Rust & Rot 0.0.7.zip
1-click install
Combined the retired Rust Creatures with Rot Creatures to bring new enemies inspired from the Rot and The Rust World!
Rotten Creatures:
Rot Walkers: Its eyes, once windows to a soul, now gleam with an unnatural, sickly glow, devoid of humanity or compassion.
Rot Beasts: In the case of beasts, it led to these wandering monstrosities. Once ordinary animals, they now embody corruption, emitting a foul stench and spreading disease.
Rot Pillars: Living columns of putrefaction, driven by an insatiable urge to spread the blight that birthed it. A fate worse than death.
Miasma: The surrounding air is thick with the stench of decay and the buzzing of parasitic flies, drawn to the festering wounds and the promise of new life within.
Rusted Creatures:
Itinerant: Metallic wanderers, their bodies encased in remnants of ancient metal.
Golem: Ancient constructs gathered from years of travel. Formidable protectors of roamers in times of need.
Roamer: Travelers by nature, scavengers for need, they scuttle among rusted ruins, salvaging scraps and artifacts left behind by their towering predecessor
Double-headed drifters: Now metallic walking prisons for forgotten seraphs who fell victim to their power.
Will soon be adding some loot items and weapons to make killing these creatures more useful.
Thank you so much for your words and specially your feedback on Rot Creatures and Rust Creatures, used it to tweak this mod and hopefully make it playable this time. Still, though, I haven't playtested it much, so any request to tweak values like health, damage, speed of creatures or spawn rates and would be greatly appreciated.
Still not very experienced with mods so also looking for the help of someone more knowledgeable on coding VS mods than me, if anyone's interested.

Idk if this has already been mentioned before but I've noticed that the crawling double headed drifters are lacking textures.
I love this mod, it adds so much welcome variation (and easy rot gathering), but does anyone know what the drifter glands are for? I haven't found a purpose for them, or the sludge you can press out of them. Thank you.
Phoenicius Yes, it appears both by itself, with outlaw and decaying creatures mod. Thank you for following up! I will try to downgrade to 0.0.4!
I wonder if it has something to do with crawling drifters being disabled at 0.0.5 and above.
Phoenicius
Thanks. Unfortunately I've already created a mod ages ago between rust and rot / outlaws. Just not VS villagers but. Made the villages quite rare to avoid this problem on my server.
Following up the previous comment, it does in fact seem that Rust and Rot is causing all of this lag and these errors. I removed it and was able to fly around my world for several minutes without hitting a lagspike once. Normally, I'd get them every 10 seconds or so.
Furthemore, the errors that Quiche posted are no longer being generated in my console. Didn't appear once.
I still need to test RnR by itself to see if it's actually a problem with just the mod itself, or if it's caused by other mods used in conjunction with RnR.
EDIT: It does in fact seem to be Rust and Rot by itself that causes this issue. I made a new world with just RnR and the errors appear in the log several times.
EDIT2: Tried it with version 0.0.4 of RnR, and flew around the world without issues. No errors generated in the console. I also added all of my mods back in, flew around some more, and still no errors!
IF YOU'RE GETTING THIS ERROR: Try Downgrading your Rust and Rot to Version 0.0.4!
Yup! Getting the same errors! No crashes yet, luckily. But I'm getting the same errors. Are you running any other creatures mods as well? Maybe FotSA, or Outlaws? Or Entities Config or Biomes maybe?
I'm just trying to see if there's other mods causing this to happen whilst Rust and Rot is loaded. Or have you confirmed that these errors don't appear if RnR isn't loaded?
Quiche
Got a funky little console error everytime Rust and Rot is loaded in and sometimes results in crashing or lag.

I've begun work on a compatibility patch for Rust and Rot, VS Village, and Outlaws.
See the draft here, if you're interested:
RustAndRot, Outlaws and VS Village Compatibility patch - Vintage Story Mod DB
Noticing some strange behavior with Outlaws mod:
The mobs from R&R don't seek out and attack the Outlaws.
EDIT: Upon further investigation it appears to be a syntax error in the patch files. In the `value` array, `bandit-` is missing the asterisk.
I added the asterisk, so now the `value` array looks like:
"code": "floatupwhenstuck",
"onlyWhenDead": true
}
This appears to be the case. Setting it to index 9 results in the Golems attacking the Outlaws as expected.
Seconding for compatibility with VSVillagers
Since Rust&Rot ignore VSvillagers
Could i ask for compatibility between the mods?
Is there any way to toggle off Rot creatures? i just want the cool looking rust
Great mod, I think the spawnrate is too high, and would be great if they spawn only near the rifts
Love these mods, adds so many cool creatures and makes the game so much spookier. Though I do have a question, is it possible to edit the spawn values so they aren't so common to spawn? I find a lot of the new creatures on the surface in daylight often. And it can kind of take away the excitement of bumping into new enemies.
Ps, First time modding vintage to this extent, so I am a bit blind going into this
Double-headed-drifter no longer seems to drop jonasframes?
Fakegucci What mods are you using? I can't seem to replicate this
Drifters ignore me when this mod is loaded ):
RedPandemic Compatibility added :) let me know how it goes!
Marlim I might do it later one, I dabbled with making new drifters during the Rust Creatures era but I ended up making a bit of a mess with it so I'm a bit skeptical about trying it again lol
DemiRemi I'm pretty sure the rotted moose is part of Decaying Creatures by Kanahaku, unless you're referring to something else?
based mod
Is there a way to tune the difficulty or change which mobs spawn early? I'm on day 3 and there's a rotted moose camping my base. Nothing I can do.
Hi, I have translated the mod into german. (updated version)
de.json
I loved the new creatures, the models are amazing and you're doing a great job. What do you think of the idea of turning your larger alternate Drifter models into much rarer versions of the smaller, more common Drifters? This way you wouldn't need to replace the vanilla Drifters. Just a suggestion from someone who loved this mod.
Darce
Hello there,
Me and the boys been really enjoying the new model and enemy varieties. It makes the world feel more unsettled and that kinda fits the history of VS.
Although would you be able to reduce the surface drifter (weakest ones) model size to about 75% of what they currently are? This includes their crawling variant. Stovesforlife, prior user, commented on this and I agree.
They feel just a tad too big to represent their tier 0 stats and threat level 😅
Something else I noticed is the crawlers model size is a bit misalligned with their actual hitbox.
Thanks for serving fresh content to the community!
P.S Just noticed the new update 30ish minutes ago, thanks for the change!
Nice to see this back up, now I just need to actually work up the courage to install it : P
Is it possible to establish some mod compatability with Grifthegnome's Outlaw Mod? AI seem to ignore each other.
Also love the mod so far; it adds a lot of enemy variety and a solid reason to wanna fence in our garden. Forever.
They may be a little large, but they should be at least the size of the player. Otherwise your fighting a child who needs a shower, or an angry incredible hulk wielding a comically large spoon and a plus-sized baguette. Balance 👍
RedPandemic this mod already includes those models and they've been tweaked a bit so there's no need
Are we good to use this with your Drifter's mod?
GVLT For now they are. Which ones would you prefer to be smaller? I was thinking of sizing down the surface ones. And yeah I agree, the corrupted one was the one i spent the least time thinking about, I'll sketch something and see if it's more adequate. Thanks for your input!!
Are drifters still goofy big like in Rust Creatures Lite? I suggest making them smaller. Especially corrupted ones. When making game art one should think about not only the rule of cool, but about communications of the rules with the player. Right now corrupted drifters are looking more dangerous than nightmare ones.
