Apatosaurus

[Supa]

An apatosaurus, requested by Gojira54 and Balthasar.

Run > Default > Fidget > Fortify > Attack A > Attack B > Victory > Fortify (alt) > Attack B > Death

It is deliberately an archaic view of the Apatosaurus. Swan-like neck, tail on the ground, not using its tail as a weapon (or a deterrent). It would fit rather nicely in mods with a Lost World or even pulp vibe.

The first Attack is a little more kinetic than what you might expect from an old dino-movie, so an alternate Fortify is available if you want to cue it directly to Attack B. An alternative Attack A is also available if you want it to loop.

Also included an apatosaurus resource.

Model by Scott Ayers.

Supa I love you (like a bro)


Can't wait to DL it!

You're already there, Gojira ? Damn, you're quick !

Animations were done days ago, but I kept bumping into problems when I centered the unit. Every mistake I could do, I did.

 

[Gojira54]

I've been waiting for this, and now I already have it!

 

[Kyriakos]

Looks great

 

[Balthasar]

This fills a huge hole in the Dino line, doesn't it? It looks perfect, Supa. The Steampunk: Lost World team owes you one. Or two.....
I love that it sits like my cat.

 

[Supa]

Thanks for the comments!

Balthasar, any idea how you'll use it ?

 

[Kyriakos]

Perhaps the mod will have a "Center of the earth" terrain somewhere, and dinosaurs will be living there?

 

[tom2050]

Love it Supa! It could not have been done any better than that!

 

[bigdog5994]

I freaking love it

 

[Virote_Considon]

Excellent! It definitely has that old dino-movie feel you were going for down to a tee!

 

[Vuldacon]

Supa... Great Work... The movements you animated for the apatosaurus have a Lumbering, Heavy look that enhance the realism of this Huge Dinosaur

That`s a cool one. It will bunch with the PTW ones very well. So ,welcome in the horde !

 

[Takhisis]

Ooohhh... nice.
And kudos to gojira for making such a rtequest!

Nice entry, too. Mr. Supa Conan Doyle!!

 

[Righteous Fist]

Great work, this will go great in my Skull Island Map.

 

[Balthasar]

Balthasar, any idea how you'll use it ?

In the Steampunk: Lost Worlds mod, in the underground world of Pellucidar, a place first described by Edgar Rice Burroughs. We've got an animal race, the Mahar, in Pellucidar that includes all of the currently available Dinos, into which pantheon your magnificent Sauropod will share grazing land with Plotinus' Mammoth and Tom2020's Sabre Tooth Tiger, two other recently made and sorely-needed units (if you wanna put together any sort of decent "lost world", that is..).

Y'know, while looking through those Pellucidar maps, I realized that one cool critter on it we don't have is Giant Ants........I could make a giant anthill for them....just thought I'd throw that out there......

 

[General 666]

There is no units_32.pcx in the archive.

 

[Supa]

Thanks guys.

General_666 > I thought I made one. Probably forgot it at the last instant. Ress.pcx (49x49) can easily be resized to 32x32 or even cropped - you don't need that much tail anyway.

Righteous Fist > Looking forward to your Skull Island map. Is it a scenario ?

Balthasar > I haven't followed the dev. thread of your mod but I'm looking forward to it. An Ant unit is somewhat possible. Just have to find an appropriate model.

Gojira plans to use AttackA_ALT.flc animation (the looping stomp) as a chopping worker animation. Haven't though of it like this when I made it but it is indeed a good idea.

 

[Gojira54]

I thought Giant ants were made for the Fallout scenario? If not they should add it.

Righteous Fist I would like to hear more about it, too, as there will be a skull island in Modzilla as well...

 

[Ozymandias]

Magnificent animations! Very realistic.

Great Work,

Oz
