List of all of the mating animations in the dev kit.

[Darktrooper117]

I know a lot of people suspected that the mating animations had been modded in. They weren't. Go to the dev kit and in the search bar type "mating"

Right now the list is:
Sarcos (Animations suggest water mating)
Raptors
Pteras
Dodos
Rexes
Spinos
Scorpions
Trikes
Brontos
Dilos
Pachys
Parasaurs

So the devs are in fact considering turning ARK into probably the most *realistic wildlife simulators out there in addition to all of the survival aspects. Good for them! I hope to see a continuation of these ambitious projects as development continues. Next we will probably see some species display parental behaviors with their young or maybe some combat finishers.

*(You know, considering that time seems to have been put into a blender on this island.)

Dilos, Pachys, and Paras were in the latest dev kit update. Confirmed.

Congratulations, you found the Dev's version of trolling... Like the other guy who made a thread that last I saw was near 2K replies

Then the devs must have about $10K to blow on a joke, because animation is expensive and time consuming, and they keep making more of these with every update.

Consider that animation department does not always have a project to work on. If they finish animation while AI is still being programmed or skinning is being worked on they can just take the already existing rig for the Dino's in game and make these kinds of animations for fun while they wait for the next project to come down the pipeline.

Perhaps. Hopefully the Digest sheds some light on the matter today.

Actually, I suspect they will be implemented in a later pass. Drake did say that v219 is just the beginning and that they will continue to add layers to the system. It would be a shame to let content go to waste.

Just for future reference he is the newest one, I deleted the old one.
