Fossils and Archeology Revival
Thank you all for the continued patience! We are proud to have made the jump to 1.12.2 after 2.5 years of what basically amounts to rewriting everything from scratch. We are very thankful for everyone that continued to have hope in us even when in times everything seemed hopeless. As for the people who gave up, we hope that we'll see you again when you rediscover our mod! Next update should take much less time... hopefully haha!
Fossils and Archeology first started off in Minecraft beta 1.7.2 under the original author, Flammarilva and Team July. Since going open source at the end of 2012, the Revival project started under a new team and has been going since.
The mod offers a variety of dinosaurs that are brought back to life through discovering bones, extracting DNA, creating Embryos, and making eggs. Along with dinosaurs there are other prehistoric creatures such as mammoths, smilodons, terror birds, dodos, and more. There are currently 50 different prehistoric creatures added by the mod!
Alongside with the new mobs you are able to make, there is an archaeological aspect for the people who like to explore more or collect beautiful new blocks. Fossils and Archeology Revival also now has built-in support for Thaumcraft, Just Enough Items, CraftTweaker and Tinker's Construct.

Too all of those who keep asking for a 1.16.5/newer build of this mod: THEY ARE WORKING AS HARD AS THEY CAN TO BRING THIS TO THE NEWEST VERSION! STOP ASKING OVER AND OVER AGAIN. LESS THAN 10 PEOPLE CONSISTENTLY WORK ON THIS MOD AND FORGE HAS ALMOST ENTIRELY CHANGE SINCE 1.12.2. STOP ASKING! THEY ARE GETTING TO IT!
In reply to Willatendo:
(I didn't say anything about the 1.16.5 thing I was waiting for it because I knew it would come at one point) Cool! and thanks for the news!
I can't execute the Forge 12.2.2 Installer on my desktop running windows 10. I have the Java version of Minecraft, but my computer's os is windows 10. I wish I could download now, but I guess I'll have to wait...
In reply to cursedalien:
I have Windows 10 and Minecraft Java, and everything works fine. you sure you are not doing something wrong?
In reply to Flop_with_drip:
I'm not good with computers, idk. When I try to run the installer, I just get a script error, so I gave up. I'm okay with waiting for the 1.16.5 update.
In reply to cursedalien:
Have you tried downloading a new installer? make sure you take the 'recommended' version and not 'latest'. I don't know too much about this stuff either so I can't really help you with the script errors since I don't know what could cause that myself.
plis add to 1.16.5
In reply to miguelhatakeh:
They are planning to port this mod to 1.16.5
In reply to justarandomusernam:
Can they add it too to 1.16.4 version? Please
In reply to kitka_ruda:
Why? There's really no difference between them other than 1.16.5 has some bugfixes.
In reply to Skitsfossil16:
Most of mods that I use are for 1.16.4 not for 1.16.5 so that's why.
In reply to kitka_ruda:
If you get forge for 1.16.5 the mods for 1.16.4 should still work with it
are the dinosaurs supposed to spawn naturally because I cant seem to find any
In reply to ninjakai100:
no, find some fossils and then process them, then use the thingy to make em into an egg and then hatch the egg or find a surrogate mother if its a mammal
What did they update on january?
In reply to justarandomusernam:
They updated the AI. They also fixed some bugs.
In reply to Skitsfossil16:

Could you please update it to 1.16.5?
In reply to dentanus2001:
