Everything that's changed:

  • Stone/Deepslate Fossil and Deepslate Ice Shard Ore will get a new texture soon
  • Spinosaurus got a remodel
  • DNA Hybridizer now gives you "Failed DNA" if the combination was wrong (Indominus is [Velociraptor, Tyrannosaurus Rex, Metriacanthosaurus] from top to bottom)

Information:

  • Track rails are functional. Tour vehicles cannot interact with them yet because 3 additional rail variants are still being added.

  • The Jeep Wrangler is getting a remodel (model finished, textures still missing) but is already functional.

  • The Ford Explorer lights and monitors turn on when someone is inside the vehicle. Windshield wipers activate automatically when it is raining.

  • Saplings currently do not work because tree designs are still in progress.

  • Cycad and West Indian Lilac now have loot tables. All plants can be duplicated with bonemeal except Elephant Grass, which will grow (and spawn naturally in the future).

  • You can shift right-click on the Tables to hide under them.

~ New machine: Seed Rehydrator

  • Uses fossilized plant material
  • Requires crushed fossils

~ New machine: Disc Synthesizer

  • Requires any kind of disc and the soundtrack name
  • Currently available: Raptor Arrival
  • More soundtracks will be added later

~ New machine: Cultivators

  • Require nutrients and a syringe
  • Some Syringes now require cultivators instead of eggs

~ Skeleton Assembly Table

  • Takes 6 fossils of the same kind
  • Creates a skeleton (if available)
  • 2 New Fence Types: Medium and High
  • 2 New Fence Bases: Concrete Base and Low Fence (can be placed diagonally)
  • Fence add-ons: Fence Lamp, Spike Rail, Cable Insulator
  • Feeders currently do not fully work because not all dinosaurs/entities use the new Hunger System yet.

You can enable it via the gamerule [dinoHunger], but some dinosaurs may starve because they cannot eat yet. You can play the feeder animation by shift right-clicking it. After that it has a 15 second cooldown.

~ Most dinosaurs/entities now have:

  • New tail movement
  • Hunger system
  • Meat drops
  • The female Dodo now lays eggs.

  • Velociraptors jump on their prey every 15 seconds while hunting.

  • Microraptors can climb and glide to catch prey.

  • Most dinosaurs/entities now have babies that can be obtained through hatched eggs or by using spawn eggs on adults.

  • The Hunting System makes Dinosaurs like the Velociraptor also attack large carnivores like the Trex when there is another Velociraptor nearby.

  • GUIs with input fields work like this: Example: Test Test Test Each word starts with an uppercase letter followed by lowercase letters.

  • Nametag Variants: Tyrannosaurus Rex (Rexy); Velociraptor (The Big One)

Warning

  • This is a modified version based on the one from Smithy's video
  • Some areas contain less content, while others have been expanded
  • This beta is currently focused more on aesthetic use, as many survival features are still missing
  • This is an older version (approximately 3 months old)
  • This is the final version created using MCreator
