Docs
Merle doc rewritten to be like what it was pre-2019 at PKC; it is now looser with only the most extreme merle patterns being restricted to relaxed merle dogs
'Brown tabby' is now called 'Black tabby' throughout the docs and standards, to reflect how it referred to genetically
Fur texture guidelines are now loosened so that any fur texture of the correct fur type can be used on a pet; previously, if you wanted to change a file's standard fur texture from, say, hair10 to hair6, you would then have to resubmit the file for acceptance. This is no longer the case; details on what internal fur textures represent which fur type(s) are provided in the docs, and additional fur textures are listed in the texture library
Tan points/Urajiro marking requirements loosened slightly; UKC apply a "benefit of the doubt" approach when white is predominant on the front of the chest of a tan-pointed/urajiro dog — we assume that the tan/urajiro chest markings are present but hidden by white, therefore a lack of these in such dogs is not faulted
Multiple docs edited to emphasise that noses and noseshines must be either untextured or specific nose leather textures
10-19 (white) added to the list of indices that must be unchanged for a-reg petz that use custom palettes (and have white on them somewhere)
