</>What does Shark Whisperer (Peaceful Sharks) do?
Sharks in Raft are relentless. They circle. They bite. They destroy hours of carefully placed foundations while you're busy crafting a water purifier. It's exhausting. Shark Pacifist turns Bruce into a gentle giant. Toggle off boat attacks and watch sharks swim peacefully around your raft without taking a single bite. Toggle off player attacks and you can swim freely without becoming a snack. Each protection works independently - maybe you want the challenge of defending your raft but hate getting chomped in the water. Or maybe you want complete peace while you focus on building your floating mansion. The sharks are still there. They're just... reformed. They've found inner peace. They're doing yoga now.
</>What is Shark Whisperer (Peaceful Sharks)?
Sharks are Raft's defining stress source — they circle endlessly, bite your foundations, and ruin building sessions. Shark Whisperer (Peaceful Sharks) gives you two independent toggles to turn that off. No Raft Attacks stops sharks biting your raft (foundations stay intact, build sessions go uninterrupted). No Player Attacks stops them attacking you in the water (dive, swim, explore without getting chomped). Mix them — keep raft danger active but swim safely, or just pick total peace and treat the ocean like a creative-mode pool. Built in-house by ProjectMods, the community-first game modding platform and desktop app.
</>Common questions about Shark Whisperer (Peaceful Sharks)
What does Shark Whisperer (Peaceful Sharks) do in Raft?
It disables shark attacks via two independent toggles in the ProjectMods options panel. No Raft Attacks stops sharks biting your raft, so foundations stay intact and build sessions go uninterrupted. No Player Attacks stops sharks attacking you in the water, so you can dive, swim, and explore without getting bitten. Sharks still spawn and circle the area; they're just harmless now. Built specifically for players who like Raft's atmosphere but find the constant shark interruptions exhausting, especially during long build sessions or chill ambient runs.
Can I make sharks peaceful only to my raft, not me?
Yes — that's why the toggles are independent. Enable No Raft Attacks alone and sharks stop biting your raft, but they'll still attack you if you go in the water. So your build sessions go uninterrupted but swimming back from islands stays risky. Or flip it: enable No Player Attacks alone for safe swimming while sharks still threaten the raft, keeping the survival pressure on the build but freeing your exploration. The Shark Whisperer mod from ProjectMods is built around this kind of partial-peace customization.
Will sharks still spawn with this mod active?
Yes. Shark Whisperer (Peaceful Sharks) doesn't despawn or remove sharks — they still spawn, circle the raft, and look threatening. They just can't actually hurt you or your raft when the relevant toggles are on. So the ocean still feels populated and atmospheric (which is part of what makes Raft work) but the threat layer is removed. Useful when you want the visual presence of sharks without the constant gameplay interruption. Combine it with the JAWS (Sharks Grow) mod if you want giant peaceful sharks for chaotic atmospheric vibes.
Is Shark Whisperer (Peaceful Sharks) reversible?
Yes, fully. Toggle either option off in the ProjectMods options panel and sharks resume normal Raft behavior immediately — biting raft, attacking players, doing all the chase mechanics. Your save isn't permanently changed; the mod just keeps the sharks calm while the toggle is on. Useful for players who want peaceful sessions on demand and threat-active sessions otherwise, without committing to one mode. Pair the two toggles however suits the moment — full peace for build sessions, full threat for survival runs.
Does Shark Whisperer (Peaceful Sharks) work in co-op multiplayer Raft?
Yes — host-side. Whoever runs the Raft session controls whether sharks attack, and the peace settings apply to every player on the raft. Other players don't need the mod installed; they just experience the peaceful sharks directly. Useful for co-op runs where the group agrees to skip the shark threat during a long build project, or for chill ambient sessions where everyone just wants to drift. Mods can behave differently across Raft patch states though, so test a short co-op session before relying on it for a long playthrough.
