FS25 Realistic Livestock RM V1.0.1

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
– 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
– Daily summary mode for message log
– In-game help pages
– Highland cattle bull support
– Map support: Hof Bergmann (ducks, geese, cats, rabbits)
– Simple support for butchers using Extended Production Point (EPP) mod
– Multiplayer support

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

Limitations
– Multiplayer: Dewars (AI semen canisters) cannot be physically picked up by clients. Works in singleplayer.

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.

v1.0.1.0 – Hof Bergmann and basic butcher support:
– Added Hof Bergmann map support – exotic animals (ducks, geese, cats, rabbits) now support full breeding and reproduction
– Added basic support for butchers using Extended Production Point (EPP) mod
– Added missing translation keys across all languages
– Improved offspring subtype selection for maps with non-standard animal configurations
– Updated Italian translation
– Fixed “Manage Animals” (R) key interfering with other mods’ keybindings in different menu tabs
– Fixed bulk move allowing more animals than target pen capacity
– Fixed error when moving animals to Extended Production Points (EPP butchers)
