MODS for Jurassic World Evolution

[DinoGuy18]

as a member of the JWE community, i belive that the amazing game that Jurasic World Evolution is, can be made that much greatr with Mod Suport, i know the the devs have strongly pushed away from allowing mods for this game in feer that mods would taint the over all quality and experience of the game, my arguement to that is yes there will be people that make bad and stupid mods, but there will also be people who take the time and effort to make some amazing mods that will stand out of the croud and rise to the top, for an example, Jurassic park Operation Gen, it is still being moded to this date by deticated fans that love Jurassic Park, i think if the devs allow people with so much tallent and freedom to make some amazing mods this game can be made so much greater. If you have any questions on my opinoin or want to add some of your own ideas please comment, Thank You For Reading

No, they have pushed away from mods because it's a lot harder to sell DLC when modders are giving it away for free. That being said, unless mod support comes through or they release a TON of new attractions, bigger maps, decorations, facilities and a complete overhaul to how the guests work I am sadly very done with this game after only a couple weeks of play. JPOG held my interest for YEARS after I first bought it.

Modding in JPOG wasn't a thing for years after release and it certainly wasn't a sanctioned addition. The community merely figured it out as is the current state of affairs in this game. Eventually the community will get to the same level as in JPOG, it'll just take time.

Don't hold out any hope for official modding tools, Universal are unlikely to sign off on it.

The files are open source and availble + the game uses the same engine as Planet Coaster. So anyone that can mod Planet Coaster can mod JW:E. There are plenty of people that have already modded the game to an extent.

It's not a matter of if they arrive, its a matter of when.

Plus there being the issue that Frontier doesn't mind modding as much as mods being spread around.

Indeed there is a third party modding community (and I've seen video evidence of some pretty amazing stuff the private modding community have done behind closed doors) but the only officially sanctioned tool is the Thememaker's Toolkit and that took 2 years to make it into the game. Even if Frontier/Universal decide that modding is the way forward expect a similar timeframe to pass before you see any official tools.

I would be a big fan of a terrain tool mod.
I would love to be able to make different terrains like coastal, swamp, jungle, steppes, desert and mountian and have the trees and foliage effect it as such.
For example, swamps/bogs would have algea clusters over the water when you use the small plant tool and mangroves ect when you use the big one.

I think being able to design the sandbox map (and others) in such a creative way would add a lot to play time and immersion.

Find it funny that this guy thinks based on his word certain mods should or shouldn't be made or included.

Got bad news for you bub, an't your choice. If people can figure out a concrete way to make and implement mods, they will. They aren't going to come flocking to you to seek your approval. Grow up the world doesn't resolve around your word.

But he has a point. Imagine people start modding every dino to have human boobs. Like the argonians of Skyrim. And then comes sex mods. Some mods really should never be made.

But of course for me I'd always go with mods that raise immersion or authenticity. Like adding the camouflage genes for the Carnotosaurus, nesting mods, gore mods, more animations mods, improved corpses, smarter guests AI and so on. If that's even possible of course.

If people make those sorts of mods who really cares I think. Thing is even if the devs released a official modding tool they'd do it anyways. I mean that's what happened with Skyrim. You can always just ignore those mods and look for the mods you do like. That's always a option you can choose.


In short I am going to quote a famous Scientist.

When I made that post it was meant to be more of a joke but now that I read it back it looked like it wasn't :3
But I do agree with your statement. If someone wants to add weird fetish mods it's not up to me to say anything. It's their game, not mine.

Deffently needs mods. more dinos. or cheat options. or a spawn mod so we can spawn millions of Indroraptors. Infinite cash? Really want mods now.

Your not gonna get mod support

[Vincent]

certain people probably love having the option of mods no matter what.

they are always just a mixed bag to me. games where that becomes a big thing like ark, it's a job in and of itself sifting through what fits well for you, what bugs it may cause or conflict with others, etc. etc.

You forgot to mention that because of said mods the game life has been extremely extended past it normal life span. Mods add a new way of playing the game. Look at skyrim ppl still play that game because of mods.

I wont deny that. Thatys why I want modding, but controlled modding. I dont want people to get things that others have to pay for. It's stupid.

lol bro they can already do that big whoop. i love how everyone has to be brought down because someones like i must feel superior with my money because otherwise i cant feel like im ontop of the peasants!
