Raptor Race (Outdated, Check Description for 1.3 Version)

Description
This version is outdated! Visit this link to get the up to date version of the raptor race mod

https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2566540065

--

Adds a race of genetically engineered, humanoid velociraptors.

Race Details: Fast, vicious and good at surviving in warm environments.

Watch out for their claws!

A big thank you to the guys at the Humanoid Alien Races Discord who all helped me out with making this mod. You guys are awesome! Check out their Discord if you're interested in making a race yourself.

I'm not an artist, I'm a writer, so the raptors themselves probably don't look that great, but I hope the mod is still enjoyable! I've also added around 35 new backstories specifically for the raptors, so hopefully they're a little entertaining too. Let me know if there's any bugs you encounter, or if I've messed up somewhere else and I'll get on it.

I'd also highly, HIGHLY recommend the Jurassic Rim mod. That mod helped inspire me to create this one, plus it adds dozens of dinosaurs to the game. Dinosauria is another dinosaur mod I recommend.

I've been thinking of making more race mods and was wanting to update this and the tyrannosaur mod. Expect an update sometime soon(ish maybe)!

update?

Thanks for checking it out! They haven't got a ton of toe-to-toe power against regular raptors I wouldn't think but I haven't tested that out. Against a human though they can take them down unarmed, or should do, with their claws and jaws.

Health-wise they're mostly human but a fair bit faster when running. Obsidian29 helped me out by pointing me to a line of code that improves their hunting stealth so expect an update in that area at some point!

Looks legit; i'll give it a shot in my next play-through: I've been looking for a superior reptilian race that doesn't have massive drawbacks. How do they fair one on one against a jurassic raptor?
Kilhn, Lizardmen, and Kobolds(variations) were all disappointing though I'd say Kilhn only disappoint visually. None of them have the impressive physical abilities one would look for in a beast-race. Any unique history or health properties?

Absolutely, I'll send you a friend request!

Yeah, I know what you mean. I like things fitting with the style. Don't worry about it, I'm sure whatever you can make will be better than me!

Me too! I like having more tribal groups for that primal feel for a playthrough.

All right, I'll give it a go. Would you mind if I added you to discuss what you want me to go for, or would you prefer I ask any questions I have here?

Don't worry, I'll keep to Rimworld's style. It's very important to me that the mods I use don't stand out and scream " HEY I'M A MOD AND DON'T FIT WITH VANILLA ". :P And I won't be offended if you don't want to use what I churn out, I'd just like to offer the option.

I look forward to the T-rex and any other races you create! Rimworld seems lacking to me in that area, and I'd love to have a rich diversity of races to populate my colonies with.

Thanks for checking this out and giving it a try! Hopefully it's a fun addition to your playthrough.

The graphics are ok, I was really just wanting to make a velociraptor race, but they're not great. If you'd like to make new graphics go right ahead! For me personally, I like to keep with the Rimworld style of it being minimalist so that it helps it fit in with other mods and doesn't look too out of place with the other stuff, but that being said I'm obviously not an artist so I can't really say too much in that area!

I'm also going to make a Trex race at some point and then maybe I'll try an avian race in the future. I'd like to have a bunch of races that the player can have either in the background or to play as, especially for those abandoned jungle planets.

Awesome, watch out for their claws and bite!

Gonna try this as soon as I can run RimWorld again. Right up my alley.

Also, if I may ask, how close are the graphics to what you envision for the race? I'd happily try my hand at a few sketches if you'd like new graphics, and if you like them I can probably convert them to in-game sprites as well.

Either way, there's totally going to be a humanoid raptor colony on the next planet I crashland on. :D

Thank you, that's very kind :olut:
