About this project

What does Nomad Tamers add?

Nomad Tamer A simple mod that expands the base game's mount and pet catalog with new tamed creatures, using the exact same taming method from vanilla—no fancy mechanics or overhauls, just more beasts to ride, follow, and explore with!

What's New:

  • 13 New Mounts: Antelope, Armadillo, Bison, Doe, Stag, Sand Lizard, Bull Moose, Cow Moose, Tortoise, Trillodon, Warthog, and Flamingo—each with unique JSON configs for an authentic base-game feel.
  • 1 New Pet: Raton (tameable companion like vanilla rabbits—does not follow you automatically unless you hold its favorite food (Cheese), just like rabbits follow carrots).

Vanilla Taming with Specific Foods:

Creature Taming Food Type Follows with Food?
Antelope Flower Common Purple Mount Yes (holds Flower Common Purple)
Armadillo Egg Mount Yes (holds Egg)
Bison Cauliflower Mount Yes (holds Cauliflower)
Deer (Doe/Stag) Berries Red Mount Yes (holds Berries Red)
Sand Lizard Ingredient Chitin Sturdy Mount Yes (holds Ingredient Chitin Sturdy)
Moose (Bull/Cow) Pinecone Mount Yes (holds Pinecone)
Tortoise Lettuce Mount Yes (holds Lettuce)
Trillodon Pumpkin Mount Yes (holds Pumpkin)
Warthog Onion Mount Yes (holds Onion)
Flamingo Fish Raw Mount Yes (holds Fish Raw)
Raton Cheese Pet Yes (holds Cheese)

Note on Foods & Particles: These are the current taming items. I’ve already added immersive particle effects (Want_Food_*.particlesystem files) to visually show what each animal wants to eat—making taming more intuitive and satisfying! More refinements and new particles coming in future updates.

Nomad Vibes: Perfect for wandering tamers building herds and collecting loyal pets across biomes.

(Ready-to-install JSONs and particle files included. Compatible with Update 3!) 🐾🌍
