[slate widget]

even if the setting stops working, it just updates, doesn't delete items or anything.

[last sedge]

playing with stack mods is asking for stuff to go wrong

[slate widget]

especially with new DLC.

in ASA ext, lost colony, and ASE gen2. I've heard of element having issues. its very common
thats just element and when I hear about it lol.

[loud breach]

the stacking mod I'm using has an active mod author, in fact, they were ready for Lost Colony that they even updated the mod page before the mod itself

thier stacking mod is even Genesis 1 and 2 ready

so I'm willing to take the risk knowing that it's on the hand of an active player and not just another lazy mod author

[slate widget]

its only as ready as it can be.
the devkit wasn't avaliable to fix specific lost colony issues.

[drowsy thistle]

Building a big base with some cosmetic structures so would it be best to just build it out of thatch to save myself the trouble of having to farm a lot of other resources

[last sedge]

a solid moth of wait

[slate widget]

yeah, active modders are gonna be better. but if they leave then all your stuff is gone.

anything it changes obviously

[marble sky]

What's the mod?

[slate widget]

make sure dinos in the area can't damage it.

[drowsy thistle]

Yeah my structure dmg is off

[slate widget]

then yeah lol.
its just structure damage and decay to worry about except looks.
I guess adobe/metal have the temp changes on scorched

[drowsy thistle]

is there decay on a pve server? If so could I just turn it off

[last sedge]

yeah, and yeah

[slate widget]

is it not defaulted to off 🤔

[last sedge]

let me check

[loud breach]

just to be clear, the concerns that were mentioned are all valid and true, I personally decided to use the mod on all my servers because I like the mod author and how active they are compared the other stacking mod that I will not name

[slate widget]

I haven't changed those settings since aberration ASE 😂 been using and updating the same ini.

[loud breach]

so use at your own caution

[drowsy thistle]

I js checked and I guess I turned it off whenever

[last sedge]

both
DisableDinoDecayPvE and DisableStructureDecayPvE are listed with default false, i assume not

[drowsy thistle]

or it was always off idk

[loud breach]

@marble sky Bober Stacks, please make backup of your server just incase ya want to revert back

[marble sky]

I completely agree with what you said but I meant the mod you are currently using. I would love to give another stacking mod a try

[slate widget]

why are the PvP ones the opposite PvPDinoDecay and PvPStructureDecay

[loud breach]

yeah, I'm aware and fully prepared to uninstall the mod and recover all my items if the situation calls for it

[slate widget]

PvE gotta enable to disable. PvP gotta enable to enable.

[last sedge]

🤣

[slate widget]

I will never understand why they do settings like that lol.

[last sedge]

priceless, completly honest, making a convention then away later doing it again diff is such a common thing for me

[loud breach]

disable Prevent Hibernation 🙃

[slate widget]

I get why both ways make sense but why do they switch back and forth 😂

[loud breach]

Bober Stacks, it adds custom texture sfor some stuff that use the same exact ones like Rare and Common Mushrooms, allow Element to be transferred directly, no need to craft then uncraft like TG and best of all, the mod author is active and actually play the game

[slate widget]

I guess they want to have the default being false? but even thats not consistant.

[loud breach]

not consistent
Wildcard motto basically

[last sedge]

most coders

[loud breach]

the only thing they're consistent at is when they announce a release date then delay it anyways

[last sedge]

normal in big temps with people doing stuff at different points

[marble sky]

Thank you so much for that info..... I like the author is active

[last sedge]

not even that, they have it some, few, but they have

[rotund zodiac]

any problem with gloon tame?

[loud breach]

no, the taming process got buffed actually

[rotund zodiac]

i shot in your eyes but he dont fall

[loud breach]

how many times did ya shoot it?

[rotund zodiac]

10 times

[loud breach]

did ya clear all the revenants around it?

[rotund zodiac]

or more, i shot them multiple times, but he dont fall..

[gritty arrow]

Am I able to use steamCMD to host a server for my Xbox? I’ve seen people they they have but I can’t figure out how. I think the server I made was for steam

[rotund zodiac]

the server with SteamCMD u have put -crossplay to used in all platform

sorry my bad english, im from brazil LOL

[rotund zodiac]

yes, multiple times...

[gritty arrow]

Where do I add the cross play?

[last sedge]

in the server launch parameters

[slate widget]

you shouldn't need it.

[rotund zodiac]

so u can't do some steps... u create a launch server?

[slate widget]

that was for ASE epic to steam anyway.

ASA uses -ServerPlatform

https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Server_configuration#:~:text=-ServerPlatform%3D<plat1>[%2B<plat2>[...]]

[gritty arrow]

This is my first time making a server. Would I add it to the bat file?

[rotund zodiac]

yes...

in the launch game

[gritty arrow]

Just add a -crossplay line to it?

[slate widget]

the -crossplay arg was for ASE. it won't do anything for ASA.
ASA is defaulted to crossplay and uses the -ServerPlatform arg

[loud breach]

on Single Player?

[faint flax]

would 30k hp and rest into melee on a couple ossidons be good enough for alpha LK? don't need them to live just kill the 1st phase

[gritty arrow]

So I add -serverplatform after the server details?

Wait, am I even reading this right?

[slate widget]

no, you only need to use it when you want to limit platforms as it defaults to allow all.

[gritty arrow]

It defaults to crossplay? You might have to explain this to me like im a baby.

[slate widget]

-ServerPlatform=PC or -ServerPlatform=PC+XSX+PS5
like these. first one blocks all but steam(not sure on epic)
second one blocks PC xbox.

[slate widget]

just ignore it. its will only matter for public servers that don't want a platform to play.
xbox and steam can join a server without it.

[gritty arrow]

So I should be set to join my server now? I already have the bat file set up with the server info

[rugged carbon]

yall think 26k 700% damage is good for 19 rexes on alpha broodmother

[last sedge]

not

if those are leveld stats

[slate widget]

probably.
port-forwarding/LAN can cause some issues depending on setup.

[rugged carbon]

what should i aim for

[last sedge]

40k and 900 melee

[gritty arrow]

I’ll see if I can join in. Thanks for the help

[rugged carbon]

dang

[remote leaf]

It doesnt stacking some things. Believe me I did the ini trick and it wouldn't stack prome meat on rag for some reason

[slate widget]

probably 1 letter or space off.

[last sedge]

It does

It does work on any map, items that have a 1 stack size aren't affect by the global stack size, they need their own line

[faint flax]

oh yay another update for console and wonder what this one is for 😓

[remote leaf]

Nope It was the same exact code I used for all my other servers and it just didnt stack on rag. I think ots the way is coded or something cuz others I know have the same issue

[remote leaf]

No update for me but im on ps5

[loud breach]

without too much spoilers, there's a flamethrower dude but other than that, yeah, it should be enough

ya might want to bring a pig for healing

[faint flax]

not too worried about those

have had one ossidon be enough and shrug off a flamethrower dude plus i got numb+vampiric on all of em

[loud breach]

what's the saddle armor?

[loud breach]

man been grinding 💀

[rugged carbon]

i think 60

[faint flax]

other then trying to tame a aureliax didn't have much else to do other then prep for boss

[rugged carbon]

also is it true that overseer does not consume tribute because then i will try to do a different difficulty first

[loud breach]

can ya bring an Aureliax to the boss fight?

[faint flax]

dunno but it only LC thing ain't tamed yet

[loud breach]

it does consume tribute but regardless, ya should do the Alpha difficulty, it's not worth wasting time for Gamma and Beta

[rugged carbon]

ok then i will have to breed the rexss

[loud breach]

good luck getting your Rexes to the boss fight

[abstract slate]

Anyone know lc transfer date?

[loud breach]

their turn radius is atrocious

[faint flax]

that's what the convoy setup is for

[loud breach]

most likely around March because that's when the temporary servers expire

[faint flax]

february 19th or so actually

[loud breach]

not worth it, especially if ya don't just cheese it with a Carcha

[abstract slate]

Good to know

[faint flax]

was worth it for me to keep tames from bunching up and pushing each other off into lava 🤷

[loud breach]

is that so? I've been watching Raasclark and I remember seeing that his temporary server expires at March 2nd

[faint flax]

it'd prob be around there but tbh who knows with that stuff these days

[dim fossil]

Anyone know the tribe on scorched earth 5510 name last of us if u could have them contact me my character got glitched into their base plz and thank you

[frosty loom]

Anytime I equip my drakeling I can use one of its abilities one singular time before having to put it away and pull it back out again…. I’ve spawned one in and tamed one… same issue either way. However my server friend can use them just fine. What gives?

[loud breach]

do ya happen to have purchased the Bob Tall Tales dlc?

[fallen night]

😂

[rotund zodiac]

With great difficulty and many attempts, I managed to catch it.

thanks for the help

[loud breach]

let's goooo!

[ripe bone]

Bro they took down the servers everyday this week 😂

[plush patio]

Ooh those some nice patch notes!

[loud breach]

I still don't like their increasing usage of "potential fix"

[ripe bone]

Hopefully the crash fix is soild 😂

[loud breach]

be prepared for another patch in a few days

there's one that's supposed to fix the Cryohospital reduce mating cooldown glitching

[ripe bone]

I honestly think the last 3 days they went down 😂 but I wouldn’t doubt it

[ocean axle]

Does this game still require you to put all your loot on a tame and force you to respawn after beating a boss and watching the cutscene?

[loud breach]

yep

unless ya like losing your stuff and possibly your character

[ocean axle]

Very cool. What an epic reward. I'm glad they kept this feature for a whole entire decade.

[cold umbra]

laughs in autojoin feature

[loud breach]

well, at least ya are one of the few elite that know about it and take precautions unlike the majority

they think they can finish the map without getting Ark'd one last time 😂

[cold umbra]

If they fixed all that stuff people would yearn for an ark classic version anyway

[ocean axle]

Lmao, it is so Ark, you're right. Never change wildcard. I hope Ark 2 keeps this gameplay as a throwback to ark 1.

[hearty sable]

Guys what’s the best map to start over again and make a base in. My friend and are I level 100+ but we just started playing again after 5 months

[sacred vector]

As a compulsive builder, will there be a update that adds additional greenhouse structures? Like quarter greenhouse walls?

[ocean axle]

Probably Rag or Val

[cold umbra]

Val probly has easier loot drops maybe?

[sacred vector]

Val is great to start on. Plenty of building space and easy access to mutton.

[hearty sable]

In PvP tho?

[clever loom]

ext or center

[loud breach]

upvote for Center

second best map for metal, dunky for president

[cold umbra]

Wait what's better than dunky metal on centre?

[sacred vector]

Well it's challenging

[clever loom]

legit nothing lol, nothing will beat that

[loud breach]

Double Anky using Karkinos on Aberration

[cold umbra]

Ahh

[loud breach]

Anky has 85% metal reduction compared to Dunky 50%

so ya can carry a lot more metals before heading back

[cold umbra]

I only have regular karks haha maybe I'll give it a try with baddass ones

[frosty loom]

Yes

[hearty sable]

What about ragnarok

[clever loom]

dunky more easy imo, have a friend on a teksuit plus the abundance of metal on ocean floor, i easily capped a dedi in 30 minutes

[loud breach]

vanilla Drakeling?

[clever loom]

easy map youll just have to travel far for mats

[obtuse holly]

when is wipe for small tribes

[clever loom]

when ark 2 releases

[loud breach]

Tek Transmitter for the win 😎

[clever loom]

yupp, it sucks having to transfer back and forth to retrieve metal from the dedi tho

[cold umbra]

A friend built the one I use such a good builder

[sacred vector]

Rag is also a good map to start on

[loud breach]

not on console ya shouldn't, the map is too big especially with mods mixed in

so unless ya like crashing and eventual save file corruption, stay away from it

[frosty loom]

Yeah. I uninstalled all my in game mods, uninstalled the game itself, then reinstalled just the game (with bobs) and it still only lets me use 1 attack of any kind before putting it away and then equipping it again to use it again.

I see other people have this issue on Reddit but I can’t for the life of me see if anyone was able to resolve it in anyway

[cosmic galleon]

Hi guuuys! Anyone know any solve methode for this? (Unoficial, no admin)
I completed all my 3 lost colony milestones, but cant go for the next (12/15) im literally stucked there…

[loud breach]

why no Admin?

[loud breach]

try dragging the Drakeling Weapon to your hotbar and use it from there, see if it still does that

[cosmic galleon]

There is no admin command for it, only what admins can use on themselfes, and its a big server, the admins refuse to give admin rights for this matter(understandabble)

[loud breach]

have ya tried consuming a mind wipe? I don't think that will fix it but it's worth a shot

[cosmic galleon]

Yep, already did

[loud breach]

then I'm afraid that ya will have to wait until a patch address this

[sturdy heath]

Did you die? Death fix’s a lot

[cosmic galleon]

Maaaany times

Thanks for the help, i will wait for the fix! +one more question:
any other ps5 users crashing ALWAYS in lost colony city?

Im crashing like every 2min and average 20min every other place

[loud breach]

yep, known issue

[cosmic galleon]

Grass turned off, clouds, fog too, performance mode… tryed everything :”D

[loud breach]

the NPC in the city + the structures are not console friendly

even on the PS5 Pro, I had to turn off the NPC from spawning in the City to not crash by simply looking at the city

[cosmic galleon]

Wow

[loud breach]

this is why NPC don't spawn in Single Player, at least on PS5

my friend that plays on the regular PS5 still crashes when they enter the city

[cosmic galleon]

I see.. what you think, the unreal engine update will solve this?

[cosmic galleon]

Same here

[remote leaf]

Im on ps5 i crash but not that often

[loud breach]

no

I've already gave up on Lost Colony

I'm gonna attempt to get enough Crimson Sigils to do the Alpha and Gamma boss, finish it then leave this miserable map

[cosmic galleon]

Not a bad plan

[loud breach]

Genesis 1 can't come any sooner! my friend who got me hooked to the game got me hyped up

[cosmic galleon]

My mates collecting the sigils, and im just planning to survive it without crash

[cosmic galleon]

Do u think that will be better?

[loud breach]

teleporting into the boss fight will probably crash your game too

[heavy hamlet]

What’s the issue with my cosmetics not showing but eventually over 5~ min they populate in my cosmetics tab,

[loud breach]

absolutely not but at least, ya won't be paying for it unlike S#1t Colony

[cosmic galleon]

Fact

[loud breach]

same, it's been like this for a while

[heavy hamlet]

Interesting

[cosmic galleon]

The best in lost colony is the milestones.. but that one is bugged for me soo xD

[loud breach]

every patch or so, my cosmetics would Dupe themselves

I was up to 6 sets of Lost Colony skins

[cosmic galleon]

Every time i log in, i “lost” all my lost colony cosmetics, but after 1-2 implant eating, its solveing itself

Try that one, its working for me

[heavy hamlet]

I see, was just wondering due to me just finishing a major build for my series and the cosmetic skins not rendering in right away on the structure

[loud breach]

what a trash game, ya have to kill your character multiple times everytime ya login just to use a skin that ya paid for

[loud breach]

that too is a bug

[cosmic galleon]

Thats a fact, but is still in love with big lizards

[loud breach]

cosmetics has been broken for sometime now

[heavy hamlet]

I mean it happens? If you don’t like it don’t play ya know? Go try something else

I was just asking around to see if anyone else was having the same issue, or if someone had found a solution

[loud breach]

I can't, I'm too deep into it

[cosmic galleon]

The problem is not just that, but everything

[loud breach]

no other games has got me hooked like this

[cosmic galleon]

Try implant eating

[heavy hamlet]

I mean fair to complain but, not everyone else has the same
Issues you do, I have almost no problems with the game other than cosmetics everything else runs perfect

[loud breach]

I just want to finish Lost Colony so that I get some sense of my money being spent on something

[heavy hamlet]

I tried at one point it just populates over time

[heavy hamlet]

To be fair the map itself even without the boss fight is worth the money alone

[cosmic galleon]

Sadly not on ps5

[loud breach]

no it's not, try playing on Console

[heavy hamlet]

I mean you’re the ones that chose console as your game station of choice 🤣

[loud breach]

see just how bad it is

[cosmic galleon]

On a high end pc maybe, but the price is still the same

[loud breach]

I didn't chose console, I was forced to because PC prices are way too expensive

[heavy hamlet]

Consoles are usually pretty outdated within 1-3 years after their release, and ps5 and xbox are close old af right now

[cosmic galleon]

We’re still paying the same price for it, so i thing maybe it can be optimised for consoles too

[loud breach]

I even have a gaming laptop that can kinda run this game decently at 1080p but unfortunately, I spent too much on console

[heavy hamlet]

It’s easier said than done

[loud breach]

pretty much every dlc excuse for the animated skins

[cosmic galleon]

My “job” is to pay for it, not to do it

[heavy hamlet]

Trying to optimize a game made for new generation graphics and system and restricting it to last generation hardware is like putting a square into a round hole it can happen but not well haha

Mind you I said it can happen I didn’t say how haha, maybe some hammers and power tools are used but it will go

[cosmic galleon]

There is many game that did it already, like ghost of taushima, ghost of yotei, god of war.. and all of these have better graphic

[heavy hamlet]

You’re comparing apples to oranges

And saying since they are both fruit it should work is your solution

[cosmic galleon]

There is only one problem: unreal engine. But still i know its easyer and WAY cheaper than doing an ark engine

[cosmic galleon]

You know, im just kinda sad that my hypes where up, and spend a LOT of money on this game, and after all this, its still not working in most of the time

[remote leaf]

Hasn't crashed mine and ive done it 3x

[heavy hamlet]

Ok so here’s a simplistic breakdown of why your logic doesn’t work when comparing games like god of war and ark

[cosmic galleon]

Aaaaa some good news

[ripe bone]

Does it skip a little when clicking on structures in inventory to place or is it just me 😂

[cosmic galleon]

I know, god of war was MADE for ps4&5

[heavy hamlet]

As of February 2, 2026, Sony Group Corporation has a market capitalization (net worth) of approximately $131.83 billion to $133.78 billion USD. They are the parent company and the company that pours money into that game where as snail Snail Inc.'s (SNAL) net worth, typically measured by market capitalization, is around $27 million USD and snail refuses to put money back into the game but even if snail did the discrepancy in budgets is insane!

[heavy hamlet]

Also yes it’s specifically made with the ps specs in mind

[cosmic galleon]

Yep, i already tryed it on pc too before, but my 3050 6gb didnt stand a chance xD

[heavy hamlet]

That’s why anytime someone compares Ark to any game with budgets 10x the size I laugh, it’s a joke in terms of comparison

[cosmic galleon]

And low graph 25fps is just not for me i guess

[remote leaf]

Same

[heavy hamlet]

Also not trying to argue just proving a point of you can’t compare 2 things that are not even close and say well it should work because

[cosmic galleon]

And what do you think about the ase aquatica dlc?

[heavy hamlet]

Made by a completely different company only supported budget wise by snail to completely
Flop

[loud breach]

ya can't use it anyways because number 1 step to play ASE is to switch to Pre-Aquatica

[remote leaf]

The map is just one part. Theres lots that come with the dlc that doesn't include the map

[cosmic galleon]

Same for me

[remote leaf]

Definitely

[remote leaf]

I do

[cosmic galleon]

Good for you i guess if its working for u xD

[remote leaf]

I have a ps5 and it runs decent

[heavy hamlet]

Oh I know it can run decent I know someone who exclusively plays on ps5

[cosmic galleon]

My hopes are kinda big right now, because of the last line of the patch notes🥹

But its just server patch, so i dont know

[misty turtle]

hope in ark will only bring pain and suffee

[remote leaf]

Lmao I dont think u quite understand what an open world sandbox game does to ur system. And no i dont agree that they have better graphics. Maybe before on ase but asa graphics are insane.

[whole marten]

That' mean

[misty turtle]

that's fact

[heavy hamlet]

I pretty much summed it up perfect earlier the comparisons don’t work when the fruits are different

[cosmic galleon]

Thats a cap, did you played ghost of yotei? I know its “apple and orange” but compare that two in graphic.. (yes i know, not the same budget, but that is not the point here)

[remote leaf]

I won't guarantee it won't but theyre fixing more and more crashes so hopefully itll work for everyone

[misty turtle]

should wait for gen1 come then start play lc

[remote leaf]

So....

[cosmic galleon]

And after watching these two, please say that ase have a better graphics again please🥹

[remote leaf]

Exactly

[remote leaf]

Yup it definitely does. I still crash but not as much as I did at launch. I can atleast do missions without crashing in the city

[jaunty marten]

anyone want to play im kinda new but not that new

pc

[cosmic galleon]

I am jealous

[remote leaf]

Server issues are the biggest problem and usually are accompanied by a title update that'll probably drop tm or Wednesday

[remote leaf]

Yes u did

[remote leaf]

Yes ive played it. Graphics are good but ark is king imo. You're free to disagree but its my opinion

[shut umbra]

Anyone trying to run forest titan on 5885?

[remote leaf]

I never said ase has better graphics. I said asa does

[winged plover]

Has anyone tried using aureliax for outposts?

[jaunty marten]

does any one want to play im board

[remote leaf]

No i use ossidons

[supple notch]

Areliax would probably get shredded before even making it to the outpost from the turrets, it has bad damage and not a ton of health, as well as it (probably) taking flyer damage which will kill it even faster

Something like ossidons or Maybe rexes would be wayyy better for them

[winged plover]

4 reapers at each opening and i don't have any problems, I just want to mix it up a little

I meant defense outposts

[flint saddle]

there's a patch for modded trait support before there's a fix for drakeling hoard keys just not working unless you have btt

[jaunty marten]

does anyone want to play pvp

[fading ice]

it also has graphics for the PS4, and tiny, sparse environments

look at black myth, it runs way better than ark while using the same engine and a lot of the same fancy tech.. because the maps are tiny and static

[oak rune]

So, for the last 2 weeks I’ve been crashing when I’ve been trying to open the creature tab in the terminal. Anyone know why??

[long bridge]

Does anyone else have a problem downloading their survivor onto official it just crashes to the home screen every time

[fading cipher]

If I see one more revenant bronto I'm gonna hurl.

🤮

[whole marten]

I was trying to get a tame leveled to max level for the achievement. Got 59 level up out of 88 so I thought I was on my way. But checked needed exp!!! I now have 225,000 and needed is 22,213,960. So I have about 1% of the total EXP I need. I give up!!!!!

[mighty juniper]

Is there a cave I can bring my megatherium into on the island? A lot of the caves are too small and require smaller tames

[rugged carbon]

i feel like none can fit megatherium in the entrance

however you can use cryopod to get it in some

[remote leaf]

Its working for me. I bet its a publishing issue with Xbox again

[rugged carbon]

perhaps snow cave, swamp, or lower south

bound to be issues with a bigger mount tho

[remote leaf]

Take out the legs

[frosty loom]

Still the same. :/

[remote leaf]

Go find and kill a titanosaur you'll level up quick. You also might die but.... lol

[rugged carbon]

whats the best tame to kill a titanosaur with

easiest rather

[remote leaf]

Something with lots of health and lots of melee probably a group of rexes or megatheriums. It deals a lot of dmg and has a ton of health. But me and my tribe got like 35 lvls doing that so....

Think of it like a boss cuz it pretty much is

[rugged carbon]

alr i have an old army of rex i dont need anymore so ill send them to defeat the local titanosaur cuz i do want that achievement

[remote leaf]

Lol sounds good good luck

[misty turtle]

i get a thyla with good saddle?

[remote leaf]

That'll work too. The bleed will b good tho id use at least 3 or 4

[misty turtle]

if you have tribemate yeah but if no not even worth it

rather have like 3-4 of them in cryopod so you can change new one out if old one low health

im pretty sure the bleed not stack so yeah

[remote leaf]

Yeah that might work

Just make sure that health is goid and you got a good saddle

[misty turtle]

or find a good spot where it cant hit you

[torn stratus]

have the crashes on LC been fixed on ps5? haven't been on it in a good few days so just wanted to ask :/

[gentle latch]

who even ask this ? "Redesigned the Lost Queen’s Recovery Energy Beam gameplay"

[mighty agate]

Unofficial server my friend logs in and all dinos are set to alliance and have blue names can't ride them any fixes

On PC

[shut umbra]

Anyone know the easiest way to kill the desert titan on asa?

[lyric iris]

when are neophytes getting nerfed? lv 1s should not kill me with cap flak & a cap pump, why do they get mate boost?? spent 2 hours taming an aureliax for nothing. Love having to wait for servers to open up so I can bring capped carchars to do anything significant on LC.

[remote leaf]

I've been playing ans i haven't crashed as much. But some are reporting they are still crashing so....

[empty hollow]

Is transfers open for lost colony on small tribes?

[remote leaf]

They dont need to b nerfed u just need to get better lol

[lyric iris]

How? I had cap gear & brews, I had everything needed to do it but apparently they’re grossly op for no reason.

[remote leaf]

Hmmmm apparently not cuz i have no problem killing them with an ascendant tek sword. Easy as pie

[lyric iris]

very helpful…

need full cap tek to get a lv 10 aureliax i guess lmao

[plush mist]

Anyone know if a. custom cosmetics and b. ascension are working properly yet?

[remote leaf]

No u need to get a tek sword and increase your melee so u can kill the neophyte ascendant tek sword can b found in dragon hoard chests. I highly reccomend it. Even better is a cursed one if you can get the red element. Even better is tek spear but if youre struggling against a neophyte I know there's no way you beat the lost queen to get the tek spear. So...... just lvl up your melee and get the ascendant tek sword

[remote leaf]

Working for me

[plush mist]

Thank you

[remote leaf]

Np I cant guarantee it works for everyone but its working for me so......

[plush mist]

That's all I can ask haha

[edgy birch]

Ascending is hit or miss. Some saying yes, some no still

[plush mist]

Hmm okay thank you. I'm on singleplayer so at the very least I can back everything up beforehand just in case

[edgy birch]

Oh yeah, that's hella better. Little to no risk that you can't easily get back.

[plush mist]

exactly! just time 😭

[agile bone]

Crashed and cannot get back on, I’m on Xbox x and husband on PS5, both of us can not log in :/ Xbox won’t even show servers (all maps say zero) and his won’t connect to join

[lyric iris]

Sorry I work full time & play official pve solo, even the sweat tribes are struggling to get LC bosses done due to poor spawns & major glitches during the boss fight. Again, I will wait for server openings & bring over my 3k melee carchars.

[remote leaf]

I play official as well and have a full-time job. All I did is mind wipe and I put a bunch in health and melee so that I could kill the neophytes and here's a bit of a help for u. You cant use tames so...

Can't use them on the neophytes or the queen

[lyric iris]

Thyla bleed works so would cap melee deinosuchus gigabite lmao

[long bridge]

So I I submitted a ticket and it said solved but it has not been solved and I have an email saying to wait one to two business days. I’m confused on if they’re saying that they’re not helping me or I need to wait for a response from them.

Anyone submitted a ticket before

[lyric iris]

wait for a response, ticket response times have always been long

since when? there's been nothing in the patchnotes about fixing drakeling not working if you dont own btt

[runic ore]

when valentine event usually starts and when ends?

[last sedge]

Mid Feb to late feb

[wheat pier]

What did the crash fix, fix? I was hoping it was inventory crashing fix… nope 👎

[hoary canyon]

Nobody iknows cause theyr not very transparant with any patch notes leaving users questioning. This is the whole reason why I complain about theyr method of doing patch notes. Not only do patch notes sometimes not even get posted, the lack of information is a huge problem too.

[bold dock]

if wer're lucky its one of the things dupers used to crash servers

[wheat pier]

I just wish this is something they will look into and fix, it may not be an issue for pc but it’s definitely an issue for me on our servers since getting servers on ark ascended. First it was the invisible inventory item glitch, now on a completely different new server it’s crashing upon exiting and opening your character inventory or inventory of storage, anything that has an inventory you can access, Bam your whole game crashes and boots you off the server… I don’t know if anybody on pc gets this, but for console with supported mods, it does this a lot. And I’m very certain it’s not a mod issue or a server host issue, I think it’s an ark issue and the only people that can fix it is the devs themselves…

[hoary canyon]

I never had crashes due to inventory on PC but I only play ASA since december.

[bold dock]

inventory crashes are 99% a console thing

[nimble dew]

Any one know where to find doedicurus in island? I can’t find it, even the primate scanner can’t find it

Is there a faster way for daeodons food bar to go up other than manual feeding

[bold dock]

fill it with meat, go out of render, come back, food will be full

[nimble dew]

Search there for 3 day in game can’t even find one also primitive gene scanner can’t find it

[warped kayak]

Oh okay sweet ty!

[hoary canyon]

Are you on a private server/singleplayer?

[bold dock]

forget gene scanner or dino finder mods in singleplayer,

[hoary canyon]

If so you can do destroywilddinos

@dim tiger -preventhibernation in steam or for console prevent hibernation mod helps.\

[nimble dew]

Will try it

[sinful canyon]

does anyone know why it doesnt let me join this server i played a couple months ago on smalls? i keeps saying refresh instead of join

[nimble dew]

It not work in single player?

I just find one lvl 145 by scanner now 😓

[bold dock]

no, singleplayer can only detect stuff in your proximity or where you already been

[hoary canyon]

-preventhibernation still helps with it as a steam parameter. You just need to activate the area's.

[bold dock]

never worked for me in singleplayer

[hoary canyon]

I am using Der Dino Finder all the time

[trail shell]

it could be a mod issue? altho, if you tested it on a fresh game with no mods, ofc its not mods. there are some patches that mention inventory fixes but the main one i saw was only for steam/egs. they may have just not re-posted when it was rolled out for console, tho. i haven't seen anyone still reporting that issue for a while now and altho thats not the best way to deduce it's no longer an issue, it does point to it not being a consistent issue across the same platform(s). if its not, then the cause is more likely to be an outside factor. also, with it not being a consistent issue, its very hard for the devs to even begin to determine the cause, let alone find a fix

[wheat pier]

I understand that, but I do know it hasnt been fixed for console as I went on to check once the patches had been released and I am still getting the inventory crashes. I have a private server running mods, But the question is does anybody here run an ark console server with mods, I'd love to compare mods that people have on their server too see if any of the mods im using on console they also have issues with or have had issues with.

Ive even thought, maybe its not mods maybe its not the game... Maybe its the server host im running the server with for ps5 which is nitrado, but unfortunately Im not going to be able to solve my issue if I dont have anybody to check mods with who also has a console server with mods.

[grim coral]

I would remove all mods first then install one and see if issue occurs. No crash install another and so on. Def sounds like a mod issue

[brittle zodiac]

how do i make a new character but stay in the same tribe and keep the boss blueprints? on ase

[austere aurora]

You dont unless a admin helps

[brittle zodiac]

im on singleplayer

[loud breach]

must be related to the Drakelings getting seperated from Lost Colony and becoming thier own dlc, I think ya have to wait until that's done

[loud breach]

if ya have Bob Tales purchased, the Bladehive can melt it but otherwise, get a Dreadnought on top of it

[loud breach]

utilize the Holo grenade, I never lost a single HP both on my player and the egg with their, I just throw on then shoot and repeat

[loud breach]

then use commands

[sour tiger]

You advertise for a pve gameplay. Ive been killed by a player in a pve server. Therefor if you do not put a end to the scaming of these individual your advertising constitute fraud. I make that ticket for all the pve player Who work and dont have Time to enjoye pvp cause they have not enough Time or are anoye by Cheater. For m'y part i want full refund on ark asa and all DLC cause i know you Wont Do a thing for your pve player base i Will post this ticket and your reply on social media for transparence. thank you

[loud breach]

😂

[bold dock]

[loud breach]

seems to be a new bug that's caused by the most recent update

might have to wait until the client gets a patch?

[cedar coral]

if not on Official, you can contact the admins and have them kill your player. seems to fix the issue for a lot of people

if you’re on official though you’re screwed

[trail shell]

tbh, with asa being crossplay, i don't think console or pc specific servers exist anymore. you can make a backup of your server save file, remove all mods, and see if the issue persists. restore game with the backup. or you could just keep the backup and start a new unmodded game to play for a bit, then restore the old save later. have you thought about just hopping on another server real quick to see if its a problem there? any unofficial or official would do, i would think

[wheat pier]

if i make a backup save file, will that keep all characters and progress, all loot in base and our animals etc?

[loud breach]

there is an argument that ya can add to the launcher to make the server platform exclusive or exclude even

[winged plover]

So dollie says not to attempt the boss fight right now, huh?

[trail shell]

afaik, yes. iirc, you're on nitrado, right? their guide i read a bit ago said that's how it would work. however, it'd prob be a good idea to double check my info. i do self-hosting and i'd feel awful if you lost your save bc i'm not familiar enough with how nitrado does things

[loud breach]

there's an automatic backup function on Nitrado but I don't know how often it creates a backup or if ya can even manually initiate one

that is one of the things that I disliked about Nitrado when I tried their 3 days plan

ya can't even use arguments

[wheat pier]

At this point i dont know if its the mods i use or its the game itself or its nitrado services. It would be handy if somebody here uses console servers and also uses mods, then I can say the mods I use and see if they've used them too and had any issue with them, im just at a loss on what to do. Ive just uninstalled all my mods on my console, and the game, and going to try reinstall them all and the game to see if that stops me crashing which i highly doubt

[loud breach]

I'm on PS5 and running my own dedicated server locally

[wheat pier]

What would be handy to know is, does anybody know what ram etc a nitrado ark ascended server comes with for console without upgrades? Im certain you're supposed to have a specifc amount of ram etc for ark ascended with mods.

[loud breach]

never encountered any issues after an update

[wheat pier]

Do you use mods though?

[loud breach]

yes but I'm extremely picky about my mods

I don't just install any outdated mods

[wheat pier]

I also use custom cosmetics for buildings and my character.

[keen sail]

Is there a limit for the amount of cloners a tribe is allowed to spam? My game lags out and crashes anytime I look at the massive wall of cloners of a tribe next to me, can only play looking in 3 directions 😂

[wheat pier]

I could name the mods I do use or you could tell me yours to see if i have any of the same on our server.

i do have some mods on the server that where updated months ago.

[grim coral]

And just how were you killed? Only way is by being drowned or wilds kited to you. Always log out in a bed.b

[grim coral]

We all wish there was. But that many cloners is traders and rmters usually.

[grim coral]

Should say on nitrado site how much it comes with as base

[wheat pier]

i dont see that i have admin rights, im not the owner but im the one managing it.

[grim coral]

I didnt see it listed on website. But i also didnt log in. Its probably 128 but dont quote me

[whole marten]

Looked it up, and the Titanosaur do give a lot of xp. 80,000. But you would still need to kill lots and lots of Titanosaurus to reach max level on your tamed dino. I'm not sure if the tame you ride gets the full exp or if you share it 50/50 player/tame. But if they get the full exp it would still take 275 Titanosaurus to reach max level. And calling that quick I would say is a stretch.

[pearl drift]

Why do I crash every time I try to play on an unofficial map

[cedar coral]

are you trying to join modded servers ?

[pearl drift]

Yes

[cedar coral]

good chance that its the same issue i have dealt with in my server. due to some of the recent updates and constant changes server and client side, there have been a lot of issues going between Ark, Nitrado and CurseForge. the best and easiest fix is to contact Admins directly (if you can) and have them kill your player. you should be able to join then

you are free to try and consult the many other fixes available such as full uninstalls and reinstalls of the entire game and dlc, uninstall/reinstall of all mods, clearing of game cache and troubleshooting with your internet service, but the issue seems to be something within the code that came from ASE

[mighty juniper]

Does torch fire damage scale with melee?

[charred pasture]

Hello! Just one question, did some people lost their character today? Me and my friends just lost our characters out of nowhere, and we’re asked to create a new one (we have a cluster on Nitrado). First time experiencing this

[remote leaf]

Depends on if its 2x or not. And its probably a lot faster than most other methods. Doing osds are good too but I'm not sure its faster than a totanoda

[cobalt tangle]

Good afternoon! I lost my character who was the leader of my tribe. Can you transfer tribe leadership to another character?

[whole marten]

Unofficial server, so never has 2x exp.

[loud breach]

#character-restoration

[last sedge]

no

[cobalt tangle]

I already sent it and they couldn't bring the tribe leader back! I'd like to know if it's possible to transfer ownership of the tribe to another character!

[dry quarry]

They use to do it on Ase not sure if they do it anymore considering how busy they are

[cobalt tangle]

😿

[leaden barn]

What is the imprint meter for?

yall taking too long im asking chat gpt

[cedar coral]

didn’t know we worked for you

[remote leaf]

Are u trying to say official doesn't do 2x? Your comment was a little confusing

[red bobcat]

Right? The entitlement is unreal

[cedar coral]

on god

[brittle zodiac]

does adding points in melee add bleed damage to deinonychus on ase?

[shrewd pine]

okay so, alpha outposts still arent fixed amazing

sigils are still bugged too

and spawns from the sniper boss are awful he is in the mesh 50% of the times

[cedar coral]

bleed is fixed rate, i believe 5% of total health over 10 seconds

[loud breach]

YouTube 🤝

[loud breach]

yep but up to a certain point

I don't remember the exact percentage but I wanna say 600%

[loud breach]

Deinonychus, not Deinosuchus

[harsh forge]

Is anyone having trouble with the play as a Dino mod I know its beta

[loud breach]

yeah, frequent crashes

[harsh forge]

what about the mating part because I can't mate

[loud breach]

I haven't got to that part yet

game crashes before I can find a female

[harsh forge]

let me know if you can mate a Dino or if its just me

[loud breach]

until the mod gets like 10 more updates, I don't think I'll be using it

[harsh forge]

How long does beta normally take when modding

[austere aurora]

1 day to 10 years

some mods never get done at all

[harsh forge]

Have you tried the mating part of play as a Dino

[modern venture]

Any server I can play in that can help me

[harsh forge]

huh

[final spear]

Yay -_- I love this game. Dessert titan randomly spawned over head and randomly I timed out from the host.

[modern venture]

Im looking for a server where i can play that has people and that those people can help me get better at the game

[final spear]

All I wanted was silk

[modern venture]

I just recently downloaded the game

Im a noob

[bright girder]

Which stats on my rex should i upgrade? Also if i am to use my rex for breeding later i heard that i shouldn't level up any stats?

[loud breach]

Yes, ya don't want to level up your stats if ya don't have a Spyglass mod or have the Tek Binoculars (ASA only) unlocked

leveled up stats don't get passed anyways so for your breed pairs, it's best not to level up their stats to avoid possible confusion

[frozen mirage]

So js remember it’s base stats after taming

[loud breach]

👍

[grim coral]

Most official pve will help. Just dont ask for tames. People hate it. But many will help leatn game

[loud breach]

Just don't ask for tames

like not even a baby or egg to raise?

[young tusk]

Guys check #fanart-and-screenshots channel wtf with craft bro?

how I am supposed to craft tranq darts?

[last sedge]

Wtf

Since when that been like that?
Did u add some mod or ini or something?

[loud breach]

are ya using an auto engram unlock mod?

[young tusk]

idk Im gonna check it in singleplayer without mods

[loud breach]

ya might need to consume a Mindwipe

[last sedge]

I feel like I used them just fine recently, gonna check on my end too

[young tusk]

Yeah its mod fault

[last sedge]

Oh, which one?
Any idea?

[young tusk]

Bober Stacks 10000-90

looks like last update do that

[last sedge]

Wtf is up with stack mods these days

[loud breach]

hold up

I talked to the mod author about this yesterday actually

there was a dupe bug with shocking darts specifically

have ya tried mind wiping?

[young tusk]

still no

[loud breach]

then could ya please try to?

[young tusk]

and one more question

Why this mod dropping fps so far?

[loud breach]

are ya sure it's this mod in particular?

[young tusk]

My friend tested it rn

Without mod 40 fps, with mod 19

[loud breach]

Single Player?

[young tusk]

yeah

[loud breach]

all I can think of is that the Wildcard did something with one of the most recent patches that caused the mod to stop spawning creatures in Single Player

the mod author fixed it so creatures are spawning now

does your friend play on console?

I don't play Single Player because it's garbage but on my dedicated server, I've never encountered frame issues using Bobers 10k

[young tusk]

we both at PC

[loud breach]

prevent hibernation disabled?

[young tusk]

We using dedicated too, just checked it in single

[young tusk]

idk we dont touch this setting

[loud breach]

dedicated server hosted locally or via Nitrado?

[young tusk]

locally

[upbeat badger]

Anyone know if it was intentional for alpha revenant to not give xp to the chibi?

[young tusk]

I mean its not laggy on dedicated, just in single

[loud breach]

probably because creatures are spawning now

[loud breach]

yep, they don't give xp, not even to the player

[young tusk]

And also I used mindwipe, still craft is broken

[last sedge]

Truly more reason to not use stack mods, they messing up thing too much

[loud breach]

same for Neophytes, a Level 300 gives ya less than a Level 5 dodo

[winged plover]

When setting up sir 5rm8 for gardening, how many crops can I set a single sir 5rm8 for?

[young tusk]

they much QoL upgrade to your gameplay sooo I cant play without it

[loud breach]

are ya using an auto engram unlock mod?

[loud breach]

try Vanilla with Sprinkles

[upbeat badger]

That seems kinda wack. Wish they did. See em more than regular alpha

[last sedge]

Ini to change stack sizes and if u want weight reduction, increase weigh leveling on atuff

[loud breach]

it doesn't remap resources unlike other stack mods

[young tusk]

No

[loud breach]

probably why they didn't give the xp

[young tusk]

I dont changed anything

[loud breach]

hold up, let me boot up my server real quick

[young tusk]

I have 5 mods
Awesome Spyglass!
Awesome Teleporters!
Dino Colourizer
Upgrade Station
Bober Stacks 10000-90
thats all

I dont think they conflicting or smthng

[loud breach]

is Bober on the top of your mod list?

Stacking mods should always be on top

the mod page even says so

[young tusk]

Hmmm not sure

How to do that in .ini files?

[loud breach]

I'm assuming ya are adding mods via their id to the launcher?

[young tusk]

like write its ID first?

[loud breach]

if so, just move Bobers to the beginning

yep

[young tusk]

Ok wait a minute i try it

[loud breach]

also try picking up your Fabricator then placing it

[last sedge]

That also matter on the launch parameters in server, damn, never knew

[young tusk]

So I checked it... It was last on the ID list x.D

[loud breach]

I just crafted one, no problem or whatsoever

I didn't even have the engram unlocked and used a modded Fabricator

[young tusk]

My server is booting I will check it soon

[drifting barn]

Do you think theyll keep the gen 1 missions the same for bobs adventures new map

[young tusk]

umm

its not fixed that

[loud breach]

did ya add the mod to your server recently or was it there from the start?

[young tusk]

from the start

[loud breach]

can ya check for me if the Gunpowder engram is unlocked?

[young tusk]

yea I learned it

[loud breach]

what about Tranq Dart and Simple Rifle Ammo?

[young tusk]

I have learned these too

[loud breach]

then I can recommend ya 3 options

(1 join the mod discord server and report the issue but I'm 90% sure it's not the mod because I literally just crafted a shocking dart without even using the engram on a modded Fabricator no less

2. look up "Remove Stacking Mods" by Farkom_Net and see if ya can get the items unstacked then remove Bobers 🥲

3. take a screenshot of every stacked item, remove Bobers 🥲 then cheat them in via commands or mods like Gaia Commands and Awesome ARK Tools

Regardless of ya chose 2 or 3, I recommend looking into Vanilla with Sprinkles, it allows ya to have select a stacking preset which 10k 90% is one of them then apply that to your world without remapping anything meaning that it won't cause issues with future updates and if ya wish to uninstall the mod later down the road, ya can simply split all your stacked items into vanilla (for example, 10k Metal to 300 stacks) then safely remove the mod

[compact parrot]

Day#6 of complaining about how premium mods are privileged dynamic downloads for not being able to be removed individually from the client's Installed Mods tab when they've never purchased it.
Where's that Uninstall button next to the Purchase button, WC?

[young tusk]

about 1), I wish you have that engram unlocked, bcs craft broken in engrams inventory list

[young tusk]

so tek replicator have same bug

[loud breach]

Ok, let me try that in Single Player

I really hate using engram points, I spawn in 99% of engrams as Blueprints

[oak cedar]

what did you expect from wc just buy it then it will uninstall on its own every so often requiring you to log out and reinstall it

[compact parrot]

I'm not buying slop thumbnail mods thanks

[oak cedar]

right over your head lol

[loud breach]

@young tusk I see the issue 🙃, used a pull mod so I didn't notice this

[compact parrot]

No I understood. I'm just taking this seriously as it's space on the drive, because the files aren't removable unless going through folder hell

[young tusk]

I still not gonna change stack mod, bcs its best in my opinion

[loud breach]

no worries, I'll report it to the mod author

[oak cedar]

yeah thats the only option you got sadly

[loud breach]

my apologies for not noticing it

[compact parrot]

And the only option for console players is removing everything and spending the next couple hours of their life grabbing everything again

[young tusk]

no apologies, its ark)

[loud breach]

in the meantime, ya can just throw the materials for it then cheat it in

[young tusk]

yeah

[young tusk]

can I friend you?

[loud breach]

yeah, man, go ahead 👍

[young tusk]

thank you bro

if major tech companies get there way

Anyone else losing ~10-15fps+ when switching to third person while mounted on a dino?
First person, everything is fine

Comsidering they dont care about your internet speed. Xbox and ps will soon be stream only. And nividia more goimg ai and less gaming it will be the futture. You wont buy video cards or own a pc anymore

Enabling FSR frame gen, turning off vsync does not fix the framerate dropping below 10fps (tpv mounted) from 20-30fps (fpv mounted).

When do we think the Valentine's event will launch?

[loud breach]

after valentine is over 🙂

It was a cosmetic mod causing the issues. Timeless Federation - Timeless Shirt & Kiba cause the performance hits in third person

anyone know the best way to level on rag? trying to get to level 80 for industrial forge

[hazy compass]

Got same problem today. Just find a charge battery to transfer back
It’s better than drops

Kill Wyverns

and dispose of any low level Carchas and Gigas

Hi, does this server have Brazilian players?

[full fog]

does the lava golem still have blueprints in its inventory when killed?

[loud breach]

not on ASA, no, a loot crate will spawn nearby

[full fog]

gotcha i remember ase having both

[loud breach]

I mean, if ya have Pyromane or a Tek Suit, ya try it out but I'm definitely not touching that lava

[full fog]

i tried with graps

[loud breach]

too scary, man 😣

[full fog]

to no avail tho could not access inventory

[plain horizon]

also this is a bob question but best way to get regular eggs non fertilized?

have a male and female with an oviraptor nearby. congrats.

[faint flax]

are you on the island?

[full fog]

rag

[faint flax]

trying to get kibble?

[full fog]

no actually trying to get cs hatchery

[faint flax]

then yeah the 2 oviraptors together good plan

making sure got a male and female of various egg dinos helps

[echo mountain]

People still losing their characters?

Im scared to move maps lol

[fading ice]

it is better than it used to be, more protection in place#character-restoration works pretty well if you do it promptly

[echo mountain]

Good to know, I think ill still wait around another day but I cant much longer

[fading ice]

best time to transfer is weekday in off-hours, less chances of server crashes from load

clown time to transfer is release days and first day of events

you know which part of the techno dragonkin has the tail?

No i haven't used that yet. But. ...... ima have to check that out tonight

The way to make them spawn is to kill everything over and over again at one of their spawn locations. The best location is 62 12 around the river (takes an hour of killing to get one usually if you’re fast)

[faint flax]

if do lemme know since maybe if it goes on sale might grab

[hearty ingot]

What is faster at crafting makeshift megalab or chem bench?

[full fog]

if you have a mining drill mod active will blueprints spawn in drops?

[fading ice]

probably not. very few mods go to the effort to insert their items into existing loot

or they do it badly and only spawn in one spot/conflict with other mods

[full fog]

damn that kinda sucks

[hot zodiac]

hey guys i’m new to ark and i am changing from evolved to ascended does anyone know any unofficial severs that have auto level up and has about 25x and auto engrams and boosted stats for the humans

[fading ice]

i doubt any populated public server has that, may as well play creative mode

wtf even is "auto level up", that is not how anything works

[winged plover]

Has anyone on single player tried to beat the boss on ps5

[bright girder]

I just cryoed my creature can i throw it again immediately?

[remote leaf]

I run a cluster named Grey Paradise sounds like you might like it

[remote leaf]

Some ppl want an easier play through. Which is why made tge cluster. Mainly there to cater to those who just wanna build and chill.

[elfin elm]

Can someone Please help me out here? I got a Tapejara that keeps teleporting back to my base no matter where I am on the map on restart. Playing singleplayer. Please help me

?

My tapejara just abandoned me in the tundra

[night gull]

So does the template hammer just not work anymore

[remote leaf]

If yall think that lc boss is bugged the val boss is worse

Some how I crash in tge val boss but not lc. Its crazy

[remote leaf]

Nope it is extremely bugged. Not something I really use anymore. But....

[upbeat herald]

any clue why anky or doed doesnt farm crystal nodes?

[ocean cypress]

ankly should

[night gull]

That's unfortunate. Hope they consider making it useable again

[remote leaf]

.yeah idk. Theres a lot of issues to fix and thst one is probably not the most necessary in there opinion.

[remote leaf]

If youre on lc u can go to the bridges with a doed and get a bunch of crystal

[upbeat herald]

ragnarok

anky getting nothing doesnt show anything

[remote leaf]

Oh ok yeah isk than. I usually just use a pick on rag but. ....

[upbeat herald]

wat...

[remote leaf]

?

Wdym wat

[elfin elm]

What exactly does the Weight-Frail gene mean?

[winged plover]

@elfin elm if you remove the trait and hilight it, it will give a description of the trait. It might have to be stored in the gene storage first.

[faint flax]

@river spire these are tips recommend for doing LC outposts and they're not counting the crashes since most can suggest is saving nonstop during the grinding while in city

#1 if can get a ossidon or something like it and have good saddle on them cause they're A really strong and got good aoe on attacks and stuff and B they're tall enough to avoid you being burned by flamethrowers tho one of missions has a desmodus who likes flying nonstop which people suggest using reaper for since it's tail has ranged attack that can ground fliers

#2 don't bother doing them on the skybridges etc cause enemies can clip into building or fall off and out of bounds and mission impossible to do unless use mods or so to get around that

#3 i got a route can share in #fanart-and-screenshots which shows the route i usually took in a loop to keep hunting for them

[neat crown]

Why can't I do the alpha endboss fight on the island?

[hoary canyon]

What are you trying to use?

[neat crown]

Alpha

[hoary canyon]

You cant enter the cave or the seconth teleporter?

[neat crown]

The cave

[hoary canyon]

Check if theres a cooldown on tribute items. The only thing I can think offf

[river zenith]

Soo does anyone know how to enable automatic download

For cosmetic in servers

[icy jewel]

Why there's always an update shit on ark
Fck fck fck

[loud breach]

that's a client side setting

A dedicated server does not touch cosmetics, it simply allows them

[runic ore]

What exploit was fixed? Another cat one

[faint flax]

so far think only one of the special builds in the template like is the frontier cabin

others just feel like too much or not fully done and just feel off

[river zenith]

Oops mb

I was talking about non dedicated servers

How can I let my friends see my equipped cosmetics

[loud breach]

they have to enable dynamic download in their setting or have the mod installed as well

[river zenith]

That's the problem Idk where to find the dynamic download

[loud breach]

let me boot up my console real quick

[river zenith]

K

So what now

[loud breach]

Settings > Advanced > Disable Cosmetics Dynamic Downloading OFF

[river zenith]

Alr

It's not there

[loud breach]

if they just install the same mod, they should be able to see the cosmetic as well

[loud breach]

in the start menu, not in-game

[river zenith]

Well that would be annoying

[loud breach]

Cosmetic mods are client sided after all

without dynamic download, they won't be able to see your premium cosmetic mods I think

[river zenith]

I'd didn't find it

[loud breach]

in the main menu of the game with the stupid ads

[river zenith]

Just can I add you in discord cause I gtg

[loud breach]

top-right corner

[loud breach]

please, no

[river zenith]

I'll message you later I have an important football match

[river zenith]

Well nvm

I'll search for a solution later

[main marlin]

My adolescent Desmodus starved with bood packs in tek trough, and bloodpacks + cooked meat in Maeguana. Amazing game! What did I do wrong?

[loud breach]

how much points in the food stat that your Maeguana has if ya don't mind me asking?

[main marlin]

88+65=153

[loud breach]

according to the wiki, a very high Food Maeguana is not recommended because it'll basically feed the babies right when they're about to starve due to the high food value

sorry, it's not 100+

just very high values

of course, I might be spreading misinformation so don't take my word for granted

try using a low Food Maeguana, see if that does anything

[main marlin]

No other babies have died with it. Only Desmodus. It can handle 50 Giga babies, but not 5 Desmodus..

And don't forget that there was also a tek trough, it still has bloodpacks inside

[loud breach]

have ya tried using kibble as food?

even Basic is fine

[brittle zodiac]

im on fjordur and i want to beat the alpha dragon with the deinonychus i got 4 of them each one got 600% melee and 10k hp for tanking i got 3 magmasaurs with 50k hp each how many of each dino should i bring and would those stats be enough (on ase ofc)

[main marlin]

No, I don't want to waste kibble and I got other babies on it as well. 10+ babies, only Desmodus died, although only Desmodus has a separate tek trough with bloodpacks (for safety/additional food source, Mae is for backup). All other babies are eating from Mae.

They're just bugged.

[brittle zodiac]

u could get a snow owl or a daedon to heal them before they starve to death

[loud cedar]

Hi looking to join a pvp any suggestions?

[restive sable]

Who is playing official pvp?

[restive sable]

Fight?

[faint flax]

i mean if got BTT taming a bunch of thrall and sticking em in bio grinder can give you alot of basic kibble to use

farm easy outposts in wilds and farm xp on a drakeling at same time

[brittle zodiac]

would 4 deinonychuses with 600% melee and 10k hp and 4 magmasaurs with 50k hp each be enough for the alpha dragon? on ase

[faint flax]

no clue but bleed etc is nice on deinons

[whole marten]

Is the Electrical Prod the most useless tool/weapon in ark? Or is that the Lance?

[faint flax]

lance can at least be used for lol jousting fun

[main marlin]

For a Desmodus? Is that how you're raising yours? It's not a starving drake or wyvern and I have a slotcap of bloodpacks for them. They HAD food. And they died while I was offline. At 50-60% maturation.

[brittle zodiac]

i never had issues with desmoduses but i usually raise wyverns like that if im in early game

[faint flax]

hopping off while raising babies always risky tbh

[main marlin]

When I'm in the mood of raising babies, I do 150-200. But 5 Desmodus.. They don't wanna 🤣
Just wanted to complain (as it IS a BUG, they had food!) and maybe some clarity of what they need to not die as bloodpacks and cooked meat is not enough. I guess raw meat in Mae is a must.

[whole marten]

200 babies?? I sure hope you are on a personal server. Can't imagine the strain it puts on the server if several people do it at the same time on a server.

[azure spindle]

wrong chat

[main marlin]

Official. Tame cap is 250. You should see breeder bases.. 🤣
There are things that put way more strain on the server.

[whole marten]

I would hate to live next to your base 🙂

[simple axle]

Did ark fix crashes on ps5 using mods ? Anyone try going into city on console yet or does it crash still?

[unique moss]

where is like "the best map and location" tame a Pyro?

[indigo silo]

Hello friends. I can't find the Reaper and Basilisk alpha tributes on my server. Does anyone have all the alphas to trade?

[signal violet]

i saw a bunch wandering around on the center by the volcanic islands area

no idea if thats the best place though

[bleak quartz]

desmo are bugged if u derender them dosent matter if they have food they not gonna eat and starve same bug since ase

[main marlin]

I've claimed a big area surrounding the base, I also have bad experience with neighbours bugging me out. There is no one within render distance. The babies don't cause fps drops as much as mods. Even green Obi on Ragnarok drops my fps to like 10-20fps. My base has almost 0 mods as I like my fps being high (for this game lmao), 60 seems the highest my pc can do while keeping textures at "epic".

[pliant locust]

BTW I think desmodus are still bugged, probably. I tried breeding them ALOT when Fjordur came out, and they would always starve when unrendered. After further testing, I found out they will strictly consume packs when in render - unrendered not a chance.
The ones I’m currently breeding on ASA are fine with raw meat. And i have food capped maeguanas (254+60somwtjikg base stat, AND leveled up) no issues.
But i did have issues with cooked meat in the past, not using cooked at All anymore

(And regarding my maeguanas, ecen their food range Circle doesn’t show up anymore, so I’m pretty sure they are as overcapped and absurdly high leveled/possibly bugged as possible lmao)

[main marlin]

Yeah, I figured it's the cooked meat, which sucks. I keep raw and few lines of cooked in case raw is eaten/spoils as I like my sleep and my life doesn't revolve around Ark lol
That's why I had blood packs in trough AND in Maeguana + meat, all to try to counter them fighting over the blood pack timer.

[main marlin]

I always check for the food trough icon on babies - if the icon shows, they will eat. If doesn't, they're out of range

[harsh forge]

Does anyone know how to Mate on ark play as a Dino?

[pliant locust]

Blood packs would’ve been so convenient, especially once having high melee bats 😕
I usually don’t even bother with packs anymore at all, just stuff raw meat on troughs and salt/raw meat for maeguanas, to be safe and seemed to have worked so far

Haha yea that’s how I tell if mine are in range too, the missing circle is just something I noticed on my absurdly high (is it millions of food points now? Would have to check but totally broken high) maeguanas the circle disappeared unlike some slightly mutated ones which still show it ^^
But yea the icons appear regardless of circle or not and feeding works, should just be an example that ecen the most highly leveled maeguanas still keep babies from dying, or did for me at least for a while any many many many babies.

[harsh forge]

I'm on console and every time I try to mate as a trex it won't work do I have to put in a code

Do anyone know what to do?

[main marlin]

I don't have the meat seeds yet and I've grown to resent meat farming 🤣

[main marlin]

I sent you a dm, maybe I'll change your mind 😁

[pliant locust]

Yea no meat seeds either here 😂
But I chose the very same spot I had in ASE official already for ASA, on Center map.
There is this one island, connected to jungles via one natural bridge and right next to swamp.
There are three major paracer spawns literally less than 30 seconds of walking time away with carchar, slotcapping is so easy and fast lol.
Best breeding spot I ever found on pretty much all maps after years on official ^^

[main marlin]

Island swamp cave was awesome until they removed the overspawn. Got loot + xp + almost a slot cap of meat per each x on rates.

[pliant locust]

Yea I imagine, I was angry when they removed lvl 400 or so bugs, and the overspawn for ASA, barely any xP 😕
think that swamp base is now probs one of the best can slotcap (usually I have a weight shoulder pet for the 2.5k weight carchar for ecen more meat) too, and takes like 5-10 minutes to slot/weightcap.
And no teleportation needed etc, I hate that 😅

[echo mountain]

The overspawn was nice for frog farming

Capped poison wyverns still worth doing for pvp?

[spiral jolt]

Do you mean single player or non-dedicated?
We have a server cluster and we are also facing this problem, empty city, no NPCs anywhere.
May be a mod problem, could be the configurable cryopods? because the NPC use them too?¿?

[ashen summit]

i am on my own nitrado cluster. it worked normaly, but then suddenly it didn't anymore.

[sturdy heath]

Meanwhile our unofficial looks like they are hanging a convention in town. So full

[clear sleet]

Any idea why i crashed on the island last night on non dedi and everytimei try to log back in it crashes ? And on sp to. Incan join regular servers on the same map just not mine ? And im on Xbox s and it runs ark fine so its not that . I've been playing for 2 years and this has only been happening since lc droped. And i have that also.it happened on rag and valguero about a week ago.

[fair cedar]

Why is all the official servers showing up like there all down

[spiral jolt]

any mods installed?

[ashen summit]

Yes 9 mods

Pela Cryo Mod, Recovery Stone, Vanilla with Sprinkles and some building mods

[remote leaf]

Mine eat just fine

[spiral jolt]

Maybe is the Pela Cryo Mod, it hasn´t been updated in 5 months

[wind harbor]

ASE? They shut all Official servers down.

[remote leaf]

Pela isnt causing me any issues

[wind harbor]

If ASA check your search filters

[past iron]

How often do they give status updates on character resto?

[fair wyvern]

you won’t get a response typically, sometimes they reach out if they can’t find you. if restoration is possible your character will appear in your upload within 24 hours

[past iron]

Thanks. My friend is probably gonna quit. The server crashed, rolled back to a time where he was off server, and his character is just gone.

[little kelp]

Is anyone not being able to breed rexes? I have mating on but they are not breeding:/

[compact parrot]

Day#7 of complaining about how premium mods are privileged dynamic downloads for not being able to be removed individually from the client's Installed Mods tab when they've never purchased it.
Where's that Uninstall button next to the Purchase button, WC?

[harsh forge]

I can't even breed while playing play as a Dino

[little kelp]

That sucks. These constant updates are causing lot of problems:/

[harsh forge]

I enjoyed playing as a Dino but how on earth can I breed it says look for a male mate and when I do I can't starting breeding

[remote leaf]

Its not upto wc its a curseforge issue

[harsh forge]

who's curseforge

[compact parrot]

iirc curseforge doesn't handle ASA's client

[remote leaf]

Curseforge is sho publishes the mods

[last sedge]

the people that allow mods in ASA

[harsh forge]

so they need to fix play as a Dino

[last sedge]

no, that's the author of the mod

[compact parrot]

It's not a curseforge issue, it's a dev issue to apply a method of removing mods from someone's client

[remote leaf]

No byt they handle the store them and the platform your on. When u click on the mod page you are navigating away from ark ans going into the store which is run and operated by curseforge

[compact parrot]

Then why can we uninstall bought premium mods

[remote leaf]

Thst is upto the modder. Go to there discord and let them know

[compact parrot]

But not dynamically downloaded premium mods

[harsh forge]

What is their discord name

[compact parrot]

It's entirely "Pay to remove this mod"

[remote leaf]

Theres nothing a modder can do curseforge needs to add that button. Its not hard to do really.

[compact parrot]

No lmao. Curseforge doesn't do the coding for asa

[harsh forge]

how long does beta last for on ark my Canadian brother said 7 days and another person said 1 day to 10 years

[remote leaf]

Because there's a button curseforge put on there. But didnt add it for thid particular situation. I reccomend going to curseforge discord and telling them

[compact parrot]

Nor does curseforge have power over how the ui is for asa

[remote leaf]

It should say it on the mod page

[harsh forge]

Let me check really quick

[compact parrot]

Curseforge is third party my man

[harsh forge]

Doesn't say

[remote leaf]

The store is not controlled by wc. The store is a separate port. So it is not connected. Wc could add the button but it would so no good cuz the backend is controlled by wc. Just because you can access the store from asa main page doesnt mean its actually a part of asa. You are actually leaving the game when u go to the curseforge store.

[compact parrot]

Do your research please

[remote leaf]

Theres no determined time

[harsh forge]

How long does it normally take

[compact cliff]

I really wonder why I keep playing. PS5 crashes a lot and mods don’t work at all. Seems like I’m wasting a lot of time and paying more and more.

[remote leaf]

Understand this the curseforge store is not ark it is a separate entity its like clicking a link it takes u to a separate site.

[compact parrot]

The uninstall button is not a link

[remote leaf]

Exactly

[compact parrot]

It specifically removes files from the system
Therefor, curseforge not required

It's a dev issue, as previously stated

[remote leaf]

Thats not what I said. I said the when you click on curseforge it takes u to a different place like a link on a website. Just because we can access it from the game page doesnt mean its part of asa perse

[slate widget]

don't all dynamic downloads work that way? guess you could download and then uninstall non-premium ones tho

[slate widget]

the UI in the mod menu is very unlikely to be curseforge. there just isn't a reason for them to do it instead of wildcard.

[remote leaf]

Lmao curseforge has permissions to access storage. Its not a dev issue. Well not a wc dev issue anyway. Its curseforges store so its them thst have to fix it.

[compact parrot]

In the Installed Mods tab, if you click on a dynamically downloaded premium mod that has the Installed icon on the UI within the mod page, the only button present is Purchase (If you have not bought the mod)

[slate widget]

dynamic downloads do show in installed? thought they didn't

I don't play on officials so never noticed.

[compact parrot]

They do. And the files are present in folders

[slate widget]

then yeah, that should probably be fixed you'd need to wipe all for consoles and PC would have to find it in the files to delete.

[remote leaf]

The curseforge store is not controlled by wc. Its a store controlled by curseforge.

[compact parrot]

And that's very time consuming to the console players, in an already time consuming game

[slate widget]

the store isn't what they are talking about. they are talking about the ingame UI not having an uninstall button

[remote leaf]

Its the same for official and unofficial

[slate widget]

not if you don't have dynamic downloads on.

that has to be manually done on unofficials

[austere aurora]

thats up to mod maker

[compact parrot]

Assuming they were to search for all the mods they had previously

[full fog]

Does anyone know single player settings to make it feel like a 20x server? I have feeling I shouldn’t just change everything to 20

[remote leaf]

Yes within the curseforge store

[compact parrot]

No, I'm talking within the ASA client

[slate widget]

the ingame UI isn't the curseforge store. its just a mod menu UI.

[harsh forge]

It sucks because I want to breed my dire wolf with a male and apperantly its not working

[austere aurora]

there is a reason it is beta

[remote leaf]

Its the same. No matter if I play on official or unofficial i have to turn off dynamic download. Cuz cosmetics work on both.

[compact parrot]

This is true

[slate widget]

it does read the website to show things. but there is a reason (on PC, no idea if consoles) it opens an actual website when you click purchase.

[slate widget]

you have to set it up on unofficials. if you don't then it doesn't do anything.

[compact parrot]

Custom Cosmetics are for the most part pretty global

especially the whitelisted ones

[remote leaf]

Let me understand are u saying that u should b able to uninstall from the ui on the join server page?

[slate widget]

on unofficial when you are setting up the whitelist for custom cosmetics, you have to also setup the dynamic downloads. but you can skip that step.

[slate widget]

the mod menu ingame is the ASA client. its just reading the curseforge website for the mod info

[compact parrot]

If no whitelist is specified, you can use a custom cosmetic and force anyone within render distance to download the custom cosmetics being applied

[slate widget]

no, no whitelist will use officials list which limits a lot.

[remote leaf]

Set it up? I play on unofficial and official and there's no setup i have to do

[slate widget]

if you disable the whitelist then dynamic downloads are also disabled.

[slate widget]

because you don't host the server lol

[compact parrot]

I use a lot of cosmetics that do not specify they are whitelisted accross a bunch of servers, so there may be borked coding somewhere

[slate widget]

custom cosmetics aren't gonna be said anywhere. the whitelist isn't shown to players.

[remote leaf]

Yes u can do thst but u dont have to.

[slate widget]

the server owner would have to tell you.

[slate widget]

what

[remote leaf]

Lmao I actually host a cluster. So....

[slate widget]

if you don't setup dynamic downloads then the only choise is no dynamic downloads, or the official whitelist which has it for that stuff.

[compact parrot]

I have 2 customs in the works I can test out when they're done. One just needs the animation rigging finished and the other reduces the performance impact of the phoenix (which will come a little later in the year)

[slate widget]

then you probably ignored the setting and are using the official whitelist.

[remote leaf]

I own and run the servers on my cluster. Been running it for about 3 years

[slate widget]

neither custom cosmetics or dynamic downloads have existed that long so that doesn't really matter lol.

[remote leaf]

Most custom cosmetics are whitlisted and so I dont whitlist anything. I use as close to official setting as I can except for in game things like stats and breeding stuff

[slate widget]

then your using the official whitelist which is what I said.

[remote leaf]

Didn't ignore it perse but I just dont use it. Its easier that way. Using un-whitelisted cosmetics can cause lots of problems

[slate widget]

they really don't lol. they are cosmetics.

[remote leaf]

No it hasn't. Custom cosmetics is about 1 year or something. At least I didn't know about it till last year anyway.

[compact parrot]

Fun fact: Curseforge moderators need to approve the cosmetic, in every element such as description, screenshots, icons, and game performance.
I wouldn't be surprised if the cosmetic gets approved, it's automatically added until a problem is found

[remote leaf]

Lmao yes they do. They can cause crashes for instance

[compact parrot]

Would need dev confirmation/denial on that though

[slate widget]

the ones in the whitelist can also cause issues. especially if you are including things that are just gonna be the result of memory usage. (most likely reason a cosmetic will crash the game)
there are always exceptions but even in the whitelist there are mods that cause issues.

[remote leaf]

Yeah curseforge and wc has to approve the mod. But curseforge approval isnt very extensive. Wc is a little more but still yeah they dont do a full debug which is why when mods come out they have to do a lot of updates to fix various issues

[slate widget]

I would include those ones that are GB in size lol.

[remote leaf]

Definitely. Just thst using whitlisted ones limit the issues to an extent

[slate widget]

wouldn't be automatically added to the official whitelist as some mod authors have said they are waiting for it after being approved.

[compact parrot]

I found yesterday that the Timeless Federation shirt+kiba reduced my in-game performance by ~60% when mounted on a dino in third person view.
The QA is definitely in need of an overhaul on the modfront

[compact parrot]

That's a good observation to know

[remote leaf]

Definitely, im actually starting to learn how to make mods and yeah its really cool but Definitely has issues

[compact parrot]

I'd love to do custom audio implementations, but rip me for not having another drive slot for a 2tb+ drive
Might just get an external later down the line for it

[remote leaf]

That's what I did. I just bought an external drive. Not cheap but its what I want to do. Got lots of ideas and tired of waiting for a modder to fo it lol

[compact parrot]

I mainly need the devkit to figure out the world processing on audio to create sounds that can shine within the world, unlike Helldivers2 audio (The in-game processing really botched what the audio team has done.)

[whole marten]

So what did you guys agree on? Is there or is isn't there a way to clear/delete Dynamically Downloaded mods data from inside ARK?

[compact parrot]

For PC at this current time:

1. Spend time going through your mods folder within the installation paths and delete files
2. Uninstall all mods and spend time searching for every cosmetic you previously had
3. Buy the mod to acquire the Uninstall button

For Console at this current time:

1. Uninstall all mods and spend time searching for every cosmetic you previously had
2. Buy the mod to acquire the Uninstall button

Not much we can do that doesn't waste time, as we are at the mercy of SG and WC

Just pray we get the button

[whole marten]

I would not want to run the Devkit from an external drive. Even running if from an NVMe SSD drive is sloooow.

[compact parrot]

I play on a gtx980, slow is what I expect

[swift forge]

when ark poc wiping?

[zinc solstice]

Do fabricated crossbows or BP's drop on other maps than Lost Colony?

[compact parrot]

Yes, drakeling hoards are a great way of acquisition

[remote leaf]

There isnt

[zinc solstice]

Awsome. Thank you

[remote leaf]

Its not ideal but I run ark from an external too. Its doable as long as u got a good cpu and plenty of ram

[remote leaf]

I haven't found anything lost colony related on any other maps loot

[obtuse valve]

Anybody know what the status of Vanilla Tek Gens being fixed by Wildcard might be? game is pretty much unplayable now as turning on a Tek Gen will crash your cluster

[inner sky]

Only through Drakeling Hoards.

[elfin ravine]

Anyone know when the issue with them will be fixed? The one where it sayd you need dlc even when you have it?

[whole marten]

Lol. I fly over the redwood forest on the Island and hear a roar. I look up and see a Thyla flying about 50 meter above the tree tops. So maybe pigs don't have wings, but in Ark cats sure do!

[compact parrot]

I haven't run into that problem as I've bought all but Astraeos and the animated series cosmetics. There's a bunch of ways to try getting it to work such as

1. Uninstalling/Installing DLC (Map + Expansions Pass)
2. Logout + close program/Login to Steam
3. Full shutdown/Startup of PC
   I'm assuming you've already attempted this, but I'm also assuming you didn't attempt a full shutdown of the PC for each step in the process (tedium of troubleshooting in the most tried and true way)

My coworker however, did have that issue on Xbox. It was resolved when the LC DLC map finished downloading

[whole marten]

Also remember that you have to dance naked around the PC counter clockwise at full moon while offering a goat for it to work. (This is just a joke in case anyone thought otherwise, but just as likely to work as some of the other suggestions on this Discord).

[full fog]

Does anyone know single player settings to make it feel like a 20x server? I have feeling I shouldn’t just change everything to 20

[compact parrot]

I do not, but I'm sure there's documentation on it somewhere on the web should you not get the answers you're looking for

[whole marten]

What do you want to be 20x? Experience gain? Harvest Amounts. Breeding Times. Wild Dino Levels??????

[inner sky]

20x wild dino levels sounds hectic.

[full fog]

I’m not sure just how if you play an unofficial server that’s labeled 20x I think it’s 20x harvest but idk the other settings they change to make breeding fast and raising fast but balanced to enable imprint

[whole marten]

Sounds kinda fun, but a bit challenging!

[inner sky]

Good luck taming a level 3000 Rex and how much torpor would be needed to KO it.

[whole marten]

Most of the settings are not visible in the GUI in game. So needs editing the game.ini and gus.ini. Check out ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Server_configuration

[full fog]

I want my player stats boosted but not broken the way they word the different settings (ex. The 4 diff Dino categories is absurd and I can’t figure out which one affects the stat per point you put in)

[full fog]

Are you able to adjust the ini on console? I’ve adjusted ini in nitrado but new to single player adjustments

[river zenith]

Did anyone notice that they removed the dynamic download option?

[whole marten]

Not to my knowledge

[river zenith]

From the settings menu

[compact parrot]

Launching to check, one moment

[remote leaf]

Very very hot

[compact parrot]

What's your fps cap?

[remote leaf]

Where is your fans located

[idle sundial]

Why cant I take all from my dedi i have nothing in my inventory'

[dusky galleon]

I set it to like 40 cause I don’t rlly notice a difference past that

[dusky galleon]

Intake on the bottom I believe

[compact parrot]

I noticed a 10 degree difference between 15fps and 30fps on my gtx980

[dusky galleon]

My cpu is the issue

[compact parrot]

Try not constantly utilizing 100% gpu and it will be fine

[dusky galleon]

My cpu even runs like 30% and my gpu at like 10%

[compact parrot]

Cpu, might need a cleaning

reapply thermal paste

[dusky galleon]

Maybe, laptop isn’t exposed to much dust but I’m gonna try turning down turbo boost first

Taking it apart is sorta my last resort

[runic parcel]

I wonder if it suggests people are duping? If that is still a thing

[remote leaf]

Might b whats ur internet speed and another issue could b what region the server your using is in

[compact parrot]

I have a Intel Core i7 6700 and it sits at around 40-47C in asa

[runic parcel]

My Internet speed is 250mb/s, and EU based servers. Sometimes happens after an update, but none released today?

[elfin elm]

I found a wild creature with it and idk if it is worth expending the resources to tame it with that thing

[compact parrot]

Have you checked the trait page of the wiki?

[elfin elm]

Yeah, it doesn’t really talk about that kind of trait

[fresh fossil]

Can you have an outpost underwater and farm resources there even without tek?

[compact parrot]

The trait is mainly used if you're breeding

[runic parcel]

You have a weight capacity. Best thing to do is throw all out of your dodi and then pick all up from the floor

[whole marten]

Weight Frail means the a baby from this dino has a higher chance to inherit the lower of the weight stat from the parents. So pretty useless unless you want low weight stat.

[dusky galleon]

Issue is mines in a laptop

[runic parcel]

Not to my knowledge, unless you get an UW cave.

[fresh fossil]

Like can you still place structures and beds underwater even without tek?

[runic parcel]

Oh, yeah you can drop a vault and stuff, a bed I'm not sure but I'd think so - as long as it's on a foundation. I thought you meant a vacuum base

[compact parrot]

Have you attempted utilizing a fan pad (I'm horrible with terminology, I know) under the laptop and seeing if that helps?

[whole marten]

You can. But need to repair you scuba tank constantly. And don't go offline while down there.

[fresh fossil]

Ahh no no i'm not that advanced by now

[fresh fossil]

It would be just a outpost to farm metal but i don't have any vacuums by now so i would work with linked storages

[runic parcel]

I don't think you can have a gennie though

[fresh fossil]

ohh
