[polar sandal]

and it says "cannot feed"?

not sure about that one

[tall aspen]

im taming another shadowmane a bit far from it and its working

just not the 145 lmao

[analog wren]

no idea what to do

[polar sandal]

@analog wren

[analog wren]

so i'm not the first. but did they have the same problem today or sometime before

[polar sandal]

hmmm weird. only thing offhand I can think of is sometimes sanguine elixir can effect other animals in the area without the people realizing. but not 100% sure that's it. I suppose as long as some are tamable ... fk it

[polar sandal]

seen the problem about 4 times since the last patch. haven't been able to nail down a real fix yet but I've been sending people to that conversation - and if I stop hearing back from people I just assumed it either worked or they gave up so could go either way lol

[analog wren]

i'll try to go through it.... very confusing tho

i just don't see what they said as to what they did to fix it

[tall aspen]

so you think I can maybe get it out of the trap and redo it?

[charred vale]

try harpoon net it, thats ussually reset taming for me

[polar sandal]

it's difficult because the error is literally

unknown error, in a unknown module , doing an unknown thing.

people said verifying files didn't work, so then we said try a fresh install and that's usually about where I lose em

imo seems to be a mod doing something funky. but other who have more knowledge than I do said that probably isn't the case.

[analog wren]

hmmm kinda figured i may have to do a reinstall. 😦

sad

[ornate marsh]

so im encountering tons of lag that i was not before i had to reinstall ark and was wondering about a couple settings that maybe could be causing it. "high quality materials" "sub surface scattering" "high quality vfx" are any of these things not needed at all that could cause lag or?

[polar sandal]

I think basically all launch parameters are optional.

[empty cedar]

I've been struggling for a few days with a continual Battleye loop issue when launching ARK. I launch the game, around 7 seconds later it closes and a prompt comes up to install Battleye. I do so but the same issue occurs over and over again.

I've tried everything suggested on Google.

Anyone have any idea/experienced something similar?

[frozen kraken]

why cant my friend join me in my hosted server? we tried joining eachother and we get a lost connection to host/timeout error constantly

we've restarted our pcs, ark, and steam

[sonic zealot]

question:
will my character remain in the tribe from a server if i upload it and download it into a single player save, then upload it and download it in the server

[fossil trout]

for unofficial yes

[sonic zealot]

okay thanks

[nimble obsidian]

My ark continues crashing and or freezing and when I validate my files it will always say 2 files were corrupted then it fixes itself then it happens again often

[naive dust]

Both of you exit Ark and run it again withou battle eye and try that

[naive dust]

Everyone’s Ark says 2 files after validation that’s normal and not the cause of your issue

[polar sandal]

is it the two server list files ?

they change everytime you login so the client sees it as corrupted but it's good.

like tribe said the cause of your crash is... something else. including a crash report next time would be helpful

[fleet thorn]

how do i stop my curser from goin onto my 2nd monitor i never had this issue before and my games in full screen

[rare berry]

If mantas are aggressive, then how come they only attack me some of the time?

[fleet thorn]

sometimes they dont feel like it

[polar sandal]

lol that's not an ark issue. you need to go to your dual desktop config and lock your mouse to a monitor if that's what your wanting

[fleet thorn]

in windows or like geforce

[polar sandal]

I really wouldn't know what application you use for it. whichever one you set it up through.

Right click or tap and hold the tray icon for Dual Monitor Tools and select Options. Under the Cursor heading in the left-hand menu, select General. Next to Lock cursor onto screen select Change, then tick the Enable box, input your chosen command, and press OK.

[rare berry]

Wow. That's stupid.

[sudden night]

alright would 60+ level ~ 250 wyverns, 10x 300 rexes and 20x 200 thylacoleos be enough to fight a dodowyvern?

I decided to go nutty

[fleet thorn]

i dont see the "lock" option

[naive dust]

You gotta get pretty close to a manta for them to attack, if you attack a manta every other one in the area will attack you as well

[polar sandal]

eh well, whatever you used to setup your dual monitor will probably also be where you configure how your mouse behaves on it. Google is a powerful tool.

[fleet thorn]

google said the same stuff you did, i downloaded dual monitor but i dont have the option to lock it it only lets me center it

[polar sandal]

not sure man

[fleet thorn]

i just had to install an older version so im good

and it still moves between the 2 ima kms

[vernal haven]

How do I make modded caves for Xbox ik it's not technically a mod everyone just calls it that

[polar sandal]

what do you mean by modded cave

[vernal haven]

Making it where other caves that aren't normally crouch caves are

[fossil trout]

[fleet thorn]

some servers have water veins placed to make some caves smaller or only have 1 entrance etc

[fossil trout]

[fleet thorn]

i can dm u an image of 1 if u want

[fossil trout]

i think my dms are closed and idk how to open them again lol

[plain stag]

That's okay, it was explained in #unofficial-setup-help earlier anyway.

[polar sandal]

you can make random generated maps, that's about the only way Xbox can use custom maps that aren't officially released, and we cant use third party modifications at all in the way steam can

[loud kiln]

Can someone please help explain these LDL servers in simpler terms, like will they open to the main server ever? or can you transfer to other LDL servers or can you only play 1 map?

[polar sandal]

no, they will stay closed to tranafering in indefinitely.

they won't open to the other servers - in

you can however leave anytime. just can't come back

as far as clustering between each other I'm really not sure !

[loud kiln]

Tysm!

[sudden night]

Damn, was hoping that 60+ level 250 wyverns would be enough to fight the dodowyvern, apparently not. I even brought thylas because I heard the bleed works on it, sadly it does not either.
Yes, I did know that the breath attack does not work on the dodowyvern before I fought it.

I guess I have no choice but gigas then huh?

I chose wyverns and thylas because I wanted to use dinos that only spawned on scorched but if this does not work that is a bummer

[plain stag]

Remember to keep conversations to #ark-survival-ascended. This channel is intended for help.

[polar sandal]

I think you might think your in #general or #ark-survival-ascended buddy

o lol yea

[elfin stream]

Can someone send me the code for the .ini to add Bloodstalkers to the redwoods on rag please

[sudden night]

that was the reason I used this channel

[elfin stream]

Rexs would work too but you'd just need more

[plain stag]

You can use beacon omni if you have a computer of some sort. https://usebeacon.app/

[elfin stream]

Xbox I'm afraid using nitrado

[plain stag]

Beacon is for ark. I just meant even a little laptop as it is a pc app. But you could probably search through NinjaKiller's pastebin here: https://pastebin.com/u/Ninjakiller

[hasty wolf]

Whats a good build for leeds killing, self sustainable motorboat base?

I'm at metal tier and my current build is a platform with ballistas

[fossil trout]

for leeds i would guess plant species x to slow them down but as for killing them i dunno

[sudden night]

I forgot to note I had ~ 10 rexes too

but they couldnt do anything to the slightest extend because even if the wyvern flew low, it was still out of rex's range

So are gigas the only real option for fighting the dodowyvern or are there others?
besides a lot of turrets

[fossil trout]

my buddy Devin could kill it

[sudden night]

damn

[glass nacelle]

I have some technical questions

I need help finding out what isn’t letting me run ark on my laptop, and once identified I need help finding out if I’m able to replace the piece so I can run ark

Also: if I buy a hard drive, can I download(or move ark) to this hard drive so it doesn’t eat up all my laptop disk space?

[glass nacelle]

I have enough ram (12gb) I’m pretty sure my problem lies in the video ram(graphics card) but idk if I can replace that on my laptop

[vale salmon]

is it possible to make a keypad keep activating on a set loop without any player being online

[primal glacier]

If i were to get a chibi in this event would i get it permanently or just for the event or even just for the world?

[tacit field]

I'm lost on how to fix this bug so right now my map bugged and won't let me see the full map but only a small part how can I fix that?

[bright mulch]

Any chibi you collect during this event will still be around once the event ends, only difference is if you lose it, then unless you collect it, it will be gone for good

Also if you want it on other worlds you will need to transfer it

[elfin stream]

When I type in the spawn location in the .ini command do I need to put dinospawnentries no matter what region it is

[heady lichen]

Idk if it’s a giltched but I transferred my ark survivor to another server and now it’s telling me to create a new one

[elfin stream]

Download survivor

[primal glacier]

so its not like skins where if I die I get them back, I just get the one and I gotta get it off the body?

[elfin stream]

Yes

[bright mulch]

yes

cause it an event item

[tacit field]

Anyone else having a bug with your map?

[bright mulch]

not a perment

[elfin stream]

When I type in the spawn location in the .ini command do I need to put dinospawnentries no matter what region it is

[tacit field]

How you zoom out on your map

[hasty wolf]

right click

[tacit field]

I'm on Ps4 so

[plain stag]

There is not a "zoom out" for the map. Only a zoom in.

[tacit field]

Well shoot my map zoomed in alot and idk how to fix it

[plain stag]

Try left trigger or putting your map away

[tacit field]

I tried both and even leaving and nothing so I'm lost

[vale salmon]

is it possible to make an elevator go up and down with no input from a player

[pine token]

I'm not aware of any map zoom feature.

[tacit field]

Have u got a bug where ur map zoomed in ?

[rare berry]

Where do I get citronal seeds?

[red olive]

Harvesting berry bushes gives a chance of getting them, usually best to use a bronto or kangaroo, but most decent gatherers can get them fast enough. Alternatively there is the village on fjordur that has then

[rare berry]

Does anyone here know any good locations with lots of pitcher plants in the swamp biome on the Center map?

[tacit field]

So ig no one has a idea

[flint forge]

how do i set the engram so i dont see engrams that i didnt learn

[plain stag]

On the engram page, there are some filters in the top right corner

[flint forge]

what?

[plain stag]

You can change which engrams you see on the engram page

[flint forge]

the engram page in game? or in the menu

[plain stag]

In game

[tacit field]

aanyone having a map bug on Fjordur

[astral obsidian]

Is there anyway to correct the location you spawn in? Spawned in randomly and stuck in some random base with offline damage.

Or an instakill...

[fossil trout]

if you hold square you can open the realm teleportation menu

on fjordur

[astral obsidian]

Ah... So any other map I'm screwed...

[pine token]

I would also let the admin know @astral obsidian
Building on spawn or teleport spots is usually not allowed

[astral obsidian]

Except gen1 but not there either

[fossil trout]

hmmm, well lemme think, i misread and combined your and the previous persons messages

what map are you on

[astral obsidian]

Where do I message an admin? At least to further pursue that....

[pine token]

Depends on the server

[fossil trout]

are you on official or unofficial

[astral obsidian]

Official

[fossil trout]

hm, #server-reports might be your best bet. idk really, i don’t play official

[tacit field]

how have any of y'all got a map zoomed in bug on fjordur

[pine token]

Have you tried relogging?

[tacit field]

ya like 3 times

[pine token]

I may have seen that, but relogging fixed it. We may not be thinking of the same thing though

[tacit field]

can i send pics in this chat ? or do i need to send it to your DMS to show u what im talking about ?

[pine token]

I don't do dms for help stuff, sorry

[tacit field]

oh ok well it on the map is zoomed in where it dont show the full thing so idk

and by relogging u mean like leaving and rejoining

[pine token]

Yeah

[tacit field]

im lost now because i tried it and nothing happing

have any other ideas how to fix it

[pine token]

I don't, sorry. I may not have encountered that issue.
Well, I suppose you could verify the game files. I know Steam has that, not sure about Epic.

[tacit field]

can u send pics in this chat or will it take them down ?

do you know anyone that may can help with this i tried online and looking it up and nothing and the website for the game has nothing so only thing i can do is send a pic of what it doing and see if they know what going on]

[fossil trout]

i haven’t a clue, i’ve never heard of that bug. test it in singleplayer and on other maps maybe?

[tacit field]

im on single player and it only happing on this map so im lost

can i send a pic of what it looks like to you and u can see ?

[tacit field]

Can u even ask Admins for help ?

[halcyon lion]

does the breeding cooldown go down in cryo?

[pine token]

If you mean here, just at be patient and ideally someone will eventually come along who understands which issue you're experiencing.

[charred vale]

Maybe you could write a ticket for technical support, they might be able to help with this unique issue

[ornate marsh]

ive heard if dinos are too high of a lvl it deletes some of their lvls. is this true? and is it only relevant in official and not things like SP/with overhauls?

[bright mulch]

Only on official

The cap is tamed level 450 for normal dinos and I believe X & R creatures are allowed to 500

[ornate marsh]

ah alrighty so anything else is fine then. thanks! wanted to make sure before trying an overhaul mod with much higher lvls lol

[unkempt pelican]

iver 300 tamed desmodus and no #85 jade anywhere....

[ember talon]

Hi Bobs and Bobettes... I was hoping to ask a few questions about PC servers.. and more particularly, my selection of hosting and when/if its a good time to get out of this hosting to switch. Let me know please?

Tag, reply, or dms are welcome 🙂

[dusty cargo]

Its been a little while since i tamed a ferox but tamed a few during the event. it seems now when it transforms the large ferox always gets the pre tame stats of the small ferox?

[sudden night]

Are gigas and turrets basically the only way to take out the dodowyvern or are there other viable methods?

[modern drift]

With the dodorex fighting it underwater is a good idea, but that isn't so viable with the dodowyvern.

[sudden night]

alright what the fuck I've been told over a dozen times that wyvern breath attacks dont work on the dodowyvern

but I just tested it again and it does work

I've been reloading my singleplayer savefile a bunch of times to test dodowyvern strategies

and I never used the breath attacks because everyone told me they dont work

[split steppe]

depends on settings of the singeplayer save file?

[bleak sparrow]

Yes

[sudden night]

I got singleplayer settings off so it should be the exact same as official

[halcyon lion]

I demolished a raft a while ago and it's still there but unusable, can I do something to get rid of it or is it just permanent clutter

[polar sandal]

maybe relog. shoulda go away if demolished

[halcyon lion]

this was a few weeks ago, I've relogged plenty

[polar sandal]

try hitting it with an axe or something several times. you using any mods?

like - it really should go away lol

[halcyon lion]

im on official, I smacked it with a shadowmane a bunch

[polar sandal]

if PvE then won't damage structures.

[halcyon lion]

so the mount won't and I have to use an axe? or is it just permanently there because no one owns it so no one can damage it

[polar sandal]

oh did you unclaim it ?

[halcyon lion]

when I demolished it I think I stopped owning it

[polar sandal]

although also - yeah if your on PvE dinos won't damage structures you own, or don't own. they just don't damage structures on PvE

[halcyon lion]

well if I see it again I'll try smacking it with an axe

[polar sandal]

eventually either way if it's unowned it'll decay some day. probably about 2 weeks if I remember right

[unkempt pelican]

they do if you are the one who has agrod them, also if there is an agressive dino they can agro through walls and if said wall is made from a material they can destroy then it will be destroyed such as greenhouse

[polar sandal]

yea, wild dinos will still destroy structures on PvE.

we were talking about tames however and those won't be able to.

[graceful pasture]

How do you reset andrew taming process? He stepped onto torch and taming reset to 0% but effectiveness is 86%

[polar sandal]

eh maybe by knocking it out, or might eventually reset or leave render range

[graceful pasture]

lost the tracker from taming tab, but now taming doesnt even starts

doesnt matter now, my dumb friend killed my 145 andrew, somehow he didnt realized a single andrew can spawn in enclosed area

[sudden night]

Did they change the level cap of zombie wyverns? I heard they spawned in at levels above 190 but I haven't seen any do that yet

[light nebula]

Hello @empty cedar , did you find a fix to your issue ?
Actually, i got the same problem, my Battleye shut down my game after i try to connect to a server and it ask me to (re)install it again ...
I try the solution to delete/uninstall->reinstall the whole Battleye files, but no success. It keep closing my game and ask for (re)install ...

[polar sandal]

Navigate to "Configuration" -> "Add-Ons" and activate "Disable BattlEye" by clicking on it. Save and restart.

[polar sandal]

rip

[mighty bane]

When is the carc coming out? Is there a release date for it yet?

[polar sandal]

no

[mighty bane]

O okeh

[lavish falcon]

do fjordhawks not work?

[polar sandal]

what is your expected result for what action

[lavish falcon]

that it brings my stuff to me when i die

it worked before

now it doesnt

[charred vale]

its gonna takes 20 sec

[polar sandal]

it was recently updated so after dying you have a 1 hour cooldown before you can do it again

[lavish falcon]

what??

fr or trolling?

[charred vale]

read the patchs notes

[polar sandal]

check patch notes for your platform. I can't link PC since I'm on Xbox

[lavish falcon]

oh shi

thanks

[lavish falcon]

where do i find patch notes?

that's all I can do but you can't click it cause of roles lol

eh .. near the top of this discord

I am gigachad bob

[elfin stream]

Can someone tell me why this code won't spawn Bloodstalkers on rag?

ConfigAddNPCSpawnEntriesContainer=(NPCSpawnEntriesContainerClassString="DinoSpawnEntriesredwoods_lostisland",NPCSpawnEntries=((AnEntryName="BogSpider",EntryWeight=0.5,NPCsToSpawnStrings=("BogSpider_Character_BP_C"))),NPCSpawnLimits=((NPCClassString="BogSpider_Character_BP_C",MaxPercentageOfDesiredNumToAllow=0.5)))

[stiff topaz]

no _c on the container classname

[elfin stream]

There is an _c in the one I have on my code I just couldn't copy and paste it properly

[stiff topaz]

you also don't want the redwoods to be 50% bloodstalkers so tone the weight and max % down a lot

Use 3x `

but also if this isn't actually the code you're using, hard to say what the issue is

another potential option assuming that the syntax is actually correct, is you already have an addition to the redwoods conainer on another line

but can't say if it's correct without seeing it.

[elfin stream]

The only difference is the _c and I don't have anything else in there and I realised when my snow biome was 90% managarmrs lol

[elfin stream]

Wdym 3x?

[stiff topaz]

to do this

so that you don't have underscores getting eaten

but i can't trust it's the only difference unless i see it. it's easy to miss a bracket or "

[elfin stream]

Trust me dude i had the code i used for my andrewsarchus to spawn in the desert in my notes so all i changed was the dunes to the redwoods and all the andrewsarchus tags to bogspider

[stiff topaz]

Ah it's the container, looks like they did actually fix rag. You need DinoSpawnEntriesRedwoods_C

they fixed some maps using LI's container

[elfin stream]

Ohhhhh okay i put lost island because it says that on the wiki thats annoying

[polar sandal]

I was under the impression you couldn't spawn in dinos that weren't natural to the map using regions. good to know

[stiff topaz]

don't use fandom, use https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Spawn_entries

[stiff topaz]

there's a few specific exceptions that require mods, and win10 has fewer options than steam aside from that

[ornate marsh]

so far in terms of ini things that i have seen you can change the max lvl, some spawns, stack size and such but is there any other major things that you can do?

[polar sandal]

fair. I just remember something about spawning in ghost astrocetus on lost island or something. like they were there - but they aren't

[stiff topaz]

like reaper queens that can't even be spawned with bp path. on steam, you need a mod to load them to make them spawnable via ini, but without a mod you can still command spawn them with bp path
though this may not be true as of Gen2, i think gen2 changed their loading- it's still a good example

[polar sandal]

essentially control the entire game, anything that has a... value

[stiff topaz]

astros are more like the phoenixes where they spawn, but aren't functional

they're invisible outside the lunar biome without a mod

[ornate marsh]

is there a way to remove/add items to supply crate loot? lol

[stiff topaz]

ye

[polar sandal]

ah so that's just a space whale "feature" unique to ... that situation ?

[stiff topaz]

ye

[stiff topaz]

enough to almost completely overhaul the game, it's very powerful https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Server_configuration

[ornate marsh]

how would i go about that? while i enjoy a water jar bp, compass bp, crop plot bps etc i dont like them in red drops and such

ah mk thanks!

[polar sandal]

hah yeah. some things I'd say are fairly "advanced" that's one of em

there's a free/premium application called beacon that can help a lot with the advanced things but naturally, the advanced things require the premium version

[stiff topaz]

fortunately drops are free in beacon, because that's the one INI even I won't touch with a 10 foot pole by hand

[ornate marsh]

wait is it that complicated?

[stiff topaz]

and i am not a fan of beacon.

[polar sandal]

ooo rly. figured not. very nice

[stiff topaz]

yeah, drops are fucking hideous

[polar sandal]

becaon is a good... learning tool. though most people use it as a end all so if they experience errors past that they are lost.

[ornate marsh]

omg at that point why not just grab a mod or smthn. imma go drown in some torch bps, water jar bps, spyglass bps, and the other random crap you have to learn but they still give bps of

[stiff topaz]

there is a simpler config to remove specific items from drops, but it's.. funky

[stiff topaz]

yeah it's the fact that people don't actually learn that irks me most about it. and then trying to actually help people with that..

'it's broken, time to guess at what this program is doing!'

[polar sandal]

rofl

[stiff topaz]

the fact is most configs are as simple as 'copy-paste one line and change a number' too, like.. it's worth learning how to do at least that yourself

i actually have a rather big 'why i dont like beacon' rant somewhere lol

[ornate marsh]

with SP the only issue with pvp is cryo sickness right? (making sure bc i plan to use DSv2 so it wont be an issue)

[stiff topaz]

here ya go, enjoy

[polar sandal]

what does

ForceAllowCaveFlyers

do !?!?!

🤦

yaka lol

[stiff topaz]

Well there's a few changes that might be good or bad depending on how you see them

• cryosickness
• osds take damage from tames
• corrupted can damage structures
• you can carry wild dinos (there is a setting for this but it may be bugged like the caveflyers)
• you can damage unclaimed dinos

[river wolf]

it makes it so xp is gathered precisely 2.54382% more effectively

though i may be wrongl

[stiff topaz]

don't forget the part where it makes the volcanos erupt and snipe your house on the other side of the map

[polar sandal]

this seems correct

I'ma stop before someone comes in mid conversation and their whole server gets ruined

[ornate marsh]

so the only issue being the osds and ill be on fjordur so that doesnt apply. awesome

also eclipse i have a comment about your rant.... it said 27/04/2022 is this another thing where america is weird and we do the month first instead of the day compared to how thats the day then the month or does alot of other places do it as well?

[stiff topaz]

im aware of only america that does it backwards

might be one or two other places like with imperial units, but i don't know of them

[ornate marsh]

ah mk. i saw it went "wait theres not 27 months in a year" then it clicked that america is weird lol

[river wolf]

wait theres not 27 months in a year?

[stiff topaz]

Yeah i don't understand why america uses that tbh, like at least with imperial units it's kinda.. just a different numbers. but why month first?? days are the smallest unit, the biggest unit is last, the day is what you most often need precision to..??

[river wolf]

america uses feet because everyone has feet but then not everyone has the same sized feet

[ornate marsh]

no clue. my thought process was that you need to know the month more than the day otherwise it could be that one day in 12 different scenarios but then it brings into question the year and at that point i just result to "america is weird and theres nothing anyone can do to change that... it is what it is"

so is the boolean or the integer ini settings more important?

[stiff topaz]

it depends completely on the setting itself tbh

[ornate marsh]

mk fair. didnt wanna have to scroll through them all

btw is this something i do before making a world or after? i see some of these things are also just settings when making a SP world so thought itd be after you make a world to get all the settings you can already just change when doing SP outta the way

[stiff topaz]

You can change them all at any time you want

[stiff topaz]

Generally game.ini is more 'fancy', they're the ones that arent just one value generally

[ornate marsh]

mk. also when cloning dinos it costs element right?

er well element shards

[stiff topaz]

yep

[ornate marsh]

how does mutagen affect creatures btw? never figured that out

[stiff topaz]

https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Mutagen

[regal bramble]

Mutagen?So ark is hopping on tmnt 💀💀

What stat do i need to up for a procoptodon?

(Kangoroo)

[ornate marsh]

for things like that i like health (for the dmg from a jump/getting attacked) and weight to travel with a kit and other things

what i read (correct me if im wrong please) it is better to use mutagen on wild tames to get more levels and then breed them instead of on a bred dino

[river wolf]

bred dino mutagen dont pass down to offspring

also mutagen takes literally 3 decades and a half to farm, i'd only use it for unbreedables with basilisk because its far less insanity inducing to breed and mutate

[ornate marsh]

i was asking bc i was going to lower the cost of mutagen. unless thats too broken

[river wolf]

wdym lower the cost

[ornate marsh]

make it need less for creatures.

[river wolf]

thats possible? sounds balanced to me.

[ornate marsh]

(using random configs to add a few more settings that shouldve been a setting to begin with)

so technically not a setting but should have been. dont see why you grind in excruciating pain for mutagen instead of just breeding mutations so this allows for mutagen to be more of a factor instead of wasting time for breeding (SP so just me)

[molten falcon]

i would personally just set a max of like 200, just so the dinos with nonexistent cloning costs can still be mutagen'd

[ornate marsh]

heres another question. one of the last lol. LevelExperienceRampOverrides=(ExperiencePointsForLevel[0]=1,ExperiencePointsForLevel[1]=2,ExperiencePointsForLevel[2]=6.
This above ^^^ is smthn i was looking at of someone elses user settings. they have it going all the way to [299]=199999 or whatever. this lets your character go to lvl 299 or round abouts right?

[ornate marsh]

theres a setting for cloning costs as well

[solemn python]

when can Magmasaurs eat things other than ambergris? I cant acquire ambergris atm and im wondering if my magmasaur will survive long enough on 100x maturation to eat things other than it

[charred vale]

You can feed them sulfur too

[ornate marsh]

iirc when maturing dinos gain certain amounts of food and health which usually means with boosted maturation they do not actually need food to eat. ofc you can feed them sulfur but most likely it wont even need anything.

also you can skip it dying if it does start losing health by using a snow owl if you have one

[hoary charm]

it takes so long to load into ark for me, like im doing the normal loading process and it gets stuck on somethin like "primalgamedata_BP"
and I had to wait 10 MINUTES TO GET IN only for ark to crash, it literally took me 10 minutes, 21 seconds, and 72 milliseconds according to my stopwatch, anyone know how to fix this?

[solemn python]

sounds fairly normal if you are modded and on a HDD

thats about my loading times and I use a few mods

if not modded though thats pretty slow

[ornate marsh]

Fatal Error!
Version 351.1

[UnknownFile:0]

anyone know what causes this?

mod out of date, mods clashing or?

[pastel flare]

i dont know does this happend when you start up?

[ornate marsh]

was loading into SP and when it went into the loading screen (where the tips and such are) it gave me the error

[solemn python]

does it happen repeatedly?

sometimes ark just crashes for no reason

[ornate marsh]

well this is the first time i tried to load in.

[solemn python]

try again, see if it happens again

[ornate marsh]

alrighty

[hasty wolf]

Either A. Redownload Ark, B. Remove/redownload mods

If not those then there might be something wrong with the save file and you have to go in and fix it

Manually

There’s lots of tutorials on it, if you mess it up you might delete your everything

[river wolf]

how do skeletal dinos spawn

[plain stag]

Just have a chance to spawn like alphas

[river wolf]

any map right?

[ornate marsh]

Yeah Ive never done the SP before so it doesn't matter if I have to delete saves or whatever. I'll try removing mods if it persists

[plain stag]

Yep yep

[river wolf]

thanks once again

[plain stag]

Ofc

[hoary charm]

oh, alright, also whats an HDD?

[ornate marsh]

I think it may have just been ark being ark bc it loaded me in the second time

[pine token]

Hard drive

Vs, say, an SSD

[hoary charm]

ohh ok

[ornate marsh]

what happens if you stack 2 overhaul mods

[plain stag]

Depends on the mods, but majority of the time whatever is in the 2nd loaded mod either does not load correctly, or it causes issues such as major lag, crashes, etc.

[ornate marsh]

hm mk. just saw that ark eternal said it was also made to be a second hand mod meaning you have one in the first slot then ark eternal in the second

and it'd apparently work like normal

[plain stag]

As I said it depends on the mods. Eternal has a compatibility mod as well to make it work with Primal Fear.

[regal bramble]

Interesting, thank you 😌

[sudden night]

finally beat scorched earth, now I am once again back at the dilemma if I should create a new character for aberration or use my 130 char from the previous map

🗿

[fossil trout]

if on steam, i would recommend a mod called ascension helper, which resets all xp and levels gained, but keeps tekgrams and max level achievable

[sudden night]

I dont see the mod anywhere

[fossil trout]

try just searching ascension

[sudden night]

already did

[plain stag]

Is it this one? https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1156018523

[fossil trout]

no? unless it got changed in the past 3 days or so since i’ve been on

[plain stag]

It looks like it does something similar

[sudden night]

hmm im on ab right now

trying to find stones for a pickaxe but I cant pick up any

despite being a ton of them on the ground, I guess they are just decoration

[plain stag]

I'm not seeing any mod called ascension helper while searching Google either

[fossil trout]

huh weird, lemme see if i can find it in my subscriptions menu on steam mobile

[plain stag]

Wait for an earthquake, it drops stone occasionally

[fossil trout]

oops, it’s called ascension essentials

The only currently added item is the Ascension Helper, which returns your player to level 1 and stays there, restarting the leveling process but keeping your additional max levels from Ascensions such as the Overseer or Rockwell. Learnable at level 1 for 1 fiber.

very nice mod

[sudden night]

80 downloads

howd you even find this

[fossil trout]

idk i was browsing the workshop one day

i do pretty often

[ornate marsh]

how do we disable hibernation. i think im just blind bc i cant see a string of text for it

[sudden night]

mfw cant equip my items in ab, got to relaunch game

great start so far lol

[fossil trout]

in launch settings, -preventhinernation=true i think

[sudden night]

very pretty map though

free ovis meat at the start of ab is amazing

[ornate marsh]

yay mutton

[fossil trout]

early mutton is really nice

[sudden night]

guess who just discovered aberrant raptors

[ornate marsh]

dont they still pounce?

[sudden night]

yes

[ornate marsh]

dang

[sudden night]

I missed my bola ;=;

at least I know they can do that now

i didnt know there were differences besides visual between normal and aberrant creatures

[molten falcon]

How does one turn on the Halloween event for my single player world?

[ornate marsh]

in general or advanced there is an active event box and then you type in fear evolved 6

or whatever

[sudden night]

any way to get out of said pounce by the way

[fossil trout]

nope

you can attempt to dodge it but that’s about it

[molten falcon]

Ty

[ornate marsh]

dodge it?

[fossil trout]

i think you can time it right by jumping where you can sorta dodge it

[sudden night]

I gotta learn what all these mushrooms do

[fossil trout]

agerravic mushrooms counteract the psychedelic spores in the fertile region

[sudden night]

mf 2 basilisks right at spawn

[fossil trout]

portal room?

[sudden night]

ye

getting very thirsty too

[fossil trout]

yeah, i would run to the end of the portal room and jump into the lake below it

it’s a kinda dangerous area but there’s decent resources all around there

[sudden night]

wait what are ravagers afraid of light?

I wanted to try out the glowsticks and threw them and they fled

[fossil trout]

i don’t think they are

[serene parrot]

Sorry if this is a properly stupid question, I'm still basically a noob. When you beat the bosses, do you change map??

[sudden night]

no

UH

I bola'd an ab raptor and it broke out of it quickly and pounced me??

[ornate marsh]

is the hibernation seting in game.ini or usersetting.ini

[sudden night]

neither, its in steam itself

[pine token]

It's a launch option. Hibernation is disabled by the -PreventHibernation arg.

[ornate marsh]

mk awesome thanks

[pine token]

Do they also counteract the freeze shrooms?

[plain stag]

The blue shrooms do iirc. The aquatic ones.

[pine token]

Nice

[ornate marsh]

when adding in strings of code in the gameusersettings for mods you have to manually do it they arent supposed to auto show up for you to edit right? (sorry never really done this lol

[pine token]

Some settings are there already, but many of them must be added.

And some settings (including mod-related) will also require adding the appropriate header. The mod description or manual should walk you through it.

Oh and fyi, technically it's not called code

[plain stag]

Code and config both work when talking about the strings, for ark anyway.

[pine token]

Yeah, I guess that was a little pedantic 😄

[plain stag]

Typically when someone asks "what's the code for this or this to spawn here", they understand 😂

[wide path]

Whats the biggest non offical pvp server for xbox

[ornate marsh]

usually i dont know what word fits it best lol

and strings of config doesnt sound right

[pine token]

And correcting them on the technicality probably just confuses things

[plain stag]

Probably, especially if they're newer, but it was nice of you

[plain stag]

For this stuff, either/or will work, as it's still ini files

[wide path]

?

[plain stag]

That is better suited to #pvp-discussion, as this is more ingame help, players helping players. The "best/biggest" servers are completely subjective.

[stone anvil]

in swamp cave fjordur do you need a gas mask or scuba to live in the cave ?

[tropic meteor]

yes

[river badge]

Can I transfer characters and dinos from my non-dedicated sessions to a friends non-dedicated sessions or only my own?

anyone know how to fix the ferox only getting pre tame stats once it transforms?

[sudden night]

how fast are basilisks? I saw 2 at the portal and I could outrun them no problem but I just had one that was moving at fucking mach 1 and annihilated my ass

[molten falcon]

only solution is to use a mod like Kraken's better dinos that remaps feroxes, they have an entire list of bugs on the ferox wiki page

[dusty cargo]

ah damn, thanks!

[ornate marsh]

i was looking at S+ configs and was wondering what this is... VivariumOviIntervalMultiplier

[sudden night]

aberrant raptors can DISMOUNT YOU??? what

just when I finally think I got some okay progress it gets reset just like that :/

[red olive]

Yeah, they are a pain. It used to be all raptors did that. They were more dangerous than basically anything lol

[sudden night]

also are daycycles faster in ab?

it says im in day 3 but it really does not feel like 3 hours passed

and there are so many rocks on the ground but none are pickupable ;-;

[red olive]

I think they are. I usually make the day cycles like 2 or 3 times as long

Ab is the only map that daycycle speed matters lol

[ornate marsh]

all i know is there are like seasons or whatever where theres 90% day 10% night, 50/50, and 90% night and 10% day

[sudden night]

oh boy is stuff going badly for my first ab playtrough now

[red olive]

Well, honestly that is what ab should feel like

[sudden night]

probably also because I started with a level 1 character

[red olive]

Ab is the map you play for rough pve. It is the hardest one to get going on l, unless you really know the map

[sudden night]

ah

welp

I dont think im getting my body back.... 4 basilisks are on it

thats my second soft reset....

was transferring settings from someones files and didnt know what it was

ill just delete it just incase

[plain stag]

It may have been removed then, I'd just delete it

[ornate marsh]

mk. my guess is that maybe it had to do with oviraptors giving a boost or smthn

[plain stag]

Maybe, but if it's not in the config list anymore it probably isn't used.

[hasty wolf]

Are there any mod maps similar to aberration? Speaking of which, why is so hard to find mod maps?

[plain stag]

The Chasm is decent

[hasty wolf]

looks like It has some potential, thanks!

[ornate marsh]

is it not significantly easier to make other mods instead of modded maps? feel like thatd be the reason

and with mods that add in stuff usually you can configure the ini to change things to use it in multiple different ways but with a map you cant

[plain stag]

Steam workshop is buggy when trying to look specifically for maps as well, which does not help.

[sudden night]

so I tamed some aberrant raptors on ab

but they wont attack anything when I wistle attack?

they just.. hug the enemy and never deal any damage

is this a known thing?

[halcyon lion]

the hitbox on this adolescent sino seems to be completely broken, can't whistle or imprint or change any settings

is there a way to remove the popups for bosses showing up? like say if theres a king kong boss have it not say "king kong is roaming the snow" when it spawns

[spark tulip]

Hi,
Is there a time limit on your characters items when uploaded, I know the upload in transmitters is 24hrs, is this the same for character items

[polar sandal]

yup

[polar sandal]

did you assign it to a order group by chance ?

[halcyon lion]

after I couldnt get it to work I assigned all sinos to a group just so I wouldnt whistle everything, but it fixed itself a bit later and I got the imprint in just before it grew up

[polar sandal]

good deal

[pine token]

They did recently revamp some of the clients, as part of their efforts towards a smoother experience for Steam Deck users. Perhaps they'll get around to revamping the store/workshop/etc. experience as well.

I was pretty enthusiastic when the new Android client rolled out, and then I realized that the site itself still needs some work. (Plus, the app's browser has some sort of caching issues when navigating to pages from the web.)

[rare berry]

Are any dinos good for harvesting lots of keratin from corpses?

[fossil trout]

saber tooth harvests more hide, chitin, and keratin

[vale burrow]

how long does it take dinos to respawn after dino wipe

[molten falcon]

depends on the map. they start respawning fairly quickly, but it can take a while for the whole map to fill back up

[vale burrow]

how long does it usually take to fully respawn all of the dinos

im on the center

[fringe rover]

Anywhere from 5-30 min, roughly

[molten falcon]

no idea on that

[vale burrow]

is it possible to make them respawn faster

i currently have a problem with which im assuming is a rendering issue , i have screenshots but sadly dont have perms to send images in this channel is there somewhere i could post the image to show my issue and hopefully get it resolved

[elfin stream]

I have some questions about if weather or not I can add all these dinos safely to my rag server

fjordhawk, Amargasaurus, karkinos, Basilisk, desmodus, dinopithacus, Enforcer, ferox, Megachalon, Magmasaur, rockdrake, ravager, Sinomicrops, roll rat, Tropeoganathus

I don't care about nests but

1. Do the desmodus need to be in caves? Can I just have them spawn at Damiens atoll or something?
2. can I make Megachalons spawn on land? Or do they only spawn in water?
3. Are Tropeoganathuses like quetzals where they have their own spawn container or can I have them spawn more like pteranadons?

If there is any other issues with the other creatures I've listed please let me know

[sudden night]

anyone got tips taming ravagers earlygame in ab?

they usually come in packs so if I try to bola them thats already a problem and there is no way I can get enough time to tranq them when bolad

[river wolf]

could be on windows

Hey guys, what map should i start. I got to the point to tame rexes on fjordur and a bug happened and i lost all my stuff so i decided to make a new world. I only have 26 hours of playtime so what is an easy map but an beautiful map, any suggestions?

[regal bramble]

I went into the brute cave with 3 megalodons and 1 barry, they got killed by a bunch of megalodons and an alpha.Anyone know how i could get my stuff back?

[river wolf]

are you able to use anything outside of the island? do you have anything at base that could help?

[undone geode]

rags amazing and has alot to offer other than rag lost islands a close second

imo ofc

[stiff topaz]

LI > rag imo

+1 for LI though, pretty map design for the most part, good variety, oceans are actually decent

[river wolf]

we all know that lost island objectively is bad because it is the only map that has sinomacrops

[stiff topaz]

i- ok you have a good point

[undone geode]

yeah but i just like the highlands on rag

[stiff topaz]

it feels kinda empty for the most part to me, the places where it has rivers in it is nice though and the grass is pretty

[undone geode]

quick of topic question whats the best spawn on fjord other than vardiland

cos i dont wanna spawn there

[river wolf]

jokes aside, most if not all of the free maps are pretty similiar. newer ones will of course have more types of biomes/items because prior they didnt exist so if youre aiming for having a mega ton of stuff to do then the likes of fjordur or lost island would probably be better than the centre or rag

[undone geode]

so basically where on vannaland should i spawn

[river wolf]

i forgor all the names but the south west island is where i spawned, not the main big one or balheimr

[undone geode]

yeah i dont really wanna spawn there cos thats where everyone goes but

it might be worth a shot

[river wolf]

ive heard the crystal isles floaty island realm is good

[undone geode]

maybe

screw it imma spawn in the eastern island XD

[river wolf]

spawn in the mountains of scorched earth and try not to get destroyed by a microraptor for more than 5 seconds. impossible challenge.

[undone geode]

edit spawn in scorched earth.

i think my graphics are bugged

my map is all blacked out and so are some dinos

[river wolf]

did you download fjordur

[undone geode]

ye

but a while ago

[undone geode]

i just updated my ark do u think thats the issue ?

[river wolf]

i dont know, you should probably ask someone who knows their stuff because im just as clueless as you

[stiff topaz]

Blacked out? Would you mind sending a screenshot?

#fanart-and-screenshots i think should be ok?

[undone geode]

i could sent you a screenshot in dms (dont wanna get in trouble again ) XD

[stiff topaz]

alright, fair enough

[plain stag]

Nope, you'll have to go to scorched earth and kill the DodoWyvern, or spawn them in or trade ingame for them.

You can look up the lists on dododex

Maewing are usually the default now though

[plain stag]

[turbid sand]

I have a couple questions I can't seem to find the answers for either through the discord search feature or via google. Hopefully someone can answer: What's the max level zombie wyverns spawn in at? And do they die similar to the way titanosaurs do after claiming?

[elfin stream]

Not sure about levels but I know it's always higher than your servers tek and wyvern level and no you keep them forever regularly unless they changed it

[molten marsh]

Xbox single player, how would I enable flyers in caves

[icy canopy]

Is there a bug where you loose your mount when teleporting on Fjord?

I teleported and my managarmr didn not come with me

[verbal cargo]

Teleport back and then again and it should be there

Its probably just the glitch where they’re invisible for a while

[icy canopy]

Okay I will try that but its been awhile since I teleported

[verbal cargo]

Go back to your home tp

Then wait a bit

Then tp to your mana again

Mana*

[icy canopy]

Well I am visiting and have no tek teleport I am using the Fjord teleport system and teleported in the middle of no where

[verbal cargo]

Ok just tp random then tp to the mana again

[icy canopy]

So hjow do I know where my mana is?

[verbal cargo]

What

oh the place you teleported when it dissapeared

[icy canopy]

So is there a go back teleport because I only saw the realm options

[verbal cargo]

Where was the place you teleported to

When you lost the mana

m a n a*

[icy canopy]

I teleported to it again and it wasnt there

[verbal cargo]

Did you teleport in the weird teleport cave

With the realms

[icy canopy]

Teleported from a meadow trying to get close to the bat cave and when we got there the mana was not with us

[verbal cargo]

Are you sure it was in the tp bubble

[icy canopy]

I give up trying to get the the cave at 40/75 ish

[verbal cargo]

Try going back to the place you teleported from the first time

If it’s not there idk

I guess check the log

It could’ve meshed or something

[icy canopy]

I did not teleport from a specifc place out in the middle of no where have you been on Fjord yet?

[verbal cargo]

Yes

But like

The area you were at when you teleported

Try going back to it if you have another tame with you

[vague onyx]

Hello. Does anyone know if a dedicated server shares the same save as a non dedicated? Meaning if I have been running a dedicated server and then one day decide to make it non dedicated will all the buildings/characters/Dino’s/items stay or will it start a completely new session?

[bleak sparrow]

Ominous

[rare berry]

Anyone know how to cycle through the dino storage v2 soul balls in my inventory?

[pine token]

I think you would equip the soul gun thingy and then use it to do that. I forget which key/button though.

[plain stag]

Left ctrl

[polar sandal]

you can upload a single player world, and hosts like nitrado have ways to import map and player data

[rare berry]

@plain stag left ctrl doesn't do anything.

[remote haven]

I have a big green circle around my base that looks like a feeding circle range. But I don’t have any feeding troughs in this area, how do I fix this?

[vague onyx]

What about if we want to play other maps together? This is Xbox/windows cross play btw. We are running our current server on the pc windows machine as the dedicated host and joining off our Xbox’s. Is there any way to transfer our characters/tamed etc. to another map without losing our current worlds save or is that not possible since we can’t use ASM and set up a cluster being on the windows version.

[polar sandal]

only way I know for sure how to do that would be to have two servers clustered and transfer. there may be a way to transfer your data directly I just haven't done it or know anything about that.

all I've seen is like the map import and player data upload in the web interface

[vague onyx]

Thank you. By web interface do you mean something on the website? There’s no upload option on a dedi server only transfer and the transfer options are blank since there isn’t a cluster. Idk how we would cluster another map in without another pc although we do have a third Xbox. The problem there though is I don’t think Xbox can cluster since it doesn’t have files you can look through like a pc. Unless I’m completely misunderstanding the process

[polar sandal]

yeah what I'm speaking of is what I saw when I used nitrado as a paid dedicated host.

clustering that way just involved buying two servers and putting the cluster I'd in

you can probably do this using PC as a host and not paying, but if your on Xbox nitrado literally has a monopoly on hosting and we can't use other services

[brazen robin]

win10/xbox can't do clusters running through the game. gotta go nitrado or transfer the long way (through upload/download and commands)

[vague onyx]

Damn. That’s pretty lame. So if I did switch to nitrado then is there any way we could transfer our current world/characters etc to the nitrado cluster or would we have to start a whole new everything?

[vague onyx]

So you mean like using the command and ascending to “upload” a character and like filling their inventory with cyro Dino’s then downloading on a new server?

[brazen robin]

yep. afaik thats the only method as win10/xbox dedis are always "clustered"

[polar sandal]

the part that I'm not sure about is the dinos. the only save data I really had access to was player data file, the map file, and the game.ini

I imagine actually PC servers have access to a ftp and more files. but... I personally can't say about the dinos

and the player data didn't seem to include inventory

[vague onyx]

I was just about to ask that. Dang, hahah. I’d gladly pay for a nitrado cluster if I knew I could get our map/character/Dino’s over to it but my fiancé is so attached to the ones we have I don’t think she’d be down to start from scratch with tames

[brazen robin]

you should be able to if you transfer the saves even on xbox/win10 nitrado (if its a dedicated, non-dedi on win10 don't save normally)

[polar sandal]

I feel that. there may be a way. I just uploaded our map and we started new characters though so I just didn't dig into it much

I played with the player data file when people fell through maps or died etc to get their stuff back but it would just like move their location. they didn't get their stuff back. that may of been my doing or how I was, but seemingly it didn't save items

[vague onyx]

Yea it’s a dedicated server run from an alt profile on the pc. It’s literally just there to run the server.

[abstract junco]

not only feeding troughs can show range, try checking your tames if they have the show visual range on

[brazen robin]

thats what I did. yeah the folder that has the map file has the survivor saves as well.

not sure if you can move things in upload but can just download them

[remote haven]

I read that I crypod all my Dino’s and it was still there it totally driving me crazy

[polar sandal]

ah so if you upload to a ob, change maps the items in the ob will be there? or did I totally read that wrong

[brazen robin]

I meant download the uploaded stuff onto the map so it transfers to the server but that is how transferring works

[vague onyx]

So we would just leave everything out as is and then transfer that file to the nitrado server? After that all the Dino’s etc on the map should stay? Or are you saying to upload them first, then transfer the save and RE download them once the nitrado is up and running?

[brazen robin]

transfer the save with everything on it. map save contains all the structures and dinos. survivor contains the survivor data(not uploaded data), ark tribe is obvious.

[polar sandal]

gotcha

[abstract junco]

hmmm try checking other items that can show visual range, also try relogging, see if that helps, because sometimes it bugs out

[remote haven]

I will, it been stuck there for like 3 months I just finally decide to post to see if anyone has an idea. I kinda feel it was from a trough that had its range showing when I destroyed it

[brazen robin]

the save folder looks something like this, and if nitrado works like ASM. just gotta move that into where it saves and you got all the save data

[polar sandal]

got a maewing ?

[remote haven]

None that are out sadly

[polar sandal]

we don't get ftp on Xbox nitrado. no direct file access

[brazen robin]

can't upload or download any files? then nitrado xbox/win10 sucks

just keep running through win10

[polar sandal]

we can copy paste ini

we can upload a map

we can import player data

annnnd import server config preset

that is it lol

[brazen robin]

the upload map can't upload the other files in the same folder?

[polar sandal]

no it has to be a map extension file

[brazen robin]

import player data is?

[abstract junco]

maybe turrets?

[polar sandal]

eh like I said I've played with it some but legit all it seemed to be was a list of players on the servers their level, and last location

[brazen robin]

not sure why it would need that if you can't upload your survivors lol

[polar sandal]

I had people fall through the map so I'd roll back player data. they would be back where they were but inventory still gone

[brazen robin]

ah, overwriting the location

[remote haven]

I don’t have any turrets 😭. I truly fear it’s not fixable

[abstract junco]

oof that's gotta suck, that neon green shine hurts my eyes lmao

[polar sandal]

to me after a while I was like this is just so you can offload your data and then when you subscribe again reupload it isn't it.

[remote haven]

I wouldn’t even mind expect it goes like through the middle of my main base

[brazen robin]

what was the extension of that file?

the location of players should be in their survivor save not in a single file for all players at least I can't find it in my server files

[polar sandal]

bleh... NGL I shut the server down a while ago and I can't look

[brazen robin]

I don't know, I feel it'd be VERY dumb to have a way to upload map saves but not survivor saves 😂 I bet it does have a way

[polar sandal]

it was on the main setting page... neat the top, just a section that said like click here to import a map, then under that was an option to make a procedural generated map

[polar sandal]

possibly. I just didn't see it. but like I been saying I only briefly messed with it.

[primal glacier]

how do i use emotes

[polar sandal]

eh not sure for steam exactly but it's on one of your radial wheel options

[primal glacier]

how do i access said radial wheel

nvm found it

[polar sandal]

gg

[flint forge]

best base location in Crystal Isle??

[sacred relic]

Youtube has very good vids about base locations

[orchid zenith]

i cant tame anything other than doodooos and low level dinos what am i doing wrong
sometimes they dont even have the option to open their inventory
or i cant knock them unconcious

[modern drift]

I can give you advice for knocking things out but I can't help with bugged inventories.
Unless they are passive tames. Did you try to open the inventory of a lystro or moschops?

[orchid zenith]

wut

yeah how do passive tames work

[modern drift]

You walk up to hem with food in your last slot, once close enough click the prompt. E for steam I think.

It will tell you what they want if you don't have it.

[orchid zenith]

ok

[polar sandal]

cool story bro

[south imp]

Mhm, 100% that's why ur here

I have DID lmao, it's informative for open minded people

That's only arkpocalypse

[naive dust]

Arkpoc is the shit

[south imp]

If u don't wanna get wiped then play nonded or official

[polar sandal]

looks like a good topic for #general

people's use this channel for support.

[south imp]

Nah he's a bob lmao

[naive dust]

You just said you’re playing official though

[south imp]

Girl then why r u here

How is that a bad thing 😂

[polar sandal]

🤦 you two

[naive dust]

Lol I think you offended his delicate sensibilities

[south imp]

I bet u I did

Oh well, least I'm not a bob complaining about how bad a game is while staying in the server

[limpid socket]

I keep getting No sessions found on Xbox for all server types. I have tried restarting console, restarting modem, deleting save files. Nothing seems to work.

[south imp]

This happens sometimes, usually goes away after a day. If it persists I'd say submit a ticket with a dev

[limpid socket]

Ah okay that sucks. Just did some server boosts on Gen 2 earlier and now I can’t take advantage of them 😭

[south imp]

@steady gale

[naive dust]

I’ll stop playing when Ark2 drops

[limpid socket]

Just rent a server and play with a good group of friends. It’s so much better than official

[steady gale]

If these conversations aren’t related to helping others I suggest you move along

[naive dust]

Don’t do it, make him stay

[south imp]

Anyhow, if there's any new ppl who would like some free tropeos hmu

PVE official

[elder dock]

Stats?

[south imp]

500 melee 9k hp 1500 stam

1k weight

[sacred relic]

rag or lost island on singleplayer, i have only 30 hrs

[south imp]

Lost

[gleaming drift]

I am not able to find servers at all XBox PVE restarted etc

[sacred relic]

which easier?

[south imp]

Personally I think lost island

[past mesa]

Lost island, get yourself some chitin and a sino and you’re basically set lol

[sacred relic]

i have my 30hours in fjordur with broken dino stats

But im gonna start a lost island w legit dino stats and faster breeding stats

[lethal otter]

fix the paints not crafting in the cooker #wildcard

[stable ridge]

No I’m definitely on Xbox

[polar sandal]

is your ark on a external ?

[stable ridge]

Ima be honest idk what that even means

My ark is not a disc if that’s what you’re asking

I downloaded it to my Xbox

[polar sandal]

ah so like you got your Xbox storage. then some people buy like an additional... box... thing with more storage you hook to your Xbox.

"external hard drive"

[stable ridge]

Nonono my storage isn’t full yet

It’s on my regular Xbox.. uh box

[polar sandal]

hmmm I really have no idea why it wouldn't save your... save then. when you go to load it you click the little floppy disc icon that's on like the left side of the map name on single player ?

[plain stag]

Have to equip either a soul ball or the gun. My keyboard is all default, if you've changed yours iy may ba different. I was replying to Fitz, as they mentioned you have to hold the gun as well.

[bronze steeple]

so I tried to build a small structure off of the shore of herbavore Island in my single player thing is the fabricator and grill I put there won't work

using pillars and celings why didn't they turn on when I put gas in them as the E to turn on prompt didn't show up

[polar sandal]

hmmm someone yesterday had something similar. are you using any stack mods ? or a mod that may effect fuel consumption?

[molten falcon]

wait so ive heard abt poly karkino so i tamed one so now how do i get poly with it?

[elfin stream]

You kill them and they drop poly dude...

[molten falcon]

oh i thought they are just like bats when harvesing anything they get bloodpacks

[elfin stream]

Lol no they drop poly when you harvest them like Mantis and penguins

[molten falcon]

are karkinos at least better for harvesting it from bodies?

[elfin stream]

I don't think so no

Pretty decent tame though for resource gathering

[molten falcon]

okay tysm!

[elfin stream]

Np

[placid cedar]

Are they slightly in the water?

[potent wagon]

is there a way to get edit the settings in singleplayer for ark mobile?

[tepid crescent]

Anyone know why you cannot transfer kibble, jerky, or some eggs off of furdurdur?

[naive dust]

They can only be transferred once

[tepid crescent]

Oh. That doesn't explain the eggs though. Egg was laid on that server, but won't transfer off.

[stone anvil]

are you always supposed to breed females with 0/20 muts ?

and always the mutated male to super breed ?

[tepid crescent]

The females just have to have under 20/20. It's better to have it closer to 0/20 Incase the mutation you want is on a female, and you need to get it back to the male.

[cloud shard]

can u find albino dinos in the wild

[elfin stream]

Some dinos have the ability to spawn with white colour regions yes but not all of them alpha dinos are commonly albino though

[cloud shard]

f i wonder if albino sarcos exist

[elfin stream]

They do not sadly if you wonder if something can spawn albino just type into Google ark <whatever dino> wiki.gg then click on the first link and scroll to the colour regions and if the first region has white in a little box underneath the picture it can spawn albino

[cloud shard]

tek stuff can be tamed right

[elfin stream]

Yep their only difference is that they can only breed with other tek variations of their species and they spawn naturally at a higher level cap

[cloud shard]

damnn

found a beautiful tek raptor

[slate void]

Is there any way to watch ark animated series without hbo

[brazen robin]

its not out yet and I haven't seen anything on it being on hbo

[pine token]

JustWatch lists it as coming soon on HBO Max

Although it also says 2021 so 🤷‍♂️

Oh, 2021 is by the channel button. Hmm

[brazen robin]

most likely lying for clicks 🤷 I haven't seen anything official saying what platform its on

[pine token]

Yeah the usual sources don't say anything about that either, so probably BS or unintentional

[slate void]

Hbo isn't in my country

[icy canopy]

Can you clone coelacanth I have 2.5 at the moment

[elfin stream]

If you can clone water dinos but idk if you can

[icy canopy]

I know you can clone tuso and such I hope I can clone this fish

[elfin stream]

I would assume youd be able to then yeah

[sonic panther]

Advice for killing a skeletal quetzal on the island? Preferably with tames or stuff I can obtain on the island.

I know the standard quetz flees when attacked. I assume it’s the same with the skeletal variant.

[sudden night]

whats the deal with karkinos? I fucking swear I am hitting the dude's head yet like 75% of my shots dont count

[ancient thicket]

How does instatame work? Like can you just go up to a dino and press a button then boom, its tamed?

Or do you knock it out, and then when you force feed it you dont have to wait, it just immediately gets tamed?

[brazen robin]

what do you mean by instatame.

[thorny cliff]

can anyone tell me if there is supposed to be pumpkin, gravestones, and scarecrows on the fjordur servers? I have a private server with the event enabled but they dont show up

[brazen robin]

if you mean commands is the first one.
if you mean by settings its the second one they just need to eat once.
if you mean starve taming its just not giving them food until they can "instant tame" its not any faster tho.

[placid cedar]

U are supposed to hit its main body, not the head for taming karkinos

[ancient thicket]

Well im Xbox and when I go on the club and then to the Looking for Group page, I see some people’s post’s say that the server includes instatame

[brazen robin]

most likely high taming rates then.

[ancient thicket]

Oh right, thank you

[sudden night]

the main body is its head though

[placid cedar]

The head is only at the front portion, u have to hit the top shell surface of its main body

[sudden night]

alright

hows the accuracy of the catapult? should I aim a little bit higher than where it needs to go to hit the top of the kark or do I aim lower?

or is the aim dead on already

[placid cedar]

I usually aim slightly higher

[sudden night]

is there like any metal on abberration in the early zone? I found one single node but I moved my base and survived from the little metal I had from that until now

and I am about to run out. should I just risk the blue zone for a short moment?

[pine token]

There are a few spots in green that have more than just one or two metal rocks, but they're a bit higher up

[river wolf]

check the wiki for nodes. the surface entrances are safe and have mega tons of metal too, theres one nearby fertile lake

[sudden night]

alright im going crazy here

I just cant get most of my catapult shots to count on the karkinos

I must be doing something wrong :/

I have deleted my last bit of metal I had

[cloud shard]

karkinos trap?

[sudden night]

tried normally so far

[cloud shard]

did u use pillars or metal fence supports?

[sudden night]

I meant I tried it with a catapult and thats it

[elfin stream]

Anyone know why my Fjord hawks won't spawn with this?

ConfigAddNPCSpawnEntriesContainer=(NPCSpawnEntriesContainerClassString="DinoSpawnEntries_Ragnarok_Scotland_C",NPCSpawnEntries=((AnEntryName="highlands",EntryWeight=0.1,NPCsToSpawnStrings=("Tropeognathus_Character_BP_C","FjordHawk_Character_BP_C"),NPCsToSpawnPercentageChance=(0.1,0.1))))

[cloud shard]

u should trap it then attack

[sudden night]

is there like any decent method to do it without a trap though? I usually want to tame things at least once normally to learn more about it's normally done and the creature itself etc

[cloud shard]

yt called captain fatdog pretty easy

[sudden night]

only see traps sadly

oh well

[elfin stream]

Thats what we were telling you to search

Theres a reason why people trap this thing

[sudden night]

yeah I see there is a reason why people build traps but you specifically replied to my comment about there not being a trap method

I am building a trap now

[plain stag]

If you are not going to be helpful in the help channel, or respectful, then don't say anything.

[sudden night]

its just that I usually want to try to tame each dino normally at least once for a slight sence of accomplishment 🗿

[plain stag]

The karkinos is super annoying to tame even with a trap, so definitely don't recommend trying so without.

[cloud shard]

just find something high level and use the most basic bow and tranq arrow to knock it out

[sudden night]

tranq arrows do not work on karkinos, you have to use a catapult or cannon

[cloud shard]

reread what i wrote

esp the beginning

[sudden night]

I mean we are specifically talking about taming karkinos and changing the topic to a different creature then is a bit strange

[cloud shard]

i mean i was replying to this

karkinos tame with a cannon

[sudden night]

im still stuck in green zone and I am dangerously low on metal

should I maybe just risk a metal run in blue?

[river badge]

I'm going to change the pve setting that removes cryopod sickness to fight the dodorex. I know that changing this setting has several other effects but I can't find a full list. Does anyone have a list of changes from checking the pve box on console.

[sudden night]

you cant damage structures or tamed dinos and players including your own

but you also cannot kill unclaimed baby dinos which is the main downside

I honestly have no idea how people even breed with pve only on, I must be missing something right

[river badge]

It's one reason I keep it off.

And it will go back off after dodorex is dead.

But I'm curious about the full effects

[sudden night]

as far as I know the ones I listed are the only changes besides the cryopod one too of course

[river badge]

I thought carrying wild dinos with fliers also may be effected

[red olive]

That is a separate setting. I don't recall if it is enabled or disabled by default. There should be a checkbox for sp though

[stiff topaz]

• cryosickness
• osds take damage from tames
• corrupted can damage structures
• you can carry wild dinos (there is a setting for this but it may be bugged like the caveflyers)
• you can damage unclaimed dinos

[river badge]

Thanks

[primal glacier]

is there an 'ini' thing for reducing the interval between babies wanting care?

[pine token]

Yes. Check:
https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Server_configuration

[polar sandal]

1 is default. lower is faster. you will need to increase or lower... mostly increase if you do faster.... the imprint amount modifier as well otherwise you will have a grown baby before you finish imprinting

BabyCuddleIntervalMultiplier=1

[primal glacier]

so cuddle just means care?

[polar sandal]

if by care you mean like the imprinting process yeah. like when it's like hey take me for a walk, or whatever

I guess it does say wants care in... so yeah.. either way. cuddle is care.

[brisk lynx]

Can oy pc players play mts?

[pine token]

Can you rephrase that

[brisk lynx]

Can any outher consal play on music outher then pc

[pine token]

I still don't understand

[brisk lynx]

What consoles can play on music (mts is a server)

[brazen robin]

MTS is only on PC (and steam at that as I believe it uses mods), none of the console platforms can connect.

[brisk lynx]

Alr

[brazen robin]

they used to be on playstation but stopped it I think last year.

[polar sandal]

glad you knew what he was... meaning.

[ornate marsh]

excuse me what

[molten falcon]

What

[late heath]

How do I make eternal, paradise, and primal fear compatible with each other

The hardest question ever be like

[river badge]

My gf brought some tames to my world

They all reverted to level 1

Any idea why?

[ornate marsh]

no clue what paradise is but if you are ok to cut it then the other two can easily be made compatible

[late heath]

Parados*

🙂

[river badge]

Is there anyway for my gf to bring her dinos to my world without them reverting to level 1?

[late heath]

Dunno

Maybe too high lvl?

[river badge]

No, they weren't even level 150

[ornate marsh]

is she transferring them in cryopods?

[river badge]

Yes

[ornate marsh]

thats the issue

dont ever transfer dinos in cryopods

it will show they have lvls but when thrown out itll delete it all and set them to lvl 1

instead upload then download the dinos. its 20 dinos max at a time but you keep all the lvls just gotta transfer any saddles if you wanted in the ark data and not on them

so i have an issue with ark that whenever my laptop restarts it gets rid of ark on my micro sd (im going to be removing it from now on bc i didnt realize thats why it was happening) and i have a way to recover the files but if i recover them will it take up more space or fill the existing space the files are still taking up? (even though no files are present anymore there are still the "phantom files" taking up so much space) so should i try formatting the drive to delete it all then try recovering or just recover and hope

[polar sandal]

I have better luck tranafering with cryos in my inventory. some don't.

like I've personally never had it happen from my inventory, but that doesn't mean it won't happen

[ornate marsh]

yeah better safe than sorry

[polar sandal]

you said micro SD which leads me to believe your mobile user ?

[ornate marsh]

nah pc

laptop using steam

[polar sandal]

fair

if you format it, it will remove all data on it

I'd do what you can to recover the data before formatting it

[ornate marsh]

btw my conundrum is that in the recovery program is it says "existing files" so i didnt know if itd get the files back and just clear the space maybe

ive had alot of issues with space so losing 200-350 gbs worth of space is not an option

[polar sandal]

Humm hard to say just offhand. I'd just pull the files off it, format it, then move the files back on. really though if you format anything it'll wipe it clean in the process. I imagine you'll probably have one of those "are you sure" popups when you go to do it

if it shows data used but when viewing the card on your PC it may be a mismatch in the formatting.

it's like why you speakin Greek to me idk what you talking about

[placid cedar]

Max 10 at a time, not 20

[ornate marsh]

oops thought it was 20 my bad

[sinful ivy]

so idk what mod spawned it but i found a golden dodo and chased it and when i caught up it disapeared what does that mean?

like what did i do?

[ornate marsh]

it means it probably despawned

you cant do anything. its ark sadly

[sinful ivy]

now im curious what it could have done

i started this world with like primal fear extinction core and dox

so idk wich one spawned it

[ornate marsh]

wait are those all overhauls?

[sinful ivy]

it takes 15 minutes to load once

yeah pretty much

i wanted to see what it would do

it seems every zone is dominated by one thing

[ornate marsh]

hm. be careful. mixing abunch of overhauls is not good if only just for playability in how they interact. one can be super broken another super weak and one might overshadow the other 10 fold

[sinful ivy]

yeah i saw a zone dominated by a mega hell ovis

i died like 20 times too

[ornate marsh]

usually things like primal fear are in their own catagory and can be played by their own and not have any issues with running out of things to do (until you beat it) just a warning up to you what you take from it if you do at all. have fun and be careful

also i ran into another issue. i cant do anything except format unless i have a way to get rid of a file called libraryfolder.vdf. is there anyway to do this? i have no option to delete it at all

[sinful ivy]

Alright have a great night

[primal glacier]

organic polymer acts the same to polymer as chitin acts to keratin right?
as in interchangeable?

[sonic panther]

Answering my own question, but would an argentavis squadron be good?

[ornate marsh]

probably. do you have access to engrams from other maps or no?

[sinful ivy]

yes you can use organic polymer as polymer but simply remember to use most of it since it spoils

like dont go overboard on what you take if its too much it will just spoil

[ornate marsh]

or get a way to get tons at once and you can collect as much as you want. the feeling of being able to gather tons of a resource is amazing doesnt matter if it spoils just the fact you got it

[sonic panther]

I do have the other maps, i just want to go through singleplayer story a map at a time. Also just wanted to try something that is native to the map.

[sinful ivy]

but dont kill more penguins than you should they dont spawn that quickly

[ornate marsh]

yeah whatd i'd do is have a flock of argies only pumped into melee and then attack it. youll have to be quick with it and make sure they stay on follow but you should be fine to use them for it

[sonic panther]

cool, and one more thing to ask, i heard the dodorex is now immune to bleed from carnos, allos and thylas. Is this true?

[ornate marsh]

most likely yes. otherwise say 20 bites or so from a thyla and its dead. kinda op

[sonic panther]

yeah, sucks that the change happened after 6-7 years since it debuted, on the last fear evolved event. Well I guess ill treat him like the dragon fight, got to get some good bred therizinosaurs.

[primal glacier]

i just got an in-game message that said the dodorex was here

how strong is it and where do i find it

[ornate marsh]

no set location. google says : 666,666 health points

[sonic panther]

think of him as almost a beta difficulty dragon boss, minus the flight

[primal glacier]

does he despawn?

[sonic panther]

he spawns every 3rd day at midnight and despawns at 5:15am, that is the amount of time you have to slay him before he leaves and comes back the next 3rd day

[open ice]

Can a Reaper Queen destory Stone Structures?

[sonic panther]

No. There is a good reason why lots of reaper queen traps use stone.

[open ice]

How large is the base of a traditional Reaper Queen trap?

Like how many foundations by how many foundations

[sonic panther]

she is as big as a giga, maybe use that as a basis for the size, tho if you want to get impregnated, she might fail to grab you when its time as structures tend to block her tailgrab.

[open ice]

Im thinking of making a 5x5 foundation base for it. Is that too small or excessively large?

[open ice]

Ive got my ways to get around that tail grab structure block

[sonic panther]

that should be big enough, just be careful

[open ice]

Be careful of what exactly?

[sonic panther]

you know how it is with ark, things can go wrong no matter how well you prepare. I mean be careful in that sense.

[ornate marsh]

how often can they impregnate you?

[open ice]

Just for confirmation, a Reaper Queen is unable to fit through a space that is 2 foundations wide right?

[primal glacier]

it seems that once i equip a chibi, that is my chibi and i cant equip a new one, is there any way around this because i really dont like me chibi

[sonic panther]

Im not sure, i have heard that as long as she doesn't leave and her hp is less than 2,000, indefinitely. Not sure of the cooldown. *For whitehawk

[open ice]

Ah crap. The Reaper Queen just found my little foundation and she is now just standing by it

[orchid zenith]

whats the easiest mob to tame that can fly

[open ice]

Id say the Pteranodon. Low torpor, can be Bola'd. Often found in safe areas

[sonic panther]

Wait a minute, which map are you on if i may ask?

[open ice]

Me? Aberration

[sonic panther]

they don't exist on abberration, also no true fliers allowed.

oh wait you answer another person

[open ice]

I mean I was answering Stevejockey's question. I wasnt speaking for myself

[sonic panther]

my bad, anyway hows the reaper queen situation?

[orchid zenith]

island

[open ice]

Well, She found my area and she is currently harassing me. But other than that, so far so good

Also, another question. What is the highest height (in walls) that a reaper queen can just step over?

[naive dust]

I recommend watching a video and building a proven reaper trap for impregnations. A lot of traps can block the animations and stop her from doing the thing.

[open ice]

I know it can. But I have learned a method to get around that.

[sonic panther]

The method i went with, while risky was just attacking her with my rock drake till the below 2,000 hp threshold mark, shoot her, wait for her to grab me off of the drake. Of course i bring a shield incase of the final attack before leaving and medical brews. Tho this method makes her leave upon successful impregnation. So dinoboy, are you in a server or singleplayer?

I only did this method as i am too lazy to build a trap

[open ice]

Singleplayer with some mods active.

Most importantly, in my opinion, is Structures Plus, so I do have access to those items

[primal glacier]

is there any difference between green and blue chibis?

[south imp]

Rarity

Green is common, blue is uncommon

So on and so on

[primal glacier]

are there any other rarities and do rarities affect anything?

[bright turret]

any ark coders able to help me out?

[brazen robin]

they don't work any differently. just rarer.

[brazen robin]

should ask the question people will answer faster

[bright turret]

well all the terminal bosses were set to have bbs in them but the other bosses that don’t tp u anywhere dont such as the bee boss

[brazen robin]

bbs?

[bright turret]

berry bush seeds

gfi is seed_test

[brazen robin]

oh, currency item. in their loot drops?

[bright turret]

yes

the bosses are used to earn currency so they can buy stuff from admin shop

but some reason only bosses like fenrir that tps you have bbs in them

[brazen robin]

hmm, I can't find their loot table I wonder if you can even change them.

[bright turret]

you can

idk how he did but he did

[south imp]

More rarities yes and no they don't affect anything

[brazen robin]

I mean beyla and the mini bosses.

[bright turret]

oh

so only terminal bosses can be changed?

[brazen robin]

I think it can, just can't find it.

[bright turret]

if you find it please let me know because i want all bosses to have currency in them

[brazen robin]

"DinoDropInventoryComponent_Beyla_Character_BP_C" this might be its drop table I just based it off of brood mothers so should work

[bright turret]

are you able to add it to my ini file?

i have 0 knowledge on coding ark

[brazen robin]

I know very little about loot tables

[bright turret]

😂

[bright turret]

what about the welcome message

i tried to copy and paste some code from online and it didn’t work

[ornate marsh]

so something happened and now my micro sd is write protected. i cannot event format it is there a solution to this? it wont allow me to reinstall ark at this point

[brazen robin]

as far as I can tell its,
[MessageOfTheDay]
Message=message
no quotes, put \n for a line break.

in gameusersettings I believe

[pine token]

There are a few guides out there on removing write protection.

[bright turret]

does the message of the day appear for people who join even if they have a character made?

[sonic panther]

I would like advice, in a single player, the island, play through. I want to tame a titanosaur, is it better to use the cannons (the widely accepted method) or use rocket turrets on a quetzal? I want a titanosaur just to have it.

[naive dust]

Rocket turrets?

That must be a mod

I’d use cannons, tried an true

[sonic panther]

No it’s an actual turret that a player controls that fires rockets like a rocket launcher.

Think like catapult and ballista

[naive dust]

Oh I know what you’re talking about

[main wave]

do rocket turrets even tame titans? idfk actually

[sonic panther]

I’m just debating if faster and more accurate but require more rocket propelled grenades to fire, or easy to miss but give lots of torpor on hit with this.

[naive dust]

Never used one though, takes less cannon balls than rockets

[agile crow]

Any concussion/explosive weapon works

[sonic panther]

I mean I saw videos of the Mek with its rocket Insta knocking out a titanosaur.

With 1 or 2 shots

[main wave]

worth a shot? (ba dum tssh)

[naive dust]

Meks are by far the most efficient way
