PMEP (Procompsognathus100 and Mamenchi Expansion Pack)

Ladies and Gentlemen, with great honour I present you the new Expansion Pack for JPOG!!
                                         
                                                 



Here's the trailer and presentation of our new expansion pack:

I managed to make this a reality thanks to Procompsognathus100, who created amazing new behaviours and mods for the dinosaurs!!!

This new pack also includes new skies, a new type of grass, new sounds ( taken from the bbc series Planet Dinosaur ) and a complete reskin for all the dinosaurs!

Now every dinosaur has its own style and behaviour, so we'll present them together with the new skins:

GALLIMIMUS

DRYOSAURUS


These two small herbivores have a new fighting behaviour: they try to hit their rivals with their beaks and rear up to frighten them.

HOMALOCEPHALE


Homalocephale will now hit its aggressor with its head, and will fight for territory, like any other herbivore.

PACHYCEPHALOSAURUS


Apart from the common headbutt hit, Pachycephalosaurus has a new way of defence: it now tries to scare away its aggressor and if it gets too close it will attack immediately. The territorial behavior has also been modified, to add more realism in the game.

STEGOSAURUS

ANKYLOSAURUS

KENTROSAURUS


These armed tanks have a new way of defence: while Kentrosaurus simply swings its tail to hit the predator, Stegosaurus and Ankylosaurs have higher chances of killing their aggressor with a powerful attack. In fact they can use their deathduel animation to kill every predator attacking from the front!
Besides, they dispute in a new way: They use their mass to scare their opponent, using at the same time a lot of animations. If the opponent persists in fighting, the other will knock it down with its tail!

PARASAUROLOPHUS

EDMONTOSAURUS

CORYTOSAURUS

OURANOSAURUS


These large herbivores are no more than defenseless herbivores...but they won't flee without a fight! They can now use their large tails to hit every aggressor attacking from behind. Edmontosaurus also uses its head to hit carnivores, and it rears up to crash the smaller ones onto the ground!
They too have a new territorial behaviour: they threaten their opponent by hitting it with their body and using warning signals. Each one of them reacts in a different way when attacked and knocked down by a predator.

CAMARASAURUS

BRACHIOSAURUS


These two huge herbivores now have more defensive capabilities and become very hard prey to kill! Brachiosaurus can now scare away its opponent with its huge mass, and if it doesn't retreat, it rears up to crash it into the ground, crushing it under its weight. Camarasaurus uses almost the same method, but with a difference: it can knock over its aggressor with its massive tail!
Both of them uses threatening displays when fighting for territory.

STYRACOSAURUS

TOROSAURUS

TRICERATOPS


These herbivores possess a new amazing defense behaviour: like today's oxen and african buffalo, they stay together to scare away their aggressor and for mutual protection. They create a wall which doesn't allow to the predator to kill one of them. The predator can choose to retreat, or worst, face with an angry herd when getting too close, risking so to be killed. However even if not in a group, an isolated ceratopsian won't be an easy target.
These herbivores too have the possibility of fighting for territory, using threat displays or hitting each other with their heads.

CERATOSAURUS

ALBERTOSAURUS


These two medium carnivores will be able to grab little prey and shake them until they die. They also attack the sides of larger herbivores repeatedly to weaken them, being able to get an easier meal without many injuries. ALBERTOSAURUS takes advantage of its strong bite force by repeatedly biting its prey to tear off flesh and crush bone to kill it, much like its larger and more powerful relative, the king itself.

VELOCIRAPTOR


These small predators will now act in groups to kill every creature that walks nearby. They will also attack small prey together, even if it has been knocked down by a fellow member of the group, for maximum killing effect.

DILOPHOSAURUS


These little Jurassic predators, can now spit venom at prey more frequently, killing so the prey faster. They can also latch on larger prey while spitting...

ALLOSAURUS


Taking inspiration from Planet Dinosaur, this hunter can now use its jaws like an axe, hitting its prey with its mouth open repeatedly to weaken it. It will also fight for territory like any other large carnivore.

ACROCANTHOSAURUS


This big predator will now hit its prey with a powerful bite, ripping off flesh and tearing through muscle, until the prey weakens to the point of being unable to resist for long. They too will fight for territory with other large carnivores.

CARCHARODONTOSAURUS


This mighty predator kills its victim without any chance for them to survive. It hit its prey repeatedly and rips apart big chunks of flesh... but it doesn't waste much energy, so after a lot of hits, it will retreat, waiting for the prey to die from blood loss. It will fight for territory too...

SPINOSAURUS


This large predator spends the majority of its time near water, ambushing its prey....There is also a chance that it uses its deathduel animation ( the one it uses to kill Trex ) to knock down the prey, using its thick gripping teeth to keep the prey from escaping, while its powerful arms slash the prey apart, killing it instantly. It will also fight for territory.....

TYRANNOSAURUS


The king of the cretaceous has its own killing method too... taking inspiration from walking with dinosaurs, it now hits the prey repeatedly with is powerful jaws, crushing bone, killing its prey. It fights for territory as well.....


This modification allows you to play JPOG in a better way when you have the high terrain settings and the water reflection activated.
But keep in mind that this modification can affect in a bad way the camera vision of the game when you play with the medium terrain quality. So, when you play with PMEP, remember to use only the high terrain settings.

For those who have an old computer and can run the game only with medium terrain quality, you don't need this modification. Just keep the old lines in the Constant.ini file, that is these ones:

HIGH_TerrainDrawDistance = 480;
HIGH_SkySegs = 20;
HIGH_SkySlices = 20;
HIGH_SkyHeight = 100;

Then turn the game to "32 bits" from the main menu, otherwise, if the game is at 16 bit, the skins of the dinosaurs won't show up.

In the folder you will download there will be one particular folder called "dds files": those are just the single skins of the dinosaurs, put one by one in case you want to use them with other skins from other expansion packs. This is recommended to people who already know how to put skins in game.
However you actually don't have to put the dds files in the game, they are just an extra: in order to get the skins just insert the "matlibs" ( the skins are already in those files ).
The same thing goes for the "picture folder": you don't need to put it in Data, it's just an extra that contains photos to show you the various skins of the dinosaurs.

All the folders you have downloaded ( except those folders mentioned above, called "dds files" and the photos ) must be put into C:/programs/universal interactive/ Blue Tongue Software / Jurassic Park operation genesis/ JPOG/ Data

Remember to make a backup of your original files, so that if you get tired of this mod, you can always return to what your game was like before.

Before downloading, go to your Constant.ini file, find these lines:

HIGH_TerrainDrawDistance = 480;
HIGH_SkySegs = 20;
HIGH_SkySlices = 20;
HIGH_SkyHeight = 100;

and modify them into this:

HIGH_TerrainDrawDistance = 18000;
HIGH_SkySegs = 100;
HIGH_SkySlices = 100;
HIGH_SkyHeight = 4000;

If you wish to use things from our pack as part of your project, ASK PERMISSION from one of us first.

Now, we present to you, the download link for our modification:

We hope you will enjoy your JPOG experience now! Have fun!XD

Note: To activate some of the really new modifications(for large carnivores in particular) please make sure that you install the new Units folder with the Sound folder AND most importantly, the Models folder. Thank you - P100

If anyone has problems, just contact one of us, we'll be glad to help you!

SEE YOU SOON FOR OTHER MODS!!

Wheres the link for the download?

Wait, I still have to put pictures and link, I'm editing this topic now.

Ok, that's a relief to know

Dude!!!! The best of all of your work! (That is just my opinion) Awesomee

Just one thing guys . THIS MOD JUST BEATED OTHERS TO DUST !!!!!!!!!! . Truly AWESOME guys !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

will this work for low quality or medium quality users? Another question why do we need to change things what do they do?

Thanks all of you for your appreciation of our work.
derp: The environment mods might not work for low and med quality users. Now I believe you're still new to modding JPOG, so I'll tell you:
You need to replace things because the new ones contain all the modifications, and they change much of what happens in the game. For example: you have a file in the Win folder known as TricDfnd. This is the file that controls the behavior of Trikes and other dinosaurs that fight with their horns or head, when they see a predator. The original file only makes them attack predators by charging at them, and nothing else. But if you download the TricDfnd file in our pack, it has all the new behavior we told you about for those dinosaurs that use it. Hope this helped.

Thank you Tyrannodude.
Just gonna tell you that I love your series Dinosauria, and I hope you can use our mods for your upcoming episodes.

AWESOME!!!!! I give it (10/10)

Oh yes! Of course! I'll make sure of it! These skins are great! & thank you!

This can easily be called THE best expansion pack since the GEP came out. Great job guys

P100, this mod is amazing. It surpasses SEP 3, GEP and CC. i think you have more skill then the legendary ERC. Mamenchi, you are one of the few skinners to use high quality tmls and skins. Part of a very short list. And you have shown your one of the best skinners around! Im proud of you two, maybe JP:OGs not quite dead yet I think Mamenchi also deserves the pro skinners rank.

How come it haven't been done yet? :S Pro skinner right away!
JPOG ain't that dead as people whine.

I'm very impressed by what you two have done with the game, I have to say I din't think half these behaviors were even possible Procompso, and the skins look amazing Mamenchi, definately some of your best work. I've already installed the pack and tried out all the animations and I didn't see any bugs so far, but sadly my computer I guess is an older model and can't support the high graphics required for Mamenchi's epic skies and backdrops, and based on what I've seen in the pictures, I'm missing out on A LOT.

The Dryosaurus and Gallimimus "pecking" looks almost something you'd see seagulls doing at a rookery, however, I wish their was some kind of defensive animation for them. Modern day ostriches can cause fatal injuried with their kicks, and I'd expect Ornithomimids and small ornithopods to probobly use the long claws on their feet for just that. Eh, maybe it's an idea for an expantion, but of course, their is probobly no animation for it. Pitty.

The other behaviors you made Procompso are also great, the ceratopsian deffensive behavior is great by what I've seen so far, and the Armored dinosaur attacks are great. I'm most impressed by with the new carnivore attacks though, especially since each attach suits the predator SOOO well. Despite the fact recent scientific studies suggest Brachiosaurs couldn't rear up on its hind legs, the animation is still very good and it looks epic to see it crash down onto it's enemy.

I only have one problem with this pack; the fact the Dilophosaurus still spits venom. In a pack where it seems you spent a lot of hard work trying to make these animals as realistic as possible, I'm somewhat disapointed that the Dilophosaurus still has the unrealistic attack method. I know it is possible to change the animation, as S77, I mean Edge, did it with his Tanycolagreus in the SEP pack. I think it would've been interesting to see some new biting and slashing animations put up, rather than just spitting, although the latching was great.

I'm also somewhat disapointed that the Raptors arent' feathered. We've known large raptors were feathered since ~2007, and I prefer the more realistic Raptors over the "Naked" variety. I know you can't make the feathers on the arms, but recently I've been seeing an increased trend in making feathered raptors with things like DR and PD comming out. I just guess I wish you continued the trend a bit.

I hate to be a stickler for details about a few things I dislike out of a pack full of likes, especially since I know many people who play the game that love the poision animation and the "naked" raptors, but I personally just think it would've been an improvement. Other than that though, you've definately made a breakthrough with this Expantion Pack. It is epic, colorful, realistic, and makes the game fun to play all at the same time.

Perhaps as a comparison, I would consider it an articulated Spinosaurus specimen with skin imprestions and stomach content, but is sadly missing only a few tail vertabrea. The disapointment of the missing tail is FAR outweigheed by the rest of the prize. I can't wait to see what you can both do next, and be sure that I'll be playing with this Pack for the next few days.

P.S. Also, I support the title of Pro Skinner to Mamenchi. I personally think he deserved it quite a while ago, but better late than never.

I've found a few bugs with this.
1. You still have ERCs size mod on it
2. I have no visible water :S
3. And this extremely strange bug when I zoom in and look up:


dw bout three sorry, your draw distance needs to be on high

Thank you really guys!!! I appreciated it!! And thank you for giving me the rank of pro-skinner!!! It's good to see that your work is somehow appreciated!

As for your discover, Edge, this happens because the Constant.ini file has been modified... and sadly this is a side effect... in order to eliminate the fog, the far distance has been increased so much, that now it's very difficoult to support that sky without that modification. For this reason the reflex in water has been affected too! I still have to find a way to correct all of this, because I don't like these disadvantages too!

Anyway thank you all again!XD

Great Job Work Mamenchi and P101 !!

Amazing modifications guys! Quality skins and realistic behaviours, splendid!

Thank you all for your compliments!
RaptorX: I understand your issues, but here are some things to tell you:
1. It is impossible to make Galli or Dryo attack with kicks because there is no anim that shows so.
2. Dilopho was originally planned to be non-venomous, but we had to rush some decisions a bit. BTW, I am the one who made Edge's Tanycolagreus attack like that
No offense Edge.
But thanks for your appreciation!
Right now, I am planning to fix the stuff that needs to be fixed..Dilophosaurus will attack without spitting, like what I've done many times before with Ornitholestes, I will remove ERC's size mod which I panicked into the folder....and some more.....

Nothing there to offend me xD

i luv this pack so much! i did an african cretaceous island and had this huge herd of ouranosaurus and then come spinosaurs and instead of running in circles they did this amazing stampede down the island

I've been having some troubles replacing sounds. when i replace them they don't seem to change. Any ideas?

derp, if you don't mind, I have to tell you that you've just broken a rule. Don't double post ok? So you have less trouble, try using the edit buttion on the right upper side of the post. But for now, since I'm in a good mood, I won't warn you. Just don't do it again ok?
Thank you.

Now first thing, you may be placing it in the wrong folder....try going to your data folder, and copy-paste the sound folder. It should ask if you want to replace files and merge folders. Click yes for all of these. That should work. And thanks dude for the compliment on my "stampede" or "herding" mod!
