Author's Statement

🎯 Why do I make mods?

Because I run themed servers and want my players to have a truly unique and immersive experience there.

🌍 Why are my mods posted here?

Because there is no other easy way to distribute them to my players. If it were up to me, I would probably never publish them publicly.

πŸ’‘ Mod Development

I have spent hundreds of hours developing these mods and have never made a single penny from them (just saying). On the other hand, I personally support several other mod creators on Patreon to keep the community thriving.

Are there any other trader mods this one is incompatible with? We are using trader camps and bettertraders and can't find the animal trader in our world. I recreated the world in SP and flew around with the block overlay mod to try and find the trader, I couldn't find them despite searching thousands of blocks away.

Mulciber, Jun 13th at 5:48 PM

Thanks for this mod!  It has made my most current playthrough much more enjoyable.  Finding the trader is a fun little adventure and it's so helpful to get animal husbandry up and running.  Cheers!

Bl0ckparty, May 3rd at 12:15 AM

I would hope that if this mod gets updated, that there is a config where (1) you can vary what generation the animals are at in domestication.  As in choices that they are all automatically Gen 10, a random Generation, a random Generation above a set Generation like say Gen 5 or higher.  And (2) you can add certain animals to the list like rabbits, ducks, turkeys, horses, etc.  (The Wild Animal Trader could have Bears, Wolves, Foxes, Moose, all the deer, and some of the more exotic or mythological animals.  And they could still have all animals "considered wild", but they'd all be at Gen 0/Zero.)

Thegr8pug

Of course he sells just this. Like always. This is Domestic animal trader!! If you want wild animals trader you need this https://mods.vintagestory.at/wildanimalstrader

Thegr8pug

He sells other goats and pigs. Trader is updated to 1.21.x. This is not really trader you want..

Thegr8pug, Feb 1st at 7:09 PM

SparrowOfRealms

SparrowOfRealms, Dec 12th 2025 at 6:58 AM (modified Dec 13th 2025 at 4:33 AM)

Will the trader still spawn in an existing world?

EDIT: WOOHOOOOOO!

DejFidOFF , Mar 30th 2025 at 9:05 PM

Drehverschluss

no

Evoken

yes, itΒ΄s just a trader with his house

 

 

 

Evoken, Mar 30th 2025 at 4:38 PM

Do this mod work in singleplayer normal world? I mean singleplayer not-skyblock

Drehverschluss, Mar 24th 2025 at 5:52 AM

Hello.

 

Is there a way to force the trader to spawn?

Malikyte, Mar 11th 2025 at 9:12 AM

Thank you

DejFidOFF , Mar 11th 2025 at 8:26 AM

Malikyte

Nothing. Just trader will not selling / buying items from that mods

 

Malikyte, Mar 11th 2025 at 6:55 AM

What happens if you don't use one of the pets mods? I use PetAI and Wolf Taming but not Cats. Will this trader mod still work without Cats?

WastedWanderer

Hi. It works with all of 1.20 versions

WastedWanderer, Feb 16th 2025 at 4:44 PM

i noticed this skips 1.20.3 does any version work with 1.20.3 and if so which version thank you

PrivatePretzel, Jan 7th 2025 at 10:12 AM

@DejFidOFF Thank you!

DejFidOFF , Jan 6th 2025 at 9:42 PM

GingerTail

Hello, thank you. All my traders mods are compatible with Better traders. I am using them all on my servers. They are almost same spawn chances so works fine together.

No they are a content mods so no configs.

PrivatePretzel, Jan 6th 2025 at 12:52 PM

Great mod and I love the trader's hut!

Is it comptible with Better Traders? They ask for other traders mods to have mindistance set to same value otherwise it screw up spawnchances. Is there a config file for this mod? TY

 

DejFidOFF , Dec 12th 2024 at 8:55 PM

Stejer

aaah sorry for that. En is not my native. It means any of my mods not included animals from Fauna xyz :)

Stejer, Dec 12th 2024 at 8:44 PM

@DejFidOFF

Sorry, You seem to have used a double negative when you answered my previous question, wich made me a bit confused.

 

you said "No animals from Fauna xyz are not included." Do you mean that no anamal from those mods are included or that all animals are included? The use of the double negative made it sound confusing

 

thx

DejFidOFF , Dec 11th 2024 at 8:02 PM

Stejer

Hey o/. No animals from Fauna xyz are not included. Tamed Elk is included in this mod not in Wild animal trader.

Stejer, Dec 11th 2024 at 7:04 PM

Hello! I was curious if this mod also includes animals from mods of "Fauna of the Stone Age" when domesticated. I conscider it a near escential mod for my worlds and some of them can be domesticated.

 

Also is the Elk that you can ride on included in this mod or is it in the "wild animal trader" mod?

DejFidOFF , Oct 30th 2024 at 9:23 AM

Bl0ckparty

Hello o/ 
I am glad they are useful. I made them primary for my Skyblock server, but in they are also spawning just like traders in vanilla single or server world.
They use same mechanic. I saw yt video ( 100 Days in Vintage Story: Skyblock Challange ) from Oscillascape.
He uses this  Domestic animal trader mod and the trader spawn on the Welcome Mat, so itΒ΄s working.
That means every traders which I made works like that. I prepearing other two traders. One of them will be Lumberjack :)

Bl0ckparty, Oct 29th 2024 at 9:47 PM

First of all, THANK YOU SO MUCH for making your Trader mods!  I was just commenting a few videos ago that we needed them to a YouTuber (Laura's Little Worlds) who focuses on the VS Village mods.  Because if you are so focused on making settlements and ensuring your villagers don't die to predators/mobs, you don't really have the time per se to run about the landscape looking for the various Traders.  It's so much easier if they come to you!

So I have to ask, do your Traders (Mushroom, Domestic Animal, and Wild Animal) spawn just like vanilla Traders?

The reason why I ask is that I use the "Welcome Mat" from the Still Useful Stuff mod.  Essentially, the player makes a building or home that meets the requirements of a regular bed, a room with a door, a light source, and a storage item (I use vessels, but don't put them underground) with food in it.  After a certain amount of days, a Trader spawns on the mat or inside the room and the player can trade with them.  When the trader disappears (they never seem to leave the room similar to how vanilla traders don't seem to leave their wagons--unless enticed outside), some or all of the food disappears (usually about 2-3 turnips or such) and the trader leaves 1-3 (or 4) rusty gears in the storage item.

I'm thinking if your Traders (Mushroom, Domestic, Wild) spawn just like the vanilla Traders, then they may spawn for the Welcome Mat.  They would be welcome additions, along with the Kitchenware Trader from A Culinary Artillery (and Expanded Food).

DejFidOFF , Oct 14th 2024 at 1:13 PM

Linek

I have no reason for that.

Linek, Oct 13th 2024 at 4:57 PM

Will you add support for Fauna of the Stone Age mods?

Spacecowboy08p, Sep 4th 2024 at 3:27 PM

Thank you, I will try that

DejFidOFF , Sep 4th 2024 at 7:10 AM

Spacecowboy08p

you can manual edit the spawn chance. unpack zip, search for domesticanimaltraderspawn.json in domesticanimaltrader1.0.1\assets\domesticanimaltrader\patches

and change the default "chance": 0.7 to higher number try 50.

Then zip up everything again and put back to mod folder

 

Spacecowboy08p, Sep 3rd 2024 at 9:46 PM

I've added the mod to my singleplayer survival worlds and haven't found an animal trader in hours of playing. I have the 3 required mods but neither of the optional mods. Is there anything I can do on my end?

DejFidOFF , Aug 26th 2024 at 6:37 AM

prioms

Ok, I will check that

prioms, Aug 25th 2024 at 4:41 AM

shop values may need slight tweaking, found one of these traders and he was asking 8 feathers for 6 gears. seems tuned pretty high

DejFidOFF , Aug 18th 2024 at 5:43 AM

CapnCucknuckles

Yah I know the others have 0,1 but wit this settings - Try that with new map, flying 20 minutes around and no trader spawn so thatΒ΄s why I was increase the number, but hey, I will cut it to the half.

 

 

CapnCucknuckles, Aug 17th 2024 at 9:12 PM

In my case, I think its to do with the mod Bettertraders but I have not tested it a lot. Other trader mods seem to set the spawn chance to 0.1 or so and I have not had an issue with those. I hope that helps!

DejFidOFF , Aug 17th 2024 at 2:50 PM

CapnCucknuckles

Hello and thank you. I was try that in survival, and spawn was not to high. Do you suggest to adjust the spawn rate down?

 

CapnCucknuckles, Aug 16th 2024 at 10:06 PM

This is a very good mod.

Just a note for people that are not playing on the skyblock server and want to use it single player with bettertraders:

The spawn rate is way too high by default and will need to be manually adjusted or other traders will rarely, if ever spawn

DejFidOFF , Aug 13th 2024 at 3:48 PM

Oohh thank you. Nice To hear that !

Maestro_, Aug 13th 2024 at 3:44 PM

Great mod, finally allowed me to get sheep for my farm!

DejFidOFF , Aug 13th 2024 at 8:21 AM

Maestro_

Just for Aurochs. ItΒ΄s no need.

 

Maestro_, Aug 12th 2024 at 11:22 PM

Is medieval expansion 100% required, or is it just needed in case i'd like to purchase Aurochs?
