@Autumn depending on how complicated it is, probably sometime after 42 gets to the main branch

Any plans for a B42 update, maybe including tie-ins to the new butchering mechanics? Ran into a composter early on in one run and the moment my yard started getting full I thought of grabbing a mod like this lol.

I'm not sure hot to add a comment to the github as per the mod description, so failing that I'm asking here. Is there any plan to and/or would you make it so that we can use the meat as an ingredient? Currently you can't use it in things like soups, stews, salads, etc. It would also be cool to be able to make soap out of them (like in Fight Club lol). Anyway, appreciate the mod and thanks a bunch. ♥

@Yato thanks for sharing your struggle! Yeah, the number is solely used to download and update the mod on the server, the "Loading mod ID" tells your client what mods it should actually start. I assume this bit was removed from the description by mistake.
Yato 28 Oct, 2024 @ 11:04pm 
Ok ! I’ve fixed the problem. This was not from the ID workshop, it is "2816263599" as on github but of the Mod name which was not "Butcher Corpses" nor "Butcher corpses" but it was "ButCor". I was able to test the mod and it works wonderfully thank you for this nugget!
Please, to facilitate the implementation of your mod for dedicated server, put the ID Workshop and the ID name in your description like other mods available on the workshop

Workshop mod ID : 2816263599
Loading mod ID : ButCor
Yato 28 Oct, 2024 @ 12:45pm 
The mod isn't working for me on my dedicated server. Is there an incompatibility with other mods or something like that? My server has automatically downloaded the mod, and I've checked the mod folder, but it’s still not usable in-game. I've tried carrying the body and even placing it directly on the ground, but it doesn't work. :/

I've also tried to carry the corpse and see if the crafting window would pop up, but it doesn't. I don’t have the recipe in my crafting options. Do I need to read a magazine or have a certain skill for that?

PS : Like every mods can you write the ID mod and the ID workshop in your description ? please (I dont need it anymore because I checked it in the git hub but im talking for other people interested in your mod)

@Caistrophytum if you have a valid knife or axe, you can butcher a corpse in your inventory by simply looting it from the vicinity and right clicking it in your bag. If the option does not show up, check your crafting menu for the Butcher Corpse recipe to see what is missing.
Alternatively you can now also just right click a corpse in the world while you have a valid tool for the recipe mentioned above in your bags and select the "Butcher Corpse for Flesh" option.

appetising
Caistrophytum 21 Oct, 2024 @ 3:47am 
How can I place the corpse in my inventory? You can only grab it... When I grab it and have my butcher's knife nothing happens.

@An Will you update your mod with an idea from "MassCraxx"?
An  [author] 9 Oct, 2024 @ 3:45am 
@MassCraxx Sent you a friend invite, seeing someone update and improve my little mod made me smile :) If you want me to update this one with yours we can do that and I'll cred it you and add you as contributor, you are also completely free to upload your own if you prefer that! Either way I'll want to play with it once 42 comes (I'm sure eventually it will come ;') )
pgames-food 6 Oct, 2024 @ 5:23pm 
ah that works :)
MassCraxx  [author] 6 Oct, 2024 @ 11:14am 
@pgames-food cheers mate, will call it "Butcher Corpse for Flesh" instead.
pgames-food 5 Oct, 2024 @ 5:49pm

Mod works as intended for me, however its only possible to butcher corpses that are available in your inventory.

@An For our little private server, I took your mod and implemented an action in the right click menu to butcher a corpse without the need to have it in your inventory.
Is there a way to share my additions with you or am I allowed to upload it as a successor mod?

pgames-food 5 Oct, 2024 @ 5:48pm 
(hi just fyi there are some other mods which also add a right-click butcher corpses, so it might be good to include (meat) in the rightclick popup or something, just in case others download the mod to help differentiate what each option will do - for example one of the trading mods has an option (but it specifically gives you zombie hide for converting into special bandages, and other things for trading)

Is this mod getting updates because it doesn't work for me and every other mod I have works besides this one
SSteve 18 Jun, 2024 @ 8:19pm 
how do you butcher without the corpse in your inventory. I have inventory tetris so i cant get it in there
pgames-food 3 May, 2024 @ 8:16pm 
lol that would be cool :)
V-guy 2 May, 2024 @ 6:54pm 
gunna bite a zombie and see if it turns human
pgames-food 21 Apr, 2024 @ 5:30pm 
hi do you know if there is any way to speed up the Composter?

if there is even a local game file i can manually edit or something, it will help, because i think the quickest ive seen in an in-game setting was 1 or 2 weeks minimum, but would like to change it to 2 days. :)

yes but no

I would've downloaded if I didn't need to pick up the corpse first
Brightly 6 Jan, 2024 @ 12:49pm 
Finally now I don't need a shovel when my friends die to dispose of them.
Васька Хроник 30 Oct, 2023 @ 10:00am 
Truth be told, I don't use rotten meat for food. I installed this mod to convert troupes into compost. I'm still wondering if you can write a mod where you can put whole zombie troupes in a compost bin along with all the junk that comes with it, for example, like in the crematorium mod?:steamhappy:

@Swedin Just like how I solve stress and unhappiness in my daily life
Swedin 15 Oct, 2023 @ 4:59pm 
So finding some Cigarretes + Alcohol and the BBQ can get started

Please make it so that we can use recipes in corpse flesh

Has anyone figured out any mod conflicts? I’ve got quite a few and my server isn’t working with it
An  [author] 31 May, 2023 @ 10:31am 
@Mugen That is pretty funny ngl, though you shouldn't get sick from eating cooked corpse meat (you need to wait an additional 1 second after it "finishes" cooking for it to actually be cooked, if you see it start burning then you're good). The depression is intended though
onebunchmugen 31 May, 2023 @ 7:04am 
i ate one piece of cooked human meat then immediately became depressed. To compansate negative stats of unhappiness i just decided to light a cigar and however my sickness reach 100 points so I died in 2 minutes. 10/10 İmmersive mod.
TLDR: Dont smoke weed after eating meat or u die!:steamthumbsup:
Segas Wolf 21 May, 2023 @ 8:43am 
can u butcher the zombies when still at the floor? :O that gonna be a awesome thing
404_coffee.exe 6 Apr, 2023 @ 7:16am 
you should make it compatible with the bone mod
Tim 1 Mar, 2023 @ 1:02am 
Can you use it in a stew? Can we get a cannibal trait?
404_coffee.exe 24 Feb, 2023 @ 8:18am 
You should make it so you can also extract the bones as well I mean you may as well use the whole thing to make some weaponry as well I mean bones are very useful material very pointy material
Grass 28 Jan, 2023 @ 10:32am 
what happens if you cook it and then eat it?
กระเพราไก่ 9 Dec, 2022 @ 11:55pm 
this mod is still work.
Zuhrkov 11 Oct, 2022 @ 12:10pm 
may i ask why this mod doesnt work ? it is even compactible with other mods ?:steamsalty:
Darth_Alaks 30 Sep, 2022 @ 4:53pm 
Is it possible to increase the amount of "meat" obtained during cutting? Very low productivity is obtained - from 100 corpses of 20 kg each, only 40 kg of result is obtained. This is very, very little.
King Zog 29 Sep, 2022 @ 8:14pm 
could you please make it so i can do cannibal recipes? thank you
An  [author] 21 Sep, 2022 @ 8:38am 
Yea
R4KET 17 Sep, 2022 @ 2:22pm 
If I butcher the corpse will the body disappear from the ground?
An  [author] 11 Sep, 2022 @ 9:56am 
Nope, it's mainly meant to be used as a very easy way to get compost, and only to be eaten if you have literally nothing else available
fkr 10 Sep, 2022 @ 4:12am 
Hey @An, can you use it in recipes as an ingredient?
Like soups, stir-fry, salads etc
Preacher 2 Sep, 2022 @ 11:30pm 
I'd love to see us able to use the meat in recipes, such as the "stew" you can make with rotten food later - or zombie-meat sandwiches... Anything you could do with normal meat
An  [author] 1 Sep, 2022 @ 9:00am 
@Player 0: You can butcher any corpse, I also just tested it on a server with only this mod enabled and it worked. Not sure why it wouldn't work for you, either it's not enabled or you have some mod conflict? Though a conflict is pretty unlikely as this mod simply adds the flesh items and the "Butcher corpse" recipe
