#petz#petz 4#these are all on tfm at the moment#if i haven't said so before: to ''brex'' a pet is to take a mixed breed pet and then modify things on top of the appearance of the bred pet#like changing colors or in most of my cases adding new markings and textures and such#it comes from ''hexing'' which is what modifying petz is called due to the fact that it was originally done primarily using hex editors#and ''bred'' because it's modifying bred petz and petz hexing was traditionally more often done on breedfiles#i remember brexing being looked down upon to some extent in the community for awhile#mostly because it was sometimes used to give a pet something like eyelids that match the fur color#but we didn't have the information necessary to edit the genetics of a pet at that time so the eyelid color would not pass down#also some people saw it as ''cheating''#it doesn't seem like anybody really does it to pass off petz as having different genetics as they have anymore though#and it seems to be more recognized as another fun offshoot of petz hexing nowadays
