Rogue, I think the Pelagornis spawner is acting funny. I have done several dino wipes and waits, all pelagornis appear to spawn below the 100.0 lattitude (inaccessible through border) along the entire southern border. Also, I have never seena titano yet, but I am hoping to see one soon!!

The spawn volume for the Pelagornis seems to have been partially over the border. Moved it up and added a couple more spawners, one along the eastern coast and one near the northwestern isles :) The Titano, as well as the other semi random spawns were actually adjusted in today's update to improve the likelihood of encountering them, so you might get to meet one in the very near future :)

Archaeopteryx is aviable?
HrkiGV Mar 24, 2018 @ 12:28am 
just to add comment, spawn rates of Argentavis, Wolves, Mammoths, Otter are to high, but ultra rare Pelagornis, Ovis, Raptors and some others
Bully Mar 26, 2018 @ 1:37am 
Reaper, Ravanger, Basilisk spawn too?

Sorry about the delayed response :( went through Olympus's dino spawn entries and it does seem the Archaeopteryx was missed. Thanks for bringing it to my attention and I'll have them added for next update :)

Part of this imbalance is caused by the size and quantity of biomes they inhabit in relation to eachother. I can have a look and see about adjusting some areas to balance things out a little more where possible :)

Ravager and Basilisk can be found in the swamp artifact cave, Reaper can now be encountered in the new cave under the redwood island.

I see patchnotes for 3.3 that water dinos were added to the swamp cave, but I don't see anything new especially anything aquatic? What should be spawning in there now?

Should have been spawning similar creatures to Aberration's fertile water, aberrant coel, piranha, spinos, etc. Double checked the spawner and believe I've found the problem, just have to test it and should have them working right in the next patch :)

Holy moly abberant spinos are coming? I've been mass breeding the normal variant of them since before their TLC and you're giving me more work now haha

Sorry, forgot to list them lol. They can be found all across the map, usually 5 - 6 spawned at any time :)

Thank you so much for creating this list. I do have a question, are the spawns all vanilla creature spawns (ie: Direwolf_Character_BP_C) with the exception of abberation creatures. I love the map and am trying to get another mod (Capitalism Currency) to work with it.

Glad you're enjoying Olympus :) The majority of spawns are vanilla, only exceptions are the bio rex and the wild ice wyvern.
