Food Mats Addition Mod

[silven88]

Hello everyone, let me first apologize if this isn't the appropriate place to post. I wasn't sure if this should go here or under Mod Requests.

 

So I want to create a new mod and I'm not entirely sure how to do it. What I want to do is pretty specific and I couldn't find any tutorials (text or video) on how to do what I want to do. So let me outline what I want to accomplish and hopefully a few kind souls will point me in the right direction or even know where the appropriate tutorial can be found.

 

1) I want to add several new items that drop from various creatures and wildlife, specifically meats and other things used for cooking.

 

2) I want to create new recipes that use the cooking spit and consume these new and already existing ingredients.

 

3) I want food and general vendors to start selling these meats from their inventory.

 

3) If possible create new textures and object models for these new items, either myself or through the collaboration of another artist.

 

4) I want the change in gameplay that my mod creates to be realistic and intuitive.

 

5) *Hopefully* get Imp of the Perverse to make my new recipes and items compatible with his IMCN mod.

 

 

I have a general understanding of how to create new items and how to create new recipes, but I can't figure out how to make these new items drop from their respective actor.

For example, make the Grizzly Bear I just killed start dropping Raw Bear Meat.

 

Any information you folks are willing to share with a new modder would be greatly appreciated. Cheers! :)
