[Mod] Wilhelmines Living Floatlands [livingfloatlands]
This mod for Mobs Redo adds various prehistoric animals to the Floatlands, a Zone only available in V7 Map Generator. To enter the Floatlands you have to build a tower or stairs with the height of at least 1280 nodes(The Beginning of the Floatlands Zone)
These Mobs are hard to beat, so be sure you and your folks are well equipped, if entering the Floatlands.
Available animals:
* Ankylosaurus
* Carnotaurus
* Cave Bear
* Deinotherium
* Entelodon
* Gastornis
* Gigantopithecus
* Lycaenops
* Mammooth
* Nigersaurus
* Oviraptor
* Parasaurolophus
* Rhamphorhynchus
* Smilodon
* Stegosaurus
* Triceratops
* Tyrannosaurus
* Velociraptor
* Wild Horse
* Woolly Rhino

Re: [Mod] Wilhelmines Living Floatlands [livingfloatlands]
I am not satisfied with the movement of the large animals like T-Rex, Parasaurolophus and Nigersaurus, they always stuck on slopes and trees. I tried to give them more step height, but this results that they get the ability to walk on top of the trees and I don't want that. Enhancing jump height does not better the situation.
Perhaps it is best to degrade them to dwarf versions of the large animals to make it possible to move better for them. What do you think, should they be shrunken?

Re: [Mod] Wilhelmines Living Floatlands [livingfloatlands]
I personally think larger ones are nice.
And tbh, they likely should only exist on plains and flat areas anyway, as that is how the animals are, (though I don't know how easy spawning those under certain conditions would be).
Its up to you in the end, but I'd like to see the large ones.

Re: [Mod] Wilhelmines Living Floatlands [livingfloatlands]
I vote for larger ones.
Re: [Mod] Wilhelmines Living Floatlands [livingfloatlands]
New version with Collision Box fixes is out now, this should prevent large animals from climbing trees. Better movement, lesser chance to stuck for all animals. It was required to make Collision Boxes lower and narrower, now you have to hit at the legs and feet of the large animals, if you want to fight them.

Re: [Mod] Wilhelmines Living Floatlands [livingfloatlands]
Do you plan on expanding on the animals? If you do, consider adding the Paraceratherium (biggest mammal known) and the Argentavis (biggest bird known)

Re: [Mod] Wilhelmines Living Floatlands [livingfloatlands]
These animals would be great additions!
One day I will continue this mod and I will add them both.
First I wanted to add Haasts Eagle for the first release, but I decided better to add Rhamphorhynchus.
Argentavis is much cooler then Haarsts Eagle I think, I will add this giant vulture.
I know Paraceratherium under the name Indrigotherium, and I think it is a great addition for savannas.
I don't know how exactly the future of this mod will look like, perhaps it is a good idea to discuss here and get some ideas.
In Animalworld I added some furniture and trophies made from animals, but in Living Floatlands something more special would be nice. A Tyrannsaurus trophy as an example is very big and not so decorative.
I the Palaeolithic the inhabitants of the northern hemisphere build houses out of mammooth teeth and whale bones, so bone building blocks could be an addition. Thin walls made out of skin (made from mobs:leather) known from Palaeolithic era would be another idea.
Another idea comes from the fact that the floatlands don't have ancient flora, so ancient seeds to cultivate could be an idea.
Another idea I once expressed was the floatlands boss. He is something existing in a very known comedy film from the 70s and you have to get tyrannosaurus teeth, a diamond and a chest to summon him, but what should he drop? What's so special about his loot?
Just add some ideas ;)

Re: [Mod] Wilhelmines Living Floatlands [livingfloatlands]
I like the idea of ancient flora as well, ancient plants is something underappreciated by media depiction of prehistory, I also like the bone block idea perhaps you could expand on that and vary the bones to create a fossil museum?
This mod give me a Lost World kind of vibe, so one goal may be to categorize each species in some kind of tome? Like, you scan the mob in some way and if you have a mod specific book it unlock one entry about the mob, I dunno sounds educative and a bit in line with the collecting theme.
About the boss, I think you should set for a tone first, petz has a focus on the cute side of animals, better fauna focus more on realistic behavior, draconis lean a lot on game of thrones type of dragons. What does your mod intend to be? I think it may be better to have a clear picture before deciding what the boss will be.

Why scan? That is too easy! They can drop it after death :D Or: scanning and this does not only provide a tome with info, but the tome is part of a recipe for pictures of lets say tyrannosaurus, little tyrannosaurus sculpture and tyrannosaurus cookies.
I know what he is, but I wont tell, the people should discover for themselves when he is integrated one day ;) The question is more: What special item should a boss drop?j0j0n4th4n wrote: ↑Sat Apr 17, 2021 16:56I think it may be better to have a clear picture before deciding what the boss will be.
Hmm perhaps a flying mount the reach the floatlands easily?

Re: [Mod] Wilhelmines Living Floatlands [livingfloatlands]
New Update is out, with different versions for the Floatlands and Midworld.
With update V 1.2 this mod has now its own prehistoric biomes (Coldsteppe, Giantforest, Cold Giantforest, Paleodesert, Paleojungle)
There is a GROUND version available for the mapgens which do not include floatlands (Caparthian, Valleys). This edition spawns biomes and dinosaurs in the Midworld.
The V7 edition is for those, who only want to have dinosaurs and biomes in the floatlands without adding biomes and dinosaurs to the Midworld.

Re: [Mod] Wilhelmines Living Floatlands [livingfloatlands]
Does it support mods who change mapgen like Ethereal, 30biomes or mapgen_rivers? Or they don't work together?

Re: [Mod] Wilhelmines Living Floatlands [livingfloatlands]
I have tested it for you. Yes, it does work with Ethereal, 30 Biomes and Mapgen Rivers.j0j0n4th4n wrote: ↑Sat Nov 19, 2022 15:50Does it support mods who change mapgen like Ethereal, 30biomes or mapgen_rivers? Or they don't work together?
