Prehistoric Rising World Mod - Work in Progress (Environment Texture Files Released)

Quote from sharkbitefischer

just starting up the game I never get to the loby and the game crashes.

zip file says unexpected ending so will try to redownload it.

If you are unable to read the zip file it must have been a corrupted download.
Have downloaded it 3 times and works fine my end.

The file should be 64.4 MB in size

If you can't open the zip file Rising World will not open it either.

Seems to work fine. The ores realy pop out it seems. Am using an old world but seems to check out.

Good to hear its working now......

Environment Texture Files for Prehistoric Rising World has been given an update to V1.1.
Fixes texture of fruit and vegetables when you are eating them.

Download link on page 1 for this 78 MB zip file.

When testing the new textures I wandered down the side of a mountain and quenched my thirst at a small pond at the bottom of the mountain slope.

All was going well as I was sipping the water from the pond.

Suddenly I find that something is attacking me.

I turn around and not only do I see a wild boar close up attacking me as I drank but there were another 2 of them coming straight towards me.

I didn't think it could get worse..... but it did.

As I was retreating backwards looking back at the 3 boars.... I suddenly get hit from behind by a grizzly bear that had come up behind me.

Lets just say the bear finished me off quickly.

How did I get so lucky as to be attacked by 3 boar and a grizzly?

In settings I have the spawn rate for both animals and bandits set at 200%.
Oh that is going to be difficult.

I can't even drink a little water without being attacked by 4 ferocious animals.

Work on the T-Rex model is progressing well........ below is a list of the potential dinosaurs that make it into the mod. The first 6 in the list below are definitely in the mod.

Please let me know of any dinosaurs you think should really be in the mod.

Tyrannosaurus Rex
Velociraptor
Triceratops
Stegosaurus
Brachiosaurus
The Compi - Compsognathus

Parasaurolophus
Indominus Rex
Spinosaurus
Pachycephalosaurus
Ankylosaurus
Dilophosaurus

My plans for the dinosaurs will be tested with the T-Rex but what I am hoping to do is to have them in the mod with pathing functions included allowing for the models to move around.

Each dinosaur will have it's own sound. I think I will have Goosebumps if I hear a T-Rex sound during the game.

While I was hoping to have the Pterodactyl as well I don't think there is a way to add a flying animal at this stage.

I have to look at the code to see if each dinosaur has the ability to react differently to the players.

While the Brontosaurus is less likely to attack you, those such as the Compi and Velociraptor will attack if you are in their area.

The bigger T-Rex and Spinosaurus will hopefully sense you from further away and come crashing towards you.

As yet I don't know if any of the above is possible but this is where I am aiming to go with this mod.

how about something for the water? megladon I think it is

Noted.....

With the large dinosaurs such as the T-Rex and Spinosaurus I would love them to be able to push over trees as they move forward.

This may be wishful thinking on my part.

Quote from sharkbitefischer

If something in the api is needed then talk to @res51 and I am positive he will try to provide something

I am about to get my head around the API....... have a request open in the Plugin API section for some example code but not sure Red has seen it.

The mod is going to have a totally revamped food system......

65 million years ago :

Tomatoes were the size of berries;
Potatoes were no bigger than peanuts.
Corn was a wild grass with hard kernels in clusters as small as pencil erasers.
Cucumbers were as spiny as sea urchins;
Lettuce was bitter and prickly.
Peas were so starchy and unpalatable and had to be roasted like chestnuts and peeled.
Sea kale was a tough and tongue-curling leafy weed that grew along the temperate sea coasts.
Carrots were scrawny.
Beans were naturally laced with cyanide.

With the new animals I did forget 3 animals that will defintely be in the mod:

- Wooly Mammoth
- Sabre-tooth Tiger
- Wooly Rhino

Can you imagine getting your wool from a mammoth or rhino instead of a sheep

I may also add the 10 foot birds called Phorusrhacids or Terror Birds to the mod..... they were extremely dangerous predators which were around for 58 million years..... which is a long time.

This means I will have reptiles, mammals and birds featured in the mod.

With Rising World, you can deselect and remove bears, tigers, pigs, etc. before playing the game.

My plan is to remove all vanilla animals with my mod and replace with dinosaurs which you can deselect if you don't want them.

I'm not sure that dinosaurs will be helpers .... they will most likely be sources of meat, skin, etc.

I’m working on the mod for servers after.

С Rising World вы можете отменить выбор и удалить медведей, тигров, свиней и т. Д. Перед началом игры.Мой план состоит в том, чтобы убрать всех ванильных животных с моим модом и заменить динозаврами, которых можно отменить, если они вам не нужны.Я не уверен, что динозавры будут помощниками .... они, скорее всего, будут источниками мяса, кожи и т. Д.Я работаю над модом для серверов после.
