Wildlife+ [Crocuta]

Description
Wildlife+ is a series of mods intending to expand the current roster of wildlife in game. This entry adds in two entirely new factions and six individual creatures to the game, building on the current roll call of canines.

Faction Overview
The Hyaenidae faction currently includes four members, the Dire hyena, the Slough hyena, the Grievous hyena and the Fell hyena. They are found in various places throughout the world and vary in size, speed and strength. The Hyaenidae factions relation with the Wolves (aka bonedog) faction lies in the negatives, meaning it isn't uncommon to find the two species fighting turf wars out in the wild. Dire hyenas have even been seen integrated into rebel farmer patrols.

The Crocuta faction currently includes two members, the Orion crocuta, and the Verglas crocuta. They are large and dangerous beasts, who lurk in solemn areas of the globe. Orion crocuta can be found in Skinner's roam hunting bulls they find there, whereas the Verglas crocuta has evolved to live in such a hostile environment as the Ashlands. The former can be hunted for their pelt, whereas the latter can be looted for their claws, which sell for high prices... if you can kill one. They are also extremely hostile to any animal that falls under the herbivore faction.

Other features
Included is a custom start, regarding a holy nation drifter with three hyena companions.
"Having tamed and trained many hyenas across the Holy lands in their time, this drifter has longed to see the outside world despite all the warnings his brothers and sisters shared. With three of his most loyal and obedient beasts by his side, he sets off to explore the outer regions of the world."

Hyenas/crocuta can also wear backpacks! You'll find these backpacks in places you regularly find them. Hyena backpacks are smaller than crocuta ones, and carry less weight.

You can tame any of these animals in a similar fashion to TameBeasties by placing them inside a cage and talking to them.

Requires an import.

For those encountering the 'cannot recruit crocuta doggo', make sure it is from a squad and not a lone one as the dialog package required to tame them is not incorporated for lone crocutas

How the heck can you one on one a hyena. They get 3 hits in before you can even get off one, and they stagger so often that you don't get to use that hit, staggered so can't even block unless you got a 90s character.

so..... did you MEAN for the orion to do near 160 a hit? that is quite broken for both sides, if im under equipped i can get squad wipped by one dog not only that but if i get one which i do, they do 160 damage .-. im just walking down the road and its killing high armor enemies with ease... this is cheap....... if anything... and just unfun to be against? i guess.

Really liked this mod but it's now causing my game to constantly crash. I've been trying to find out which mod has been giving me CTD but I've narrowed it down to this one.

Found a Orion Crocuta dying in Skinner's Roam. Tried to recruit but the dialogue won't trigger. I'm I missing something?

Hey Serpy, I'm working on a large overhaul mod and I've found that your Crocuta provide a needed boost to variety in wildlife. I've changed some of the frequencies to make them a bit more rare in some places, and appear in other places they didnt previously, but overall I feel there's a nice balance now. I'd like to continue using this with your blessing. I plan to do a roll out to private, contributor beta by the end of the year, and an open beta after that. All contributions are credited.
