Where will you find dimetradon on scoch earth
Idk, no one said than he/she was on scorched, and you can transfer it
Why wouldn't u transfer the egg
Idk, do as you want, I'm just saying
Instead of tameing a useless Dion which will use so much narcotics
"useless" it's useless for you
Ya
It is useless it will take 3 of them to make up for one ac
And they are not that easy to find
It can be usefull at the beginning of the game when you have nothing, not even enough to make a single ac and just go into the swamp and you'll find a ton
I guess
But i never used one
I just go to a cold place and make some torch to hatch them
If i don't have ac
Help, if I use the destroyallenemies command and my dinosaurs also disappeared, how do I get them back?
You can't really
Just don't use that command
Does uploading a character bring your inventory with you?
uploading a creature says it will destroy it. I'll still be able to download it to another ark right?
Yes just take the saddle off because it will drop it in a bag anyway.
You can upload the items also, so you can bring everything across, just nothing in inventories
LMAO I'm looking for a single male ovis and spot a UNICORN
guys what do I do when I make like 3 ticketes in 2 weeks and ark does not repily to you I just want my character DX'
Are crystal isles ever opening for classicpvp cluster?
Probably not, ci isn't really a classic pvp type of server
If so, I want conquest servers back 😭
i muted a male ptera but he has 1/20 mat and 1/20 pat mutations. I thought you were suppose to focus on pat muations and keep swapping the male out. Should i sitll add the 1/20 mat + 1/20 pat mutated male to my breeder circle? Or just wait for a 2/20 pat ?
Hi :) My server have 41 hours offline :) Fix pls xd
Hi you didn't say which server, also #server-reports
These raptors are ninnies
If it's a male it doesn't matter
Ello
Would it not "add" to the total amount of mutations? (20)? I thought i heard you should always make sure all the muts are on the dad side
If it is a male, the mutations will be on the dads side
On the next generation
The way to keep mutations on the dads side is to not use mutated females
Exactly, i have 0 mutated females, all with same stats, and theyre breeding with 1/20 mutated male right now. They just gave me a new male though with a mute on the materineral side 1/20 and pat side 1/20. And im not sure how, or if i should keep it? Its a male...
Should i roll him into the breeder circle or will that mess the mutations cap up? Im not even sure excatly how it rolled mutation on the maternal side
Is there a way to turn off S+ auto opening gates
how long does a dragon egg take to hatch?
Other than manually doing each one lol
If you put him in the mutation line, the next generation will have 3 patrilineal mutations and 0 matrelinial
As long as the new mutation is ON a male it's fine. It doesn't matter where it came from
I'm confused - which is the fishing mission in Gen 2? (I am aware of fishing missions only in Gen 1: Bog Fishin' • Ice Fishin')
-- Fixed fishing mission on Genesis 2 (From patch notes). v343.18 - 02/18/2022 - Minor version for servers
typo
a lot like i do, nearly all my messages are edited for that fact
no idea how you play this game. what a mess
is the entire aberration map in a cave?
On console, how do I fix screen tear?
@jaunty tiger #735196255483068497 for lfg
There are 3 surface caves, only accessible at night, otherwise you get burned
Why am I in nothing but a massive cave?
Are you saying there IS a surface?
LOL because aberration is a cave.
yes, if you go to the surface during the day you will be burned to death
Yeah its just scary
how do i change it so i can edit ini files it says i dont have permission?
your message was very confusing xD
Oh im sorry
So, the map is a cave, but there is a surface?
I was tempted to see if I could build an entire building from the cave exit to the obelisk but that's a lot of time wasted if it didn't work, plus the obelisks have a "no build" zone around them
3 mini caves open up to the surface areas
does anyone know how to gain accses to ini files?
are there indicators as to where they are?
You have asked in 3 channels, just wait to see if anyone can help you in the #bobs-with-probs channel that you've asked in.
The ab wiki should tell you
hook the hard drive up to a pc that u have admin on
is it read only ? untick that
Hi guys so quick question, me and my buddy are trying to play ark, however I have it on steam and he has it on epic. Is there a way we can play through a non-dedicated session or do we really need a dedicated server?
because I have tried to do dedicated servers and have had no luck starting them even though my ports seem to be forwarded correctly so i really dont want to have to go that route lol
Hey guys anybody else having troubles with just loading in onto their server? I don't know if this affects everyone else but I play on PlayStation as can be told
imagine getting wiped on official but then a server restart saves your base
then you'll have time to run before the enemies get there again
pack everything on a quetzal or something then book it
Is it weird that when I logged back onto my single player, The Dinopithicus king trophy wasn’t in my inventory anymore
The thing that happened to me is that I got kicked out of my tribe out of nowhere along with my friend
This gameee
u know man
ohh I found a forest
why the fuck do ppl put things on passive...
that'll just make u easier to get raided
sure the enemies can just lure them out, but thats at least a fighting chance instead of them just sitting there doing absolutely nothing
plus in a huge base you have to deal with turrets too, if you have to fight those alongside agressive dinos. u may aswell just run away
aggressive
Guys what does it mean for a server from being rolled back or something cuz I'm on a PVP
Like it goes back in time essentially?
kind of, so if the server says its gonna roll back thats a good time to just full on scout raid bases for any easy to get into ones
cuz nothing will save after restart
or maybe it'll just roll back as long as it says the timer is?
idk how it works
But shouldn't official servers not be affected by this
Because my friend and I got raided on her old base the last time and we moved to this one just yesterday and we made a shit ton of progress and we're not even in the tribe or anything anymore
Yeah it's always whenever we make really good progress somehow we get wiped
Wow all of our stuff is gonee
what lvl r u guys
95
i see
tbh when i start on servers i dont bother doing anything massive, i just grind levels through explorer notes on island
To be honest what we try and do is just get as much tame as we possibly can and try and kill bosses
Some people that we used to be teamed up with the very first time when we started playing all together we're absolutely huge like they had tp's and a lot of gigas and practically everything
ive never gotten too far in servers
thing is im both nice and ruthless online lol
sometimes i just run around ruining ppls perfect tames, then other times i help ppl
Same with us lmao
how do i change it so i can edit ini files it says i dont have permission on windows version?

How do i open my sinos inventory while its on my back
and how do i drop it (on pc)
hi
everytime I join I play for like 10mins then my game crashes and for some reason, the crash logs are only related to lost island, but i dont have it installed
has anyone else got this problem or is it just me
just u
:|
How do I download my items/dinos?
Yeah there’s tonnes
Nice, solid Community Crunch this week @viral shore , dont over work yourself.
@grizzled notch agreed
Anyone know any good base spots on gen 2 no ratholes
Do you need an ark page account to report players?
Keep going to "report abuse" and theres nothing there other then information guides, no actual form to submit any reports
How do i upload myself from genesis
Wdym ark page account
Now, on aberration is there like a tek cave like there is on the island? I'm not sure how to progress the storyline
go to a mission terminal
@heavy cedar can you please remove the block on thylas in the boss arena? Or atleast give servers the option without having to add a mod that allows all? I do not see why they are banned when feather raptors/shadowmanes are not banned at this point in the game. Can this please be resolved? It is incredibly disheartening that they are set aside for no reason.
No ab is just a boss fight and an easy one at that.
So is the resource map for lost island not updated fully or is there not a lot of metal nodes to go around on the map?
so after that you just upload and move to extinction?
Yes
tbh, I didn't really like the aberration map
I think Ab would've been a lot better if it was less confusing and didn't have radiation blocking off half the map.
did the servers go down on the ark
Why would radiation block off half the map? Not any different than murder snow on Rag, just get the proper armor!
I personally love aberration
I like the aberrant variants of dinos, they look cool
So different to the other maps and had the best exclusive creatures imo
when is next evolutin event?
I need help. I can't download a survivor to the Island
is their going to ve a weekend update
As in an evo event?
Well there is no event this weekend so no rate changes. Not sure what is planned for next weekend though
do u know when next event will be
No since I do not work WC, just a community volunteer so I only find out when the crunch comes out each week if there will be one or not.
i have only play singleplayer no multiplayer how is the multiplayer
played here who Primal Fear modded ark Have questions about this
Please increase decay timer of tek camera so it doesn't have the same decay timer of thatch
wtf is this thing that looks like a boar and can heal itself?
Hi all, having issue on my cluster. I cant be recruited or recruit other tribe members. Nothing happens when we hold down E while looking at each other.
What’s the best armor/insulation ratio
I primarily live in the desert portion of ragnarok and I’m having trouble with wild animals and the heat. As in I can deal with animals if I wear flak but then I’m obviously on fire and I can deal with heat with desert cloth but then I’m being attacked by like a direwolf or something. So basically what’s the best combination of armor to get the all around best armor and insulation
is there some sort of way i can increase how much exp and levels i can get on my dino? i would like the most easy way if possible
Anyone know what this update is about?
hey guys can someone help me
is an apprentice bow better than a primitve crossbow?
anyone knows a good place to farm metal that is not aberration?
Volcano on The Island is rich with metal but it's often dangerous to get there unless you have an argentavis or pteranodon
I forgot what I was originally going to ask
There is a tiny mountain that has crystal and metal deposits east of South 1
I think it's south 1
Gen 2 space
Gen 1 volcano is also really good
My friend is downloading the free version right now lol
I asked her if she plays so uh.... oops
Yes much better
Depends
Whats the damage and durability?
apprentice is just the rough quality, you need to know the damage to know if it's better or not
and of course the durability too
My current one is a mastercraft with 200.7 damage and 322 durability
bow?
Crossbow sorry
Hello
I got it from an alpha drop
oh nice, I got a near identical one from a raptor once too
Same with my mastercraft pick and apprentice hatchet
Actually no its a journeymen my bad
alphas are great for early game loot
i’ve been getting a line 228 crash and it always mentions lost island, even though it’s not installed
anyone know a fix
I got so many top tier tools from alphas. I need to see how many alphas i killed
My 132 raptor died :(
rest in pieces, raptor
Rip
I found a 140 tapejara but it's being circled by a therizino
I haven't played in a bit but in my current save I was going to be killing 2 alpha raptors
Scary theri (it rhymes)
Therizino level 50 i can take out with a raptor 225 right
I wouldn't risk it
Ehhh
Probably not
theris do torpor too
Too late it agrod on me brb
Ok i killed 4 alpha rexes, 11 alpha carnos and 14 alpha raptors
not enough to KO your dino, but enough to KO you
So im knocked out on the ground right now
Yea i lost a good argy a long time ago do to a high lvl theri attacking me for no reason/me getting too close even though i was a safe distance away
I did the dishonourable thing and used code kill
mmmmm
It did the torpor damage necessary before i used the code
Hope you like your nap
oh sweet you can tame it later
It's dead.
Definately!
bruh
Bruh
Oh
That's typically what code kill does
I thought you meant you used the code to kill yourself
Same
killing the enemy with it is unfun
you killed a max lvl theri. That could of been so helpful
one singular raptor
ain't losing everything
Losing a tamed raptor > killing a wild 150 theri
indeed
Yo i have a issue with playing ark, whenever i try to switch to item eg pickaxe in my hotbar pressing the hotkey eg 1 it crafts it and doesn't allow me to switch to it unless i do it manually
I would of just lead it further away from the base, granted, you would of died but still you would of been safe from its wrath
your alt key is probably held down
Do you have the actual item or the engram on your hotbar
ahem
have
Or the alt key yeah
I have the actual item
when you alt + hotbar number then it crafts the item even if you have the item already
That wouldve been my second guess yeah
so the game thinks your alt key is held down
Have... yes my bad lol
Thanks ill check it out if it work or not
tapping the alt key a few times should fix it
I heard alt f4 is a way to help you ascend in ark instantly
do you want to close the game or increase volume/brightness
a lot of laptops have f4 as the key to increase brightness/volume
Both
I'm almost done with my snail breeding
then you press Fn+alt+f4
Got some nice colored ones
Fn makes you press the function button alone instead of enabling whatever it does
very useful for someone who uses a 60%
Got a lime green color mut on my spinos 😍 looks so cool
oooh nice
I very much appreciate how the egg incubator gives a preview of colors
Just stopped for the night but if I remember I definitely will tomorrow!
Will do :)
speaking of mutations... i should start taming rexes and start breeding them
Ah thanks i unassigned the alt key and it stopped crafting items in my hotbar
Good recommendation on an egg collector? One that just picks up and stores eggs until I can get to them? Something easy to use, least buggy, and doesn't change or improve eggs in anyway. Not looking for a cheaty way of getting better eggs, just picking them up off the ground. Steam Workshop please.
If you're already using s+ you can use the hatchery and edit the hatch rate for it
Not using S+ took way to long to load into map
Thats not s+’s fault
well It's not my computer's fault
S+ is a relatively small mod
Unless your definition of “way too long” is less than 5 min
Maybe I'm getting confused it was primitive + that was taking ages
Ye prim+ definitely takes a while
However, I don't want to use S+ either please
Dino storage also can do that
DSv2
it's a good mod, and all the features that you don't like can be turned off with relative ease
How did I forget dsv2 could do that
of course I don't use it myself, but that's not the point
I use the other features in it
I use it all the time so I remembered it
The KBD oviraptor also does that but KBD also changes hella loads of other dinos. If you happen to already use it though it's an option
picking up eggs by hand is no
also I scared everyone away from the other server ;-;
My brain tonight is just like... no
my brain is always no
though I might end up getting it for the item transfers
well for now I'm more so thinking of deleting ark
I have no space for anything else ;-;
I'd keep my saves, and also reinstall it when I get my HDD
uninstall ci and be free
but I want CI :(
No you don’t
I want all the maps
Not ci
You'd rather uninstall all of ark than one map of ark.. :thonking:
I'm a big brain man
however perry is correct
I'll probably delete CI
Trust us, we know what you don't want 
ofc ofc
A first
though I really don't want to
I also really like having space
and I ain't deleting warframe
the entirety of warframe is also only like 3/4 as big as CI alone
Wf is 30ish, CI is 54
I thought CI is 60
eh close enough
'a lot smaller' will do
I just thought of something, would giant bee honey lear a quetz?
i have an announcement. SCREW TAMING SETTING SET IT TO 10
That’s what mine is at lol
what is it?
My taming speed is at 10
Oh i tought that said " thats not what mines at"
how do i stop mobs spawning in my turf
i placed 20 foundations around the base and they still spawn
Does a higher quality rifle do more torpor damage as well?
Yeah
Finally melee mutation number 9.
Mutating rexes for over 3 days and now im on 9/20 melee mutations. Afterwards imma mutate health and see how far i can take it
Does the box of candy work on babies to mature faster?
Box o chocolates? I think theyre only built to fill dinos hp up to 100%
Oh ok cause they can heal and tame faster dinos so i wondered if it worked on babies
Story: I was on this map and I had 1 raptor, pteranodon, argentavis, and Cano. I was grinding exp for my carno and then I experienced frame drops. I was wondering why and then I found out that there was a huge battle ground with hundreds of scorpions, saber tooths, raptors, a pack of allosaurs, 3 rexs, and A fucking level 150 acrocanthosaurus.I grinded the hell out of that battle ground and got 69 (nice) levels for my carno. I am going to tame a rex there or maybe a acro, what do you think?
Edit: Shit all the rexs and Acros are dead because like 30 argentavis spawned and then massacred all of them (I have a photo before the acro and rex died and after I killed 2/3 of all the carnivores there)
They can help tame dinos?
Yes
It says on the box
that it advances their taming
yeye, optimicen el juego putos
Also how long does it take a baby wyvern to grow up
where i can find the BEST riot armor blueprints ?
purple orbital supply drops has some good ones
i know. But i need the best
there's no "best"
Hello! It's my birthday in a couple weeks and i'm looking to buy my way into the gen 1 boss fight with any method necessary! Please DM me for more details
also not sure why you added the fact that it's your birthday
How good is a tusoteuthis
anyone know why artifact of the massive isnt spawning on lost island official small tribes servers?
hasnt spawned in over 12hrs
Someone might be taking it
no shot
Have you made sure that no one has gotten it in a bit
Probably bugged it's pretty well know for that to happen
Happens a ton on ab shadow never spawns for me
Any good breeding settings for single player?
can someone help me,so basically i wanna join my friends server and i search it up but its not there? reply if u know
Does your friend have ark on xbox or win10?
yes
but i search the server up but no results
so does anyone know:(
acctually DM me if u know
im gonna hold off until i get tranq darts
please does anyone know
i finally tamed a sinomacrops
are there any websites that hosts an ark server 24/7 for you? without having your pc turned on
yeah you can rent them from places like nitrado or survival servers.
that i have to start it again when i start my pc again
after idk taking a break or smth
so like the server is available to play 24/7 even though the host (me) is not online
yeah your friends can log on without you being online
perfect
you only need to be online if youre playing non dedicated, which you arent because youre using a rented server
tysm
Yo
Anyone wanna ask something i am bored
starting a new lost island game
yes i got salty on losing all my good stuff and deleted the save
actually im tired of hating myself on ark so time to play doom
my ark addiction is kicking in again im going back to ark
you guys just saw me go through the 3 stages of grief in4 sentences
Is it more fun to play solo or with people
I'd say it's more fun with people :you don't have to be always online, they can help with breeding and gen 1 boss is easier
Ok
wont let me place down my industrial forge? its inside walls and ceilings but its showing up as green
what to do?
depends on your playstyle
id say depends on whether you like taking the blame for mistakes
like i picked up a lance and a wyvern egg cuz i'd never seen one before and got a 150 wyvern after me on a 225 overburdened pteranodon
yes i deleted that save out of pure and seething anger but i had noone to blame but myself
if you like doing that go for a solo game
I've restarted like 10 times
hope that helped
ive just recently had my addiction back too
what's a rlly good high mobility tame that does alot of dmg
and is hard to actually die with
most very good high mobility tames suck at combat like bloodstalkers, but its really hard to die with one unless you dont know what youre doing
interesting would a shadow mane be a good tame?
its good at combat but not that good at traversing the map fast
I mean doesn't it have that rlly far jump
unless youre going underwater the jump is slower than stuff like bloodstalkers or maewings, and if youre going over steep terrain then youre kind of screwed.
How do I open my dinos inventory while riding it? pressing the letter I on my keyboard would open my character's inventory only
shadowmane, theri, rex, spino etc
I'll just ask for a shadowmane then ty for the help
Press f while on your Dino
hey guys, im playing scorched earth and i've put the difficulty level to 1.0 and the maximum difficulty thing enabled but it still is only spawning like lvl 6 direwolves and stuff
can yall help me?
tysm!
yoo im down
Psn name Roei Fridman
u have a skull pfp?
sent
Woah, someone who judges ppl based on their pfp 😳 how intelligent
@deft pivot use #735196277221883964 for lfg.
I play on singleplayer and got killed, i went to customize the difficulty to the settings and then came back, but when i came to the place where i died, i didn't have anything there, nor my things, nor my raptor. Is that a bug or?-
Wow someone who decides to use a cringe anime pfp, how intelligent
That's almost the same as wearing an anime shirt in public
Btw not trying to start drama just having some fun 😔
I say almost cuz that level of cringe is just unreachable by any other means
- respect
I'm talking about you, not them
I know
just gotta clarify to avoid misunderstandings
It's normal that my astrodelphis dismounted me every time I use it in attack mode?
I think it was a PS bug, but I thought they fixed it eons ago
I just level up to 120 and started using my Astrodelphis and is doing that all the time not sure how to stop it from doing it
You don’t need to unlock the saddle to ride it btw
Does anybody have an idea waht is going on with server 992? It is down for over 72 hours.
I’ve died and lost a lot of shit I’ve repawned and there’s 2 therizinos camping my base I only have a iguanadon so therizinos are actually a big deal so I’m gonna fight them if I die I quit and join a different server if I win I’ll carry on
Probably gonna die tho
does gigas spawn in the desert on lost island?
No
should i get genesis part 1 and part 2 or no
why not
yes gen 1 is super fun.
do i give pteranodons meet or berries?
meat
ok
The people that made ark pls add a red dot sight
Laser attachment
But thers a difference
Is there?
Yes red dot is a sight laser is well a laser
scope superiority
Obviously but
Explain the difference lol
I see none
Oh ig if you really think about it ther is no difference
I thought red dot wasn't a laser
just a dot on the crosshair, while laser makes a laser
yeah
Idk lol
I don't know real life :P but in other games thats how it works I think. red dot doesn't leave the gun :P
anyone got any good duo steam servers?
All of mine @zealous nebula
I also have a glider one but it isn’t complete because I forgot about sino lol
Underlined is the highest stat for the category
Thx, gave me something to do when I was bored lol
Probably will do a “weight” one next
Gasbags, basilisk, exo mek, etc
O.o
what should i use to get around aberration, i'm tired of getting knocked off my ravager by everything
spinos and karkinos are my go to before drake
don't aggro anything apart from other apexes
spinos are fast, karkinos can jump
gotcha, ty
whats the best spawn on rag to get to dc?
dc?
Yes
what is a dc?
@viral shore @heavy cedar could it be changed to allow us to transfer flags/trophies to any map? Be nice to have all battle flags and head mounts at our main bases 😫
Disconnection
Does the federation exo skin act like a gas mask?
Do classicservers have tek dinos?
is that what he was going for tho?
No idea but that's what I associate the term dc with 😁
did something happen to the game? everything is so dark all of the sudden.... (no its not night time)
Dododex and the wiki are your best friends in this game.
Which one
Hi, is normal polymer can be used as organic polymer or just organic polymer as poly ?
Wait
Both can be used for everything apart from ghillie which only takes organic
Ghillie is the jungle suit, something like that ? (Sry im not english so my game too)
is anyone else having issues with the brightness of the game? for me and my server. and all people on it everything is very dark
Yeah the one with leaves and shit
Is your gamma at 100% ?
yes
So i cant help you, my game is very dark at night too...
yes midnight but its midday
ive checked. but its all normal like before. also for my friends. it happened after the last update
Dark at night maybe but at midday, this is weird
Maybe corrupted world (i dont know how but maybe)
Try to report this to admins
where do i tag them?
are you on an unofficial cluster?
yes
Do they have a separate discord? Facebook group?
im admin
If you don't have access to the actual server settings and such then you'll need to contact the person who owns the servers
thats me
its my servers. im hosting
never mind. turned off ark a second time. booted it again and its fixed...
Okay, well that's what that person was trying to say. like contact the admins/owner of your cluster. if that is you then you might be able to get some help in #unofficial-setup-help
lol go figure. gotta love ark
Should i use custom dino level mod?
dont know. i never use mods really. like the base game
Finding metal on ab is so cruel lol
Okay, fishing on canoe is broken?
Maybe im a bit too spoiled lol
How do I toggle my light pet off? I read something about emotes but when I looked at the emote scroll wheel I didn't see anything about it
Did you just finish a boss fight?

What is the thing to type into the event box to make it love evolved event forcefully because I do not have it
Does anyone know the best Dino to tame that can deal with therizinos I’m level 64
How well would 12 mutated shadowmanes with 8 tek rexes that are also mutated do against beta dinopithecus king?
wait 11 shadows and 7 rexes for a yuty and daedon
Don’t use daedon
And it completely depends on the stats
I play on high stats and higher difficulty all the stats are like really good without mutations than im mutation stacking right now so even stronger
and i was gonna bring daedon cause it heals and healing will be helpful?
So… what are the stats?
Daedon dies too quickly to be any use
And if it doesn’t die, the food will run out before the fight is over
Hello anyone can help me plz
Whats the problem
like insane 300k health per rex and like 1.2k melee but thanks for the daedon tip
Ah then yeah youll be fine
All right thanks cant wait to see how good the mutations make them
Btw if you’re doing boss fights, stop leveling at like 100k health max and do the rest for melee
Because at some point they’re never gonna die and its better to just level melee so the fight goes quicker
Okay but they are kinda the boss fight team so we can leave them there and just get artifacts
Yeah its fine as of now, just a tip for the future
All right ill definetly use that for a solo playthrough of mine with lower stats
@wispy frigate thx so this morning i have play and stop to go eat and When this afternoon i launch again my game they say me assertion failed inpos…. Idk what i have to do help me plz

Back up the Saved folder first. Then if you're loading a backup load the other backup
@placid sundial i don t think I understood everything can i mp you for more precision ?
I prefer not to unless necessary. Why do you think your backup is corrupt?
Are you loading a backup right now?
I see ut on Google btw
The first thing you should do regardless is back up the Saved folder though. Before you boot the game any more
Ok but how i do it
?
No i don t now how to do it
Are you on steam or epic?
Steam
Right click ark on the sidebar. Properties>local files>browse
Then go to ark> shooter game and then copy and paste the folder called Saved somewhere else
Ooooo properties
Ok and after ?
What map are you on?
I screen all the way you say because i will do it tomorrow im not in my home right now
Im on a worshop map tungusta
Its not the first time it say me this
Alright. In the current Saved folder- that's still in ark- go into SavedArksLocal. See what the name of the file for tungstata is, then delete it
And rename the anti corruptionbackup to that then load
If that doesn't work, delete the newlaunchbavkup and then copy in the one from the backup. Then rename and load
If that doesn't work, try the numbered [mapname].ark files. Rename and load
Ok but they will not delete my backup
They're numbered with date they were created
The idea of copying the Saved folder was to not delete the backup, yeah
You should be deleting anything there, only copying
Oki
So if something goes wrong you can revert to it
Ok very thx i will try it this night or tomorrow and say you if its done
And i miss to say you something im in a modded game if this information can be useful
@placid sundial
Sometimes yeah, not this case though. Inpos is generic corruption
Ok thx u
Can anyone please share with me their breeding settings. I've tried a lot of them but they're either super fast and the imprint is fucked or take way too long to grow and mate.
If you want to play with boosted breeding rates and still be able to get full imprints, you need to increase the Imprinting amount per imprint in the .ini
Every time I try to tame a voidwyrm it flies into an invisible acid pool in the middle of the map
What the fuck
@placid sundial I followed your instructions I restarted and it did not deliver the message (insertion failed inpos) but I have nothing left neither my equipment nor my previously tamed dinos
Can snow owls detect hives(thermal vision)?
Probably didn't name the save correctly then
File extension needs to be .ark
Not .bak
is there rock drakes on gen 2
what save i have to change name ?
Do trees just decay?
Good mods for ark the island
monte stacks
makes farming alot more fun and easy
and awesome spyglass
true
i just got a tek rock drake saddle on slide and glide mission n gen 2
What that one called where you can locate all dinos on the map
? @placid sundial
for locate all dinos you can use a transmitter
the files that i said in my explanation
these ones
how do i free more space to download ark.....I've already uninstalled all my games and i still need like 4 mb
So i have to rename it anti corruption.ark ?
No, to whatever the map's save's name is
.ark
exactly what the file that you deleted is called
for example island would be TheIsland.ark
can someone help
Tunguska_p.ark
@placid sundial
If that's what the fi8le you deleted was called then yueah
ye but when i delete it i lost all my items and dinos ...
Can u sever hop with a reaper inside u
I genuinely really want to enjoy this game and I do it's just it's so hard when you're only playing with a group of friends which one of them can't play till like a month and essentially it's only you and this other person
I just chill on gen now
I beg yall can anyone help me fix “no sessions found” in unofficial pc session i even tried to delete and download the game again and it didnt work
yes you can. 🙂
Can I add SS without removing S+ or will that mess everything up
Only reason I ask is because I didn't realize you can't pick stuff back up by default on S+ like I thought, but I don't want my S+ stuff deleted lol
thats basegame now, its a setting you need to enable alwayspickup I think
Ah yeah just found the .ini line I need to add. Thank you!
quick question about mutation stacking
best to do hp seperate from melee or keep both on 1 male and breed whit that
Why my ark got a 80 gb update
How does cannon aiming work? I've lined up two shots that seemed perfect and just completely missed
Ok wtf.... I finally managed to hit the karkinos and it took no torpor
Keep them separate. If you don't, then you'll be rolling to keep 2 stats every time instead of just one.
kk thanks
And now my cannon won't fire at all?
Ok so karkinos don't get knocked out by cannonballs? I've now hit two and it just pisses them off
Does anybody know what's going wrong here
Where is best place to see how good stats are on fert eggs? Learning how to get into breeding more
is there any fixes for getting booted out of a dedicated server at random times
it says I timed out
after 15 or so minutes of playing
Uh why are people putting high lvl Dino’s on other maps that they spawned in on a solo map
Wdym
People are taking lvl 10m Dino’s on a sever that is only a lvl 600 max wild
And it is a whole different cluster
Ngl sounds like the server owner’s fault for not having transfers disabled
And anyways those lvl 10m dinos aren’t any better than lvl 1.7k at their best
No it is all of pve
Every single sever it is happening to
That is unofficiall
And now the whole sever is being checked
so join the servers discord
Aint better than a 1,225
How so?
255 cap
They used admin abilities to spawn Dino’s
And transfers were disabled
Then the servers have really bad admins
How much better would is a giga than rexes?
Don't people go wayyy over 255 with mut stacking?
Ye, and then it gets reset when the server restarts
I mean you can go over 255 points, but the stat values themselves will be reset
It resets in sp also
Hed have to spawn all of them in without relogging so that they don’t reset
I can't imagine he's been running his game constantly for years lmao
¯_(ツ)_/¯ idk exactly what he does
Who has tips on getting out of the rock drake trench since there's no flyers on ab
question... can you cross play between PC and console?
anyone know any mods that make your character disappear when you log out
Steam and epic cannot, however if you purchased the win10 edition from the Microsoft store you can crossplay with xbox.
so today i found out i could get a version of ark on gamepass that has every dlc and stuff.. as im on the end of the island
so i wasted a lot of time
im gonna finish the island on the one i own, delete it, download the other one and just spawn in the stuff to kill the alpha bosses for survival quotient and head to scorched
Is any one experienced in making servers?

Is there a mod for the windows Verison of ark to increase FPS/optimize ark.
I can get my stuff to generally run smooth enough to play but it looks like absolute shit

if youre asking if smelted ingots will "spoil" inside a furnace, then no, you can just leave them in there

hey on my solo my wold crash every 15 min, bringing me back to the same save everytime
any advice on how to fix
Question, does giant bee honey have the ability to lure in quetzals?
Well I got bad news and good news
Bad news is a giga came and attacked my base(rip my mutated snails and some other stuff)
I do indeed wanna see your poglin
How did a giga get to your base?
Good news is that I can rebuild most of it so I don't mind
My base is next to a spawn location for them apparently
What mp
Im more interested in why you mutated snails
Ragnarok
I feel like there is something good I am missing here
For the funny and because I like snails
because colourful snails 
solid reason
You live in the plains near the wyvern trench or near one of the obelisks dont you?
another solid reason
I live near green ob
I approve of snail breeding, though it is a pain
Yeaaaaah thats a giga and titanosaur spawn area
Any gestation breeding is a pain
I bred about 50 for paste
I think taming is easier
I don't wanna spend so much on veggie cakes
snails even more so
Nah, maewings and they mate 2 at a time so they add up super quick
boosted breeding? I was referring more to official
I do have boosted breeding myself that makes it more worth it to breed them for me
Genderless creatures are the best for color mixing
Dont maewings lay eggs?
You don't have to get a male and female of the colors you want
Oh yeah boosted for sure, but even on official it wouldnt be as bad as normal gestational births
the babies starve to death if you don't babysit them
Yeah
afaik they literally can't hold enough weight or food to be able to eat veggie cakes when they need to
I leave mejos or meat depending on what they are
yeah, but still hermaphroditic so you get 2 eggs
maewing
or food
Doesn't the maewing feed the babies though?
if the baby doesn't think it's hungry then it'll just starve to death, which is my point
Babies just starve because they feel like it
if it's current max food is lower than the food that cakes give
gotta show us who's boss after all
Its annoying because how long it took to get that one baby
but it's not random, it's based on their food stat
Just like real children, they know they run the roost
if their food stat is lower than the food given by one cake, then they'll never eat
Daeodon babies are annoying to take care of
Because when I try to breed them they have the stupid passive healing on
And they die faster because of it
Personally, i see shadowmanes a but hard to breed mainly do to getting the shadowmanes to breed. So in technicality, i just find shadowmanes super hard to tame
Especially on PlayStation because the button to Access the inventory is the same button to active passive healing
Not as bad as Amargo or Megachelon buuuuut still hard
Shadowmanes we're a pain for me to
Everything about Shadowmane is a pain
Or magmasaurs
Magmasaurs are fine as long as youre in lava.
Manas randomly disappearing because they meshed through a wall is fun
They power boost out when they are born
Yep
Had some in a cave because of it and one power boosed into the wall and vanished forever
Into the void with you
I had a mutated one that jumped so high that it got stuck onto a place I couldn't whistle it
damn rip
When I first got my mana I power boosted to get frost wyvern eggs, fell through the map so far I found water and then teleported to the top outside the trench. I now only use snow owls
Had to go back all the way to my base(at the time) and go fly all the way back with an argent just to whistle it
I never actually bred manas
Wyverns are something I never use because of friendly fire
If you do, just make sure youre indoors with a full size mana's amount of room
I stopped using mine bacause the breath is so hard to land
Also, question, do you guys think 10 melee mutations stacked is a good amount for rexes?
depends what it started at
I had a lighting one and it almost killed my glowtail
oof
10 mutations on 20 melee, is meh at 40 melee. 10 mutations on 40 melee is much better at 60 melee. All subsequent levels are percentage based so
Idk why I never bred wyverns I just never felt like it tbh
The start was 419.7 but another baby female i had has 420 melee with no mutations and now the line went up to 560 without levels or imprint
I bred frost and fire to produce perfects with the intent of mutating but never have
The ice ones are kinda bad but they look gorgeous
I use them to grab dinos to train lol
Id say if i can get more melee mutations i cqn get it over 700
For sure
I've mutated (lemme count)
Is melee over 700 without leveling or imprint a good thing or can i get higher with a melee focused rex
76 creatures
My rexes are not great with 57 HP and 41 melee, but with 50 levels on them i have 30k hp and 1044% melee which is good enough for bossing atm. Thats all I need lol
My rexes I haven't used in a while
With leveling?
yeah
Because I accidentally messed up how much their stats get boosted when they are imprinted
I think my rexes can surpass yours
I just remembered I had a mutated equus that I haven't used in a while
I really hope i can get 20 melee mutations
Its getting super hard do to how little mutations im getting and all of them arent in melee
I bred rexes like 3-4 years ago
I forgot but it's been a long time
For sure, like I said, mine arent graet
But they do the job for now
After i get the melee mutations done ima work on health and the highest hp is 9.2k
Anyone know a large flat area that would be good for a new breeding location? outgrowing this one in a hurry lol
Map doesn't matter
Gen 2 has plenty of flat lands
The islands hidden lake is another good spot
As well as the flatlands near green ob on rag (high risk of gigas though)
There's a cave in Ragnarok I used for breeding a bit it has alot of water
But there's also a spot near green ob just put turrets around to protect from Gigas
They rarley spawn but they are there
Lemme find the cords I legit forgot where I left my gps
57.1 lat 36.5 lon
Thanks I will check it out
Np good luck 👍
What's the command to complete all gen2 missions?
Look online for that, if you cant find if just brute force youd way through them
Looks like Beanny has a video called How To Finish Any Mission With Cheats
Hey can someone help me build an incubator,i don't have any od tbe dlcs besides scorched earth,ill bring the materials as well
I'm in the hidden grotto and the artifact isn't there i looked everywhere even where it spawned why isn't it spawning
If it hasnt been long enough it wont spawn when you are too close
I've been on the map for 5 in game days
I mean if you are getting additional artifacts, also if you have teleported to it or ghosted in, it will not always load correctly as entering the cave is the 'trigger' to load
And my base isn't close to it its [redacted]
If none of that is the case, then I am not sure
Oh yeah I'm on single player btw
if its glitched out, I would just say spawn in the artifact and continue your day
yeah, timer was probably just off for some reason
Please don't crash istg
why do you have a tether distance for non dedicated arks? @viral shore
to help with lag. on PC you can extend it but it will still pull into caves, boss arenas, and sometimes randomly (load points on the map)
when is next arkpoc wiping?
why doesnt official servers have it if it helps with lag
dedicateds don't have it. its to help the hosts client side lag.
they just don't allow you to 🤷 you can run a dedicated server to not have a tether.
why dont they?
🤷
could they add it in?
I doubt they will, they haven't even added the ability to change the tether distance on consoles.
Official servers are hosted on machines built for properly hosting servers
Non dedicated servers are hosted on some console you bought for $200
Additionally, dedicated servers are usually a full on, stand alone machines in their own right. This means its not 'wasting' processing power on what you are seeing and doing so more is free to calculate additional features
You could run a dedicated on your own machine if tethering is that important to ya
Buuut then you can’t play on it with that same machine
I was referring to a 2nd machine, but yeah good point lol
smh chat's dead
any devs on? could you dm me.
You absolutely can lol
I am playing at this very moment on a server that is being played on on the same machine it's hosted
just need 16GB ram, which isn't that much
though I think you need more ram for more people right
Type and number of mods, graphics, dino count, number of players, etc, lots of stuff affect it
@silent matrix @peak finch @viral shore
Oh unless this is referring to console specifically because afaik there's no separate server software like there is on steam
I see
what
so why would you ping devs about it
you right, my bad for being upset about getting wiped by hackers
been there done that
then you wait
yup
a game dev, which is A DEV, not a game server admin
im aware thanks.
Which theri setting is best to get loads of hide from. It has those extra points you put into the harvesting type but I don’t remember what they’re called
i want to buy tames where do i go @here
delicate iirc, power is meat.
wiki says both are for hide, odd.
alri ty
OH MY GOD
GUYS
i found my fav flyer in the game on lost island yet i didnt even know it spawns on this map
150 female too lets gooooooooo
owl?
yessss
it was literally the only reason i bought extinction but i was too bad to even survive the spawn point
@placid sundial are you here
lost island is my new fav map
to make it absolutely perfect i'd like tropeos to spawn but i guess you cant get everything
you can't get everything but you can get tropeos
sorta
on lost island?
i doubt it.
i mean legitly lol
you can indeed make them spawn
yeah i guess transferring
naturally
spawn ini isn't cheating
idk
if you give me 4min to get this brachi tamed i can make some ini for you
I have aberrant dimorphodons in green zone, I don't feel very cheaty
wow they take a while to tame
no no it's fine
I also have monke in all redwoods, not just lost island
Um ItS a BrOnTo nOt A BrAcHi
no, she's talking about a brachi
ark additions probably.
modded
oh right
a tropeo on lost island wouldn't feel very cheaty either
btw i restarted on lost island again cuz i felt bad for doing the kill command on the theri
it's not cheating as long as you don't do something insane like making quetzals spawn every 0.01 seconds
oof
so last night I deleted as you tell me the tungusta.ark file but I lose all my items and dinos @placid sundial
so i dont wanna use commands again
yeah felt cheap
brachiosaurus with a lava texture.... how ironic
if you watched fallen kingdom you know what im talking about 😭
i said, you have to rename one of the other files as well.
The tungsta.ark is the savefile ark reads
I have not in fact watched that
you need to give it another savefile to read
It also has a snowy one at least
well they leave the jurassic world island and the first brachiosaurus we saw in jurassic park gets overcome with lava and fking dies
(i havent lol)
what is that wyvern.
I see
yeah i only went to see it cuz my sister wanted to
christmas colours fire wyvern
I thought it was a lightning till I saw its breath
honestly i only liked it more than jp 3, didnt enjoy it at all
Fire
PRETTI
