Screenshot of the CAOS Tool

The CAOS Tool is a Windows program developed by Creature Labs to write and inject CAOS code into the Creatures 3/Docking Station engine. It was the tool used internally by Creature Labs when they made the games, and was originally sold through CDN but is now a free download. You need to use the registration key provided on the official website to run the tool.

If you are using Creatures Exodus, you may need to install the Creatures Remastered Patch so that the CAOS Tool can talk to your game properly.
