what and saddles?

how is it going?

Can you give us spawn codes

@spunky yeah i had high hopes for the mod, im in the process of building a new computer which *Should* will have the power to mod without taking several hours to load the modding program up. After i do some testing and what not if it seems like it can handle it this is one of my mods that i will remake and update.

its coooooooooooool

ok

@Nag ~ this isnt being updated, and the dinos were not ment to be ridden.

saddles??

Ini configurable level multiplier and difficulty as well as tame yes/no (for those that want, I would not want them to be tameable for our server) would be great options to have.

I'd set them nice and high level and super hard like mini bosses in order to get the element as a reward, they should not be easy.

Would also be good if you gave them their own dino tag reference so that their spawn weight and multipliers can be adjusted in addition to or separate from the current in game alphas.

Thanks for your consideration.

Would be interesting as a concept. Once j get a new video card or system built and get time to play more I'll try to remember it.

@igneli if you could, I would love to see it an .ini option to make them tamable or not, lots of people get excited when they see them and want to tame them...just a thought
maybe you could go 1 step further and have them make an amount of element per day, so people could catch them and feed them electronic chip and metal or something and then poop out element lol

sorry for the late reply ive been without a pc for a few months. video card problems. not sure when ill be back or have time to update.

@dee272, The dinos were not ment to be tamed, and i was working on a new version of this mod before my pc died which made them stronger, and untameable.

@^bdc, yes, it was initially a bug. i went back and forth about what i planned on doing with the mod to fix it, i added it to all drop tables but the chance was only happening for raptor carno etc. i debated putting it as a harvest from eatting the corpse instead. but i forget what i did in the end. if you want i would give the 2.0 beta version a try and see if it is more to your liking.

the 2.0 beta mod will replace this one if i can get back to working on it eventually. where some become essentially mini bosses etc and reward everyone in the area with rewards of element for helping kill it. but this is down the line as IRL has not been too kind to me as of late.

Howdy Igneli, thank you for your work. I have a question: Do all of the elemental upgraded creatures contain element as loot 100% of the time? I've had some spawn with none.

@igneli can you make it so when they tame these dinos, the can ride them. so far i can tame the raptor and it would be cool to ride around on it

Breeders PVE,XP(5),G(40),T(20), S+, classic flyers... is running this mod please come check it out, we are a fun server all helping each other out

Love the idea - I've always wanted alphas, gigas and titans to drop element, would explain the alphas and give the gigas and titans some point in PvE.

Also yes, the mosa, squid, and death worm didn't work too well, i think i can have them fixed in the next version.

@Eliaz i agree, i will be doing some testing on it. one of my bigger issues was not getting dinos to drop element every time. making an already difficult search for them (they have the same spawn chance of an alpha) a little more difficult when there is no other source of element on the server. depending on the map your playing ofcourse.

The difficulty will be ramped up tremendously, i have a few ideas of making it a bit more interesting as well. But if i can get the dinos to give element 100% of the time it will not be an issue to do a flat ammount of element. if i cannot get that method to work, harvesting with modified values might be the best way around it. but again,

it will take some testing to see what is possible. and there is always the resource settings availible to be tuned down from gather options as well. So there are lots of ways to counter these things :)

Hello Igneli!
I'm sorry to say that but in my opinion, it's not a good idea to set the elements to be harvested from dead corpses.
I think most of the servers admins like me want to have a fix amount of elements dropped, we don't want the element farming too easy or too cheaty
You said it'll scale to our servers settings, it's true it'll scale with the harvesting multiplier but also with the damage stats of the dinos who will harvest. And during week-ends events the harvesting multiplier are always doubled...
So the amount elements will become uncontrollable for us
So personally, I'd prefer a fix amount like it is actually 🙂
It's better for me because if I think it's too easy to farm elements, I can deactivate spawning of some elemental alphas
Actually I'm trying to set my server with only mosasaurs and thusothetis for instance (and it doesn't work, they just don't spawn I don't know why, I'm on ragnarok map)

Over the next few days i'll be streaming working on the new mod, if you'd like feel free to stop by and let me know if you have suggestions, ideas, or just want to hang out and listen to some music while i get everything setup.

Hello Eliaz, thanks for your interest, it gives me a little motivation. Time frame wise im not too sure how long it will be. with the release of abberation, there are a ton more spawners to setup, and a few new alphas. Then there will be balancing after the fact. Coupled with having to start from scratch. So it could be days, or weeks before its finalized.

As for the ammount dropped, i wanted to try a new method this time around that gives 100% chance of drops, but scales based on your server setup. So, instead of looting it from a corpse, you will be able to harvest it from their dead bodies. That being said, it will scale based off your server harvest rates, ideally. unless something happens from now till then. I am open to suggestions.

Along with this, i will be adding a few things to the drop tables if they dont drop normally in game as well. like a blue print of the harpoon gun will drop off of high level rex's, or maybe something like that, i havnt decided yet.

Hello Igneli! Your project of a new mod seems to be great! Will it allow us to make some adjustments through ini settings? Like amount of elements dropped?
And do you have an idea when it'll be ready? Is it more in days, weeks, months...?
Thanks for your work 😊

I'm excited to say, i will be working on a new version of this mod. making the dinos more difficult and possibly more useful. I will post the updated link in the mod description upon finalization

Does it work on Ragnarok?

I am getting element just fine. I am not however, getting a notification? any ideas there.

yea lately on our server they drop no more element :(

it should work still, and with annunaki aswell.

Does this still work? Also on Ragnarok ? Does it work with annunaki?

@Igneli that is so saad to hear, i hope you get back in it, while i might not agree with everything in this mod i really do like the ideer of these oversized and much harder alphas as an alternative way to get elements, and it is exatly what would fit in my small community for those who cant summon the power to grind bosses to get elements^^

Sorry for the delay in response. The mod files on my hard drive were compromised. So the mod will unfortunatly be left as is for now until i get a lot of time and motivation to rebuild the mod.

@Clonie it for sure has working sharks, wasnt to sure if the squid and mosa spawned correctly however

For some reason mine are dropping any elements.

Added a discussion Thread about changing the stats

Hey. I made som settings to change hp/damage on the Elemental alphas since they where to weak for a modded server. but not 100% sure if they work. i can post it here if anyone are willing to try em.

Does the mod include elemental alphas of ocean beast? mosa, megalodon, tuso ?

how are you supposed to tame them?

Is this mod still being updated?

say Igneli i just posted a video on your alphas mod. if you would like to take a look at it it can be found here... https://youtu.be/AMiXMpSAQss

Suggestion, When they update the dev kit, how about adding elemental sarcos to the list.

no problem, glad your enjoying it. yeah you could add them to the spawners manually if you can find the spawner names and what not for the map. then you can plug in the dino codes to thos spawners in ur server settings.

Ok, that is what i thought, but was hoping that the raptors would spawn with the default spawners. Maybe i can get ACM to add them in. Thanks for your work and making our games all the more fun.

Cstalker, this isn't going to work on abberation, as it is a new map, with new spawners. If/When they decide to update the devkit with abberation updates i can put the alpha's in the abberation spawners. Until then, there is nothing any modder can do about anything dealing with abberation sadly.

I've been waiting for a dev kit update for months to work on my Tek mod, and now this one. They are looking at earliest time for dev kit update to be about January some time.

anyone get this to work on Aberration? I have installed it but have not seen anything spawn yet

certain dinos it is not garunteed, such as raptors and carnos. rest should drop it all the time.

Is Element loot a guaranteed? I have Killed a few of them that did not giv Element. They gave other loot such a improved crossbow and thropy but no element.

i've patched the dino tames, they should no longer be tamable.

does anyone try the PreventDinoTameClassNames="Argent_Character_BP_C" for block the alpha taming?

maybe the death worms issue is a map issue maybe it work on scorched earth but not on ragnarok or others...

I cant figure out why, the death worms refuse to pop out of the ground. and when they do in the devkit they are not in the proper placement. I have yet to find one in the open world also.

Also no problem, hope you enjoy it

Hi any one see Elemental Death Worms looks like only a blue smog is normale or is a little problem? Ty for the nice mod ^__^
