This is my favourite mod by ElCeejo. It's not even for the dinosaurs themselves, but the gameplay. Scouring your world for fossils, never being quite sure what you'll find, the fossils are rare enough that you'll never be overloaded with them, providing that extra bit of motivation to delve into yet another cavern (which Minetest badly needs). Often enough your fossils end up being duds, but even then, the bones and other materials you get can still be put to use.
When you do find something cool though, another level of fun begins. Now you have to set up a labratory and play John Hammond in Jurassic Park. Like the fossil hunting gives you a reason to immerse yourself in the world, this mechanic gives you a reason to build more rooms. That's all before you get to managing your own menagerie of living dinosaurs, with feeders and various other tools.
The catch
This mod is an underdog compared to Draconis, so PaleoTest might not see as many updates or fast fixes when issues emerge. There were some texture issues for some dinosaurs and depending on the texture pack you’re playing with, sometimes the stone texture of the fossils doesn’t blend in making them easier to find than they should be.
But the potential...
As some players have requested, there could be an option for wild spawning dinosaurs - this could be done by having a special lost valley biome that generates very rarely and is isolated from the rest of the world by mountains (ala Arthur Conan Doyle's ‘Lost World’. You could also go full 90's action figure and embrace adding craftable cockpits, turrets, catapults and all kinds of gadgets onto dinosaurs.
Small tweaks I'd like to see
I'd love more lab gadgets and optionally depending on an electricity/power mod, to give you more reasons to build infrastructure. Also, electric fences that require generators opens up room for sabotage!
i love the mod,its nice for parachuting and fun to glide around in valleys.
the only thing i think it should be fixed is that the handles also be showed when you are in 3rd person view.
but its still a nice idea and a great mod!
+0% lag!
While your mod's appearance is good, the code quality is more important then anything else, especially on a potato server. The mod have thaes critical problems
uses minetest.after instead of entity steps to delete timed out missiles
place vehicles without logging
using hardcoded value instead of configuration value to switch default vehicles on/off
Overall, you should not install this mod on your new server, find some alternatives instead.
The flying is very nice. It seems realistic (as someone who has never piloted an aircraft) while also being pretty easy. It was very smooth when I tested in the vanilla Minetest Game, although that might change if you have a bunch of mods installed slowing things down. The model also looks very nice. I like the gauges.
Really cool & tough mob. Don't know if I would attempt fighting this thing on a survival server.
The current version (0.4.0) officially only supports up to Minetest 5.1. But I was able to run it on 5.4 with just a few warning messages. Didn't seem to have any other problems.
This mod works on minetest 5.4 and later versions when the "cottages" mod is enabled.
This mod works on minetest 5.4 and later versions when the "cottages" mod is enabled. v6 or flat mapgen is recommended (v7 mapgen is also supported but not so well).I tested this mod in Minetest Game and MineClone 5 successfully.
You can use the "mobf_trader" mod to add villagers to the village,but villagers may float above the houses sometimes.
Allows admins on survival servers to give special loot for their players... like one of these.
Bout the only issue I have with it is that there isn't a way to keep the fuel going when you move the furnace so only use this at your main base where you won't be moving your furnace around. (Also great for making the furnace always appear on)
could be on my end but after I put a train down and a few tracks its like it locks can't break it drive it and my trashcan stops working if I drop items they pop back in my inventory as well I'll keep goofing around with it could be this or basic trains or that dix or dlx trains mod
I like this mod because it is so intricate and has many features but I have found only one problem, I just cant find a dragon roost or a dragon cave.Please tell me how to find one. I also cant use a draconis steel forge even when i set it up correctly and use the coresponding dragon type and the right fuel source (dragon blood). Also i cant hatch the eggs because the old ways dont work .
I love this game! Escaping cruel bombing by running underground is a lot of fun! However, if you go too deep, you end up having TNT spawn undrground, which isn't any fun at all. I lost a chest full of stuff because of this bug.
But i am/will run an anarchy server using this game, because it's such a great concept!
This mod adds a bunch of fun mobs, some that you wouldn't expect from a mod that provides pets.
My only complaint is that the semen collection uses the syringe, which is completely inacurate. Although in Runs defense, I really don't know how to do it better.
The best part of this mod is the art and models. They fit the voxel aesthetic of Minetest Game very well, much better than the Mobs Animal ones. The mobs also generally have good behaiviours, and are fun to play with. The spawning definitly needs improvement, though. On default settings, mobs are too rare, and searching the whole world just for some chickens is not fun. The net is in my opinion too overpowered, maybe should just work on smaller mobs like chickens and cats.
This is a cool little food mod :D
I have a few suggestions; maybe add some sound effects? Also this probably might be a little hard, but it'd be cool if you could just place waffles on top of one another without having to craft stacks. Also the batter texture really doesn't fit what it's in, it'd be funny if it was batter inside a bucket :D
Also it's kind of weird how waffles can be placed on the sides of blocks.
Finally the selection/collison was kind of big, maybe just shorten in and not inlcude the clasp things in the selection/collison.
I know I wrote more critcizim then actaully praise, but that doesn't mean I don't like this mod, just a few suggestions :)
Thanks
Me: "I wish there were a compass that points North."
kestral: "Stop wishing."
This is not an item that is crafted. It is a setting that places a compass & clock on the screen. Sometimes it's nice to have a feature that doesn't occupy an inventory slot. The compass does not have any special features, other than simply displaying the player's facing direction. If all you are looking for is getting yourself oriented without enabling debugging or displaying the in-game time, this mod will do the job.
This mod adds a bunch of new ancient architectural styles of columns, complete with bases, capes, and some other thing I can't remember what it was called. :) There are also a handful of floor and wall nodes. It did seem as if there were some items that couldn't be crafted, specifically the polished marble, which is needed in several other recipes.
The textures are 32x32 so if you're a 16px purist this might not be the mod for you.
Cooler than Draconis, fight me.

Great, but problem with the translation into italian
Great Minetest Tutorial! I can only read the first sign in Italian, the others are in English. Do you know why?
Thanks.
best parachute/glider mod
i love the mod,its nice for parachuting and fun to glide around in valleys. the only thing i think it should be fixed is that the handles also be showed when you are in 3rd person view. but its still a nice idea and a great mod! +0% lag!
nice mod
14 PAGES OF BRIDGES?! so much things to make! i really like the mod,wonderful for medival or stone age stiled servers.
This mod is very good
This mod, is amazingly well done it adds not just dragons but soooo powerful items,tools,armor and more!
Trash code quality

Good looking and smooth annimations
One word: just perfect
idk if biofuel was used then the demoiselle was created xDGood looking, fun and realistic
Karts are moving very smoothly and looks very good! This is a pretty fun mod to use to make a race with friends xD
Soar like an eagle.
The plane model in this mod looks amazing and like advanced trains this mod will add a touch of realism to the game.
big potential
Good, but usually darky
Worked on 5.4

boring. can be used only as a modding base
playing MTG without mods is boring. veeeeeeery boring.
mobs? no. electricity (mesecons)? no. farming (with something else than boring cotton and wheat)? NO. armor? monsters? maybe at least nyan cats? NO. NO! NO!!!
meh.

Great for post apocalyptic scenery
Nice for PvP
My favourite texture pack for PvP Servers. I love it!
Great idea for creative servers
Allows admins on survival servers to give special loot for their players... like one of these.

extreamly good alt for minecraft
This is an extreamly good alternate for minecraft even if it is missing a few fetures .
one of the best mods i have ever seen
I like this mod because it is so intricate and has many features but I have found only one problem, I just cant find a dragon roost or a dragon cave.Please tell me how to find one. I also cant use a draconis steel forge even when i set it up correctly and use the coresponding dragon type and the right fuel source (dragon blood). Also i cant hatch the eggs because the old ways dont work .
Awesome nice work
love this wish they was more stuff like this it's very realistic looking which is something I'd like to see more of for vehicles
A lot of fun until a bomb kills your chest
I love this game! Escaping cruel bombing by running underground is a lot of fun! However, if you go too deep, you end up having TNT spawn undrground, which isn't any fun at all. I lost a chest full of stuff because of this bug.

Best animal mod so far
I originally used mobs_animal but it felt too basic. This mod is very good and well made. it should be included in Minetest_game
Good
It is very good, even in the start.
Adds lots of animals.
This mod adds a bunch of fun mobs, some that you wouldn't expect from a mod that provides pets.
My only complaint is that the semen collection uses the syringe, which is completely inacurate. Although in Runs defense, I really don't know how to do it better.
You can watch my review on it here, https://youtu.be/L29sXS---rQ
Simplez
A very easy way to craft different dirt with grass types without the need for a crystal shovel :)
I love it
Best mod that adds more mobs
Please 5.4 version support
Please add 5.4.1+ version support
Good but need update
This game need updates and/or QA testing. Hope it happens soon
Created shaft but lift still need one
Created shaft but elevator(lift) still need one as it is log message said
Good implementation, good art, immersive

Great
really like this mod highly recommend
woaaa
this is soo realistic!
nice!
one of my favourite texture packs! its,nostalgic,peaceful,natural. perfect for medival or industrial revolution servers.
Yum!

useful for adding additional behaviors to mobkit as well as some default items

Neat addition the the night sky
Makes my constant and unending search for ice dragons less boring and cold.
Lots of new building blocks
