Replace override 5 with 6 I think. I'm not an expert with the ini and all that though, you might be able to find someone more skilled in #unofficial-setup-help .
that's correct, @celest oxide
follow the pin, just replace override 5 with 6 for max level 180
so i just do overrideofficialdifficutly=6
and its done?
do a dino wipe afterwards too
how do I do that?
how do I get commands lol
press tab
That’s the inventory key….
I know, but only serial killers don’t change it to inventory like every other game in existence
I guess I'm a serial killer
fear me 
ark uses too many keys for me to be assed to change everything
Only 1 key needs changed
for inventory to be tab, I'd need to change command key
for which I'd need to put it to somewhere else, probalby some key that's already used, so now I need to remap THAT
I slapped mine on F11. Idk what was there originally but I never used it so it’s obviously not important
One more issue, I have s+ installed and i am placing s+ campfires down, but I cant pick them up
Hold down N and it should bring up a gun with several functions. One of them is a demolition gun. It’ll either pick up or destroy anything you shoot. If it’s red it’s gonna destroy, you just reload it and it’ll switch to black which picks up.
there's an INI to enable structure pickup
I can't remember it but it's in https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Server_Configuration
huh wait what, cooked prime meat tames a thylacoleo faster than regular prime meat or even mutton?
ye
wait it gets even worse normal cooked meat is better than cooked prime meat
cooked mutton is the best but even then it's really shit, kibble is pretty much the only good choice
I think you're looking at the wrong thing
Tames faster but with lower efficiency
it prefers cooked over raw, but the order remains the same
still weird though, are there any other dinos that prefer cooked meat?
and even then you'll want to only use kibble, anything else destroys TE
lamb chops are ravager's preferred food (they don't prefer other cooked variants more),
nothing else I remember atm though
eh I only lose 2 levels with my taming speed if I use cooked lamb on a 150
damn how high is your taming speed
sp settings have 2.5x, with 3x of that it's 7.5
3 with sp settings enabled is 7.5
huh weird
I don't like taming speed that high, I'd rather change hunger rate for wild dinos
also what is the healing amount cooked lamb chop gives
I've heard its 10 but also 100 from others
why that
it reduces the penalty from weaker taming foods along with making the tame faster, which removes the point of things like kibbles
with just changing hunger rates kibble still keeps its purpose while you can tame things faster
but I thought if you increase hunger food drain it also makes tameds eat more which is annoying
there's separate ones for tamed and wild dinos
alright
does anyone know the healing of lamb chops though, I keep hearing conflicting information
It’s more than 10
If eaten by a survivor, Cooked Lamb Chop replenishes 100 health and 35 points of food.
alright
alright-ish, not that good
I'd say worth taming though
thats good to know, because so far I heard it's 10 from the old wiki back when I first looked at it and never ate cooked lamb chops despite having tons of it in my previous playtrough because I thought it was just straightup worse than cooked prime meat
Oh, can you check stats without knocking smthin out? Without mods
but if it is indeed 100, thats insane
on gen 1 and 2, using HLNA
not on the other maps though
but I thought since you were asking you had the mods
Ohh nah I had an unconscious one and I used the stat calculator
welp I guess I am switching to lamb chop in the future instead of prime meat
Gives the same amount of food but it can heal you more, cooked prime meat regenerates 25 hp
32 is still 7 points above average at that level. I’d tame it in a heart beat. You’ll likely get close to 50 base points in the stat after tame.
welp at least it's good I discovered it now instead of like 10 playtroughs later I guess
still bummed out, couldve saved me so many times
So it's a female tek rex, should I use that for breeding?
And do I find a high level male with good melee? Cuz her melee is absolutely garbage
You’ll use it to start a line. Don’t be picky when looking for a stat, if you see another tek rex close to max level knock it and check it’s stat regardless of gender. If you find one with good melee tame it even if it’s another female and then just tame the first male you come across. You’ll then use breeding to get both stats onto one male and one female.
Ooooh okay this definitely gives me smthin to do
Thank you
No problem feel free to reach out with any questions
any tips for kibble btw, because usually by the time I have enough females to lay eggs for kibble I already am at the point I tamed most things I wanted kibble for >;l
I do have egg laying speed on 1 though
This is common. I don’t even use kibble below superior. The reason being I set up argy breedlines, then boss tame breed lines meaning by the time I’ve got a farm going I’ve got access to exceptional and extraordinary eggs.
I did discover recently that moschops give superior eggs which is kinda nutty to thing about
but sadly I see almost no moschops on fjordur
I think they’re good for fiber and poly
yeah moschops are amazing gatherers too
Is imprinting affecting the dino stats even if not ridden? For example in boss fights?
yes, it increases stats by 20% at 100% imprint
also the issue is kibble is so hard to make earlygame, regular kibble already requires crops, and superior kibble uses prime meat jerky and tree sap which can be a pain earlygame
Mutation is completely random, right? I got a purple Rex 😂
finally found a 150 thyla, but it has a terrible stat spread >_>
any time i hatch a egg they grow up before imprint is ready. is this cause of settings?
yes
what setting would that be? the mature time?
The maturation rates and imprinting intervals settings has to be balanced
as in?
growing up too fast is maturation speed, imprint timer being too long is cuddle interval
Depends on whats your maturation rates
Decrease the imprint intervals rates lower than 0.5
will that speed it up?
You will get imprint time shorter
okay cool thanks
im glad yall helped me relize this before we started boss tames but after are caving wolfs were done 😛
You have to test it out, even some faster maturation dinos might even mess up. That's why my own server I only used x4 maturation
You didn’t figure it out they informed you. Credit where credits due and all that.
That may have sounded meaner than intended lol
kinda did but you also have a point lol.
I love how common maewings are on fjordur
It was meant to be a light friendly jab, not the spit in the face it came off as I promise.
any way to remove creatures like pegomastax that stole like 1 item once out of the taming tracker
its annoying I have to travel 5km to kill it if I want to get it out of the darn tracker
You could just untracked it
still stays in the list then tho
also are honey rocks the only source of honey in fjordur? I havent seen any beehives in the redwood firest
or anywhere else for that matter
They will dissappear from list eventually when the taming is reset
There's 2 bee hive caves in the map, 1 is in the redwood
Those are easy honey sources without having to tamed giant bee
alright
guess ill hunt for the cave after I first increase the stack size of honey .-.
How cold is the Megapithecus Arena? Is Fur Armor enough?
what map are you fighting him on
The Island
Have 19 Rexes and one Yuty, all fully imprinted with 20k and 400% melee more or less
just the clothes is the thing for me atm
I'm assuming you're only doing beta or gamma?
Gamma
yeah should be good
Okay
the army, not the clothes
Yea
Are beaver dams supposed to randomly despawn?
No you gotta destroy them or they won’t
Respawn
@naive dust Sooo they shouldn't randomly despawn?
No they shouldn’t
Something about wyvern egg spawns? All holes are just empty
is there a limit on creatures for world bosses on fjordur?
I don't believe so
Are greenhouses worth building??
yeah, definitely
you need 20 greenhouse structures to get a full greenhouse effect
When the transfers go live can you transfer a dino in a cryo pod or do they need to be out of it?
a 3x3 can achieve that easily
you can transfer in a cryopod afaik
Awesome, thanks
No just go and raid people for loot
... aren't you the dude who was shitting on pvp a couple hours ago?
I play single player because I can't be assed with people wrecking my stuff
but keep in mind they can be destroyed by any creature so I prefer to have the greenhouse layer after one layer of stone structures so random dilos don't hit the greenhouse
Also because I've put a decent amount of hours in and I'm still not sure I understand how it works yet 😂😂
yeah it can take a while, take it slow
I'd be such an easy target 😂😂
Turret walls are mid what's the best way to defend yo base
From creatures or players??
Why would u need a turret wall to defend against creatures???
Some of them rage and just wreck everything around
...
What they gonn wreck
Turret wall won't allow them to age they'd die quick
🤷🏻♀️
is there by any chance complete tp comands for tresure chests on fjordur?
can someone help me to lvl up my character i have lvl 1
cant launch game after waiting for a while
cryptographic services is taking a lot of disk
when I was transferring dinos from crystal isles back to the island my game crashed, and the dinos arent in the terminal. any way to get them back?
Do you use the Dino Storage mod?
You'll have to revert to a backup, put them in the obelisk, and then out the savefile back to the current one
and dinos crashing on download is very, very frequent. dino slots arent safe to transfer with
how many level 180-200 rexes would i need toi kill megapitichas on the island?
you can only bring a maximum of 20 dinos
oh
need to get better stats on those rexes
and breed+stat combine+imprint them (if you don't want to mutate)
where did you last leave it? go to the general location of where they were and spam follow all whistle
and if you see an argy always spy glass it, you never know if thats your argy.
i found it by going inot spectator mod
then when i exited spectator mod i got respawn menu and when i got back there i couldnt find any of my stuff
my highlevel gear all gone
How rare are high level deinonychus eggs? I must have raided like 30+ eggs and found only 3 above level 120
as rare as every other high level dino
Um. I just got.. stuck in a titanosaur.... Do I dismount my shadowmane?
kill it
but I can't because I'm stuck in a jumping animation
oh.
it's ok I escaped
👍
How do i enable the primitive+ dlc on non dedicated?
Can any 1 run me master controller on gamma pve official? Just need someone to start it have my own army
Previous arkpoc wipe i lost 3 bloodstalkers to anti meshing lol
Hey, guys. I'm a player that comes and goes over the years, always on dedicated solo maps, and always quits out of frustration because the same keeps happening again and again. Hope some people can give me advice that helps me enjoying this game a bit more
So what usually makes me quit is randomly getting spawn-killed by some random raptors. Ive tried to adjust and change my playstyle multiple times over the years. I like to explore the game to a certain degree, so I usually avoid tutorials that are too detailed. Anyway..
The usual thing Ive read is "tame and breed some dinos to help you fight". And this time I tried to focus on that. Built a basic base, made a 4x4 place for some dodos to lay some eggs, have a small farm with rockarrot and some other stuff for other kibbles, make an environment thats well insulated, just to finally start breeding some triceratops - which already took me like 7 ingame days (on standard settings).
So Ive played the whole game for I-dont-know-how-many-hours just to get to a point where I could start breeding, was lucky enough to fend off the occasional raptor, and then got smashed by a bunch of terror birds that were randomly walking by - cant outrun them to "bait them away" like it was suggested sometimes in the past with other dinos, cant fight them, cant get close to my base to get some weapons.
I feel pretty helpless at this point. I want to be self sufficient enough to keep playing, exploring, taming and discovering the map with all that stuff that I was never able to experience because I just never managed to get out of the "prologue" of my own game.
Where do I start? How do I recover? Is my playstyle just not viable? What can I do?
What map are you on?
Fjodur - the new one
where do you live on there
if you're near a spawn zone, you could bait them by spawning and then getting aggro from the default spawn area
Hmmm
Fjordur is really cold to start out with and there can be a lot of dangerous things on beaches, I personally think its a pretty harsh learning curve for a beginner
I’d recommend playing the island first, it’s basically made for beginners and works really well
I tried multiple spawning points and camps. My last attempt was around 40:50 I think (if thats how you write down positions in this game)
so right in the middle?
pretty much - dont think there are spawning points nearby. Would need to run for quite a bit
honestly, the birds are the reason I'd recommend building on a cliff or in a cave
fjordur has a ton
Yeah, it took me quite a few attempts just to learn of how to not die on the first night due to the cold
they can eat your death cache
You can try using one of the natural structures as a barrier too, like the castles or houses
Well, I didnt manage to explore the map even remotely to find some caves - and dont want to google it either. Think I saw some cliffs more to the east of my last base though
thanks discord
honestly fjoirdur's spawns are all pretty brutal
Again: Didnt had the opportunity to explore much. And I didnt even know that there wer some structures.
Is this the general key to my survival? Just finding a really good place for my first base?
for a starting player, I'd recommend Island. it actually has safe zones, and has a more pronounced progression of difficulty and resources
Anyways you can try to progress to stone as quickly as you can, if you can get stone dino gates around the area that you live then youll be pretty secure
That being said, you should always start out on beaches
If you’re fine with cheesing things a bit, getting a pteranadon as soon as you can will get rid of a very large amount of dangers
Yeah, I either get burned or freeze to death - like I mentioned: took me a while just to start surviving the first nights
Fjordur with rexes and terror birds on beaches:
It's not Aberration level brutal but it's hardly kind
That are the flying things at all the coasts, right? You mean just fly around and scout to find a proper place for my first base?
Generally all beaches work out well as starting spots but like eclipse said fjordur is kinda brutal
I did find a good spot near a shipwreck that didnt have anything too bad, its around here-ish
Yeah, but I was able to outrun the one rex that came by. Managed to bait him away quite far. Terror birds are not so slow sadly
Yeah they’re the flying triangle headed creatures, you can use them for practically anything early game as long as it has good enough stats
They’re an option but like I said its definitely a bit cheesing to use them
Think I remember the shipwreck. Might try that place again. But do I get it right that the general idea of surviving these dinos is just to get a good location?
And if so: Why is a cliff or a cave a good location?
Not much attacks when you’re on the side of a cliff, and if you block the spawns and entrance in a cave nothing really can get in
And yes early game you just need to be in a spot that’s relatively peaceful
I thought massing triceratops was a good idea since they seemed to be pretty tanky. But my two 60ish triceps got rekt by 3 15-20 terror birds for some reason
Maybe the birds are better then
birds like to swarm
Makes sense
Did the trikes have saddles?
before boss arenas, the funniest strat for broodmother was a dimetrodon swarm
Try to tame high level stuff (100+ early game)
it gives armor
50% damage reduction for a primitive saddle
is it really 50? wow
Ah, I usually just gave one of my tames a saddle and be done with it
yeah, that's not a good idea for combat
Alright, first step: get a proper location. What do I do next? Getting to the point of breeding does seem to take quite a while, and the breeding process itself will take even more time I reckon.
Yep but it isn’t linear (this is for player armor iirc which works a bit differently but the same concept)
mmm horrifying math
Its actually not too bad
the funny curve
I bet you could learn it
Diminishing return, thats the big word for it
$5 usd
I’m not taking that bet
Yeah, that was the plan. Stat-breeding sounds too complicated for me currently. And I should get the birds instead of triceps. Arent the birds pretty frail compared to them? What makes them so good?
get both
Honestly earlygame? Anything and everything you can get
fair enough
The birds are speedy and they shred
Guess thats a boss - never managed to deal with something like that, but we'll see.
Are there these treasures that give a lot of xp like on the island btw?
On Fjordur
yes
the runes
glowy red things
there are 200
collect 100 for +5 max level cap, collect the other 100 for +5 again
Alright, sounds excessive but at least I'll find quite a few of them randomly I guess. Cool. Will try this whole thing again tomorrow and see how far I'll get this time
Thanks for all the help guys
🙂
why don't thatch triangle roofs exist, my entire build has a thatch roof but now I gotta use wood for one darn part >_>
also speaking of roofs, is it possible to create an overhang somehow?
and furthermore, is it just me or are triangle roof glitchy beyond hell, its nearly impossible to place them properly with them flickering from positions 10 times a second
why dont i have the lay on bed option?
how do i make 20 dinos get xp fast at the same time?
lystro
oh i forgot the quick part
kill baby gigas, won't be entirely synchronized but oh well
dont have a giga breading pair
why dont i have the lay on bed option?
well i have to take them in grups but i still need a shit ton of levels
mby the redwood cave on fjordur?
Managed to beat Gamma and Beta Megapithecus and on Alpha all my dinos died rip
got too greedy fml
wow I've searched everywhere for ways to have a roof overhang and couldnt find answers anywhere and now ages later I finally find it and it turns out that its just to place a ceiling, place roof next to itand then remove the ceiling
_>
does almost no one else know about this or something?
With PS4 there is a bug where you can't lay on bed for whatever reason but if you reload the game it should work. It also happens if something is obstructing the bed
I forget, is having owned DLCs actually installed required for utilizing engrams, or only for playing on the respective maps?
is there a way to get items back from anti mashing? I was by myself and it killed me I guess
man its so frustrating that once one layer of your base is made out of triangle (foundations), every layer you expand you can only use triangle structures pretty much :l
Don’t even need to own them
Thanks. (I did search, but wasn't sure if what I found was up-to-date)
What did you bring with for alpha?
Tbh it was obvious that I wont make it but still tried haha after Beta I had 14 Rexes and one Yuty left
Had like 1/5 hp when my last dino died
How built are you rexes?
Most of them 20k hp and around 500-600 melee
Bunch of missions bred in?
Did a rollback, gonna heal up a bit more and get my remaining rexes
Mutations*
I mean I almost took it down with 15 dinos, should be quite easy with 20 and similar stats
Ok thanks
Does anyone know what it means when there is a red aura around a trike's head?
There's a large carnivore nearby. I think they call it a rival buff
They are raging so they will attack everything around
@serene parrot but it's not attacking anything. it's just wondering around.
@rare berry perhaps @wind escarp is correct then. I was kind of guessing 😅
I don't think that red aura indicates agro, just that they're aware of danger of some kind
Ah, found this in a search
When larger carnivores are nearby, the Trike will emit a buff that increases it damage output, reduces damage taken and increases health by 10%
How long do I have between baby rock drake heals with a snow owl before it dies?
No, I'm not using venom, yes I can get venom. I just want to check the method and not lose anything.
anybody have settings that make it so high level creatures take under an hour to tame and babies will both grow fast enough for me to exist outside of ark and grinding for recourses is at a minimum
I have heard that Therizinos are great for the Dragon because the fire does less damage to herbivores. Idk how true that is but i could be worth a shot
Either that or super mutated Deinonychus cuz Deinonychus bleed is percentage based I think
need help with ark error message for fjordur: Ensure conditionfailed: false [File:F:\build\LostIsland\Engine\Source\Runtime\CoreUObject\Private\UObject|Obj.cpp] [Line: 688]
Unsupported context object of class SpawnManager_C (SuperClass(es) - Object). You must add a way to retrive a UWorld context for this class.
I dont even have a lost island file or the map downloaded currently
Have you verified the game? Could also be related to a mod.
whats the difference between difficulty offset and override difficulty
The second to last pin in this channel explains it a bit (although not as comprehensively as I've seen elsewhere)
I’m fairly certain they’re essentially the same thing, but override allows you to go higher than offset.
they are different. override difficulty directly sets the difficulty value. while offset changes it based on the maps default
I believe some are 4(120 max level) some use 5(150 max level)
long story short, always use the override rather than offset.
wiki says that island, scorched, aberration and gen2 use 4.0 and the rest use 5. not sure if thats true but there you go :P
You can use sweet cakes on them which makes them heal fast
So i am taming a level 180 pachy, Dododex says it takes 40 mejoberrys with my rates but it only took 15
im confused
Its not really an issue i just want to know why thats the case (singleplayer)
most likely singleplayer settings
Single player settings is likely checked and increasing things further
Probably cause of the 3x I think
Checked in the world settings?
It’s a check box, can’t remember if it’s in general or advanced
EVO rates don't effect singleplayer
Oh-
Someone can help ?
You mean in game or something?
If so, would probably want to hit up the recruitment channels or something
in game
My friend came to my server, and idk why our dinosaurs in cryopod are lvl 1
Are pelagornis spots or sleeping bag spots aloud on official
ok
Anyone know why ps4 servers are so dead rn
PlayStation network is having issues atm
why are forges slightly sideways by default when trying to place them? this is so damn annoying >_>
How uncommon is it to get all male baby’s?
Not quite uncommon but there was a time early in my Rex line that I got a health mutation and just could not get it on a male. Took nearly 50 eggs. I’d either get a female with the mutated stat or a male without the mutation, and it was 8-14 hours between fertilized eggs. Nearly broke me.
Yeah I got 4 theriz eggs all males in including a egg with twins and a eh with triplets
Just need females for my egg farm
How many tranq arrows will a level 20 giga take to knock out
Breeding on official is rough
Check dododex.
136 with a 100% crossbow
am I doing something wrong or does the snow owl dive attack do no extra damage? unlike the griffin's for example
I don't think it's supposed to
i got ask official apocalypse is crosspaly with pc and xbox?
hi I looking for a tribemate to give my pve base to. its intermidiate and a good base to start if ur a bob. Fjord map
Official/Unofficial/Non-Dedicated server?
Plz help
Restart your internet router and your computer
Are u sure?
Sounds like you’re having a problem with your internet communicating with your computer
Yea I’m sure lol
I will try wait
so did I miss something or is the super important realm cave in fjordur not actually marked as a "?" on the map?
and speaking of that cave, you can't enter it with a flyer so you cant bring flyers with you without cryopods if you are on a non- R teleport server
Nothing happened 😪😪
flyers can't fly in realms anyway. flyers can follow you into caves tho 
wait fr? damn I didn't find any info about that flyers don't work in the realms on the wiki
wouldve been nice if I knew earlier
only the desmodus can fly in caves :P
any other info I should know about the realms
that includes the realms
oh damn there is no map for the realms too ;-;
not that I know of
the ice realm is really cold lol 
yeah, heard there isn't a way to have a map change ingame.
thats the only other thing I know about realms, that apparently the ice realm is the coldest area in any map
and that new creatures spawn here that dont spawn in the main map ofc
rock drakes and shadowmanes are in asgard :P
also are mobs higher level here in general?
I see a lot of high level enemies
and tbh when I teleported here I thought the yellow realm would be a desert
don't think so. just RNG
besides special spawns (cave, wyverns, rock drakes, etc) levels should all work the same
I'm glad its not a desert. deserts are bad. why I like Val :P
man if only regular metal nodes looked like this, this is so cool
oh I just found my first ever gasbag, seen them in videos but I have no idea what they do, its an R too
they are semi-flyers (I believe they work in caves :P)
this one did inhale a bunch of air but never took flight when I attacked it
sometimes they are dumb lol.
they have a ton of weight.
weight capacity I assume?
one of the few dinos that oxygen is important on them :P
yeah, don't think it has any weight reduction 
found a strange cave with metal walls with blue in it
oh it has wyverns, nevermind Im out
the fact I cant use a map is scary but at the same time it also gives me some major explorer vibes
Does anybody have a fix for the purple flashes that some people get with Gnasty's kibble vending machine? Also, does anyone know if there are any other mods like Tiias color scanner that are still maintained?
@brazen robin when is a good time to explore the realms btw, because I havent even got a fabricator yet but I do have a good thyla
don't think there is any tech requirement. thylas are good tames.
besides snow of course :P
I killed like 4 alpha raptors but got the exp for only one of them because bleed killed the other 3 >_>
kinda annoying glitch
so I knocked down a argy in the realm, left the realm and now it does not show up in the taming tracker
does the tracker glitch or just not work for creatures in other realms or did the argy die the moment I left by something else, or did leaving the realm maybe kill it?
I don't think it works if you leave the realm
won't on singleplayer. caves (realms as well :P) unload when you leave.
man I placed my base in a random cool location and later I discover there is metal and a massive amount of beaver damns right next to the base, I am so damn hyped
and even later I discover even more beaver dams lmao
and how rare are high level deino eggs? I've raided over 40 of them and only found like 3 over level 120
As someone who spent like 40+ hours fishing, dont. fishing is agony. pain. hell. the only place its kinda worth doing it is in singleplayer because if a fish randomly kills itself, which happens a lot, you can at least reload the savefile to back before it died
when you catch a large fish, you can get great loot yes, but be prepared to spend over 10 hours trying to catch that one fish, ignoring the time it takes to find said fish in the first place
also the larger the fish, the better the loot is, issue is, that any fish above 2.2 size is almost physically impossible to catch while fish below 1.8 aren't worth catching I'd say
normally I'd hate people using stuff like this but at this point I genuinely almost suggest using a script for high tier fishes because they are just comically impossible to catch normally, with that I mean both the fish AI being beyond broken at times and the minigame being nigh humanly impossible for fishes above 2.2 in size
How do I get the S+ irrigation pipes to snap to foundations?
Why can't I find Thalys in crystal redwood
They can be hard to find but you just have to look at the big unharvestable redwood trees. I’ve seen many Thylas spawn over by the Wyvern Heir Kingdom too
Damn. Go to the desert where the Wyvern Kingdom is, I know for a fact that they spawn there
If there aren’t any good levels, just kill them and go out of render distance and more should spawn
I cant ride my tapejara anymore it only lets me go on the backseat or front seat
Ive tried restarting the game and taking away the saddle
What should I do
BLDX SIN 76561198142678531 wipe me on abberation ... i'm a bob alone ... and he used my steam ID and say , i'm come to you next week when i'm borred... i'm looking for a tribe from legacy and i still allways alone playing some times with my girlfriend and old friend stoped ARK OFFICIAL, now i'm completly alone i'm LFF first of all please , i don't have microphone no one give me a chance ... plz help, i want to join a team on pvp !
Are you on one of the realms on Fjordur?
Question for Survivor Downloading
If i upload my survivor on my server
then delete the server and set it to the next map (from island to extinction)
can i still download my survivor?
I fixed it thank you
I was near a cave
Both are passive tame. You have to kill off the mantas surrounding the basilo, and then passively feed it by swimming up to it. The tuso, you need a high health and oxygen dino (or a dino with no oxygen stat) and let the tuso grab it, and then feed the tuso black pearls. Dododex has timers as well as foods, and the wiki likely has preferred taming methods.
im playing a non dedicated session on abberation rn and at some weird spots my buddy just gets teleported back to me, what is that about? the tether distance is set really high and weve been further away from each other already
does light damage reaper kings?
damn
raised kings, not wild
It's just nondedi.
and how do i get the aw prime meat to it?
No, it only removes their resistance
it will just spoil
Put it in your 0 slot.
still does not make sense that they teleport back to me at random places
Typically you'd want kibble for basilos
i cant make a kibble
That's because nondedi is a buggy mess.
Non dedi teleports at loading points which are most common in caves
Unfortunately ab is full of tp points across the entire map, making it basically unplayable
Perry much better at words 
so there is no possible fix to it and abberation sucks for nondedi?
that is so incredibly stupid
What ini file has the setting for locking/unlocking flyer movement speed?
Extinction is no better either. Honestly The Island is the only map I could ever put up with it on. Do yourself a favor and rent a dedi. It’s a life changer if you have friends that play.
Yea but I only have one that plays
why do i need to pay money to play with one friend lmao
It should just be a check box in settings.
Yeah, I know that, but I'm looking to unlock it on my mp server.
I’ve heard you can host dedis through Ark server manager for free.
bAllowFlyerSpeedLeveling=True in Game.ini
Thank you.
ill try looking into it
You don’t
Try self hosting
anyone pls?
Is there a way to permanently enable creative on a particular map, or do I just have to switch to breative every time I go in?
do maewings get a speed boost at low health? I was using it underwater, a cluster of electrophoruses came and shocked me down to frigging 4 hp (absolute heart attack moment) but afterwards it seems like I was way faster?
also just holy crap how many damn electric eels spawn in fjordur
oh damn the free spoiled meat and polymer is awesome in the fjordur swamp biome
I assume chainsaw is most efficient?
boy am I glad I increased organic poly stack sizes
i forgot, how do you tame a Tek Stryder? all i remember is that you use mutagel.
initiate it by "feeding" it mutagel, then you need to hack it by doing a minigame a few times
What is a good mount to start going into the ocean with for the first time each playtrough? so far I went with baryonix or sarco but I wonder if there are other good options
Afaik yes
Fyi there's also a great (better imo) organic polymer source near a teleport point that I could point you to
Yeah, I understand
Is there a console command to make preditors either leave you allone or be passive in creative mode?
Well in any case it's in a large cave that has a western entrance in SE Vardiland, near a beach. The organic polymer plants in there respawn quickly @sudden night
The command is leavemealone
are fjordur oceans glitched? I see a ton of normally super-deep water creatures right on the shoreline which glitches their AI allowing me to easily tame them from land with a crossbow
...
I just killed an alpha meg and it dropped literally nothing
it didn't even leave a cache or put anything in my inventory
nor did I get any exp
cache might have gone to the floor of the ocean
hello
the area is 10 feet deep lmao

welcome to ark
did the cache drop to the bottom? Definitely possible
no
rip
probs just a bug
does it matter for the stats if you imprint several times for lower percentages or 1 time for 100%? Like my friend guessed maybe the stats are lower if you only imprint one time for 100% is that true?
100% = 100% amount of times to reach that isn’t important
oh really? i thought maybe its realistic that it might have more health or whatsoever if you imprint it several times
as long as it gets to 100% it’s the same, doesn’t matter how many imprints are used to get to that point
ok thank you very much :)
np
How rare are high level deino eggs? I've raided so darn many nests and only found 2 high level eggs
same as other creatures unlike wyverns their max is identical to normal dinos as well.
why my shoulder cannon doesnt shoot its like off i already put element on it
Is there any way to get pillars onto corners of triangle ceilings?
Not that I know of
Ok. What about centering a square foundation or ceiling between two triangles? I'll post a pic of what I'm talking about on #building-screenshots
@pine token
Is the black dot marking the points of two adjacent triangles? (I don't recognize the building pieces, sorry)
Yes sorry. I want to know if it's possible to slide the square foundation/ceiling over so that the adjacent edge is centered on the dot. Does that make sense?
I think I'm sort of following. Only trick I know of would be to get a square into a different overlapping grid. But even then it would be slightly out of alignment with other squares. Sometimes in that kind of situation I eyeball it and place a square in an unsnapped position and then run more squares down to the desired location. Usually requires trial and error.
Walls dont like to snap to pillars, do they?
any way to rotate irrigation pipes? one of my pipelines will only allow me to place a intersection to the front or back but I want my pipes to go to the right or left
I shared a pic in #building-screenshots but for some reason it instantly got deleted >_>
Right
If I'm understanding the goal, you'll want to place an unsnapped straight pipe further along in the intended direction and then connect it back to the other pipes using a flexible pipe.
I managed to post the pic in #building-screenshots again
I'm guessing one of those intersection pieces is pointing in an undesired direction?
yes
I want the left one to point to the left, and the right one to the right
but the right one can only go to the front or back for some reason
There no rotation feature like you were hoping. So you might want to do something similar to what I described.
issue is how am I gonna get the flexible pipe down, I cant just place an irrigation piece in the right spot midair and then connect the flexible pipe to it that way
Not in the air, no, but you could place one on the ground
I guess I gotta stick a vertical in the ground so I can slowly get the right heights
then place an intersection in hopefully the right spot and then attach flexible pipes to it
Yeah, that sounds about right
Who knows where oil is commonly found on crystal isles?
Check the resource map
quick question, is there no king titan on fjordur? but there is an ice and forest titan?
There aren’t any titans on fjordur
idk how to surivie in pvp. any help is appreciated!
does melee dmg increase dmg done to players with chainsaw
does melee dmg increase chainsaw dmg
yes
Is there a setting where I can turn off tame dinos needing food? I turned off Dino Character Food Drain but that affected wild dinos and I was unable to tame them since they wouldn't eat
There should be a similar slider if not it will be an ini
It’ll be called tamed Dino food drain or something like that
I don't think there is a slider for that. I've scoured the settings and haven't seen it
It’ll either be in your ini files or you can add it to them.
It’s definitely a setting you can adjust. I keep mine halved in my cluster.
Maybe it's TamedDinoCharacterFoodDrainMultiplier
A multiplier on how fast tame dinos consume food.
@plain mesa
(from the wiki)
That must be in the ini file, because it's not in the setttings
Right, many of the settings aren't in the ini until you put them there
Unless I'm misunderstanding you
No I think you've got it. I don't want to have to feed my tamed dinos, while still needing to feed wild ones to tame them
Unfortunately you may need to google it or something to get more info. Not seeing much detail on this discord or in the wiki.
Thanks for the help!
Does "maximum difficulty" set all dino levels to max or does it just cap it there? I put my normal difficulty slider to max but my wild dinos are still only lv 8 to 20. I did use "destroywilddinos", so those arent leftovers
maximum difficulty makes MAX dino level 120 (150 on console), it doesn't make them all level 150
it's bugged on PC and only makes max level 120 rather than 150
check pins on this channel to see how to make it 150
The same as transferring normally, walk it over to a terminal and upload it.
Cryopods are not a necessity for transferring.
I have a question about breeding, im stacking dmg Mutations on male gigas on the male side , now i got a female baby with a double dmg Mutation and i dont want to throw it away, how do i get the Mutations from the New female back on a male giga on the male side ?
breed it with an unmutated male and get the mutated damage onto a male baby
And after that i keep breeding with this new male ?
yep
Cool thx
You can go to the term on the sryder and hold r1 or r2 (I can't remember which one) over the ark data text and you can upload it w itself!
oh man its so frustrating how expensive greenhouses are
Everytime I flush a toilet it says I get 2 fertilizer, but I only ever get a single one per flush, does anyone else have this issue?
You only get one, the 2 is a visual bug
also is there any way to have laser sight/flashlight attachment on by default when I switch to my weapon with it attached, it is quite annoying having to switch it on each time
Whats the best singleplayer dino to use for alpha moeder? and all of the alpha ocean missions?
what's the deal with fjordur oceans being comically overcrowded
absolute utter death zones my god
becoming an issue because I need oil >_>
that's just fnord door at work
How many Mosasaurus do I need for alpha moeder? Some of mine have 100k-50k health cause of my settings
those will melt it as long as you have saddles
alpha moeder is easy
maybe 20? my tuso army was overkill, and they wore prim saddles with worse stats than that
in fact, you might be able to solo her with that
Ok thanks
looks like on our server metal is refusing to respawn even after 5-6 days within the game. Something is bugged? we tried changing all the resource-related settings but nothing seems to help. I'm talking about metal which is pretty far from our base/structures
Anyone know a mod to locate friends using the map?
no but I am pretty sure you can attach transponder nodes to eachother and track eachother that way
Oh..., I had seen the series of a Youtuber, that when he opened the map, he could track his friends, but I can't find any information about that mod.
Hello all.
Looking for advice. My friend and I play Ark on a private server/cluster - 2 person tribe. Settings are like official with the exception of a few items - primarily to do with breeding (reduced mating c/d, increased maturity rate). No bump to damage, health, or any other stats.
We've been playing for about 5 years now working our way through the content on each expansion. Our private rule is we can't "progress" to the next expansion/server until we at least defeat the Gamma Boss on any expansion. When we move to a new expansion we don't bring any equipment, dinos, etc. We keep our levels/engrams but otherwise start from scratch.
We have to defeat Gamma Boss which then "allows" us to access our "master base" where all of our quality gear/dinos are store. We are using Rag for this purpose.
We are currenlty on Genesis 1. We've come to a realization that many Alpha Missions are outside our ability but we are at an impasse...we can't get past Corrupted Master Controller on Gamma.
We've even "broken" our rule and retrieved our top Dinos - Primarily Tek Rex, Tek Stego, Daedon and Yuty. Rex have 34K health and 750-800% dmg, Stegos are 25-30k Health and 500% dmg. All have very good saddles - 150 to 280 armor.
We have quality armor, Flak with 4000 total armor and each piece has 900-1200 durability.
All of our dinos and gear have bene acquired "officially" via drops, normal taming and breeding. Rex are 58 base health, 56 base dmg - 28th generation. Stegos are similar 52 health, 52 dmg.
We can get through the first 3 phases of the fight no problem using 11 Rex, 6 Stego, 1 Yuty, 2 Daedon or 16 Rex, 2 Daedon, 1 Yuty, 1 Dinopithecus but once we get to the 4th stage we are just purely overwhelmed.
We are beyond frustrated and most of the videos we've found online are using full tribes, highly boosted stats or some other "trick" to win.
Would love any help anyone has. This has been our most frustrating experience and I almost rage quite the game yesterday
Hey I was wondering you can transfer off Abberation via the underground supply creates right? For some reason I’m my singleplayer world it’s not giving me the option to, unless I’m missing something obvious?
To the guy above me sorry mate I’ve got no clue I’ve ever only beat Master Controller on Alpha with a butt load of friends and exquisite gear on a boasted unofficial pvp sever and I died in the attempt so I’ve got no clue.
@thick basin - I don't think you can. It's been awhile but from what I remember you can only tranfer via Tek Transmitter.
Dam that’s annoying thanks for the info

OK
any ideas? installing valg didnt help, verifing steam data doesent help
redownloading whole ark dosent help
reinstalling win10 dosent help
@magic lodge - I'm taking a stab here but have you tried/check video card driver? I have and RTX3080ti and I'm not 100% sure if it is the same error but I remember going through all sorts of "fixes" for a Shootergame crash. Updating my Nvidia driver fixed the problem.
sadly yes, tried already older, very old, newer, newest driver versions, with/without geforce experience. doesent change the error.
Any hardware changes/add/remove?
nope
was playing in the morning, closed the game, came back later, error. its now like 2 weeks i couldnt play. have tried a ton of things, but still hoping for the final hint.
Try install rag
so I know you can tame coels and sabertooth with fish basket, but what is the point of a tamed fish?
do they do anything at all?
you can feed them to shadowmanes
I know you can feed the basket to shadowmanes ofc
you can tame Shadowmanes with them
but not really unless you have mods
also am I the weird one for almost always wearing ghilie armor instead of flak or what
Which gen 1 mission gives yuty saddles
You can only do that on servers, on sp youll need to go to obelisks, rockwell terminal or a transmitter
Is there a way to access your shoulder pet's inventory while it's on your shoulder (on PC)? Google says to press 'R', but it does nothing for me.
Only available for the sinomacrops
Lol. So they made it possible for a single shoulder pet, but went out of their way not to implement it for all? Sounds like Ark... 😕
The sino was a custom added creature, that was one of it's features as the shoulder pet.
Ok but I just went back to scorchated earth with my character and now I can’t upload my character from supply drops there either??? I was able to before and I just checked my settings and nothings changed so I don’t know what’s happening.
Can you add mods?
KBD mod allows it on all shoulder pets
yes
Afaik youve never been able to do that on sp, you’re either remembering wrong or something got messed up
Mmm this is weird maybe I’m remembering wrong I guess it’s not a huge issue with me so I’ll just leave it alone
It seems like too large a mod for me. I'll just access the inventory the old way. Thanks for the suggestion though.
You can disable pretty much everything
I don't want to spend the time figuring out how to do that
It's not that important
like any ini. Just copy paste the lines and 'false' after them
very simple, albeit would take a while since there's lot
:O fjordur has rocks with clay in it
damn so many cool little things the wiki doesn't mention in the fjordur page
i mean it's not particularly unique to any other resource node
oh crap, sleeping bags dont work if I place one in a realm?
also I just discovered that shadowmanes apparently have an attack that removes you from your saddle
you can guess how the rest of my first encounter went
Is there a way to get a metal cliff platform on gen 1? I have a sick base idea but can’t get it through engram
Does monthly clean up mean a monthly wipe or like a monthly clean up of abandoned and random builds?
you should be able to learn it on gen1. make sure you aren't filtering the engrams
if it doesn't allow you transfer to ab, gen2, lost island or fjordur :P
didnt help, still same error
Any mods?
https://github.com/coldino/Larkator/wiki/Installation you might be better off using this program to see what dinos are around you though
Can I pick up a dedi of element with a mek and transfer ?
i would rather not transfer cause it lags my pc can I get them from missions or lootcrates?
yes, did the same reinstall/delete/redownload thing with them too.
you should be able to learn the engram on gen1 and craft it. no idea about missions and loot crates but I kinda doubt it :P gen1 isn't as OP as gen2
It could be a mod referencing something
the thing is, some people can join the server, others (like me) cant, even when others are in the same location then my base (char)
added.
because it depends what content you don't have downloaded
and they do
fjordur has rocks with clay on it?
after I spent time farming gachas for it
so i should try a full dlc/free dlc download
im hesitant to suggest 'install all dlc' but short of searching for what exactly the culprit is thats the best option
Yeah pretty much
You see that error with the ice golems most often
in asgard, yeah
how do you see its the ice golems?
I am big sad. I spent hours waiting for the gachas 
Person goes near ice golem, crash. remove ice golem, no crash. save viewers are the safest way to find stuff, just tedious
remind me to omit random resources for ARK 2, just for you
okay 
strange
will give it a try
nope, is there a way to make all map locked engrams available?
Not really, because of course the game isnt going to like trying to show you something that doesnt exist
they spawn in the funky purple tree biome btw
not on console singleplayer. need ini to enable auto engrams.
not without mods or auto engrams.
im on xbox pc version does that work
so in asgard
map has the clay added: https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Resource_Map/Fjordur#Asgard-0
any tips for fighting shadowmanes, I just fought my first ever on my mount, got stunlocked and flung of my mount and now I gotta think of a way to get my loot back
damn how did you get all the locations so quick
yes, check the pins on how to get to ini :P then put bAutoUnlockAllEngrams=true in game.ini https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Server_configuration#:~:text=bAutoUnlockAllEngrams
we extract them from the game files 🙃
can also use EngramEntryAutoUnlocks=(EngramClassName="<index>",LevelToAutoUnlock=<value>)
https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Server_configuration#:~:text=in patch 273.62-,EngramEntryAutoUnlocks,-%3D(
EngramClassName%3D"<
but each one needs to be put in manually
anyone? 😦
are you on a non-dedi?
yes
there is a bug on singleplayer/non-dedi that can remove resource nodes.
I see, in the cave where there were only metal+stone after cleraing its always only stone
can we fix this?
what platform are you on?
pc
if you run your save as a dedicated then it should allow the nodes to respawn.
the bug is if nodes are gone when the non-dedi/singleplayer is closed they can be removed.
preventing hibernation can limit it happening as well as faster respawn times.
hmmm, we'll try
you need to move the save into the dedi's save folder. I would start the dedi so it makes the folder for you then just replace the save (keep a backup)
Do I have to enable mating/wandering on Carbonemys for them to lay eggs, or are they just passively doing so without any further assistance like Dodos?
they effectively need to be mateboosted, oviraptor helps too
So as long as they have the heart symbol over their heads, they will lay eggs passively? The thing with the oviraptor is new to me - will try to get one. Thanks
Yep
Is there a way to put ocean platforms on lava?
Did you upload it from a single player?
is there any way to use the snow owl healing without riding it? I am inside one of the realms rn and would like to heal something
dont think so
huh I thought wyverns only spawned inside the cave in asgard
but I found some on surface level
YOOO found my first ever gachas
is there any reason to tame higher level gachas over lower levels? the loot crystals stay the same don't they?
If I transfer to a server, and a rollback happens before the server save, and I go to join and my survivor is gone, but ark data downloads are disabled currently do I have to wait until they're enabled again and my character will be back? I've checked every map I've been on and there's no sign of him anywhere.
What do I need to google to figure out how to change the default hotkeys for taming groups?
Just go to your keybinds
Not there. Ive read that theres supposed to be a .ini file where I can change the NumPad keys to something else
But cant find it
Managed to find it myself. Thanks though
Ty mate, finally i can join again, it still makes no sens to me, but at least its working. Downloaded additional Val/CI/LI
I just found and killed my first ever crab creature thingy
they are awesome
but I used a chainsaw on it, and I got mf 1100 organic polymer jesus
I am glad I increased the polymer stack size every day I play man
I have no idea how to use discord, how do I find an ark server for ps4
click one either one of the options
Select a platform role in #role-assignment then you can access those channels
like you dont know where to find that in ark or on discord
what do you guys think of spinos? I think they looks so cool but I never really have a reason to use them, I usually just use rexes instead of spinos if I have a choice, are there any scenarios where picking spino would be great? because they are so large I cant use them for caving or anything
I figured it out thank you
Spinos are just good for getting xp when you kill them I believe
see here. spinos are cool. but rexes are better cuz more health. the thing i dont understand is how come baryonyx swim like a torpedo in water and then you have turtles which are faster than the spino.
spinos need a buff in ark 2
big buff
cuz there's always something better than them
like everytime I see a spino I really want to tame one but then I immediately remember I will never use them
because they are so comparable to rexes but rexes are just downright better as far as ive seen
and rexes are way more common and easier to tame ;l
so spinos are much better travel mounts than rexes. rexes are so fucking annoying to turn. spinos are faster and have much much better mobility
also on bi-pedal mode with water buff they output more dps than rex
cuz they slow af. you can outrun them
i tamed my first rex by simple running and shooting
What do you guys usually do with spare creatures? because in each playtrough lets take for example creature X, I find one at low level in the beginning of a playtrough and tame it, then I see a higher level one and tame that for example, then I go for a breeding pair if needed and along the way maybe I find a high level one with a bit better stats than the one(s) I had before, so what do I do now with the lower level/weaker spare creatures that I might have a bunch of at some point?
Except spinos are faster, more mobile, do as much if not more damage, and just look cooler (last one subjective but still)
i live near the ocean so i just cryopod them hop on my itchyosaur and uncryopod them on passive onto a group of jellyfish
true. rexes kinda look deformed ngl
Either save them up and throw them at a weak boss for fun or just kill them
I mean throwing them at a boss is a bit of a waste of artifacts
Artifacts are really easy to get tho, at least for the easy bosses
And also ci exists
broodmother has ez artifacts
ci?
whos playing ark poc and needs a group?
Crystal isles
never played on that map rip
Artifacts are literally free, theres like two artifacts that are actually in caves
wack
that's why you'll see a bunch of ci haters (me)
could anyone help with my post in #building-screenshots
I'm terrible at irrigation, sorry
so i played some on island did some caves and the center and valguro now i want a change what map should i go to now?
so im trying to get honey in fjordur, I do not want to enter the cave yet for multiple reasons, but I cant find any honey rocks and regular bee hives seem to be insanely rare?
i'm playing solo on a mod map but aparently nothing is spawning i dont know if i have to do something
which map
planterra
and me!!
also, how long have you waited
Did someone mention CI hate?!?
yes
good, good
Aberration
ok
around 10 minutes
can't find anything on that mod
oh
check again
I've found that moving far away from an area will help speed up respawns in solo. One trick I've used (which might be overkill) is to quickly fly far away, set infinite stats, and go afk for a bit.
thanks i'll try that
alright its panterra not planterra
hm, i guess just wait and move around yeah
also it's been like that for over a year
yeah i've been off of ark for a long time
thanks man im stuck now lol i have died 10 times
Lmao yep, that's ab!
i cant even see or get to oblix to get my tames and items should have leveled meele and speed
oh aberration transfers are limited
also, the only obelisks are either guarded by radiation or the sun/18 billion reapers
You can enable GCM to head down to the terminal and tp out if you want to
Just relog to get rid of the engrams
does nondedi let you use the drops?
(just for future reference)
Not sure, I lean toward no.. at least on most maps. ive seen portals in rag on nondedi
does cactus broth stack with ghilie armor
also what food/potions should I make in the industrial cooker
because so far I only use it for dyes and medbrews and probably cactus broth in the future
and maybe focal chili/fria curry
am I the only one that never uses stimbrews?
I used a teleport function to asgard (fjordur) my friend died middle teleport (he teleported dead). No corpse can be found. Any idea if we can recover this items? He literally died out of nowhere
I've never heard of that one. I wonder if your friend was ambushed while loading into the destination (which can happen). If that's what happened, their item cache should be near wherever they teleported in.
What is the best VPN to use
hey could i get some help?
every damn rathole i've checked on this cluster is taken, my tribemate doesn't have any of the paid dlcs or half the free dlcs, so i'm stuck looking for a rathole big enough for a full 6 man on either CI or LI
anyone have good suggestions?
alright why wont my snow owl follow me properly? I got the follow range on low and if I put it on follow it always stops midair quite a bit out of grab range
ive died so many damn times because my snow owl stops in a stupid spot midair and I cant grab the damn thing to ride
what I meant is that the snow owl just always hovers right above my player's head just barely out of reach for me to get onto it's saddle
Then use go to whistle
same issue often
I only have this with snow owls
or at least, this one snow owl
I just said, same thing happens very often then
welp its dead now so cant lol
it just refused to listen to any command mid battle even when I put it on passive
dont use those
well not in this playtrough yet
because this is an english server mate
Can anyone invite me to a party on PS4 and invite me to their server and take me under their wing please
trying to tame an andrew, issue is, those bastards run so damn far away that it is impossible to clear a safe area for them to not get attacked in
what land dino should i use for ab cave?
val?
Bro i accidentally set my pterandon to agressive and my whole tame army died to like 3 stegos
My base destroyed
my god is andrew taming painful
I was taming an astrocetus and after the tame it warped away? How do I find it because it did that after tame
am I weird for more often wearing ghilie than flak?
Is radiation dps or percentage based
any good dino overhaul x servers ???
is there any reason to tame a higher level gacha over a lower level one? does level have an effect on crystals or anything?
use taming tracker lol
it should be still on there if its benn less than 10 ish mins
Did soap get removed i cant make it in the pot
does anyone know if theres a bug with S+ dedicated storage? cant store any metal in it but regular dedicated storage works with metal
if you're trying to add to a storage that already has some in it- do you use a stacking mod
are you trying to store scrap metal ingots with normal metal ingots?
nope
thenits probably just S+ being S+
the Primitive Plus of mods
Use SS instead, basically the same
yet i ask again what should i use for ab caves on val land dinos?
it's based on an outdated version of S+ lol
P+ is regularly broken. S+ is a staple that practically every other structure mod is built on. definitely not the most polished mod.. but to compare it to prim+ is utterly absurd.
it's a fork
and it's updated separately therefore
just like the new wiki is technically a fork of the old wiki.
does the lack of changes from old wiki since april make it outdated? no
fork is the correct term yeah
it's a different thing.
most of the S+ parts are still 'older version of S+ from a year ago' though.
Look at something like N+, and you're looking at 'S+ but tweaked'.
yeah and SS doesn't have to copy S+
those forks were really just born cause S+ was abandoned
N+ i think started out as personal tweaks? super was though yeah
it doesn't have to copy it, it's its own mod, but that doesn't change this
They aren't practically the same any more, a large chunk of what is S+ in Super is a far, far older version of S+. and what's unique is, well, unique. the comparison is false either way
Can yall point me in the direction of the currrent Ark PvPr youtuber is please.
Clamen is rlly good
Thanks. Anyone else
sinzahh
he good
btw, can someone help me with a problem i have with INI files cause i messed with it before and now idk how to fix it, my game looks like absolute buns!!!
I have no clue about ini for game graphics. Sorry. But thanks for your help
If im bringing 19 rexes into a bossfight, how do i fit them all on the teleporter? Last time I fought a boss i only got 17 in because its so hard to get them all on the teleporter pad
are you on a non-dedi?
what dat lol
i had my friend help me with it and idk what he did tbh
i just clicked what he told me
would assume not then
just gotta keep messing with your settings until you get to a nice balance of performance and quality.
thats the problem because when i try to change it, it does not make any diffrence. so i think it has something to do with some other folder but tbh idk which ones are for graphics
its weird
if you messed with files I can't help as I've never done that 🤷 best plan would be to reset all of them tho
how do dat, i tried to find how to do that but could not find an answer
depends on the platform. which platform are you on?
steam pc
you can try to verify. but other than that just delete all of the files in the WindowsNoEditor folder (guide to ini in the pins) should reset all settings 
bet, ty very much
also if i were jus to restore to default in properties that would also work right?
omfg i think it worked!!! ty so much big dog. been dealing with this problem forever jus clicking around. now i feel stupid lol
could someone dm and explain what lines are
If im bringing 19 rexes into a bossfight, how do i fit them all on the teleporter? Last time I fought a boss i only got 17 in because its so hard to get them all on the teleporter pad
Just make sure they're all inside of the outer ring.
Can you not make a tek replicator at a fabricator even though in-game it says you can?
Pretty sure it says required fabricator
oh boy was it a kinda bad idea to build my entire plant farm around a water well
they produce water slower than expected
now I gotta find a second watersource, issue is, no rivers are anywhere near
anyways now I am building an irrigation pipe down a cliff to get to a river kinda far away
issue is I placed one pipe wrong, its high in the air and I cant attach ramps or anything to pipes to climb up
how do I remove this pipe?
god I hate building with irrigation pipes so much
they get stuck underground so often and their placement is wack
it feels so wrong to use ghost so often
What are all the mounts people often use to steal wyvern eggs?
I'm on singleplayer ps4. Not sure if I got the correct sliders. The very first difficulty does the offset? I cannot edit an ini file
oh it's not bugged on console, so no worries, just set difficulty to 1 and check the max difficulty checkbox
What happens if I dont check it? Will the levels be lower? What does max diff do exactly? Will it force the game to spawn high level mons?
^ the original answer
So I entered the shimmering halls in fjordur, there is this massive pit with many fish in it in one of the rooms, issue is, I cannot exit the pit as far as I see
So it doesnt spawn high level dinos by force, but it does something with the levels. Whats the level cap without checking the box? Unlimited?
am I missing something or am I stuck here?
I'm not entirely sure, either 120 or 60
it's never unlimited
you can check the level cap by seeing the common factor of all the wild dino levels
if dino levels are 10, 20, 30, 40
then the level cap is common factor 10 x 30 = 300
if you find a 15, then level cap is 5 x 30 = 150
if all the levels are multiples of 4, level cap is 4x30=120
does anyone know the water pit in the shimmering halls (cave?) in fjordur, I am stuck in it and I don't see a way out
alright for real how am I supposed to survive in the fjordur ocean
the mob spawn rates are fucking insanity, squads of 20 mantas and megalodons are goddamn everywhere
I just tamed a dunky, it didnt stand a damn chance
anyone have issue with Alpha Bulbdog Fetch gen2 mission causing crash ?
What side do gates open? Green or blue side? Also I remember in rust the inner side (in Ark green?) being more susceptible to dmg - is it the same here?
Cant find the right keywords to google for. Always finds me stuff about blue/green Obelisks or what good places there are for buliding a base
"Press E to flip the structure", "It opens towards you", "Make sure to place it right", "Behemoth gates open both ways"...
All gates and doors open both ways
any trick to getting dino growth speed and cuddle intervals just right so you get 100% imprint at once?
got dino growth on 6x now but I am by trial and error just adjusting the slider by a bit everytime I raise an animal
um, i cant craft unstable elem and shards in the city terminal, does anyone know why? i am lvl 137 ,have all the engrams and tried mindwipe tonic
its craft in ur inventory
terminal craft ele into dust
dust to ele in inv only
Hmm, do Tek Stryders have a timer before they can be moved/uploaded again to another mission terminal? (hope that makes sense haha) - I tamed 2, used a mission term' to get them closer to my base, now, about 3/4 hours later, they arent uploading an terminal.
NVM 24 hour cool down.
what do you guys think of rexes? I've always used them to travel around safely until I recently tamed a thylacoleo, now I just do not see any uses for rexes outside bossfights, is it just me that is like this now or what?
Does anyone know.
Is king titan plat Ext Against TOS and bannable if you build on it?
and shards are for nothing??
They are mainly for Tek bow and turret
Rexes typically just used for boss not travel
now I am using honey for kibble and stuff I am so damn happy I increased the honey stacksize
sometimes I really wonder why the default for stuff like this is just 1
Cuz of spoil timer
yeah but they really couldve balanced it differently then
especially considering the inventory only has 300 slots
and alphas often drop 300+ prime meat easily
or honey rocks in fjordur easily drop 200+ honey
also making storing said honey absolute agony
just been kicked from my solo small tribes tribe idk how or why what can i do ?
if you have to lure something with the honey, make sure you split the stack to one. putting it in your hotbar and pressing the key drops the whole stack
Minimum rex stats + saddles for gamma controller?
Nothing
Well I guess you could ask them why they kicked you
noone kicked me
im solo
contact #customer-support. if you're lucky, they'll put you back in before your stuff dies
expected that to happen tbh
^^
alright
attempt #3 at fjordur ocean going good so far
using a sarco this time.
the spawnrates in fjordur's oceans are just comically high
downright unfair levels of spawnrates of megalodons etc
probably because there is almost none of no deep ocean at all and thus everything spawns in the same 10 feet of deep water
truee
only reason im surviving the fjordur ocean this time is because the sarco is fast enough to flee
I mean I am surviving it right now but there is no way in hell I can tame anything when there are constantly quite literally 50 megs chasing after me
nor can I collect much if any resources
and then add 3 alpha megs chasing me at all times too
just what the hell am I supposed to do
you talking about the ocean in general in ark or are you making a joke of the fjordur biome name
