I really like Cmarnyc's ear sliders but simply cannot get the shape I want using them (like Hylians in the Legend of Zelda series); the tips of the ears are too flat against the head and trying to tilt them outwards causes the whole ear to become misshapen and distorted. Has anyone had any success making differently shaped pointed ears? Are these the only pointed ear sliders that have ever been made?

You can make thousand different shapes. The only things you need to have are the skills to do it.

EA self has pointed ears sliders.

how do you tilt out the ear tips without warping the whole ear??

Try to compensate with the other sliders, including the vanilla ear sliders and the alien ear slider that was patched in.Try increasing slider ranges too. If you keep messing with them you can probably make anything. Maybe show us a picture of how far you can get towards what you want and a picture of what you want and people can advise you.

It's the mesh warping, not the texture warping, you're concerned with, right?
