7cyns Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 is there a way/mod/edit to reduce or eliminate wolves? particularly th large wolves? older fella here and i play an odd game. no zombies. i go to cities and clean them up. get th trash off th streets, repair buildings, replace windows, manicure th lawns, plant trees. i found valmod (for th weed wacker) and started fixin sinks and ovens and replacing lights and excited about painting in th new build, but havin a lil trouble as i keep gettin my ass handed to me by wolves. i know this isn't th spirit of th game, but i'm playin it this way to relax and IMHO th repeated deaths are not as relaxing as one would think. so how would i go about reducing wolf spawn or eliminating it all together?

Zourin Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 Should be able to tweak the Spawning.xml file for that. Not sometihing i dive into really, but if it can be done, it should be there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miller3870 Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 In the spawning file like Zourin said, they are listed as hostileanimals and you need to edit their spawns for each biome to change them. Also in the entity files you can edit their speed/health, and under the item file you can edit their attack damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psychodabble Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 I think entitygroups.xml is the easiest way to do this. You don't need to touch any other files. Do a word find for "wolf" and just remove the entities from the relevant groups. That way you don't screw up any other spawns and you get no wolves. If you need help editing your xml, let me know and I can walk you through it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
themirror Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 Day 35. Survived every single horde, survived the dog+zombie bear hordes. Died from wolf horde, barely survived another wolf horde 1 day later while farming... wolfs scare me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
datnopers Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 That sounds like an extremely awesome way to play the game. I would have never thought to play like this, and now I'm going to have to try. I'm sorry I have no answer for your original question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viktoriusiii Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 I think your way to explain and the way you play are totally adorable and I could really play that in a multiplayer game Thanks for giving me the idea... and as someone said, probably in a xml file... but im not at home so I cant look it up sorry :-/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sedlina Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 Can't wait till we get the Zombie Variants of them. It may be 3 years into different Alpha stages but it never hurts to leave the reminder for the different kickstarter stretchgoals. 350.000,- mountain lions, coyotes, cats ... All animals can turn into zombies too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OMG, you play exactly the way my dad plays! Each evening after work he would clean up his town bit by bit. If I can get a screenshot for you from his computer I will send it to you. He has made a once derelict town into what he calls his Eden. Its beautiful now with rows of flowers on the sidewalks, rows of trees, green lawns etc. I think its way adorable! Keep it up.

7cyns Posted July 8, 2017 Author Share Posted July 8, 2017 so...a new issue i have no critters at all. no chickens, rabbits, deer, pigs, etc somehow i have stopped th spawn of any and all animals, zombie, enemy, or not what do i do now? i know i can live off of canned food, but rather not ps - edited my xml and added valmod's b129 mod. can't say that i'm a fan, but th hunger and thirst bars help, as does th working sinks and ovens - - - Updated - - - ps - i've dropped th "invisible animal" line from th xml and boosted th stag spawn from .04 to .09, dropped vultures, wolves, and direwolves completely. what else should i do to spawn critters?

Swiftpaw Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 My Friendly Animals mod makes coyotes, wolves, dire wolves, bears, and mountain lions fight zombies with you so you don't have to worry about them attacking you. ^n.n^ https://7daystodie.com/forums/showthread.php?87514-MOD-Friendly-Animals-Friendly-animals-united-against-the-zombie-hordes!

unclevlad Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 Every time an alpha is released, I am grateful TFP has not added lava. As for the OP, that is what I would do when I needed a break from the regular game. I think it was Alpha 16 when I had completely made over Navazgane, well as much as I could. Even replaced all the roads with flagstone. It is relaxing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
