making forest wyvern tameable
Hey there! I'm curious if anybody could help. I've searched all over the web, through the workshop, and am at a loss... Oddly, the most epic and amazing dino, the Forest Wyvern, in all its speedy glory and powerfulness, seems to be a victim of neglect. I hesitated for a long while to even make this post, due to the fact that i couldnt imagine this to even be an issue.

But alas, I have reached a point of pulling my hair out, and need some help! After searching through mod after mod, I'm convinced that no mod actually allows you to place "Tameable" forest wyverns in your game. This is devastating, to say the least. I got pampered on an old server that allowed you to track down forest wyverns, tranqing them, and taming them. This allowed for that wonderful taming bonus that really boosted your dino's levels.

Ive tried all the mods i could find, but I have a feeling that some of the "failed" mods are my wrong doing. I dont actually have the slightest clue as to what im doing, other than mashing that "subscribe" button, then launching the game and making the mod active before entering the map. Thats where I hope ya'll can assist!

Ive come to the realization that i should go to the core of the matter, if at all possible. That means, that i would need to learn how to use the game files (ini and config are some common words thrown around, that i have zero idea what those are) to turn that annoying red "untameable" tag in my spyglass from the "awesome spyglass" mod, to tameable. Any and ALL help and info on this matter is greatly appreciated. If it cant be done with game files, but only mods, then any info on how to start modding is also appreciated. Im at a point of frustration at how difficult this is, that im gearing up for battle, and will go through war before i give up now lol. If i have to learn how to mod just for this one singular thing, thats what i want to do.

Currently, on Ragnarok:

Simple Spawners Mod would let me set spawn points for the forest wyvern, but for some reason, the moment they spawned in, their health would slowly decrease, until they died. And of course, not tameable still.

I tried adding forest wyvern remastered, then i set up a new simple spawner and the same result, the wyvern slowly died and not tameable

Ive looked into the no untameables, but the best i could find is in the guide link, it says that forest wyverns are in the "extras" but cant find that at all.

Apologies for the long winded post, but i would love to hear some long winded responses xD Im after details, advice and anything else i can use to finally have a way to place the glorious forest wyvern on whatever map i choose, that can be tamed.

thank you in advance!

Hey man, when placing the simple spawners, use the 'Custom Spawner' and give it this code:

blueprint'/game/mods/ForestWyvernRemastered/ForestWyvern_character_bp.ForestWyvern_character_bP'


If you place them via the wyvern spawner or extinction spawner, you will get vanilla forest wyvern (which is a minion-type creature for a boss fight - that's why their health decreases:)

But to be fair i'm pretty sure the remastered wyvern spawns on ragnarok without needing simple spawners

Hey Plunders! Cheers for the response, and the great info. Interesting bit about the remastered wyvern spawning too.... I suppose the spawn points are randomized across the map? If so, would they be in certain biomes or just anywhere?

Thanks again, bud! I'm heading into the game now to try out that custom thing xD

Ok, tried that blueprint, worked like a charm! Thanks again for that, was awesome to get to mess with forest wyverns again......just curious, was that code from the remastered mod? only asking to see about a "tameable" rock drake version as well... would be cool to see that xD
