According to "There is one ornithomimid specimen that preserves calamus scars on the forearm. The van der Reest 2015 paper uses calamus width to length ratios to predict these feathers were 3 times the length of the body feathers."

Oh, I posted that because you asked if ornithomimids had flight feathers.

Sorry for not making it clear, I was just curious about it when I commented that and then before you guys responded I saw something that already answered my question.

Yes, I do.

Do you think it is 100% accurate?

Yes, just check out their website, dude, it's pretty cool.

I checked it and in fact the models are gorgeous. And they say they did a great research before making the models, but how they the developers act and how the models are say otherwise. If you search you will find out that quill marks were found on the arm bones of ornitomimosaurids, but their models show no quills. Also their T. rex shows smaller teeth than we see in actual specimens (and I am talking about the curved and serrated part of the teeth, not all the part that was out of the jaw bone... because part of that is root). Also it is overheating due to a thick coat of feathers on a large area of it's body... and the fact that it has bare legs and tail do not fix this because the tail and legs still being very muscular and heavy. Even the snout is thinner than it should.

The skull is thinner?

I am not sure about the OVERHAUL skull, but the SNOUT is thinner.

His response to your comment is pretty insulting to Saurian and the work the developers put into it....
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I kind of agree, no offense to him. I only asked about the arms out of curiousity.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I have no respect for him. I can tell he's so in denial that he has to pretend that the accurate modern research is just a bunch of science fiction mutations in order to hold onto the Dinosaur Renaissance. I admit it was a good time, but it's time to move on. Seriously...

In fact, I was planning to buy Saurian an play it and imagine all the innacuracies being mutations on a Jurassic Park like story... until I noticed how the developers act when you point an innacuracy in Saurian.

That's awesome.
About the developers, I absoulotley do not mean anything negative towards you, but I think the reason why they act that way towards you is because they put a lot of hard work into it. I know if I spent 5 weeks on a school project and then someone were to do nothing but critisize small, almost unnoticable mistakes, I would knock their ass out (in my dreams). What I'm saying is, please cut them a little slack, buddy.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
But if you take a closer look these small mistakes could give a smaller grade for you. But the fact is that Saurian is not compareble to it becuase many if the erros are clearely noticeble: the T. rex is overheating, has to small teeth, the snout is thinner than in actual specimens, the triceratops has muscles (that resemble those of cheekless theropods) where teeth should be located, the paws of the triceratops are completely different in appearence when tye skeletons show the opposite, the metatarsals of the triceratops are to long and the struthiomimus lacks quills. I know they put a lot of work on it, but the fact is that if they want to make completely accurate models, they must correct eventual mistakes (they already replaced the original T. rex model).

I never considered the Triceratops

Not to insult, but t rex does have a very thick coat of feathers. they dont look like they thermoregulate well, either. here is what feathers would accuratly look like on a t rex

I know, this comment chain was at least over a year ago and I was just pretending to agree with dovah

Alright, but I always want to deeply analize everything I can.

Sometimes (sometimes) I do too.

Alright, but if you really care about accuracy, consider doing this more often (expacially where mutations do not fit in the story). But just consider, I am not trying to force you to do anything.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I'll consider this. Thank you.

No problem.

técnicamente, no hay evidencia de que los ornitomimos o los dinosaurios avestruz tuvieran plumas

pffff comentario ridículo.
Sí la hay. Presente en varios ejemplares y sabido desde hace unos cuantos años.
