Hello everybody,
Here are some default replacements for the AquaBox Five-Gallon Aquarium
Updated 01.XI.2021: added a file with smaller fish textures.
Fish: 256x512 OR 512x512 textures & meshes, one default file for all six creatures - pick one.
I recommend you pick 256 x 512 textures.
If you don't have full transparency antialiasing enabled in your game,
but texture memory is not an issue, try 512 x 512 fish textures - it might look better.
Plants & algae (dirty state): texture & TXMT file (a few color options - pick one!)
Drop the files directly into your Downloads folder.
I've also included
Default invisible net (TXMT),
if you use my Aquabox Makeover Kit you might want to have it.
Enjoy !

Some technical notes:
Even though my replacement textures are very, VERY saturated, aquarium fish still look a bit dark.
I couldn't find the right file to correct the brightness. There's a bunch of fish TXMTs - but replacing these didn't change anything.
Not sure if it can be edited.
Meshes are original with modified UVmapping, it's not perfect but good enough I think.
As there are no morphs or bones it's very easy to replace these - but more high-poly meshes make the 'waving' animation super wonky, like, fish waving from top to bottom instead of head-to-tail. Ugh..
