CAn you please say how to make the textures please i would too send a bit of tails and wings, please? (Sorry for my bad english)
I would recommend using a program called Techne. It allows you to model tails and such easily and quickly, as well as set up the textures. You'll also likely need an external graphics editor to create the textures. To have the custom colours for the tail, you'll need to have certain "green-screen" colours inside the texture. If you need a little more help, either look up some Techne tutorials or come and throw me a PM. ^^
I have already the techne and made the model but What is a green-screen color , please ?
Well, you know how there's three colours you can use when using the tails in game? You need to set where to put these colours. One colour is red, one is pink, and one is yellow. I'll show the exact hexadecimals/rgb values should you not know what exact colours I'm speaking of. These show where the custom colours people choose in game will be on the tail.
Think of a normal green-screen like in movies or tv. They use a green colour to print a background or image onto. But here, instead of an image, we simply change the colour in game. So the red, yellow and pink are like 3 different simple green-screens.
I would recommend opening up the tails mod with Winrar or a .zip program, and looking at the textures on the default tails. That should give you an idea, I hope. I learnt all of this through looking at the texture files in the mod, and I was able to make like 3 tails, so I truly hope it helps.
Any more problems and feel free to ask me. Same goes for anyone. ^^
I have a idea. Can you please you me texture the model and send it to kihira. The idea is a bit dumb but my computer is not the best. I can make only the models but not the textures. I have a lot of ideas but the programs a bit limit me. Then we can cooperate to make for the mod.

I'll texture but I need the model saved as a Techne file. Pm it to me and I'll do the rest. I don't need any credit though. >u<
Hey Kihira, I'm just wondering. You still working on this mod at all? Seems rather inactive.
Yes I'm still alive! Uni was just kicking my butt for a few months (seriously, 40 hour weeks on top of a job x.x) and I've just got back from PAX East.
I'll try to get a port to 1.9 out in the next few days as well as some bug fixes for older versions (going to try a more robust syncing solution).
After that I'll begin the next main version with better animations etc. That will take longer and I have other projects I'm working on as well so no promises on date at this point.
Hi! I just got a modpack downloaded with the Tails mod installed. However I'm having one problem. Exporting the skin with the new wings and tail, it only seems to save the color and the type of tail/wing, but not the texture. So when pressing load from skin, it's using angel wings instead of dragon wings for texture - only loading the Large Wings option. Is that meant to happen, and if not, could it be fixed to save the texture to the skin aswell? It just looks weird to have other people see my dragon skin with angel wings. xD Thanks in advance.
Hmm that might have been a derp on my part, I should be saving them but it could be reading it wrong.
For now, just use the default saving system (exporting to skin is optional)
On my server, suddently player models was vanish for themself (only other models was visible) and players was unable to edit their model until they delete their Tails.cfg. I didn't updated Tails at all or changed the ip of the server, so what is wrong?
We're using the latest version for 1.7.10.
Edit : After some tests, the mod is not working anymore, only own models are visible. Mod is still installed on both clients and server, but no one can see the other models. In short, the mod suddently ceassed to work on our server.
Edit 2 : We don't see our models even if our models are uploaded as skin on minecraft.net and restarted the game.
Edit 3 : I was able to change my model and others see it but one of my players cannot change it, when he selects for example a tail, the tail does not appear as preview on his skin and the selected tail turns gray in the selection menu at the left.
Interesting, I've had some issues reported with syncing Tails that I've never been able to reproduce but the gray texture means that the texture creation system broke somehow...
Did you download the official version from CurseForge? Is your server running in online mode?

It would help the OP to have it animated as well, but they have said that they're able to animate as long as you give the model and texture.

Pink Colour: rgb(255, 0, 255) or #ff00ff
Yellow Colour: rgb(255, 255, 0) or #ffff00
Red Colour: rgb(255, 0, 0) or #ff0000
okay i made it like you say to me and next what i must do to send her the tail please ?
Export it as a .java file, I think. I might be wrong. Then upload it to a file sharing site as well as the texture, and link it here for them to find.
okay I get but can you please tell me how to merge the colors I have only classic paint
http://www.gimp.org/ should help you.
