Well I'm glad You found it interesting... Hgmm.. WOOOOOOT REAL SKIN!!! *O*
I think the Ankylosaurus should have its texture and model edited to have its armor and body shape actually resemble what an actual Ankylosaurus' armor looks like.
Also, all the theropods shouldn't have exposed teeth when their mouth is closed, except debatably Spinosaurus.
And will the dinosaurs younger stages eventually be more different than their adult stages, primarily proportionally? Like with Tyrannosaurus having a narrow snout and Pachycephalosaurus going through all sorts of changes with its skull.
But overall, I'm very impressed with the progress made. All the textures look pretty realistic, not too bright or anything, and realism is for the most part pretty great. I do question the size of some of the larger animals however, and I think the Spinosaurus may need a slightly different head (I'm not sure on the last two here). Keep it up
The anky and theropod changes are something to keep in mind going forward, I agree. I doubt they'll be changed for the next update though because as we keep saying, there'll be no new content.
The proportion changes I think would be too hard to pull off. The way growth currently works in the mod is that it slowly but consistently grows, not that it jumps between selected sizes as it gets bigger. The slow growth system would make it hard to change proportions because the different body shapes of babies/adults would require different models (and textures) and somehow they would have to smoothly transition between the two in game. If that makes sense.
Thanks for the love!

Sorry, I just started following this page (again), what do mean about no new content? Like the next update will be bug fixes?
Well, I do have some other things I've found inaccurate that you may or may not want to fix at some point;
-Stegosaurus probably didn't have sexually dimorphic plates like that one paper said a while back, both plates should look very similar or the same in shape.
-Because we have impressions from a Triceratops' back, it's known for certain they didn't not have quills, instead having "bumps" which were at first thought to hold quills. I know it's a config option (and another option is already scaly theropods, so accuracy doesn't matter), but I thought I'd say it.
I do realize now that the growing proportions would be harder than I realized, because the model would have to change.
And more feather config options would be great for the future (Dilophosaurus, Allosaurus, Ceratosaurus, Dryosaurus, and maybe even Spinosaurus).

Feathered Allosaurus, Ceratosaurus, and Dryosaurus make no sense, especially since we have skin impressions from the former two and the latter's relatives.

Yeah, no, I'm going to fight you on that, especially with the wording that it makes "no sense".
Allosaurus: The skin impressions are 30cm around and are from the shoulder, they could have likely still had quills along the neck, arms, or tail, or feather fuzz over most of their bodies.
Ceratosaurus: There's no skin impressions of Ceratosaurus, only from it's somewhat close relative Carnotaurus, but the two aren't even in the same family. Like Allosaurus, it could have been covered in quills or feather fuzz.
Dryosaurus: Easily the most defendable case; Kulindadromeus had most of its body covered in feathers and is a basal Ornithician, Dryosaurus has no reason to not be covered similarly. Thecleosaurus may have even had quills, but this is debated.
You should note I never said "fully covered in pennaceous feathers". No, just feathers in general instead of completely naked, as they possibly were feathered (and most likely were in the case of Dryosaurus).

We mean no new content as in, the next update is going to be a simple port to 1.10.2. New version and bug fixes, yes, but no new mobs or such.
As for the feathers, we aren't going to add feathers for mobs that there isn't evidence for. That doesn't mean they never had feathers, but we aren't going to take that sort of creative license unless we have some sort of convincing evidence (it's kind of like dilo venom spitting; you can claim there isn't evidence against and call it creative license, but that doesn't make it realistic, you know?). I'll bring up dryosaurus with the team, but at least from my personal knowledge, I don't know of any evidence of feathers in your other suggestions.

Yeah, no carnosaur has good evidence of being feathered yet, I was just defending the plausibility. I understand it would be decently speculative, so I see why you wouldn't want to do it.
Dryosaurus on the other hand has pretty good evidence, as I've already stated, so I do hope you guys decide to give it a feathering covering at some point.
I think there should be Dodo and Terror Bird feather toggles. I don't think that it's realistic or believable for birds to have feathers. While you're at it, a chicken feather toggle would be nice too.

I was trying to fit Heimskr's speech into this place, but it wouldn't fit.
Can you show me the papper that confirms it (not trying to be rude, I just want to be sure). If there isn't one I would highly suggest waiting before making a claim about feathers and dinosaurs or this will turn in to something similar to the Spinosaurs situation we had a while back where people watch a documentary and take it for 100% pure facts which it really isn't. That lead to people coming from far and wide making claims on how the anatomy of a long extinct animal worked when they didn't have any knowledge, experience or even the slightest understanding on how something so complex like an animal functions.
Kulindadromeus is my evidence that Dryosaurus and other relatives probably had feathered, but here's the paper anyway (I think you need to register to read it, but you can find the same information elsewhere by looking up Kulindadromeus).

Totally happy with that! It's absurd how excited I am for this to be updated. You guys are awesome.
I'm going to talk to PCAwesome somewhere else to stop this feather arguement from being spammed here, so I'll move onto something new:
DNA Textures.
Now, I hope I won't be lynched when I say I don't like most of the animal DNA textures (the actual symbol for them, not the orange circle), primarily the vanilla farm animals and Cenozoic species. Some just looked weird, or had weird colors, and other were just overall inconsistent with each other. So, I decided to make my own versions of them:
*I also included Dilophosaurus because it appears to still have its frill (or its just really brainy) **The chicken and horse aren't different, but I kept them to compare them with the others. The terror bird and quagga are just one color now, but no other difference.
I fixed some of the other theropods too, but I wanted to show these ones first. Tell me what you guys think, which version is better?

A Question, does every dino, have a albino skin ?? /// white skin? if so, what is the chance of hatching one?
There was a white mammoth i think. but i haven't played with this mod on a while so i dont know if that texture is still on the newest update.

Except Dryosaurus was an advanced ornithopod and not a primitive neornithischian (like Kulinadromeus was).
The only true ornithopod skin impressions we have show that they are scaly.
Also, Ceratosaurus back scutes have been found. Please explain how that allows for a feathery mane on a Ceratosaurus.
