Realistic Livestock RM V1.2.4 fs25-mods

Description:

Replaces FS25's simple animal clusters with individually tracked animals — each with unique genetics, breeding, diseases, and production traits. A maintained version of Arrow-kb’s Realistic Livestock mod. Every animal is tracked separately with its own identity, genetic makeup, health status, and production output. Genetics are inherited through breeding, diseases can spread and require treatment, and production is driven by each animal’s individual traits. This is a maintained version of the original Realistic Livestock mod by Arrow-kb, who has discontinued development. The goal is to keep the mod working, fix bugs, and make improvements where needed. **Features** - Individual animal tracking with unique identity - Genetics system with heritable traits that affect production output - Genetics display in animal names with configurable detail level (average score or full trait breakdown) - Breeding and reproduction with pregnancy mechanics and genetic inheritance - AI insemination system with semen dewars - Disease simulation with infection, treatment, and immunity - Animal monitoring to track individual animals over time - Weight system tied to genetics and feeding - Animal marking and castration - Move tab for transferring animals between husbandries - Daily summary mode for message log - In-game help pages - Highland cattle bull support - Animal pack system: third-party mods can add new breeds or adjust animal balance - Map support: Hof Bergmann (ducks, geese, cats, rabbits, alpacas, quail) with automatic version-aware compatibility - Map support: Witcombe (UK breeds — Jersey, Gloucestershire Old Spot, Texel, Suffolk, Blue Faced Leicester, plus Hereford heritage profile) with automatic version-aware compatibility - Map support: Le Mechet (French breeds — Charolaise, Montbeliarde, Simmental, Vosgienne) with automatic version-aware compatibility - Simple support for butchers using Extended Production Point (EPP) mod - Mod compatibility checks at startup: hard-block dialog for incompatible mods, plus a dismissible warning tier for mods known to degrade gameplay - Multiplayer support **Supported Maps & Packs** Maps: - Hof Bergmann (https://www.lsfarming-mods.com/) — ducks, geese, cats, rabbits, alpacas, quail with full breeding support - Witcombe (https://oxygendavid.itch.io/witcombe-park-farm) — UK breeds (Jersey, Gloucestershire Old Spot, Texel, Suffolk, Blue Faced Leicester) with full breeding support; Hereford heritage profile - Le Mechet (https://farming-simulator.com/mod.php?mod_id=357964) — French breeds (Charolaise, Montbeliarde, Simmental, Vosgienne) with full breeding support (NOT compatible with Cow Breeds Pack unless you use the latest development version — both replace the cow husbandry config) Animal Packs: - Cow Breeds Pack for RLRM by ConGan98 — additional cattle breeds **Notes** - Based on Arrow-kb’s Realistic Livestock mod (v1.2.0.5), released under GPL-3 license - Savegame data from Arrow-kb’s original version is automatically migrated on first load - Font Library mod is no longer required - Incompatible with FS25_EnhancedLivestock, FS25_MoreVisualAnimals, and FS25_EnhancedAnimalSystem **Installation** Place FS25_RealisticLivestockRM.zip in your mods folder. Migrating from Arrow-kb’s version: Remove FS25_RealisticLivestock.zip and FS25_FontLibrary.zip. Back up your savegame first, then load it — data migrates automatically. **V1.2.4.0** Added: - Map support: Le Mechet by MA7Studio (https://farming-simulator.com/mod.php?mod_id=357964) — four French cow breeds with bull variants; full breeding, genetics, and reproduction; per-breed pricing, milk curves, and reproduction signatures preserved from the map’s source XML. - In-game warning when two map bridges or animal packs replace the same animal type’s husbandry. The second one wins, and the first one’s animals can become invisible (ghost animals); RLRM now shows a dismissible warning at mission start. - Witcombe Park Farm 1.3.0.0 (v4) now loads cleanly with the existing map bridge. Improved: - Hereford adult cow and bull skin updated to a more breed-accurate red-and-white coat. Texture contributed by [MA] BavarianRedneck. - French translation refreshed by community contributor @squall39: corrections to existing strings and translations for new RL Tabbed Menu strings. - User guide cattle milk chart now aligns with the breed-range table; footnotes clarify the factors influencing the table range. Fixed: - Finance overview now shows “Medicine” for animal medicine costs instead of the fallback message. **Compatibility:** - Le Mechet is NOT compatible with the Cow Breeds Pack for RLRM unless using the latest dev version. - When Le Mechet is active, Hereford is removed from the dealer. **RL Menu (preview — work in progress):** - Added saveable animal filters based on multiple criteria; filters persist across sessions. - Cycling through filters with F on Info / Buy / Sell / Move tabs. - Multiplayer sync for filter creation, update, and deletion. - Settings tab with general settings and saved filters. - Reference page for manual filter creation in the user guide.
