Re: How can you get an axe early game? I don't like to state the obvious, but nobody else has mentioned you can make your own stone axe. Probably can't make boards with it, but it is useful.

Plasmator Expanded mod URW EXPANDED

This mod was not meant to be 100% faithful to the historical reenactment, however I searched various sources about Iron Age foods in Finland, such as rose hips, wild apple trees, juniper, as well as sour milk and fermented beverages.
In the future, I will release a completely realistic mod, to which I will also attach the sources.
In this mode I've used some tiles from vanilla game, is forbidden to use them outside URW. about my own graphic and code, feel free to use it for your own projects and mods.

This mod contain also the Bird Coop code and graphic by Privateer.

HOW TO INSTALL
Simply copy and paste all files in the URW directory
Make a diy_glossary and diy_cookery backup first!

GUIDE TO THE MOD (to be finished)

Spoiler: show
THE NEW WATER FAUNA
The addition of aquatic animals in addition to the fish already present in the vanilla version makes the aquatic places even more important than in the past, and the different habitats of these animals will lead to more considered choices on where to place your camp / settlement.

Mussels and prawns are found in the sea, and are an immense source of food just waiting to be harvested and cooked.
Mussels are present practically all year round, but only in the southern and western coastal areas due to the too low salinity in the sea to the north.
They can be found mainly on rock formations on the coast or on rocks in the open sea.
Prawns are found all along the URW coast, and there are two species, baltic prawn and rockpool prawn.
Baltic prawns are easiest to find in shallow coastal waters, while rockpool prawns are rarer to find and congregate in small pools of water on rocks.

Moving on to the freshwater habitat, we can find the large and tasty crayfish, generally in rivers and lakes, although their fishing through traps is only possible in lakes due to the too much current of the rivers which would drag away the trap.
Clams are another considerable, though less abundant, food source than mussels, and are found only in rivers.



BUGS!
In our wanderings in the lands of URW during the warmer months, we may now encounter bee hives, or small groups of snails.
Bee hives can be found near large trees, and are very hard to find. When it is harvested, we can extract honey or beewax from a beehive.
Honey is the highest carbohydrate food in the game, spoil after 200 days, and can be made into mead, a great drink.
The beewax is instead used to seal some long-life foods, or to make armor in boiled leather in the beewax (to be implemented)

Snails, on the other hand, are a food that is easy to find in almost all territories, and must be boiled, otherwise they are poisonous.
 An excellent source of fat and protein to harvest in the wild!

FRUIT TREES
Hazelnut and wild apple can now can now be found in URW.
Hazelnuts, rare enough to find, are an incredible source of fat that can fill you up more than handfuls of blueberries.
on the other hand, apple trees are very easy to find, and their juicy fruits are just waiting to be picked (try the delicious fermented apple drink!)

NEW PLANTS
Now you can harvest hip roses from wild roses, juniper berries, lentils and ramsons.
Those plant where made mostly to add variety in the game and are quite similar to other similar plants in the game

[Outdated] [3.80] Community Mod BAC This is an old thread.

Next version is at
https://www.unrealworld.fi/forums/index.php?topic=7176.0

>>>
BAC is a community mega mod for Unreal World. It contains work from many contributors across many versions of Unreal World gong all the way back to Rain's amazing iron mod. There have been multiple caretakers and may be others in the future. Text files list various contributors.

Im doing the update for 3.80.


A fresh BAC thread to continue the updating for the current vanilla game. Each game update may cause "collision" by taking up base menu numbers or changing some mechanic.
3.72 vanilla did a much needed change on cordage types that needed an overall beyond my own time to due. Thanks to Armion and Rudy for doing the update then.
3.80 is added minor changes to how arrows can be made, which BAC already had in its own form, and adding a lumber option for a less than board piece of flat wood called "slat"

The first few posts are being reserved for later notes that tend to be needed.

As only the original creator of thread post #1 can adjust its attachments while it will initially be the current 3.80 BAC version you may need to check the end posts for any updates by anyone else.

Re: My first entry: The Challenge! Welcome to an Unreal World of pain, suffering, starvation and shivering!  Unless you've already played a fair bit and know what you're doing, you're doomed.  Even if you do know what you're about, bad luck may still doom you.  Gotta love it  :)
