All of the adult birds can be fed in order to get them to place nests. These nests count as entities and can be broken, dropping eggs. While the eggs are in item form they will slowly rot, but can be used for incredibly satiating meals. While on the ground, they slowly grow and will eventually hatch into baby birds.
Features:
All species have a unique pelt that can be used to craft hide, feathers and a taxidermied full body.
Occasionally a fly covered giant moa carcass will spawn, blocking giant moa spawns in the area. They have a chance to spawn when first arriving in an area or when all giant moa have been killed off from the area, allowing players to locally wipe out giant moa. Destroying the carcass of the respective type will allow more giant moa to spawn again and some carnivores and scavengers may destroy them as well, so if you want giant moa spawns prevented in an area protect these carcasses.
All the animals in this mod have a strict population cap and will only spawn on runtime, not world gen. This is also to make the mod more server friendly so as to not add an overwhelming number of entities.
And a big thanks to everyone who gave feedback and assistance!
awesome mod! love it in SP, however, on my server the creatures themselves will not spawn, but the nests will, I found this in the log:
That might be why the update didn't work for Delyria (on the same server as her) if that's the case. We were using the version compatible with 1.19.8
It is not
Is your most recent update compatible with 1.19.8?
Dang, I'll look into it more on my next modding day, but if you could give it a try with only this mod enabled on a separate file it would be appreciated. Might just be a weird interaction or remnant due to the initial bug interacting with butchery
The Goose strikes Back! Still crashing when mousing over deed geese... it may have been the first thing I tried when I logged in :D
Thank you so much for saying that, you really made my day!
Looks like I missed some of the Anatidae decay into models, that's probably what's causing this. Will have an update momentarily! Do you mind removing the crash log for the chat here?
I absolutely love this. I may have burst into tears when I hear the kiwi whistle (I'm an expat, left NZ a long time ago). I'd share the clip from stream, but dont wanna self promo. The kakapo are adorable, and you got the takahe colours perfect!
I did encounter Revenge of the Goose though. Not sure if its this, or the butchery mod, but every time I mouse over a dead goose, it crashes to desktop.
edit: Removed crash log. Thank you! <3
Glad you're enjoying the Kakapo! Sadly no fairy penguins until I get around to making the penguin pack
The Kakapo is so freaking cute! I was hoping for a Little Blue Fairy Penguin, but holy cow the Kakapo!!!!!
For French players ;)
Pour les joueurs impatients, voici la traduction de la v0.8.0 (fr.json)
EDIT: maj pour la v1.0.0 : fr.json
Not well at least. The flight pathfinding is a little rough at times so I stuck with flightless or near flightless birds. Of the flying wrens they only fly low to the ground in real life so this is represented with an animation of them flying, but still pathfinding on the ground
the small birds cannot fly?
And coming through here
I believe FotSA is compatible with Culinary Artillery, but I haven't made unique egg shells or made compatibilities with all the eggs to work with those recipes. The eggs are edible as is.
I'm keeping an eye out for a way of making the wren chirp less harsh, unfortunately they start very high pitch and VS adds some random pitch shifting to entity audio, making it so some of the calls are overly high pitch. Might need to just change their sounds to something unnaturally deep for them.
And yep, as Laerinok pointed out, bundling all my mods would potentially create major issues and it'd likely be updated less frequently than the modular versions, creating more issues.
Thanks all for the support!
Hello Laerinok, thank you for your answer I really appreciate it. Sad to hear that but great work!
Garanto
Hello,
He just answered the same question a few hours ago here.
No it isn't ;)
@Tentharchitect Hey there man. You are the legend! Is there any possibility to create one big mod for you named "Stone age" where you would have all your mods mixed? I think it would be one of the best mods for Vintage Story ever including that fact that is perfectly matches the game.
So the eggs you get from nests, are they edible? Can I crack them into bowls/buckets for egg yolk from the Expanded Foods/Culinary Artillery mods?
Thank you.
Love the mod, but I'm curious if there is a way to turn down the high pitched chirping of the Lyall's Wren? Where I am they are everywhere, and my ears can't handle the constant high-pitched chirping. I would love to keep the mod installed so being able to turn down or off that noise would be great.
Are any of the Stone Age Fauna mods compatible with the Culinary Artillery mod?
You can indeed gndrneutralnoun
Feeding them will cause them to create a nest when ready to breed, which will then generate chicks once it matures (via the same method as bells generating drifters)
However, if you are planning on travelling you might be better served by breaking an incubating nest and placing the dropped eggs. This fewer number of eggs will age into chicks, which will happen whether or not the entity is loaded in
Is there any way to farm kakapos and/or encourage them to lay eggs? I think they're absolutely adorable and ideal friend material, thank you for introducing me to their existence. I wish to feed and be friends with them.
The tiny, rapid kiwi feet are absolute perfection. You did a great job on them! 😁

You've about made my weekend now.
OPERATION KIWI SANCTUARY IS A GO, I REPEAT: OPERATION KIWI SANCTUARY IS A GO
Thank you for saying so OscarK, getting to represent folks homes in the vintage story world is part of my dream!
And now I've added Kiwi too CKitt! 😀
cannot express how much I adore this mod. Am from Aotearoa and have loved having some semblance of home in worlds
You added wrens! 😁
Yep, all the animals I've made a breedable, though some aren't as efficient due to high food costs, long gestation time and such
@Tentharchitect Can you breed the giant moa? I would love to have them as farm animals :D
Thanks grunge_forever, glad you're enjoying the taxidermy system!
As for pre-Holocene animals, I did a multi-year modding project on them for another game, so I'd rather leave that to other modders. I believe there are now five folks who are working on dinosaurs, but I don't know if or when they will be released
Tentharchitect
Hey! I'm loving the mods alot, I'm just wondering if you'd ever do a release for more dinosaur-age creatures? Maybe a pterasaur pack, or a sauropod pack.
PS. I think with your extinction feature its really cool that players can make taxidermy museums of ALL KINDS of animals, potentially extinct. The player thinks "Wow, this was an amazing beast. Shame I killed them all off, but atleast i have this AWESOME stuffed version as a reminder of what once was. Really adds a depth of history to a well-played world that i think is painfully missing in vanilla VS.
Holy fuck, The Moa. That's great
Finnally the giant moa is in a game i play
Hey Stejer
Glad to hear you're enjoying the mods and excited about the future mods as well! All of the animals you listed will come in future packs eventually, there are some features I'm waiting for 1.20 to release before making like the riding, animated part limit increase and water/land ai task attributes.
Can't recall if I've told you specifically but the way I'm doing it now is making 2 animal packs for every Floral Zone mod released, trying to keep them in theme with each other. So this one goes with the Neozeylandic pack since it represents the native birds there. I was originally going to do penguins as the second, but since learning 1.20 was still a ways out, I'll be doing an animal pack from the next floral region penguins could work with, the Chile-Patagonian Region, and doing penguins with that one if 1.20 is out by then.
No promises on any other packs, but the upcoming Floral Zones are Mediterranean, Circumboreal, Maleasian, Chile-Patagonian and Usambara-Zululand. That should give you an idea of what might be arriving and when.
Hello! Since you seem to be focussing a lot in australian species these days how about a mod that adds both the modern day marsupials like the kangoroo but also the extinct one like the thillocene (you could make so he has fear of sheep since the was extinct cuz farmers thought they were killing the sheep and plsss make them domesticable)
Id also like a mod cammels, alpacas etc (as you said before you seem to not be very good with riding programs wich would be essential for those but it would be awsome)
love your mods!
ps: elephants and hippos would be cool as well like a mod with africa most dangerous animals
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey Stejer!
They have a different diet than chickens, fruit, vegetables, nibble crops and berry bushes. You can see the diets of my animals in the stats tab on the mod description for future reference!
is their feed the same of chikens?
RobertS42 For consistency's sake I'm using it as an easy way of generating a unique mod ID and having them as families is almost guaranteed to be unique. I suppose it should be Dinornithiformes and Flightless Birds of New Zealand Except Penguins, but that'd be a pain to have in the files. Might just switch it to Dinornithiformesplus
This is probably not my place to say this, but it maybe better to rename the pack to something more akin to "Aves of New Zealand" rather than Dinornithidae? That would be a bit more descriptive since only the Kiwi would be in the same infra-class. And even then it would only be very distantly related.
Releasing the bird families as they finish, feed back would be most welcome especially around their breeding. It's something that takes quite a while to test so if folks are willing to test that while I'm working on the next family of birds it'll greatly speed up development.
