CoFlo Posted December 13, 2025 Report Posted December 13, 2025 Hi everyone, I have many years of experience in commercial game development, both professionally and for fun. I recently developed a strong liking for Vintage Story. I’ve become familiar with the modding API and would like to create something valuable. However, I’m not sure what the community is requesting or if something similar has already been done. Perhaps I should just play the game more and figure out what I want to create. If anyone has advice on where to find ideas or requests, please let me know.
Crabsoft Posted December 13, 2025 Report Posted December 13, 2025 (edited) I think the forums had a bit of a shuffle at some point, but you're probably looking for the subforum of Making Mods. https://www.vintagestory.at/forums/forum/34-mod-requestsideas/ . In a similar boat to you, I decided to go for something that would put us into a limited pool of games that streamers are choosing. With any luck, we'll become the new kid on the block and get some exposure. The next big update appears to be somewhat fishing-focused, so I'd avoid that. Maybe just look at the roadmap and pick something farfetched? Bringing tomorrow to you today?! Edit: Also, obvs, the Suggestions forum is where people say the quiet part out loud.

Odur27 Posted January 3 Report Posted January 3 I had someone talk to me about an amazing idea today, VS Villages meets Fantasy Creatures. The idea is having Hostile NPC Cities/Villages/encampments spawn, that the player could then raid and or siege. Orks and Goblins are the 2 main races in the Fantasy Creatures mods but a forest with many Tree Ents would be interesting as well. I would gladly try to tackle something like this my self but my skills are very much lacking. Aged wooden structures with rustic jagged clutter would be my vision. Rusty spikes and piles of dirty disused copper- iron age clutter. Maybe with variable modular sized encampments with sentries and patrols based on difficulty/technology tier. A Big bad stronghold with some sort of orc shaman or something at the end would also be interesting.
