The last update to my Carnivores mods, and an open letter to the Carnivores community.
My departure from the Carnivores community was sudden, and no doubt surrounded by rumors and misinformation, so I would like to set a few things straight first of all.
Prior to leaving, I did have a few disagreements with some members within the community; disagreements which, much to my shame, only led to conflict and hatred. The fandom that was once united by its shared love of the game became fractured over creative differences. But while that was one of the reasons I chose to leave the Carnivores fandom, it wasn't the only nor even the most important reason.
The past year has been difficult for many of us, for a litany of reasons, and I was no exception. I've had a lot of time to think, not just about my modding career but about my life in general, where I've been and what direction I'm going, and have arrived at the inescapable conclusion that many things about it need to be changed. That's why my main focus in life right now is to do just that; change. Change everything I was dissatisfied about, from looking for a better job to working on my own personality flaws and getting rid of harmful habits. Above all, being open about my true identity for the first time in my life, I am now almost a year into transitioning. Among all these changes, I knew it was time to move on from the Carnivores fandom as well. It was not an easy decision to make, but I do believe it's for the best.
Still, I would like it to be known that I have moved on as a friend, not an enemy. I wish to offer an olive branch to the fandom that's been a second home to me for over a decade, including to those within it with whom I've had my (in hindsight, petty) disagreements and conflicts. That's why I would like to give you all one last gift: the final official Beta releases to my three Carnivores mods, including all DLC content made for it thus far by myself and others, some new map updates, and all of my unfinished creature models. I will not post any more updates to these mods, so the rest is now up to the community. If any of you wish to try and pick up development from where I've left, use my unfinished models in any of your mods, or just play the mods and enjoy them- by all means, do so. Do as you wish! It's all yours now.
I have left a few notes where applicable, but will no longer answer any questions regarding Carnivores mods. By the time this file is published I'd have deleted everything Carnivores-related from my computer, and laid this chapter of my life to rest. Still, those of you who have me on your friends list on Discord- feel free to drop by and say hi! I wish you all the best.
Love,
P.Rex (They/Them)
Oh my...
Just today I was sad because I said "I'm going to never see those models on action, pretty sure they will be dusting themselves on Poha's PC and maybe even got deleted without seeing daylight"
And you just upload everything in a row.
I was sad when I discovered about you leaving the Saga (was a little bit disconected) but if it's for your own good, then do it. Despite everything, you just made history with most of these mods, the best ones out there gotta say. Thank you for everything Poha, wish you luck in your life.
Happy trails P.Rex, I hope you find yourself in much better circumstances in the future. Thank you for being a huge part of my childhood and inspiring me, and many others, to mod Carnivores!
What a beautiful swan song to all your efforts. Thank you so very much P.Rex for all the work you've done for the community and I'm sorry to hear you've had to endure some hard times among the community members.
Thank you so much for being a member and making a lasting impact on this community. I hope you find greatness in your life journey ahead. I don't think the modding community would be how great it is today without you!
We promise to take good care of your mods. Love ya Poha! <3
❤️
bye :)
i hope u get better soon
And that's another one lost to the sands of time and social insanity, I will still miss you and the mods you made.
Ah. One of the best mods i like.
Dang its almost been a year
almost 1 year later, we still miss you :(
You were my idol, It's sad to see such an inspiring member leave our Community. I could not be around the time you were an active member and made mods. I hope that you succeed in your goals! Goodbye.
Goodbye Poharex, Hello Keegan
It would be awsome if we could redo these games in the mee, the originals in a new light.
Yeah! I was just thinking the same thing, I wonder if someone has taken the reins of P.Rex and is finishing up his 3 Carnivores mods?
It's been a year... ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ He really had to quit?
R.I.P Poharex, You'll be remembered for your great mods... Tormer is also doing a good job, sad to see that you never met him.
July 27 2012-July 13 2021
He never made it through...
What are you talking about?
I'm not a 'He', I'm not dead, I'm actually on good terms with Tormer, and if you don't like anything I've ever done with my life aside from those Carnivores mods, quite frankly that's your loss.
I made it through, better than ever.
I Just thought you like gave up your Mod DB Carrer and never made it past 10 years on Mod DB
Well, that wasn't the case at all.
I quit modding Carnivores, but there's a lot more to me than just Carnivores mods. Honestly, I believe my best creations are yet to come. You're more than welcome to take a look on my profile (as well as on my Deviantart gallery) and see for yourself. :)
Hey, I noticed this comment was recent. I'm really new to this whole downloading mods, i just wanted to ask to see if im able to play on mac. Thank you for any help :)
yes. some mods are unplayable on mac and some mods have
a mac port.
What a fine day to see Poharex (sad he quit the Carnivores community :( )
I'm sorry to hear that your relationship with the Carnivores community went pretty bad. 😿
I hope you're doing well now, but thanks for all these amazing mods and addons you've contributed to this underappreciated series, as well as releasing everything you've made so far (including the latest versions of your three mods, I hope someone can finish them up for you).
Furthermore, I wish you the best luck in your future endeavours! 😸
Where are the new models for the Plateosaurus, Edaphosaurus, and Liliensternus that you showed back in 2018?
Did they get somehow lost or accidentally deleted, or did you give them to some other modders to animate and finish up?
Well at least we got this one last mode
no dont do that noooooooo
Good to have you back! Looking forward to your current project!
Whats with the They/Them you can't be multiple people
does he know?
