#Carnivores (Series)
1 messages · Page 12 of 1
I don't think that's in Nightdive's control anymore, but Atari has bought IP's fairly recently, such as Roller Coaster Tycoon and Surgeon Simulator
Oh yeah it's indeed a perfectly legit reason. I mean, why the fuck would you like to develop a game on the frontline.
But they already lost interest in carnivores LOOOOONG before. The last thing we had was the canon-style skins
It was 6 years ago
Again carnivores fans have been beaten up for years hence why our hope for this remaster is so high
Some hearts got removed
That was a replacement account and a couple of alt accounts
Still more votes than was there last month
Hm
C nice
Freg

Also I just say random things to keep the channel visible because it disappears after awhile for me
Yesh
I'm almost sure someone already tried to slap the G-LAR texture onto nocdes LAR
But the "SPECULAR" part (the thing that gives the S H I N Y look) wasn't applied so I went on
I'll remove it if asked
If memory serves right you can’t just post a random file in the server
So I recommend linking it to something else
And deleting it
Yes please. Sorry I missed this earlier, there's been a lot of kerfuffle in other channels
You hear the bundle
Not asking due to copyright or anything, just security, since we (non carnivore players) can't guarantee it's safe
Done
That's almost impossible to infect a .car file
But it's done
Is there a lot of M.E.E ports of Carnivores Triassic?
@crisp stag you've been told before
there's at least one but any are "unofficial" since the creator of triassic retired from modding and none of the mee ports have been done by their close friends
rules is rules, not everyone knows what a car file is so to everyone else you are still a rando posting a raw file saying "trust me bro, its not infected"
plus we're still trying to not be side-saga
I get we want modding and we discuss about carnivores mods but really we should be solely focusing on the original three games
And for night dive to remaster them
I have seen CuriousCancer port of Triassic over the 1.0.2 M.E.E.
What I'm trying to do is to make a port over the 1.1.1 version.
Alright, I'll apply
Sorry for the ping but what websites can I use to link files I want to share ?
I'm not familiar with file sharing, just use something that states they scan for malware
might be hard because anywhere can claim they scanned for malware
60% is a failing grade
You should just not be distributing game files, modded or otherwise, in a discussion channel centered around game rereleases and remasters
Indeed I should keep the channel active rather than upload random things.
I had good intent when I posted this, but now I realized it only bothered people.
Sorry to be a deadlift.
I hope at some point nightdive remasters this game like they did with doom. The mods for carnivores can be on a browser like they did for doom. Whether they take it or not is up to them though. I'd really love to play carnivores on console tho
oof that actually would be worse considering what i've been seeing in the doom channel here
Most of Doom I+II's issues with mods that I (a non-Doom player) see are related to 1) weird moderation from Bethesda, 2) a lack of curation features, 3) misleading and duplicate mods (so many myhouses), 4) the interface being lackluster and basically needing to be managed from website instead of console
There may be others, but that's what I see folks talk about
Us folks from the other doom servers seem to really like it. It's convenient to finally play with others online, especially on a console. I also think it's way harder to upload a joke mod into carnivores then in doom. I would think it depends on the community too, the carnivores community is not as lare or vast as the doom community, less chance to introduce bozos who copy and spam already existing mods
I am absolutely fine with just the 3 original games but having mods on console especially would elevate the remaster
Depends on what Nightdive wants to do
True, also I can't imagine a Carnivores project would be with doing at all if it doesn't support the existing mod scene
That seems to be 60% of the enthusiasm I see in this thread
Ye ofc, it stimulates the community and increases replayability. But in the end it's up to Nightdive
I will wait years
Yeah I'm not gonna lie, Carnivores without mods is not Carnivores.
An internal tool would be useful for consoles.
Steam Workshop is limited to one platform, and I'd not mind giving that up if we could somehow keep our mods some other way.
I mean still, would love to have a better looking carnivores with 2560x1080 resolution support
I actually wouldn't even call it replayability since majority of mods are standalone.
Carnivores basically has just a bunch of free sequels/expansion packs, and they completely change every map, weapon, and animal. The only thing consistent between the mods is the same base hunting mechanics which allows for each mod to be super creative
Compare that to doom where more often mods are mission packs with the same weapons and monsters, and total conversions are rarer
This is very true, but there are some diamonds in the rough, whereas the people in the carnivores modding scene straight up make new games, even that modders engine they added and keep updating is so fascinating
There's alot of good mods

Venator left?
Appears so. They aren't on the ban list so they are welcome to come back if they choose to
Oh okay
I thought he was banned, but I respect his decision if he left by his own initiative.
Yeh
any news to this?
Atari might still own the publishing rights of these games, probably? Wasn't aware these games were so beloved, they look fun though!
when did Atari ever own the rights to Carnivores?
oh duh I forgot about Infogrames
afaik Infogrames only published Cityscape and none of the others
infogrames was a publisher not a developer
I don't think anyone said that
bringing up infogrames is enough
tatem are the rights owners

Since when people start making Jurassic Park Mods???
always has been a thing
Damn
I just saw that Jurassic World Revolution fromn Tormer
And there was releases before it
That guy surely has talent!
What would be the oldest mod?
someone editing their starting money on release day and never uploading their personal edit of the game file
I mean released publicly, not personal projects
A
B
how about that carnivores huh
getting rights and stuff isn't always easy and plus ND is busy with other projects

There will not be Shringasaurus for the next update of the port I am making.
I Has Returned
Omg, molten Irri
Make a "molten" irritator skin and call it barry
@undone abyss T'as besoin d'aide pour ton mod ?
True
Now this series right here gave me excellent memories of what it felt to either hunt or be hunted. I remember for a fact that there was one time when a Velciraptor had literally showed up out of nowhere and killed me. Needless to say, 6 year old me was very reluctant to continue playing the game after that experience.
Do u happen to have a PC ?
Maintenant que chuis un peu plus libre, j'aurais plus de temps pour taffer dessus, mais je dirais pas non à ton aide !
Yep, I the PC that I have used for the last 8 years has a whole assortment of games through Steam and GOG. I also just recently switched to Linux, and it is probably one of the best investments that I have done. Proton runs most games like a charm.
If they were to remaster the game, they could make smt similar to the M.E.E to keep it interesting with the dino variants and extra ai slots
"If they were"
I highly recommand you to play some mods around (like Legacy, or Fallen Kings). You could have a good time.
Might add more content to my deviantart soon.
G.M.R got Hacked! (I think)
Oh damn, never thought I'd see the day.
I did not add the night filter, DLC maps or the erythrosuchus. I will wait for the MEE next update to release mine.
@cerulean sluice Any idea when Nightdive might contact Tatem/Digital Dreams about the rights for this
None of us are really going to know when/if that happens. Nightdive tends to prefer either shadow drops or short announcements for their games, so all the backstage stuff will be hidden unless Stephen decides to leak it on Bluesky or Reddit
I'm aware there's quite a backlog of existing projects, but no idea what they are beyond SiN Reloaded
My money is definitely on Dark Forces II.
Maybe the Hexen II + Heretic II bundle.
Yeah, there are some fairly easy bets, but beyond work on existing titles like No Mouth, Turoks, SSR, and SiN Reloaded, nothing's been firmly stated.
I also wouldn't be shocked at all to see another fruit from the Universal and 3DO trees
My own fingers are crossed for Turok: Evolution, and King Kong personally.
I need more saurs.
I know Carnivores is still a long shot at the time.
King Kong has been mentioned on Deep Dive episodes, and Evolution is just kind of a no brainer.
I'm hoping for Trespasser, but part of me wants that to be the next Unreal Engine project, as that would benefit from a ground up remake
Trespasser was fun, but it is kind of atrocious to play, even without the bugs.
Exactly!
Takes a lot of getting used to.
I did love having to line my gun up properly though.
Trespasser needs a VR remake.
Fight me on it. XD
No, I actually like that suggestion
UE5 remake, in VR.
With the classic game as a bonus for preservation purposes.
AVP2 would be a banger too, actually.
I'm sure ND would jump at that one and NOLF if they ever manage it.
Oh god the clippys are on discord too
this still goin strong
The numbers won't go down, it's up to other game votes to catch up
Ice Age Redux when
Soon™
Expect something by feburary 19th. I'm not finished with Far North... Yet.
Based.
See this is why we need remasters, then people like Ven can just ram their mods in the Workshop/mod menu.
Shin Carnivores look very interesting! I do wonder when such a big project could possibly release. Maybe a year?
Indeed, the modding community for this game is strong, nowadays the best way to play the original is carnivores legacy, but we still have issues with modern devices just not being able to play it sometimes or bugs and glitches that appear BC of it's age, it's a good game series, sad that tatem destroyed the franchise
I personally play mods to 100% and then add the best parts for my permanent mods bc Res_ files are easy to edit, I have modded mods lol
I started doing that BC I wanted iniqutyranus from carnivores plus on carnivores legacy, love that chonker
Facts
They will never lmao
The mobile port introduced the newer generations to this, your going against a third of all dinosaur enjoyers on earth
This game is literally older than me and I play on a daily basis
(I'm 19)
New dinos and new Dino behaviours are easy to put in game by the M.E.E (modders edition engine), but more than 8 weapons and maps are hard and I still haven't figured out how to properly fork this thing to play with my friends, a proper Lan based multiplayer and easier modding tools would be greatly appreciated alongside the visual improvements
I also would love the UI that the mobile version has instead of yellow text but that might be just me since it was my introduction to the franchise
I'd never put this game down if Nightdive got their talons on it and remastered it.
Sam, it's my fav and my brother doesn't give it a chance just because of the graphics, carnivores already has an audience the way it currently is, a remaster would be like what monster hunter world did to monster hunter, the world needs this
Native mod support would also make the community quite massive if the games were readily accessible and worked better on modern systems.
I love the Res_ system but yeah a Minecraft like mod system to put addons and mods would make it much faster
The only thing I'm concerned about is how porting the extant mods over might become a bit of a nightmare.
I'm not sure if it will be, but it is possible and if that's the case, I hope modders are willing to make the switch so this isn't DOA.
You know SMT that would be cool af ? Trophy room as a lethal company style lobby (BC of easier multiplayer and to showcase your catches to friends)
Ehhh depends on the tools
Tho remodeling gonna take long
Gonna take ages to have everything
I wish we could just switch trophy rooms from a few designs.
But the originals will still be there
Better than letting the community die out as time passes and the game stops being playable
We already can
You mean individual trophy rooms ?
Yeah that would be awesome
Or do you mean literally build em up prehistoric hunt style?
That would be so sick.
Indeed, also hope they can integrate the M.E.E into the base game
To start out already with complex flyers, pack hunters and aquatics
After years of M.E.E being safe on water just feels wrong
The sea becomes liminal, you feel like SMT is coming to eat you at any moment but never comes, phantom mosas lmao
I'm sure the legacy team would love that as well, would be cool the next generation of carnivores start out already with the cast of retrosaurs everybody always dreams of
If they could approach the modders it would be cool to :
Carnivores 1 = carnivores legacy
Carnivores 2 = carnivores 2 plus + mandibles redux + Triassic redux
Carnivores ice age = vanila + far north premium + boreal isles
City scape = vanilla + round up
And since I'm basically making a wishlist I would die of hype if the reworked gojirasaurus add-on and the calamity pack for carnivores plus also got implemented
But seeing them give this game justice would already be epic
This list is pretty cool, but to get them built in it'd take quite a few people from the modders to sign off on it.
I know, that's why I said if they could approach the modders
Ideal scenario here
Supposing everybody is cool with that
But the mee or at least it's features would be pretty hard to adapt to their absence, hope they can at least that
There is Triassic redux on mod dB, I recommend, it has the updated megalosaurus and liliensternus models, I love the new megalosaurus, it's just fitting as a primitive ruler from those primitive lands
It is rather funny considering that I made the most recent one.
NO WAY !!!!!
Bro literally went :
Thank you bruv, much appreciated this service to the community
🙂
Do not worry, however, as another release is on the way! I am just being slowed down by work, but I will do my best!
Glad to hear it, take care soldier 🫡
@violet lichen the other main Action Forms entry
also, the largest vote total in the request forum currently
Dinonerds really assembled like the Avengers here.
Oi. I'm here because AF games is something to be proud of as I'm Ukrainian.
Fun fact, BC the game is Ukrainian there are some species with name spelled in Ukrainian
ФО РІЛЗ?! (FOR REALS?!)
I NEED to see this!
Like brontoteri
I think
all mammals from ice age that would have had the -therium suffix would instead have -teriy
Yep, on ice age they rushed to publish on Christmas and BC of that the names are mostly on English then in some random places it's written wrong or in Ukrainian, some mods fix that but if you play ice age vanilla you'll get Ukraine jumpscare
I love them skins.
This exacly the level of alt trophy room I'd want honestly.
Full credit to Will
He did the addons and I made some tweaks to the trophy rooms slots
I'm loving that saur on the left too.
Its style of details are pretty much what I'd love to see in an 'updated' look for Carnivores while being able to switch back to classic.
The carcharodontosaurus' texture wasn't made by me
Is there any good tutorial videos on YouTube for how to do textures like this in Substance Painter?
Many
I suppose
(I also can't texture carnivores 😭)
😊
i'm not exactly making a mod since i have no interest at modding atm but i'm just making a classic Carnivores inspired model
Mosasaurus says hello
Here
i wonder if theres official concept art for the og games
Thanks
Looks like an intro for a carnivores series
i think i got it from one of the people who voted for this forum
heres what i've been making using those tutorials
it's starting to look wayyy better than my og model
Also when I was modelling I made it so the head shape makes the eyes face forward like an actual tyrannosaur
does anyone here know how big and how close the legs should be to the body? if so please draw/edit over the legs in these images to show me how it should look
Does any experts here know what the rig looks like for the C2 ceratosaurus? Because I wanna know what the rig for the eyelids look like so I know how i can animate my rex model blinking
Carnivores: Dinosaur Hunter game for iPhone and iPod Touch. Extremely dangerous hunting experience starts today/ Already in App Store: http://bit.ly/9jCqYF
More info on www.tatemgames.com
If anyone is confused the ceratosaurus does blink and is more noticeable at the time stamp➡️ 0:48 to 0:55 in this video
Yooo , thanks !
Awesome
I think I sort of figured it out?
do you guys think this image uses an actual model that the creepypasta writer made or is it a photoshop edit of the yeti?
also someone on reddit belives that this hypo colossus inspired it
The pose and the proportions aren't the same as the yeti so I really think he only made a model from zero just to take the photo xd
Do you think it has legs or did he just make the torso?
Probably since it came Frist and they look similar
Including the white chest
Also I figured out how to animate the blinking using shape keys
I learned to make trophy poses!
Fun Fact: You're totally able to exit the alt+tab freeze ingame. Simply enable the ability to end tasks from the task bar.
Go in systems, then developper's settings, then enable the feature
does anyone here have a good stegosaurus skeleton diagram with all angles i could use for 3D modeling?
like the kind with black outlines for the body shape
mostly asking because alot of the ones i'm finding on google are only side views
Depends what you search
So you look for a 3D model to base upon?
Imma look for you real quick
Thankies
Kinda like this, but with the skeleton?
Or you could look on https://sketchfab.com/, @viral loom
You can still use them as references
Ik
I'll check
Just sometimes sketchfab has posed models that don't have the option to put in default mesh pose
Oh okay
Which imo should be mandatory just in case others wanna use as reference
Iirc I was looking at rex models but they didn't have the t-pose option
Oh alright
I didn't understand at first but now I get it
I'm quite impatient to see your next models!
Cool!
If you need some trophy poses, halloween vacations started, so I'll be available!
Not exactly interested in modding but thanks for the offer
Ok sorry
i lowkey want a vivisector beast within remaster also
despite never playing the game
action forms also made that
games from europe always go hard
Vivisector was a fun-ass game. They also made Cryostasis, which is another diamond in the rough
I think you could make a channel for it
In this video I try to explain the nearly 3 decade spanning lore of the Carnivores, both official and fan made.

When did we got news of Legacy last time?
In today’s video I’ll go over new & old information about Carnivores Legends and also showcase the new dinosaur model that was released!!

it's for a roblox carnivores project
Kinda disappointed it's not a proper thing
Because it definitely should be
especially since i personally don't want to have to log into my roblox account just to play a Carnivores project that should be it's own thing
gotta somehow skirt by those cease and desists somehow
Ig but it's not like the company is doing anything with the ip atm
doesn't stop them from throwing them out when they can
it has happened before from them too
Dam
def a custom model, probs made to advertize the mod but made it a fun spooky creepypasta, I like the ghoul though I think its weird its intended to be in the first map of the game
same
sadly
makes me so sad that thiss happens, we have literal thousands of people who want and would do smt cool with it
I wonder, how is Carnivores so popular in the western countries?
probably got more popular because of the mobile port
doubt most really knew about carnivores prior
mobile port + youtube
it's a pipeline, you start with that and you end up addicted to carnivores 2 mods saurian target showed ya
Realistically, how is nightdive going to acquire rights from tatem?
im wondering
Action forms and subsequently Tatem are based in ukraine
and as best as i’ll try to not get political
the war is severely impacting the franchise
It can go 2 ways:
-Discuss like grown ups and conclude a deal
-Django mode
I would like to know more about this django mode
who is django if they’re a person
More like a group
The OG Action Froms devs of the very first game
didnt all of action forms move to tatem
both are ukranian studios
Them rights be passed on sum Jojo Bizarre Adventures typa shii
Actions Forms => Tatem = > Sunstorm (Infogrames the forbidden one) => Digital "Sits on your license and do nothing" Dreams
infogrames is a publisher not a developer
Hence why it put it in between ()
It doesn't lower its infamousness still
At the time, Infogrames was kinda like EA
The only thing I dread is someone at Tatem still coping about the Carnivores PC port actually becoming a thing and therefore telling Nightdive no tbh.
Especially since it's been a decade plus with diddly, daddly, fiddly fuck all from their end.
Let's say that they are reasons they cut ties.
Sunstorm is dead unlike tatem
Also the mobile ports were made after cityscape
oh wait how are you listing this again?
First 2 issues were made by action forms
Then Ice Age was made by Tatem
Then the rights went to sunstorm
And AFTER they returned to tatem
I shoul've added them in the middle
ice age was still by action forms
they became tatem sometime after cityscape
or really post-cryostasis
Ok, I understand where the mistake came from
I typed "what studio made carnivores Ice age"
And it showed me Tatem
But it's bc they PORTED the game in 2011
So tatem is between sunstorm and Digital Dreams
if it was an ai answer then yea stop believing ai as the concrete answer
it probably said tatem because ice age is on mobile
💔
I lowered my guard for a second🥀
(against ai, not u)
t gênant wlh
mdrr ftg
Frank Welker and Crocodilian made these sounds. The roar was created from trumpeting of elephants during the mating season.
Anyone ever added Rudy's sounds to a creature?
Fellas, fav carnivores Dino ? Vanilla or modded
Stethacanthus
in fact, I have seen that those games in the play store are currently exclusive games for mobile phones
You can run them on PC with the Play Store, but it would be a hell to make settings for
in fact, Chromebooks have support with the Playstore but I don't think anyone has the money to buy a Chromebook so either it's a cell phone or it's a Chromebook
Fun fact: Casual PCs (like dell, HP or Lenovo) can also download it from Google website
if you get the Google Play Games app beta you can run mobile games on your PC, some made run on it almost perfectly but others not so much
so if it requires more than just clicking you're in for a rough time if you just have a keyboard and mouse
unless you have a tactile screen
once you're past the point of downloading the google play app and Carnivores on the store, you're genuinely gonna have fun
any updates on carnivores getting a remaster yet?
No
Buuut
We have Legac-
Nope
November 30th be like:
It was never promised for November 30th
YOOOO-
New legacy update (real no fake)
Somebody removed their vote
i occasionally remove votes from users that have deleted discord profiles
Does it shows the deleted users, or you looking through the list?..
discord changes the name of the user to deleted_user_bunchanumbers
I know, but there are a lot of people who voted. I don’t think it’s taking less than a minite
Anyways, a little off topic right now
I wonder what Nightdive team does after their vacations
You know I only just realized now that this thread isn't for Dino Crisis lmaoo
I'd never heard of this series before and am only vaguely familiar with Dino Crisis so I just assumed this was that based on the vote count, dino stuff and the titles both having C words with similar consonant sounds I guess
I'm really not very stoked on survival horror games so I kinda brushed this one off because of that lol but actually these look kinda sweet
Interesting and pretty disappointing that the only game that's available is this one from 2022, Carnivores: Dinosaur Hunt, though. I wonder what the situation is with the original ones.
Thank God I read about this fucking insane screaming glitch before I tried this out too
I think I figured out how to make that not happen but like Jesus Christ if I didn't know about that
Lmaoooo nevermind
Yutyranus moment
TRI Atlantian.
legacy got an update
dats crazy
why ?
So, is it possible to actually play mods on your samsung or android now, I've been seeing a lot of Carnivores mobile videos with mods
How is this game so popular here? Never heard of it. Looks fun to play though, don’t get me wrong! Just surprised, that’s all.
I have the same question.
How is this Ukrainian games are so popular? Most of Ukrainian games are unknown, because they were distributed mostly among the CIS countries.
I guess someone made a video about this in youtube, and told people to vote on it in ND server
It's because a concerted effort by their fan community to highlight this game happened about a year ago. They saw how well the Turok games were being kept and how this series is kind of in rights hell, so they made their voices heard here.
Same with Metal Arms
Also same with Machines: Wired for War, although Nightdive was already involved with publishing that one and the community effort in question seemed to be much smaller, either due to a smaller community or a more modest attempt
An announce on the main discord modding server jumpstarted this
Though I wonder what Nightdive's up to
But how does it get some popular? Everyone knows it just because of modding?
Kinda
Triassic has a story+gameplay infinitively better than any official game rn
And when you check the newest/incoming mods? Ooh boi
The developer of this games is defunct. I afraid the right holder is SNEG
Oh oke
But I think I wouldn't be so popular without saurian target
I just find out. The publisher is WizardWorks. They were owned by Atari and defunct in 2004
It sucks that the license ended like that
That mean Atari should have the rights for the game
And that the ONLY REMNANT of that legacy is a P2W mobile game and an ASS game
Chasm: The rift was also published by Atari. I have no idea why sneg re-released it
There's theories that some of the creatures in Chasm are actually the ancients from Carnivores
Im fairly certain that Tatem owns the rights still.
The mobile port plus the old trilogy are cult classics, you start by playing the mobile then you become an advanced hunter hunting more exotic prey by playing the pc mods, with the morders engine any Prehistoric lost world you can imagine is possible
Yeah, they still making dlc for dinosaur hunt tho the quality of dinosaur hunt is atrocious, if you really want the real dinosaur hunting safari experience you go to mod db and download the newest mods for free
This game is older than me (I'm 19 years old) and means mutch to me, I played every day when I was in school and still play here in university when I have the time
I mean the mobile port has some QoL stuff I wish we could of had as a rerelease, but I do understand the monetary value of it being mobile.
But I was mostly just explaining the misunderstanding of who was the rights holder since last I check was Tatem
Can't say the same, I am older then the game, I am one of the few played it before it was cool/s
In reality I played the game when I was much younger, on and off again over the years and only found out about the mod scene less then a decade ago.
To give an idea, I played it on its recommended OS for windows at the time of release.
That's cool af gramps ( jk )
I do, It's cool to see a veteran that could see this legend of a game being born
Can't imagine how was living that
Grew up with the big dino based media of the time, turok, carnivores, dino crisis. Had jurassic park on VHS and remember seeing Lost world and 3 in theater.
My grandma had dvds of the frist 3 jurassic park movies and that's how I got to watch em
My frist exposure of dino media was a walking with dinosaurs avm on youtube when I was 6 yo
I asked my father what dinosaurs ate and he told me to search about it myself and then I never stopped looking into paleomedia
This account is very cool to hear and thease times are called the dino mania nowadays
What's your opinion on the update? Or have you not played it yet?
Their porting mandibles, triassic and fallen kings to mobile, so far only the dinos but recently there has beeen a breakthrough on mapping for mobile
big al my beloved
Honestly? It was neat
Nothing extraordinary, aside from new content, anim revamps, and- wait how come I can play on dawn maps for more than 5 minutes
It's the Jurassic Park baby crib scene all over again
agreed
Roadrunners do somewhat have similar patterns to cassowary and emu chicks
pure coincidence
they also look like a raptor
I mean they're dinosaurs
more than your arvarge avian
Add a tail and arms and ratites are dinos fr
Apparently this was an earlier design for the boxart rex according to enzobayala on Deviantart?
Crazy
Skinny birb
Dinosaur chicky nuggy

i wonder how is tatem doing in 2026
granted the war is probably still raging but still im wondering
They do have a few offices outside Ukraine iIrc
I remember someone in this chat mentioning that last year
Why are you censoring Ukraine my dude?
That’s a good question
just in case, idk if anyone would get stressed or something because idk if certain things need to be spoilered because of certain topics
I think you make it worse when cover it with spoiler. Carnivores itself made by Ukrainians. It isn’t right
i can remove the spoiler
I know it was already gone, but any excuse to use this GIF is one I'll take.
Fair Ig
The usage you've done in the context here is perfectly fine.
An example of about where I'd want to draw the line would be how much grace I gave the dude that made the Chasm: the Rift entry, where I allowed him to state his feelings about the war and its impact on Chasm and a couple of additional series.
I didn't intervene because it didn't cross the line of being inappropriate in terms of being not allowed on the server, even if it was overbearing in the way that Grizelda called out very eloquently.
Carnis was made by both Russians and Ukrainians IIRC
Might be wrong tho
Action forms is a ukranian studio
Russian 1C was a publisher for most of their games
Maybe there was russians in the studio

Does anyone know the origin of the roar used for the rex? As I hear it used in things like Dino Fight Club and as an alarm in the first new Dune film
@unique ridge thread already exists, deleting your duplicate post
Oh my bad! Sorry!
No worries, at least it has the most votes out of any submission
indeed
I saw the ping message for a brief moment, i have moderator privileges and already deleted the duped thread
Tread of what ?
Let's goooooooooo
I have no idea but all carnivores noises are stock now so dosent surprise me
I hope if they remaster this, they add options to turn on and off remastered graphics so people can experience the og look.
Yeah it's definitely one of those things that would be necessary, alongside modding support.
definitely!
has there been any word as to whether or not they are remastering these games?
I'm sure this one is of interest to Nightdive after such a concerted community effort. But even so it could still take some time and they're not in the habit of making premature announcements.
Might take months to years still, depending on which projects get greenlit first, and whether Tatem wants to play ball with them at all.
Yeah, we wouldn't want a GTA six situation.
i do recall bringing the topic up to Stephen before and that he has talked with the guys at Tatem a while back, but this was years ago
so them knowing each other atleast is a good sign
oh yeah
@grim lotus
Let's goooooooooo
Oh that seems like an interesting prospect then.
Oh holy shit it's almost been three years since I posted this?!
Waiting to see what Kid is typing
Ideas I have for the remasters. Call sound wave icons: when a dinosaur responds to a call or makes a mating call, an icon will appear that looks like sound waves that pinpoint where the sound came from, can be turned on or off in options. Reloads: make it to where you can reload on a partially empty magazine, an improvement over the original as you need to completely empty your mags before reloading, an issue when you have one shot in the chamber and a predator is charging towards you. Customizable camo clothing: When going into different environments, you need to have the appropriate camo color to match the environment. Wearing desert camo will decrease your visibility on desert terrain, but will increase your visibility in jungle environments for example. Ammo types: for certain firearms, you can choose what ammo type you can use for them. Blunt rounds are useful for higher damage but suck at long range, high projectile rounds are great for long range hunting, but are weaker and you need to take more time to hit a mortal zone. There are more ideas I have and I will post them as I think of more.
outside of the reload mechanic many of these feel more appropriate for a new entry/remake rather than a remaster
I see what you mean, I will try to think of ideas that are more remaster friendly.
I would like to see how my camo idea would work tho...
If not then make it to where the hunters camo automatically changes color for that environmant.
I also think that whatever they do with the remaster, they need to make it to where we can turn on and off remastered setting so people can experience the game as it originally was if they want to.
that's not typically how Nightdive has made their remasters. typically it's been two executables on pc, one (when the publisher allows it) the original warts and all and the other shiny and new
hexen + heretic is a good example there
They should start doing that with other remasters like they did halo 2 anniversary.
that might not be possible with how Kex works as a framework of an engine. I don't know enough to speak confidently on it. I certainly like that as a feature, I just don't see it in any games Nightdive has done, so I assume it's a limitation
I wasn't aware of how their engine works. You may be right.
thanks legorocket for reminding me this exists
looks like carnivores still reigns supreme here
Love to see it!
never underestimate the power of a community of an old dino hunting game series
Nice to see we are almost at 700 votes
Lets get this to a thousand votes!!!
cant argue with that
Here we go again
700th here
Thank you sir!
Number one? really?
Urah!
Would also love Jurassic Park Operation Genesis getting some love
Congrats on 700
Would be cool if we were the first to reach 1,000
Lets make it happen!
lmao
Kinda missed those
Wtf did I just watch? lol
YAAAA-
704!!!
If my legacy to gaming is getting Carnivores remastered, it will have been worth it.
May your wish be granted!
300 for the thousand
We cannot be overlooked no longer, we gonna have allo arms tonight hunters !!!
we be peak
Would y'all prefer a simple port or a straight up remaster?
Cuz like
If they did the same thing as they did for doom
And made something like Carnivores + Carnivores 2
With ice age too ofc
With modern controls, Vulkan rendering, support for modern resolutions and aspect-ratios, better settings and some more qol improvements
Add Steam Workshop support and you're set
Fallen Kings, Triassic, Mandibles
All ported over within the week
And no license or weapon limit
I don't think I could complain
I wanna hear y'alls thoughts
A remaster would work best honestly.
This is about my idea of it.
This is the 'full' list aside from the community-made doc.
I just want a remaster of the og's too cause mods are doing good on their own.
Modding is a priority one thing tbh.
This is a wishlist other people made.
Getting Ornithomimid1 on board for collab work would be the best case scenario in my opinion, considering that M.E.E. is pretty much the definitive Carnivores engine at the time.
It would be cool of they did remastered editions of Carnivores 1, 2, and Ice Age, and a steam and console port of the mobile games as like a "Ultimate Prehistoric Big Game Hunt Bundle". Even if it was just the og games, I would still be grateful.
carnivores modding has been a staple part of the game for decades
carnivores getting a more versatile and powerful engine to mod it would be huge
since even with the more complex engines like the mee
bugs are still a huge part of those since theyre built off a game engine pushing 30
Should the different animals from C1, C2, C3 and cityscape appear?
Wdym?
honestly best case scenario
is if they remake the quadrilogy
and make the games easier to mod
the problem with it being a quadrilogy is cityscape being the biggest outlier as it's not even in the same relevant engine. not to mention there's virtually no documentation, knowledge or attempts when it comes to modding cityscape.
sticking with the original trilogy would be easier since minimal changes are made between the entries that can be placed into a singular engine with each entry having their tweaks be present (or absent) in order to match their releases without needing to just have the engine copied 3 times
Cityscape would be better as its own remaster and later sold in a bundle with 1-Ice Age Remastered
definitely
yeah cityscape is massively different
so this is a good suggestion
It doesn't even exist, it's not Canon

It's another continuity
Should the newcomers from the mobile games appear too?
Maybe?
I would accept that if they get redsigned like legacy to fit the world
Or maybe even do em like legacy extra huntables, you don't select em but they appear as a rare spawn with a different color on the map
Would be cool if armargasaurus had blues to reference the carnivores plus amarga
And carnotaurus have a charge mechanic where you can dodge it like a bull, maybe troodon could be smart and stalk the player instead of go head on like other carnivorous dinosaurs
Dilo would be cinema
Also dinos like Utah and troodon could be nocturnal to give more reason to hunt at night, also a flashlight and actual darkness would be welcome
Utah could have echolocation to diferentiate from the raptors and since coelophisis pack hunts the raptors should too if mobile dinos are coming
Teleportation on observer mode could be another neat feature from mobile
Gigantoraptor is rex sized so it should be the rarest and only spawn at dusk, to make it the true center piece of the colection it could have decorative particles of some kind, also would be ironic if oviraptor was the most common extra huntable to reflect the least common one
Being basically like allosaurus but smaller, noisier, more shy, easier to kill but a bit faster to compensate
Giganto could have a peacock like a appearance while ovi have a chiken like appearance
Maybe males being solitary and females wandering in trios or duos
Edmonto could walk in small herds but having a migration mechanic where they wander to somewhere like a lake or a clearing to stay a few minutes than walk trough the map to the next specific spot
Legacy has sleeping dinos and diferent growth stages for the rexes so would be cool to have a chance to see juveniles amongst the heard and if you kill em you agro the parents but not nessesarly the entire heard plus the alpha member that controls the direction of the heard could be more agressive
Coelophisis could also get bolder the more members their pack has with lone dispersing coelophisis being shy and generally harmless, 5 - 9 being more cautious but still dangerous if provoked or scared, 10 - 15 arvarge levels of aggression, 16 - 30 being extremely agressive without any fear and beyond 30 being extremely rare with individuals twards the larger sizes of their size range
Since those would expand the roster massively I think they could come in updates or in a possible dlc instead of release day
If dlc they could have an albino and melanistic update to come with it, showcasing to modders what the extra huntables system can do
Have it named like "exotic expedition" adding an extra map, the mobile exclusives remastered plus some maps exclusives for every map, future dlc having their extra huntables from their maps coming with the dlc
Ofc the new map will just have 1 exclusive map ambient hubtable bc the dino roster of the dlc will be the extra huntables coming to the base game maps and to the extra huntables pool
Kinda like dredge
And then you could have so the frist release is on pc, have the dlc and mod support then make a definitive edition for consoles and mobile with the console editions also having a premium mods dlc like ark for those on console enjoy the best mods the comunity makes with the modding suport
Getting permission from modders ofc
Hm yeah they could do what they did with Doom where they added a new expansion called Legacy of Rust
Would be a neat idea
Concavenator on top
no it’s the same canon, just a tie-in rather than mainline continuity
Legacy carno should be red like velos are like the jp ones
Definitely Triassic and Fallen Kings.
Far North too, because I just can't pick one lol
Legacy, Fallen King and Dangergrounds (My first played mod)
Legacy
Mandibles, since it has an interesting concept
What's your thoughts so far on the silksong mod ?
There's a silksong mod?
Good one
Who do we play? Hornet?
No, we hunt hornet as allosaurus, it's in development
Have you heard of this ?
It's made by seekers
She is finishing the huntables to work on the player dinosaur and weapons, after that she gonna do the maps then release, at least as far as I understand
She also posted vudeos of the creatures on vanilla maps
It's on her yt
Nahhh get outta here that's fuckin' cool.
Indeed, I'm hyped for it's release
Me when 11.5K messages.
I'm quite sad for Dynastes. Last Dream was a project Dynastes loved to work on. I didn't knew he had a fragile sanity. I hope he's alright.
Does he know?
@cyan idol
a stalker? in the saga?
Yup
doesnt really change much
Do you even know the background me and Dynastes had?
close friends?
Yup
never knew
He EVEN posted shit on a private server I had 2 years prior
Before I delete it out of shame
We weren't the best of friends
But we'd help each other and support one another
glad you two had that going for eachother
Interesting
So I authorized myself to add that comment in support for him
As for the whole "World Tour" situation, well, world tour is dead now
Unfinished
we know
What's still in production if there even is anything?
Nothing still in production
I'm making stuff for myself now
lmao no
I now understand that I don't need to release ANYTHING I do
?
Whut do ya mean ? I don't get it
Mainly MEE ports of various mods
Far North was just a year long late promise
Yeah but it's kinda too late now, we have an oficial version
You mean far noth mee V2 ?
Ye we have that now
I'm the uploader
let's goooooooooo
OH, BEFORE I FORGET
Bonne lecture
Banned from what ?
The saga server ?
Indeed
You seem like a chill dude, I couldn't imagine this
i dont hate you but bro you lowkey dont have the best rep
im giving you a chance
Well, try to put yourself in Dawn's clothes
With a little mf that asks genuinely ASS questions about something you don't want to talk about
Or Nocdes
When I was just trying to make a mystery out of thin air
Should this be handled in DMs? I don't know the story involved here, but it feels like it can get messy quickly if it remains public like this
To be fair, I was counting on GMR and Curious Cancer to share my convo and stuff
My dms are open for ya venator uf you want to speak to me about this later
I have to go now
But I guess they didn't wanted to get involved w me too much
I get it
Bro was just explaining himself, no fights here, but I understand the precaution
yeah
Yeah, didn't feel like a fight, but more like a tinder box that could ignite.
i get it
To be fair I haven't read it yet, no idea how serious is this drama, venator just seems like a chill dude
Indeed
Fav carnivores mobile dino fellas ?
I have good memories hunting mobile amarga
Tho I have to admit C2+ amarga was better
anyways
the mobile ports couldve been more
mobile modding was a huge hurdle
Agreed 100%
Imagine if carnivores mobile had modding suport like bedrock
shouldve been that way
I would like to have that on my godot carnivores recreation but I can't so I'm just puting maps and creatures on their respective pastes so to add smt just throw there
We need 5 bilion lobsters
We need 300 voters
We should make that easily if more people from Saga joined and voted tbh.
and how do we make that happen ?
anounnce there again ?
i mean, you guys just did a numbers drive to get to 700. it's probably a good idea to treat it as a cool down period, if only to not breed resentment from those that don't wish to participate
Yeah if we spam, if we do a second call to action closer to the finish line we could get more votes from our comunity
I say the more voters, the merrier.
ya
sorry to bother you @thorny reef but could I send a (safe) link here?
What type of link?
I wouldn't want that type of link here. A bit too raw
It's more that the file is raw and vague. I don't know if it's piracy or malicious code or just a picture. I assume it's a game mod, and there are numerous sites for that
It's a port of a mod on a newer engine, to be fair
probably not the best idea
Lobster
Maybe a movie?
I had an outift once
hold on
hunter outfit
I see "1 update" on moddb, and I'm quite exited, see
What the heck is that
Spooky.
hey man what have we told you 3 times before about uploading files? Sorry it took us 2 weeks to catch but I have to escalate this to a warning
Also Ik I posted these already as a link but It would be awesome if a fan or official remake had designs like this
Because these feel alien af
It's almost scary. I like it.
Peak
Dragon quest aah
?
Old magazine advertisement
According to someone who translated the text the dragon on the bottom right was gonna be for another game they were working on that never came into fruition
What's that creature ?
I'm reading it now and maybe the game was gonna be called 'SPELLCASTER'?
Either way, I'm kinda disappointed it never came to be
the image is no longer there, what was it?
some image link
triceratops being shot at with rifle
btw
u guys from here know about the new carnivores CE ?
it's a multiplayer carnivores fan engine
the dowload link is in the carnivores saga discord server
and many mods have alredy been ported to it
My attempt to travel from one end of a dangerous map to another in a play test of the latest build of CE.
Built-in mod library with support for full conversions.
just a casually predatory psittacosaurus
guess where that pistacho comes from ?
ya
Yo if this multiplayer project gets done well enough, maybe we should look into integrating it into the potential remaster.
Through Workshop mods etc.
It's currently in open development but I've participated in some hunting contests and was really fun
It's glitchy and some mods still need a bit of polishing to be ported well but it's cinema, gonna be the new standard in the future for sure
It also allows you to have multiple mods in one game and divides the trophy rooms between mods and allows you to store and place trophys
Also
The maps are bigger and you can see em primal prey style
You can fit a entire carnivores mod in 1 map of ce
I like iniqutyranus
Cryolophosaurus is my fave
Cordelia's Peak
That it is.
Carnotaurus for me
Deinosuchus/Oxalaia and Purusaurus for live
I like santuary dilo
Cmon nightdive! Please announce that you’re working on this! I NEED THIS REMASTERED TRILOGY IN MY LIFE! Ps I love you guys for preserving old forgotten gaming gems, keep it up. 🙂
yeeeeesssssss!
Kino.

What additional features would you like on the remaster ?
DLSS 5! Jk nothing crazy really just a remastered trilogy all in one pack with workshop support. Obviously modern resolution support, higher resolution textures, lighting, draw distance and LOD improvements. Bunch of little stuff but nothing too major as I want them to preserve the original look and feel of the games.
Would you think the mee features would be reasonable ? Like aquatic ai n stuff
I wouldn’t mind the addition of aquatic animals as it would make the game world feel more alive and possibly more species to hunt. There should be an og version or mode without new content additions where the games are as they were in the 90s. I’m torn between wanting more/new content while also wanting to preserve them as they were lol
I think smt like modders engine standalone would be a good middle ground, adding enough for mods to expand upoon and the world feel more alive but leaving the core game untouched
On modders there are 2 new ambient fish, icthyornis to showcase creatures going from land to sky to water, and the dangerous mosasaurus to showcase dangerous water ai
It also adds triceratops from C1 to C2 as an extra huntable to showcase that feature and sexual dymorphism on cerato to showcase that aswell
And packhunting for velos and couples fir para to showcase that aswell
If we adding new content then i would probably expect the mobile c2 exclusive dinosaurs to come to C2, but that would be a bonus not a nessesary, having the me features on a modern title would be alredy enough reason to buy the title
Also if we adding new content based on the current modding scene... CE has multiplayer, carnivores multiplayer has everything to be the next lethal company
Imagine hunting dinosaurs but with friends
Wait that would be awesome
The big issues with current carnivores multiplayer is that you need to dox yourself to host by using ip and that you need to chose between the MEE features and CE since only CE engine has multiplayer but CE lacks most MEE features with aquatic ai being a recent addition, give carnivores a proper oficial functional multiplayer and it will explode
We had multiplayer oficially before but was on cityscape the game that singlehandedly killed the franchise
The issue with cityscape is that it tried to be doom, a proper multiplayer dinosaur hunting game will be fire af
If it happens ofc
https://peerj.com/articles/20794/ New Muttaburrasaurus paper
The holotype of Muttaburrasaurus langdoni Bartholomai & Molnar, 1981, a large-bodied ornithopod from the mid-Cretaceous of Australia, consists of an almost complete skull and partial postcranium, and is among the most skeletally complete ornithopods from Gondwana. The taxon was defined by a dorsally inflated muzzle, thought to be formed by the n...
Mutaburasaurus update
Almost 720.
?
The vote
- the muttaburrasaurus holotype and type species, m. langdoni, is from the mid cenomanian and not the albian as previously believed. the genus as a whole extended from the upper albian to mid cenomanian
- muttaburrasaurus has a strange mix of plesiomorphic, convergent and unique morphological features for an ornithopod. it retained five well-developed premaxillary teeth despite these typically being absent in derived ornithopods, suggesting it most likely diverged outside iguanodontia entirely. although its taxonomy remains enigmatic for now, there's a very good possibility it represents a previously unrecognised cryptic lineage of basal gondwanan ornithopods. definitely doesn't seem to be related to rhabdodonts in any case
- the guy was huge. 8 to 9 tonnes huge
- all currently known muttaburrasaurus specimens inhabited the coastal plains along the eromanga sea, and there's a feature in the snout that may hint towards the possession of a nasal salt gland used to remove excess salt they ingested along with their food. in terms of diet, it seems to have been a selective browser that would have been able to feed on all kinds of fibrous coastal vegetation, and potentially also invertebrates like crustaceans
- the shape of the semicircular canals suggest that muttaburrasaurus was facultatively bipedal, usually walking upright but using quadrupedal locomotion for slower speed activities like browsing
Thanks
We have a dedicated channel for this #naturalistic-studies . This thread should stay on topic for the games
Oh sorry
I didn't know
Won't happen again
Not sure who to ask but the user bp_richfield needs to be removed from this server as credible accusations have arrisen of her being a pedophile
@thorny reef
standby, we're getting a briefing on the situation
Same with the alt Effervescent Elody (elinfinityy 1492372096339280004) (Not sure if its in here)
That alt account isn't even in this server
Still reviewing the information but as far as we currently know this is just an accusation and they have zero activity in this server beyond upvoting carnivores. Personally I would give you a warning too for bringing in outside drama but i guess we don't have a server rule specifically regarding that.
In any case everyone should please be careful as to who they dm
Understood, thanks for the update
Removed just in case since at best the account is just inactive
