Australo-Sucho

Description
Mod ID: 1098166384. Adds 2 new dinos to ARK: Australovenator and Suchomimus. Includes Kibble and Saddle Recipes (Kibble available on Engrams menu immediately, Australovenator Saddle available at Level 19, Suchomimus Saddle available at Level 71, Suchomimus Saddle requires Smithy to craft).

In order to make these a little more unique and not just complete knockoffs of the original models, they've been created as 3-way hybrids of existing dinos. These were originally intended to be exclusive to a custom map I was creating, but I lost some of the map files and got delayed. When I noticed that ARK was leaving early access, I decided to create a new mod and upload it to the Workshop for others to use rather than keep them just to myself.

AUSTRALOVENATOR: "Southern Hunter"
An Allosauroid found in Australia during the Cretaceous. Described as the "cheetah of its time", Australovenator combines elements of the Raptor, Allosaurus and Gallimimus. It retains the attacks and pack bonus of the Allosaurus but comes in a smaller form, so its melee damage has been reduced. Melee damage has been scaled to fall in between the Raptor and the Allosaurus. It has also been given the base run speed modifier of the Gallimimus. It is faster than other carnivores of its size, but not quite as fast as the Gallimimus. Spawn rates for a full pack of three have been reduced in comparison to the Allosaurus. With a saddle available at the same level as the Raptor, it makes a good starter mount for survivors if you can survive the hunt. Suchomimus Egg Kibble gives an extra affinity bonus when taming.

Level 1 Wild Stats:
Health: 330
Stamina: 230
Oxygen: 150
Food: 1700
Weight: 260
Melee Damage: 25/15
Torpor: 530
Walking Speed: 740
Swimming Speed: 400

SUCHOMIMUS: "Crocodile Mimic"
A Spinosaurid found in Niger during the Cretaceous. Closely related to Baryonyx and standing slightly taller than the Spinosaurus, Suchomimus combines elements of the Baryonyx, Spinosaurus and Rex. It retains the attacks and pescavore bonus of the Baryonyx, giving it a powerful underwater stun with the attack radius of the Spino. Damage is scaled in between the Baryonyx and Spino, but Suchomimus builds on the Baryonyx skill set and gets an exclusive bonus to damage against Mantas, Anglers, Megalodons and Leedsicthys (in addition to Coelecanths, Salmon and Piranhas). Like the Spino and Rex, Suchomimus is large enough to cause step damage against smaller enemies. Suchomimus was designed as "King of the Swamps", pushing aside the Sarcosuchus and filling the vacant large carnivore niche of the swamplands. Like the Rex, it is highly aggressive and will attack anything in its path with the exception of other large dinos. The weakness of the Suchomimus is its clumsy nature on land. Suchomimus is designed as a direct attacker and has trouble attacking smaller targets that are fast enough to keep just ahead of its jaws. The Suchomimus can easily fall victim to a pack of protective Dimorphodons if it initiates an attack against a lone individual, which keeps the swamp biome balanced. Keep this in mind if using it as a mount. It serves much better as an amphibious mount than a land mount, although it can hold its own against most of the game's other carnivores. Australovenator Egg Kibble gives an extra affinity bonus when taming.

Level 1 Wild Stats:

Stamina: 365
Oxygen: N/A
Food: 2680
Weight: 390
Melee Damage: 50/40
Torpor: 930

This was my first and only shared ARK mod, so some of the dino physics are not optimal. Since my mod was last published in 2017, there have since been other mods developed by other mod authors that include Australovenator and Suchomimus. Since these other mods have been compiled by a team, they have had more liberty to delegate design aspects to people with talent. I would recommend using these other mods instead. If you like (or hate) my mod, please rate it so that players seeking additional dino content can find this mod more easily.

Works on Rag and Crystal Isles can confirm. But there is NO SUCHO SADDLE. You have to spawn it which i did not want to do since we try to keep admin usage out of the game. But no way around getting the saddle. Tried a Baryonyx saddle but does not fit. I do wish there was more time put into the detail to make these creatures look different and not just larger/smaller versions of the bary and allo. Also riding the SUCHO is very hard to see. Its back and camera angle view is so messed up that you can't see much when riding them.

I love how you include descriptions on the behavior of your renditions of the dinos to make them feel like they really can be part of the rather messy at times food chain of Ark. I can't wait to see this new map, it feels like we haven't gotten something very suited to Ark in a long time. Ragnarok can be as beautiful as it is, but it feels like the terrain makes any dino incapable of jumping/climbing or flying gets left out in favor of ones that do.

The map isn't in the workshop yet, since about half of the zones still need to be populated and filled with resources.
