About this mod Machine translation

----Introducing, Tamable Megapithecus! ----

Ever wanted that giant boss gorilla as a pet? Well now you can!

Don’t forget to rate and like it the most!!!

NOTE: This is for balancing vanilla, if you want to modify it you will have to use stat multipliers on your server.

This mod adds a new rare type of Megapithecus to the game that rarely spawns on all official maps. It's the same size as the boss gorilla and has the same level of awesomeness, but is still a bit under the Giganotosaur's power so it's not too powerful.

But they are still strong, just imagine their fists are like 6 ton trucks hitting you at 60 miles per hour. If you encounter one of these things (if you're not Giga then), you'd better run, or prepare for a fierce fight!

----More information about the mod:

The new Megapithecus have color zones so they can produce black, orange, white, etc.

They can reproduce and yes, can have mutations, so a giant blue gorilla is possible :D

There are two new custom saddles, the regular Gorilla Saddle and the Gorilla Cargo Saddle. The regular version has one seat, while the cargo saddle has 3 additional passenger seats where your partner can tag along. Both saddles can be colored and crafted in the new saddle table.

Added extra texture, removed the ugly scar on its upper body, and replaced it with a birthmark. I like to think of these gorillas as the descendants of Megapithecus who escaped their boss's arena so long ago, with all that's left but a mark of that old horrific incarceration.

----The new Megapithecus also has a variety of attacks:

-Left Click: Regular ground punching/crushing, may damage stone structures.

-Right Click: Pick up a rock and throw it, similar to Rock Elemental.

-C Button: Apply a super impact to the ground, causing a lot of damage. But drains a lot of stamina, and has a cooldown. But it also damages metal.

-X Button: 360-degree spin attack, more durable than regular left click, but does more damage.

-Ctrl Button: Is there an awesome roar, just for immersion.

-Q Button: Chestpound, also good for immersion.

Megapithecus spawn in snow and mountains, and spawn on bioluminescent biomes.

You shake them off and feed them meat or berries to tame them. Their favorite kibble is Titanoboa. Be prepared for a tough taming, it's not going to be easy, considering it's really fast and will most likely beat you in one instance. I would suggest building some kind of trap, or standing in a strategic position to get past it.

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
  3. Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
  4. Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.

Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
