@dusky hedgeyes you need to use a second account on a second device. if you host on win10, you won't need the account to have gold free accounts are fine.
wait, do i need 2 w10 accounts or?
you need the one you play on, and the one that hosts, the first would be your main 
yeah but wouldnt having a 2nd account need me to get ark again?
nope, the microsoft store works the same as xbox. you entire PC gets access once its downloaded
more forgiving too as its more than one PC 
but me downloading it on my main on my laptop shouldnt be a problem aslong as afterwards i get another microsoft acount logged in on my laptop?
yeah, so after its downloaded you go on the xbox app and sign into the other account. then you launch the game.
U get it from the gifts from raptor claus
ah alright, thats not too bad then
for a sec i tought i had to buy ark a 3rd time
why'd you buy it 2 times already?
long story short
used to play on xbox/w10 servers with my friends on xbox
they then switched to pc, refused to get w10 cause it was so buggy so we all decided to get ark ultimate edition on sale
for us to only play like 6 hours max because noone could agree over a base spot
and now im playing with another friend who has it on xbox
lol, thats happened to me before.
we used to have a base on crystal isles in a cave with a waterfall coming out of it near the snow biome
one day we were just grinding stuff and the alpha pulled up and just started being annoying, tho the base spot was quite good as its really hard to get in. tho they just kept camping outside of our base
eventualy it came to them taxing us 100 element a week
and later on they were gonna leave the server and gave us the huge cave in the floating islands
I will never get PvP tax 
we setup base there aswell as keeping our old base, then our tribe leader decided to join the alpha tribe and move to extinction, were 2/4 of us were kicked for being inactive
lets continue this in #ark-survival-ascended 
@brazen robin hey I found another problem
btw 1 quick question, is it in any way possible to have a dedicated server run multiple islands on w10? so that it works like the normal ark and that u can transfer items between islands? or is it stuck to only 1 island
Are you on Xbox/Win10 or the Steam/Epic (just for clarification)
@molten falcon can u plz help me with my ps4 and ark
When I launch ark with my wifi I get a bluescreen
You can have as many maps of any type you want connected together as long as the cluster ID is right
so u get a bsod when u launch ark with wifi
but its fine without wifi?
does it happen with any other games?
Can you provide resources for this on the Xbox/Windows 10 edition? AFAIK the Windows 10 edition needs have a separate instance of the game running for a dedicated server, unlike Steam which can use Steam CMD.
Or Nitrado š¤®
No not at all
have u ever gotten a bsod before this?
maybe theres something wrong with your ark installation regarding servers
worst case you'd have to reinstall ark to see if that works
else it might be a hardware issue
If Win10, i think you can just upload your character and close the dedicated server and launch a new one and download IIRC. I havent tested it but i really should since i host a server for 2 friends and I to clown on.
Steam can use Ark Server manager which i could help a lot with. From ASM devs, ASM cannot work with the Win10 edition because Win10 is just the Xbox version.
@molten falcon can u help me with this
I dont have a playstation sadly.
Dats crazy
i know that should work for stuff like singleplayer worlds and assumedly for non ded servers, so id assume it would work for ded servers.
but would that also work for my friend or would i have to manualy drag over his data?
To be honest, i'm not 100% sure on how transferring on dedicated servers for Win10. I can do some testing tonight and see if it even works. I know from experience the .ini files in Win10 edition have harsh restrictions on what can be used. MAYBE you can just input a cluster ID, but like many other settings, it might just get ignored (like custom stack override settings, NOT the generic multiplier)
I also noticed a few things that seem to be present in the Nitrado server settings which do not work on Win10, which is odd because Steam version doesn't have those issues. Particulary custom stack sizes. Win10 edition is disappointing.
i know
I'll do some testing some time after i get home from work and @ you here with my findings.
I have Ark installed on my server and Ark Server Manager setup with 2 clusters, so it should be easy to test where the settings should go ^^
Wait, I thought rare flowers don't expire, so why is the expiration bar progressing when placed inside a bee hive?
I checked the wiki and it says the spoil timer was added in v262 (couldnt confirm via archived patch notes).
But they do expire and have had spoil timers for years. It's much slower though in a hive.(?)
@molten falcon The wiki says they have a spoil timer even though they don't actually spoil. Do they start to spoil once their in the bee hive?
They spoil all the time dont they?
Hm, i've always seen them spoil in inventories. Beehives DO consume flowers every so often though.
Similar to generators consuming gasoline. I forget the timer on when it will consume a flower
Has anyone else randomly been banned for no reason? Iāve not played at all recently and I go to play on my smalltribes server and Iāve been banned.
Iāve already submitted a ticket but just curious if this has happened to anyone else
Is it that long? I thought they spoiled faster than that
wiki says 3 days 
Do boss fights scale off difficulty ? Since itās just gamma, beta, and alpha I was wondering if it has a static difficulty
difficulty changes their damage slightly, overall its easier because your dinos are higher level tho
What about number of people like the mini bosses?
not that I know of. it should be static besides the difficulty.
I thought so
how do i get more arrows for the tek bow? i have element shards in my inv but it says i have 0 arrows
how many shards? each of the arrows take a different amount of shards.
wait nvm wtf im already out of shards??? i had 8000 in my inventory wtf
yeah, some of the arrows are expensive.

It's probably the most expensive weapon to use lol
I feel absolutely stupid but how do I summon a tamed Dino at a specific level? Someone buying a wyvern from admin shop. GMSummon does wild level and taming effectiveness which I donāt want, I just want to spawn in a 266 wyvern but spawndino leaves it wild
which wyvern type
Just out of full curiosity does playing in singleplayer ignore the "Use singleplayer settings" being disabled?
Ice
nah, gotta have it enabled for it to do anything
one moment
cheat SDF Ragnarok_Wyvern_Override_Ice true 266
Thank you!!
np
Are wild Giga stats not changed much with their level? Iāve been comparing various levels and, for example, itās health is in the 80000 range regardless if itās lvl 1 or 150
Seems like the damage is what is affected the most but not by much
yeah, they only gain like 40 hp per point when wild
Interesting, yeah I been tryna convince our admin to max out the difficulty but they were hesitant mainly because of gigas
But it seems like they would technically become easier because we can find higher lvl tames
What setting in a hosted world affects stuff like chitin/keratin drops?
as in chitin/keratin drops from harvesting creatures? harvesting
Is that the same setting as the one that increases trees/rock/metal?
yes
im getting like, 80 wood out of 1 tree with 1 hit but only get 2-4 chitin / keratin from a turtle
so i just checked and its on 1.5, so should 2-4 chitin be the right amount? i dont think so right..?
2-4 chitin per hit? And with what?
How long do drops in caves need to respawn?
Hmm, its been a while since I harvested a turtle but that does sound pretty low
Anywhere from 5-30 minutes generally
Iāve been playing since this game came out on ps4 how tf do I get the charca to not eat me after sacrificing a babyās corpse
Plz
do you mean carchar?
*car charger
Yes srry I am not a fan of them
their taming since confusing.
I haven't done it but in #general there is a guide in the pins.
So, my friend and I tamed a grffin last night when we interacted with it after we tamed it we got an explorer note thing, but I accidentally clicked out of it before I could see exactly what it was. Was it like the Griffin's dossier or something?
Yes
you can view it by unselecting all explorer note filters
Is that explorer note thing the Griffin's dossier?
Yes
anyone know best way or spots to get crystal on aberration?
Crystal is everywhere on ab, look for the green crystals if you're in the starting areas (fertile lake/portal/etc). It'll drop with earthquakes as well.
the wiki says "Ascension will also upload your character" but what does this mean exactly? (ive been playing on single player so i dont think ive come across this yet)
It basically means that your chara will have all its stuff dropped on the ground at the arena, so make sure to put it all in a dino if you want to have it after ascending
In more detail, it uploads the character to the cloud and then forces you to either respawn with that chara or create a new one
equipped items as well?
Yep
On servers it generally keeps most of your items, but a good bit of them are also lost
so when i went into creative and went out of it i kept all the creative blueprints as unlocked, any way to fix this?
Log out and reload the world, should be fixed
didnt fix it
it partialy did, i never learned element or a phiomia saddle and i can still craft it in my inventory
Try killing the character
ah that fixed it thanks
btw anyone got any tips on getting a lot of cementing paste on ragnarok? got a base near blue ob and my friend and i are kinda struggling with it atm
Kill a tonne of keratin rich dinos, and chitin rich dinos, (atleast 500x in total), (an example of a keratin rich dino is: Carbonemys, Triceratops/Trikes, Carnotaurus, and other horned/large toothed/shelled creatures.)
Get the other necessary resources, (around the same amount of chitin/keratin that you have.)
also whats a good gamma for ragnarok? in the night its insanely dark and in the day its quite bright
Whatās the purpose of doorframes on box turret towers?
Yeah, last update broke it, gotta wait for a patch
It's weird bc mine have been working up until today
is there no way to increase the multiplier on level for crafting?
PerLevelStatsMultiplier_Player[11]=1
where 1 is how many points per point spent into it
Good evening, I have a bit of a "skeletal" problem it seems. I've been trying to load in a non-dedicated server. Every time I boot it up, it crashes at Ocean_North_03 or something like that. I searched it up, deleted all mods off my laptop, even unused, and I began validating the files like the internet said. Five files did not validate, it gave me a message saying this; "Five files failed to validate and will be reacquired".
- What does this mean?
- Is there anything else I can do to fix this?
two files will always fail to validate. the server list and... meh some other file.
make sure your removing mods properly. it's a bit of a process to fully do them. there's a pin here I believe
There are two reinstall mods pins
I bet one, or both, of them should get ya through
Loot beaver dams
in #building-screenshots , I put a screenshot of an issue. Can someone help me fix the issue?
I just dont know how I would explain it with words
You can copy and paste the crash message here by closing the window and using CTRL+V here.
the popup with the error code
ok well this is what appears in the battleye screen whenever I try to launch ark:
21:42:56: Starting BattlEye Service...
21:42:56: Updating...
21:42:56: Failed to initialize BattlEye Service: Windows Test-Signing Mode not supported.
how do I fix this?
windows test-signing mode, is some dev-tool like thing
not sure why you are in it.
ok, how do I get out of it?
try to verify files first
if that doesn't work and you play unofficial you can just turn off battle eye.
also in the event you have malware on your PC that will trip battle eye. running a malware scan may help, and is never a bad idea.
thats the first thing i did
all 3 of those?
i play official
try updating your drivers as well 
and i dont have malware
how?
there's literally no way you can know that until you scan
....i did
I don't believe you for some reason but. okay
i did everything i could think of before coming here
so how do i update my drivers?
i have nvidia
did you download the geforce experience thing?
or how do I get out of test signing mode?
what is that? I probably didnt
download that. and for test signing try
open command prompt and type bcdedit /set testsigning off
thats another thing I found on a website to do, and it didnt work
command prompt said it was successful and everything
did you restart your PC after?
The test mode message indicates that the test signing mode of the operating system is started on the computer. The test signing mode may start if an installed program is in a test phase because it uses drivers that are not digitally signed by Microsoft.
restarted pc and it still has the same error message
could I go into a voice channel and live stream my problems?
maybe yall could help me a bit better?
did you try deleting battleye and installing it manually 
i think youre following the same website i am lol
Oh so how do I verify those three files?
im a bit scared to do that incase i make my problems worse
Click the āStartup Settingsā tile. Click the āRestartā button to restart your PC into the Startup Settings screen. Type ā7ā or āF7ā at the Startup Settings screen to activate the āDisable driver signature enforcementā option.
idk that I'd recommend that. the test mode is to protect your PC from potentially faulty drivers
hard to make not working worse lol
ill try this
wait wheres the startup setting tile?
I guess that's for windows 8
huh
AI, you said two are unvalidated. What about the other three I have unvalidated? What do I do
alright then ill delete and manual install
Hold down the Shift key and click on Start > Power > Restart. Click on Troubleshoot > Advanced options > Startup Settings and click the Restart button. When your computer restarts, press F7 to select Disable driver signature enforcement.
I think it's just in bios
old PCs you'd just hold F4 or f5 during reboot to get to bios
difficult to say. if you've fully removed the mods, and verified the files that's really all I know. does it say which files failed ?
Nope, just that they will be reacquired
Well i've only seen this once since the whole process takes about an hour
yeah steam downloads suck
But I literally deleted the mods file, for safe measures
that's what most people do then someone says "deleting them dosent uninstall them"
like you gotta unsubscribe from them
and... something else I think.
Bruh I just wanna play with my friends without getting raided by a 300 Wyvern
hah well the 300 wyvern is a seperate issue
I unsubscribed and deleted the mods off my Arks. Well I didn't use any currently so I just deleted them. Restarted steam and went to the game files, I then deleted the folder
I wish I had more to offer than just follow the removal instructions exactly. lots of helpful people here. hopefully someone has a better idea. I'm just the guy who tells you to turn it off and on again
didnt work
didnt work
you need to figure out what keeps putting you into test mode
have you recently installed any new applications or downloaded any drivers
or changed any settings that would effect either
its 2 weeks new and costed a lot of money...
@cobalt frigate I had your problem once. I just redownloaded Ark entirely
Thank you btw, AI.
test mode is activated by using a driver that isn't digitally signed by Microsoft. idk what you did to get it that way, just according to Microsoft that is why is happens
ššš
Takes me 2 days to download ark
For now i just wont use battleye, try out unnofficial ig
frš
Does the destroy wild dinos command not work on pve?
it does
Hmm maybe it takes a long time I guess. Our unclaimed dinos arenāt dying
Those arenāt wild 
They donāt die from the command?
nah
Is there a command that would
A cliff
Literally swim it to the bottom of the ocean
thatās not a command 
Works thoughš
Look at it, cheat destroymytarget
Ah okay yeah thatād work for single targets but weāre in a pickle lol. One of the guys left mating on all night so thereās like 100+ thylos piled up

@crisp kayak
Cryopod the thylas that you want to keep, make sure you get ALL of the ones you want to keep, and then use cheat destroyall thylacoleo_character_bp_c 1
Terminator on their asses
wouldn't the delete all wild ones work too? destroywilddinoclasses "thylacoleo_character_bp_c" 1
Maybe? I don't remember, but they aren't technically wild, so I was going for the other 
Was a command I recall @stiff topaz mentioning in the past
could be losing my marbles though
Probably but when does my brain ever work
You're using cheats as it is. Why not just activate creative and use the destroy tool?
I mean you can, just relating the command the guy was referring too
there's killaoe - possibly
basically any way but what bee said though has potential to end badly
im going to play fjordur with my freind any tips on spawn location?
Yo how do I fix c4 not wanting to keep placing
Vannaland?
Not for dinos from breeding. Unclaimed is its own tribe, destroytribedinos while looking at one is easiest @plain stag
Since the stats donāt change much for wild Gigas is there really any reason to tame a high lvl one?
Melee does change quite a bit
yes, all the stats except melee don't increase much
melee increases by a lot and is very much worth it
Hmm good to know
in fact I'd say low level gigas are worthless apart from breeding, they're basically slightly stronger rexes
Do ice wyvern eggs need heat or cold
they act as normal wyvern eggs so yeah need a lot of heat
Still make good meat runners to feed ya tames with
a waste of time compared to taming a rex
Even bad giga is better for meatruns than rex. Thats jus my opinion tho n i love me a rex
I wouldn't say so, apart from the AOE lower level gigas are just above average rexes
Why is the dinopithecus not losing hunger?
Idk what key I pressed but now everything in my inventory has the item nake over the image, and I cant find the keybinding
Q or G
Thank you it was Q
My buds and I are building a base were not in a tribe, we cleared out one of the old structures and the guy who built it is offline for the night, and we are unable to build in that area, says no building near enemy foundation/structure but theres nothing there, what do we do
structure blocks also go vertical. make sure you got all of their stuff out.
weve checked it wasnt a big structure, could something be under the ground? or a way to disable this in server setting(Its a rented server)
you can try
DestroyTribeStructures
This command destroys all of the structures that belong to the tribe of the thing you are currently looking at.
although that may not be ideal. you can also destroy by tribe id number. but that will destroy all their stuff
im not sure what to look at cause there isnt anything to look at everything is gone
DestroyTribeIdStructures
This command will destroy all structures that belong to the tribe with the specified ID.
You said one of the structures, so I think Al assumed there were more
what if there is no tribe associated with the player
pretty sure your in a tribe even if your not
If you've got commands, you can use cheat fly and then cheat ghost to look around underground
if he never made a tribe it'll be like tribe of human
so "Id" part is just part of the command
thank you guys for the help, I used the ghost command and there were 2 foundations underground
how do I disable ghost
... hum either ghost again or walk
So, I get this error code.
UE4-shootergame game has crashed and will close
And lots of stuff after it, is there any fix?
I sometimes get in, but when I go to collect my loot it just for some reason kicks me out for the same reason again...
Could anyone tell me how Raptor Clause works on Aberration? Iāve been to 2 surface areas and I have not seen him yet.
Hit X on the popup window, and then come back here and do CTRL+V to paste the first 5 lines of the message.
Ok thank you!
Now it just says another account with this player is connected
Yes you'll need to wait 10 minutes or so for the server to realize you're not in it.
I can't send a picture.
Can I dm you it?
I didn't say to send one. I said exit the window, and then use CTRL+V.
Alright.

This?
Have you tried verifying files?
It always says that unfortunately, so probably not that
Alright.
Maybe @stiff topaz knows? And won't hate me for the ping 
It's on the map "Fjordur" if that helps.
Have you got valguero and rag installed?
Does anyone know why my game.ini and gameusersettings.ini wont change in my game it just stays default and the mods wont be set in order?
Nope.
And there was no ice golems there either.
You can either install them, or remove any ice wyverns, chalk golems or ice golems in the area
Or, download those DLC, try load in, see if you still crash. if you do, use a savefile reader like larkator to look for what dinos are in the area
There was 2 raptors and piranhas in the area btw.
That you could see, before you crashed
And our maewings, snow owl and 2 griffins.
the crash is your client trying to handle something that it has no idea what is, like missing files for a dino, item or structure
so you wouldn't have been able to see it to know what is is without crashing, but if a tribemate has brought one in, for example
Alright, I'm installing the Valguero DLC, when you say Rag, do you mean ragnarok?
Yep
Alright.
Does anyone know how to up the limit of Taxidermies and egg incubators? What would it be under? Thanks š
Does anyone know why my game.ini and gameusersettings.ini wont change in my game it just stays default and the mods wont be set in order?
so anyone got a fix or is just my game that dumb to recognize its own files?
Are you editing while the game is open?
nope
What path are the files on?
\Steam\steamapps\common\ARK
Steam\steamapps\common\ARK\ShooterGame\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor
Looks fine
forgot the second part sry
Np
What headers are you putting things under?
Like, give an example of a config line and header
[/script/shootergame.shootergamemode]
For both, or just game.ini? Have you checked if the lines you're adding already exist?
I mean i can send you the links to the game.ini and gameusersetting.ini
files
RIght, yeah might be easier at this point. Dms opened
Does anyone know how to up the limit of Taxidermies and egg incubators? What would it be under? Thanks š
3 egg incubators in 1 area [cant remember how big the area is]
Yeah but how would I change it in my settings that we can have more? š¤ thanks š
i dont know if you can
but if u have a dino with a platform saddle you can put 3 on their while out of range and bring it to where you need it
same with rafts
but u will need a seperate gas gene for all
anyone have [U] Stop following all coimpletely break on them since the last patch? both my ocs the tames still foloow me, defult reset doesn't work, remap doesn't work
i have been getting could not retrive address for days please help
all im tryna do is play with my freinds
what platform are you on and what platform are they on
How do I get my queen bees to come out of their hives?
What spawn in zone ark the island has the most/good amount of resources?
destroy it
@polar sandal all I gotta do is demolish the hives?
when you destroy a beehive a queen will come out
Ok. Tbh, for some reason I thought I needed to do something different.
is the hive yours or wild?
Are Therizinos immune to fire or resist it?
because herbivores take less fire damages
So they arenāt immune? That was my question lol
not immune
62.5% fire damage reduction from what i found in net, not sure how correct it is
Theyāre neither
Herbivores only have damage reduction to the fireballs, not the actual fire itself
I am trying to play with a friend on non-dedicated and it's not showing up for him. I've had this problem a year ago as well but I just ignored it. What can I do?
Join via friends list
It worked, thank you
Huge Problem, one of my buddies just got Ark and downloaded Fjordur to play with us. and when he loads in there is no terrain just water and dinos bobbing on the water. anyway to fix this?
I'd make sure that fjordur actually downloaded, and that he got the official version, not mod version
he downloaded it from steam
both would be downloaded from steam
oh we are verifying that rn
how can i change what account logs into ark on my laptop?
it keeps trying to log in with my main account
sign out of the xbox app and sign into your other account. sometimes there are other apps that will also need to be switched (xbox gamebar and some others)
how can i get my ark save data from my world on my pc to my laptop so i can run a server of it?
@brazen robinsorry for the ping but do u have any clue?
is the world singleplayer?
i guess,
used to host is as a non dedicated server but i wanna host it as a dedicated server
so i installed ark on my laptop to run it as a ded server
but i cant figure out how to copy the same data over
unfortunately you can't anymore. they moved the SP/non-dedi saves and encrypted them. so they can be used for cloud saves.
... so ur telling me im doing all this for nothing?
if i boot up the world as singleplayer, would that work?
i found a ''ragnaroksavedarks'' folder on my pc but i cant find it on my laptop
if that helps
have you loaded a dedicated session on the PC before? yours might've still made the save files
on my main pc, i tried it once and then noticed u couldnt play on it aswell
so, in theory, if i run a dedicated server on my laptop to make the file path and such, and run one on my main pc to get the save data updated could i then move it over without any problems?
dedicated servers and SP/non-dedi use different saves.
you'd have to move them to the others folder but on win10, they aren't compatible.
I'm gonna see if you can disable the fake "cluster" that win10 uses again.
cause i just wanna play together with my friend, without having the tether issue all the time....
but we also dont wanna restart
so, another question...
does the settings u change in general/advanced affect dedicated servers?
yeah, can also edit ini which also effects both.
anyone that understands the whole bosses thing and the levels can help me out in private?
How do people transfer wyverns into a official pve
I've seen people flying them on the island
They went to a map that has wyverns and transferred via obelisk or transmitter, or they traded for some.
I thought transferd data is disabled on official
Only on certain clusters.
Im on switch
how can i make a new survivor if i have a existing survivor?
Die and make a new one
@molten falcon
The ARK Switch official Discord can be found here: https://discord.gg/Q5E9F3bVfC
ARK Switch players will always be welcome in this discord too!
also how do i enable admin mode as a player on my server?
i gave myself admin and i did ''enablecheats pass 123'' but it doesnt work
Do the bosses have a random level in Ragnarok Arena? Prolly gonna do Alpha soon which is lvl 90 but I was confused since wiki says the base HP of Manticore is 160k and then +48k per extra level. I assumed itād just be lvl 90 tho
Remove the word password
wait how does this work.... my ark on my laptop just closed for some reason and im still on the server?
is there a way to check why ark closed?
cause if its just gonna keep crashing then its gonna be incredibly annoying
ark isn't supposed to close randomly. can your laptop play ark normally?
it can ''run'' it
i can play on it but its like low fps
i just lowered the settings, they were all on epic... thats even higher then my pc's settings are lmao
and now my laptop turned into a jet engine
as in ''enablecheats''?
Enablecheats 123
yeah i tried that but it doesnt work
ok so it works but i just cant get into creative mode, anyone know why?
Cheat gcm
ark closed again on my laptop, any idea why?
Why the fuck are my dinos not listening to my whistle all whistles, they're not on ignore.
There just stubborn
Do you have a certain tame group enabled? I do that sometimes
after putting it on low settings its still happening, is there any way to check crash logs for w10?
I don't know
I've never tried to look for them.
if there is someplace it saves them, its not the same place as the steam version (in the saved folder)
its so annoying cause we restarting basicly cause the server decides to wipe everything except player data
do u think it could have to do something with me putting some settings at like 8 while 5 is the max for most settings?
then again, ark on my main pc has closed out of nowhere aswell a few times today
or maybe me copying the server settings from my pc over?
there are only a few settings that can cause a crash, dino count would be the only one in the menu I can think of 
depending on your PC specs it could just be having trouble with the rates tho.
im thinking maybe its trying to spawn a loot drop with over the limit and keeps crashing
to do any boss on alpha i need first finish all other levels or i can skip straight to hardest?
after lowering the settings it still crashed
Does Alpha Manticore have armor/resistance ? Iām reading that it has 160k health and my main Therizino does like 80k per hit. Surely I canāt two tap the boss?
after resetting the server entirely it still didnt fix it, im assuming its a hardware issue at this point
Dose anyone know how to fix failed to install map mode?
@polar sandal so I destroyed one of my bee hives, and apparently I lost my queen bee.
Suggestions?
Hello guys, I got the game a while ago while it was free on Epic, and want to start playing with my friend now. When i host a non-dedicated server, he cant join it. It appears fine, but it shows a connection timeout error every time. I tried joining his server as well, but nothing works. Any help?
no metal or crystal is spawning back for me im on singleplayer and i broke crystal a while ago at the volcano on the island and its not spawning back and i have it set to 0.2
set the resources to spawn as fast as they can and disable hibernation.
singleplayer has a bug where sometimes nodes (if they haven't respawned yet) when you leave will get removed/have an insane respawn timer for them.
is the hibernation option in advanced settings
its a launch option.
right click ark on steam, properties, general, the bottom text box type -PreventHibernation
so should i set respawn timer to like 0.01
yeah
Any suggestions for finding lots of Basils on Rag? Iām struggling
Iāve read between blue obelisk and swamp but Iāve only seen a couple
if it was your hive you coulda just picked it back up I think
if you were just trying to move it
I want to put my bee in a cryopod so it doesn't eat all my rare flowers.
some say once placed they don't always have a bee come out if destroyed. possibly a bug, the only real way to to cryopod one immediately after taming
I just defeated beyla and got the beyla artifact, what do I use it for?
its a tribute item for the broodmother boss on fjordur.
ok
U cant pick up the beehive after 30s from placing it down like other structures
oof.
you can destroy it and that'll give a bee back (don't try it on aberration, the bee just despawns there)
yeah. he did. apparently they won't always give a bee in return.
sounds like a bug, should probably report it
think it's been around since 2018ish from what I've seen. but yeah sure. might make them feel better
can't expect much when bees are still foreign on ab
while the fucking desert titan isn't
desert titan doesn't count as a flyer
and was added after.
bees were already there and counts as a flyer (I believe
)
wait, can I ride a bee ?
dimorphs are shoulder pets none of them count as flyers š its ark logic
bees aren't exactly any bigger
and that isn't my point
they have the power to change it and haven't since ab's release
and the desert titan, a very obvious flier, is still allowed
are the astros allowed on ab?
weird 
Astros work in gen1 no flier though, I stopped looking for logic in this game long ago xD
Also 99% you canāt use em on Ab, I tested it when it worked on Gen1
astro whale without flying. just... flopping along on abberation
Do saddles only add armor or do they add damage too?
armor, except andrew (I think thats the only one) adds damage to its gun
tropeo and astrodelphis too, for their gun things
astro does? was not aware of that.
do baby mantis eat spoiled meat?
I think so
adults do right? mantis shouldn't have special food.
does shadowmain fall under technicality ?
tbh I don't remember if that does make them do more damage but their "saddles" are weird
Yep and they even eat spoiled meat before raw meat, making it a super convenient raise if you have other carnivores around too lol
their saddle is just tied to their level, shouldn't do anything.
I had two the same level and their saddles weren't the same.
thought it was like a breeding thing
the armor should be the same, the tier is mostly random
For some reason, I don't get a pick up option in the wheel menu of my bee hives. I can't even pick them up with the S+ multitool. What's the deal with that?
ye. I guess I ment tier
while I was breeding my boss manes, they had anything from ramshackle to ascendant. all the same level (besides the mutated male)
counts as a structure. default can't pickup after 30s
which is why when you said you didn't get your bee back after destroying it I felt bad but like... that's all there is really
But I can't pick it up with the multitool.
idk anything about that. I like my ark flavored vanilla
since you are using S+, I suggest the S+ Domesticated Bee Hive. doesn't need a queen so easier to deal with.
*I think it does anyway, not really sure
if an ascendant weapon says 633.1% damage is that paired with your melee damage?
If you have melee damaged it's on top of that
i am running a singleplayer with a hand full of mods on fjordur. something is changing the colour of wild dinos. is there anyway to find which mod or what is causing this?
Do you have the winter wonderland event on your server
how do i check. also singleplayer
Because if you have the event on the wild dinos color can change
How can i see active events?
In the main screen
place down a cooking pot, if thereās a holiday tab in its inventory you have the event enabled.
Good idea
you mean the winter wonderland thingo?
No where you change your settings of your single player
when i get in ill check the cooking pot
just a sec
would a gacha claus be a good indication?
Lol yeah, itās the Christmas event causing the colors then
xd
So I'm relatively new to actually trying to fight bosses and stuff (normally I get around mid game and get bored) but I'm actually trying now and I'm trying to breed a Rex army. Any suggestions on what kind of stats I should be looking for? (As in wild stats, no manually assigned levels)
This is singleplayer for reference. But like how many levels (I have awesome spyglass to better scout the stats) or how much HP and melee percentage
are drops still messed up in unofficial?
If you play on 150 max level every state you need should be 40+
Uhh I'd have to check what max is but I know I turned that difficulty slider all the way up cus I was told that's how I get high levels
Yes so 40 plus is what your need in desire stats
After a dino tamed
I'm looking for a good army to take on king titan on Extinction since it didn't go too well when I tried with just an ice titan or with all three titans. So the help is greatly appreciated
(Stupid things wouldn't move on their own)
Use gigas
See I thought so too but I had a friend swearing up and down Rexes were better
Do tamed female wyverns produce wyvern milk?
Iirc they don't, has to be wild
The Rex won't even last a quarter of the boss fight even with a 100 rex
Good to know. In that case, I'll just finish up my current generation of Rexes and go back to breeding gigas
But rex can do most other boss fight except the dragon@wraith beacon
is there anyway to keep event but disable the dino colours?
But if I have access to gigas, is there a reason to use Rexes over them for those other fights?
I really appreciate the help/advice btw
not simply that would require a massive amount of ini code, or a mod... and even then I'm not sure that the event would just overwrite it
You cannot bring a giga in the boss fight except for the Titan
Ahhh ok
eh Gigas can only be used on a very select few boss arenas. like.. I think just se then the mini bosses on some maps
bottom line they can't "use" boss teleport terminals
Gigas can be grappled into some bossfights unless they fixed all that
I know the extinction titan terminals teleported my gigas with me but maybe that's just cus it's still an open world arena
What about with a cryopod or modded equivalent?
tbh I've not done a playthrough on either but yeah it's either scortched or extinction, whichever one dosent actually teleport you to a boss arena. probably that one, you sound like you'd know.
nah. cryopods don't work in boss arenas
Ah ok, I've never tried
idk about mods. too many. but in general, nah
they go clink clink errrrrrr cannot deploy here
I love the typed out sound effects lol
Best imitation of the cryopod
For what it's worth, I haven't tried on SE but on EXT, the terminals teleport you to a set location in the overworld to serve as the arena. (Except king titan whose arena is literally right beside the terminal)
Should I aim for similar stats with the gigas btw or should I go for something else
Up here
I guess I'm fried tonight. I don't get it. but I can say that rexes and Gigas have very different stats. idk if that's what you were asking but... that's... what I'ma say at this time lol
I'm just trying to know what stats and levels I should go for for my gigas now lol
our Gigas had like 350 base attack before mutations and levels. and I think that was pretty good. usually when I say a number someone comes in and is like "rofl 350? noob. ours are 475" or something so...
idk. I think 350 attack was good
just don't put points into health. it's like... so bad
Yeah... I learned that the hard way
try and find a good base one with high HP and attack... which.... I guess is what you always want for every dino so
high oxygen. aquatic giga.
My understanding was it was cus they got nerfed after taming cus they were too OP
Why does that sound so terrifying
chea.
just say if you take your bred giga against a wild giga your gonna get that booty kicked
I'm just imagining now a giga swimming after me faster than I can and it's terrifying
sit under a bridge for 30m and just when they think it's safe -bubble bubble glub glub-
Rofl
CAN someone please help me my single player resetted all my progress is there any way i can get it back someone please
Does anyone know of a way to acces server crash logs on windows 10?
Depends on your bred giga's melee, around 500% will be enough for a wild one, maybe even lesser
Day 5 of trying to fix a crash
(I can't play into my singleplayer server.)
Please help me, i use the website geforce to play Ark.
The crash txt says something about lostisland idk
Copy paste the 1st 4-5 rows of the crash logs here, someone here might have a look at it
gigas are definitely better
he probably got a low ass level giga
low level gigas are just slightly stronger rexes
but very few things can beat the damage output of a giga
For some reason i cannot copy and paste the crash logs
Maybe because i play on geforce
it should auto copy
But i do have a picture of it
that's just the version, nothing to do with lost island itself
I've tried it before it doesn't
I checked with him, and his issue was he said they backfired on him, their rage meter or whatever was his problem
ah
I tried deleting lost island dlc before š
yeah they'll rage in a hit or 2, or just die from KT
but they'll do decent damage before they do die
Also, unrelated but, one of the modded maps I tried to play on always refuses to let me. If I try to, the game closes and yells at me to install Battle Eye or whatever it is (regardless of if I have it installed or not or if I start the game with it disabled or not). Any idea what would cause that?
Does anyone know how to fix the UI to actually fit the screen and not overlap the hotbar???
is it fine if i post a dump file here to see if anyone knows whats wong
That almost sounds like a resolution problem? I've never had that issue that I can think of
if someone knows a bit about dedicated servers on windows 10 edition lmk
Resolution is fine just the ui isnt fitting right and is overlapping the hot bar
My thought was if your resolution was different than your monitor resolution that causes things like that in other games
Anyone know why you canāt put carbon in refining forge for prim plus
Bruh you canāt. Wildcard fix your damn game š”
They've pulled support from Prim+, for a while now
Why make a game if they arenāt gonna make it playable
It was playable, and then support stopped because they had other things.
That sucks. But thank you now I know
so now im running the server again and its ran for a good like... 3 hours without closing....
is it maybe something to do when there are players or something?
Can you tame cave dinos? Iām asking because the direbears in the ice cave is apparently a much higher level than usual lol
I think, yes.
Depends on map cave, most cannot be tamed.
ice cave on rag im guessing?
Yes Rag. Max lvl is 150 but I was seeing 290 in the cave
the one with the boss right?
Yes it has ice Queen
i dont think those are tameable
They're not.

does tranq arrows in a crossbow do more torpor than in a bow?
a default crossbow vs a default bow is like ~80% more torpor per arrow from the crossbow
how did i die? (dm me for the video i cant post videos here)
so i cant post imgur links......
wtf
No links, and no circumventing the filters.
its a video
i asked how i died so i need to sent a video of how i died
so question
for a dedicated server, how often does it save/make a backup?
Can fjordhawk carry items to uw base?
Anyone know why if i tame a parasaur its movement speed is 400%?
Not normal, should be 167%
Whats your speed setting on?
Are there any free server hosting that are good
I don't think there are any free server hosting for games. I can't see how that would be a financially viable model, at least for Ark.
its all normal except for player speed, and speed per level invested
Did you increase āDinoTamedAddPerLevelā for speed?
i think so?
my god its so annoying, my ded server keeps just closing after a while if theres players on it
Then yeah that would be the problem, that setting affects the bonus it gets from being tamed. Set it back to 1 and if you want to control the amount per level, edit āDinoTamedPerLevelā
Your pc, you can skip the part on clustering

i got level 120 and unlocked starwing saddle for astro but i still cant ride astro anyone help
Does the Alpha Manticore on Rag have any type of armor?
I am wondering if the damage I do to normal dinos is the same damage Iād do to the manticore
Can anyone help help me find survival of the fittest on Xbox I saw somewhere that it hasnāt been released to consoles but I searched it up and it said it has come out on consoles
The only news I have seen about console is at the end of the trailer, which says early 2023.
So, my Main game and SOTF crashes as soon as i join a Server, Both have been Verified and nothing has changed.
need the crash report to get started.
will babys die when noone claims then?
Yes
Okay ty
You can fill a maewing full of food, turn on nursing, and unclaim it, and it will feed unclaimed babies. Make sure your babies and maewing are fully closed in, so someone can't steal them.

What's better for harvesting large quantities of meat, a dino or my ascendant chainsaw
Cus that chainsaw has put in work
How do you make a chainsaw?
By default I think it's a Scorched Earth thing but I have a mod to make it more available
Oh I donāt got any dlcs thatās why I was asking
probably chainsaw. Gigas and rexes I believe are typically near farmers and I'm pretty sure the chainsaw nearly doubled that
Ah then yeah, I think you need SE for it
I will say my enforcer got a surprising amount of meat itself which surprised me
logging into almost any of the non canon DLC maps also unlock the chainsaw
(if not all of them but I forgot)
But maybe that's just cus my enforcer has melee leveled through the roof
you can also learn it on the maps Ragnarok, Valguero, Crystal Isles, Genesis: Part 2, Lost Island, Fjordur
Oh Iām on the island also my dodo ex is like broken or something who do I ask for help
whatās wrong with it
On the maps it wonāt show me where the resources or the caves wonāt show up
Also, does anyone have any idea why when I try to load one of my modded maps on singleplayer Battleye goes nuts on me? I've tried installing it, uninstalling it, launching the game with it on, launching the game with it disabled, nothing worked
I believe dododex still links to the old fandom wiki which is no longer reliable, use the official wiki instead https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Resource_Map/The_Island
Iām on the app
I know
That's the official wiki now? I swear I thought I remembered the fandom one claiming to be official still
Lol fandom definitely isnāt the official one
Good to know lol
Thank you so much have a good night/day
np
Just curious, what's the distance limit for mating creatures? I have a mod that allows snails to mate, but I want to set them on wander but them from mating.
Can you send me that mod? I could make some use of it
Snails can already mate in vanilla, why would you need a mod?
They can?
Yes

Ok my memory is actually trash then lol
Well it's not exactly an old feature, but it was added this year, so you're good.
It also allows them to eat berries and from food troughs.
Ok now THAT I definitely need
that part would be helpful at least
I'm sick of veggie cakes lol
It's called All you can Eat Snail.
You could neuter the snails if you don't want them to mate
Does it let you tame them with berries too?
And if you have it handy, could you DM me the mod link
Unfortunately the color variety is broken with the normal sized snails, but it doesn't really bother me.
Oh hell yeah, Yoink
Yup.
Good to know for the berry bits, it's annoying feeding cakes
It also adds king-sized speedy snails that you can ride.
I'm not sure about mating distance, I want to say around 5 foundations? Maybe?
Oh on STA it says 8 blocks for servers, 2 blocks for singleplayer
Any other mods you'd recommend? I'm always looking to expand my collection (DM's open so we don't clog the actual help channel)
Can use #unofficial-setup-help for setup help including mods and stuff
I can send you my current server mod list if you want. I'm the same way. Lol!
Yes please, thank you!
The eco mods are good for building, Dino storage for easy breeding, castles and keeps has some amazing structures, ark additions are pretty good too
The mind wipe tonic one is really convenient
I have some stuff for breeding but I do also have dino storage. I haven't messed with the breeding bit tho
@red olive yeah, how exactly does dino storage make breeding easier?
I saw it had options in the soul terminal
You can set it to auto pickup hatched/born babies in a certain range, you can change it to imprint babies, you can change it to auto grow babies, you can have it pickup fertilized eggs from dinos in the soul terminal, it's just a lot of QoL.
can i still farm electronics with reaper king alpha mission?
Whatās the best way to get good bps?
depends on the BP. generally speaking though under water crates are useful
valg underwater i heard is a good start
i'd do lava golem. all you need to do is tame a bat and velo and you can farm it every hour
just fly on in with the bat right to the arena (there's a point where you will have to cryo the bat and then toss it back out, but you can immediately toss it back out) and wait for your cryo time to be up, grapple up to the ledge in the arena and toss out your velo (literally any velo will do if you're patient enough), and just pound at the golem. i'd bring a rifle of some kind to make sure you can hit the golem if it bugs out for agro and your velo can't hit it. but all the good crates are gotten at the back or by killing the boss, and the only things you'll need to kill are maybe onycs because everything else you can kite/pick-up into lava. i usually can pop in first day on a fresh tame high level desmo and velo and get a shotgun bp
How do i enable automation on the soul terminal in the gportal server? I don't know how to get to the file to paste in my settings.
So⦠just accidentally discovered you can fly by while holding an Ankylo and it will collect metal. Any other resources it will do that to? Hopefully obsidian ?
I think it's just metal modes
Shoot alright. Good enough though
It will only autoharvest up to half of its weight
Had a feeling there was something like that. I noticed it would quit hitting so I had to drop stone often
Hopefully in Ark 2 they implement filters for what resources you donāt want to gather I think thatād be cool. So if I want metal I can choose to not collect flint or stone
doeds will auto harvest stone, and beavers will auto harvest wood!
under the same logic
unfortunately without a tribemate, you're gonna have to manually go around to each rock once overweight, or load off metal into your argy/quetz so the anky can autoharvest again
Ooh thank you for the tips thatās really good info especially with the beaver lol so I can just fly through a forest
are you playing solo or on a server?
Small server. Thereās 5 of us
yeah, then i'd recommend coordinating with tribemates to go farming. without a stryder you kinda need two people unless you're getting something light weight like thatch, fiber, or pearls
Have a tribe mate on the anky/ deodic and you can exceed the tames weight limit , all you would need to focus on would be the flyers weight
That can be done solo too
solo would have to get off and ride the anky/doed, or use the auto-harvest and only get half weight.
Ya the first is how it is normally done
Just use argy with high weight to carry it around
yeah, I've done it that way before. works pretty much just as good if you learn how to drop them correctly 
I tamed a snow owl on Fjordur and im looking through the engrams and cant find snow owl saddles, how do i make snow owl saddle?
Use ext filter
ext filter?
top right, unclick the island. then it'll show all engrams.
ah gotcha thank
Extinction
Anyone know if the season pass gives you all the dlcs or no
genesis season pass? no it only gives genesis
anyone know why i have zero full pop servers or like any servers with people in them
Whats an easy way to get veggetables
make a greenhouse
early game, just get a crop plot near water, put some seeds and shit in it and connect it to an irrigation system and you're done
I mean to get the first vegetables bc i have no luck with them
seeds? you'll get plenty using a berry gatherer
just run around getting berries and eventually you'll get the crop seeds too
I believe pegomastax is especially good at seed gathering but it really isn't required
Okay
when you tame a dino ar ethe stats from wild to tame random or will its highest wild still be its highest tamed?
the extra levels are randomly assigned but a higher wild stat in that level means its more likely to be high when tamed
because it was 1am on Christmas morning? idk
I have a question, its more on the Non dedicated server creation side. Basically me and my friend are trying to start up a game and paly on a non dedicated server and its not loading. The server is modded.
how long have you waited and whats the modlist
Anyone know why is my baby desmodus food is decreasing?
... because it takes food to live?
I have put the baby in the maewing already
And a lot of raw meat cooked meat and bloodpacks
it'll eat when it needs to
i found that baby desmodus will eat whole fridge and still be hungry idk if its bug or server bug
i just give it 100 meat and leave it be
Hello guys
Im having a sudden issue with the game launching and it just decides to crash every time i try to play it even though it was all normal yesterday
I verified the files and it validated them and acquired 2 of them but it still didnt fix anything
What do i do then?
(Also i can provide a screenshot of the error message that popped up)
Okay Thankss
Thank you for your advice sir
Cant send the image but this was the message that popped up:

its saying something about lost island'
that might be the problem
I did play that map yesterday but it was doing perfectly fine without errors
that's just the version name, it has nothing to do with lost island
I mean it might, but it's not necessary

Alright thank you ill see if it works
paints/dyes dont come in the colors i want, is there no way to color objects with console commands? all i see is the dino recoloring
some time ago i started getting timeouts and i have to restart the entire game every time i change servers, it happens in sotf too but other games are ok its just ark that has problems .. anyone know what might be the cause?
-test
it hasnt worked for the past week now so i dont think thats the problem
perhaps looking for a private server with people who play when you do.
overall between all platforms there's usually about 20,000-50,000 people online according to tracker sites.
Hi there, I have a question. I've been playing ARK for a while now but never paid attention to the purpose of ARK. I've only been collecting and fighting.
I'm now collecting all explorer notes and I don't understand how I can get a check mark on a dino dosier. Can someone explain to me how I can get a check mark and what it means?
do you play on a privat server
sometimes! however I'm on Xbox.
I suppose overall I'm not sure. however I can say that for it to count towards the achievement you need the note, and to actually tame one. the check mark may... or may not have something to do with that. maybe someone has a better answer
Thanks anyway, I'll wait to see if anyone else knows.
tame the dino
thanks
hey I got one right 
did anyone get GM help lately? I was promised a reimbursement over 2 weeks ago, my ticket is "solved", but nothing happened
heh i know how to make the dyes, but those dont have a blue-enough blue ^^;
my windows ten ark wont stop freezing when i play
Guys I'm needing some help I've been on a few servers that I've been able to place more than 3 egg incubators down under what setting can I enable this? (Nitrado/beacom) thanks and merry Christmas
Extinction engrams can be learnt in fjord
could someone help me with server problems
possibly! describe your issue and cross your fingers
no command I see to color structures. closest I see is "givecolors" which will give you one of every color in the game. idk if that will result in more variations or not
ended up finding it I think
IgnoreLimitMaxStructuresInRangeTypeFlag=True
so when i open ark i go to join servers i wait for the servers to load up and there are around zero servers with anyone in them
what region are you in, and what type of servers are you searching.
there's .... many many unofficial servers. many of which are private servers for friends or just... dead ones. try searching for official sessions you may come across more populated ones
or if it's a unofficial your after try the recruitment section for your platform
Try official
We bought the genesis pass on ark, but for some reason it says it's not installed? Does anyone know why?
Nvm Figured it out I hadn't downloaded it.
Happened to me if ur on xbox do this
Go to the game press the (ā) button on ur controller then
Press (A) on manag- app then select gen 1&2 and the thing u want
There u go only if u haven't bought it or it should be thereš
so my ark on my virtual machine instantly crashes when starting, anyone know why
its nto on windows?
u mean me or someone else?
you the vm is not a windows? idk
the vm is running windows 10, i had 8gb ram allocated just made it 10gb to see if that was the problem
it seems as if that was potentialy the issue
dont think anyone supposedly knows why my ark dedicated server isnt working on my laptop?
it starts up works fine, when my friend and i connect its fine aswell
but after a while it just closes the game and i cant figure out why...
is it something to do with the server trying to save by any chance?
the world gets reverted, but our characters do not
If cant use extinction can also unlock it on gen2
fandom's not official since april when we moved onto wiki.gg. if the old wiki says official anywhere, send me or @uncut kite a DM and we'll try to handle that.
i think auto save is crashing my server, any way to fix?
im having troubles adding fjordhawk spawns to the island, is there anyone who can help?
@vale sand I would ask that in #unofficial-setup-help. Better answered there.
Does dino food consumption rate affect their health recovery?
Like, less eating = less healingĀæ
I don't believe so
Would that also be the place for me to ask about my game crashing cus if battle eye
The only eating that affects health regen in my knowledge is force feeding carnivores
Can there be more than one giga or carcha per map? I tamed one, will more spawn?
There can be several gigas per map
And Carcha's?
Is 100k % dmg on a Therizino normal? Or does the server I play on have busted settings?
Definitely busted settings
Any amount per map
Alr ty
Awe darn okay. Makes sense though because Iām doing 80k damage and Alpha Manticore supposedly has 160k and I was like hmm I feel like Iām dealing too much damage
Idk if the boss has a lot of armor though or not
It has 75% damage reduction, so yeah thats insane
Iām doing 80k to normal Dinos. Not sure what Iād do to the manticore but I guess 75% of 80k then
Dang 75% is wild

can u build in ratholes on classic pvp servers?
Are cryos a thing?
When's the next arkpoc wipe?
Hello can someone please help? I have a server thru g-portal, and it's on and recognized in steam favorites but it's not showing on the join screen in ark itself
i've played the server multiple times and had this issue once before and someone in here helped me but i dont remember how
Did you change the session filter in ark to "favorites"?
yes. its always on that. i've been playing ark for over a year
Never hurts to ask. Try removing it from your steam favorites and then re-add it?
yeah understood. i did that. didn't work
Are all of the filters correct? Map, mode?
i just have it set to all. It's always been like that and it always shows up. I only have 2 servers I play on
Tried restarting the server and reloading everything? Or joining through the steam list and seeing if it adds back to the favorites?
yes and yes.
Other than that I do not know. I've never had it not pop up after all those. Sorry. Someone else still may know though, I'll bring this one back down just in case.
appreciated. if someone knows something it'd be nice if they pinged me. ima keep trying some things
is the 24hr timer for mindwipes still a thing on smalltribes??
i believes its the same for all official servers
hey im new and im just trying to make a insta level 25x easy craft on fjourdour and its gonna be prim plus doesnt anyone known a thing abt coding?
The in-game server list only shows around 5000 servers at any one time.
There are typically over 25,000 ARK servers online at any given time. The servers shown in-game are chosen randomly and based on other unknown factors. Your server may show up sometimes, and not others
prim plus hasn't worked since like 2016 if that changes anything for you
Well you can't do prim plus. The last mod map that has prim plus support is crystal isle
If you do Fjordur, drops won't work, dinos won't spawn
It will just be players, nothing else
some days that sounds... just fine
Fair
But I rather be able to get from the otherside of the man quick
Not walk there
"it's day 22 of my journey to the red spire"
All I see is grass
oh
well how do i change the x
i dmed u
you'll get more help if you keep the conversation here. if your on Xbox I suggest renting a server from nitrado and just starting at the top and working your way down the settings page.
your asking how to change about half of the values on a server. I'd recommend getting some basic knowledge on how to run a server and you'll be able to answer most of your questions on your own. not to mention if you plan to have a server your gonna need to know some stuff anyways
Hey when do u bobs start to cryo your tames which part of bob life do u start to use cryopods?
im tryna log into a server i usually play on but it says my steam account is connected to another server
Did your game crashed b4?
nah i only just got on
Maybe wait few more minutes b4 try to join again, i heard of cases like your account got hijacked by some cheater or hacker. Hopefully it's not the case
ive tried restarting my game and stuff, also i have steam 2fa so i dont think thats the issue
should i reset all my passwords just in case?
Spoofer don't hijacked your steam, only your ark
Try write a ticket support
will do
As soon as humanly possible. Right now, with raptor claus, if you donāt already have some, stock up. On multiple characters.
as a true bob,
whenever I get cryos (or, since I'm using mods, soul balls)
can i still write a ticket to wild card if im on unoficial?
Yeah cause this is account case not server cases
Are you able to log in other server?
i havent tried
should i make a taming raft or a normal tame trap
It depends what you need it for and where
wanna get a thyla but all i have is a raptor and a pt both are around 100ish in levels
im level 64 btw*
What map? I mean a Raft doesnāt make that much sense for a Thyla. Just search a high level one and build a drop-trap or smth nearby
the island
And try to tame smth better first. A pt or at least a carno xd
if i can find a 120+ then yes
but i did see some allos nearby
Eh what difficulty do you play on?
10
10?
or whatever the highest is
What is your max dino level
180?
Then itās 6
forgive me if im dumb lol
No issue haha. Island is kinda bad for taming though
i think the allos are low cuz they sneaked up on me and my pt and after bleed and a few hits i was still above half health (my pt had 378hp then+ few hits from each allo)
Are rewards from achievements tied to the character you completed them on or your account?
What is the difference between an unofficial and official server?
Can u build in ratholes in classic pvp servers?
account
official is just that, official servers run by wildcard
unofficial are usually run by individuals and, as the name says, they're unofficial
main difference - unofficials can have mods (on steam) and different rates
officials might have different rates but in general they're the same, and they don't have any mods
you can transfer between all officials of a type, but you can only transfer in a single unofficial cluster usually
hey, ive been playing ark with 2 friends for about a week and realized the colors of the dinos started getting abit too wild. When i watch vids about ark then the dinos usually arent that colorful... is there a setting which i didnt find yet?
@lost glade do you have any mods?
not that i know, my friend made the server. im assuming i would need to add the mod too for it to work? if so then we dont
What do I do if one of my dinos is unresponsive
He doesn't move on aggressive, wandering, or attack my target
He listens to commands but just stands in place
it's the christmas event
might be stuck, try cryoing and uncryoing him
so the dinos will spawn with normal colors after that again?
yeah
Any way without creative
I'm a bit broke
no idea
i see, thanks
but really just spawn a cryopod in, then throw it away when you're done
assuming you're on singleplayer
but hoenstly, take advantage of the events, they can be very helpful for getting pretty looking dinos in the future; getting colours is a real pain with regular mutations
so tame all the good looking colours you see
doesn't have to be a good looking dino, but just a colour in a region that you like
Is it normal that my unofficial server isnt working? It's not letting us join and when we join it bugs and kicks us out.
I don't think that's what you would call "normal"
My house is missing
Whereās my house
Wait a minute
What if the ark IS my house
And I just lost one room?

do you know why this might be happening
nope
You are the server owner?
Should I play on smalls or unofficial as a nooby duo
unofficial I'd say
but as unmodded as you can get
yes
dedi or non dedi?
Best to contact server hoster
heb ik gedaan nu is het wachten
I'm playing Primal fear and having troubles with producing crops. I have been sitting over 30min with a fruitling crop and haven't gotten 1 rockarrot
Make a green house
I'm not in that stage yet.
But I have crop growth on 6x
I have it on 6x too, but I believe it doesn't affect the crop production, only the stages up to fruitlind
So there are no settings to increase the production rate of the fruitlings ?
I don't think so, no
damn, okay. Guess I got no other choice then to just sit and wait
is there a way to turn on damage numbers and names shown on an offical server?
ddang ty
guys i need help my engrams are locked by a bug and i dont know how to fix it
@sick pumice have you tried closing the game and restarting
like completely closing, not just minimizing or whatever it is steam lets you do
restarted my pc
do you have any mods installed?
yea i do but is broken still with mods
