I can't find the mod for fauna foraging normal? Is it a setting I need to enable in the mod options or is it a separate mod I need to add?

Ciao Scimmia!
Oh, I am blind, sorry. Thanks so much for pointing it out <3
I guess farm means any farm buildings that are on the Zomboid map? =)

Hi! @FiyahKitteh In the mod description there’s a list of all the spawn zones and the foraging levels required for each animal.

If you want to make sure the mod is working correctly, I recommend launching the game in -debug mode, that way you’ll have admin commands and can try spawning one of the animals manually to confirm it’s loading properly.

Also, please make sure you’ve enabled Mod ID: FaunaForagingNormal
The other one (FaunaForagingRare) is meant for very rare spawn settings, so it’s easy to miss them during normal gameplay.

Quick question. WHERE do the animals spawn and how frequent? I haven't seen a single one, and I am trying to figure out of there is a compatibility issue, or if I am just not looking in the right places. =O

ah they don't move ahhhhhhh oh
thanks for the info

Hi @Samy FIGUEROA the Fauna mod adds animals as realistic props for RP (they are not NPCs, so they don’t move). You can butcher them for meat, lard, and leather, and use them for immersion.

You have 3 options:

Only RealisticKentuckyFaunaPropsForRP → animals appear as visible props on the map.

+ FaunaForagingNormal → animals can be found through foraging, normal frequency.

+ FaunaForagingRare → animals can be found through foraging, very rare frequency.

⚠️ Enable only one of the foraging options (Normal or Rare, never both).
City animals (cats, dogs) can be found with foraging in urban areas.
If you spawn an animal and it doesn’t move, that’s normal: it’s a prop, not an NPC.

Now you can choose to have no foraging, normal foraging, or rare foraging.

I dont understand this

If we want Animal spawning without activate foraging we need to choose "RealisticKentuckyFaunaPropsForRP" and animals will spawn anywhere on the map and visible ?

Sorry but need to understand how this mod works

even if the animals are rare, I should see cats in Urban zone right ?

So i just tried to spawn one with the admin panel (a black cat) and it's not moving it's like an object so, lol

I have a dedicated server at home
I mean I never saw any animals since I played on my server (one week)
I tried on the vanilla map and on a custom map, no animals anywhere on both
I dont know if I have errors related to the mod
I didnt check if I can spawn animals in debug mode, can I do it in Admin in my MP Game ?
There is a particular order for the mod in the server settings file ?
I have all these mods related to Fauna and in this order :
FaunaForagingNormal;
FaunaActions;
FaunaMoreCats;
FaunaMoreCatsForaging

@Samy FIGUEROA yes, it's compatible with Immersive Hunting, what do you mean it's not working? are you playing in mp or sp? Do you get errors? Are you able to spawn animals in debug mode?

This mod is just not working for me :/ Is it compatible with Immersive Hunting ? maybe it's the issue

@Agent Orange Yes, you can add the mod mid-game without any issues. It will work fine on an ongoing multiplayer server.

@soupa doopa: There are already a couple of animals that can be “worn” by admins, like dogs and the white crocodile called Ulysses. If you equip them together with an “invisibility suit” (there are many mods that give invisibility through items), you’ll get the effect of impersonating the animal. For now, these are the only animals that an admin can “wear,” and they move together with you.

Can this be added to an ongoing MP server?

hello my love would it be possible to make all the animals wearable? as morphs, i guess? or avatars? specifically for admins on multiplayer servers, not naturally occurring/applying to what you find foraging but only accessible through admin tools so admins can be animals! i was trying to find a mod like that but it seems it does not exist and it would be very fun to have that!

@socomanrat I'm sorry that it’s not working for you. I haven’t made any changes in months, so it’s probably an incompatibility issue. If you could please share the error message from the console, that would be really helpful.
@Melona thank you for the kind words, I'm glad you're enjoying the mod!

Not working anymore :'c

Holy shit I had no idea this existed! It looks amazing!!!
I need it for b42 badly T.T

No Build 42 tag. Last update was before B42.

is this for b42?

Hi guys, thanks for all the comments and to those who are still using the mod. The mod hasn’t been abandoned, I’ve just taken a break from programming/3D modeling. I’ll be back soon to release updates and fixes for the remaining bugs. Thanks to everyone for playing with my mod and for your patience!

for some reason when we pet any of the animals the stress level goes up

are you able to make the python a wearable item please and thank you?

What I need to do to activate the mod? Just subscribe? I was playing in cooperative and subscribed but could not see animals

How do I sheer the sheep? I figured it would be scissors but it didnt work.

I also would like to know, does this allow us to interact with or ride the horses?

I saw a Build 40 mod that apparently allowed us to have the horses follow us and carry a bag, but they couldn't be ridden.

Would be epic if we can ride them in 41 or in 42 when it drops to stable.

It would be cool if it have an update for build 42 with only the cats and dogs or other animals that they still don't have o build 42

If you don't update this mod to allow birds to sit on your shoulder too I will come to your house and cry outside your window for the rest of your life.

Wait, does this mod also allow riding on horseback? that would be awesome

how to get this item?

I cant wait to have cats on build 42 with me ! thanks for the work!

ooooo

Holy crap, I'm excited for the next update to this mod Scimmia!

can't wait to see what this mod will look like once it's made to use the animals in B42

Can’t wait! Take your time though, it’s going to be a huge project, no doubt about that.

@CageyPower, the plan is to include several animals in version 42, which was just released! The animals already have all their skeletons ready, but they need to be animated, so it will be a long job (I'm working on it alone). I have no doubt that it will be possible to create a dog that follows you around and attacks infected, but we’ll see over time. There’s a lot to learn about the new release.

@Elgappa <3

GOATED Modder

I'm just curious, what are the future plans for this mod? Will there be the possibility for dogs to be trained to attack and defend?

@Scimmia Thanks for confirming!

@Chocolocomoco yes, can be added or removed at any moment of the game

Hello, can this be added with my current save for MP?

@Jesselife01 Monkey don't typically live in Kentucky ): ...but I've a zoo-patch in program

how can you have a monkey picture and not add them to the mod :(

@Breno The mod is designed to be played on RP servers. Sure, you can spawn animals yourself using debug mode in single player—no one’s stopping you! But I assure you the foraging works. On my personal MP server, players have found two cows, three sheep, a horse, three cats, and several chickens and rabbits, all with RARE settings.

Use a depuração do jogo ou o cheat menu pra adicionar esses bichos de fazenda que você quer, não perca seu tempo com o sistema de coleta vai jogar seu tempo no lixo com isso.

@Scimmia si alla fine ci ero arrivato, grazie della spiegazione
In single player mi fa scegliere il tipo di foraging da attivare (dalla lista mod) ma in multiplayer che hosto la partita no, non ho ancora constatato se funzioni a me in MP, in single player funziona perfettamente, ti terrò aggiornato

Hi @Literally popbob As of the February 23 update, the ability to capture animals with trapping has been removed due to numerous bugs. I don’t know if it will be restored in the future.

@SansUndertale141 Il foraging è il sistema per il quale raccogli oggetti cercando nella natura. E' quello che usi cliccando sulla lente di ingrandimento sull'HUD

Alright, I'd love to know: Does the trapping even work? The code is all there, but it's all listed as just commented and not actually applicable. Meaning trapping doesn't work **at all**.

@Scimmia scusami se ti sto rompendo le palle 😅 purtroppo alcune cose ancora non le ho note.. Cosa è il foraging esattamente?
Ci sono cose che ancora non so nonostante le mie 70+ ore 😂
