Use the butcher knife and have mushrooms and berries in your inventory and use it.

It usually takes : building a fence, luring it in, going away so it settles down, then approach stealthily, let it eat, hang around ; it should then have some heart <3 popping above it. The heart means the taming process has started. It takes something around 30-45 minutes irl to complete.

thx, it seems to just get angry as soon as i get close to the shelter but ill drop some mushroom and see if something happens

how do you make a butcher knife ?

dropped a stack of mushrooms, green heart popping up
gets angry as soon as i get close, im guessing that ill just have to stay in range just to make sure he doesnt despawn

It has begun
If you intend to leave the area for longer times, make sure you have workbench(es) covering the area so that the feed does not despawn.

The food you left them. Items dropped on the ground disappear after an hour unless left inside a workbench's build radius. (And maybe other things, but I'm not sure about that)

They won't despawn, but the taming will pause if you get too far away. Recommend you gather nearby resources to keep busy while you wait. Massive amounts of wood are always in demand.

its proper english but i was looking for a more elaborate response on the actual feed, i guess ill just have to drop stuff on the ground

Just click on your boar food in your inventory and drag it out into the environment and let go - this will toss the food onto the ground.

but i havent caught it yet, a runestone said i need to feed it to catch it

Create a fenced/walled-in area to contain the boar. Throw raspberries at it once it gets caught inside. Walk far enough away that it can't see you. It will then calm down, eat the food, and begin taming.

It takes roughly 30 minutes to tame a creature, and you need to be in the general area for it to count (close enough that it doesn't visually despawn).
