One of the features this thing has is the ability to change textures by right clicking an existing harpy or arachne with magic candy. This is neat because it gives us flexibility in adding more.

I want to add more of them. I also want to make it so we can dynamically generate more IDs for the textures without interfering with things like morph.

Hey, I'd like to contribute by making some new textures but I need help getting a hold of the model so I can preview the textures (I have very little experience with java). Can you hit me up on discord? My tag is Rezu#0033

I'm actually terrible at explaining, but the textures are already there if you need a baseline to work off of.

This should show you where they are.

I had already found them, I was just wondering if there was a way to preview them in a model editor instead of loading up minecraft every time, which is what I'm doing currently.

As for what I was planning, I was thinking of making young/old versions of the currently existing arachnes so every existing color is available in both small and medium sizes, and then make some arachnes loosely based on currently existing characters + some others based on real spiders.

How does that all sound?
