I really like all the ideas. I think the tar is a great idea. At first i thought the bone blocks were pointless, but when I read on i saw thatyou could put them together, and i love that idea. Actually, my friends and I were talking about being able to go tho the past and I'm happy to see others are thinking about it too!
I like the idea of fossils
but i dont like dinosaurs in Minecraft
with woolly mammoths you can find there frozen body's in tundra and make them a house but they are dead and can not be reanimated
I am very sorry if I'm saying something that's already been posted but ten pages is a bit too much too swallow for me.
Maybe for the portal to the Jurassirealm you could craft a block for the portal like this.
Same recipe as nether. but instead of obsidian you could make it a time anomaly block(for lack of better block name)
It should be crafted like this.
[] [] [] [] [] =time fragment
The block would also be used for decoration. This would make it that you could also use it as a decorative block.
It basically relies on how much you can offer with the mod. If you don't offer all that much, then it should be a biome. If you offer a whole new world of exploration, then I agree, there should be a portal to Jumanji. I can personally back this portal thing if the place you go to is different enough to justify it. You would need new ores, new trees, new mobs, new farming, maybe cavemen.
But of course. Technically, it's not much right now, but I'm planning on adding more content.

That said, I don't like the time travel thing. They should be portals, sure, but the fact that you call it a time anomaly is just stinking of plagiarism from Primeval, and is unoriginal at best. I personally would like the idea of stumbling upon a cave with a growth of Jurassic plantlife, and the fragmented portal would be embedded in the wall, which would be prehistoric rock. I think the portals should show Jurassic imagery and give off prehistoric sounds. Explaining it away as "time travel" blocks creates more nagging loose ends than it solves,(paradoxes, butterfly effect) whereas if you scrapped it, and just said it was a mysterious portal, it makes it a little more adventure-like rather than ripped from a crappy fan fiction. That's my two cents on this. The time fragment things just seems to be there for the sake of being there.
The fragments are more of a symbol than an actual representation, like the JP-like logo I have in the OP. So they are portals in a way. And I've actually been thinking about doing that dinosaur effect with it. I'll add that to the OP in a bit...

To offer new suggestions instead of this post being an annoying bitchfest, I think there should be new mobs that are not dinosaurs, but aren't overworld either. Also, I think that gigantic plantlife and Jumanji exclusive geology needs to be fleshed out, and by extension, there definitely needs to be new ores. What you can offer is up to you, and I can start with a suggestion for there to be an orange coloured one. Maybe offer the same ores in the Jurassic but at different distributions? Maybe gold is abundant there and coal is rare and requires a substitute? Mix up the gameplay!
Gotcha. I'll get some new blocks up soon and some non-dinos as well.

Forgive me if this has been asked before, but are the time anomalies based of primeval?
Sorta.

Got bored and tried making a texture pack in a Jurassic style.

looks awesome by the way fossils are not fragile ( unless you use explosives ) but you could invent a new minecraft tool like a chisel and mallet. oh and what about a special meat that allows you to tame and ride the raptors. ( I'm a big fan of raptors as you can tell )
we are in control now sssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

Eh, that part's more based on fiction than accuracy.

You don't really need a whole schematic for this. Just place the block (or two) and jump in.

I agree entirely. Cut out all the unnecessary stuff, juts make craftable dinosaurs or I guarantee this idea will stale on the bench. The quicker you can get it out the better.
Ever heard of the expression that says you work your way from the simple to the more complex. Make fossils and craftable dinosaurs and release then see where you go from there. Even ONE craftable dinosaur would be nice. Heck, it doesn't even need to be craftable, make a mob T-Rex or raptor and see where you can go from there. Don't bite off more than you can chew.
All of these items/blocks aren't useless. They all are connected together in a away like a chain. The time blocks grant access to the dino dimmension, also providing usage for a wall clock. Just making dinosaurs without anything to be placed in the world to add additional activity would be redundant. I wouldn't add anything unless it had a purpose to serve.

Possibly might be the way to do it.

Would it be possible, do you reckon, to use the world seed of the main map to create a duplicate world of the main world for the Jurassic world? So it has the same landscape but without any of your buildings or anything on it?
There's a WIP mod by hardcorebadger in the OP. You can check it out if you're interested. :wink.gif:
The time anomaly is the best part and maybe it would be best to have the Jurassic era separate like the Nether, although I love the idea of dinos coming through it.
Honestly, if the size permits any dinosaur should be able to cross it with the exception of a Creeperzilla just to keep those things in check.
Hey I dont know if anyone has suggested this but here it is:
What if Raptor eggs occur naturally and if you take one, a pack of Raptors will go after you if they own that egg ( and maybe if there is only a lone Raptor it can call for other Raptors for help catching the egg )
and maybe if you give it back they will go away
When i got jurassicraft, i had already been to the nether, and i had a portal. so when i go to the jurassic, what i get is a cross between the nether and the jurassic (quite funny, by the way). So my questions are:
1.if i destroy my nether gateway, will my stuff that i left in the nether (and cant bring back) still be there, or does the nether generate a whole new world?
2. Will this even work AT ALL?
3. if i delete all of the nether files out of the "minecraft.jar", if i reset it will the nether be the same?
And this question is off topic: How in the heck do i download Hoverboat? (i have followed all of the instructions, have a PC, and am getting angry!!!!!!)

Or it's just a big coincidence they almost loo exactly the same, no?
Just so I could stand in the bushes saying Clever Girl over and over until I actually get attacked.
BRING IT ON! ANIMAL CROSSING STYLE!
MINECRAFT MUST HAVE GLASS STAIRCASES!
The nether isn't stored in the jar it's in the save.
Wonder what the hell you're deleting.
