[sullen hatch]

emphasis on whoever asks for it, not like randomly DM whoever who responds the slightest bit

[stiff topaz]

i hate having to constantly open my dms for crashes and then get creepy shit the moment i do

[sullen hatch]

oh wait your DM's are turned off?

[stiff topaz]

Unless I forgot to turn them off after the last crash message image I was sent

[sullen hatch]

embrace the creepy shit

[stiff topaz]

yeah i used to have them on but then i started getting messages that were making me completely break down in a panic and i cant fucking deal with that

[molten falcon]

Got any clue on how to fix my issue? Nothing online about it like at all lol

[stiff topaz]

RHI stands out (related to what causes the nasty D3D device lost crashes)

Pretty grasping-at-straws to suggest based on that but here's some links for d3d

https://appuals.com/how-to-fix-the-error-unreal-engine-is-exiting-due-to-d3d-device-being-lost/

I don't have much other idea tbh

[molten falcon]

can I dm you about this tdr thing?

[stiff oxide]

more torches, i needed like 12 and a dimetrodon

[stiff topaz]

Not done it myself so I can't really offer advice on it, sorry

[rotund zenith]

For a while now, wild carnivores have healed fully every time they eat something. Is there a way to turn this off in ASM or something?

[stiff topaz]

ive been very lucky to only have gotten d3d once or twice

[frail cipher]

Hey guys anyone having issues with tek replicators? I have issues with mine it won’t show any engrams, nor will it let me add anything to it. Any ideas how to fix this?

[steep skiff]

i believe thats just how the game works. so you'd have to make a mod to change that. 🤷

[molten falcon]

I did the TDR thing, now singleplayer works but im starting to think its related to the mod lol

[stiff topaz]

You said it still didn't work even without mods?

[molten falcon]

But I changed my TDR to 10 as that post said and singleplayer works without mods now, before it didnt at all now its happening only when I get to a specific mod

I think it was that the whole time

[stiff topaz]

If it didn't work without mods in the first place though there's potentially something else going on. What mod is it? Might need to look at a full mod reinstall

[molten falcon]

It has been pausing at Primal Fear

[stiff topaz]

Is PF loaded first?

But 'pausing'? Not crashing?

Pausing means loading and a massive mod like PF will take a LONG time to load

[molten falcon]

I meant fatal error crashing (the crashstack i sent) and no PF is loaded after TCs vault

[stiff topaz]

Load PF first. it must have priority

[molten falcon]

But then TC doesnt work correctly

[stiff topaz]

A vault rewards mod needs priority?

What breaks?

[molten falcon]

Yea so it can get all the data from the mods

[stiff topaz]

But PF is an overhaul so a LOT of the mod will depend on having that priority. For exmaple, custom quality tiers. You get crashes encountering one of those custom tiers if it's not first

[vocal falcon]

anyone know when arkpocalypse wipes

[molten falcon]

PF doesnt have custom quality tiers ive not seen a mod with that tbh

[stiff topaz]

you don't see the tiers because it's not loaded first 😉

[molten falcon]

Wait.. it actually has custom tiers?

[stiff topaz]

wonder why that is though

[stiff topaz]

yeah, ive seen a lot of people crashing because of it

[molten falcon]

Are they named differently with different colours?

Or are you talking about dino tiers lol

[stiff topaz]

item tiers yeah

[molten falcon]

:o

Ill try loading it first to see what happens

[stiff topaz]

ill see if I can find what its called

never actually played PF myself so

[molten falcon]

Nothing in the wiki about custom quality tiers

[brazen robin]

there is a red tier like gargantuan or something :P

[molten falcon]

100% mod related PF doesnt work for me, I tried in singleplayer with ONLY PF and i get the same error ive been getting

[stiff topaz]

try full reinstall it (check pins and delete BOTH folders)

[molten falcon]

I have done that like 5 times, I think its one of the expansions..

[brazen robin]

wow I was way off its Godliath 😂

[molten falcon]

LMFAO so i have seen them before, there is an orange coloured one right?

[brazen robin]

been a while since I played the mod :P and I've only done it once.

clearly my memory isn't the best with names

[molten falcon]

Its PF itself thats making my game die... rip

[stiff topaz]

oh i was right but I couldnt find a source lmao

[brazen robin]

have you tried reinstalling it?

[molten falcon]

Yea several times

[brazen robin]

I looked at the wandering loot bosses page :P on the wiki

[stiff topaz]

deleted both folders?

[molten falcon]

Both? there was only 1?

[brazen robin]

there is the one in the ark folder and one in the steam workshop folder

there is a pin showing how to do a full reinstall

[molten falcon]

gotcha, i just did it now reinstalling mod as we speak

Can confirm, the error still happens :(

[stiff topaz]

Does it happen with only main PF? No expansions?

[molten falcon]

Oops, Yea ONLY PF

[stiff topaz]

Might be worth joining the PF discord to ask, in that case

[molten falcon]

I did lol, got the same thing you and desolate suggested with the mod reinstall lol

[low helm]

Is it possible for me to take on the bosses in any map SP? Or do I have to crank the settings in my favor?

[molten falcon]

Like JUST the bosses?

[stiff topaz]

Possible yep, though some depend on how much time you're willing to spend mutating
it's worth noting that SIngleplayer Settings (enabled by default) already massively boosts tame dino health and damage

[low helm]

Hmmm I see... man I just wanna be able to get tek stuff... but people are not reliable

[low helm]

Oops replied to wrong person

[low helm]

What do you mean just the bosses?

[molten falcon]

Read it wrong lol my bad

[low helm]

I suppose I'll have to read more about mutations

Currently I'm just a noob breeding things for backups since mine will die im sure

[molten falcon]

I think i fixed it

Nevermind just took longer for the error to appear...

[stiff topaz]

Can you send the current error?

[molten falcon]

Same error

Exactly the same

[stiff topaz]

What did pf discord say when you said you'd full reinstalled?

at least i assume you told them you'd already reinstalled

if not, tell em that and say you did delete from both folders

[molten falcon]

I forgot to tell them, i did just now idk what the issue could be honestly

[stiff topaz]

Yeah it's weird

[molten falcon]

They recommended I install all the dlcs lol

[stiff topaz]

That's fair honestly. Wouldnt surprise me if it references something in a DLC, and also a mod can get really weird crashes for stupid shit like adding something to the same container as an ice golem 😄

only if you don't have valg installed.

[molten falcon]

LOL if thats the case they would have to slap the "this dlc is required" in the workshop

[stiff topaz]

They can lurk in unexpected places

i just update some spawns and someone says they're suddenly crashing in the arctic??

[molten falcon]

What?? lmfao #OnlyInArk

why do ice golems specifically have that issue

or is it with chalk as well?

[molten falcon]

Well now my game is 340gb big just to get 1 mod working LOL, installing the dlcs for some reason worked

[molten falcon]

may i interest you in some compactgui?

[stiff topaz]

reference to valg only file

[molten falcon]

ah forgot about that

do chalks have it as well?

[molten falcon]

ill take anything that compacts everything

[molten falcon]

my file size is halfed with it, would recommend

Wait, i thought you was being sarcastic, pls donate

slows it down a bit but it's worth to me

[stiff topaz]

valg only but at least not used on other fucking maps

[molten falcon]

"ah yeah let's just shove this in here"

and why does it only crash when something else is added??

@molten falcon How does one half size

[stiff topaz]

the weird thing is that while they look fucked up in vanilla without valg, they only crash when a mod adds to the container. loading issue is a theory i've heard

[molten falcon]

strange

[molten falcon]

google compactgui, grab latest off of github, navigate to the main ark folder, select the 16 option, select the 2 "skip file" options, profit

[stiff topaz]

check if it fixes the crash first though

[molten falcon]

yeah

don't want to spend time compressing and then have to reinstall

[molten falcon]

I did, I loaded into my server ez pz, thank you for your help though it didnt fix anything but still you helped

make sure you have ark closed when you compact

That makes logical sense tbh LOL

[stable dock]

I recently super mutated sheep on official PVE to max base HP.
Now i want to farm them for hide.
I left them in cryo for a few weeks till they got enough exp for 60 levels.
I have around 20 cryo fridges full of those sheep ready to be leveled up, healed, and farmed.
I tried leveling each but it take a very long time and pressing on the left mouse button so much makes my index finger really hurt.
Anyone knows how to allocate levels quickly?
like instantly allocate all the available levels to a single stat.

[stiff topaz]

autoclicker

[stable dock]

i was hoping for an integral feature and not third party application.

like how holding ctrl removes items from your hot bar and shifts allocates them

[stiff topaz]

then no.

i got an autoclicker specifically for levelling hp.

[stiff oxide]

how do you use sanguine elixir on andrews?

and that will improve effectiveness, right? bc less time passes to mess up the button press?

[deft zodiac]

Just consume it when you're near It, it won't improve effectiveness but will increase the taming by 30 %

Or increase the imprint of the baby if it is

By 30%

[gritty current]

Can you improve lifesteal of a Desmodus by leveling/mutating certain stats?

[stiff oxide]

i mean not directly but i should end up with higher effectiveness because effectiveness is lowered by holding the wrong button down and there will be less opportunity to do that?

[deft zodiac]

Yea if you press the wrong button it'll decrease the effectiveness

But till you have honey you should be able to ride it again

[stiff oxide]

so it’ll end up with higher effectiveness than otherwise if i use sanguine elixir?

[deft zodiac]

No, if you press the wrong buttons it'll decrease the effectiveness, if you use a sanguine elixir it won't

[stiff oxide]

i’m getting mixed messages here

now sanguine elixir prevents effectiveness from going down?

[deft zodiac]

Me too

[stiff oxide]

how lmao

[deft zodiac]

It does not, just increase the tamming by 30%

[stiff oxide]

yea so i’m asking if that will result in a higher effectiveness than not using it because less time goes by which is less time for a wrong button to be held down

[deft zodiac]

Yea it's better to use it

[stiff oxide]

better because you’ll end up with higher effectiveness than otherwise?

not worth it if all it does is save you 2 minutes

[deft zodiac]

No, better cause you don't have to ride it again to fill the 30% missing

[stiff oxide]

so even though you should finish the tame faster and have less of an opportunity to hit the wrong button, you’ll still end up with the same taming effectiveness as otherwise?

[deft zodiac]

So you don't have to ride it again and it won't decrease the effectiveness

[stiff oxide]

wait so it will result in a higher effectiveness?

[deft zodiac]

YES 🤣

[stiff oxide]

you keep saying “no” to that lmfao

[deft zodiac]

Oops, must have replied to the wrong part of the message

[weary abyss]

what are the top 3 biggest fish in the lost island?

More dumb questions from a dweeb... (I'm insulting myself not anyone else just for clarity) are there any YouTube videos folks recommend for learning about mutations?

[dull chasm]

I've had this problem shortly after my 2nd day playing. Every 15min (or so) I get disconnected. At 1st I thought it was just random, but it's every time we get a lag spike when the server saves. I've googled this and have found many posts but never a resolve always a closed topic. This is only on the official servers single player is not effected. What can I do to fix this?

[molten falcon]

How much is in the waterskin
How much berries and charcoal do you have in there

[dapper furnace]

58 but is wall full, and there is enough of each ingredient

[molten falcon]

How much charcoal yo got

[dapper furnace]

358

Where can I find lightning wyvern nests?

[placid hawk]

I have a private server on lost island, i was wanting to add sand as a gatherable resource, is this possible?

[stiff topaz]

With mods only

[placid hawk]

Oh, there is no config.ini change i can make?

[stiff topaz]

nope

i mean nodes need to be physically placed on a map so

[placid hawk]

And i can't replace likex50% of the stone with sand? Or set it up like scorched earth where gathering stone also gives sand?

[stiff topaz]

Not without mods

[hollow pulsar]

hi guys this might be the wrong channel but i cant connect to the official servers, it says connection time out, anyone have any idea how to fix it?

[molten falcon]

whats the fastest way to get polymer

[placid hawk]

Nuts, but thank you

[stiff topaz]

Can add it to drops but thats about it

[placid hawk]

Organic or regular? If organic, killing penguins or those other sea birds, or you can tame a snail and it'll auto gather polymer for you

[placid hawk]

Oh?

[molten falcon]

any

the fastest way to get any polymer

[stiff topaz]

Killing

[stiff topaz]

yeah uh check pins in #unofficial-setup-help for beacon, drops are awful to write

How do i join my friend on a non dedicated server and the server has mods?

[burnt flame]

Is there a way to knock beehives off the trees without damaging them?

As in, I'm trying to get giant bee honey, but the bee hives that spawn at lootable heights are extremely rare.

[next fractal]

Try taming a dire bear, they can harvest honey without aggroing the bees

[burnt flame]

Can bears climb trees or something?

[next fractal]

Otherwise I would try taming a queen bee to get the hive itself

[next fractal]

No but you can make ramps to it

Another easy way is getting a grappling hook to harvest them, but that aggros the bees

[burnt flame]

Oh, I faintly remember researching that but never ever used it.

Do you need a new projectile for each use or you just craft one and keep it forever/until it breaks?

[next fractal]

New projectile per use

They are fairly cheap though

[burnt flame]

LIttle price to pay not having to wait multiple days to get ~50 honey from my sole single hive

[next fractal]

Haha yea

[hybrid vale]

i still need help with the game crash if anyone can help me out its called UE4-ShooterGame Game Has Crashed And Will Close\

dm me for the error or something

like it works on singeplayer but when i try to play on a sv it just crashes

[nimble raven]

how do i fix the issue with the fatal error thing

i cant load into like anythign without it

[hollow summit]

To transfer do i put my pt in a cryo and put all my stuff in ark data then click transfer to a diff server?

[molten falcon]

I play on non dedicated session but for some reason my breeding settings are messed up without me messing with them. Is this because of the evo event?

[stiff oxide]

has anyone used sanguine elixir on andrewsarchus? @leaden cape said you could use it on the hotbar while riding it but that doesn’t work

[stiff oxide]

@brazen robin help

[brazen robin]

I've never used the sanguine elixir or even tamed an andrew sorry.

[stiff oxide]

@river wolf

[pine token]

I've found Andrew taming to be super tedious, on default taming-related settings. Tiny sliver of taming progress after each ride.

[summer shore]

Does anyone know of a fix for a black screen on xbox unofficial PC sessions? This is specifically happening on Fjordur the second I log into it. At first it was just freezing right off the bat, but it would load in and I could see the map, now it is just a black screen the moment I load into the map. Any help is appreciated!

[stiff oxide]

it’s not so bad once you get the hang of it but i want higher taming effectiveness:(

use cactus broth, it won’t agro you if you get bucked then, and other andrews don’t aggro

[scenic jewel]

what are gps coords to one of the ocean caves

[idle solstice]

Yo weird ass question how do I give someone max ascension

Can’t find it anywhere

[dusty gull]

Hey does anyone know if alpha deathworms spawn on lost island?

[stiff oxide]

what map

[lofty leaf]

yo can anyone help? i cant seem to fill up my tek canteen

i get it on hotbar but it wont fill up

[pine token]

Getting bucked wasn't really an issue for me. It was just the glacially slow incremental progress.

[stiff oxide]

oh what rate are you on

on 3x it takes me prob uh 10 min start to finish

[pine token]

I'm on a different server now, but iirc the settings were only slightly boosted over official/default

Oh, yeah, it was also 3x. But wild dino levels were also boosted, and I was taming one between 300-350.

[molten falcon]

I play on non dedicated but for some reason my breeding stats got messed up without me doing anything. Is this because of the evo event thing?

[fringe rover]

No, evo only affects official servers
You most likely have the checkbox “use singleplayer settings” on, check under the general tab

[stiff oxide]

you have to use it standing next to it

[molten falcon]

I have the sp setting turned on, but I had settings that allowed me to get 100% imprint on shadowmanes and for some reason after the event they are raising up before I can imprint them

[fringe rover]

Do you have any gen2 mission breeding buffs active?

[next fractal]

Rn im having a problem in my singleplayer world where the harvest rate is totally screwed up. I have it at 3x, but its acting as 0.5x, because every 2 rocks i gather I get 1 stone. Any help?

[molten falcon]

Nope, nothing

[fringe rover]

And just to clarify, you had sp settings on both before and after the evo event?

[molten falcon]

Yes

Think it might honestly be worth it to just completely reset my settings back to default and then back to what they were before the event and see if it fixes it

[nimble raven]

i keep getting fatal error but everytime i verify game files it says 2 were corrupt but they never fix, is there a way to find which ones they are and manually repair them?

[red olive]

That is a common issue for validating on steam, it's almost always 2 that fail to validate. Usually that isn't the cause for the fatal error though

[steel gazelle]

I've beeen looiking for giga for 5 hours to get their heart but havent ran into any in valguero. What could be the isssue? I looked at all three common locations.

[stiff topaz]

nope it's normal for them to fail and there is nothing to fix

send the crash message

[stiff topaz]

singleplayer?

[steel gazelle]

pvp

small tribe valguero

[stiff topaz]

potentially someone else got to them first then

[steel gazelle]

they don't respond?

[stiff topaz]

they do but there's a 'timer' on it

[steel gazelle]

do you know the timer?

i research abit and it says about like "a couple" of minutes

surely it's not this hard to find giga?

[charred vale]

giga is rare spawn creature, so yeah its takes times

[steel gazelle]

how long did it take you to find yours?

[charred vale]

there's no measure of time for this

see how good are you at scouting

[steel gazelle]

true

how long does it take to tame a dienonycus. I want to hatch it but i don't know if i have enough resources.

[charred vale]

deino cant be tamed, only can steal them eggs from wild

but they are easy to raise

[late halo]

I need serious help. My exo mek is bugged and will not put the stuff i have in its hands down. Wtf do i do. Ita currently holding my rep.

Its already eaten my tp when i tried to move it aswell.

[charred vale]

try pod it?

[late halo]

Nope

Thats how i lost my TP

I thought so too.

[steel gazelle]

yea i have a few eggs with me 150. how long do you think that will take?

[stiff oxide]

depends on your rates

[charred vale]

usually it takes around 1 and half day on officials to raise 1

thats on 1x

[steel gazelle]

it's 4x right now so that would be like 1 day or less?

[charred vale]

if its 4x yeah

[steel gazelle]

how many camp fire do i need to ahte them?

don't have ac yet

[charred vale]

idk how many campfire, but try to lit them 1 by 1 until it says incubating?

or u can tame those Dimetrodon as AC replacement for hatching egg

[steel gazelle]

how many dimetrodon do i need?

[stiff oxide]

i used 1 dimetrodon and like 10-12 torches

indoors

[covert pier]

Anyone know how to find your character on Xbox?

[steel gazelle]

nice.

@covert pier you ahve to find the server you were last log off at

[covert pier]

[errant jewel]

Double check settings or check your GameUserSettings I'd say

[next fractal]

Still says my harvest is at 3x, where do I check gameusersettings however?

[errant jewel]

\Steam\steamapps\common\ARK\ShooterGame\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor

Search for HarvestAmountMultiplier. If it's not there, just add the line below to your [ServerSettings] section

HarvestAmountMultiplier=3.000000

Parasaur

[wise dragon]

That gives organic polymer

[toxic pumice]

Whenever i have discord open ark crashes and it gives this error: LowLevelFatalError [File:F:\build\LostIsland\Engine\Source\Runtime\Windows\D3D11RHI\Private\D3D11Util.cpp] [Line: 201]
Unreal Engine is exiting due to D3D device being lost. (Error: 0x887A0006 - 'HUNG')

[molten falcon]

Skill issue

[toxic pumice]

hmm

[solar agate]

I have an Ichthyornis that was doing well, but eventually decided to stop listening to whistle commands, and started fighting absolutely everything near it, and I can't figure out how to get it to stop flying around or anything

It still thinks it's a part of a whistle group, it just doesn't care

[dreamy folio]

Anyone else having issues with the Steam workshop?
I’m trying to look for new maps to play but when I filter by that type literally nothing shows up

[fickle hare]

Hey guys whats the deal with a sabertooth salmon fish with no weight that is off colored. what does it do?

[pale turret]

In the fjordur space biome, is there a way to make your tames land on the ground? Upon dismount they tend to just perpetually float, until a certain amount of time where they will land.. but this seems like hours until it happens.. any help with the mechanics are appreciated, thanks!

[keen sorrel]

What happened to uri

[pine token]

I have a fair number of fertilized eggs that have reached 100%. Is there a way to make it so that they can be eaten or used in kibble recipes?

[keen sorrel]

Don’t think so

[keen sorrel]

In an incubator? If you pick it up with an exo Mek they should drop into and Inv bag

If that still works*

[pine token]

Yes, via the Incubator. No access to a Mek. Is my only recourse now to hatch or crack?

I can move the eggs around via the S+ Omni tool, btw. I just can't eat them or cook with them given their status.

Cooker doesn't count them as viable

[hollow summit]

Level 74 start of day2 on wipr xp is 1.5x is cookibg pots the best way for xp? With a 2x rune and 100 crafted i gained 20k xp i need lrvel 100 asap anything eles i can do?

[latent coral]

Are tranquizer darts worth it?

I seem to be wasting a ton of resources trying to tranq these tames.

With arrows and darts.

[brazen robin]

depends on what you have.

arrows are more narcotic efficient but darts are faster.

[latent coral]

Ahhh so maybe a mixture of the two?

[brazen robin]

I wouldn't

[latent coral]

Ok what do you normally use

[brazen robin]

just pick one 🤷 I usually wait until I get a more damage % longneck before switching

the shocking tranquillizer darts only take bio-toxin to upgrade them tho, they do spoil so only make them when you want to use it :P

[hollow summit]

They spoil slow asf

[brazen robin]

yeh its 4 hours but still :P better to not have any spoil

[topaz finch]

I got a windmill... does that replace the electric generator that runs on fuel?

[brazen robin]

yes and no. it can but you'd need a bunch and wind changes

[topaz finch]

Oooh ok

[brazen robin]

the generator doesn't have any power changes and pretty sure infinite :P

[topaz finch]

I was curious because I can't find oil on ragnarok. And kinda stuck

[brazen robin]

https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Resource_Map/Ragnarok rag doesn't seem to have that many oil spots most are at the bottom of the ocean

I'd just kill tek dinos :P

[heavy moss]

how tf do i get better dinos

[topaz finch]

Thats what I've been doing lol

[brazen robin]

higher levels or by mutating

[heavy moss]

HUH?

muating what? there genders?

do i make them have babies

and do i steal the babies or what?

[brazen robin]

I'd watch a video on mutating dinos, it involves breeding.

[heavy moss]

ok

[stiff oxide]

they insulate eggs, not required tho

[latent coral]

Btw thank you @brazen robin for the help

[valid lava]

if i am in a tribe but they moved into a different server without me, how do i join that server?

@brazen robin

[brazen robin]

ask them what server. tribes don't cross server either will need to be invited to that one as well

[shy mauve]

everytime i join genesis 1 (im on a friends server) i join to either a black world or the floor is gone and im floating around.

if anybody could help id really appreciate

[tropic meteor]

Verify your game files

[shy mauve]

trying now

[molten falcon]

i bought a dedicated server from gportal, and we transferred maps from the island to fjordur 2 days ago. our dinos back at the island dont have enough food to survive for another day, so im wondering if i should go back to check on them or do the dinos at the island not lose any hunger (game paused on that map?)

what should i do

[shy mauve]

now its saying i dont own the dlc in game

[tropic meteor]

Might have to reinstall the dlc then

[molten falcon]

what does a generate alpha dragon portal do at the red obelisk do

[brazen robin]

it teleports you to the alpha dragon arena

[molten falcon]

is that good or bad

[brazen robin]

if you aren't ready bad

[molten falcon]

Good, you will get unlimited vbuck

[molten falcon]

You are always giving false information

[brazen robin]

[molten falcon]

what do you need to be prepared

A lotta good dinos

Its literally a boss fight

[brazen robin]

heavily mutated dinos. most use theri for dragon fights

[molten falcon]

ok

what do you get for beating the normal dragon teleporter

The gamma? Tek engrams and element

I think

ok

thanks

[sudden night]

I mf beat the monkey boss and then died from freezing damage

im so mad

[brazen robin]

yeah, tekgrams and some element. the trophy as well for the gamma tek cave on island

[molten falcon]

Lmao
Cheeseblock

[sudden night]

baby with beard

[molten falcon]

how hard is it to beat the gamma

[sudden night]

also is there any use for element dust on the island map (I have no dlcs)

[brazen robin]

for the most part you can do it with just tamed stats as long as you have good saddles (and theris need the veggie cakes)

you can also just cheese the fight with deinos :P their bleed works on bosses

[sudden night]

also can someone please answer this question ive been asking for weeks but never got an answer to:

Cavern of lost faith should have 3 crates in it when the crates respawn, but I ALWAYS only ever get a single crate if it spawns. I am on singleplayer and it's extremely frustrating and want to know what is causing this and if I can fix it.
Hibernation is off and I have waited way, way longer times than the 1.5 hour respawn time for the supposedly 3 crates but I always only ever see one.

[brazen robin]

singleplayer just sometimes doesn't work correctly

[stiff oxide]

you're allowed to bring 20 tames with you

[molten falcon]

Except for the fact they are not on the island

[brazen robin]

but dragon is on other maps :P and transfering exists

[stiff oxide]

i'm about to have eight 0/0 female deinons for mutating

[molten falcon]

I personally dont like transfering, probably just me

[brazen robin]

the game is designed with transferring in mind. just look at ext. you can get ab mats but you can't learn ab engrams :P

[molten falcon]

Dont care, lmao

[molten falcon]

how do i get the artifact of cunning, immune, skylord, and the strong?

[river wolf]

check youtube or the ark.wiki.gg

[stiff topaz]

if the server is running they're losing food

[molten falcon]

we are on the same server, so they are still losing food? is that what you mean

[stiff topaz]

If the map is running they are losing food

If you shut the map down they dont

time only passes ingame if the save is running

[stiff oxide]

are you on the island map?

[stiff oxide]

https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Explorer_Map/The_Island

[molten falcon]

ok

[molten falcon]

thanks

[nimble raven]

does anyone who plays modded know why i can passive gen eggs in soul terminals?

it says i have to change in server config

[molten falcon]

what are alpha raptor claws used for?

[brave raptor]

does anyone know any non dead na pvp servers

[last harbor]

how does cloner work? can i remove shards inside after starting the process?

it satrted and i removed the dino on top and i have shards inside, are they needed to complete it? or can i safely remove without losing clone?

[brazen robin]

pretty sure it uses the shards at the beginning any still in are extra

[whole palm]

Hey, I have small prob... I built a house when I was the only one in my tribe. Then I left the tribe... Now the house belongs to the tribe (with no on in the tribe)... even if I "rejoin" or "recreate" the tribe, I cannot access my house

[brazen robin]

do you have admin or on singleplayer?

[whole palm]

neither

[brazen robin]

you'd need to talk to the admins then

[last harbor]

will the clone come out owned by me?

or need to claiim

[brazen robin]

should I can't remember tbh

[brazen robin]

are you on officials?

yep

[dry ginkgo]

I have a question, i play on the microsoft store version of ark and whenever i go into a server, it says "please switch to the ark total conversion via main menu" when i try to do primitive plus

[brazen robin]

prim+ might be even more broken it barely works anyway

[last harbor]

prim plus is defo broken

[dry ginkgo]

whenever i hit options my game crashed too 💀

[last harbor]

so many bugs

great idea but was abandoend

just saving you the pain

[dry ginkgo]

aww

[brazen robin]

last I heard dinos stopped spawning so :P

[dry ginkgo]

damn

are they ever gonna fix it or nah

[brazen robin]

doubtful. ark 2 is gonna be prim anyway

[dry ginkgo]

oh ok

[haughty glen]

Hey im trying to do destorywilddinos and it isnt workin

[burnt flame]

Meatjerkey is taking an eternity to craft because it will craft every single cooked meat into jerkey all at once right? Surely it will not take literal irl days to craft just a few meatjerkey... right?...

[haughty glen]

Hey im trying to do destorywilddinos and it isnt workin

[stray summit]

use multiple bins and start the production early...

besides, it's not like you need a lot of it. Some for kibbles, but it really isn't more useful than cooked meat for travelling. That bit of spoilage isn't a problem, meat is abundant

[stiff topaz]

Half an hour so it’s not that long eith multiples. Also S+ may have a config for speed of crafting it

[burnt flame]

Do I have to fiddle with inis for that or something I can just set up in game?

[jovial star]

What cheat command are you using?

[stiff topaz]

Ini

S+ has it linked in ‘everything else about s+’ at the bottom of the description

[jovial star]

I thought jerky and beer were hardcoded

[winter oxide]

Quick breeding question, I got a mutated female and bred it with a clean male so the stat is now on a male. Does it matter that it now says 1/20 on the matrilineal side instead of the patrilineal?

[brazen robin]

no, as long as the male has it, its fine :P

in the ancestors menu, its just telling which of the parents had the mutation. it'll go back to patrilineal in the next generation.

[winter oxide]

Awesome thanks!

[burnt flame]

I'm trying to set up walls but on one of my 5 columns the height of the walls seem to be about 1/8 of a wall smaller than in the other 4, I tried to practically rip out any ceilings and other "old" walls from next to it but it just refuses to line up with the 4 column of walls next to it, any ideas?

Figured, the last column had no "ceiling" floor as it was where the stair comes up, and apparently ceiling blocks wedge a gap between how walls stack on top of each other.

[copper tartan]

Is there x frogs 🐸? Or only normal

On fjordur

[brazen robin]

X-frogs don't exist. only normal and aberrant

[copper tartan]

Oh

Thought there was x since there in genesis

[brazen robin]

I don't think aberrant frogs spawn on fjordur

[copper tartan]

Bruh ok I’ll get a boring normal one

[brazen robin]

gen1 and gen2 didn't only have X/R dinos on them unlike aberration where almost all were aberrant.

[copper tartan]

Yeah I thought since there’s a whole swamp the frogs would be x

[sudden terrace]

X frogs would be crazy cool

[untold lava]

can ark be installed on windows 11

[brazen robin]

yes, its the same as the win10 version. I think it should be called the microsoft store/gamepass version :P

[untold lava]

ok

[brazen robin]

lots of people do have issues on win11 but that isn't ark specific

windows 11 just has issues

[untold lava]

i also have a problem when trying to install it

[brazen robin]

does it give an error?

are you using the microsoft store or the xbox app

[untold lava]

it says error every 30 seconds

[untold lava]

Microsoft

[burnt flame]

Is there any purpose for duplicate blueprints like for items? Like, I know you can drop duplicate item finds you don't need into the grinder for resources, but is let's say you get two blueprint for the same thing altho with different %, should you just throw away the worse one or can you use them for something (in single player context)?

[brazen robin]

try using the xbox app if that doesn't work, try running wsreset. I don't have win11 so I don't know anything else 🤷

wsreset is a command for windows so should be on win11

[untold lava]

i sec i gott amake a ticket on a server

[brazen robin]

you can only use them for crafting. if its a worse blueprint they don't have a use :P only 3 things you need to worry about, the armor/damage, the dura (for applicable) and the cost.

[burnt flame]

Oh, cost scales differently, not based on the rolls of dura and armor(or whatever other "effect" stat)?

[brazen robin]

doesn't always go up right :P sometimes its insanely high for no reason

saddles have a hidden dura stat that is still effected and will raise the BPs cost :P but they all have a range for cost.

[sudden terrace]

The resource cost is random for bps right so theoretically a worse bp could cost more?

[brazen robin]

yeah, just like how a lower tier is sometimes better

ark likes ranges for RNG stuff

higher tier doesn't always mean better same for levels 😂

[sudden terrace]

Yeah I always get apprentice stuff better than journeyman stuff lol

[burnt flame]

I only got two ascendant items and both it <205%

[sudden terrace]

Oof

That's how it is sometimes

[burnt flame]

Why is it that sometime when I try to replace stuff (eg stone ceiling with metal) metal just start overlaping with stone instead of breaking it and snapping into it's place? Is this due to S+?

[brazen robin]

its due to ark being weird. structures especially

sometimes there are multiple snap points that look identical :P

[burnt flame]

Yeah, I seen the voodoo ritual shenanigans people have to do to build on uneven foundations in the base unmoded game. Here is hoping that it'll be something that's implemented better in Ark 2 if the devs didn't care to fix it in the first game.

[fair yoke]

Help, I am stuck, my game completely froze on me that I had to restart, just as I was dying from dehydration too, now when I try go back it's not coming up with join last session, it's only saying join, what do I do because I am in gen2 server but ported there from ragnarok, so of just do join I lose everything in both servers right? I did b4 but on single player.

[brazen robin]

well, I'm hopeful because I feel it'd be harder to make it worse 😂

[burnt flame]

🤣

[brazen robin]

sometimes the join last session doesn't work. just join the same server you were on last :P hope you remember the number

[fair yoke]

It has been over 30mins now and it's still not letting me rejoin the server and obvs I cannot go to main server as ported from there to server crashed in.

[brazen robin]

did the server crash or did you crash?

[fair yoke]

Does that work on official? I did that on sinle player and lost everything.

[lunar drift]

can someone help me in dms?

[fair yoke]

I crashed I think, game completely froze, I couldn't do anything so had to restart @brazen robin

[brazen robin]

you need to find your survivor. if its on a server thats down you need to wait

if its just your game that crashed you just need to find the server. sometimes the join last session button doesn't work

[fair yoke]

My tribe mate says my body is there, in the server, hes working base around it but I just cannot get in it.

[brazen robin]

try restarting ark again

and your xbox if its still not showing. remember to hold the power button for 5 seconds for a hard restart

[fair yoke]

Tried restarting ark like 3x, restarted cable twice tho not the hard restart.

I mean I know the server and the number, got it written down and starred as favourite but yea still nothing. Will try the hard restart tho.

[jovial star]

Also clear your bluray cache as well. I remember having to do so when i played xbox

[fair yoke]

Ok doing both now.

Ok time to find out if both worked, knowing my bad fortune, it hasn't and if so, I quit. Been nothing but trouble and stress and I know it's not my internet or problems with my xbox because everything else works just fine.

[latent coral]

Will turrets and generators work in the boats?

[coral hull]

Do i keep ark open while installing mods?

[jovial star]

Yes

[jovial star]

Depends on server settings

[fair yoke]

Did that and cleared cache and still no go, join last session still doesn't come up. Yet when look at my main server where my body is not, it says I can rejoin, yet my survivor is not in that server as went to gen 2 1648 to build base there and get diff dinos, thus my survivor is in gen 2 but won't allow me to rejoin.

[tropic meteor]

Heavy and tek turrets can’t be placed on rafts but normal generators and normal auto turrets and plant X will work.

[latent coral]

Awesome thank you

[burnt flame]

What is the optimal way to raid beavers for cementing paste?

Should I take the good stuff and yeet out the wood from the dams to demolish them and force them (or the game) to build a new dam with new inventory, or looted dams eventually regenerate loot and I'm hurting my efficnency by demolishing dams as that means less potential dam up at one time?

[tropic meteor]

Dams don’t regenerate loot, take everything out so new ones can respawn

[burnt flame]

I just found it weird how early in my run some spots used to have 2 or even 3 dams up at one time, but for the last week every spot only has a single dam.

[unkempt glacier]

Can you use desmo in Ab?

[slender ferry]

I think so

You can definitely uncryo them

Depends on the map but there’s a setting for length of day

[verbal brook]

its on extinction

and in trying to figure out the settings cause my days are going by way to quick

[stiff oxide]

i swear to god this is not a joke question

but why do i stay constipated after using a toilet in ark

[weak dawn]

Guys.
I don't get it.
Why my game just keep crashing every time I play.
Sooner or later, it doesn't matter.
It WILL crash and my PC just forced to restart.
Please help

[stiff oxide]

my character sounds so refreshed but the food icon is still gray

[stiff oxide]

because of the freaking mods

quit asking over and over if you're not gonna check the mods

did you try joining a server with no mods? does it crash then?

[weak dawn]

But u said I must post it in here,so I did what u told me to.

[stiff oxide]

lol that wasn't me but ok

did you try joining a server with no mods?

[weak dawn]

No.
I tried to play a single player without mod but it still crashes

[stiff oxide]

tell me what happens when you join a server with no mods

[weak dawn]

Ok.

[ashen sand]

What’s a good way to gain experience in pvp? Haven’t been playing that long and my aiming is abysmal

[distant nimbus]

[stiff oxide]

i have some deinonychus in 2 different decently-far spots on the map

when i select "copy settings to nearby deinonychus", it says at the top "copied settings to <total number of deinonychus i have in both spots> deinonychus"

did it really copy settings to the faraway ones too???

[molten falcon]

wait, they let you transfer desmodus to ab? 💀

horrible

[slender ferry]

Yea

[molten falcon]

terrible and horrible

[molten falcon]

you're absolutely certain? this official?

[slender ferry]

Yea, you can transfer every new creature onto the map

[abstract terrace]

Hello I would like to create my own clusters on my own machine. Do you know how much it would cost me for all the official maps and one unofficial one? What processor and how much ram do I need? Ect. Thanks in advance

[foggy talon]

I cant use the drop all button on my shadow mane

Nvm had to cryo and un cryo pod

[molten falcon]

they never let you do snow owls and other flyers

[slender ferry]

I’ve been able to uncryo them and the only flyer that appears after Ab are snow owls

Crystal Wyverns are just another type of Wyvern which is a SE dino

I could be wrong tho

[molten falcon]

tropeo also came after. I'll be sure to confirm on desmodus though

[agile crow]

Desmodus are meant to be a cave flyer, so they're able to fly on aberration

[molten falcon]

😭 i hate these things so much

[agile crow]

Wait till you discover the Andrewsarchus makes you immune to radiation in the saddle

[molten falcon]

?????

who needs balance

i guess

[untold lava]

tf

[molten falcon]

wc not destroying game balance challenge (impossible)

[foggy talon]

Can pugnacia be added to PS5

[molten falcon]

mods aren't on console

[foggy talon]

Ah

I was lied to

[molten falcon]

rip

[hollow summit]

Is there an iteam to see the hp of a wild dino?

[burnt flame]

Higher tier kibbles can substitute lower tier ones for the same effect, right?

[foggy talon]

Yes

[molten falcon]

So I could use extraordinary kibble for all dinosaurs and it would be the same if I used the correct kibble

[stiff oxide]

yes

[molten falcon]

baryon

[stiff oxide]

hola

[burnt flame]

Nice, ty. Then no idea who came up with the idea of superior needing cooked prime jerky, but fuck that I just make exceptional lol

[molten falcon]

wanna play pvp oficial duo?

[stiff oxide]

lol aw 🥺 i have enough to do on my server

[hollow summit]

If im lvl 78 on a 1.5x server whats the fastest way to get lvl 100?

[wispy ether]

Can I build a trap in the space biome and get a voidwyrm in it? And if I can, can I tame it?

[hollow summit]

Voidwyrm destroys all builds

Including tek

[wispy ether]

oh damn I see

[foggy talon]

Search up on YouTube how to tame a void wyrm
I suggest the YouTuber nooblets

So they theyre tamable

[untold lava]

ark will not install ive tried xbox app and windows store

[sudden night]

I really should get a breeding pair for otters, they keep dying >_>

[plush swift]

so how many have you lost so far?

[sudden night]

like 4

and to be honest I did savescum a few times so it wouldve been a lot more

[empty moth]

Does anyone want to team im on pc

[sullen hatch]

ask in #735196255483068497, not here

[sudden night]

does enabling pve mode prevent you from killing baby dinos?

[river wolf]

unclaimed ones, yes.

if friendly fire is on, you can kill them if theyre your creatures

[deft zodiac]

yea but you can still use mods such as SS or S+ on pc to kill them or just use a wyvern

[sudden night]

I guess ill disable pve mode while I breed dinos

only reason im using pve mode is to remove cryo cooldown >_>

really annoying there isnt a seperate option for it

[river wolf]

you can use the command clearcryosickness to remove any cryosickness from creatures and wake them ul

[sudden night]

feels wrong to use commands every waking moment though

[deft zodiac]

just use the dino storage mod , it removes the cooldown and it's better

[brisk gyro]

Enablecryopodnerf config setting

There's 2 other settings that also need to be set when using it

[sullen hatch]

no way to turn off cryosickness separately from pvp, that option is only for pve

[honest drift]

How much HP do you have to have on a moschops in general to to Desmodus taming with them?

[scenic pecan]

If you want a 150 desmodus then the moschops should have at least 5/6k health

[harsh vigil]

so i am planning to tame a rock golem soon and im wondering if cryopodding a parcer with the platform saddle will destroy the structure cuz itd save time if i could build a lil bunker beforehand

[haughty glen]

How do i kill a rock golem

[brisk gyro]

From my experience it will break it

[red olive]

Compound bows, or deinos are probably the easiest way

[molten falcon]

Yeah, structures on platform saddles get destroyed when cryo'd

[molten falcon]

Just kill it lol

[signal badge]

What is the best way to farm element on clusters?

[river wolf]

gen 2

[molten falcon]

Be good
Lol

[hollow summit]

Giga

[last harbor]

whats the best % crafting skill for an element gacha?

desiring element over items

[plain stag]

~162% to 164% is the max you want for items.

[hasty wolf]

Don’t use a para. Use a bronto or Megachelon. Those things are so strong they 2 tapped my Level 213 griffin

[river wolf]

was your griffin on 2 hp lol

megachelon and bronto damage is garbage

[idle owl]

Are magmas good for dragon gamma?

[next roost]

if u have a tribe just use rhinos

theriz are good too

[hollow summit]

Can a stego with 38k hp 550 meelee 100saddle kill a level 300 alpha carno and a level 200 alpha raptor at thr same time?

[river wolf]

probably not

[hollow summit]

Would a 15k hp 500 melee rex?

[compact stream]

Is there a way to make the game brighter at night

[hollow summit]

Options gamma correction

[pure pumice]

Have access routes to the central river on The Island all been blocked from access by rafts?

[compact stream]

I dont see that

[river wolf]

probably not

[hollow summit]

Left middle

[hollow summit]

Would the rex and the stego togetshrr?

[river wolf]

maybe

[compact stream]

I still dont see it

[river wolf]

pause your game, go to options and theres a little slider in the left called gamma correction

[hollow summit]

Left middle in options under graphics

[compact stream]

Graphics quality?

[last harbor]

162 to 164 is that for the raw resource, as in. element dust for example?

i dont want flaki items abd built weapons

[plain stag]

Yes. Don't go higher than 164% as the absolute max for the maximum resources cap

[last harbor]

awesome ❤️

i'll go 160 to be safe

[plain stag]

Try to get to 162 at least

[last harbor]

whats the difference?

160 to 162 in dust though

[plain stag]

Wiki suggests 161.something%, so I go 162 and get the cap for my dust gachas. There probably is not much of a difference. 165% and up nets you more items/armor than resources though

[last harbor]

how much does a gacha gem yield you

162

[plain stag]

I have boosted settings and mods so I am not sure if that changes the amount, I would have to look when I play.

[sudden night]

is there any use for element dust if you dont have any dlcs

[river wolf]

its transferrable element in a nutshell

[visual ether]

is it the crystalized sap that is the same as primal crystal?

[river wolf]

No

[visual ether]

my dust gachas max dust i've ever seen has been up to 180 dust per crystal

[last harbor]

you at 162%?

[river wolf]

crystalized sap are their respective gem colour, primal crystal is crystal but also food for crystal wyverns

[last harbor]

@visual ether

[visual ether]

these are stock cloned babys (low lvl)

but i did lvl up crafting to maybe help in production

[visual ether]

ya i was wondering if there is a substitute for the primal crystal that the gacha might be able to produce that would work for imprinting the crystal wyvs

[river wolf]

dont think they do

you can use a cryopod to reroll them so they dont want crystal for imprinting

[visual ether]

i coulda swear about a year ago someone gave me blue crystalized sap or something that did work instead of the primal crystals tho... i could be wrong tho

[river wolf]

highly doubt it but ig you can try

[visual ether]

ya or use a snow owl to heal them if they low on food/health works too but pia

i could be mistaken that the blue crystalized sap can be used in place of blue gems maybe and not the primal crystals

[deft zodiac]

no , it's only a substitute for the gems of aberration , there isn't any substitute for the primal crystal except the crystal but it obvsly can't be used to raise crystal wyverns

[visual ether]

thanks

[glossy citrus]

hello i’m new to the discord is this the best channel for me to be in for advice

is it possible to tame a raptor usinf just prime meat or do I need to make the required kibble

[brazen robin]

you can tame a raptor with any meat or the kibble they like (or higher) doesn't need to be kibble :P

[glossy citrus]

oh that’s good will 10 prime meat and narcoberrys tame a level 95

I’ve tried this a few times now and keep getting the same result

it just says ‘taming 0.0%’ the entire time

[river wolf]

you need to wait, it wont eat instantly

give it a few minutes at most

[glossy citrus]

yeah i’ll go carry on with what i was doing but i’ve tried to tame a raptor a few times and it has just woken up before anything happened

wait it’s actually taming nice

[brisk gyro]

They won't eat the narcoberrys on there own, you have to force them to eat them if there topar is getting to low and you think they will wake up before taming

[fringe rover]

Remember to use dododex to know how many narcos youll need

[stiff oxide]

@fringe rover what are you the ambassador of?

[main pawn]

How do I get the hlna skin to scan notes on Xbox?

[balmy bloom]

Anyone running alpha brood need tek turrets badly can pay with arb

[main pawn]

Looks like u just find a spot and numb into it

[brazen robin]

big sad with the white background :P

[fringe rover]

I CANT CHANGE IT OK

[stiff oxide]

one of the other ambassadors was from the official wiki or something

[fringe rover]

Alex? He isn’t an ambassador anymore
Genie is a wiki person tho

[molten falcon]

i got this give me like 20 minutes for a shittily cropped image

[brazen robin]

there is a version where it doesn't have the background :P

[fringe rover]

No theres a dark grey background but when I download it it turns white

Or yeah more accurately doesn’t have the background

Weve had this conversation before
many times

[brazen robin]

bet its the format. it defaults to white

[fringe rover]

I should just screenshot it

[molten falcon]

who made this again? was it BaK?

[brazen robin]

copy with the link

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/735188902603653201/845678910951522354/Ambassador_Dossier.gif

its a gif

[fringe rover]

YES

[brazen robin]

that white line 😂

[fringe rover]

Oops kept the scroll line in xD

You saw nothing

[molten falcon]

i see my shitty cropping skills are unneeded here

[brazen robin]

nope, perry got it handled

[molten falcon]

lol

[fringe rover]

My entire life’s goal
Its finally complete

[brazen robin]

did you know if you hover over it, its not the same color

[fringe rover]

Except the resolution isn’t great

[molten falcon]

it'll just get more compressed every time

[fringe rover]

Its the best I can get ok

[brazen robin]

lol, yeah your phones format seems to change the non-background to a white background :P

[molten falcon]

auto-jpeg

[jovial star]

This is the one i have

[fringe rover]

Bruh it works for you

[molten falcon]

can't tell if that's the same or better

[brazen robin]

thats a gif again :P

why these in gif format lol

[molten falcon]

pretty sure it's a gif for easy posting

[brazen robin]

ah

[molten falcon]

the star button etc

[brazen robin]

because of the favorite menu

[jovial star]

Was told this was the way

[sudden night]

speaking of ambassadors, do you guys maybe know if its possible to fix the fact that only one crate ever spawns in my cavern of lost faith (singleplayer)

[molten falcon]

prevent hibernation?

[jovial star]

Not our department sorry

[sudden night]

you already asked that before and I already said hibernation is off lol

[brazen robin]

singleplayer just has issues with loot crates 🤷

[molten falcon]

sorry, see a lot of similar questions lol

[jovial star]

Sp is an issue all its own

[sudden night]

why does it only have to be the most important cave in the game for me >_>

[molten falcon]

also yeah, sometimes sp just doesn't spawn them

[brazen robin]

singleplayer has issues that nothing can fix.
the spawns could've been removed as well.

[sudden night]

I want a darn rex saddle blueprint

[molten falcon]

try afking in there for like 12 hours or something

[sudden night]

🗿

[molten falcon]

go have a nice day while leavemealone'd in some remote area

it could work

[sudden night]

probably just afk in that one land section of the cave?

[brazen robin]

or use slomo

[molten falcon]

yeah

slomo may not work as well

[sudden night]

whats that

[molten falcon]

i've noticed time moves differently with it

not just sped up

[glossy citrus]

can someone help i’m trying to tame my first argentavis

[molten falcon]

use captain fatdog's trap (youtube) for an easy tame

[glossy citrus]

the prime meat keeps spoiling on me 0.0% through the tame

[stiff topaz]

?

[molten falcon]

use raw meat as well

[glossy citrus]

i’ve got him knocked out with the crossbow

[frail patrol]

i am VERY much convinced this IS teal department's job, or at least it was in the beginning.

[rocky flower]

what level is it?

[jovial star]

@stiff topaz this

[glossy citrus]

okay i’ll try

[glossy citrus]

level 100

[stiff topaz]

yes helping with this sort of thing is exactly what i got ambassador for lmao?

[jovial star]

To fix loot crate spawns on sp?

[molten falcon]

that was the whole thing

[frail patrol]

there's quite long delays on the crate spawns in SP, so much the other crates will decay, probably nothing you can do about it.

[jovial star]

But how can we help loot crate spawns?

[frail patrol]

to help with working the problem around, not alter the game.

[stiff topaz]

see: alex, see:person

[rocky flower]

if the prime meat is spoiling too fast use raw meat but let his food points drain down enough to eat right away, its called starve taming

[molten falcon]

a lot of the early ambassadors got it from being knowledgeable

[frail patrol]

if there's no way, it's more appropriate to say there's just none, not "not our department [to help you]"

[molten falcon]

alex, eclipse (eclipse got it a bit later), myrme

[stiff topaz]

explain why, as alex did. offer a solution, as Person did.

[frail patrol]

i've had it as a wiki admin, i don't count

[sudden night]

speaking of prime meat, I got so sick and tired of it cluttering the inventory that that is the only thing in the entire game I just changed the max stack size for. 🗿

[frail patrol]

Manav and BaK earned their teal as well though.

[molten falcon]

you were still knowledgeable :)

[stiff topaz]

not say 'its not our problem' when this is precisley what ambassador was for.

[molten falcon]

you literally rip info from the game itself

[glossy citrus]

he’s probably gonna wake up soon anyway think I’ve missed my chance, he’s been knocked out awhile but i’ve got fresh prime meat and raw meat so will try once more

[molten falcon]

missed bak getting it, they were a mod by the time i got here

[fringe rover]

Alex is a criminal smh

[jovial star]

Single player is borked beyond. Sorry i was rude. Ill leave now.

[frail patrol]

i forgot about Perry but he's recent

[stiff topaz]

im the criminal 😭

[rocky flower]

what was the question or problem asked about?

[fringe rover]

You both are

[molten falcon]

no you weren't rude

[hasty wolf]

There should be more Argys nearby, they spawn in groups. Just kill those

[rocky flower]

use narcoberries or narcotics to keep him asleep

[molten falcon]

far from it

[frail patrol]

it's always awkward when i report bugs like that 🥲

[stiff topaz]

it wasn't rudeness. just saying it's not our thing when that's EXACTLY what our thing is

[molten falcon]

lol

[frail patrol]

i'm blaming it on a simple misreading. you weren't rude

[molten falcon]

"how did you find this bug?"
"..."

it's like breaking into someone's home and reporting tax fraud lmao

[rocky flower]

i've never had issues on SP but if its about the prevent hibernation, you can't in single player, that's only available on a dedicated server

[stiff topaz]

you can. it's a launch option. it's just ALWAYS on in dedi.

[frail patrol]

i'd say breaking into a tax office, stealing their stuff, reporting a tax fraud next day

i've not been detained yet

[stiff topaz]

yet

[frail patrol]

hopefully never

[glossy citrus]

is there any advantage of tek dinos compared to their counterpart?

[stiff topaz]

then who would get my spawn data 😭

[rocky flower]

i've been playing ark on steam and xbox since day one, its never been a launch option afaik and i just got off single player a bit ago

[visual ether]

hey guys, a question for the breeders out there..
whats the best way to raise when an event starts/stops in regards to getting full imprints? when do you cryo/uncryo so as not to mess up the imprint timers when events start or stop?

[molten falcon]

spawn one difficulty level above

[frail patrol]

20% higher level possible in the wild. nothing beside it.

[molten falcon]

that and they drop metal etc

[stiff topaz]

i have been running with hibernation prevented for 2+ years

[glossy citrus]

oh right okay

[sudden night]

max level for tek dinos is still 450 right?

[frail patrol]

why's your game high

[frail patrol]

yup, on official servers.

[molten falcon]

yep, though the limit doesn't exist on sp

[rocky flower]

ah you mean a steam launch command

[molten falcon]

not unless you set it yourself

[jovial star]

All i say is i dont know every thing to solve issues in game. Sorry i didnt say it a little nicer. Next time ill just say idk and move on. Anyhow have a nice day all.

[stiff topaz]

xD i was told years ago it might help with.. some performance issue i had, maybe the cpu bottleneck even. ran it since tho i never noticed much difference

[molten falcon]

you were fine, nobody's like blaming you or anything

[rocky flower]

this is true, even i set my game high in the launch commands on steam but i have to still manually set it to high in the task manager

[stiff topaz]

just specify that you don't know, rather than blanketing all the ambassadors who do exactly that thing on a daily basis

[molten falcon]

people in here aren't childish enough to hold a grudge or anything

..usually

[rocky flower]

@stiff topaz when you said launch option i thought you meant as a option in the SP settings not via steam launch commands

[molten falcon]

people gain ambassador for a variety of reasons.

[jovial star]

I honestly do see how that statement read now.

[molten falcon]

knowledge, involvement with the community, a bunch of other things i can't remember

wiki

[stiff topaz]

nope, shit on the menu i just refer to as 'menu options' or just the ini

[rocky flower]

i wish i could get ambassador honestly, as much as i stream this game and know about this game

[rocky flower]

oh ok nice to know lol

[molten falcon]

if you're active enough they just reach out iirc

[frail patrol]

dododex

[stiff topaz]

Yeah might have just been a misunderstanding

[frail patrol]

it's probably going to happen less without blue now.

[jovial star]

Sorry

[stiff topaz]

It's fine, just.. wanted to calrify

[frail patrol]

don't be sorry, there's nothing to be sorry for

[rocky flower]

i've been active for the longest time but i guess i still have to wait then which is fine with me

[molten falcon]

Any setting on PS4 to make my game less laggy

[rocky flower]

what current settings do you have?

[molten falcon]

Pvp

Settings

[rocky flower]

it could be your gather rates might be a bit too high

[molten falcon]

real shame blue left, hope someone else on the admin team/from wc starts being more active in the community at least

Hmm

[rocky flower]

either for the player or dino

does it happen whenever you harvest or any specific actions?

[rocky flower]

blue left? when?

[molten falcon]

blue isn't with wc anymore

we have no further info

[rocky flower]

i thought jen was the only one who left WC

[molten falcon]

jen was the previous community manager

[rocky flower]

did that help any?

[rocky flower]

yea i know i knew her pretty well lol i'm a content creator

[molten falcon]

i'm sure many people have come and gone over the years

[plain stag]

Bluestone just is no longer with WC and that's all the info we have.

Back to ingame help for this channel please ❤️

[rocky flower]

sorry country

didn't realize that happened

[meager tree]

for some reason my game wont update to the latest patch, its on an older version suddenly and ive no clue how to fix this

reinstalling would suck because it took over 20 hours to download

[rocky flower]

try verifying your files

[molten falcon]

Bro

[meager tree]

trying that now, hopefully it works. Idk why it happened my game was fine yesterday

[plain stag]

Definitely try verifying first. Reinstalling should be a last resort.

[molten falcon]

Ark is dying

[rocky flower]

unfortunately that's just the way it works with ark, its a massive game

[rocky flower]

how so?

[meager tree]

ill cry LOLL

[molten falcon]

Wym how

[plain stag]

Look in here as well and see
https://support.survivetheark.com/hc/en-us/articles/360008242814-Troubleshooting-and-Common-Solutions-

[molten falcon]

PS4 servers are dead now the only servers popping are

Ruin/lords/doom

[plain stag]

If you need to rant about ark, please move to another channel and keep this one on ingame help ❤️

[rocky flower]

i mean how is it dying cause its literally not dead on Xbox nor steam, i can't speak for PS version since i don't own it

[molten falcon]

Should see it lol

Ark need to fix blue screen spots

Wer you can’t disconnect in a certain spot but ps meta op

[plain stag]

Make sure to send in #bug-reports for specific PS issues as well

[rocky flower]

kind of makes me curious about the PS version honestly

[meager tree]

oh god the validating is broken even

[rocky flower]

how so?

[meager tree]

id show a screenshot if i could

[rocky flower]

DM it to me

[meager tree]

[rocky flower]

oh give it a bit of time, best to leave it on overnight and let it do its thing

[meager tree]

😭

[rocky flower]

i'm sorry critter i wish i could help more but for me to i would need the PC in front of me to do so

i'm better with hands on fixes

[copper tartan]

does r variant of stuff have any difference besides color patterns?

[rocky flower]

yes it does

[stiff topaz]

3% less health, 5% more melee

[placid hawk]

The server hasnt reset, so why would it be having me make a new character?
