What is this mod?

If the name and logo didn't tick you off, this mod aims to add a whole slew of dinosaurs and prehistoric creatures that have appeared in the Jurassic Park/World franchise to the distant rimworlds we all know and hate love so dearly! As an avid long time fan of the series, and having spied multiple requests from people asking about dinosaur mods, I thought I might give it a go.

What do you have planned?

One can expect to see the big names in here, Tyrannosaurus rex, Spinosaurus aegyptiacus, Indominus rex, Velociraptor sornaensis... but you can also expect some lesser dinosaurs you may not have heard of or were aware they were also apart of the franchise, such as Proceratosaurus bradleyi, meant to appear on the original Isla Nublar, or Tanystropheus longobardicus, who appeared solely in the toyline released in 1994! Whilst I am rather confident at adding animals I can however say I am less confident in other areas, nevertheless, I would like to make fences and decor reminiscent of that in Jurassic Park/World, such as braziers, signs and even the famous gate, and consider other things that might be interesting along the way, such as dino fan traits (and appropriate buffs), music, and events!

For a definite idea of what I do have planned, however, check the list below. These are ones that will be made, but some others that I will make down the line are surprises!

• Tyrannosaurus rex
• Velociraptor sornaensis
• Triceratops horridus
• Brachiosaurus altithorax
• Parasaurolophus walkeri
• Spinosaurus aegyptiacus
• Dilophosaurus wetherilli
• Pachycephalosaurus wyomingensis
• Stegosaurus stenops
• Pteranodon longiceps
• Ankylosaurus magniventris
• Gallimimus bullatus
• Indominus rex

What have you done so far?

Dilophosaurus! Working with custom sounds, spawning in the right biomes and has the chance to give your colonists a nasty toxic bite. Only thing I haven't yet figured out is the egg laying mechanics, but other than that, it works like a charm!

AS OF 19/07/2017: see progression map below for more goodies and content!

What can I do to help?

Ideas! Ideas, ideas and more ideas, I love brainstorming and coming up with proposals with other people and nothing gets me more raring to go than being given a great suggestion that I'd love to see come to fruition. Dinosaur species, different decor and more, I will almost always give it a go. As I am more confident adding simple things, items and pawns will have more of a chance to actually be made over other ideas, however, I'll still look into things if people really want a certain thing to be included!

As such, modding tips and tricks are super welcome. As this mod grows bigger, I also welcome feedback and balancing ideas if it gets out of hand. I use Rimworld as a peaceful colony sim ala Animal Crossing style more than anything else, so my idea of balancing is a little out of whack. That's where all you wonderful people come in to remind me that Rimworld is all about mowing down a crap ton of raiders and stealing their organs so you can get a sweet deal from dodgy traders whilst feeding that sweet succulent human meat to your starving prisoners, and that if you shoot a dinosaur in the face, you expect it to die, not become your friend.

I hope I can deliver a good mod down the road, and I hope some of you will join me on this mod's journey!

Awh yiss, all the Dinosaurs!

I personally probably wouldn't play this mod however who the fuck doesn't love dinosaurs! Just like another mod I found, this one could benefit if one was Roleplaying, by having its own unique land specific for Dinosaurs and humans. Kinda like the actual Jurassic Park movie, off on a island with deep jungle and flat lands with human structures.

Good job though, it looks great!

If you need help for the code regarding animals, either pm me or write it there, I will try to help. For the egglaying mechanism for example.

Keep up the good job and please do not hesitate if I can help :p

Well isn't this just SPOOKY? I was just thinking of how necessary dino's were in A17 this weekend. If you don't complete this, I will punish you in the cruellest manners possible.

Good luck :)

I am honoured your first comment is on this thread, you silly boo.

Ahh, thank you! Admittedly I do sort of RP in a sense with Rimworld so that may or may not have inspired this mod somewhat.

I would appreciate help with the egg laying very much! I got it to work a few alphas ago but I took a long break after that and when I came back, all my modding experience had flown out the window.

Kinky~

I'm trying my best to complete it, though! I'll more than likely release a version when I have enough substance ala maybe ten dinosaurs or more and some new mechanics and decor to work with. I'm just slow because I have to figure out how all this coding works, haha.

Following this. Can't wait to see how it turns out.

Wahey! Lots of operation genesis references in there! Looking good

As an example here are some modded eggs (https://github.com/kaptain-kavern/CK_AnimalPlant_Pack/blob/master/Defs/ThingDefs_Items/Items_Resource_Eggs.xml) from my TropiCKAPP Rainforest mod - The vanilla ones can be found in Core/Defs/ThingDefs_Items/Items_Resource_AnimalProduct.xml

The whole Unfertilized part is optional (in fact in vanilla it is only used for chickens), if you skip it there will be no unfertilized eggs

In <graphicData> you can use a custom texture with <texPath>

And of course you need to reference the egg-laying ability in the animal <ThingDef> with a <comps> like in here (https://github.com/kaptain-kavern/CK_AnimalPlant_Pack/blob/master/Defs/ThingDefs_Races/Races_Animal_Birds.xml#L119) (From the same mod as the last example) :

Dawww - cannot wait for this. Let me know if you need a hand with anything :) Testing, art, coding, xml editing - I'm rather versatile...

Actually, come to think of it, I've thought of a rather nifty way in way you could mine for amber, to extract Dino DNA at a custom lab bench. Give me a holler if you fancy the notes.

JP:OG was and still is my go-to Jurassic Park game, played it when it first came out on PS2 and I haven't put it down since! Gotta have the references in there. You must have read my mind though, I was going to push the last update to contain fossils or amber which you could build things with (the skeletons) but the DNA idea has me intruiged, honestly.

My test guineapig at the moment was disappointed that he couldn't tame dinosaurs without some level of difficulty which is understandable because hell yeah, dinosaurs, but I imagine they aren't going to be the friendliest of things to wander up to and attempt to tame. I don't know if it's possible with .xml only but I do kind of like the idea of getting amber, extracting it for DNA, and using that DNA to make eggs of certain dinosaurs that automatically join your colony when they hatch. I'd be down for some notes on that, definitely.

And again, can't thank you enough, kaptain_kavern, you're the real MVP.

NP - Simple process really, Amber ore generated in map akin to other ores, once amber's mined, can then be used at a special DNA Extraction Stationwith a custom workgiver that produces randomised Dino DNA once the process is complete (would require a colonist to stand there doing their magic, like any standard tool table really). That DNA can then be used in a Dino Egg style recipe at a Hatchery Station, exactly the same as before, but this time round it produces the relevant dino egg. Pop the egg down somewhere, and voila, baby dinos!

Hey, you're welcome mate, my pleasure. The more mods we have the more I'm happy ;-)

I'm a big fan of Jurassic Park myself (more the two books by M. Crichton than the films, but as someone born in the 80's, I've seen the first movie as a child and had my "dinomania period" after ^^)

_______________

Regarding the previously discussed mechanics, that seems doable with XML only, if you'd ask me ;)

Modded "ore", modded building (made like the multi-analyzer) that require "amber" to be construct. This building unlock a (or several) research projects. Those projects unlocks recipe that produce fertilized eggs :p

---

As a bonus : you can also have a look at the XML code for hive. You'll find that they have a function (I'm not sure but I think it is a <comps>) made to just "spawn" a Thingdef every x ticks if you want to have a building that spawn eggs ;-p

Genius. An automated hatchery! Could be a research tree jobby

Ahaha great choice of pawn for your screenshot :)

Alrighty, so I spent a while messing around with the mod and the whole idea of taking amber and then using DNA to reconstruct eggs that you could place in a hatchery and then get baby dinosaurs that are easier to tame, and got so far before I've run into a roadblock that's giving me a serious headache. First off, amber 'ore' can be found in any generated world akin to any other mineral. They give out roughly two amber per block give or take. I have then made an amber extraction workbench where you take two amber and turn it into a strand of DNA (has it's own unfinished def too) that I would then like to further refine into an egg.

This is where the issues come in. I duplicated all that I did since I wanted the workflow to be sort of the same. I duplicated the extraction bench and renamed it along the lines of DNA reconstruction bench. I duplicated the work giver def, the recipes, I made the unfinished egg def and the finished egg def (which is a duplicate of a normal dinosaur egg given to a duplicate of the normal dinosaur race, just with 0% wildness so you can tame it ASAP) and every other def and thing that it needs to work and it went fine, nothing exploded, and it all seems to go swell up until the pawn actually goes to do the work. They pick up the DNA, they take it to the bench, and then the game throws me this error.

It seems that it doesn't recognise the duplicated egg as a thing it can produce, I think. It's probably super simple but I cannot for the life of me figure it out and I don't want to risk messing with anything else in case that all messed up, too.

care to show some actual files? 8) especially the recipe one I suspect.

Yup! Attached all the files that I think have something to do with the error, as they're all the ones I duplicated and made before this error started popping up. If you need any more files, please let me know. ;A;

This looks really really awesome right now.
And I am sure it would go well together with the Megafauna and Cthullhu Mod to create epic animal battles  :o

But as a fan of Modular Mods I have to ask :
Could you seperate it into different sections ?

- Buildings
- Animals and their Support
- Weapons and Clothes ( if you are going to create them )

This way you could create some pre-releases for us to beta-test,
others could pick features from your mod, the would maybe not use if the package is to big and
changes to much.
And I could put those awesome statues in my colony and use the lights and the helipad for my OHU Airfield :)

Now either I'm being slow (likely), or I cant actually see any link between your recipe, the bench, and the DoBillsReconstructDNA work_giver.

The error is related to the DoBillsReconstructDNA - and the fact it cant find the right objectref. I've had this before, be buggered sideways if I can remember what it was though.

I'm on my phone right know but I will look into it. The error seems like vaguely familiar but I can't recall (seen too much since I start modding) but my wild guesses are either the work giver or the recipe.

I will look into it and come back at you

Ahh, no need guys! Managed to figure it out myself! Everything was essentially all ready to go, unfortunately something so simple as a typo was what caused all that grievance. My game was trying to locate the pawn that would hatch from the duplicated, reconstructed egg, but it was trying to find TyrannosaurusReconstructed... which doesn't exist! It needed to find TyrannosaurusReconstruct instead!

Both the amber extraction bench and the DNA bench now work, and I would like to congratulate Nelson, a random lone explorer pawn who got shunted into my testing colony, for being the first person to reconstruct a Tyrannosaurus rex egg from amber and DNA on a distant rimworld. There is no end to the madness.

Not sure about weapons or clothes, since Jurassic Park/World never did seem to have that many stand out garments or weapons, buuut I can definitely look into a modular release, sure! My significant other was a little bummed out that I couldn't figure out how to patch the dinosaurs for Combat Extended since it uses new body stuff and all (tried, couldn't patch it, my head hurt just trying to understand it all) but I said I'd try and send him all the other stuff so, I guess I could do that for others too!

thank you also to all those who offered to help, I'm a klutz sometimes when it comes to modding haha

Gratz on finding it yourself, those +5 mood boni are hard to come by

And thank you for humoring me. I did not expect you to add weapons, but since it could possibly happen I said "if" ..

CE Sucks .. I don't know what the big fuzz is all about .. half of the mods I use are not compatible with it .. I guess, I never tried .. and the thought alone of figuring this out gives me nightmares.

It's nice you find out by yourself (better for the ego morale) ^^
It wasn't a easy one to spot
I like seeing this project progressing :-p

Bingo :)

Awesome update. You're progressing quite quickly ;-)

You can have a patch for including amber specifically in some merchants stock. Or you could even have a specific dinosaurs-theme modded; trader once you'll going to messes with factions (because I'm sure you will ;-p )

Again good works you've done there. Thank you

You got me. I wanted to look into making a trader that sells dinosaurs, amber and DNA. If I get that working I may forego amber as a building material, as generating a few worlds has suddenly left me with an awful lot of amber buildings strewn about, which would be fine if they didn't give so much out, haha. May have to look into reducing the commonality.

I have not a lot to do at the moment, so updates should hopefully keep coming quickly!

Nice :-D

If you're talking about walls being made of amber, here is some helps understanding how the game choose what stuff the ruins are made of : https://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?topic=33277.msg353525#msg353525

I think in your case you could just make the <stuff> for amber to being more flammable (indeed in vanilla there is no ruins walls made of woods) Or more expansive. (Again I can't recall seeing vanilla making plasteel walls)

Drool... so I'm cobbling together an electric fence system for you... it's done in c# so requires a .dll, but you're more than welcome to it if I get it up and running properly.

Will definitely look into that. I was tempted to make amber a tad bit more expensive too, been sort of just trying to balance everything coming up to a pre-release, so I can try that. I curiously went and had a look if amber is flammable, and it turns out it is! Amber lets off an incense-like aroma when burned (joy activity anyone?) but it technically doesn't melt or sort of dissipate, amber actually decomposes when you set it alight. You learn something new everyday, haha. In tune, I'll crank up the flammability. Thank you, man!

Duuuude, that would be sick. Thank you! I still need to grab the graphics for the fences (I can't seem to extract the fence model and texture from JPOG very well so I'll need to find something else as reference) but I was thinking of concrete fences and then, of course, the electric fence. Maybe an aviary fence and roof too for the flying buggers. I know they can't fly out but muh immersion.

Aye, that sounds pretty awesome.

At the moment, the fence will only damage pawns that attack them - I'm planning on trying to get it to repel them backwards 'ala 'Tim Toast'. Any requests on power consumption? It simply needs to be connected to the power grid at the mo.

That sounds great, man! If it's per fence piece I'm not sure what might be a good number. Maybe 5w per fence? Because that's a nice rounded number and it seem somewhat fair, it doesn't sound like a lot but obviously it'll add up, with the bigger the fence perimeter the more power it'll consume.

edit: I now have the image of Tim bloody repelling off the fence playing over and over in my head
sweet lemon tea it shouldn't be that funny

I think you should make amber a "small - type " ressource like silver and gold.

then you can set the number of ressources dropped on destruction or deconstruction.

Quote from: SpaceDorf on July 27, 2017, 08:05:54 AMI think you should make amber a "small - type " ressource like silver and gold.

Or .. you make it a own not stuffified wall type or building( compare it to the concrete walls )
then you can set the number of ressources dropped on destruction or deconstruction.

Definitely need to fix some of the stuff going on with amber, I think I just shunted any old resource def (think I copied the steel def?) in there to see if it would work. I think I'll make it akin to gold but a bit cheaper, with a higher flammability too.

Sorry for the lack of any big updates since last, I need to get my drawing game on and start making more dinosaurs. The majority of the graphics prior have taken less time because they're all things I've been able to extract from games such as JP:OG or the android/iPhone Jurassic World game, be they models, textures or both. I could probably shunt out about fifty dinosaurs if I just took pictures of the models from different angles, but they extract in non-natural poses due to their rigging, have disproportionate shapes compared to the vanilla art, meaning they'd stick out like a sore thumb, and I enjoy drawing cute Rimworld dinosaurs, so it takes a bit longer. It's all well and good having all this cool extra stuff, but not so good if I make a Jurassic Park mod with only a sprinkle of actual dinosaurs.

In the words of Ian Malcolm, eventually you do plan to have dinosaurs on your dinosaur tour, right?

Aye, that sounds pretty awesome.

At the moment, the fence will only damage pawns that attack them - I'm planning on trying to get it to repel them backwards 'ala 'Tim Toast'. Any requests on power consumption? It simply needs to be connected to the power grid at the mo.

That sounds great, man! If it's per fence piece I'm not sure what might be a good number. Maybe 5w per fence? Because that's a nice rounded number and it seem somewhat fair, it doesn't sound like a lot but obviously it'll add up, with the bigger the fence perimeter the more power it'll consume.

edit: I now have the image of Tim bloody repelling off the fence playing over and over in my head
sweet lemon tea it shouldn't be that funny

The fence itself just needs one set of power to run, BUT, you're right... it should cost PER tile... makes sense that longer stretches of fence cost more power. I'll look into it.

Thank you SpaceDorf for the recommendations and kaptain_kavern for more help yet again!

I told you I wanna help :-p

So does it solve the amber walls situation? :-D

Please take time for actually playing or relaxing, I would be sad to see you burning out ;-)

And I really do appreciate all the help, probably wouldn't have cranked so much content out if it hadn't been for the people commenting in this thread. Regarding the amber walls, it seems to have done the trick! Haven't seen another amber wall ever since I updated it with the new values and all.

I do get easily distracted, so playing it or any other game isn't going to be a problem, don't worry. I have a feeling I won't burn out so easily. Often I load Rimworld up to check something in-game that I can't decifer through .xml alone and then realise I spent two hours building up yet another test colony.

Plus, relaxing is what I do best. (https://i.imgur.com/LH9tnEq.gif)

Well, I for one think there should be a bonus mod where very rex does spawn with a guinea pig

I could do that, just for fun, but then I'd deliberately make it so that it wasn't compatible with Combat Extended just to purposely annoy and torment you.

love you <3

YaY moar dinos !

Your graphics are amazing, the dino food really looks disgusting :)

the dinos are cute too :)

Daaaw - looks beaut, can't wait to see it in action. I've not had a chance to hit up any more of the fence stuff, but I'll be on it over the next few days.

Have you looked at MiningCo's ( Rikiki ) Laser Fence ?
It could help.

This looks awesome I cant wait for the release :D

Cheers bud, I'll give it a look over!

Can't help but think the feeders should be connected to some sort of central device with a hopper. At least for the meat, fish, grubs, it could work like aquaculture...

If Rikiki permits it, I'd suggest using his laser fence in all honesty bud. It looks a lot more efficient than my wobbly piece of crap, and would only really need a couple of .png changes from yourself for the Fence pylons and the 'Wires'.

Never thought about that, but I did want the feeders to eliminate any hassle. Not really sure what you'd put into the feeder to begin with, will have to think about it.

This mod looks beautiful... I can't wait for the questing system to expand more and a procedural generated location based on these buildings is the base of that location.  :D

Could someone do me a solid and get in contact with the guy and ask if it's alright if could integrate that mod with my own? I don't have Rimworld on steam either, so if someone could get me that mod also, I'd appreciate it.

You are a saint, my dude.

Although if anyone could help on a certain thing, I'd appreciate it. Back in A16 I used a certain meerkat mod (https://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?topic=27782.0) that added in the aforementioned animal, but gave it seperate graphic classes for when it moves and when it stood still. Ideally with flying critters, aka pterosaurs, I would like something similar, so that when it moves it appears to glide, and it lands when stood still, but it seems the mod does not work with A17. Would anyone be able to help see if it's possible to update it to A17? It is C# so I'm slightly intimidated, haha.

demeggy where are you

Sounds like a Job for DoctorVanGogh or Oblitus , the both are quite active right now and also quite able in C#

this mod will be perfect for roleplaying and with the upcoming Jurassic World 2 movie i am happy to say i am exited as fuck for when this mod is released

Quote from: Serpyderpy on August 09, 2017, 11:10:01 AM

We have confirmation from BookBurner that their electric fence mod can be integrated into this mod! Thank you ever so much!

All that I understand (but cannot do) is that the Assembly need to be recompiled for the new version.    :-s

Appreciate it! Working on the aviary stuff right now actually, and it's a major pain in the ass. Rimworld definitely wasn't designed to have visible rooves.

My brain is starting to frazzle. Has anyone had the issue where you can install about 100+ mods and they all work fine but then you add in one more specific mod and after the loading screen upon initialization it just ends up completely black? And no matter what order it's in or if you take mods out or add more in it doesn't change unless you have that mod and that mod alone alongside core and other stuff that doesn't really change or add much?

Because that's happening with my mod right now. The only things I've been able to have running alongside it are, obviously, Core, and HugsLib, Mod List Backup, JecsTools, EdB Prepare Carefully and Camera+. Any other mod and I get the black screen of death. Anyone know what might make this happen? Something I added in my mod that the game can't handle? I checked every def and it all seems to be configured right, I just can't think what could be causing it and it's frustrating. :c

It could be Jectools in itself. If ya don't need it, just ditch it ;)

Else, As always, I wanna help buddy. And this time it's code, so I bet I can help.

Care to share your prototype for debugging?

Changing the mod order didn't seem help, nor did getting rid of JecsTools, so.

Will have a look this evening or tomorrow.

OK doke. Dully noted.

You should see some prototypes of mine lol ;-)

Thank you! Now I am curious about your prototypes, haha. I really did want to get to a pre-realease before putting it out there with some polish, my impartial perfectionist self almost demanded it, but, I'm stumped, so, a prototype it is for now.

Oh before I start, do you happen to know how to use github by chance? Could speed up the teamwork and permits me to correct bugs (if I managed to) own by one with proper comments. But if not no problem, I'll resend you the corrected files

@demegy: Most of those error came from a double <tradeTags> in Tyranosaurus_reconstruct xml files, line 91.

I'm currently debugging the remaining yellow bugs at start before trying to launch a game for real ^^ (no black-screens for now)

Still correcting, mostly missing closing tags and little errors like that o7

-snip-

That's... a lot. I swear I must have done something that's caused other mods to freak out too, hence why none of them even work, but I honestly can't even figure out what. Everything I made I tried to make it it's own so it didn't rely on anything else. Although looking at those errors, I may take a second look at how I made traders and orbitals. I knew I'd eventually screw up somewhere when modding but I didn't realise this bad. D:

QuoteOh before I start, do you happen to know how to use github by chance? Could speed up the teamworks and permits me to correct bugs (if I managed to) own by one with proper comments. But if not no problem, I'll resend you the corrected files

Afraid I don't, though I could always look into setting one up! I changed my profile so that anyone can see and now send me a message via email, so if you need to resend at all you can get in touch with me through there. I appreciate your help, though.

Hey, no problems.

So, aside from some bugs related to the Indominus not been properly finished (I just disabled it for now), I have now no errors at start. Will try to launch a game now. Finger crossed ^^

Ok, done.

It was just that. Some tags were not properly closed.

Also, the Indominus has eggs defined in its own defs but the eggs are not defined in the "egg file" so the game throws an error for that.

edit: I left comments in the code for you to see what I've added. It was just that

Probably should have mentioned that the Indominus wasn't really finished, haha! I mostly threw it in there early on when I was making 'the big three' (Rex, Spino and Indy), I think to check the draw size but I never finished the textures, and also see if the sounds worked and sounded good? Hence all the eggy stuff throwing me errors. I just copy-pasta'd the rex defs and used the replace function, I think.

But holy crap, man, thank you ever so much! Give me a bit to get some money so I can throw a couple of beers or coffees or whatever your way, dude! I had a sneaky suspicion that it was something to do with tags, I struggle with them a lot. You'd think someone who has visual struggles looking at very busy texts wouldn't pick up modding as a hobby, but apparently I'm a glutton for punishment. ._.

Sorry bud, I've been next to no help so far other than a lot of 'I'll get on with this for you'!

Either way, what DOES work so far is amazing. The artwork, especially the dinos - is outrageously fantastic. I'm going to do a bit of bug testing for you now, get a small process chain up and running. I'll feed back as I come along things.

Still need me to do some research on the avian pawns?

Yes please! Thank you, though, I've always enjoyed drawing but never have I been able to replicate anything realistic. When I saw Rimworld's graphics and the simplicity of them I knew I could replicate them. My confidence art wise has been severely knocked over the years, so it's nice to hear so many people like the graphic part of this mod!

please release a pre-release download so I can test and play around :)

If you download the prototype and the .xml kaptain_kavern has attached to his posts and replace the corresponding .xmls in the mod folder, you can get it working. Again, buggy, unfinished and unpolished, but you could play around with it that way. I still need to finish my dinosaur list and a few extra things first before I release the initial public version.

Sorry for not replying or updating this thread for a bit, not been doing so good mentally. Just need to push myself to finish the art for the dinosaurs and everything should be good to go for the pre-release.

Hopefully we'll have music, turrets and tranq mechanics. Just need to get off my ass and actually remember to, you know, function. ._.

We count on you :p

Courage!

You need a giant arch gate like in JP 1!

What a great way to change the way RimWorld plays. Dinosaur park management? What better way to sow chaos. I'm just here to wish you luck and support my good man. *hat tip*

Got one.

Man, I love your mods, it's an honour to have you comment on mine. I appreciate the support, I hope I won't let you guys down.

Quotewhere is download link so i can help test this fantastic beast!

Back a few pages you can download the prototype and if you grab the .xml's kaptain_kavern fixed you can get yourself a working but still kinda unfinished and buggy version of the mod to test.

So I picked the mod back up slowly but surely and added a few things, buildings, tweaked a few values and such, attempted to make a tranquilizer rifle and all went well until actually shooting the damn thing. I get this as an error in-game. The log that appears when I open the game has no error relating to anything regarding the gun, so I assume everything else is fine.

It's not really being burned out on this project, more like being just, burned out on life, y'know? Like you wake up and just, don't want to do anything at all.

Awesome work!

PLEASE NO MUSIC! Music is very memory intensive when it comes to Rimworld. It uses memory to load all music files at the start. Music burns memory in Rimworld!

I know. I probably should have clarified that it'll be a seperate module one can download. I know some people have other mods that may have music in them or just a bunch of wild mod combos where they may not even want my mod music at all. I must be lucky, since I've never run into any memory issues in all my time using custom music, but I guess that's another reason to make it seperate.

I think it will be fair to note that predatory dinosaurs and the Jurassic park itself should be not only passive defense but also an extremely dangerous undertaking for the colonists! Do you have any or will there be plants? How about the idea that the number of predators of different species (at the time of birth) is limited to the number of herbivores.

Certain predatory dino's I can see taking on would be a challenge. I mean you could basically have it that they're a tank like a Thrumbo, you have to plan to take one of those out cause they have a lot of HP to whittle down.

I will clarify. Situation: I have a park with dinosaurs, surrounded by a wall or a fence. I am attacked by raiders and they broke into the park. Predators partially killed Raiders, partially died themselves. BUT. But the fence or the wall is destroyed. Dinosaurs will have to crawl along the entire map. And of course, before that, devour all the corpses of the Raiders, and the colonists who will get out.
And, as far as I remember, in the movie, the dinosaurs were very smart. At least they should see the spoils through the walls. To feel it through 2-3 layers of ordinary walls. And of course, break down and make their way through them to kill and eat colonists.
I really liked the idea of mod. But seeing the name of the modification "Jurassic Park" I see that this modification should be a chore, And for this, we need a mod, like a fog of war, but only on animals. It's cool !! I know that I have penetrated the perimeter of the park (raiders, whether it's bursting, or a dinosaur (with a low voltage of the fence network)), but I do not know where the predators are and I do not know if they are hungry ...
And yes ... The population, really does not need to be regulated! It's even more interesting ... Do not know exactly how many there are...
In the fog of war on animals, you need cameras! ))

Best to get this mod here

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=759219409

adds a wildlife tab which you can open and view all the creatures on the current map be they herbivore or carnivore.

I'm not dead. I promise.

I just fell out with Rimworld for a while (I think modding a game tends to sometimes burn you out more than actually playing it) but, I think I'm getting back in it's good books. I'll piddle around with A18 for a bit longer and then see if I can go about updating my mod.

I got distracted by others games and also got super into invert keeping, so that's been a rather expensive preoccupant of my time.

Sorry I went AWOL, guys.

Nice to hear from you again

Sweet, I keep waiting to try this but maybe now once the errors are fixed up. Mostly I just want dinos roaming my maps so happy to have any and all mods that do that :D  (CE compatibility will be important once it's ready of course)

Quote from: Serpyderpy on November 21, 2017, 05:44:48 AM

Update time!

Putting the mod into B18 didn't explode like I thought it would, and things surprisingly work alright. I need to change a few things to stop the multitude of red errors from appearing on start-up, but none of these errors seem to actually affect the game in actuality. it still works fine. They're things like changing the root elements, designation categories and a few, now case sensitive tags, I think.

I've noticed a few dinosaur mods have popped up in my absence so I'm hoping people are still somewhat interested in this mod, but I don't blame people if they got their fix elsewhere when I disappeared. That said, I'll still try and update shit and add in things, dinosaurs, buildings and other stuff, that the others haven't, so that people could potentially add in both or even more mods and get the best out of all of them.

I'll try and get rid of the errors first, I think. Then I'll work towards making more dinosaurs, and try to see if I can get a hold of the aviary domes I was struggling with back in A17. I think after that I'll just add in some cosmetics and try to balance things out. Maybe decorative foliage and other exhibit things so you can have plants without having to grow them or watch them die when they're under rooves. Some rocks, maybe waterfalls, stuff like that. Then hopefully we can go for a proper release, and I'll update it from there on out. Wonder if I can get it out before Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom releases, haha. I know my procrastination could make that a possibility.

And to make sure this post isn't just hopeful writing on the wall, I've left you with quite a few teasers that I'll stick at the end of the post. I hope that it'll do in the absence of any content for a long while. I can't apologise enough for going AWOL. I got distracted, and then life got kinda tough. Anyway, enjoy the sneak-peaks!

I think there is only 2 currently. Yours and Dinosauria~

Yay! You're back!

Will there be a way to disable roaming dino's? I would like to just be able to only engineer them rather than worry about the ones roaming the world.

QuoteWill there be a way to disable roaming dino's? I would like to just be able to only engineer them rather than worry about the ones roaming the world.

I think the easiest way to do that would be to go into the race defs and disable the non-engineered dinosaurs from spawning by setting <wildSpawn_spawnWild>true</wildSpawn_spawnWild> to false, though doing that manually takes a while. However, since people have expressed favour in having a modulated, pick n' mix release, I'll see if I can make that happen.

I've been ironing out errors as I go, and I've added a few more things like decor in, too. I'll do another update reveal after I've amassed quite a bit of content, I'm still slowly sinking back into the pit of coding and drawing so it'll hopefully pick up some speed.

Oh, and the trailer for Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom drops today!

Well the mod looks amazing. I havnt added it to my list yet but intend to with my next playthough.

Alright, I need input. I've tried for a while to make a functional aviary and I have finally managed to get it to look right. It has to be constructed a very specific way, unfortunately, but it's the best I can honestly do to make it work. I need to finish the large aviary and we should be good on that front... but after messing with the water shaders, my question is, how does everyone feel about tanks?

I imagine I could make it by attempting to apply a water shader to a square that acts as the top layer of water, and then the floor would be shallow water. You could still potentially walk into the tank though, a tad immersion breaking, but there would be no way around that, I think, as my knowledge is strictly .xml. However I don't want to exert effort if it isn't something people will mess around with. Underwater creatures are interesting but it's an extra bunch of stuff and I'm not sure if it's worth the effort.


A small aviary holding a Yi. You have to place a feeder nearby ideally and stockpile food inside rather than putting the feeder in the exhibit, as the entirety of the inside is used up by the roof. This adds a bit of challenge, as hungry dinosaurs will attack. Keep your stocks up!

The floor is an evergreen floor that has a jungle texture so your aviaries don't look so deprived of life. You can also use it in your outdoor exhibits to encourage your dinosaurs to eat from the feeder, as it'll destroy all the plant life as you place it down.

Input is appreciated!

Wow! That looks great! As long as the assembling of it isnt crazy elaborate Im certain it wont be an issue with anyone. Concerning the tanks, I personally dont know that water dinos bring much to the table as far as gameplay unless there were a way to transfer them to open sea.

Not complicated at all to build!

I've been coding mostly these last few weeks. I've rectified the issue I had with egg laying at some point, so female dinosaurs now wait until they're fertilised instead of attempting to lay an egg which would then result in an error message. I've also had to go through all of the pre-existing sound definitions to change them over, because I was a) sick of the map context error after a while although it didn't seem to deter anything and b) at some point every single custom sound just stopped working so I went back and redid them using the new core definitions.

There's not much that I can really show dinosaur wise at the moment, the new graphics are mostly outlines that I have yet to colour. I'm trying to juggle both coding and drawing and wondering what to prioritise. The biggest issue I have at the moment is the recipes for extracting DNA and reconstructing it just won't register anymore for me, the recipes are there but clicking on them does nothing. I really don't want to re-do the recipes again as it's tedious but considering that I'm already having to do the sounds it looks like that might be my only option.

There's a few sneaky things I can preview though, to bide you over until a bigger update:


For perspective, there are now about 40 dinosaur species that have been coded to appear in the game. Some are famous, some are obscure, most if not all so far have appeared in the Jurassic Park universe at some point, but eventually this mod will incorporate other dinosaurs in it, too, because there ain't no point restricting some of the raddest prehistoric creatures out there just because it hasn't showed up in the universe yet. I have tried to make unique sound sets for as many dinosaurs as possible. I need to actually make their graphics beyond the placeholders, but all of them work fine as of now.

Man this mod looks so damn AMAZING! Any chances of us please getting an update, sir? ;D

Well, I live, that's one update, haha. I took a big break for my own sake, health reasons, etc. Slowly I've begun to work on this mod again as JW:FK looms ever closer. I've added more dinosaurs, fixed recipes, and I'm starting to just add more content as I see fit now.

To anyone reading this, I'm now quite active within the Rimworld discord and if this thread ever seems dead, I'll probably be all the way over there ranting about something or showing off some squiggly lines. If you join, find me in the #rimworld-art subchannel, and feel free to talk to me via DM too. I don't mind - or bite!

I'll try and update here too but it won't be as frequent as my ramblings over there. So if this thread ever seems to die, just realise I'm probably out there in silence drawing dino butts or something.

Potentially, but they seem to be faring quite well on their own, and I'd rather get this mod out of the way before I work on anything else.

So, I might have missed this somewhere- and probably have- but is there a download for this anywhere? It sounds awesome and I'd love to add it to my game!

Let me be honest: whom should I kill to get the link?)
I really want to download and try this mod - it looks awesome! But the old Dropbox link is obsolete :(

It's not up for download just yet, but we're getting there! In fact, we're almost in beta testing. I've created a discord server recently, hopefully this can keep people in touch and up to date with what's going off with the mod. I've added it to the OP, but I'll link it here. Come join in and talk some time!
