nope, it has a weight of 200 on every moon, spawns between start to 5pm, doesnt despawn

wintry minnow
#

wait it increases the spawnrates of forset keepers spawning while its spawned?

calm widget
#

4x's the spawnrate of forest keepers

wintry minnow
calm widget
#

where there is a predator, there is prey

wintry minnow
#

c-

#

can we get a config on that one chief

calm widget
#

LOL

#

okay i can see the need for a config on that one

#

Ill learn how to make configs today then

left drum
#

i like luring the forest keepers

#

i always have a chase sequence on that

wintry minnow
#

4x spawns of forest giants is kinda criminal if you're playing on a particularly racist modded moon

#

cough Junic

#

cough Orion

calm widget
#

yeah but it eats em

#

realistically it could be 10x and it'd still be fine as long as you're careful

dim hull
#

Well also

#

Power level cap is still a thing

wintry minnow
#

like, does the redwood giant ALWAYS know where the forest giants are

#

and hunts them down and eats them

#

or is it line of sight

dim hull
#

If the outdoor power level is 4 and there's other stuff outside already you'll still only get like 2 keepers

wintry minnow
calm widget
#

line of sight + a decent range

#

of like 50 feet

midnight verge
#

feet?

calm widget
wintry minnow
left drum
calm widget
#

i dont think that uses outside power, not sure tho

wintry minnow
#

It should, its not an inside spawn power

calm widget
#

it shouldn't

wintry minnow
#

Imma ask with Wesley

calm widget
#

something being an inside and outside enemy isnt just a variable change

#

well it is, but its a bit more complex lol

left drum
#

@calm widget boss, I think someone want to see high quality Feet for giants...

calm widget
#

im all out

#

@dim hull took the supply

left drum
#

lmao

wintry minnow
#

wild

calm widget
#

also just to be clear

#

when someone exports a profile code

#

the configs carry over no?

wintry minnow
#

Yes

calm widget
#

I dont wanna implement stuff like Csync etc

wintry minnow
#

otherwise the desyncs would go stupid

calm widget
#

yeah okay

dim hull

#

y-ya im a feet hater too!

wintry minnow

I can say I like the work you've cooked here Xu, if you can lmk when you think u got some config settings ready or done

wintry minnow

I think I might

calm widget
#

Added some configs, will update in like 5 hours

#

Maybe more if it coincides with maghrib

shell glade
#

What're you looking for in regards to the models?
Really dig the designs

calm widget
#

I just genuinely think they could be vastly improved in terms of both the uv, actual design in the head area, and the texturing

#

My model doesn't do the reference art enough justice

#

It was my first time 3d modelling for this lol

shell glade
#

Okay! Sure thing, I'd be willing to try my hand at remodeling/texturing them. Feel free to add me on discord 👍
Any base models you've made would help on my end, just for size ref n' all that

calm widget
#

Yeah I feel like textures are currently the easiest way to change cuz it wouldn't interfere with any animations I've already made

#

So ill send ya the .blend when I'm home

#

In the future I'll definitely reach out if you're still willing while I'm making the other giant models

shell glade
#

Sounds good!
if you export it as an fbx that would work best on my end.
I can just redo the UV maps and texture it in Substance painter for the textures.

Won't touch the model/rig at all so none of that should break.

do the footsteps of the redwood hurt outside creatures like dogs, manticoils and hawks?

Also anyone here down to help me take some videos? I'm not home + ultrawide monitor so bad quality

is the giant smaller in that video?

nope, it just grows

coarse hatch

over the first 10 seconds of spawning

the spawn sound kinda sounds like a tree growing really fast or something

coarse hatch
#

yeh i just rechecked my sounds and the one from pixel is way better

#

im not good at organics

#

lmao

calm widget
#

did you know that sound was actually just pixel grabbing a bunch of balloons and stretching them?

#

idk how tf he did it to sound this good

coarse hatch
#

i love sampling random crap

#

i made a serum wavetable out of a traffic jam outside of a hotel once

it sounded like shit

but still

that’s interesting. i didn’t think it sounded like balloons.

RAAAH for some reason I couldn't look around after tabbing back into the game

#

RIGHT when a redwood grabbed a forest keeper

calm widget
#

lmao

#

unlucky

brave arch
#

BUT

#

i got two clips

terse wedge
#

I love the concept for the designs of these variants
And the redwood honestly is almost the same level of spectacle that seeing a worm out for the first time
It just looks so insane to see in game the scale of it
Tho I would say idk if that’s been fixed or mentioned yet (if so sorry) but it is a bit jank for them to just damage you in the ship
But yea like so sick so far

coarse hatch

that moon

#

is a huge forest

#

tall trees

#

and it is AMAZING

#

when you see them there

brave arch
calm widget
terse wedge
#

Alright sick!

brave arch
#

also, might be the fact that it was eclipsed and vow was tinted red a bit, but I couldn't notice the emissive red eyes

#

might be because of the angle I was looking at it too lol

calm widget
#

nope im adding the eye stuff rn

like in real life

ah yes, it was intentional

Hm I'm not familiar with how Unity handles materials tbh so I'm not entirely sure what a lot of these settings do. It seems relevant that the shader path is HDRP/Lit tho, idk if that's just standard for Unity materials tho

#

I'm sure someone more knowledgable will help you out, if you haven't already figured it out by then

ill just add a lightsource

These fools are frolic-

#

oh

#

he only targets naturally spawned giants

mortal moss
#

since it grows when it spawns, i wonder if a size config would be possible

wintry minnow
#

probably not

#

but fool is kinda clunky, ill have to test him on every map to see which ones are good for them

works well on junic

it shouldnt be, weird, imma check the code

new gaint textures look fantastic. also, was wondering why Etern wasnt spawning ol Big, Scary, and Pink XD
glad it wasnt a sudden incompatibility. thanks for reenabling :B

wintry minnow
rare vigil
#

wait new gaint?

calm widget
left granite
#

can corroborate, was spawning giants to try and get a screenshot and the pink giant won't target giants spawned using dancetools
i dunno if it's because the pink giant was spawned artificially or the forest giants, but they ignored each other

wintry minnow
#

I too am using dancetools

calm widget
#

oh yeah thats on dancetools

#

not me

#

not my fault they're not adding spawned enemies onto the list of enemies

#

they work with my tool

#

use DevTools by hamunii

#

they're an absolute cutie and its really good

calm widget

indeed

my word is absolute

Also on the topic of the actual mod for the thread we are in can’t wait to actually see the Mf

#

Played all yesterday didn’t see him

#

I see in the changelog that got fixed

left drum
#

oh it was an accidental disable

#

i did ask where it was since i was trying to look for it

#

cuz the usual forest giants chased me

#

i was running and killing some nutcrackers while sliding then when i went out. the forest giant showed up and almost caught me while going up the ship

#

the peepers made it hard to go up the ship

he ate my developer tool spawned homie

True mr sound

novel lance
#

thinking about adding this to my pack, i just need some like, clearing up

so this guy just spawns, and walks around and eats other giants, and only kills you if you get stepped on correct?

empty bay
#

Kills you if directly stepped on, and deals damage in a radius of its steps. Also if you're being eaten by a forest keeper and the redwood giant picks it up the forest keeper will be stunned and drop you

novel lance
#

thats neat yeah

#

looking at the model itself it also looks cool...

#

has anyone tested him in control company's extended mode and see what he does when controlled

#

like does the eat giants ai still work if ya just walk up to one with it

#

if not i'll just do it myself

what does this mean

no animations

in control company

novel lance
#

ehh i can also manage

coarse hatch

oh i thought you were gonna troll

#

because animations will give you away if there are none

novel lance
#

its not like its meant to be compatible anyways

novel lance
#

people cant see the animation

#

on their end?

coarse hatch
#

yeh

novel lance
#

ehhh i dont mind

i think real trolling is just spawning for a second then disappearing

#

psychological type shit

coarse hatch
#

i do that sometimes

#

i think the creepiest way to use this would be stand behind a mountain

#

if i wanted to kill someone i'd just jester them

and disappear

@calm widget Im working on a menu screen mod on the design. My question is that can you maybe provide me with some materials to make one about your mod?

mortal moss
lilac dragon
restive terrace
#

Basically thoughts about audio and by material I mean if you could make some pictures about the giant with possibly transparent background

#

For now the ones I’ve done only needed revisioned version of previous game’s music but for yours it’d need a fully custom one so we could get back to this later

calm widget
#

Sure I'll do the stuffs when I've got time in like 30 mins

restive terrace
#

You’ve got time. Theres no power in my city 😂

calm widget
#

F

#

There's these photos that meatballdemon took when he made em, prolly the highest quality you'd get, I'd rather be able to get you some more shots of the animations like eating the forest giant but im not sure how high quality I'd be able to take the pictures lol

restive terrace
#

Its worth a shot. These are quite good already but the one you mentioned would be awesome.

#

I’ll make a simple background image for starters with these tomorrow and we’ll figure out how to go about it later on. Gotta head to sleep now.

calm widget
#

Yeah it sucks how it looks from my side imo

#

I'll see if I can ask meatballdemon if they're able to help with some stuff

#

They'd cut down my time by atleast 10x tbh with how well they know their stuff

surreal totem

Can you put a transparent canvas behind him maybe?

#

I put up on my mod-collab post the two scenes I've been working on. The SCP version might need some final touches but its about complete, the Alien one still needs some work but it's shaping quite nicely 😄 Just thought I'd let you know

mortal moss
#

i think i found the cause of the redwood not eating forest keepers. it's because the forest keepers are spawned with a debug mod

calm widget
#

Don't use dancetools, use devtools

#

Hamunii's tools are always amazing

mortal moss
#

what's wrong with dancetools?

calm widget
#

It doesn't spawn enemies properly

#

Devtools uses authentic debugging tools that zeekers uses too

mortal moss
#

i'll try devtools

#

oh this is pretty much devmode which i disabled because it broke alot of things

#

dancetools is honestly much better than this. dancetools has commands for stuff like setting specific credit amounts, spawning things on you instead of in the ship (which, spawning things in the ship is extremely annoying), spawning inside enemies outside and vice versa and for the lights inside the building

lilac dragon
#

The spawn animation is so

calm widget
#

Meh*

calm widget
mortal moss
#

i'd rather have convenience over one extremely specific thing working

calm widget
#

Its not exactly extremely specific when the mod breaks monster interactions 💀

mortal moss
#

this is the only monster interaction i've seen that it breaks. like dogs and hawks interact fine

Didn't realize it was reposted till after I replied, oops

nah, playing on normal maps is too lame, i need some more sofiaticated maps ||(i am joking please do not make a fool of me)||

Also yea, I didn't create or modify the UVs for the Red Giant and there is a bit of overlap there with some of its textures.

what are the new config changes?

ebon thistle
#

holy fuck LMAO

it just killed my buddy

the shockwave attack still killed him even though he was inside the ship

i guess since he was right under the hitbox it hit him as it went down?

#

BIG DUDE

#

also i think the red eyes are a bit too much

#

like, it's a bit too edgy

mortal moss
#

yeah i don't think the red eyes look good

fickle flare
#

i haven't played with this mod yet but i wanted to say that despite not having played with this mod, that red giant showed up in my dream last night and thats kind of crazy

low girder
#

I think red eyes are fine, its just that maybe less neon and glowy

icy dirge
#

What's the weight on these giants? I've not seen them in vanilla worlds yet

ebon thistle
#

i liked the beaty white eyes it had before, looked a bit better

#

also the og concept art doesnt have em

calm widget
#

Honestly I probably messed up by a couple pixels on the emissive map lol

#

I'll try white out

calm widget
#

I can fix it if you say insta kill but shockwave shouldn't damage inside ship

ebon thistle
#

hmm

#

yeah it was probably the one shot

#

cuz he was RIGHT under the foot lmao

calm widget
#

Lol

ebon thistle
#

like, the mf jus twalked in and stepped on my boy

calm widget
#

I'll send a fix out later, didn't bother cuz I didn't think the foot would reach

ebon thistle
#

ye, it can just kinda walk through the ship

#

like, it stayed wandering with its foot inside the ship for like a good minute

calm widget
#

Oh lol

#

I thought the colliders u added would kinda stop that

#

I*

ebon thistle
#

yeah, no idea

calm widget
#

okay glowing eye is a lost cause

#

no glowing eyes for you

ebon thistle
#

im fine with no glowing eyes, i'm just not a fan of the red

#

i actually like that they don't glow so it can tower over you and just cast a huge, black uninterrupted shadow

wintry minnow
#

I like the idea of red eyes 😢

ebon thistle
#

oh nah dw it's just my personal opinion hehe

calm widget
#

red eyes stay, glowing eyes do not

wintry minnow
#

Im imagining Gloom in pitch black darkness from Diversity and a red giant looming in the distance as you cant see anything but its red eyes and loud footsteps

wintry minnow
#

couldnt get it to glow?

calm widget
#

nah i got it to glow

#

there were just problems with the UV of the model itself

#

so the glow would spread to other places

wintry minnow
#

ah

#

wacky

ebon thistle
calm widget
#

lol

#

i wouldnt even know how i would do a config for that

valid flame
#

this mod is good and models are amazing but are they scary to encounter like do u think its easy to get jumpscared bc of them

#

and amazing mod

#

i havent tried it out yet

wintry minnow
#

Unless like you play with no audio, with one eye open, you will see and hear the thing from a mile away

valid flame
#

what sounds they make

#

can u describe

#

very slowly.

valid flame

:p

ebon thistle
#

i agree wholeheartedly with those people

also messing with the colliders and you cant pass through him anymore

this should also make him interact properly with the terrain more

#

Can redwood stomp other monsters?

#

He can eat giants but can he step on dogs and whatnot

gusty talon
#

Just empty void

#

Or those like giant eyes that are supposed to be fake patterns

calm widget
#

[BESTIARY] TheGiantSpecimens

gusty talon
#

Have you thought about any appearance/behaviour changes to redwood once it eats a giant?

wise briar
#

it starts choking on the giant and just dies

gusty talon
#

Is it weird that I see redwood more often than normal giants?

#

Ig normal giants need to be walked over like landmines to spawn

#

And redwood just

#

Shows up

#

Establishes dominance

#

Does not elaborate

calm widget
#

check configs, its like 200 spawn weight

#

but then after they spawn

#

they give forest keepers a spawn multiplier

#

by like 4xd

#

4x*

#

also a config thing

#

i recommend making it higher or keeping it hte same

gusty talon
#

That makes sense

#

I kinda forgot about configs

livid aurora
#

Will the bug where their feet clip through the ship be fixed in the next update?

It should've fixed it

If not then I brokenit

Does this work with fair giants mod and giant motion sense?

lilac dragon
#

No

#

They function entirely different

wintry minnow
#

I think they are asking if there any issues with those mod and this mod

#

As fair giants and motionsense only affects Vanilla forest giants and doesn’t touch the Redwood giant, there are no issues

midnight verge
#

oh no wonder u cant really see the glowing red eyes.. their eyes are just so high up and sunken in that u cant really see from below.

Does the Redwood giant make any noises besides the stomping? Cuz if not some deep, low growling would be pretty cool

midnight verge
#

besides stomping, it makes another noise when eating a forest giant

wintry minnow
#

I could have sworn

#

It has some low growling

#

Back me up here Xu

midnight verge
#

ya i hear growling when it eats

wintry minnow
#

Even when before it eats

midnight verge
#

ok imma check

wintry minnow
#

Just walking around if you get near it

midnight verge
#

wtf

#

it sounds like kevin hart for some reason

wintry minnow
#

Unless I’m tweakin

#

LMAO

midnight verge
#

spawns, initial low growl

#

stomp stomp stomp

#

spawn in forest giant, loud ass growl (as it consooms)

#

stomp stomp..

#

squishy noise when i get stomped on

#

yeah sorry kevin hart, ur tweakin

#

is there any worm - pink giant interaction?

lilac dragon
#

He should eat the worm

gusty talon
#

How big is he compared to a worm

lilac dragon
#

(Should specify he doesn’t do that I just mean it would be funny)

lilac dragon
gusty talon
#

This needs to be documented

wintry minnow
#

Kevin Hart vs Redwood giant

#

I say they are about the same size

gusty talon
#

I think giant is wider

wintry minnow
gusty talon
#

Like double the width

#

And about the same height

midnight verge
#

i noticed that whenever the pink giant grabs the forest giant to eat.. they kinda teleport across the map

#

is that a known bug or is that just me with some sort of conflicting mod?

gusty talon
#

Any planned death/despawn animations for giant?

wintry minnow
#

The giant

#

Doesn’t despawn

I don’t actually thing any enemy despawns

And you obviously can’t kill it

no video player showing up? 😔

#

wanted to show the giant teleporting thing

calm widget
#

is this ingame or in test world

#

cuz i've seen this before in test world and im honestly not too sure

midnight verge
#

its on offense**

#

ive seen it happen on experimentation too

calm widget
#

ehh ill do collider magic and hope it works

midnight verge
#

when u figure out the particle stuff.. besides the stomp particles. should also do particles for when it eats forest giant too. blood or something similar.
forest giants do that too when they eat u.

midnight verge
#

ahhh

#

no wonder

#

i should encode in avc then huh

Shit sorry

ok this time i encoded with avc

#

so now discord video player shows up 👍

#

yeah i can imagine it.. the moment the forest giant disappears from being eaten... a splattering of blood particles comes raining down.

calm widget

That movement bug should be gone

#

Plus I'll do some improvements to make it stay away from the ship

Tried to copy the brackens way they do it

  • movement particles, eating particles, more config options, fixing body colliders properly, staying away from ship, better movement AI, fixing animation sync when eating multiple forest keepers in a row, increase giants albedo value or detailed map thing, allow giant to damage baboon hawks and dogs and kill them but try to avoid them

I'm unsure what i've fixed recently tbh so changelog might not reflect the true update, but it should be fine

Checklist

#

If anyone has any extra problems just say em

midnight verge
#

additional config options:
-allow redwood giant spawn (true/false checkbox) (so in the future people can have control over what giant specimens they want)
-Spawn On: (list of moon levels/moon category(vanilla/modded/all))

calm widget
#

Spawn on: is definitely planned but no idea how to do it with lethal lib

#

So maybe later I'll figure it out

midnight verge
#

ive seen some other mods have u follow up the moon level/category with a colon or '@' and the spawn weight number

#

but yeah to figure out for later

#

cant wait to see the particles

turn blood particle tan and more "cloudy". sawdust

whats the difference between pink giant and redwood giant?

coral veldt

there is no difference

its the same thing

I'll need to make my own search algorithm or modify the game's

I mean... I don't think it's gonna help much but I was gonna check anyway lol

Hmm giant boi doesnt seem to spawn on Starlancer moons

calm widget

No reason it wouldnt

#

Blame @hollow garnet otherwise

#

His maps are too big

pale flame

It should auto be spawnable on starlancer moons

Unless LLL does something to mess with lethal libs spawn weight I've given

@trim flax does it?

is there a way to simulate monster spawn like u can with dungeon interior?

calm widget
#

Uhhhh

#

Don't think it's a feature from what I know

the simulate command is an LLL thing right?

dim roost

spawned one immediately on an eclipsed Etern (by magic_wesley) yesterday. immediately made it half as deadly outside

ionic hearth
#

im editing the spawn weight on moons with LLL. I saw in default redwoodgiant is 200 but the file LLL generate does not have it. should i add redwoodgiant back myself? because i know that peeper has its own way to spawn and need all spawn weight be 0, do redwoodgiant also have some critera like this?

calm widget
#

idk tbh

#

lol

#

this is all things you would ask @trim flax

lilac dragon
calm widget
#

i mean eventually after i release the other giants itll feet more balanced

#

plus

#

if its too safe, just increase the forest keeper multiplier :p

#

i can also do things like decreasing its view range etc

zenith knoll
#

IS THAT BRUTAL COMPANY MINUS?

#

What is that

#

I might need that for uh

#

a certain red faced monster

ionic hearth
#

just a LLL config file

zenith knoll
#

Whats LLL again?

#

🤔

calm widget
#

lethal level loader

zenith knoll
#

Ooooooh

That lets you control what monsters can spawn in and out?

#

WAIT

If that is so… ||I can make dogs spawn inside?||

calm widget

idk

zenith knoll
#

Oh

young crystal
calm widget
midnight verge
calm widget
#

i can replicate it easily

calm widget
#

its just about my animators being done right

zenith knoll
#

And you have the option to edit what spawns outside with what number of chance

midnight verge
#

uh i don’t think it deals with spawns

zenith knoll
calm widget
# young crystal What is it?

basically if the giant is doing its idle animation, it wont grab the forest keeper even if its being collided with, the problem comes when the animations start like walking and chasing, i think i need to redo my animator because to start the eating animation i have it so that it needs to get out of idle, start walking, then start chasing, THEN it can eat

#

but it starts eating before the animation starts

#

which sometimes breaks audio (i dont actually know why for that one) and makes the animation desync'd visually

#

my current solution is just allowing both walking and chasing animations to grab the giant

young crystal
calm widget
#

and then making the transition be basically 0 of hte other animators

#

yeah sure gimme a sec

#

current setup

midnight verge
#

tbh i’ve never touched the LLL config, but i guess u can mess with spawns. talk about this in #1214224631108608070 since this is unrelated to #1208964227835109407

calm widget
#

and the time stuff

young crystal
#

Make use of the blue node

#

I don't remember the name of it

calm widget
#

any state but i think ill just make a transition from walk to eat forest keeper instead

#

the problem is that if i use any state, itll allow idle Cycle into eating animation

#

and i dont think i want to pause the idle animation?

young crystal
#

That's it

calm widget
#

yep, thats already there, so ig ill just add the arrow from walk cycle too now

young crystal
#

Transition conditions: isEating & isWalking

#

Something like that

#

So idle won't trigger the eating animation but walking and running will have no problem

calm widget
#

will try

young crystal
#

And you can just go from eating to idle when the eating is over

calm widget
#

this aint confusing at all

young crystal
#

And your problem should be gone

calm widget
#

anyway im actually fasting, i was supposed to start eating like 10 minutes ago so imma grab some food 💀

the exact problem is that if it grabs the forest keeper as soon as it starts the chase, it starts the eating animation late, if i give it a second, it starts the eating animation properly @young crystal

@calm widget did you figure out how to make the giant stop stepping inside of the ship btw?

it'll take a second but while thats happening

can I ask what you use to register your enemy into the game?

i dont use exit time btw, only with eat forest keeper --> idle cycle do i use it

#

I think I managed to figure out particles

#

Only problem is that they look pretty shit

#

Also I take it back, while I have figured out particles, I need to figure them out better, need to do something like taking the texture from the ground the giant is stepping on and using that for particles

calm widget
midnight verge
#

maybe use the same particles as when the worm is about to come out of the ground

#

and the blood particles from when the forest giant is eating people

calm widget
#

Forest keeper wouldn't really bleed tbh

But I think I got some good material

#

Blood can be for squishing

i did see him slide into boulders while he was eating the forest giant, but i thought it was the sliding causing that

um

#

one of the redwoods saw a forest giant being eaten by another and got stuck upon reaching that location

#

forest giants in the eating animaton shouldn't be able to be detected

i mean i can fix it

#

but its not a bug on my end to spawn more than 1

safe maple
#

oh only 1 is meant to spawn? ok nvm

calm widget
#

btw did you do something to change it being only 1 to spawn?

#

I can do something on my end to force it to stay as 1 rather that rely on unity's option saying only 1
