ah understandable, I straight up thought it was permanently discontinued regardless of terraria updates (ie elemental unleash.) so that one is on me now, my bad.

You could say this mod is dead, and that's on me. I should have put an announcement about it but I've let it sit on the back burner for awhile now. The mod is on hiatus until 1.4.5, as that update is making major changes to fishing in the code, so I don't want to commit to updating my current code to 1.4.4 when I'll have to tear it back down for 1.4.5.

If anyone wants a similar mod here is one {LINK REMOVED}...
Godslayer4000 3 Feb @ 10:52am 
yes, absolutely, its 2025 and its still not in 1.4.4, its dead.
Omega Battle 2 Feb @ 2:51pm

Vegan For The Animals 21 Aug, 2024 @ 6:53pm

Romanian Sufganiyah 1 Mar, 2024 @ 9:41am

Epic! i've gotten pretty good at SDV fishing so this should e a piece of Cake!
Syntheta 9 Sep, 2023 @ 12:01pm 
please update to 1.4.4
Sangar 26 Aug, 2023 @ 6:41pm 
Are there any plans to port to 1.4.4?
Albhis 26 Jul, 2023 @ 5:25pm 
I've not been getting lava fish in lava lakes with this mod, though I'm unsure if it's due to the compat addon with thorium.
kredrok 14 Jul, 2023 @ 10:51am 
cool mod
Godslayer4000 19 May, 2023 @ 6:34pm 
also @Khorneflakes just so you know this does work with modded items it will work with the abyssal amulet (i got a strange crate) but PLEASE bear in mind how rare the item you want is, that shiny necklace has less than a 2% reel chance in calamity, do NOT expect to get it when you want it
Godslayer4000 19 May, 2023 @ 6:26pm 
okay dear god im an idiot, was playing the whole mini game wrong (keep it on the green bar not spam the hell out of it lmao.)
Godslayer4000 19 May, 2023 @ 6:21pm 
oh no i didnt have any gear or equips do they increase the time? thought i stumbled apon the "infernum" of fishing for a second, although how does one net the quest fish to get the accessories in the first place then?
Petrichor 19 May, 2023 @ 2:21pm 
It gets a lot easier with the angler clothes and accessories.
Petrichor 19 May, 2023 @ 2:20pm 
@Godslayer4000 Did you use any fishing power accessories at all while testing? Fishing with low fishing power is supposed to be hellish because the rewards are greatly increased regardless of how much fishing power you have, so being able to fish easily early on would get problematic for balance.
Godslayer4000 18 May, 2023 @ 1:41pm 
jesus is this just unfair, if you ever wanting fishing in a soulslike now you have it, i have no idea how you even go about catching a bass without draedons pole due to the catch time being like 5.8 seconds, as unrealistic as it is ( I fish IRL and fish usually dont break off anywhere NEAR that quick especially once hooked.) its still much more realistic than basic tmodloader, and most of all its for masochists, and i like that.

BTW using fishing rod from vanilla, no mods in there

Sometimes the bar catching become hyper tiny and the fish powder still the same.
Good_Days13 13 Oct, 2022 @ 8:27pm 
also, i'm not sure, but i think when you use the last of your bait on a catch, the minigame thinks you have 0 fishing power? that's what i'm guessing happens
Good_Days13 13 Oct, 2022 @ 8:25pm 
or maybe try to figure out how to add back the autopause feature
Good_Days13 13 Oct, 2022 @ 8:23pm 
i feel like you should be able to change the gravity of the bar in some settings, and you should be able to exit the minigame
Petrichor 14 Aug, 2022 @ 7:11pm 
Would the calamity accessories that increase the chance of crates spawning work with this mod's crate system? Particularly, the enchanted pearl and the final upgrade for the tackle bag. They supposedly stack with crate potions, so it's possible they boost the chance in some different way.
Terry  [author] 8 Aug, 2022 @ 10:58pm 
This mod was made well before Calamity was on 1.4, so I have not been able to test it extensively (or much at all, to be frank). I am completely unsure if it was just you being unlucky, but since this mod greatly changes how items are selected when fishing, there is a non-zero chance it is interfering. I am not sure how Calamity handles its fishing loot, but considering this mod takes into account modded fishing attempts the best it can, I'm not sure what exactly could be causing the problem.
Petrichor 8 Aug, 2022 @ 1:30pm 
@Terry my question from before is still up in the air though btw. I had to disable this mod to get the abyssal amulet, but it's still unclear if that was bad luck or if this mod actually interfered.
Petrichor 8 Aug, 2022 @ 1:29pm 
If anything an argument could be made for the opposite, that getting rare loot so quickly with such low items makes fishing stupidly strong. But this mod also makes doing that challenging, which is more than meandering around in a cave searching for rocks only to die to a Randomly Generated Boulder can offer, frankly.
Petrichor 8 Aug, 2022 @ 1:26pm 
@bananasplitz Common fish like bass can be fished up with literally any rod, bass don't put up a fight. With fishing power that low all you're going to get in vanilla are bass anyways, so I think it balances out, while still at least giving you the opportunity to make an attempt at getting better fish. I got a reaver shark with the wooden fishing pole with this mod.
BananaSplitz 7 Aug, 2022 @ 7:42pm 
the ideia is cool, but literally breaks early game, the early fishing rods are just trash with this mod. i like the ideia but i will not use it. maybe i try again with better rods, but in the early game is just trash
Alaswing 5 Aug, 2022 @ 5:52pm 
hi, im loving the mod, however i want to ask you if it is compatible with calamity and/or fargo, cause right now im equiped with full fisherman set, earring, and backpack and still my green bar is super small!
Petrichor 3 Aug, 2022 @ 4:26pm 
Is this compatible with calamity? I'm concerned that some items with certain requirements might not be registering, like how the abyssal amulet needs to be caught within a certain fishing power threshold.
Leva the Star 30 Jul, 2022 @ 1:02am 
alright, thank u!
Terry  [author] 28 Jul, 2022 @ 6:25pm 
Left mouse button. Hold to go up, release to let it drop.
Leva the Star 28 Jul, 2022 @ 10:49am 
how to move the green bar
Terry  [author] 3 Jul, 2022 @ 8:45pm 
Mod has been updated, and will now compile on stable once more. Apologies for leaving this mod like a sitting duck for so long, I have had busy hands with other projects, but hopefully everything is stable once more.
Hokojin 1 Jul, 2022 @ 1:56pm 
Please update for 1.4!
Spekulatius651 29 Jun, 2022 @ 9:51am 
mod is outdated
Terra 25 Jun, 2022 @ 3:12am 
update your mod dummy
Good_Days13 14 Jun, 2022 @ 3:57pm 
i wanna try it, but it's outdated right now so it wont load
meow 30 May, 2022 @ 4:23am 
Doesn't work with the TML Preview so it's probably gonna break in the next update which is coming in a couple days.
meow 26 May, 2022 @ 2:10am 
Desperately needs a way to give up on the current fish, I've died several times because I was fishing and I couldn't defend myself.
NicBric6 22 May, 2022 @ 11:12am 
Would it be possible to implement some sort of perfect catch bonus like in Stardew? Maybe for material fish it would give an extra, or guarantee a good modifier on tool/weapon fish?
meow 21 May, 2022 @ 4:13pm 
Could you alter crate potions so that in addition to increasing their spawn rate also making it significantly easier to get them in this minigame?
Ecruben 20 May, 2022 @ 9:58am 
I should note that I was fishing in a smaller than optimal pool, so that probably increased the difficulty a good bit, so my bad there. Still, a bass should be a 3-5 sec catch at most in my opinion.
Ecruben 20 May, 2022 @ 8:45am 
Alright second impressions time. The minigame works now, neat. The difficulty is quite steep though, at least in early game with no fishing items. The bar is actually smaller than the visual, and makes it near impossible to catch a simple bass without extreme precision and focus. It also takes way to long for the bar to fill up for something as simple as a bass.

Think I'm gonna skip this mod, it takes way too much effort and time for very little reward. Terraria fishing is more about quantity, not quality like in stardew valley, so this is just frustrating on multiple levels. Still, I applaud the effort of trying to make fishing more active and unique, I just don't think this type of minigame works for terraria.

You're doing good work trying things out with terraria modding, I appreciate it. Don't let my critique stifle ya btw, I'm just some rando on the internet. Good luck in your future modding endeavors.
Terry  [author] 19 May, 2022 @ 8:19pm 
Version 0.1.0.2 has been released, which removes the autopause functionality. I am yet to be able to reproduce the crash/softlock bug, so I am hoping this fixes it. Please do tell if the problem persists for those who encounter it.
Terry  [author] 19 May, 2022 @ 6:23pm 
@Ecruben To answer your question, you hold and release the left mouse button to move the bar. There's natural gravity that will pull the bar down if you aren't holding the left mouse button.
