About this mod

Isla Nublar, August 1989. This is this finished collaboration build between RecycleGuy and RobEarthYT of Michael Crichton's Jurassic Park. Far more detailed than the LITE version with twice the amount of work, twice the authors and twice the DLCs - a Canadian and German collaborative build.
"Flaws in the system will now become severe"

Your contributions make great gaming possible, and a special thanks to GameVideosForLife for helping me troubleshoot this park when I was having technical difficulties early on in the build.

This Build requires more mods and more DLCs than the LITE version. DLCs required are Biosyn, Malta, Park Manager's collection pack, and Marine Species. If there are any that I am forgetting please let me know in the comments. The mod listing in the requirement dropdown box contains mostly commonly used mods, but also six or seven dinosaur mods. 

RobEarthYT is a friend of mine, both him and I listened to the audiobook and used the pages of the novel for reference during the build. RobEarthYT is a map mod author, you can find his builds here on Nexus and on his YouTube channel. BestInSlot has just showcased his Cretaceous DLC Park on YouTube. His environmental work and dinosaur skin choices brings a natural realism to this novel build, I owe him many thanks for his work on this build. This build will soon be on his YouTube channel. We kept in communication for weeks discussing the novel and this build, the end result is an unbelievable improvement over the LITE version I uploaded weeks ago while we were still working on this build. RobEarthYT's choices for the dinosaur mods give this novel build a distinctive look in contrast to the dinosaurs seen in the films.

The layout of this park is my own design - there are plenty of novel maps available online, however I found all of these to have flaws so I created my own map. I started by sizing the lagoon to scale and worked with the book from there. Some compromises had to have been made in regards to the dinosaurs to keep the 15 species as described in the novel; Muttaburrasaurus was used in lieu of Hadrosaurus, Kulindadromeus in lieu of Othnielia, and we retained Compsognathus for Procompsognathus. I must thank RobEarthYT again for making the choices in regards to the dinosaurs in this build.

Gameplay notes: We had issues with lag and crashing during the build but they have since been resolved, the game runs fine so enjoy.

Updated to 1.1 for last minute changes to Pteratops Lodge. Added MrTroodoon's Kulindadromeus mod
