If you're looking to streamline your farming experience in *Fields of Mistria*, having an auto-petter for your livestock can be a game-changer. However, the vanilla version of the game does not include such a feature, requiring daily petting of your animals. Fortunately, there's a solution for those willing to dive into the world of mods.
Fields of Mistria Auto-Petter Guide
To enjoy the convenience of an auto-petter in *Fields of Mistria*, you'll need to install the Animal Friends mod by annanomoly, available on Nexus Mods. This mod not only automates petting but also takes care of feeding your animals. To get started, you'll need the Mods of Mistria Installer, a crucial tool for activating the mod.
Here's how to install the mod:
- Create a new folder named "Mods" in your *Fields of Mistria* game directory.
- Download the AnimalFriends.zip file and place it in the Mods folder.
- Extract the contents of the zip file into the Mods folder.
- Delete or move the original zip file to another location.
- Run the Mods of Mistria Installer to complete the installation process.
The Animal Friends mod comes packed with features that enhance your farming experience. In addition to the auto-petter, you can enable an auto-feeder, a friendship multiplier, and a feature to prevent friendship loss. The friendship multiplier boosts the number of hearts your animals can have, while the prevent friendship loss ensures that the hearts you've earned don't vanish.
To customize these features, locate the AnimalFriends.json file within the unzipped mod folder. This file is a simple text document where you can toggle features on or off by changing "false" to "true." For example, to activate the auto-petter, you would modify the line to: ["auto-feed": true]. To disable a feature, simply revert "true" back to "false."
The friendship multiplier requires a numerical input, ranging from 1 to 100. Setting it to the maximum can skip the bonding process with your animals, while setting it to 1 disables the feature.
Upon installation, the mod comes with default settings where the auto-pet and auto-feed functions are inactive, but it does increase heart points from petting by five times and automatically activates the prevent friendship loss feature.
If you decide to remove the mod, don't just delete the mod folder. Use the Mods of Mistria Installer to uninstall it properly, preventing any potential corruption or errors in your save file.
Before installing any mods, it's wise to back up your save file. While the Animal Friends mod is generally stable, having a backup ensures you can revert if needed.
That's all you need to know about setting up an auto-petter in *Fields of Mistria*. Enjoy a more automated and efficient farming experience on your PC.
