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.
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.
how about something for the water? megladon I think it is
Noted.....
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.
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
I'm thinking from the first couple of lines it was a memory issue...... have you restarted your computer and tried it again?
If that did not fix it go to the following link where the developer talks about this same error.

Though I notice you have 12 gig of memory so I am thinking you may just need to reboot the pc to free up some memory.
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.
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.
it is working this time
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......
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.
Are you starting a new game or loading an existing one?
When I start a new game it loads up with no problem.
Also try opening the zip file and make sure it is not corrupted.
excellent! is it available yet? The texture pack is interesting but what I really am after is the ability to build a Jurassic park on my multi player server. Where players can hunt the dinos. Your idea of restricting the tools can be solved in the permissions files I believe but there will be those of us that will want to use some of the modern tools also. Also in minotorious's server tools there is a ban items function that you might want to take advantage of.
The Environment Texture files can be downloaded from post 1 on page 1.
Instructions are included in the opening post on how to install.
The hard part of this mod is creating the dinosaurs and I am already progressing with their models.
The Environment texture files for the mod are now available for download.
See the opening post on page 1
After testing the mod with these texture files I have to say the chances of finding fruit trees are that much harder. No longer will you be able to go to a fruit tree after seeing bright red apples or bright yellow lemons on the tree. Now you will need to find the tree by looking for a tree that looks like a fruit tree and going right up to it.
Now you will need to forage for the fruit and there is now more reason to gather the seeds and grow the fruit trees at your home base.
Vegetables on the ground will be your most likely source of food early game..... but the vegetables have been re-textured as well so you will need to look hard to find them.
Before uploading the texture files I fixed the texture for the rock mountains as the texture was not perfectly seamless.
A note of warning..... the areas with yellow flowers have been replaced. This means you may accidentally go through an area where wild boar are lurking. Keep your eyes open and good luck!
I would think so. and cool that it will be that easy to switch.
To load my textures you would go add my zip file ThePrehistoricAge.zip to a folder called Texturepacks
Then in the file config.properties change the line
custom_texturepack=
to
custom_texturepack=ThePrehistoricAge.zip
When you want to go back to Vanilla you would have the line back as
custom_texturepack=
None of the Vanilla files are overridden by my mod.
I hope you are planning on a way to easily switch between your texture pack and the vanilla pack. It would be nice to be able to play on all servers. I am assuming that this will be multiplayer capable.
To use the Vanilla Texture pack you would remove my texturepack name from the file config.properties.
Its a 30 second change and nice and easy.
Concentrating on getting the dinosaur models complete.....then will look at multiplayer.
When fighting dinosaurs sometimes it is better having more than one player.
Don't go through this area too quickly......
There are potatoes and cherries ahead of you.
I will be doing some more testing today......
If all goes well the environment texture files for Prehistoric Rising World will be available for download as a texture pack later today or tomorrow.
In the vanilla game you can from a distance away easily see the bright colors from apple and lemon trees as well as the green of watermelons, carrots and so on.
With the Prehistoric mod these are all now harder to see from a distance and you will need to be close up if you want to see the food is there. This makes it harder to find food.......
Example..... in the picture below you are near an apple tree.
The colors of the environment has now been finalized..... the bright colors you will see in the mod will be some of the dinosaurs themselves.
Maybe create a new topic for that, since that would be basically a new, separate plugin (which isn't related to the CustomItemLoader)
New topic now created. Thanks.
Testing the new Textures.......
