Please help

Just tried it out in singleplayer with 0.4.7. Works superbly!

pingpong2012, 2232, sandrik: What errors are those that you are getting? I mean the mod framework works, so what is the problem for you? Does the mod framework not even load for you?

[2232]

I'm fine for a few minutes, but when I walk up to a mob, it's usually at that time that it crashes. :-/

[EDIT:] It seems that it only occurs at night fall. If I disable and re-enable the mod, it is good until night fall.

[nikminers]

Anybody know how I can set this mod so I can drop/place infinite animals. Really annoying having to go back to the creative inventory every time I place an animal.

[Sokomine]

All you need is the name of the animal for /giveme. One example would be /giveme animal_cow:cow 9999

[robotest]

Also, you can give yourself 2 of the spawned item.
Having a stack of more than 1 node or item in the creative inventory can let you place that node forever

[nikminers]

K, thanks much! I have 1 last question, a little off-topic. How do I set sunlight to propagate? I figured it out in MT 0.4.4, but now I can't find it in 4.7, and don't remember where the setting was in 4.4.

[Willabee]

Having the same problem!

ServerError: LuaError: error running function 'on_step':
...\mods\animals_modpack-2.1.2\mobf/mgen_pathbased/main.lua:248 bad argumant #5
to 'find_path' (string expected, got no value)

I think it has something to do with the Vombies. It only happened when I was near them, and when I disabled them it worked fine. However, it left a "unknown item" drop... I'm hoping you'll address this soon! But regardless of that minor flaw, this is GREAT :D Thank you :D

[222jkm]

How do I use the barns?????? Anyone??

[Sokomine]

Place leaves in them and make sure some animals are nearby. They'll eat the leaves and produce offspring (provided they can - not all animals are capable of that).

[nikminers]

I quit using this mod, it ruined one of my worlds. I'm only getting a pathetic 3-5fps and I'm using a laptop with 8gb ddr3 ram, a 1gb gddr3 vid chip, and a phenom2 x4 @2.1ghz. I removed the mod but now I have no way of getting rid of unknown entities because I can't use that stupid unknown removal mod. Sapier, you really need to include something in your glitched mod to remove EVERYTHING this mod adds to worlds. That or make a useful unknown removal mod with a simple console command such as //remove unknown= all

[Jordach]

nikminers, /grant singleplayer server, then /clearobjects

It clears DROPPED ITEMS as well as ENTITIES as the ones you are describing.

/clearobjects may take a while so you can pop the kettle on and basically make a drink while you wait, it does take it's time for some worlds, your mileage may vary.

Thanks, I was entirely unaware of this. I was searching for a few days and never managed to find anything past some obscure, command-line-intensive mod I could never use. Perhaps this should be included somewhere in the description of this mod for newbies such as myself? Also, does this only clear unknown objects or everything I placed?

[sapier]

@nikminers you can also use gui to remove all entites without loosing all objects but of course you need mobf to be installed until all enities are removed

@all mobf 2.2 release is delayed due to minetest core missing features required for development branch ...
if pilzadam keeps only merging what he needs for his mods this may take a while

[Purrune]

saiper i have a glich look for it in bugs and problems.

[hammergil]

nice mod, i am a little confused on how to lasso the sheep however. when i try to lasso a sheep, it sheers it. if i right click with the lasso, it kills the sheep. am i missing something?

[sapier]

I've just labeled first preview version of upcoming mobf release, 2.1.80 is ready for testing.

Main improovements:
-way more smart probabilistic movement gen
-automatic movedir facing
-faction support (gui still missing)
-new settings menu (call by /mobf)
-profiling support (requires socket lua addon)
-some fixes from issues list

[Mossmanikin]

I just tested animals_modpack-mobf_2_2_dev a bit on minetest 0.4.7 stable.

When rightclicking on Chicken, Clownfish, Cow, Deer, Blue white fish, Gull, Rat, Sheep, Tamed Wolf, NPC or Ostrich I get the following error:

Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.

[sapier]

thanks for reporting this issue I'm gonna fix it as soon as possible

[Azvael]

Hi!

I'm running this mod without problems until I encounter a hostile mob at night. The game crashes and I get the following error:

ServerError: LuaError: error running fuction 'on_step':
/user/share/minetest/bultin/depreciated.lua:41: bad argument #6 to 'func' (string expected, got no value)

The crash occurs once I get close (don't know how close exactly) of a hostile mob at night.

Minetest 0.4.7 on Ubuntu 13.04

Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

P.S.

Sapier, thank you for creating this amazing mod. :)

[Mossmanikin]

Hi!

I'm running this mod without problems until I encounter a hostile mob at night.

This sounds familiar.
If it is the same error as I had a while ago this happens with the vombie.
In that case I would disable the spawning of vombies until the next update of this mod (in the development version I didn't have this error).

How Do i get Off The Ostrich im Kinda Stuck

[Neuromancer]

Please work with Mossmannikin and add support for his fishing mod. Each mod should be able to detect each other. This mod should only have to detect if a bobber is in the water and then the fish behave differently. For example:

• Once a bobber is in the water, a fish should spawn within 10 nodes.
  It will still have random movement at that point, but it should have a higher probability of moving toward the nodes directly beneath the bobber.
  Anytime the fish is directly beneath the bobber, it will have a certain percentage of stealing the bait, meaning it will go back to moving completely randomly and can't be hooked.
  If under the bobber it will also have a certain percentage chance of being hooked.
  If it is hooked the fish will move away from the player and down and drag the bobber under the water. But the fish can only go a small distance away from the bobber (say 3-4 nodes away from the bobber)
  The player then can reel the fish in by using the scroll wheel on the mouse which will bring the bobber and thus the attached fish closer and closer to the player and the bobber up.
  Once the fish is touching the player, it disappears from the world and appears in the players inventory with a message that the fish has been caught.

Even if only some of this could be implemented together it would be awesome!

I love your idea! :)

@ sapier: if you're willing to collaborate and you have time for it, let me know. :)

Here's some other stuff, maybe have a splashing sound if the fish gets near the surface or when it is pulled out of the water. Or better still, have the fish be able to jump 1 node out of the water with a splashing sound, and have a chance of "throwing the hook" or becoming unhooked when jumping. Feel free to use splashing sounds from ambience immersive sounds mod.

Yeah, jumping fish would be cool.

Some random thoughts:
*So is the only way to get a bone to tame a wolf by killing a vombie?
*Boombombs/creepers are causing the game to crash. Even with the latest dev version.
*Why do bigred's never appear? All that ever spawns for me are boatloads of vombies and regular animals.
