Have a quick question. What does absolute base level modifier do?
Dragon Protector 6 May, 2017 @ 8:32pm 
What that last line mean? At way bottom.
Kylaar 16 May, 2017 @ 1:17pm 
I'm going to ask this again because I didn't get a real answer last time. How do I improve the effectiveness of the gas dragons breath attack, in order to knock things out. I was given a link to this discussion as a quick answer, but I see nothing in the .ini that would affect this. Any help would be appreciated.

And of course, this is still my favorite mod. Great work, Chris!

Thanks for your time

Sorry got no clue. Still waiting on my question to be answered.

my next update will have the elemental buff GUS to adjust the torpor etc...
and the mega hellkite swaps the hellkite blueprint with one that is the size of the boss dragon.
Kylaar 17 May, 2017 @ 3:41pm 
awesome to hear, thanks again!

The FlyingRotationRateModifier settings don't seem to do anything.

I might be wrong but I'm assuming this changes the turn rate of the various critters during flight?

I've been doing some testing on the drakes: increasing this modifier and have not see any difference with thier flight. I've gone incrementally all the way up to =10 for all the drakes.

Should this be a number between 0 and 1, or 0 and 100? Too big, too small?
christopherstumbaugh  [developer] 17 May, 2017 @ 4:23pm 
@Sarcasm Detector... im not sure why but i will look into it and do some testing.

Is there any chance of getting a way to affect the base health of the various dragons? Running this side-by-side with other core mods like extinction or Ark:Eternal doesn't really give these dragons a chance at the low health/damage they have.

Having the ability to scale their stats would be really handy to keep them relevant.

Any chance of even maybe getting a health multiplier for .ini use? I'd really like to keep this mod, but the dragons don't stand a chance when scaled to other dinos at high level.

I agree some of the other dino's at higher levels destroy Especially the Giga's Also is the rotation command the spawn rate? i need to upgrade the spawn rate because they die so fast.
NoMercy 26 Mar, 2018 @ 4:01pm

How i can do it stronge after teamind ???
MTBear 16 Jul, 2018 @ 7:11am 
Do you NEED the ini settings or can you just install and go?
