[Modpack] Animals Modpack [2.5] -- 2.6 approaching

[sapier]

switch back to minetest core prior stl changes core seems to be messed up this doesn't seam to be a mobf bug!

[legumev]

My tamed wolf keeps disappearing completely. I already made about 5 of them and each time I have to find a wild wolf.

The tamed wolf work ok for a while, but does not follow me if I go far and is not there when I come back.

I run 0.4.5

[sapier]

tamed wolf should teleport to you if it's distance is too big maybe there is a problem in finding a destination where to teleport to.

do you use stable or development branch?

@4aiman

Sorry your .x model misses animation and exporting the blender project to .b3d results in model size of 2.8mb ... I assume this has to do something with the way you did animate the model. I've posted a link to the b3d script some posts above. Don't get me wrong I really appreciate this model it's great it's just too big. sorry

0.4.5

Crashes my game when I go to my inventory and go to next page.

Please update this. I love this mod, but it doesn't seem to work since I got 0.4.5

The error was

I use the stable version 0.4.5 and I often use travelnet, going from station to station (from the mod "travelnet"). But I have tested where I just walk away and the tamed wolf doesn't follow.

I experienced this with the creative inventory in 0.4.4 as well. I'm not sure it was this mod, but if I disabled all the ones that don't come stock with the game, the crash stopped occurring.

This topic might help, especially post 6.

[sapier]

thx I'll do an update release for stable to fix this bug

tamed wolf can't follow you on teleporting, travelnet is doing teleports.

I understand it cannot follow me, but I would like to find it there when I come back, and instead, now, it disappears.

Why not set position of a wolf after teleport? Say, if distance wolf <-> owner is more than X then "teleport" (setpos) wolf to X/2.

[Temperest]

The wolf entity becomes staticized when the block becomes unloaded. That means we can't manipulate it. This would be possible if the force_load entity patch was merged (pull request #446), but there does not seem to be much progress in getting that to happen.

While this is true, I think the server keeps blocks around for a while after players leave them, for efficient caching. So the entity might have a short amount of time to follow if it's not too lazy about it. You probably wouldn't want to teleport the wolf to some arbitrary place in between though (unless maybe you check whether the target position is also loaded first).

[Temperest]

Well, the blocks are loaded but as you have experienced, the wolf is unable to teleport. That means the entity isn't being stepped.

If you'd like to see the force_load patch pulled and wolves fixed reliably, give it a bump over at https://github.com/minetest/minetest/pull/446 !

[sapier]

"the wolf is unable to teleport."

that's not exactly true, wolf already has teleport capabilitys, but I can't check distance to player on each step without killing performance. The only way to do this would be right before unload but there isn't a callback for this. No I can't use the static data saving callback as unload is already in progress as soon as this is called. I may be able to spawn a new wolf and mark the recently unloaded wolf as to delete. That might work but is a workaround only.

EDIT1: this workaround won't be added to stable version it's a new feature for 2.1 version.

[jojoa1997]

Wolves shouldn't follow unless you put a leash or cooler on them. When they are tamed they should guard wherever you put them.

[sapier]

isn't this already implemented in development branch? Thought I added this some time ago. If not already done it's gonna be added in 2.1.

@proller, I'll fix this, but you shouldn't place a tamed wolf on water ;-)

[Dopium]

Looks good to bad i have never been able to get it to work though, i will try again on your next update

[legumev]

The 2.0.5 primary download includes the 2.0.4 version, probably by mistake. After you delete that extraneous folder, the 2.0.5 version of the mod will work.

[jordan4ibanez]

What program did you use to make the animations?

[sapier]

I fixed the download file yes 2.0.4 inclusion was a bug :-/ don't know how this happened.

@jordan4ibanez I use blender to create models as well as animation and gimp for textures.

[jordan4ibanez]

I would like to collaberate with you on: rewriting this mod,making better textures, and better models. Please pm me or message me on the IRC if you would be interested. Those of us who are making mobs need to work together.

[deivan]

I have a small question. You are using a ABM for each entity no? Already try make a single ABM and process every entity for each user for performance purpose?

[sapier]

abm usage in recent mobf versions is minor. once abm's were used as spawning mechanism, but this was replaced by on_generate spawning. you may enable abm based spawning by enabling secondary spawning but this is not recomended.

ABM's are only relevant for blocks as you already mentioned mobs are entities wich have nothing to do with blocks.

[deivan]

I have many things making my game slow down... I don't know the cause. :-/
The "sand golem?" don't is doing damage any more (In logs I see lost 0hp) this is the correct?

[jordan4ibanez]

I posted something on the bottom of the last page. Just making sure.

[Sokomine]

I would like to collaberate with you on: rewriting this mod,making better textures, and better models.

Sounds fine! Hope you and sapier can manage to improve the mod even more.

I do like most of the models of the peaceful animals (including wolf) of this mod. They could certainly be improved in parts, but what I like most about them is that they are more like...adult...animals. Not the tribmmed-to-be-cute-and-slaughtered-animals like in Minecraft, but realistic (sometimes slightly gone-mad-looking :-)) cows and sheep etc. The deer is great as well! And the ostrich.

A goat would be great as a new animal. Single goats are more likely to occour than single sheep, plus they are experts in climbing.

Cows ought to occur with brown hide as well.

Owned animals need protection against beeing caught by other people than their owners.

The peaceful_npc mod is also nice to have around. Those NPC bring further life to a server.
