Epic Hunt Medieval Animals And More FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I start hunting in this mod?
Craft or find a bow and arrows, then locate animals like deer, boars, or bears in forests and plains biomes. Approach carefully and aim for a clean shot—some animals like bears are aggressive and will fight back.
What's the easiest way to get meat early game?
Hunt smaller animals like deer or pheasants with a bow, or catch catfish in rivers and cook them whole over a fire without needing to butcher them first.
How do I set up a fish farm?
Create a water pen or enclosure, place carp inside it, and feed them seeds to breed them—this gives you a renewable source of fish without having to hunt.
How do I butcher a catfish?
Catch a catfish, place it on a meathook block, and interact with it to process it into fresh filets and other meat products.
Which animals can I ride?
The mod adds several rideable mobs that let you travel across the land faster—check the mod's rideable animals guide for the complete list and taming requirements.
What fish spawn in the ocean vs rivers?
Freshwater rivers and lakes have bass, carp, catfish, eels, perch, trout, and zander, while oceans contain saltwater species like halibut, herring, mackerel, sardines, and aggressive pikefish.
Are there any aggressive mobs I should watch out for?
Bears are dangerous and will attack you, and pikefish in the water are fierce hunters—approach both with caution or prepare for combat.
Can I keep animals as pets or on a farm?
Yes, you can tame and keep rideable animals, and farm animals like goats and highland cows can be kept in pastures for breeding or resources.
Do I need special tools to catch fish?
You need a fishing rod to catch fish from water—no special tools are required beyond that.
What should I do if animals aren't spawning?
Make sure you're in the correct biomes (forests and plains for land animals, rivers and oceans for fish), and check that your render distance and mob spawning settings are appropriate.
