@Sroka yeah it works if the player is the captor, and the captor changes to the owner of the cage.

So is it only working on player build cages and neutral cages? I'm wondering because previously I recruited some Bonedogs in Bast. But now I'm trying to recruit bull and I tried to use cages in Flotsam Village and it doesn't work.

"No animals were harmed in the making of this mod". love it

So does this work on Crabs too?

Can't tame bonedog, any solution??

I tried to tame Gorillos (Specifically) the dark ones but they never want to talk or anything, did this happened to somebody more or it's just me?

im super late but ty for the links i thought i looked every where

Where can I find Robopacks?

@REZisWatching Yeah I made one a while ago as @Landbatman said.

Do the animals you can't normally buy have portraits? I tamed a Gorrillo but their portrait was empty. Later I tamed a Crab and they had a portrait, I am guessing it's because they are default pets we can purchase

REZisWatching, a compatibility patch/mod for Radiant Animals already exists on the workshop, here the link!
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2741341494

So Im using Radiant New Animal Subspecies, and i don't think its compatible> do you think it would be possible to make a patch for it? Id love to tame the variant Gorillos :( Sorry because i know im asking for more work, but thank you for taking the time to read.

i dont see a talk option when i put a creature in the cage... how does this work?

In case anyone is interested, i've made 2 patches for other popular mods:
Kaizo - TameBeasties Patch:

TameBeasties - Travelling, Talking Civilians Patch (more crabs and some dogs):

To answer some comments below:
- yes, you can tame Iron Spiders
- yes, you can tame blood spiders
- it works on megacrab
- for unknown reason, it works on some broken skeletons, who are not beasts.
- it works on every vanilla animal, but it'll not work for vanilla animals in squads, added by other mods, like Kaizo. That's why you'll need patches.
- if you really want to be a beastmaster with a lot of animals in your faction, consider using "no animal hunger" mod, or at least "Grazing" mod, it'll save you a lot of micromanagement.

so i can tame blood spider now ??

is there a wiki to what garru eat

I wonder if it works on Megacrab

Question.

Can I use this mod to tame Iron Spiders?

bro, make this mode "tamed animals salable to nomads."

A good companion mod would be "Prisoner Cages Now!", another would be "Less Hungry Beasties" so they consume less of your food, or a mod to remove beast hunger entirely, roleplay it as they're eating plants or corpses depending on the beast. A lot of people seem to have trouble with this mod suddenly breaking, this mod can under the right circumstances allow you to recruit an animal from any prisoner cage, but you need it to be a cage in your own outpost. With the mod mentioned, grab yourself a ton of iron plates so you can tame on the go. Odds are many of you were trying prisoner cages other than your own, saw success, then it stopped working. I was in that same camp.

If animals can carry bags (like pack beasts), they will feed themselves from it. Otherwise, keep your meat storage indoors, or they'll eat all your meat supplies.

Place feeding troughs close to where animals roam for easy feeding. When building a new base, I recommend two animal areas: one safe space (like a building with a feeding trough) to keep them secure, and another near your main gate. This second area acts as a buffer so defensive animals can fight off enemies if the gate is breached.

For recruiting modded animals, you might be able to edit them using the Forgotten Construction Set (FCS). Perhaps someone with experience can provide more guidance on this.

not me using this to recruit the king gorillo and all other overpowered animals

Forgot to mention just how difficult it is to recruit those who've just attacked me as the Things will eat them even in a prisoner cage....haha its crazy how much they eat and where the heck do they put it? it's not in their bellies, sure as heck ain't increasing their stats.

This mod is interesting in concept, but fails to meet expectation. I have tamed two Things and all day everyday, they eat an abundance of corpses. if they're not at the food trough I have left outside the gate for them, loaded with rancid meat, they are at recently harpooned corpse, picking it clean. Yet, they are always going hungry. I have them outside the gate, otherwise, they will pick my meat storage clean. Why the heck do they target my humanoid's meat storage rather than the obvious animal trough? Why are they always eating and always going hungry?

i works for me, I just captured king again

doesnt seem to work with king, maybe the newest kenshi update ruin it?

this mod is not working for me for some reason, i tried everything ..

How I can tame a cleanser unit?

I cant seem to recruit animals, only loot them

I actually added mutt recruit dialog to skeleton raid spiders and it worked) Tnx for idea!

Didnt worked for Silver wolf or Iron spiders. :(

this mod broken already

Can't recruit bonedogs :<

Can't pick up large animals either, any possible fixes or known bugs?

I cant pick up animals for some reason

So... with this mod i can capture the Southern Hive King?

Can't get this to work on skin spiders. Great mod though thanks for making it. Could it be the changes UWE makes to the spiders that breaks this mod?

I'm having an issue with not being able to recruit Beak Things that are 'Elder'-aged. Not a different species of "Elder Beak Thing" nor "Great Beak Thing"(a different mod). Is this by design or is this some bug I'm getting? Thanks so much for my favorite mod bar none and for any help here!

So the mod works but the amount of Food these beast take is simply too much. 5x hunger rates for a best that tends to get stuck when traveling. It's too bad, I liked my king Gorillo pet. Oh well.

my animals always keep getting stuck when followin me

do i need to start a new game to use this mod or can i subscribe and pick back up on my recent last save?

Vanilla Bone dog can no longer be recruited, and Food bag doesn't fit on Beak things... Beak things also seem to eat 100x the usual amount of food and even when eating bodies, they dont gain any hunger, they just clean up bodies.

The food issue however has become a near if not currently definite game ender for my recent playthrough, to the point I have made endless amounts of dried meat, cooked yellow meat, and so much more, and the stupid things still are never full. Idk if its something to do with this mod or what but thought I'd mention it regardless. They also take food automatically out of your peoples inventories, which is why it is so detrimental and bad. (Even when I have the option for them doing so set to off).

Vanilla bonedog is in the prisoner cage but when i look at the options I cant talk to it, i know its awake cause when i do the set free option it books it for the gates lmao

does this work on leviathans??

For those who can't talk to a caged animal, the animal has to be awake. Let it heal enough to wake up. You can bandage animals that are in cages before recruiting them. Don't loot them, that kills them.

Do i need to import or is it safe to load it on a save?

They all fit.

I've not played for 4 years so I'm very rusty at the game.
However, I've got this MOD and I was wondering as to how you go about taming a large, adult beast that won't fit into the prisoner cages?
Like those Beak Things or possibly the large crabs found in the Howler Maze area?
And by "finding" an unconscious beast. I'm assuming if you've OK'ed one yourself, that'd still work?

@$DRCO - Sorry if I didnt link you right .. I dont respond much on the comments. If the bag doesnt fit the Gorrilo then make sure you have food in your bag, if in a party, or an animal feeder if keeping at base or there is another animal bags mod that has bags for every animal... I cant remember which one at the moment. I was trying to look through this mod to see why I can never tame Alpha Dogs

How can I feed the great white gorilo?
