Added Info Override dll file by VND 1.1.0

Added Info Override dll File (lang660-AddedInfo-override.dll)

 

Author: VND

Credits to Jay and Fern for feedback and improvements made from the original release.

 

Compatibility: All Game Versions

 

Description: This is a .dll file that adds new information/detail to existing messages given to Blue Fang IDs. Unlike the other override .dll file - lang999, this file is not needed for any new mod.

 

The lang does complement LANG--ZBorsato.dll + Dinosaur Digs Combined Realism hack, but can be used independently.

 

Version 1.0, “lang660-PlantEra-override”, was released as part of the aforementioned hack. The file is renamed and hosted separately to allow future additions in the same vein by the author or others in the community. The .dll currently has the following feature(s):

- Add geological age range to the long-text tooltip of official land foliage that orignated in the Cretaceous or earlier. This feature was first envisioned and included by P. rex in "No Grass, Please" (NGP) but was never implemented correctly. The text is under a new format shared with the Combined Realism hack, so it is not a 1:1 reproduction of the NGP text.

Trivia: the number "660" is a reference to the K-Pg boundary 66 million years ago, marking the end of the non-avian dinosaurs. The number has to be >302 to override existing Blue Fang messages.
