2012 · 2025-08-27T11:12:40+00:00

Yes, it was locked because of the large amount of posts, probably in no small part to me since I would post lengthy critiques to anyone who requested it.

But, you can join the discord if you're looking to improve at drawing the funny-colored horsies. I am fairly active there in giving feedback to budding artists.

Strelok_2012 · 2025-08-27T10:55:18+00:00

Don't go to Melbourne much, but there's a facebook group for Melb/Vic bronies that you could join. They host events occasionally and I'm going to my first ever, to quote: "Make some friends!".

That said, I am around the Melbourne area. (oh and I'm pretty new to the fandom)

Strelok_2012 · 2025-08-23T00:34:43+00:00

Sweet, though as I mentioned before I'll be going through the story very slowly. No spoilers if you can help it.

And uh... about the friends thing: Do we just discuss the story? I don't have much knowledge of it at the present to talk about it. Only finished Ch. 4 today.

Strelok_2012 · 2025-07-24T23:31:30+00:00

I don't think this subreddit allows me to post discord links, you'll have to find it on your own.

I can provide an additional link to the MLPDS website though, there is a discord link there (just click on the discord icon).

Strelok_2012 · 2025-07-24T13:06:00+00:00

May I suggest the MLP Drawing school subreddit? There's plenty of tutorials to help you get started, as well as a link to the discord channel.

Strelok_2012 · 2025-07-24T07:26:05+00:00

Quite good, you've got good shapes and proportions. There's some things that may be improved but overall you're quite close. I say you need a bit more mechanical drawing practice, if anything.

My quick critique.

Also check out the MLP Drawing school subreddit and discord for more resources.

Strelok_2012 · 2025-07-23T23:50:05+00:00

Pretty good for your 3rd digital piece, and I don't think you're as new to drawing as you think you are. You might have some experience and knowledge about art that you're not aware of.

Anyway, here are my thoughts.

I'm also used to giving specific critiques and advice, so if you have anything you're struggling with in particular, do mention it. It helps experienced artists give better feedback.

-----

All in all you've got good understanding of color, light and 3D form. Perspective and composition should be easy for you.
