📋 About This Mod
Josephoartigasia (Capybara)
(NEW SPECIES)
This mod adds a new species to the game: Josephoartigasia, genus of enormous dinomyid rodent from the Early Pliocene to Early Pleistocene of Uruguay. Josephoartigasia is named after Uruguayan national hero José Artigas. It contains two species: J. magna described in 1966 by a left mandible, and J. monesi described in 2008 by a practically complete skull. Both are reported from the San José Member of the Raigón Formation by the Barrancas de San Gregorio along the shores of Kiyú beach. It's estimated that it had a full body length of 262. 8 cm, and a and a weight of about 500 kg.
This is a "New Species" mod, this means that it doesn't repleace any creatures from your game, it adds a whole new one!

DISCLAIMER:
If you open the species on the species viewer, please restart the game before loading any saves. If you don't do this, the game will most likely break. This is a common bug with New Species sadly.
New Species for now are highly experimental, and they may have bugs or issues that can't be fixed, or that will take some time to do so. This one is safe to use, but some animations when it fights and is hunted don't work properly, so take that in mind when taking screenshots or making any type of video or content with it. If they can be fixed in the future, they will be fixed.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid community traction with 236 endorsements and 13.6k downloads.
- Adds a brand-new species instead of reskinning an existing one, so you get fresh content.
- Last updated in August 2023, so it's relatively recent for a mod.
⚠️ Cons
- It's purely cosmetic—no new gameplay mechanics or behaviors.
- Only one species added, so it's a small content drop.
- Potential compatibility issues with other mods that alter the same dinosaur roster or spawn tables.
For dinosaur game players who want to expand their creature collection with a new, visually distinct species. If you're into collecting or showcasing new prehistoric life, this is a nice addition. Skip if you're looking for gameplay overhauls or deeper mechanics—this is purely cosmetic.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's a cosmetic mod, use a mod manager to easily toggle it on/off without messing up your save.
- Check if the mod requires a specific game version (1.8) and make sure your game matches to avoid crashes.
- If you have other species mods, load this one after them to ensure the new species appears correctly.
