FAQ
Q: How do I domesticate the animals in this pack?

A: Get a male and female adult of a given species within 10 blocks, wait until the female is ready to mate and feed her the sufficient number of portions and the male at least one. Different species require different amounts and can be found in the entity file under the multiply section. Animals can be fed either by dropping items on the ground or by using the large trough. The small trough is not supported at this time due to patching formats. Each species diet can be found in this mod's description or in their entity file under the diet section. After 10 generations, entities stop attacking the player and after 10 generations they will no longer flee the player. Only the mother's generation matters for progressing generations.


Q: Why so many animal packs? Can't you make one giant one?

A: The combined size of this series exceeds the Mod data base's file upload size limit and therefore could not be hosted on this site, making it extremely difficult for servers to use. What's more, I don't know just how large certain clade file sizes will get as new features come out and I want to ensure they don't need to be split in the future, as that may cause considerable server issues. Whenever mod packs are implemented, or if there are other resources for creating a more organized bundle, I will do so.



Q: Is this mod safe to add and remove to an existing world?

A: Yes, this mod series is safe to add and remove. Items from this mod that have been placed will be invisible or appear as question blocks if the mod is removed but can be safely broken.

I answered B0YAR's question in one of the 16 other places they posted it, but to answer it here I have had too many compatibility requests to reasonably do and will be focusing on completing my projects before focusing on compatibility. I believe Butchery is already compatible, just without unique art assets. 
As for the two mods, I try to group my mods close to the Family level, though not exclusively. Turtles are one group where I'm undecided on how many families I'll try to make by the end of my project, and if I do a large number of them the mod size might exceed the upload limit if I'd bundled them all into a single Turtle+ Stem-Turtle pack Arthopleura

💬 Arthopleura, Jun 7th at 4:39 PM

I also would like it if you where adding compatibility with butchering yourself.

Also, why did you made 2 different mods for turtle instead of only one ?

💬 B0YAR, May 28th at 3:45 PM

Tentharchitect

Please add compatibility with Butchering mod. We love hunt on this creatures and cook them! Yammy!

💬 Tentharchitect , May 14th at 3:02 AM

Commissions are currently closed until my summer job is over in September. I'll be posting in my Author description when there are slots open.

💬 Figglewin, May 14th at 1:44 AM

Tentharchitect Are you accepting commissions? I'd love to commission a shark mod

💬 Tentharchitect , Feb 16th at 11:49 PM

I've considered adding more derived products but found the process of modding them pretty uninteresting, I much prefer making new animals than spending time on new items. That said, I'm hopeful that other folks make add-on mods for my animal's products

💬 Ixon, Feb 16th at 9:45 PM

could you add in the ability to break turtle shells to use their scoots for tools or use the turtle shell for other early game crafts?

💬 Tentharchitect , Feb 16th at 6:03 PM

No plans for sharks unless I get a commission for them. Crocodiles, alligators and gharials are on the list, as are hippos BadCake

💬 BadCake, Feb 16th at 5:52 AM

any plans to add sharks at somepoint? or some other aquatic predators? crocodiles maybe

💬 Yelb, Feb 3rd at 3:10 PM
