- unlikely, but try it and see what happens.

Quick question, is this mod still viable for the current version of the game if I want just the Chocobo's?

Wark!

@Erin My pleasure, I know you will do a good job. Again thank you for all you've done for the RimWorld community (and hopefully soon™ the DF community). :Khappy:
Erin  [author] 8 Dec, 2022 @ 6:31am 
@Ole Hockey Thighs - aww it wasn't a troll! I legit didn't realise how moddable DF is until my friend (who's played it for 10+ years) explained it. <3

Thank you for the kind words though!!
Ole Hockey Thighs 8 Dec, 2022 @ 6:15am 
@Erin You know what will happen if I discover you are lying to me? Nothing for 2 reasons ::

1) I respect the troll and can laugh at the situation.
2) You made this mod which in of itself has earned my gratitude so many times pretty much nothing you could do would effect my respect for you negatively. Not to mention how responsive you are on here. 10/10 mod dev. :winter2019happyyul:
Erin  [author] 8 Dec, 2022 @ 5:14am 
@Ole Hockey Thighs - So about that. My friend may or may not be helping me with chocobos in DF.... :)

@Ole Hockey Thighs - Nothing, because I won't be modding DF

What would one have to do to get you to mod chocobos into Dwarf Fortress? :lunar2019piginablanket:
ElTwoFour 31 Oct, 2022 @ 4:56pm 
Ah! Ok thank you!
Erin  [author] 31 Oct, 2022 @ 3:52pm 
They've been updated to 1.4 and merged into a general FFXIV Animals mod.
ElTwoFour 31 Oct, 2022 @ 3:36pm 
I hope this isn't a bother to ask, but is this going to be updated to 1.4? Would love to use it. Thanks for all your work!
Erin  [author] 22 Oct, 2022 @ 3:32pm 
@Thundercraft - If you had looked at FF Animals, you'd see there's mod options to toggle each animal.
Thundercraft 22 Oct, 2022 @ 3:16pm 
Q: Is this going to get updated for 1.4? Or will the only way to have Chocobos in 1.4 be to subscribe to the "Erin's Final Fantasy Animals" and have all the animals?

Very cute mod, they seem to work fine with CE from what I've tested.

Erin  [author] 18 Aug, 2022 @ 11:07am 
Yeah.

Also for the one asking, I'll push a patch later if I remember :)

Fair enough. Personally I never even noticed because I just don't fool with genetics, it's... It's a little overwhelming and feels like something I'll eventually get into someday as sort of post-game content when I've completed my run.
Erin  [author] 18 Aug, 2022 @ 1:38am 
I'm part of the VE team, I know they're kind of a big deal lol.

I'll look into a patch but I make no promises, and it will ONLY be to .ake them drop avian genes. I'm not creating some sort of wacky hybrids.
👁 17 Aug, 2022 @ 4:24pm 
I never really fool with the genetics stuff myself. It's in there but I'm always like "Nope"
👁 17 Aug, 2022 @ 4:23pm 
The Vanilla Expanded mods are kind of like unofficial expansion packs though, they're kind of a big deal.
Erin  [author] 17 Aug, 2022 @ 3:19pm 
@ParasiticSquid - making them drop the correct gene would probably be a simple patch, but since you're like "but they won't fit in the playthrough waaahh!" Then it ruins my motivation to even bother writing a patch.
👁 17 Aug, 2022 @ 2:26pm 
Alpha Animals adds these birds called Ave that are essentially Chocobo.
Vanilla Achievements Expanded even has an Achievement for if you tame one, called "Not a Chocobo" and it says "Wark?"

It's Vanilla Genetics Expanded compatible. I love Chocobo but if you want to Genome Tinker with them you could do it with an Ave it's basically a Chocobo.
ParasiticSquid 17 Aug, 2022 @ 11:11am 
Understandable but still unfortunate missed opportunity. So they can't have avian genes extracted? If so that's.. odd for obvious reasons. Ill try it but ill have to remove it if they can't since makes no sense in a genetics expanded playthrough otherwise
Erin  [author] 17 Aug, 2022 @ 12:55am 
I'm not doing generic expanded compatibility
ParasiticSquid 16 Aug, 2022 @ 5:44pm 
So.. do these have vanilla genetics expanded compat so I can extract avian genomes from them? Also if you ever feel in the mood to add too the genetic abominations of genetics expanded imagine this: Chocobo hybrid genetic abominations.

For example: Chocobo/thrumbo, chocobo/bee, chocobo/frickin t-rex, or chocobo/literal eldrtich horror from beyond the stars. Just a bunch of bird hybrids that look like mutated chocobos that specialize in caravan usage like equine and muffalo hybrids but are more capable of combat. I for one would ride a giant feathered t-rex with a beak into battle

love it :D

:D They're amazing battle mounts because they're so crazy fast.

My Chocobo won't fight when trained and set to follow and fight while drafted for some reason.

I love them though, they's so fast and super helpful.

I wish they could cast Choco Magic but that'd be broken. Still if someone made a rimworld of magic submod that gave them Chocobo Magics it'd be... Broken...
Erin  [author] 4 Aug, 2022 @ 1:13pm 
All of the FFXIV colours are in this pack, so.. Probably?
AleMead 4 Aug, 2022 @ 5:08am 
Is the golden chocobo a fact? In this pack?

heh.. That rimes..
Erin  [author] 21 Jul, 2022 @ 2:27pm 
Thank you <33

I just wanted to come back to favorite this and leave a like because I love this mod so much.

Chocobo's are my venerated animal in every ideology that isn't absolutely evil.

Erin  [author] 21 Jul, 2022 @ 1:45pm 
@Pure Illusion - No.

GIVE THEM CHOCO-METEOR AND/OR CHOCO-CURE YOU COWARD!

^.^ not knowing that led to me being able to train Boom Rats to attack on raids...

Hahaha... HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
👁 12 Jul, 2022 @ 5:56am 
Oh cool, ty
Erin  [author] 12 Jul, 2022 @ 5:53am 
It's literally a mod option for their trainability. It's set to intermediate by default.

"I'm sorry people have been demanding things, that sucks. I have a colony with meadow aves and chocobos and they look really pretty next to each other. Riding into battle on my massive ostriche army is very satisfying.

For folks looking to pen them, this is a great mod that will let you choose what you want penned. https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2557345722

For folks who don't like penning and want to train all the animals, this is a great mod for that. https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2557943599 "

Woah thanks a bunch!

I was just coming to see if their inability to be trained them as rescue pets was some sort of glitch because of the graphic.

The harness for caravans is very cool
Erin  [author] 13 Jun, 2022 @ 11:47am 
Its very common for people in Final Fantasy to eat chocobos :)
Mentally Impaired Tiny Troll 13 Jun, 2022 @ 9:40am 
Is it weird to eat chocobos? Kinda feels like eating a dog or a horse. Trying to decide on the ethics of this.

And what about their eggs?
shallowgenepool 28 May, 2022 @ 2:23pm 
Great mod, thanks for your hard work Erin.
Erin  [author] 4 Apr, 2022 @ 4:14am 
@Ole Hockey Thighs - Played FFXIV since 2.0 beta. ;) The Ivalice names would be fantastic to use. We'll see.
Ole Hockey Thighs 4 Apr, 2022 @ 3:34am 
@Erin I shall wait patiently (as humanly possible anyway). If you are looking for inspiration for armor names other than the material it's made of, FFT has some pretty great ones. If you play/ed FFXIV you might recall the Ivalice raids. 10/10 would recommend.
Erin  [author] 4 Apr, 2022 @ 3:10am 
@Ole Hockey Thighs - I was planning armour, actually, but got distracted by other projects. It'll eventually be done. ^^
Ole Hockey Thighs 4 Apr, 2022 @ 2:53am 
@Erin, no worries and again thank you for the response :er_heart:

SIDE NOTE :: If you ever wanted to add armor for the chocobos even as a separate mod I wouldn't mind. :lunar2019piginablanket:
Erin  [author] 4 Apr, 2022 @ 2:12am 
@Ole Hockey Thighs - No idea on that one! It should work if the defname was added to the list. I'm not sure, I'm sorry. :( It will 100% work on the next save, though.
