Announcement: Hunting mod for .960

[Highlander]

This mod is included in Age of Machinery. It will not be released alone.

This is a small mod about hunting:

Current Features:

• Deer herds on the world map
• Boar herds on the world map
• Hunting missions:
  
  • The animal herds move around close together on the terrain
  • Wounded animals move slower
  • Animals probably only attackable with ranged weapons (unless I find a way to fix that)
• Source code will be included, everything free to use in any mod

Contributors:

• Highlander: Deer model, texture; boar texture; scripting
• vlad_flyzzz: boar model; bear model; stag model; alternative deer model

Screenshots:

Deer model

Release Info:
There is currently a problem with horses (or deers) in .960. Once it is fixed, the mod will probably be released right away.
ETA: a few days.

Other animals for hunting could be implemented, too. They have to have a similar size to horses, though. If someone contributed a good animal model, it would be in the mod for sure.

I could hug you.

So that's what you were smirking about in the module system thread.


Awesome.

[Saber Cherry]

Sounds good!

Just make sure the rabbits are dangerous, with big teeth that tear through armor.

I have been waiting for something like this for a long time.

Good luck.

[Kraven]

Please find a way to fix that soon so I will be able to chop them deers with my bardiche in thousands!!!

amazing, though I think deers on the world map make the other lord parties look dumb.
It surprised me too... I thought it was another newbie starting an idea because he played oblivion.

[DarkSoldier]

Is invisible rider that dies with its mount too much of a hack job

Plus, forcing player to use bows/xbows/rifles in mission template would be nice too... you know couch lancing deer isn't exactly sports Its like hunting ducks with a .50 cal sniper rifle or going after bears with tomahawk missiles... or ion cannoning elephants...
