Canine Avatars
Canines are the domesticated descentdants of wolves which did decide to stick with humans.
There is a rich variety of races available, which will slowly be expanded over time
After the success with the Shark avatars, the Shork Group decided to commission more avatars over time.
Currently planned are the following variants:
- German Shepherd
- Dalmatian
- Golden Retriever
- Husky / Malamute
Upgrade Packages
Currently we hope to get everything right with the v1.0 releases.
Mesh Import Information
We aim to have the canine mesh components scaled correctly and arranged in a single packet for easy import.
However, with our avatars being manufactured by different artists using different tools and formats, scaling issues might occur.
Adjustment of uploaded components might be necessary.

Textures
As a note on the eyes:
You can re-use the eyes from Shork Industries Shark Avatars. You just need to scale their size to the size of your avatars eyes and maybe rotate the eyes for the desired looks.
Or apply the the textures from a Shork Eye Texture pack to the eyes of your avatar.

Reusing Shark Avatar Eyes
To reuse Shork Shark Eyes, Aries Toony or [SKS] HD ones in-world, equip (a renamed copy of) the eyes and apply the following settings in the “Object” tab:
| Eye | Settings | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Right | Position | <0.00000, 0.00000, 0.00000> |
| Size | <0.06000, 0.06000, 0.06000> | |
| Rotation | <270.00000, 20.00000, 90.00000> | |
| Left | Position | <0.00000, 0.00000, 0.00000> |
| Size | <0.06000, 0.06000, 0.06000> | |
| Rotation | <270.00000, 340.00000, 90.00000> |
Alternatively create boulders with the parameters stated above, download the eye-texture pack from the Shark avatar page, select the texture and apply the texture of your choice to the newly made eyes.
Remember to scale the texture for the eyes to horizontal 1 and vertical 2 - but you're welcome to experiment, rotating the texture might look funky!
