LOL! Oh well I guess you have other plans instead. Hmm do you have a major one you are cooking up?

That's why I like the summarized versions you get in the movie, it's all there and you understand the basic premise but the story keeps moving forward. That's actually one of the things I was disappointed with in the film(s). In JP1 you only get from Malcolm a vague idea about what Chaos Theory is,...

TLW Novel There is quite a lot of exposition, yes. In JP1 the novel (which I'm currently rereading again), I like Malcolm's early exposition, as he describes Chaos Theory and why he thinks the park can't work. Great stuff. Then later in the book he gets into bigger picture ideas about global issues...

Great that you finally finished! Afraid I don't want to play it again atm since it sounds virtually the same. But my memory of the level is quite fond. I wonder if the animated palm leaves are more visible with a higher framerate. I quite like all your new models, they are great. IIRC the jungle eve...

Ohh I don't think I recalled that being the case. Interesting concept, I like how realistic that is. I thought you didn't like the second novel... :rolleyes: Why it would cause zombie Raptors is a mystery to me. Hehe, my brain was fun like that back then. I forget if I thought of zombies or DX firs...

That reminds me, I'd wanted to re-create the Four Towers observation towers at one point as proper new models instead of building-blocks, might have been for RTJP. Can never have enough tower models. :P Booooo!! :P The marsh with the "zombie" Raptors is one of my favourite places in any T...

JPDS levels Hahaha. Hmm let me think. JPDS2, inside the HSP (Hazardous Species Paddock) was going to have a custom building just outside one of the gates, for monitoring carnivores and for holding (coelphysis?). That I guess is makable with building blocks. The eastern half of the HSP was meant for...

Hmm well your model looks great. Too bad JPDS2 and JPDS3 are never going to happen.

With all these new dinos, we really need some new levels to put them in... They look pretty great to have in Trespasser. I heard there was a Kenner Dimetrodon being made in the forums for some "Pens" level which, I believe is still isn't released. Hmmm machf are you reading this? When migh...

Spino Ah that looks great. Hmm looks pretty close to the movie to me. Admittedly the Spino in JP/// is pretty bright-colored, but the darker tone here is still appreciated. A note: I've noticed the JP/// Spino's snout is thinner on the animatronic than on the CG model they used. Not sure which your...

Sounds nice. A lot of Spino skins I see are light-colored as I mentioned before, looking forward to your version.

Neat. Don't see pachys much in Tres. There was going to be one in TC_Isle but they never got to it.

Planning on any other dino skins?

Personally I am amazed that AI can generate working program code. In my mind its potential is there but only works on small-scale code things... When it's more complicated and you fix/tweak it after, I'd say at that point it's coming down to laziness/messiness.

Looks nice. Again I appreciate the darker tone than is often come up with when people grab google images and put them on models. Looks closer to the film.
