Hunting: The Frontier Trapper
Hunting for RedM with pelt quality, tracking, traps, contracts, reputation and legendary expeditions

kartik-hunting turns hunting into a career. Players start as greenhorns and build a name by reading sign, taking clean shots, supplying butchers, kitchens and trading posts, and finally going after legendary animals.
Works on RSG and VORP.
Every kill tells a story. The result card explains the grade: the weapon, where the shot landed, how many hits it took, the animal's condition and how long it lay.
π What it does
- β Pelt quality: Poor, Good or Perfect, from the weapon, shot placement, hits, the animal's condition and rot.
- πΎ 31 species with their own pelts, meat and parts (antlers, horns, claws, teeth, tusks, feathers, fat, hearts), a size, a diet and the regions they live in.
- π Tracking: crouch and search for sign. Tracks, droppings, brush, fur, feathers, rubs and beds lead to the animal, with a search circle that shrinks at every sign.
- π Animal senses: stance, speed, your horse, the wind and cover scent decide how close you get. Predators may charge.
- π©Έ Blood trails from wounded animals, and Eagle Eye to see sign from further away.
- π Sound cues: a heartbeat that quickens as you close in and a chime when a sign is read. No sound files needed.
- π₯© Bait for grazers, predators and small game.
- πͺ€ Traps: snares and baited cage traps that stay where they were set, even across restarts.
- π Horse and wagon storage: tie carcasses on your horse or load a wagon, then sell or fill contracts straight from it.
- π₯ Hunting parties of up to four, with a shared trail and shared reputation.
- πͺ Field processing: native skinning or prompts, butchering and inspecting.
- π§ Freshness: meat and pelts spoil. Salt and tanning kits keep them.
- π Contracts on butcher, kitchen and trapper boards, with rank locked tiers.
- π Trophy animals that stay scarce and 14 legendary animals hunted on expeditions.
- π Legendary story hunts: every legend has its own three-chapter story with staged scenes, a lair where it sleeps, feeds or lies in ambush, and a story reward.
- πΊοΈ Legend board at the trappers: three legendary hunts at a time, changing every few hours across the server, with a trapper's bonus.
- π οΈ Hunt editor: rewrite any legend's story and hand-place its scenes and lair in game, no files or restarts.
- π¦ Trophy mounts: have trophies and legends mounted at the trapper and put them on display in your house or camp.
- π« Poachers and rival hunters: gunmen, riders and snipers on trails and story hunts that you have to clear before the trail goes on.
- ποΈ Reputation: eight ranks from Greenhorn to Legend of the Frontier, with perks, better prices and rank locked gear.
- π Hunter's Journal: ledger, contracts, compendium, satchel, camp and expeditions.
- π¨ Two themes,
frontierandpaper, matching Kartik Multicharacter. - π¬ Discord logs for rare kills, contracts, new ranks, big sales and admin commands.
- π Six languages: English, German, French, Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese and Polish.
