Anyone know how I can fix this? It would be really helpful! Thanks!

Antelope mod? Yeah, I've been trying myself to update it. I have no idea how I got it working, though... I think I just copied the "AlphaMuffalo" mod. I replaced the "Alphalo" with "Antelope" and tweaked a few things for texture, body size, n' such. It's a difficult thing to do, 'cause I messed up real easy without knowing what was wrong. The Antelope mod has outdated code, so you should try to use updated code (like the default 'muffalo' pawndef thingdef_races codes) to fix it.

It's a tedious task, aye, but rewarding. If you need any additional help, just ask. Maybe send me the xml code, too, eh? You might just have a little something wrong with a piece of text. Could just be missing a '<', '>', or something really small. Ya never know. Well, hope I helped ya.

Make sure you have a PawnKindDefs.

Muffalo example:

Code Select Expand

<PawnKindDef>
<defName>Muffalo</defName>
<label>Muffalo</label>
<race>Muffalo</race>
    <pointsCost>90</pointsCost>
<standardBodyGraphicPath>Things/Pawn/Animal/Muffalo</standardBodyGraphicPath>
<wildSpawn_spawnWild>true</wildSpawn_spawnWild>
<wildSpawn_EcoSystemWeight>1</wildSpawn_EcoSystemWeight>
<wildSpawn_GroupSizeRange>
<min>3</min>
<max>9</max>
</wildSpawn_GroupSizeRange>
<wildSpawn_SelectionWeight>0.5</wildSpawn_SelectionWeight>
</PawnKindDef>

Make sure you have ThingDefs for the animal.

Muffalo example:

Code Select Expand

  <ThingDef ParentName="BaseAnimal">
    <defName>Muffalo</defName>
    <label>Muffalo</label>
    <description>A large herding herbivore descended from buffalo and adapted for some exotic environment. Peaceful unless disturbed.</description>
    <maxHealth>160</maxHealth>
    <overdraw>true</overdraw>
    <sunShadowInfo>
      <baseWidth>0.6</baseWidth>
      <baseHeight>0.6</baseHeight>
      <tallness>0.6</tallness>
    </sunShadowInfo>
    <targetHitChanceFactor>2.0</targetHitChanceFactor>
    <race>
      <thinkTree>HerbivoreHerd</thinkTree>
      <walkSpeed>0.47</walkSpeed>
      <meleeDamage>10</meleeDamage>
      <hungerThreshold>80</hungerThreshold>
      <bodySize>1.8</bodySize>
      <diet>Herbivorous</diet>
      <wildBiomes>
        <li>XericShrubland</li>
      </wildBiomes>
      <soundCallIntervalRange>
        <min>3500</min>
        <max>6000</max>
      </soundCallIntervalRange>
      <soundWounded>Pawn_Muffalo_Wounded</soundWounded>
      <soundDeath>Pawn_Muffalo_Death</soundDeath>
      <soundCall>Pawn_Muffalo_Call</soundCall>
      <soundAngry>Pawn_Muffalo_Angry</soundAngry>
      <soundMeleeHitPawn>Pawn_Melee_BigBash_HitPawn</soundMeleeHitPawn>
      <soundMeleeHitBuilding>Pawn_Melee_BigBash_HitBuilding</soundMeleeHitBuilding>
      <soundMeleeMiss>Pawn_Melee_BigBash_Miss</soundMeleeMiss>
    </race>
  </ThingDef>

Cause the error said you were missing a PawnKindDefs if i'm not mistaking.

I had both, I eventually fixed the issue after screwing around with it for awhile. Thanks for the replies.
