Your Feature Request / Idea
Okay so i'm currently trying to find the skins that appeal to me most in the game to display the most satisfyingly vivid, yet natural exhibits i can. I've never really played around with skins on any serious level before so this highlights a problem i already knew is bad. You have to make every single dino with every single skin and then either write down or memorise which one you like most. with 48 dinos and im sure more to come, this is a major pain.
What i suggest is actually quite simple. In the genetics and incubation menus you have pictures of the dinos you are either editing the genes of or choosing to incubate. Instead of having just the one render of the standard dino, render the dinos in each skin (in the same exact pose obviously), and simply swap the picture when a different skin pattern is chosen by the player, both in the gene menu and in the incubation menu.
That's it! Would make for a glorious quality of life improvement and shouldn't be all too much work if you still have your camera presets and animation poses still saved for the dino pic renders.
Part of me thinks that this was already intended as the system seems very much set up for it and i actually expected it when i first saw the menus, but it may have been cut due to time constraints and Universal pushing for release, but thats understandable, given the peculiar situation this game found itself in, having to meet a movie release deadline. Bit unfair to the game if you ask me, but that's on Universal.
