As a cat person, words can't describe how exciting it is to finally see a skill mod dedicated to our feline friends. While playing the mod, I couldn't believe all the fishes that existed in the game, as I had never even realized EA had added new fishes to every expansion pack, and that special fishes could be caught in different bodies of water (freshwater, saltwater, ponds). Congratulations for this amazing addition to the game! Deeply appreciate your work.

Thank you for this great mod. Just one question: With what patch was it build?

1.67. It hasn't been tested on 1.69 (or are we on 1.70 now?) but I would be shocked if that caused a problem.

Thanks!!

I attempted to add the translations, but my tester reported that the French translation didn't show up. I'm sure it's me and not the translation, and I'm kind of baffled. Just to let folks know that I did receive the translations, and I was excited to have them. I just need to take some time to try to figure out what I messed up.

----------------------

Well, I just figured out that point too, but I solved it by thoses steps
Then I downloaded again the mod in Download Tab ( Not from comments)
> Open it with S3PE > Deleting the line " Strings_FRE_FR_0x07FB55E27F881B10 " and replace it with the STBL FRENCH I translated from my own comment
> DELETED CACHES FILES
> Worked.
I have no clue how was happened, I only translated it without edited instance or else change.
Here, this is the working French mod file, enjoy.

I think I found a problem with the STBL instance ID, too. I'll get a version with the translations up as soon as I can!

I love this mod, but whenever my cat catches a fish I get an nraas script error and my cat is reset to home.
Any ideas how to get around this?

Oh dear! I'll check to see if anyone else is getting this! I had this trouble on development versions, but I don't remember what caused it, and I thought it was addressed.

One thing I think I remember is that when I changed details of the skill journal and testers updated, some had a corrupted skill. Do you use NRaas? You could try removing the skill using NRaas->Advanced->Skills and then adding it back.

Any information about what you're doing would be helpful so I can test.

I tried that. Still getting script error. I started a new CAS cat and tried setting to level 5 fishing - still getting error when they catch a fish.
Thanks for reply x

As someone who plays a challenge that is mainly focused around colonies of wild cats and cat gameplay, I'm super excited to see this mod! I haven't tried it out yet, but I just installed it and I'm gonna give it a test run!
