Egg Nests

Spoiler!
While exploring, you may stumble upon the nests of these prehistoric giants. You may be able to snatch a prized egg for yourself, however, be warned: lingering around too long may prove dangerous, their mother will be close, so don’t tarry too long.

Domestication

 

Spoiler!

To hatch eggs, you simply place it down on the ground, they will hatch after sometimes. Important that the area is lit and also big enough for the baby dino to hatch into, it it is too small they will not hatch until there is more space.

Similarly growing will take time and require enough space for them grow into their adult form.

Feeding adults, if they are carnivores, you simply drop the meat on the floor. They require 30 portions to breed. When the females have eaten enough portion they will lay new eggs. If you pick up these egg will reset the generation numbers to 0, so be careful. 

They are friendlier(still might attack on occasion) after 4 generation, you can lead them by the rope after 4 geneations, peaceful after 10 geneations

 

Riding

Spoiler!
You craft a saddle and bridle specific to their family, this would allow you ride them. You also add an storage to it's back.

Lures

Spoiler!
You can craft a big and a small lure, range 100 and 30 respectively

 

Hitching Station

Spoiler!

If have dinosaur mount that you want to stay put, you can craft a hitching station,

Simply place it down near your mount and it will stay close to it,

If the dinosaur is not domesticated or still too wild, it may knock down the hitching station

Hunting guide(Combat overhaul required and recommended)

Spoiler!

Green weak spot hit does 5x dmg

Head hit does 3x dmg

Body hit does 1x dmg

Limbs hit does 0.75x dmg

Eyes are the only weak spot you can hit with any tier weapon.

To hit the brain, lungs and heart you will need a weapon with a tier 7 or higher, eg. Musket, Windlass crossbow

 

If you find it hard to hit the weak spots (skill issue) because they are chasing you, you may find the dinosaur lure a useful tool to distract them while you retreat to reload or find better terrain.

@Qu3ntin ? Its just for the specific hit boxes and bonus damage that the guide shows... So no

This is peak, I hope you can update this if you can.

Mod is broken in current version but somebody made patch for it.Here:https://mods.vintagestory.at/show/mod/33626

ProphetOfMercy, Nov 17th 2025 at 4:23 AM

Does anyone still use this mod in the current version? Curious if it still works before trying to install it on my multiplayer server.

Ruina, Nov 9th 2025 at 6:50 PM

Please update.

Lamatu, Sep 29th 2025 at 12:27 AM (modified Sep 29th 2025 at 12:29 AM)

Most of dinosaurs (also other dinosaur mods) cant spawn and cant be spawned with creative.Some baby dinosaurs can be spawn but adult ones cant.Antlers is also bugged.We love your work and i hope you gonna fix mod.

EthelVril, Sep 28th 2025 at 10:40 AM

Does your mods work in 1.21?

anyone know why the child toy is translucent it wasnt when i first made it but now it is

 

Midnight1304, Sep 13th 2025 at 2:17 PM

Good Morning, I tested all you're mods and found the same error than Chirallity in all of them exept : Long Neck, Ocean Tyrant, Domed Head and Scythe Claws.

I found out too that none of them spawn/appear naturally, sometimes the game crash when trying to make them spawn.

Making mods is not easy and what you did until now is impressif and I really love your mods, hope to see them updated soon and to hear from you.

have a nice day ^^

Chiralitty, Sep 3rd 2025 at 7:23 AM (modified Sep 3rd 2025 at 7:35 AM)

Maybe it's some sort of Creative hiccup, but I can't seem to spawn adults of any sort. I can spawn eggs and juveniles, but when enough time passes for them to age to adults, they just vanish. This goes for the terrible hands group as well, but the ocean tyrants seem to work as intended.

Taz9090, Aug 22nd 2025 at 11:42 AM (modified Aug 22nd 2025 at 11:44 AM)

Does your mods add a trumpet noise every 10-60seconds tied to effects sounds? Please if so, how can I remove this??

laughinggas , Aug 13th 2025 at 3:37 PM

robochild

It already possible to see the gen number. The other features, requires custom coding, which I don't know how to do yet.

robochild, Aug 10th 2025 at 6:16 PM (modified Aug 11th 2025 at 9:18 PM)

Would it be possible to add a buildable nest for all dinosaur eggs that shows how long itll take eggs to hatch and what gen theyre on? Or maybe it could just boost the incubation time, sort of like a hen box? idk i think letting domesticated dinosaurs nest in buildable nests could be useful

laughinggas , Aug 7th 2025 at 11:57 AM

DiALfriedo

Yeah it happens sometimes, reloading the world fixes this

DiALfriedo, Aug 7th 2025 at 10:02 AM (modified Aug 7th 2025 at 10:04 AM)

The mod is amazing! But I found a small error in the model: when the dinosaur(Nanuqsaurus) lies down, some parts of the body fly up

DanteGoldenrod, Jul 17th 2025 at 8:47 PM

No Yutyrannus?

laughinggas , Jul 8th 2025 at 7:14 PM

Anotzibartschad

This might be easier chase down the issue on discord. Go to the mod thread Legacy of the Phanerozoic: Series on the official vintage story discord.

Anotzibartschad, Jul 6th 2025 at 10:54 PM

my gut feeling tells me it might actually be an interaction with itemclumps

Anotzibartschad, Jul 6th 2025 at 10:54 PM

laughinggas

Hey man, thanks for the portions tip. The Trex disappearing bug is real, I can now confirm that. Even with proper lighting, as soon as I fed them, next time I check up on the dinosaurs they're gone. They seem to consistently disappear after being fed, it might be related to the dropping meat on the floor mechanic.

GrandNoot, Jul 6th 2025 at 10:48 PM

laughinggas does this work with the butchering mod by chance?

 

laughinggas , Jul 5th 2025 at 1:26 PM

Anotzibartschad

Just max out their portions for the horned crowned, I wrote how much they eat max on their page. 

Anotzibartschad, Jul 5th 2025 at 8:10 AM

@laughinggas I'm breeding crowned dinos and albertosaurus

laughinggas , Jul 4th 2025 at 11:33 AM

Anotzibartschad

Which species are you breeding, tyrannosaurs don't need more than 30 at most, it's probably because they still need more portions, it's a lot more herbivores.

Anotzibartschad, Jul 4th 2025 at 1:45 AM

hey laughinggas, so the enclosure thing got fixed, but unfortunately the dinosaurs just won't breed. They've been at "ready to mate" forever now, 35 portions eaten on one of my dinosaurs. Is there something I'm missing

laughinggas , Jul 2nd 2025 at 6:56 PM

Chiappo

I'm also on the official VS discord, there's thread for my mod there if you want to contact me. You have full permision to use the concept, it's not even my idea, it's based of TenthArchitect(stone mod author) and he's also cool with anyone using it.

Chiappo, Jul 2nd 2025 at 4:56 PM

laughinggas

Hey there. i didn't know where i should contact you so im trying from here..

i saw your mods and noticed you could breed eggs.. with a nest from your mods

i hope it's okay i used the same style concept for the mod i made (TheCrittersPack)

 

Sorry if i posted this the wrong place...  

I listed you on credits list for good reason on mod - if thats fine?

Thats all. :) and Btw great concept overall

Anotzibartschad, Jul 1st 2025 at 4:02 AM

It must be the lighting then. Once I saw the female inexplicably outside the enclosure, but I have no lights with them. I should try again, this time with proper lighting, and then report back to see if the issue persists.

laughinggas , Jul 1st 2025 at 3:49 AM

Anotzibartschad

Are they escaping the enclosure, and you can see them outsite of their enclosure or are they disappearing like poof not a trace? 

Is your enclosure fully lit, if it's too dark they despawn.

Anotzibartschad, Jul 1st 2025 at 3:31 AM

Hey, the Albertosaurus from my enclosure keep mysteriously dissappearing, particularly the females when they're ready to mate. They just somehow escape the enclosure once they reach that threshold, I have no idea what's going on honestly

laughinggas , Jun 28th 2025 at 1:19 PM

Warlock161

you'll have to hit up the author with the conflicting mod  then because it works normally without it

Warlock161, Jun 27th 2025 at 6:44 AM

So i'm getting a problem, seams harvesting them sometimes yields blank results, i suspect the levelup mod is conflicting to some degree, yet when i leave the game and come back, it loads in the meat and hides etc. Any idea about this problem laughinggas ? It could be something else granted, now i suspect that due to harvesting 15 puffballs per node, then killing a monosaurids (The water tyrants i think) and it would be blank but not become a pile o bones. Had this problem with other dinos btw. I still love what dinos add to the world, since i added this set due to the bandits set not being updated properly kek.

laughinggas , Jun 12th 2025 at 2:32 AM

Gleipnyr

You breed them through generation they become less aggresive

The eggs just help but you can do it with just one male and female that you capture.

You can manually edit it in the entity .json  file at, the values are at end of the file or just install configlib mod and use that interface

Gleipnyr, Jun 11th 2025 at 11:41 AM

How do you tame all of them exactly ? 

Including herbivores ? Do I have to find eggs ?

 

Can't edit their spawn rate either, i wish i could

 

laughinggas

 

treeman0013, Jun 7th 2025 at 1:52 PM

I sent you a DM, regarding collaboration on your project of dinos. Would you be interested in a collaborator?

laughinggas , Jun 6th 2025 at 1:00 AM

treeman0013

I am on the VS discord, you ca look up this mod series in the mods and you'll find me, it's the same name as this account. 

treeman0013, Jun 5th 2025 at 7:35 PM

Excuse me, are you on the VS discord? If so, what is your username?

laughinggas , May 28th 2025 at 8:04 PM

Thank for the notification spam, I'll look into eventually

B0YAR, May 28th 2025 at 3:57 PM

laughinggas

Please add compatibility with Butchering mod. We love hunt on this creatures and cook them! Yammy!

laughinggas , May 16th 2025 at 3:42 PM

that's something that could be considered in the future, but it maybe have to be done from the author of butcher end if I had to guess.

Shadow_Prince, May 16th 2025 at 2:37 PM

(this is gonna mostly be as a joke)
maybe support for the butchery mod, atleast for smaller dinos and most babies, would be neat
changes the way meat/hides and such is harvested to be more inline with real life, can still use the knife on the corpse but yeilds like 1/10 of the yeild from butchering it on a table

laughinggas , May 8th 2025 at 12:07 PM

PhobosFogg

Incubating nest if left alone for long enough become matured and will hatch babies, once it's finish hatching, it becomes an empty nest.

I'm glad to hear people are enjoying it!

PhobosFogg, May 8th 2025 at 10:35 AM

laughinggas Quick update from our server - a player found an incubating nest in the wild and it dropped eggs, so whatever the situation was before, it does now seem to be working as intended.  Can I ask a question though? If "incubating" nests exist to allow players to get eggs, what is the purpose of "mature" and "empty" nests?  As I understand it, nests don't have anything to do with dinosaurs spawning in the wild, and aren't tended by adults, so I'm a little confused!  That aside, you might like to know that the player I added the mod for is having a blast rearing a pen of t-rexes.  We have a group outing this weekend, and I think the plan is to turn up riding a dinosaur!

Kew, May 7th 2025 at 5:47 PM

laughinggas Yay, thank you so much! Hopefully that also applies to the remaining eggs I have stored away.

laughinggas , May 7th 2025 at 1:46 AM

Kew

nature found a way, they should hatch both male and females now,

a for naturally spawning nest, it should be the exact same entity as the creative one, but I cranked up the spawn rate just to test it the naturally spawn just to be sure, and it drops eggs like normal, though I will note that there a chance for it to be zero, it's not always guaranteed.
So it should just be working normally and being unlucky, though let know if still dropping no eggs in the future.

 

PhobosFogg, May 6th 2025 at 4:23 PM

laughinggas We've done a lot of sciencing on our server with this mod.  It looks like creative-spawned incubating nests drop eggs for any player harvesting them, but "natural" ones don't according to my players (see previous comments from Dante and Mildred) - they just drop sticks. I haven't been able to verify this because despite searching for an hour flying around, I couldn't find any nests at all under 1.3.2!  Also, any player picking up an egg after placing it throws an exception:

5.5.2025 20:23:09 [Server Error] Exception: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
at Vintagestory.API.Common.Block.IsReplacableBy(Block block) in VintagestoryApi\Common\Collectible\Block\Block.cs:line 1871

at Vintagestory.Server.ServerMain.Process() in VintagestoryLib\Server\ServerMain.cs:line 914

This gets thrown every time a player picks up a player-placed egg.

And we are also having the same issue that Kew mentions below - we just hatched 9 eggs from creative-spawned nests (can't get eggs naturally), and they were all female under 1.3.4.  I had to creative-spawn a male for that player.

I'm not sure how useful this will be, but here's our mod list (from the startup log): degrees1499, aculinaryartillery, ancientarmory, betterarrows, bloomeryfulldrops, chiseltools, hqzlights, cervinae, hangingoillamps, tyrannosauridae, millwright, pipeleaf, primitivesurvival, prospecttogether, resmeltableslight, simplepaperlanternrecipe, SmokingChimneys, game, vsimgui, wwaymarkers, apeflowerpots, egocaribautomapmarkers, awearablelight, betterruins, biggercellars, cavetweaks, composter, configlib, expandedfoods, expandedskins, farseer, foodshelves, hangingbaskets, justanarrowheadmold, knifemold, noticeboard, recipeselector, rivers, rpvoicechat, scythemold, vinconomy, creative, survival, webcartographer, xlib, hanginghasketspatch, xinvtweaks, xskills

The only one I could see causing issues is the giant deer mod (cervinae) because it's very similar in scope, although Primitive Survival also has its own entities.

Kew, May 6th 2025 at 3:10 PM

I've hatched maybe 30 Qianzhousaurus eggs now, but somehow they've all been female.

Some of them have matured, but I can't really get close enough to check if they've changed sex.

laughinggas , May 4th 2025 at 5:20 PM

PhobosFogg

I suppose, it could be some mod conflict, give me the list of mods you have

PhobosFogg, May 4th 2025 at 3:51 PM

laughinggas Hi there, I'm the owner of the server Mildred and Dante are playing on.  If there's anything you need from me in terms of information or "sciencing", please do let me know.  I confirm I haven't changed any settings, just installed the mod and left it alone. 

laughinggas , May 3rd 2025 at 10:39 PM

If it still happens it might be on the server ends, could weird mod interactions or the admin manually lowering/remove the drops, but I can confirm that it should work on servers normally

Mildred, May 3rd 2025 at 10:24 PM

laughinggas I tried it on a solo, and it worked. I got multiple eggs from each nest.. But then I must have been like *really* unlucky that the nest on the server I am playing on didn't drop anything but sticks. :/ 

laughinggas , May 3rd 2025 at 7:39 PM

Mildred

can you go into creative world, grab the incubating alioramus nest item and kill it see if it drop eggs there too, trying see if it's something strange with your version or not, because I can't recreate the issue

Mildred, May 3rd 2025 at 7:21 PM

laughinggas I harvested very decidedly an incubating Alioramus nest. I hit it with a weapon until the harvest tooltip showed up, then harvested it with a knife. I only got sticks out of it. 

laughinggas , May 3rd 2025 at 5:35 PM

You might have killed a matured one or was really unlucky, I just tested it in creative, I harvested the eggs no issue. Let me know if happens to other nest if you  find them also dropping no eggs.

Mispelled_Dante, May 3rd 2025 at 5:01 PM

Thanks for the reply.
It was the Alioramus.

laughinggas , May 3rd 2025 at 2:01 PM

They don't require male/female dino to form, they spawn in independently

Once they are empty, they stay empty, you can destroy them

They should drop some eggs from incubating nest, that might be a bug, let me know, which species you harvested from

Mispelled_Dante, May 3rd 2025 at 10:45 AM

Loving the mod, got a few questions regarding the nests though.
Do they require a male/female dino to form, or are they just random?

Once a nest is empty, can it respawn an egg, or should it be killed?

And I saw you mentioned a few days ago to kill an incubating nest and harvest for an egg. But I did that with an incubating nest and got no egg. Should be an incubating nest, or a mature nest?
Thanks

laughinggas , May 1st 2025 at 6:09 AM

activeavi

unfortunately it won't be possible until the VS dev implement elk tamming which is on their roadmap, so for now best you can do for now is turn off ridding all together until someone domesticate a dino. 

activeavi, May 1st 2025 at 1:19 AM

is there anyway to disable the ability to mount an undomesticated dino? the players on my server instantly discovered that having someone jump on the back of a trex makes it stand still, and so there's really no danger now

laughinggas , Apr 30th 2025 at 8:57 PM

JustaKobold

I there's a nest cap, so yes removing them would allow more to spawn over time

JustaKobold, Apr 30th 2025 at 4:27 PM

100 health seems like a lot for a nest when the player starts with 15... But ill give it a try. Secondary question if i break the numerous nests around me does that prompt more to spawn?

laughinggas , Apr 28th 2025 at 1:13 AM

Yes, simply kill it and harvest it

Joho, Apr 28th 2025 at 1:04 AM

Just hoping to verify: If I find a nest with incubating eggs, I just need to break it down and collect the eggs to start the domestication process? I've found a Qianzhousaurus nest, and considered cracking it open.

laughinggas , Apr 27th 2025 at 6:02 PM

I'll see what I can do

RaptorMother, Apr 27th 2025 at 9:20 AM

TBH I do feel like the nests are WAY too tough. 100hp is a lot

laughinggas , Apr 26th 2025 at 11:43 PM

JustaKobold

You gave up too quickly, they have 100 health, just keep smacking it until you get the harvest prompt

JustaKobold, Apr 26th 2025 at 6:08 PM

@laughinggas

I can neither destroy them nor harvest them. i tried getting eggs from nest showing eggs and havent ever gotten anything and also tried destroying both full and empty nests and they seem indestructable. Tried every different tool i could and every different way i could.

laughinggas , Apr 26th 2025 at 2:57 AM

FootnoteMiner

I've added a new weak spots and lures in the latest version, aswell as a guide section for fighting with them

 

 

laughinggas , Apr 26th 2025 at 12:36 AM

You can add or remove mid play through no problem

Tankwv, Apr 25th 2025 at 10:53 PM

can i add it to a server thats already started and they will spawn or would i need to add it at the start

 

laughinggas , Apr 25th 2025 at 10:16 PM

JustaKobold

are your harvesting it after destroying them?

JustaKobold, Apr 25th 2025 at 10:07 PM

I dont seem to be able to destroy the nests or ever get any eggs from them. Is there something specific needed to destroy them? The nests say incubating and show eggs in them but never give me eggs

 

JoSquared, Apr 25th 2025 at 2:10 AM

You are a legend my friend

laughinggas , Apr 24th 2025 at 8:34 PM

FootnoteMiner

Thank you for the suggestions. I will look into add more weak spots, I think with recent combat overhaul changes to projectiles piercing multiple blocks, I'll see if I can implement some internal organs as weak spots. I'll also look into some form of lure/distraction. I would like to give the t-rex some ability to destroy blocks, but not something I know how to do just yet. 

 

FootnoteMiner, Apr 24th 2025 at 8:12 PM

laughinggas I'll try the combat out a bit more with that in mind. My main concern is it seems like it's really easy to get temporarily softlocked out of an area unless you commit to cheesing, especially in the early game. It's like the "there's a bear on my base" problem, but with even less player ability to do anything about it. Some other ideas: add more weak spots, like the heart to aim for. Maybe some way to distract the dinosaur's attention like using a flaming arrow like the flare guns from Jurassic Park. Throwing it meat could work similarly. Maybe a fairly expensive mid-game item that keeps them going into an area? 

 

Another thing I wonder if you've considered though seems hard to balance is what if the larger ones could destroy certain blocks? Like a T-rex could destroy dirt when hitting it with its head to prevent cheesing it with a cheap nerd pole. 

laughinggas , Apr 24th 2025 at 11:05 AM

FootnoteMiner

You can now config their spawn rate and drops amounts 

laughinggas , Apr 24th 2025 at 4:35 AM

The balance is intended, if you can land an eye shot, it is a 25x damage, which one shot with a gun and two shot with the bow. That being said I'll look into adding a config for the drops and or the spawn rate.

FootnoteMiner, Apr 24th 2025 at 2:53 AM

The mobs are well-made, though their balance seems off. Unless you nerd pole like JoSquared mentioned, you can't really counter them. I'm using a gun mod and it took four shots to a Gorgo's head (base damage being 63 per shot) to kill it. Challenging is an understatement if you try to not cheese them.

JoSquared, Apr 24th 2025 at 2:21 AM

I can't find a config to change spawn rates because, at least on our world, the dinos from each mod are spawning everywhere. Killing them becomes quite simple with a dirt tower and some arrows and food is no longer an issue at all. Is that something that could be considered for the future, some way for server owners to adjust just how often dinosaurs spawn?  

laughinggas , Apr 17th 2025 at 6:39 AM

I higly recommend updating to the latest version. 

Tankwv, Apr 16th 2025 at 11:08 PM

would it be ok to add the newest versions of this to 1.20.4

 

laughinggas , Apr 12th 2025 at 6:20 PM

Fair enough, I can change their drop to bushmeat.

RobertS42, Apr 12th 2025 at 4:14 PM

laughingg

Well that's not really how that works with the bushmeat, if anything the more meat something eats the more bushmeatier it should get. Basically if something is non-predatory omnivore or a herbivore then that should be red meat, whilst if something eats only meat it should be bushmeat, at least in the way the game usually works.
For example bears are built very thicc and strong, but they drop bushmeat because they're filling the predator niche rather than the prey niche.

laughinggas , Apr 11th 2025 at 9:05 PM

It's safe to remove mid game

neuwirman, Apr 11th 2025 at 8:27 PM

Heya, are your mods safe to remove mid-game?
I loaded them on a server and people aren't too smitten with them, so I'm thinking about removing them. 
Thanks in advance. 

laughinggas , Apr 10th 2025 at 1:20 AM

spino do drop bushmeat, but I reckon that the tyrnnosaurids eat so much meat and given that they built like a truck, their meat would be closer to that horses or buffalo. 

RobertS42, Apr 9th 2025 at 8:14 PM

Shouldn't these and the spinosaurids drop bushmeat rather than redmeat?

Since in the game bushmeat is supposed to represent predator and "other" meat that isn't as nutritious and tougher because of how the food chain works. 

Critish, Apr 8th 2025 at 2:28 PM

Splendid :))))) The predators become dinner.

laughinggas , Apr 7th 2025 at 6:38 PM

Awesome. 
Eggs you just cook normally in a cooking pot, either as a main meal or garnish for something else.

Critish, Apr 7th 2025 at 6:25 PM

Update: the trex has moved on, but some others have taken his place. A herd of trikes had also moved into my valley but are all dead now on accout of some spinos. On the one hand I have to still deal with predators but on the other I have a good supply of meat. Drifters are light work compared to these monsters. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

On an unrelated note, is there a way to prepare the dino eggs into meals?? :))))))

laughinggas , Apr 6th 2025 at 11:29 PM

Latest version should have better Combat Overhaul hitboxes. Hopefully rather than being a damage sponge, you can now pull off skill shots/hitting weakspots to take down these dinos more effectively

laughinggas , Apr 6th 2025 at 4:36 PM

Trust me, it being too quite is intented, when you start farming them you'll be glad it wasn't any louder. As for noise that is still too loud, let me know noise which is too loud.

VaelophisNyx, Apr 6th 2025 at 3:21 AM

Audio balancing in all of this suite of mods is a bit...off

most noises are far too loud, while others are nearly silent

 

Also dinosaurs tend to get stuck on stuff like single branchy leaf blocks a lot

BottenRasterd, Apr 5th 2025 at 1:38 PM

@laughinggas Awesome! Thank you so much. I appreciate all the time, effort, and talent you've put into these mods.

laughinggas , Apr 5th 2025 at 11:24 AM

I've made the harvesting easier in the latest version

BottenRasterd, Apr 4th 2025 at 11:39 PM

I am having a bit of an issue and I fully admit it could very likely be user error.  Where exactly are we supposed to aim to harvest one of these lovlies after we've killed them?  I keep getting "Attach " or "Sit" options but no pop up box with the goodies.  I've experienced these with all of the LoP mods.  I've actually been able to harvest from a couple (triceratops, I believe) but at this point I'm thinking it's a case of "even a blind squirrel finds a nut occasionally".

 

Is there any way in the code to turn off the saddle/bridle/mount options once the creature is dead?  This might help solve the problem.

 

Thanks!  I'm loving the mods!!!  They add a very real sense of danger and terror that even bears fail to give me anymore.  =D

laughinggas , Apr 4th 2025 at 2:03 PM

Aw yeah, I love these stories, they fill with glee. Thank you for sharing.

Critish, Apr 4th 2025 at 10:46 AM

I started a new modded playthrough which includes this mod. After a few days of roaming I stumbled upon an abandoned village in a forest. I made the church my home base as it is big and in decent shape. Every now and again I would run across a dead boar, goose or rabbit. Maybe it was a wolf or a bear? Yea... the noises I heard didnt come from no bear. Something was circling around my base but I could not see what so I decided to make a ladder to the roof and peer out. And there it was, a green Tyranosaurid, on my roof, just chilling. I am now locked inside, there is a thunderstorm outside and food is running low. 

laughinggas , Apr 1st 2025 at 3:28 PM

I believe they only eat when they are ready to breed, it can be a week to a few months.

PrigozhinFloyd, Apr 1st 2025 at 2:49 PM

How long is the wait until we can get them breeding? I dropped a ton of meat on the floor and they never ate as juveniles, then waited until adults to drop meat again, still havent ate. Wondering if it has to do with the dinos still having the "Several days until ready to breed" so pls lmk if thats the case. The type i nabbed is Qianzhouthraurus.

laughinggas , Mar 27th 2025 at 3:06 AM

El_Tormo 

I just wrote a section on how to do it

El_Tormo, Mar 26th 2025 at 10:23 PM

I just started using them, I got some eggs, how do I hatch them and how can I feed them?

I love the idea and the fact that I can mount them.

MikeyJB, Mar 26th 2025 at 10:03 PM

Worked your awesome dude

DS_Ren, Mar 26th 2025 at 4:14 PM

Download does indeed work now, for myself at least, cheers!

laughinggas , Mar 26th 2025 at 4:09 PM

The speed hopefully is all fixed now, also try to download it now, see if you can

laughinggas , Mar 26th 2025 at 3:59 PM

Actually I found another type for one their speed that's why they are zipping around

laughinggas , Mar 26th 2025 at 2:40 PM

That's really strange, cause I can download it fine, had friend tested it too, I can't say it's anything on my end

MikeyJB

You can tweak their speed in the tyrannosauridae.json, just look up movespeedByType

Grayson, Mar 26th 2025 at 2:40 PM

Download works for me. 

MikeyJB, Mar 26th 2025 at 2:07 PM

Can't install newest version, same issue. And some of the dino's zip around the map soooo fast its crazy, is there a way to slow them down?

gndrneutralnoun, Mar 26th 2025 at 1:53 PM

Having the same issue as Bobosaw.

laughinggas , Mar 26th 2025 at 1:16 PM

Might want to check your end, because it works for me

Bobosaw, Mar 26th 2025 at 12:30 PM
JunidO, Mar 24th 2025 at 4:29 PM

Could we ride them, too?

MagnaFM, Mar 24th 2025 at 1:25 AM

Thank you for fixing the qianzho speed, those things were going so fast they would overshoot me if I moved.

laughinggas , Mar 24th 2025 at 1:03 AM

Oh that's a very funny typo, latest version I've fixed it

Faeldray, Mar 23rd 2025 at 9:23 AM

I think there's a typo for the speed of the adult qianzhousaurus. On line 195 of tyrannosauridae.json, it says:

"*-qianzhousaurus-adult-*": 0.8,

But the other adults have speeds ranging from 0.065 to 0.09.

We noticed this in-game when we came across an adult qianzhousaurus traveling at the speed of light. It actually died from fall damage in a non-hilly area because it was going so fast lol

laughinggas , Mar 22nd 2025 at 12:57 PM

Updating should be safe, unless you are going from version 1.1.~ to 1.2.~, that would remove all the previous dino if you're raising some. 

To clarify update mod IF you got the 1.2.1 to the newer version 1.2.2, not the game version.

Katt19, Mar 22nd 2025 at 9:17 AM

can I safely use version 1.2.0? since you said to use the later version because of an error (I can't update to 1.20.5 yet)

laughinggas , Mar 20th 2025 at 9:52 PM

Update, if you downloaded version 1.2.1, get the newer version, I made a mistake that broke their AI, this new one fixes that

RaptorMother, Mar 20th 2025 at 4:55 PM

Fair enough, and wonderful update! :D

Btw I'm working on a small little fun patch to allow their eggs to output expanded food liquid egg... something like 1L of liquid egg per tyranno egg? It's slow progress because I'm not really good at coding but it's a fun project

laughinggas , Mar 20th 2025 at 4:45 PM

Latest version you can mount them

laughinggas , Mar 20th 2025 at 3:44 PM

Might just be the game being wonky the their dead hitbox is 3x3 around the body. I'll have a look at butchery support, see what I can do. 

As for the redmeat, I have good reason to believe that given their size, the amount of hemogloblin they would require would be enormous and thus probably meant that their meat was red. Maybe the smaller and agile dinos might have had white meat.

RaptorMother, Mar 20th 2025 at 8:24 AM

I have a different hitbox problem: tyrannos carcasses. Sometimes I can harvest them no problem, others, it's impossible to find the right spot to carve from. This seems really inconsistent and random. Where's the right spot to carve for meat? (alternatively or additively, butchery support: is it possible? Also funny: would it make sense if their meat was poultry instead of redmeat? :)

laughinggas , Mar 19th 2025 at 2:08 AM

You chuck meat on the ground

KremlinJanitor, Mar 18th 2025 at 11:30 PM

Im trying to feed the juveniles but can seem to put the raw meat into a trough, what's the intended way to feed them?

laughinggas , Mar 16th 2025 at 1:17 PM

The head, neck and tail, is outside of the hitbox from the side, I'll bump up the height of the hitbox to cover the body mostly next release but I can't make it any wider without cause some issue for the AI, for some reason after a certain size, they can't target other entities properly. That being said, aim for center mass if you want to hit it consistently. 

SturgeonFish, Mar 16th 2025 at 7:29 AM

laughinggas I'm not sure its combat overhaul because this doesn't happen with the ceratopsids. I can shoot them with the same weapons and hit them in the tail/body/head without issue.

Annastasija, Mar 16th 2025 at 7:04 AM

If you ever add make a Carnotaurus I can tame and or ride, I will absolutely die from excitment.

laughinggas , Mar 16th 2025 at 6:31 AM

Ikaahi

I will be doing other dino families, but no spoiling what they are yet, they will come in due time

SturgeonFish

I've not tested them with combat overhaul, I will have to make a patch for it to work properly

SturgeonFish, Mar 16th 2025 at 4:54 AM

Love the mod, but their hitboxes appear to be tiny. I can send arrows through them at the hip and it passes right through, though I am using combat overhaul. Anyone else having this problem?

Ikaahi, Mar 16th 2025 at 12:55 AM

Just saw the update, yes yes yes yes yes!!

Will you be doing other dino families? I cant wait to see some dromeosaurids

Bobosaw, Mar 15th 2025 at 3:05 PM

Now this is what I wanted. Hell yeah

laughinggas , Mar 15th 2025 at 2:05 PM

Ikaahi

Well the lastest version is closer to that show

Ikaahi, Mar 15th 2025 at 2:01 PM

Oh my god I am loving this, and I love that you include other tyrannosaurids too!! 

I see others have mentioned suggestions to the model, might I suggest watching Prehistoric Planet? The docuseries uses the latest science in their designs and may provide great reference to help!

ptrk, Mar 15th 2025 at 2:27 AM

I am so excited for the little big chickens you have no idea. Definitely using this in my next world when I do add all the extra animal mods. Unfortunately, I'm gonna have to set up my VS home server first otherwise my CPU will choke

Nyklone, Mar 13th 2025 at 7:32 PM

I really love the effort you take. It would be lovely to one day turn off normal animal spawns and simply live "earlier" in a world full of horrible mega lizards

 

laughinggas , Mar 12th 2025 at 10:53 AM

Thanks, I do plan to rework this model and retexure them, and yes feathered juvies

ptrk, Mar 12th 2025 at 2:05 AM

Along the lines of RobertS42's suggestion: the theropod dinos didn't drag their tail like sauropods did, so the T-Rex's pose should be more horizontal/see-saw-like. Here's a good reference on how they are now known to stand and walk. Also, their lower legs had a much shallower angle with their femurs when walking, as they could run crazy fast for its size; up to possibly 25mph (40km/h).

Also, you should consider adding feathers to the baby rexes because they had feathers until they were adolescents, and looked like the cutest big chickens imo.

Excited for the other mods, too! The tricerotops looks incredible.

EaNasir123, Mar 11th 2025 at 8:11 AM

Cant wait for more Dinos!

laughinggas , Mar 8th 2025 at 11:11 AM

No worries, I got it, latest version should have their arms facing inwards

RobertS42, Mar 7th 2025 at 9:46 PM

Kind of? The palms should be facing each other, because theropods were not able to pronate their wrists (palms facing downwards) without braking them.
Sorry if I sound condenscending 😅

laughinggas , Mar 6th 2025 at 10:56 PM

👉👈 Like this? 

RobertS42, Mar 6th 2025 at 8:40 PM

Not a complaint, more of a suggested change:
Maybe un-pronate the wrists so that they face inward?

laughinggas , Mar 6th 2025 at 2:15 PM

It's not cut off, I didn't write much there in that section

Dwem, Mar 6th 2025 at 7:05 AM

Egg nest description section is cut off.

laughinggas , Mar 6th 2025 at 4:45 AM

There's no decibel control unfortuntely, it's the same regardless of distants, I'll tone the roar down 5 or so decibel 

crumps, Mar 6th 2025 at 4:19 AM

Seems like their roar could use a bit of tweaking. I think its that there's no distance formula for the decibel of their movement and roaring. Cuz I'll be 100 blocks away and hear their roar like they're next to me. The steps are much quieter now tho!

crumps, Mar 6th 2025 at 4:15 AM

JaxsonBright oh yeah i def don't want it gone completely! I'll make a clip of it real quick and post it. At least on my end its completely overwhelming to the point i want to take off my headphones. Like yeah, it should be present but not overpowering.

JaxsonBright, Mar 6th 2025 at 3:54 AM

crumps I mean, Considering the Largest ever fround T-Rex (Sue) is estimated to have been 18,000 Pounds (9 Tons) and the Upper Estimated Weight range for the species being 33,000 Pounds (16.5 Tons) it's only Appropiate that they make a Bassy Boom when they move?

laughinggas , Mar 6th 2025 at 3:50 AM

crumps

I've tweaked sounds for them let me know if it's still too loud

crumps, Mar 6th 2025 at 3:00 AM

Love the concept of the mod, but could you turn down the bass-y boom to their step? I do think there should be something for being aware of their presence but its very thunderous and overwhelming and it seems no matter the distance you can still hear it. Was messing around with them in creative just now and spawned one and the walking noise was so loud.

laughinggas , Mar 6th 2025 at 12:14 AM

JaxsonBright

Thanks, friendship ended wth winrar, 7zip is my new best friend

Both, you can hatch them or make a dino omlettes

Ngl... while I do love how goofy the models look as is, they aren't exactly all that scary looking. I mean... their head is gigantic and their legs are TINY in comparison. It's like an overwhelmingly top-heavy bobblehead.

are the eggs just a food source, or can we raise the kids if we find a way to hatch them ourselves a la Feverstone Wilds' cockatrice?

Mostly correct
Their range has been theorized to be across western North America, from Canada to New Mexico and Texas

yesssss dinosaurs time! you'd think with all the temporal fuckery in VS there'd be at least some time-displaced fauna out and about, no? can't wait to see your skills in modeling and texturing improve as time goes on; for a first attemp, you've done an incredible job. would be awesome to someday see this expanded into a FotS style series. keep up the great work!

Please add support for the Biome mod. I think it would be in the Pacfic Nearctic and Atlantic Nearctic.
Thanks in advance!

Gasp! Look at all those Chompers! Now if only we could feed them tree stars.

The idea of something like Fauna of the Stone Age but dinosaurs is really neat to think about. This mod looks exceptionally high quality. Thanks for this :D
