Description
A mod that removes the need for Unreal Engine or Palworld Modding Kit for modders wishing to add Ranch suitability to any Pal in the game. See guide below for more information.

Installation
Simply open the downloaded archive using 7zip or a similar archival program and place the contained folder into your main Palworld folder as shown here.

Compatibility
Ranch Animation Resource is compatible with all existing mods, and will not conflict with existing Ranch suitability mods. However, Ranch suitability mods could conflict with each other if they don't use Pal Schema. If in doubt, check the description for these mods for more information. RAR can be installed on an existing world with no issues. It can be removed at any time. It has no known incompatibilities on a server, so long as it is installed on the server.

For Players
You probably don't need this mod if you weren't directed to install it by a mod in your mod list. It is only intended to package animations needed for Pals to be able to drop items in the Ranch.

For Modders
See the following guide: Adding Ranch Suitability. Ignore the Palworld Modding Kit section, which this mod supersedes. When you get to the Blueprint section, you can now use RAR's animations with the following value "/Game/Mods/RanchAnimationResource/XXXX/BP_XXXX_SpawnItem.BP_XXXX_SpawnItem_C" where XXXX is the ingame name of the Pal. Exceptions are Yakushima Slimes use Slime, Yakushima Bats use Bat and Yakushima Demon Eye / Eye of Cthulhu use Eye. If it is a variant, always use the original. Hartalis is the only Pal not currently supported due to missing animation maps. For instance, if you wish to add ranch suitability to Foxparks, you might have a Foxparks.json file in your blueprints directory with the following contents.
