Custom NPCs.. Not what you're thinking either

Ok, I'm going to be making a MP mod which will need custom NPC's. But there's a catch.. These NPC's need to be Dinosaurs. that's right, T-rex, Brontosaurus, Diloposaurus.. etc. The mod is going to based on the movie Jurassic park. The reason i'm posing about the NPC's here is because I'm thinking you guys need a new kind of challenge. Well, here it is. I need these asap as i'm already working on the map. I would really appreciate the help. :wink:

Incorrect. "Derek can help you with this.", not will, who says he wants to help?

You want custom models, or AI, or what? Be specific.

well Mainman.. I need Custom Models. I'm hoping to somehow get the models where in MP they'll randomly hunt players.. Of course anything eating plants wouldn't do that.. but I think it would be a cool mod :wink:

You might be waiting for a very long time.... So far I there isn't anybody who seems to want to make something like this.. especially the type of NPC's i'm needing. :cry: This map might end before it ever starts

well, currently i'm thinking of ending my work on the map after next week since I can't find NPC's for it... But at the same time I have a backup plan, but it won't look near as good as actual NPC's. :cry:

I have some AI code that may help, it allows NPC's to attack without using weapons. Though at the moment it's more zombie code than Dinosaur code. :P

Would be a good code to use.. Converting it for a dinosaur wouldn't be to hard.. getting the NPC's though..... that's a bit of a challenge.

Why don't you just make the greasels brown and huge? :P

True, it'd be good for a beta version for the time being. :P

Ok as I told everybody else about the Greasels.. They don't look like the dinosaurs I need. I can't make a greasel look like a T-rex, nor a dinosaur with a very long neck... Nor can I make it look like a raptor. But there is one dinosaur they do resemble.

Maybe I can help as I have just got my dx importing tool back. I do some modding but at the moment I has no motivation and got no clue what to make.

Well I got lucky I managed to find some already made NPC's.. Problem is I don't know how to convert them....
