Fossils Origins – Scales & Shields

Fossils Origins – Scales & Shields

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT PLEASE READ THE FINAL PARAGRAPH

hello! first up let me explain this site, this will be the main place I will be publishing updates and news about all of my projects, related to Minecraft or not, yes big surprise I work on other projects !


My main projects other than my mods are simulations and research into different algorithms.
trying to understand the functionality and advancement of such complex systems is a dream for me!
anyway, feel free to read some of the first articles I published here [there short like 2 minutes per article at most] and now lets get to the update and its features!

Features

The Scales & Shields update adds in a lot of new features including armour for most of the dinosaurs in game, but it will mostly be about the following:

  • Dinosaur armour and combat.
  • Dinosaur taming and companionship.
  • Config file.
  • Natural spawning Dinosaurs.
  • Advanced Ai.

Dinosaur armour and combat:

  • Armoured Dilophosaurus
  • Armoured Pteranodon
  • Armoured Spinosaurus
  • Armoured Stegosaurus
  • Armoured Therizinosaurus
  • Armoured Tyrannosauraus
  • Armoured Velociraptor
  • Armoured Carnotaurus
  • Armoured Mosasaurus
  • Armoured Pachycephalosaurus


Advanced Ai:

  • improved herding and movement.
  • improved hunting.
  • implemented hunger system.
  • implemented pet system


This update is going to be massive… and expensive… this one alone will cost me about… 120$ to make… god damn that’s a ton… anyway, this is going to change a lot about the mod and allow you to play in your own styles, whether you want an ark like adventure or a Jurassic Park experience you will be able to do both !

Now onto something more important , the future of the mod, I have attempted multiple times to build a team around the mod to allow for its continued existence and improvement, thing is, it isn’t working, I cant find a team dedicated enough to the mod in any way and as I said before I am spending a ton per update, like hundreds of dollars at this point, and it isn’t sustainable, I am trying to save money for my future and this method of development is not sustainable, so while I do love the mod and I am so grateful for the community that formed around the mod, I don’t know if this mod will go on to enter the newest versions as development costs are getting ridiculous and I cant afford to keep spending that much on a hobby since I make like 300$ a month…

please understand and try showing some support, the mod isn’t going dormant or getting cancelled rather I am thinking about the future of this mod and my own.
