Honestly, a big part of letting this mod go was the fact that ARK's codebase was constantly being changed so there was no stable ground for an overhaul like this to work with. I've also been spending a lot of time in Unreal Engine 5 making custom movement mechanics & AI systems. While the movement & AI stuff is for a personal project, the general Unreal knowledge coming from that should play quite nicely with ASA's dev kit.

THOSE İT NEED TO BE FİRST PLACE İN MOD LİST

Is there any way this mod could be updated for 2023? I would do literally anything to play this mod

What will it take for a Mavrodon standalone? Do you have a Patreon page? Also if you could make the Mavrodon just a little smaller so it makes more sense that it cannot be ridden?

You're like, the first person who's ever noted its existence lol

I hope you are able to make the Mavrodon a stand-alone mod as I loved that cat so much :(

If you cant update it take it off the workshop

Pls need update.

What do you mean it cant be updated?

Also scorpions,they are not neutralised by bug repellent,they are really agressive even tho Ive taken it :/

Hey,can I get more info on taming titanoboa ? I thought by "normal carnivore" titanoboa should be abled to be unconscious but it still doesn't have torpor.

@jelly could you update the mod and dont touch the TLC updated Animals só se would have the new models and your mod. Until you do the v2??

Extinction Will Come in more than 3 month they dont even have a trailer for ir. And is always 2 - 3 month after the trailer

@Kale8 - As far as remapping goes, unfortunately the one other person who I've talked to who was interested in something similar reported that .ini settings failed to reliably map creatures back to their vanilla counterpart.

You could manually spawn them in, using a command like "summon raptor_character_bp_c" (quotes removed) in a fly-by of the map you're playing in so that you're essentially feigning natural spawn patterns.

That said, I'm not sure how wild creatures would behave on server or save-game restart, whether they'd actually stay vanilla or map back to my variants.

Hey,since TLC 1 and 2 are over,is there a way to spawn that creatures instead of mod ones ? I would really like new spino and argy+maybe raptor from TLC instead of your ones (nothing personal,just like general idea of tlc :P )

@realityx7 - Waiting for Extinction DLC, I'm expecting it to come with a locust swarm of bugs in the same vein as the pre/post-release period for Aberration.

Is Jelly still modding? Anyone know?

@Jelly the dev kit was recently updated right? I know everynightRIOT showcased the Play as Dino mod recently and it had the updated TLC models. Can't wait for a new version of this mod :D

@realityx7 - Yeah, Once the dev kit has that I'll update his model & all that to work right with the TLC content.

@Jelly Do you still plan to update the better trikes mod? I'd be sad to have to remove it :(

Yeah, they were all good changes I feel (except maybe buffs to Argent imo..) and they'll be fun to play with, but the scope of the changes wasn't quite as extensive as I'd hoped. The visual updates are very welcome, though.
Doesn't hold a candle to the changes Z2H had.. I had to figure out how to build new types of pens I'd never thought to use before just to house certain new livestock dinos you'd made tameable/useful.

@Diana Prince - A big part of why I was going to setup a successor mod anyway, there is unfortunately no way of saving of custom creatures or even just the replaced vanilla ones.

With mods like Better Dinos having that functionality of letting remapped creatures swap back to vanilla counterparts, that is a big reason why I was looking at replacing this mod with a successor anyway.

@CoyodiSoul - Yeah, I've been keeping an eye on what all is happening for the TLC stages. My take?

What we got, and what's coming for next patch all looks very promising. Unfortunate that it only really happened for 11 creatures out of a DOTA sized roster of pets before moving onto something else (granted, bug-fixing.) Par the course for ARK.

Looks like the last TLC dino was announced.. all the rest seem to be fair game!

@Jelly is there a way to save dinos that i like?

@m0shr00m - There *shouldn't* be anything special you have to do to remove Zero to Hero from your server

So, I was going to uninstall this mod and replace it with a few others until Z2H 2.0 is ready, but after removing it and rebooting the server, it's in a constant loading state, and won't show up in my server list. Is there a special trick to removing this mod?

Fair enough. I'll just be patient wait and see what comes of the TLC passes and then Z2H 2. :)

Ok maybe not more for stage 2 but it's not a slouch either. Either way, I'm leaning towards a much lighter, less sweeping package. Something that can be let alone (Zero to Hero needed constant babysitting) and without destructively high consequences if something breaks.

@Lycanshifter - Yeah. It's gonna be a while.

@CoyodiSoul - It's hard to say. Phase 2 of TLC is looking like it's going to be where the meat of the TLC pass will be, or at least it's packing on a lot more than Stage 1 did.

Also will most of the changes that existed in this mod carry over to the new mod/version?

In the upcoming ZtH 2/TLC+, would there still be a way to stop the mod's version of a dino from spawning? I'm hoping to layer this mod with Better Dinos on a new server I'm setting up and spawn only the dinos I want from each mod, or in some cases, the vanilla version. (Cherry picking :P)

sorry if i misread but does that mean the abberation creatures will still be a fair while off?

That said, see more information in the linked thread for more info on what's happening to Zero to Hero (TL;DR this mod is receiving its final updates over the course of the TLC pass and a successor mod will be setup that's cleaner and inherently keeps up with the game's updates) http://gtm.steamproxy.vip/workshop/filedetails/discussion/1149484227/1699416432429337060/

@BloxerTheBlob - Every elder & ancient should have information in the New Creatures & Items thread.

@Gamerguy 2187 - Honey is what they like for taming, will add that to the Titanomyrma Breeder description.

@Ulta - Yeah, griffins were included in that. The only exception to the rule of breedability were the bees since they don't have real pressure to perform in combat, and elders/ancients, due to the highly elevated base level range.

@CrimsonFlame3s - It's a known bug that I'm getting together a solution for (once my dev kit cooperates with me, having an issue with reinstalling)

Titanomyrma Breeder - What is the ideal food to use for taming these? Its not listed.

I noticed in the specific dino changes thing that it said it allows unbreedable dinos to breed now. Does that mean Griffins can breed with this mod then? Thanks in advance =)

The only birds walking in the air are the ones that I tamed after getting this mod, the vanilla ones are fine.

I am so happy this mod exists. It fits perfectly on my server so thanks for your hard work <3

so what are you doing with the new tlc

How you tame ancients?

the issue with the birds walking in the air is an issue with the vanilla game.

also will abberation creatures make the next update? any eta on that?

Also is there a list of the game ini settings we can change?

The birds that I have tamed after getting this mid can't fly, or more specifically they do the walk anymation while "flying in the air". Any reason why this could happen?

Just a idea tho

Should make it that the "elder" dinos are the old model ones o,o... it would be cool to see a single old direwolf with a pack of new ones.but maybe not a elder Ape.... to goofy XD

Np

Hopefully you can update with the new tcl update

@FreezingAxe, I will try that! It may be a good temporary solution. Thank you! :)
