Somebody should make a Jurassic Park pack. We've already got T-Rex and the Raptor. How bout the Dilophosaurus (the frilled dino that spits venom like a cobra) That could use the Bullsquid venom spit type attack. Or a Triceratops that would use an attack like the Antlion Guard charge and ram.
that is a sweet snpc you got there man Lua kinged!
[QUOTE=Kraaz]When I spawn Rexy its legs clip through the ground and it just sits there unless I walk right up to its mouth.[/QUOTE]
yeah same last night it was fine but when i went on this morning his legs are through the ground and he can,t move he just makes his anger noises.
[QUOTE=SilentS]Already been made.[/QUOTE]
I know but what about at least hexing the existing one so it doesn't replace the fastzombie

I have no idea what you are talking about, it's been made, completely hexed and does not replace the fast zombie [url]http://www.garrysmod.org/downloads/?a=view&id=57642[/url]

yeh just found out... I was going to edit my post!
PS. i was talking about this: [url]http://www.garrysmod.org/downloads/?a=view&id=45474[/url] if you read the discription it says it replaces fastzombie. I just never saw the new hexed one. :dumb:
How do i make the T-rex as a NPC like kleiner,barney, and breen. Since i only have the T-rex as a ragdoll can someone help.
Let's see....Uh shouldn't the T-Rex not see or sense you if you stand still?It should also just walk around if it doesn't see any prays or enemy's instead of standing still.The speed of the T-Rex is also to slow.It might also need more range of view.The T-Rex's head can pass through walls and attack you if you are close enough or he is chasing you.However the snpc is awesome
I'm pretty sure this line
[lua]elseif self:GetPos():Distance(self:GetEnemy():GetPos()) < 1500 then self:Roar();[/lua]
is causing this error
[lua]entities/npc_tyran_rex/init.lua:458: attempt to index a nil value[/lua]
It seems the error only occurs when he kills an npc
ween i dwnload this the rex keeps falling into the ground
It looks good but due to problems with garrysmod.org I cannot download it. Could you please upload it to filefront or another mirror like that? Thanks.
[QUOTE=TheBoy]Let's see....Uh shouldn't the T-Rex not see or sense you if you stand still?[/QUOTE]
That was originally planned, and even animated, but Xystus' custom schedules failed, so he scrapped it.
[QUOTE=TheBoy]It should also just walk around if it doesn't see any prays or enemy's instead of standing still.[/QUOTE]
It...does? :\
[QUOTE=TheBoy]The speed of the T-Rex is also to slow.[/QUOTE]
Adressed, adressed, mailed, returned, and adressed again.
If he were any faster, the believability of his motion would crumble. His model isn't large enough to take the strides necessary to move as fast as the old one, which was massive and unrealistic. There are no plans on making him bigger. Humans stood to around a Rex's knee, and they do exactly that in GMod. His size is correct, and so likely is his speed.
[QUOTE=TheBoy]It might also need more range of view.[/QUOTE]
Eh wha'?
[QUOTE=TheBoy]The T-Rex's head can pass through walls and attack you if you are close enough or he is chasing you.[/QUOTE]
That just seems to be an issue of having a model as big as Rexy as an NPC. His hitbox hull simply isn't big enough to contain his entire body. Not even Silverlan has managed to fix this, as shown by his Gargantua snpc. Unless Valve gives support for npc's with larger proportions, this is unlikely to be fixed.
Also, it wuld be much...MUCH worse if Rexy were bigger. Remember the old Rex, that could only take hits on 25% of his body? Yeah, him being smaller helps his functionality. And it also makes it a bit less jarring when he fits into smaller spaces.
[QUOTE=TheBoy]However the snpc is awesome[/QUOTE]
I thank you, and I'm sure Xystus thanks you :)
We've worked hard on Rexy, wanting to put out a Rex npc that we would want from a game. Mind you, sadly a lot of things were cut, and a lot of animations I made were never used. Maybe someday Xystus will figure out custom schedules, or some Lua God will descend onto the Internets and bring out everything we had hoped we could do.
Some things that were animated, but cut:
1: Searching for players that are standing still
2: Having a Flare SWEP/Entity that would momentarily hypnotize him, that he would chase after if you threw it.
3: He would be unable to enter spaces too small for his model, and instead would approach entrances and perform an animation showing him trying to shove his head inside.
4: Turning animation, which would play whenever he would change orientation without already moving. I don't know why this hasn't been implemented, but then I know nothing about Lua and probably believe too much.
5: Prop attacking, where if you tried hiding behind or darted through a number of moveable props, he would headbutt them out of his way to clear a path to you. Last I'd heard he had been TRYING to do this, but I never was sure if he'd dropped it or if it was coded, but merely terribly ineffective.
[QUOTE=kak714]what about making other dinosaurs like Velociraptor?
[img]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/2/2f/Velociraptor_mongoliensis_jmallon.jpg[/img][/QUOTE]
Actually the raptor was coverd with feathers instead of scales.
Can't wait to try this out. Can only see what happens on gm_botmap_v3. Him trying to headbutt the train car I'm in off the track to eat me.
I don't know why It Is but It seems half of rexys body falls into the ground no matter where I spawn it, Any one have any ideas of how to fix this?

What map are you on, because it mght not be the t-rex that's the problem.
for some crazy reason whenever I spawn "rexy :D" he has no animations and is halfway through the ground. all he does is point his inanimate model at me and make sounds.also if you get too close you will fly trough the air(headbutt) or you will instantly die by a stomping sound.
but I think I might have found the problem...

Probably You have a dinosaur pack addon, remove these files:
cm9380.dx80.vtx
cm9380.dx90.vtx
cm9380.mdl
cm9380.phy
cm9380.sw.vtx
cm9380.vvd
from "models\cm9380" in the dinosaur pack.
P.S. Good job with Rexy :D.
This deserves more than a lua king.

yeah I know I already fixed it like 2 seconds after I posted.
I also found that rexy won't chase you if you are in a vehicle :( you should make it so he will chase your vehicle and try to knock it over and he won't attack the raptor if it attacks him he will mainly focus on you.
if you can programm him enough to act like this you will be a lua god:

EDIT:
he sould also attack props if they are in his way while chasing a target

Ah! THAT explains it!
Okay, I'd been wondering about all that. That explains what's hapenning for a lot of people.
Yeah, we didn't change the name of Rexy's mdl files and accompanying files, so if you have the dinosaur pack, you'll need to delete those, because the snpc is looking for the model of that name, and it's just getting the ragdoll, and not the animated mdl.
Also, I've driven the airboat AND the buggy jeep, and Rexy has chased me as best as he could. Actually had a few tense moments when the jeep hung up on the coast to Odessa, Rexy following, while shaking off antlions. You don't feel right driing reverse with a TRex on your tail :D

I meant vehiles like the pod and chairs.
I know because I was on botmap V3 and I made a train (2 cars) and an airboad seat up front. he wouldn't chase me even when I put father gregori on the back shooting at him!
Can someone upload a vid of him please?
If have this problem when i walk in front of him he does nothing.
When i shoot at him he follows me and then he stops for 30 seconds then he will do it again.
And i spawned some combine soldiers and in a moment he stops and does nothing.
Just complete nothing.
Thank you all for your comments and bug reports!
Sorry if I haven't read all your posts, I've been busy recently with other things in my life than working on this, although I'm actually going to release a REAL patch in the coming week.
I downloaded this yesterday, but feel sorta disappointed. I wish there was a way the T-Rex could just, walk around the map.
Or not stop chasing me when I'm out of range of him.
It would be wild if his roar could disable noclip on you if you're in the range to hear it. Or have a toggle for this if people find it annoying.
Plus, he needs a higher reaction time when he gets shot by an NPC and/or a player.
Theirs always been (1) Npc that I've wanted someone to make and that is the megalodon Npc.So just try to work on that one the other dinosaurs i don't care for but the megalodon would be amazing.

Ok that is a freakin awesome idea. His roar should disable your noclip and keep it disabled for maybe like 30 sec?! Maybe J-dude/Xystus234 could add that?
