I love the giga's sound but it does seem a bit weak. Especially if I tame it with a horse at level 40 and have to wait till 96 to get a saddle. Also one roar seem to cut off a bit sharply and I do not know how hard this would be but a 3rd roar that could be similar to the others but has an echo.

will the nanuq and giga be getting icons for cryopods?

Awesome dinos! However, I have noticed that the GIga "stutters" when moving around almost as if time consistently freezes and resumes on its animations. No other dinos do this both mod wise and vanilla. Do you know what may be causing this awkward movement? I haven't tried taming yet, but creatures that have done this in the past usually don't move this way when you are riding and in control.

I think the dinos in your mod are really great, they bring more variety and new dinos into the game, but one thing that bothers me is the graphics of the dinos. The models are really well done, but some parts of the body are a bit poor in terms of graphics, e.g. the horns of the Giganotosaurus. The eyes of all three dinosaurs could also be improved and revised a bit. I hope you take it as an aid to improve your mod. Maybe you could make some improvements there, because the quality is more important than the quantity

Also you can't cryo the gigga

jesshall23 Apr 28 @ 4:27pm

The giga is a little under powered in my opinion. Need to make damage output more and have a stacking bleed. It just feels useless as of now. But great design just lack luster in damage

I don't really like Ark's Tyrannosaurus, so I want you to make the latest Tyrannosaurus here!

Hauki [author] Apr 24 @ 6:57pm

@SquallTemnov Gotcha, I'll double-check it in kit. Giga and Nanuq saddle BPs are currently not obtainable, but I will be adding them to the drops of Alpha Utahraptor in the meantime before I set up Alpha Nanuq and Alpha Giga.

@Phatness They should be, though its possible the lost island devkit update broke their spawners, as they were using a dummy spawn zone. I'll check this too.

@blueswimmingdimetrodon Thank you so much for your extensive comment! So, The Primal Path is primarily made by me as well as Shadlos, who reached out to collaborate. I model, animate and texture everything, as well as doing what I can on the devkit coding side of things, and Shadlos helps code new mechanics like Giga's special bleed, as well as making sure things are nice and tidy and fixing any mistakes I make on the coding side. He is essentially my mentor, and I'm quite grateful for his help!

Love the textures, very polished looking with little room for improvement! (Feathers are not easy to get right)

Nanuqsaurus- I feel like the anti-fear roar should have a longer cool-down.

Utah- I play with friends and a two seat saddle would be nice! A bit large. A roar would be cool
I think a little tail feather movement would be cool. A small pack bonus would be epic

Giga- Perfect

Overall amazing mod. Keep up the great work!

blueswimmingdimetrodon Apr 24 @ 2:20pm

Is this mod made by just you? Or are there other people working on this mod? I can not tell, Are the sounds are custom or already in-game?
