About this mod

(requires the Carnivore Dinosaur Pack, 'Claire's Sanctuary' and the latest version of ACSE to use, read the description before downloading or reporting issues) Adds the infamous Gasosaurus to the game as a new species.

Requirements
Permissions and credits
At the behest of a friend who doesn't even own the game on PC, this mod adds a new dinosaur to the game: Gasosaurus, a lion-sized theropod known from scant remains that was discovered under (and named for) some slightly unusual circumstances. It is unlocked on Isla Tacaño with about a third of a bar of reputation with the Entertainment division in the campaign/at 2 stars in Challenge Mode.

This mod requires the Carnivore Dinosaur Pack, the 'Claire's Sanctuary' DLC (for reasons pertaining to the next requirement) and a mod called the Awesome Cobra Script Extender/ACSE, specifically the latest version of the mod (v1.1). The installation procedure is as follows:

  • Download the latest version of ACSE/the Awesome Cobra Script Extender from https://github.com/OpenNaja/ACSE/releases/tag/1.1, the
  • download link should read 'Awesome.Cobra.Script.Extender.zip'
  • Extract the file. If you're using 7Zip, which is what I use for all of this, make sure you click 'Extract Here' instead of any of the other options. If a folder named 'ACSE' appears after you extract the file, you've installed it correctly and you can delete the .zip file (not the folder). If a folder named 'Awesome.Cobra.Script.Extender' appears, delete that folder (not the .zip file, you still need that) and try again.
  • Download this very mod
  • Either drag/drop or copy/paste the 'GasosaurusNL' folder to the following directory: 'steam\steamapps\common\Jurassic World Evolution\Win64\ovldata'. Do not rename the folder, and do not put the folder in any of the folders already inside of ovldata.

Depending on how many ACSE-reliant mods you already have installed, you may encounter a strange issue: the Gasosaurus's research icon may overlap with one of the pre-existing icons in the Paleobotany menu, making the icon unselectable. To remedy this issue, follow these steps:

  • Right click to leave the Paleobotany menu and go back to the base research menu
  • Enter another research submenu
  • Right click to leave that menu
  • Re-enter the Paleobotany menu. The icon should now be selectable. If you are unhappy with the layout of the menu or it still does not let you click the icon, retry the process with a different submenu

Known Issues
  • No blinking
  • Strange but harmless... issues with hunting goats and guests (this is consistent with all of the other small carnivore mods thus far), much more serious issues may arise when hunting compies or dinosaurs using the compy rig


If you find any serious issues that aren't acknowledged above, please do report them; the more descriptive the reports the better, "game crashed please help" isn't something I can go off of very well.
