What it does

Prehistoric creatures join the overworld as mobs with their own animations, drops and behaviours, so they feel like part of the environment rather than placed decorations. Geckolib is needed for the early releases of the mod, so it has to be installed alongside it there. Both client and server need the mod, and the project publishes builds for Forge and NeoForge across 1.19.2 – 1.21.8, with 1.5.2 for 1.20.1 as the latest Forge file and 1.5.3 for 1.21.8 as the latest NeoForge file. It is released under All rights reserved and is not open source.

Key features

  1. Dinosaurs and extinct animals

    The mod brings a range of dinosaurs, extinct animals and mythological creatures into the world.

  2. Unique creature behaviour

    Each creature has its own animations, drops and behaviours, which keeps the spawns distinct from one another.

  3. Planned additions

    Future updates are planned to add new creatures, items, biomes and structures.

Questions

Does ShineaL's Prehistoric Expansion need Geckolib?

Geckolib is required on the earlier releases of the mod, so it must be installed alongside the mod on those versions.

Do players need the mod to join a server that runs it?

Yes. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too.
