how do you get the modded giga to spawn? I can't summon it and it doesn't replace the vanilla giga either

hmmm i did the npc replacement thing and neither spawned
Rusty One Two  [author] 22 Apr, 2022 @ 4:17pm 
@Saurus_King it works fine, but you may need to do a replacement in the configs
Bug 22 Apr, 2022 @ 11:56am 
i mean i flew across the whole map and didn't find a single giga not modded nor normal
Bug 21 Apr, 2022 @ 11:44pm

A wild GIGA would be better if it could attack Rex

Tristan 25 Jul, 2021 @ 4:45pm 
Also I cant seem to just spawn it in
Tristan 25 Jul, 2021 @ 4:35pm

1,can you narrow the rider's vision ? 2,them can't be taken to boss battles and Tek cave. Great mod,thank you!!!
Nixtut  [author] 5 Apr, 2021 @ 7:24am 
I have tested this mod on a ton of maps with a lot of different creature mods (i don't care for the extinction and primal stuff but to each his own, I'd just go play wow for fantasy and progression lol) but it works with many of the big creature mods out there!

Let me know if you need the replacement command for your .ini file setup. @Glitchtro 163
Nixtut  [author] 5 Apr, 2021 @ 7:22am 
Glad you are enjoying it. :)
Rusty is the man!

Cheers Glitchtro!

Yes! Thanks! A realistic Giganotosaurus!
Nixtut  [author] 8 Feb, 2021 @ 7:41am 
They have less drag weight. Rex and Giga should be just fine to fight a boss.

them can be taken to boss battles and Tek cave?
Nixtut  [author] 3 Jan, 2021 @ 9:50pm 
The Gigas have a gnash effect that can be pretty nasty. We just seek to make the dinosaur more in line with the others.
All of the "big three" can win depending on advantageous terrain.

Can you narrow the rider's vision and enhance the turns
sdg004642 26 Nov, 2020 @ 8:02am 
When boarding, the time points are placed similar to Rex and walk at the same speed as Rex. The walking speed of Giga does not seem to be much different from the running speed.
正在无限装逼的霸王龙 11 Nov, 2020 @ 5:25am 
Actually, could you add a few SAUROPODS?
正在无限装逼的霸王龙 8 Nov, 2020 @ 6:25am 
Does Giga's bleed buff like Carno drain 0.5% per second or the original 1% per second?
正在无限装逼的霸王龙 3 Nov, 2020 @ 6:26am 
Rex growls a bit like Yutyrannus, but can fear a giant creature like Spino. And will attack Giga, Spino. I think it's designed more like a tyrant
正在无限装逼的霸王龙 3 Nov, 2020 @ 3:32am 
If you can spot rex, hopefully replace the snarling buff with fear.
Rusty One Two  [author] 2 Nov, 2020 @ 4:19pm 
I'm glad the updates are meeting expectations. As far as future changes go, there was discussion of changing alpha rexes but I didn't have time.

For future mods I have plenty of ideas and very little time, I made time for this mod as it was commissioned.

I'm usually open to paid mod work if it falls within my skill set.
正在无限装逼的霸王龙 2 Nov, 2020 @ 5:00am 
I'm happy with the mod for now, but I don't know what your plans are for the future. Like the changes to the mod and the new mod
Rusty One Two  [author] 31 Oct, 2020 @ 12:55pm 
So, I've got a fix for the wood gathering issue ready for final testing.

The suggestion about Argent regeneration was a good one, however that ability is built into the Argent pretty solidly, I'd have to rebuild the entire creature to do that.

I've reduced the rate at which the torpidity drops, which should make the tame easier.

I should be able to push this patch within an hour or so, so please do let me know if you have further bug reports or suggestions.

When Giga attacks trees, it collects wood. Can you cancel it? It's a lot of trouble to get a full load in a fight
正在无限装逼的霸王龙 29 Sep, 2020 @ 8:23am 
The attack will collect wood. It is recommended that this feature be removed

Regaining the HP buff from Argentavis doesn't increase combat effectiveness, it only increases survivability
Nixtut  [author] 22 Sep, 2020 @ 10:24am 
The idea of the mod is to give the Giant Southern Lizard and the Tyrant King their own strengths and based in an equality instead of it being an overpowered kaiju, plus there are more on the maps i use!
正在无限装逼的霸王龙 15 Sep, 2020 @ 6:52am 
In fact, Giga Tamed almost to death, have not fainted. You can use an eagle's regeneration buff to restore blood flow to a carcass
正在无限装逼的霸王龙 12 Sep, 2020 @ 4:44am 
What do you think about adding an Argentavis to the cannibalized corpse-restoring HP buff? That both solves Giga's Torpidity, which is bigger than REX's, and makes it easier to die in the process. It's not the same as the Carnotaurus
Nixtut  [author] 12 Sep, 2020 @ 4:35am 
Seems to ride ok when I'm next to a rex, it's a tiny bit longer and a little bigger at the hip, which is what we were going for.

The torpor issue is being sorted out.

It will still be an epic tame for you. ;)

They are a really nice dino to run around and fight things.

Just watch yourself though, you can still catch some good fights with the other A-Tier predators. :)
Nixtut  [author] 10 Sep, 2020 @ 2:21pm 
It is tamable, yes. It's a hell of a difficult tame.
Rusty One Two  [author] 9 Sep, 2020 @ 2:35pm 
Thanks for the feedback, I'll take a look next time I'm in the mod. Right now with my schedule I'm only available to work on this once in a couple weeks. Should be able to get into it this week though.
Alexandre 9 Sep, 2020 @ 11:47am 
This version is tameable? I shoot 200+ shocking darts and it died instead of knock out.
正在无限装逼的霸王龙 9 Sep, 2020 @ 7:19am 
Riding makes the GIGA look too small
正在无限装逼的霸王龙 9 Sep, 2020 @ 7:18am 
You might want to change the look after the ride
Rusty One Two  [author] 24 Aug, 2020 @ 4:38pm 
正在无限装逼的霸王龙 We've made the recommended updates, thanks for your feedback!
Nixtut  [author] 24 Aug, 2020 @ 6:46am 
Giga in no way should be superior to T-Rex

The only way it would have a shot is to try to ambush a dinosaur with 28000 lb of bite force, is bulkier, and has stereoscopic vision, and not the walnut brained monster of JP.

The giga was simply not as smart.

Having said that, A carno bleed style mechanic doesn't sound awful since in the ark they don't really cross one another.
Rusty One Two  [author] 22 Aug, 2020 @ 10:51pm 
OK I understand, you're suggesting base HP be set to 1200 and the attack change to the gnashed attack that does that bleed effect. I'll take a look at it with the mod sponsor and get back to you.
正在无限装逼的霸王龙 22 Aug, 2020 @ 7:54pm 
I think Giga's targeting high-hp SAUROPODS. Probably due to the idea that Giga teeth bleed and rex teeth crush
正在无限装逼的霸王龙 22 Aug, 2020 @ 7:51pm 
Health base reduced to REX level, attack with bleed buff. 2,500 lives on a foundation more terrifying than SAUROPODS. Attack with collateral blood buff can be very effective against SAUROPODS
Rusty One Two  [author] 22 Aug, 2020 @ 6:45pm 
"HP Base recommendation is reduced to around 1200, attack recommendation is attached to Carnotaurus's bleed buff"

Can you clarify what you are asking? You can just say it in Chinese if you prefer.
Rusty One Two  [author] 22 Aug, 2020 @ 6:32pm 
Thanks 正在无限装逼的霸王龙, I was able to reproduce the bug and I've fixed it, if this or other issues come up don't hesitate to let me know. I watch this thread for bug reports and the mod sponsor does as well.

TAME's Giga does not attack the enemy
