The MeowSTA is an inverted mod made by Xeran on the 27th of August, 2020.

History

Originally based on the Fenboss mod, it was originally named the Fengear as a parody of Menowa*'s STA Gear mod. V 0 1 D, the creator of the Fenboss, took issue with this, as the mod did not use Penzgear parts and Xeran was not a Fen, which would have confusingly associated the mod with V 0 1 D instead. After some arguing that resulted in no change V 0 1 D created a Giotto mod that he then named the Fengear as well, which other spinners and modders took some interest in and started making instead. It was then that Xeran began occasionally using the informal name 'Catgear' and tweaking the design.

V 0 1 D suggested the name be changed instead to 'MeowSTA' after the way that palicoes (small feline humanoids) greet humans in the Monster Hunter games, referring to them as 'Meowster' instead of 'Mister'. The name was finally officially changed from Fengear to MeowSTA on 10th Feb, 2021, ending the war over the Fengear name as V 0 1 D would release a second generation Fengear mod.

 ==History==
-The mod has gone through 3 versions of weight package construction with the final version to be called MeowSTA being created on 20/09/2020.
+Originally based on the [[Fenboss]] mod, it was originally named the '''Fengear''' as a parody of [[Menowa*|Menowa*'s]] [[STA Gear]] mod. V 0 1 D, the creator of the Fenboss, took issue with this, as the mod did not use [[Penzgear]] parts and Xeran was not a Fen, which would have confusingly associated the mod with V 0 1 D instead. After some arguing that resulted in no change V 0 1 D created a [[Giotto]] mod that he then named the Fengear as well, which other spinners and modders took some interest in and started making instead. It was then that Xeran began occasionally using the informal name 'Catgear' and tweaking the design.
-There has been 4 name changes since the first creation of the mod; Originally the mod was called FenSTA but was changed shortly after to Fengear as it predated V01d's Fengear mod and the Xeran wanted to own the mod name as a joke towards V01d.
-It began to be referred to as the Catgear by the creator and others as V01d's Fengear became more popular. Then Xeran officially changed the name to MeowSTA at the recommendation of V01d on 10/02/2020.
+V 0 1 D suggested the name be changed instead to 'MeowSTA' after the way that palicoes (small feline humanoids) greet humans in the Monster Hunter games, referring to them as 'Meowster' instead of 'Mister'.  The name was finally officially changed from Fengear to '''MeowSTA''' on 10th Feb, 2021, ending the war over the Fengear name as V 0 1 D would release a second generation Fengear mod.
