First off I'm gonna say love the mod, bookmarking to follow, waiting for an easier to install version. Now, on to the nitpickery and suggestions. Sorry, but I gotta do it because my OCD compels me to.

Here's a picture I found with the brachiosaurs and pterosaurs
That picture is slightly inaccurate. Brachs couldn't stand on their hind legs like that nor did they eat from the tops of trees. This also brings me to the reason I wanted to comment in the first place. The current models for the brachs you have are inaccurate. The heads were not held high above the body but far out to the front, sort of like in the pic. The head could be raised above the body some, but the necks and tails were basically balances for each other, both being more or less parallel to the ground. While you're at it the rexes should be more parallel as well and maybe the heads a bit bigger. They look as if they are going to fall backwards.

Hey maybe you could have a stegosaurus which is friendly. But when you hit it, it could whack you with its tail or something .
Also when you kill it, it drops the plates that are on its back.
Anyway that was my idea and im really looking forward to this mod, im not really a mod person but this just made me want to get into modding. keep up the good work :smile.gif:
I've also seen a couple of suggestions for stegosauruses to drop their plates. I need to bust this misconception. The plates on their backs were not for protection like popularly thought (that's the tails spikes, people). The plates on the back were actually filled with blood vessels and were used to cool off the animal, just like the ears of elephants today.
As for the idea of tar, I don't like the concept that EXDragonith compiled in his thread. The tar should be dangerous, yes, but for a thinking, rationalizing human escape should not be impossible. The tar pits were only successful because of the, for lack of better words, stupidity of the animals that became trapped in them. So, make movements slow, have constant sinking, just plain old deadly. But escape should be there if possible.
I don't know how your spears work, so pardon me if this is how they do, but I think it'd be easiest, being a thrown and one time weapon, if they stack so each use decreases the amount like for the bonemeal and growing trees.
As for a final suggestion, make a small prey creature for the player to kill and harvest food from, much like the pigs of the "real" world. An idea for such an animal would be the protoceratops. About the size of a sheep (1.5-2 m long, I'd assume less than or equal to 1m in height) and an herbivore to boot. Perfect for slaughtering.
What I last heard was all Sauropods had upright necks, even the ones like Diplodocus. I will have to look into this.
Also, I know the Stegosaurs's plates were full of blood and quite brittle, I know that, I hope I don't sound angry, it's just this is kind of my realm. It's just that, they would be a lot more defensive on a human than a Stegosaur.
But, your right. It is like Triceratops frill. There should be an Ankylosaurus/Euoplocephalus that drops armor plates though. (Ankylosaurus is my favorite herbivore dino)
I am sorry for my inaccuracy

I agree with Karretch, we need some kind of food animal so we aren't stuck in the Jurassic with 1 heart and 50 spiders and a TRex at our door. Whether it's just pigs, some sort of mammal, or a little dinosaur, we need some source of meat.
Maybe Dryosaurus?
Also, I want to say about the spiders, I think if you add the Carboniferous biome, you should have spiders spawn there anyway, because there were giant spiders during that time.
Can you plz use fossil blocks like in the other topic becausr the other topic is just ideas not any mod completeion because i want to make a visitor center with a tyrannosaurus skeleton. and plz use the mammoth so i can make a prehistoric arctic base. and time anomalys so i can make prehistoric park without present day pigs. and Ps: when you use a minecart flux capitator does the cart come with you? and this mod is more epic than chuck norris!

Maybe you could have giant peaceful long necked dinosaurs that you can walk on. They don't attack you on any difficulty, but if they step on you by accident, then you will die instantly. Maybe if you manage to get on one, then you can build a small house on it. Also, when you damage them enough, like down to 64 Hearts, they will start whipping you with their tails and try to stomp on you.
I like that guys idea
But anyway I looked through of few pages of the topic and I'm sorta confused, like how do you get back to the regular world from the Jurassic one? and also, if you get a dinosaur egg can you bring it back to the regular world to hatch your own baby dinasaur? Last, does the mod work with mo' creatures?
skins - We have already incorperated with dragonith and are planning on using his skins, but as I hope you all know, It's not just as simple as changing the picture. We must go into every dinosaurs modeling classes and change the read coordinates for each body part until it fits dragonith's skin. Anyone who wants to help with it, I can teach them and they can config all of our dino's to dragonith's skins, but as far as what I am personally working on, guess and check with texture coordinates is not high on my list. I want to add more features to the mod that require my coding knowledge to complete. So I am basically saying we are looking for someone who want to learn a little about modding and also has real determination to skin the dinosaurs. If you are interested, please PM me. :smile.gif:
Portals - I purposely don't have portals, thats no fun. Make a high tower with a minecart track spiraling down inside then ride down it in a flux cart. Once you get to the Jurassic, build another tower where you spawned. This way, every time you ride with a flux minecart in these towers, you will end up in the other tower, similar to a portal system.
PS: someone please post a picture of a cool minecart tower they made as an example.
Accuracy - while I do feel this is important, there are highr things on the list ie. volcano, vines, better biomes, eggs, water dino etc.
Please post all of your pictures of cool stuff in the jurassic world

How about we make a new creature, That is rare in the Jurassic, But also spawns only in deep dark caves of overworld. The creatures name; The DEATH WORM!
It can break blocks like Mo'creatures ogre, But is slow and slithers, and it can kill a t-rex in one hit! it only spawns on Hard difficulty, If killed it drops (if added) time anonamalys, it can't be killed with anything exept dinosaur spears thrown at its mouuth. it is 20 blocks long and 5 blocks wide and 5 blocks tall, it should have the sound of a spider, But louder. so? what do you think?

hey this looks nice im about to try it out sorry if you already have this but you should make randomly or just fixed volcano locations that have lava coming out i think that would put a nice touch to it

It seems way too overpowered, and unrealistic. Sorry, but I don't like it.
Is this compatible with Modloader? I remember someone saying it wasn't compatible yet, and I want to keep all of my mods.
You know what, I'm just gonna back up my saves and test it.

If missing a deadline makes you a bad person, then Notch must be Satan himself.
Love the sky colors.
Love the dinosaurs.
Time to make a portal so I can go here to get all my wood from here.
