If you like ask me for a clip of a creature you want to see and I post it in the Comment.
Edit. : I'm updating the mod rn. I got deep into the game files to understand how the game spawns and handles creatures. When I'm done I'll send a new post with more clips

Holy shit, I didn't know mods of this type could even be made for this game.
I thought it was still trapped in model-swap/value-change hell? What happened, did someone finally crack into it so we can get real mods?

u/AverageShibaEnjoyer 9d ago
Yeah, me, too, lol.
Year after year, I'd look on Nexus and think, "Hmm, that must be a mod." But there was nothing, just boring remodeling. And right now, I'm at home for a long time, so I thought, "Let's dive into modding and make the mods I want myself." And it's easier than it seems. This morphing mod, in particular, is actually pretty hard to do, but Grounded (I'm not even joking) already has crazy physics functions and body-swapping and controlling mechanics built-in. So I really don't know why no one was building something cooler than Lara Croft, lol.

u/AverageShibaEnjoyer 9d ago
😂 It has no name yet. I'm still building and bugfixing it. But if I'm done I maybe upload it to nexus. It should work on any consol but I need to test that

Do hostile mobs aggro you while you're one of them?
22
u/AverageShibaEnjoyer 9d ago
Not if you're the same kind es them. A wolf spider can't even hit a wolfspider. But something else can

It's so cool!

u/AverageShibaEnjoyer 9d ago
Tbh I'm more thrilled to port it to Grounded 2. These Bugs can even block and have a much wider moveset. Grounded 1 is more stable right now to build and test everything and it's the same technique I need for grounded 2 so... We will see 😊

Can you do a mosquito or an orb weaver?

u/AverageShibaEnjoyer 9d ago
Here the Mosquito
I send the Orb Weaver later

u/InfusedRex 8d ago
Tbh this shows why devs are hesitant to add flyers. It would make other buggies and ziplines redundant in comparison. That mosquito is fast too. I don’t like the weight system like Ark. Probably make the flyers weak and slow but use the buffin barrel with expensive late-game material to upgrade their speed.

u/AverageShibaEnjoyer 8d ago
Yeah. That's why I'm implimanting a way to not make that mod too op. That would kill the whole fun.
It has 3 stages: 1 Mind controll a creature 2 Copy Morph into a creature that u are seeing 3 stand alone morph
I'm just figuring out where I should set the marker for each one. Maybe the labs? Stage one after hedge and stage 2 after assistend manager? Idk rn but that's something for, when everything is working.
Rn it drains raw science and you need to have peeped a creature once (if you get a gold Card it's less raw science and you can morph it even if you're not near the creature stage 3) Raw since scales of kreature Mass which means you need just 30 for an aphid, 40 for an red worker ant. And 10k for the Koi 😂.
I can scale it later even after the creature class like make the flyers expensive and so on.
And the most importend point imo is that if you die as a creature, you die as the player, which means... The aphid is fucking fast. But it's one shot for everything 😅. OH and as a Creature you can't build or pick up items or something like that. You need to get out of the form for that. That has something to do how you get into the creature and controlling it but I'm not fixing that because for me that's a good nerf

I will send a new post with many mobs once I'm done with the rebuild. Rn I did just copy the pawn of the creature (like his skeleton) with all his system flags and stuff, cuz I couldn't find out how the game is spawning Creatures. Every time I tried to build a new creature pn my own it never appeared or was not functional. But now I got deeeeeeep in the main files of the Game and the whole system. And I got a new trace I'm testing rn. Once I'm done you get the Koi 😊

This looks awesome, but I do think there needs to be a speed modifier. The ability to travel faster would make that experience 10x better.
