1.5 update: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3243969146

Im confused, why is the only biome this weird metal place? That's not even a thing in regular kenshi

Kenshi is my most played game of all time i would love to see this come to 1.4!

1.4?

@Sannestia Hey, just saying you appreciate the content is more than enough for me!

I still am sad that I missed out on this back in the day. =P Love your content though Rhadamant, wish I could support more but all I can do is let you know I appreciate you a ton and hope you're doing well.

@Mlie I love your work! No, I never posted it to github, but you can download the mod from https://rhadamant.com/frostandfire/ just go to the installation tab =]

@Rhadamant I could take a look at it. Is there a github-repo of the mod somewhere that I can push an update to or would it be okay to publish a continued version?

Sorry Rex705, I made this for a YouTube series, I'm a content creator not a modder, so only if someone else brings it up to date =\

Will we ever see a 1.3 update?

Any possibility of a cage beast submod?

It's missing a certain very important feature...

@Kōdo Correct

Just wondering if I'm reading it correctly, but all the Kenshi weapons and armour added can't be used by the player and are locked to the Reaper NPCs only?

Update pls

Hey guys, uploaded a mod for just the critters here: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2533235243&searchtext=frost+and+fire
(with permission)

Thanks again, Rhad, and hope everyone enjoys.

Updated to fix a bug with imperial traders

@Roskii Heiral yeah the link can be found at https://rhadamant.com

Do you guys have a discord? I may have been blind and missed it, but i don't see one.

The Kenshi fauna and Crossbows give me great hope of one day playing a Kenshi game in RimWorld.

Here's hoping we get the United Cities, Holy Nation, as well as custom bandit factions. Maybe some more robot-like Skeletons. Combined with some selectively-edited tech tree restrictions, it could be phenomenal. All that's missing is some Prison Labor updates and compatibility, a mod with the Kenshi music, and you can have a proper themed run.

Gorgeous.

Awasome mod!

bump animals

Yes I know I could but I didn't want to.

I will, absolutely get a Kenshi critters stand alone. I'll schedule some time for myself soon =]

Cool, thanks, others will be asking too, if that bothers you, update the description of the mod tellign peopel that you are workign on it, jsut my two cents, fantastic work, tahnk you

I'll work on it. I'm really stupidly busy IRL and it won't just be as easy as 'take them out and stick them in their own mod'

I know that others have asked it too the reason I'm asking also is to show him how much demand there is actually for that separate mod with the animals. So don't bother attacking me and telling me to "read the other comments" etc...

Could we get a seperate mod with only the kenshi animlas PLEASE!!!

I second what wooley said it would be cool to use some of these assets with other mods

Hi can we get a seperate mod with just the animals?

Thanks Gemi =]

Wow Nice mod!

@roskii yes someday when I am not swamped with other work =]

This looks really great, would there be any chance that you could have the animals as a stand-alone release? I'm a sucker for new alien animals in my worlds

@Aurath good luck!

Thanks @Rhadamant. The save file wasn't showing in the load section so renamed and pasted your save file over an Auto save from another play through. Seems to be working now. cant wait to get creaking.

@Aurath The save game file can be found at https://rhadamant.com/frostandfire/

Wanting a bit of help getting set up, not sure if i'm missing something as i'm kind of new to Rimworld and modding. I have downloaded the Mods and save file for F&F. When i click new colony I chose the F&F options, Randy but when i hit the map screen its random every time and I still lots of factions including hostile ones. Is this right or am I missing something? Watch all the F&F episodes up to date and really want to give it a bash myself.

@Kapali Ahh yes I need to refactor those royal quests not to draw from vanilla animals

@Rhadamant I think I phrased it incorrectly. The quest gave me chickens and roosts, and obviously, they mated. I think its because you removed vanilla animals/products that chickens laid Raptor eggs. I kept the raptors but killed all the male ones, I believe it is a challenge by itself, feeding those animals.

@Kapali

Yes, gorillos are supposed to be tamable

There might be some bugs with quests involving vanilla animals, but asking to take care of chickens and being given raptor eggs is very strange, I'll look into that.

Ah, ok

@some random skeleton Skeletons are intentionally designed never to be recruited.

Are we supposed to be able to tame gorillos? I somehow managed to tame 2 of those, and winter are much much easier for me now! Also, when I completed a destroy camp quest, map suddenly vanished so one of my pawns vanished, had to reload and dev mode to quickly finish that quest and get out of there immediately. I don't know which year I'm at now, but I think I'll finish this challenge soon. Climate change is no longer an issue for me. Crab shells are perfect material for summer clothing and as I said, GORILLO wool is perfect for winter. Oh, and another bug. Someone sent me their chickens to look after them and now I have 18 fertilized swamp raptor eggs.

i have an idea for a future feature: hacking skeletons to force them on your side if you capture one, the procedure would take a long time and will most likely result in either the skeleton going mad or an explosion if the hack fails which will be most of the time, if you do the hack successfully then you get the skeleton on your side.

@Tism Jones quite possibly in the future

Any chance we could get a version of this mod for just the content? I like the idea of adding the Kenshi animals to my game, but I'm not keen on playing the scenario, or replacing existing animals for them.

I know there are already mods for the races and equipment, but not for the animals.

@Kage

The ancient skeleton backstory is a known bug, as is the drug issues.

As for sand and water, the challenge is intended with the supplied save game file and that is how biomes are normally generated, so that's fine.

I'll look into the slaver caravans selling incorrect animals.

Additional note, you can grow the Sessile Mechanoid Trees once you've got stony soil, if you can control the temperature while also keeping the tiles where you grow the trees unroofed.

A few details I've noticed that are either bugs, or at least, unintended interactions while I was playing.

Humans can get the Ancient Skeleton backstory.
Ancient Skeletons raiders can be high on drugs.
Sand and Water can appear in this biome if you start near a shoreline.
Moisture Pumps will turn shallow water into stony soil, allowing you to grow things not normally possible, like Devilstrand.
I had a slaver caravan from the civil outlander faction selling grizzly bears and polar bears.
