[tropic meteor]

define don’t work, what happens when you try

[frigid fog]

Are you spanish?

[tropic meteor]

nope

[frigid fog]

Un the complements there are some Maps like extinción and more but when i try to play the Maps It says that the DLC aren't download and says me to go to the Play store to download it, but in the Play store where the download/buy button should be, It isn't

[plain stag]

Look for season pass

[frigid fog]

In the complements theres the season pass

[plain stag]

Yes, you need to purchase that in order to buy Extinction. It comes with Scorched Earth, Aberration, and Extinction.

[frigid fog]

But i can't play any map

[plain stag]

Did you buy it?

[frigid fog]

Yes

[plain stag]

Is it downloaded?

[gusty garnet]

When breeding high male with low female

Do I have to have cloned females

[somber haven]

I tried signing up for the Ark forums but it's been a day and I haven't gotten the registration email

[rough cradle]

Do i need to be within render distance for my dinos to be pooping unfertilized eggs? Or will they poop em eggs out even nobody is around them?

[molten falcon]

I'm not sure, my bronto layed an egg but I don't remember if i was in render distance I just remember getting back from a taming session

you might have to

[rough cradle]

Thx, time for science

[molten falcon]

Good luck man🫡

[frigid fog]

I can't download it

[frank mortar]

Do beavers create new lodges if you destroy one or do I need to get the beavers to respawn?

[wide agate]

can someone explain why after i joined my friends non dedicated session and pulled out some dinosaurs from obelisk inside cryopods that they got reverted to lvl1?

[brazen robin]

its a bug that sometimes happens when transferring dinos between non-dedis/singleplayers. should make sure only the host transfers dinos.

[wide agate]

ah :DDD super cool

ty

[brazen robin]

I'm not 100% but not using cryopods might make it happen less (or might be more can't remember)

[wide agate]

hm aight thank you although that bug is kinda dumb ngl

[fallen birch]

Is it a good idea to try and steal deino eggs with a lvl 210 pt?

[brazen robin]

yeah, just drag the deinos off a cliff or away from the nest when you grab them.

[wide agate]

i mean if you have the weight and deinos arent around the nest it should be a good idea

[fallen birch]

Can I drop a creature to bait em?

[brazen robin]

it'd die pretty soon and I think egg aggro overrides it.

[fallen birch]

Like just long enough for me to grab eggs

[brazen robin]

probably then. can even have them passive flee to get further away

[boreal drum]

What is this arb blueprint thingy

some say it then only costs 1 gunpowder and some say it only is for it to craft more than 1k

[modern drift]

The beavers make more if the lodge is destroyed, but don't refill existing ones.

Basically take the wood out too.

[finite tinsel]

Ticket for problem don’t work on website.

[modern drift]

@tidal urchin this channels probably more suited to your question, but if it's just an audio bug you could relog.

If it's not eardrums or a mammoth drum I can't think what it could be.

[tidal urchin]

hey im not a bob. i have over 3k hours in this game. we did figure it out though its pretty funny

"ok we figure it out. apparently there's an "air drums" emote which i never knew about, and the game played the audio when my friend didn't even have the emote unlocked"

[modern drift]

Well, that's odd. Ark I guess. And this channel isn't just for bobs.

[plain stag]

Channel name is the original default character, does not mean you have to be new for help.

[red silo]

Is there a way to make it so flashlight attachments don't turn off every time I open my map?

[tidal urchin]

apparently my game crashes when i go through the portal/gateway/railway on aberration

that's pretty awesome. might have to verify files for that i think

[tidal urchin]

ok my game just crashed 3 times in a row

[hazy citrus]

hello is there any mod to like decreas material weight by n times? n being a parameter manually selected

[runic gazelle]

Most stack mods can do that, you just have to config it in the files.

[hazy citrus]

thank you

[near blade]

bruh

I wanna play ark but i dont know how to do much like mate, mutations, breed, build bases, get certain dinos, build traps, ect.

[rotund leaf]

How do I rollback a single player server?

[errant tree]

Do Wild Dino’s despawn a pego stole my argy in a pod and I was following it over some water when it disappeared no bag in the water or anywhere

[olive bobcat]

Is anyone having drop issues again?

I've restarted my cluster and drops are not spawning in the right items a couple of drops are but the rest not?

[near blade]

how do I make kible

[stuck salmon]

I advise looking at dododex for help they show all the different kibbles and how to make them

[errant tree]

There’s a few different recipes depending on the egg best bet is just to google and dododex should be the first link

[near blade]

No like what is the crafting bench I need

[molten falcon]

no colision behind nodes after a patch so now you can just walk trought the mesh and now the nodes lost all moviments can someone report it for me?

[near blade]

also for some reason, I cant see what im missing for crafting recipies

[wise oriole]

which ocean creatures can destroy metal?

and if any, can destroy tek?

[stuck salmon]

YouTube is great for this i advise looking at channels like Raasclark ark map survival guides & ark survival evolved tips or pterafier * ark survival handbook, go from ark new to Ark pro 2022 & ark tutorials*

[plain stag]

Press q or g while in your inventory

[stuck salmon]

You need a cooking pot or an industrial cooker

[stuck salmon]

None can destroy tek from what iv seen however the Leedsichthys can destroy metal

[neon zealot]

I cannot type in certain numbers into my Admin bar. 18, 36, 75, any idea why I can't type them?

It's making my life a little bit more annoying

[brazen robin]

if you are on xbox/win10 it could be the filter acting up I know 0 has some issues.

[neon zealot]

And 10 I guess?

[neon zealot]

the filter is always acting up on console, it only ever gets worse 🤷

[brazen robin]

yeah, heard its any with a 0. I never had any issues tho so its not universal.

[neon zealot]

well is there any fix?

[brazen robin]

not really just gotta use slightly different numbers I assume.

the xbox filter just isn't working correctly for ark.

[neon zealot]

okay, thanks for your help

[terse fjord]

Anyone else having a crash on login?

Already running integrity check...

[molten falcon]

anyone got a tip on how to survive better on the island?

or even just heads-ups to help prepare for some things

so i can prepare in advance

[terse fjord]

Hmm... 3 files failed. More than the usual 2 😛

[molten falcon]

im level 29 i think

[brazen robin]

keep everything that you find

[terse fjord]

Alright. Guess that's the answer for any kind of fatal crash at startup. Run validation

[molten falcon]

oky

anyone else? :>

[hazy citrus]

so there is a mod that allows you to build something that automatically recovers your items when you die. is there such a mod for dinos too?

[dense yarrow]

im also having it...when i open server list some line 3921 error pops up and crashes game,how'd you fix it?

[leaden spruce]

awsome dino trackers

[hazy citrus]

thank you kind person

[terse fjord]

Run the file integrity check.

[dense yarrow]

thx ill give it a try

[molten falcon]

what does a meso do?

[covert pecan]

is having max speed stat better or worse for the most part. i googled it a bunch and everything is from years ago so idk if its all outdated but they all said speed and stamina are the only 2 that matter

for pve

[terse fjord]

I think it depends how much you'll be on foot to take advantage of the speed. I still get at least 115% usually. On Gen 2, I constantly think of increasing it for doing r-seed runs and supply drops, but that map is unstable enough that I worry about it crashing if I get too close to large bases...

[covert pecan]

only thing that annoys me is being overweight from literally anything so ill redo it and put more into weight ig

[mighty star]

Hey guys got a little problem with the S+ Harvest, i don't really manage to make him work... It says it needs a dermis but i don't have the Extinction DLC (playing on The Island) so i am wondering if this is the problem... I tried to summon an human dermis but i can't put it on him

[ember plank]

Are shadowmanes immune to the radiation in abb?

[terse fjord]

I'm at 132 on my main. He has 400hp, 300oxy, 600wt, 116.5% move, 200% craft and 40 fort (fjordur character and live near the ocean so like to have a little extra oxy to survive disconnects)

[mighty star]

And one more question, how do you set the chest for things like harvester/aggregator ?

[terse fjord]

That was for gacha ele dust speedup

I found I couldn't just walk away from the gachas while producing, so I just dealt with it on the spot and that kept me from needing the focal chili or whatever it is

Even with just one gacha, I just sit around with it. They're a fun idle clicker thing to me

For the dust gachas, I just used raw metal with a mining drill 😛

3x300 stacks of raw metal would last about 25 minutes. With 600 weight and the drill I could carry enough to fill two at a time

And yeah, I know about the tek pants trick. I was just on a map with no easy element so got stingy

Yeah, I got a few igs for that. Plant Y seeds weren't bad and I had a lot of them in my yard so the theriz had fun autogathering

[covert pecan]

The max level isn't 100? Damn I am only at 80 so I guess I still got a ton left to fix it I thought I was almost out

[terse fjord]

Max level is 190 I think. You need it for Mjollinir

[placid cedar]

205 now with ascension from manticore

[terse fjord]

Awesome, good to know

[exotic basin]

can someone help me anytime i ride my dino i cant do anything it wont move but i can attack

[terse fjord]

Overweight Antoeknee?

[placid cedar]

If u done the boss before on that character it should have the +15 max levels available, can check the implant

[exotic basin]

i dont think so

[covert pecan]

Alright thanks for the tips I'll finish leveling up in that case

[indigo badger]

Someone an idea why the thermal vision of my snow owl is only black and white instead of colours? I did already reset the game resolution/settings to default but it didnt help at all

[terse fjord]

The colors for snow owl vision is usually for mobs/hostiles

I have about 45 runes left to collect on Fjordur... I'm putting it off because I know I'll finish that goal and want to move again

155/200 runes

[indigo badger]

Yes but everything including dinos is just black and white /o\ I really dont know which setting i couldve changed to achieve this xD

[placid cedar]

Not sure about the one on fjord, but i tested the tek suit in swamp cave on island and it doesnt protect u from gas

[fringe rover]

It does, it just needs to be powered

[placid cedar]

Mine was powered when i tested it

[real elm]

hey so i'm getting an 'invalid number of texture coordinates' error when i try to launch the game

anyone know why?

[terse fjord]

Have you done a file integrity check yet?

[real elm]

oh god not again

it'll take like 5 hours to redownload the game

[terse fjord]

Today's patch seems to have broken something in the ini files, and those aren't checked by patcher so...

[real elm]

sigh i'll be back when it breaks again tomorrow i guess

so if i recheck the files it'll fix it or will it just break again tomorrow

[terse fjord]

I had a crash on first login post patch, ran that check and it found the third file and I've been online since

[real elm]

it said it was an issue with lost island, which i don't even have installed T_T

[terse fjord]

Hmm... I'd hate to suggest installing that might fix issues...

I know many maps have cross dependencies with others, but normally those are included with the main maps.

[real elm]

like i don't physically have the space for lost island T_T

[terse fjord]

That could also cause issues... windows likes keeping at least 10% of a hard drive free

[plain stag]

The crash message saying lost island, is just the build name. Not the map.

[real elm]

i have a good 15% free space it isn't that

[terse fjord]

Ah, that's good news then

[real elm]

okay that's good to know

[plain stag]

Verifying files usually fixes it, but you'd likely need to share the crash message.

[real elm]

where do i post it?

i can't upload pictures here

[plain stag]

CTRL+V you can paste the first 5 lines here.

[real elm]

ah, i just took a screenshot

rip, hold on lemme find it. I assume the last crash is logged?

[plain stag]

Yep

[real elm]

is it under Saved\Logs?

nvm found it i'm dumb

this what u wanted?

[plain stag]

Have you tried verifying or reinstalling any map you're currently playing on?

[terse fjord]

That's probably the file for the Lost Island tames's animation....

[real elm]

i'm just letting steam verify the whole game at this point 😭

does...... does it have a different tame animation?

[terse fjord]

Got Sinos, Dinopithecus or... what's the other one?

[real elm]

i know i said i had masochistic tendencies with games, but i meant with playing them not setting them up

[plain stag]

Verifying will more than likely fix it, if you're not on LI though or using and assets from LI, it wouldn't make sense for that.

[terse fjord]

Skeletalmesh is usually all the animations for creatures from a space.

[real elm]

yeah i didn't even get into the game, it broke while loading the title screen

[terse fjord]

Yeah, part of the initial background file load.... Primalgame something or other

[plain stag]

It won't be LI if they aren't even using it or have it installed. LI is just the build name.

[real elm]

yeah my knoweldge on game dev is limited but i thought it seemed fishy

[terse fjord]

File integrity check probably 99% fixes that one

[real elm]

they named a whole build after the map tho? i feel like that'd be confusing

[terse fjord]

It's modular

[real elm]

makes sense

[terse fjord]

So you can see and use the creatures from other maps even if you don't have them installed or even owned

[real elm]

ah, right, cheats exist. forgot about those 💀

[terse fjord]

Or trading with others. I had stryders and exomeks before owning gen 2

[real elm]

welp, imma go shower while i wait the 9 hours for this thing to reinstall. even with ethernet the connection is bad

tbh i haven't even gotten to the point of trading yet

[terse fjord]

It shouldn't be a full reinstall. It just checks files and downloads whatever doesn't match signatures

[real elm]

yeah well it's still going over 200gb of data 💀

anyways, imma go shower, pray it finishes while i'm in there

[terse fjord]

👍

[spark kelp]

anyone else having timeout problems connecting to unofficial servers?

[hardy thistle]

yea

[finite finch]

Does anyone know how to fix ark not loading, I get to the start screen, click, and it gets stuck at loading

[brazen robin]

win10?

try signing out of your account and signing into another one or don't sign in until it asks.

[finite finch]

I did

I'm going to bed so imma redownload and check tomorrow

[regal rover]

i did the same and still can't get it to run

[heady stream]

my game is constantly saying that its updating and installing mods and won't let me play how do i fix this

[molten falcon]

um can you spawn specific sized fish before I actually tame a shadowmane I want to try in singleplayer with inf stats and stuff

[regal rover]

do we have access to an tech or support guy

[slate minnow]

Mod updates take time sometimes, leave it for ~15 mins

[regal rover]

i have tried many ways for a few hours how

it times out

[slate minnow]

Server connection?

To a non dedicated I assume?

[regal rover]

yes

[slate minnow]

Non dedicated is so bugged that it ain’t work half the time

Just try again later

[merry charm]

why my message get deleted?

[slate minnow]

It’s supported so little there’s no official guidelines

[slate minnow]

#patch-notes @merry charm

[merry charm]

Sorry i can Read that im Colour blind can you explain it to me without using the letters from Blue and Red as i can see them

[slate minnow]

There are no reds and blues, it’s in black & white

[dapper glen]

what should my offset be for fordur so lvl 150 dinos spawn

im using nitrado

[slate minnow]

5.0

[lethal zodiac]

i think my singleplayer world is stuck in inf heatwave what do i do?

the heatwave icon is gone but its still functioning as one and its been like 20mins from when i logged on not including the time i spent in the heatwave before i got off

[slate minnow]

Log out and log back in

[wraith beacon]

Is there a way to skip the steam menu? The one that's like "Play ARK:..., Play ARK: ... No BattlEye, Launch ARK (DirectX 10, Launch Ark with NVIDIA Ansel" etc

[slate minnow]

Ye just make a desktop shortcut and click that

Instead of launching via steam

[wraith beacon]

Wait really? It's that easy?

[slate minnow]

Ye 💀

Launches it in default mode always

[lethal zodiac]

somehow worked 💀
ty

[wraith beacon]

I specifically want it to launch with no BattlEye and the other settings I put in the Steam properties (cus some mods don't like BattlEye very much)

Do I just copy the launch options into the shortcut?

[slate minnow]

When creating shortcut, select that launch option

[wraith beacon]

Shortcut had no options for any of that, and the shortcut itself is just steam://rungameid/346110

[slate minnow]

What exactly are u using that doesn’t like battleye?

[wraith beacon]

The Volcano map I play on sometimes has given me no shortage of problems involving it

Plus, I only play on singleplayer or private servers anyway so I don't need BattlEye running in the background

[slate minnow]

Oh one guy was having issues with Volcano yesterday

Maybe it has something to do with that

Yea then I guess your only way is to open Steam everytime and do the same

[wraith beacon]

Maybe Steam won't throw a fit if I just run the exe directly >.>

Some games I recall it did but it's been a while

[craggy ravine]

Hey guys, quick question. on official servers, is object collision on or off?

PVE if that matters

[slate minnow]

On

[craggy ravine]

thanks

[wraith beacon]

I need help figuring out why my game is crashing but I can't send the screenshot with the information or paste the information into a text file. What should I do?

[plain stag]

CTRL+V to paste it here. Just the first 5 lines or so.

[slate minnow]

Volcano has been bugged since yesterday based on what I am hearing

They claim there is no new update so might be some WC update fucked it up

Not unlikely, has happened before

Come to think of it, idk why it would be reading anything from F:\ when I don't even have an F:\ drive

[slate minnow]

One guy had similar issue yesterday

I told him to clean reinstall Volcano

[wraith beacon]

I'm not even playing on that map right now

I'm trying to play Fjordur

I load into the game for a minute and then it crashes

[slate minnow]

Try removing all mods and loading in

[wraith beacon]

That would completely break my save

[slate minnow]

Make a copy of ur save

in steamapps/common/ARK/shootergame/savedarkslocal

[wraith beacon]

Troubleshooting would be so much easier if the game didn't take well over 15 minutes to load (I don't wanna stop the load to disable the mods for fear of breaking something else)

I just noticed that it only seems to crash when I try to move my own character. But yeah I'll disable mods and see what happens

Do I need Saved\FjordurSavedArksLocal or Saved\SavedArksLocal and something in there

[slate minnow]

Copy the whole FjordurSavedArksLocal

[wraith beacon]

Ok

[quartz lichen]

i'm currently having the same issue as @wraith beacon, i'm trying to load any server - it crashes while loading the server selection and once when it managed to let me select a server, it crashed before loading me in

[wraith beacon]

Ok with all mods disabled I loaded in fine. Short of binary searching my way through is there another method I might use to see what specifically is causing the problem?

[zenith aspen]

anyone know how to fix like the glitchy character head

[lethal zodiac]

explain

[wraith beacon]

Well I'm binary searching my way through my mods now so wish me luck

[slate minnow]

Yea it’s the only way

[flint summit]

where do u find that

[wraith beacon]

Right click it in Steam, go to Properties, in the General section, look for Launch Options and paste -PreventHibernation in that field

One issue I'm seeing while searching my mods is that one of them has its ID changing somehow. Going from 024119790 to 1289 but neither one of those seem to map to anything in the Steam workshop

Well technically the first maps to something called Spiral Knights but it's a whole other game it looks like

The list in GameUserSettings.ini is in order right? Later entries to the bottom of the list?

[flint summit]

Thank you so much it worked

[flint summit]

Thank you

[tropic meteor]

np

[wraith beacon]

No problem

[wraith beacon]

Well I found my problem mod I think and it sucks cus it's one of the ones I really don't wanna lose

My No Durability Armor sets mod is crashing me when I jump or try to fly

Is there a way to downgrade by a version since this update seems to be what broke it?

[wraith beacon]

I found a way to downgrade, let's just hope it doesn't take forever so I can get back to playing

[hazy citrus]

so

basic kibble and simple kibble.
if a dino is tamed with basic kibble can i feed it simple kibble and it will work the same or better?

[placid cedar]

Same

[hazy citrus]

same question about simple kibble and exceptional

[hazy citrus]

ok thank you

[hazy citrus]

what about if a dino is tamed with simple and i feed it basic

[placid cedar]

Worse

[hazy citrus]

i see thank you

[quick lark]

Whats happening when i get a dc or get killed during a boss fight? Is there a way i can go back to the boss area?

[charred vale]

Single player?

[quick lark]

Nope on a official server

It not happend but im curious since i get dc a lot and bc of that died most times

[charred vale]

On server it's depends if you solo the boss and dc or died, you lost everything. But if you got mates with you in the arena dc you can reconnect but not if you died

[quick lark]

Yep i play solo. Ok, so without me in the boss area my tames will not fight and there is no way i can get back to them. What a gamble 😅

[charred vale]

That's the case you tames will all instantly dies together once your dead in arena

[quick lark]

Ouff

[charred vale]

Just can hope for the best

[quick lark]

Yeah looks like. Thanks for your quick respond. Have a nice day

[charred vale]

You too

[lethal zodiac]

any way smoothly fill a gap between two floors/ceilings other than 2 triangles that just start zfighting with each other?

[calm thistle]

this is the shape of the layout i was trying to explain if further clarification was needed ( I and - are to help differentiate the different floor pieces )

[red olive]

First step is always validate, check graphics cards. If that doesn't work you can post the first few li es of the error and maybe someone here can help

[plain stag]

@lethal zodiac feel free to use #building-discussions and #building-screenshots for better clarification when building, if needed.

[lethal zodiac]

no img perms in this server

[polar sandal]

copy the text not a screenshot

[lethal zodiac]

wait you can actually post imgs in some places here?
thanks for the tip

[polar sandal]

uh oh

[calm thistle]

i share a screen shot on building svreenshot

[red olive]

Only specific types in specific places lol

[plain stag]

Raqkaaq was talking about the other user.

[lethal zodiac]

still thats really helpful 😭

[red olive]

That's not the place for error messages.

[plain stag]

For building, yes.

[plain stag]

CTRL+V to paste the crash message here. Only need the first 5-8 lines.

[calm thistle]

ok

[polar sandal]

I feel a giant wall of text incoming

[red olive]

There also is a way to find the error messages stored in the fame files, but I don't recall exactly where it is

[calm thistle]

LowLevelFatalError

[polar sandal]

eh are you able to load into a server with the same map

think the buffer thing points to corrupt save

[calm thistle]

iam playing it on single player

not on any server

[polar sandal]

right. I'm asking if you can load into a server. with the same map though

[calm thistle]

ya

[red olive]

Try loading into a public one. Just a random fjordur one I am guessing

[polar sandal]

Humm I don't wanna say it's a corrupt save. but it looks like a corrupt save

I'd wait for a second opinion before doing anything drastic

[calm thistle]

ok

[red olive]

I don't count as a second opinion, I am terrible with error messages lol

[plain stag]

Verify files before trying anything else.

[lethal zodiac]

do charca and gigas spawn on SE? dont know the maps spawns well

[red olive]

They shouldn't Spawn there. If they do I would bet there is a mod or Spawn config

[polar sandal]

thats kind of sad the charca seems so badass lol

Get one from a different map, they are kind of really op for scorched though

[polar sandal]

are any of your files on a external storage ?

[lethal zodiac]

yeah i dont want to bring anything in until i beat the map

kind of feels like cheating

[red olive]

I get that

I do the same in my sp runs

[polar sandal]

try deleting this file then verifying. if not then... 😬

[File:F:\build\Lostisland Engine\Source\Runtime\Core\Private\HAL\FileM anagerGeneric.cpp]

[calm thistle]

I search this file on ark path but I can't find it

[calm thistle]

No I have ssd and hhd

[polar sandal]

which is ark on

you don't have filemanagergeneric.cpp? that's the file that's erroring.

[calm thistle]

Hhd because my ssd is only 240 gb and I install Windows in it

[polar sandal]

it has a zero buffer so it thinks it's empty but it says it's there

the timeout is much shorter for a file load between servers than an initial load.) The Fix: Move your Ark game files to a faster form of storage - If it's on a hard drive (HDD), move it to a Solid State Drive (SSD)

[calm thistle]

I can't because I don't have space in ssd

Before this error it work fine on my hhd

And on my hhd i have other game too I like gta 5 it work great

[polar sandal]

try and find that file again

[red olive]

The hhd shouldn't be causing the error, it's likely the file they are saying

[molten falcon]

anyone got grove streets switch discord for ark? if so dm me

[calm thistle]

Now my house power cut so iam using discord in phone once my power back I re search that file

[polar sandal]

ye. I was just trying to find alternatives

okie dokie

I just copied what you sent. original it had a space in it. I don't believe it should

[calm thistle]

Thanks for helping. I will update you about this when my pc on

[polar sandal]

okie dokie. hopefully it is actually helpful

[calm thistle]

If you want a photo of that error I sent you?

[polar sandal]

nah. appreciate it but usually the first few lines is plenty. the rest is just domino's falling over

[calm thistle]

Ok

[hazy citrus]

hello can i send my character, items and dinos from a map to another in singleplayer? i mean the question is is there any map I can't transfer things from/ to?

also whats an easier map genesis 2 or lost island

[polar sandal]

you can transfer pretty much anything anywhere in single player using the upload from an ob, with the exception of like raw element, flier to abberation and... tribute items? probably some other things too idk. gen2 is probably the easiest map in the sense the drops there are extreemly op. like you can get a entire Tek base from drops. and you start with armor that lets you fly. however lost island probably has easier boss encounters for map completion

[hazy citrus]

i see thank you

what happenes if i take off a platfom saddle with stuff built on it from a dino like a bronto or a quetz

[charred vale]

they will get destroyed

[ashen canopy]

Can the dev's remove the cave tether in non-dedicated in the Ue5 update. Im not playing ark much because of it

[native osprey]

[red silo]

So when buildings are put down resources will no longer respawn near them, how far near is determined by the settings, I've been told however there is a command that can be run on servers to undo this and allow resources to respawn in an area where buildings are/were, what is this command and can it be used in single player?

[wraith bronze]

wait so when people are looking for better flak armor like the colored ones

high durablity = better?

[modern drift]

You can set the structure resource prevention to a very small number (0.01) and they won't block nodes anymore.

[modern drift]

Higher durability is usually preferred over high armour as armour often breaks before you die.

[calm thistle]

Bro i tried to find that file. But it not on my ark file and i again verifying ark from steam but i don't found the file.

[calm thistle]

You have any other method

[calm thistle]

I have one question too. If I fully reinstalled ark. Then I have any opinion to get my old world and dino. Any method to take save file of my old world and dino

[copper flare]

how do i kill a alpha surface reaper king??

[modern drift]

I'd bring a bunch of spinos or Megalosaurus.

[copper flare]

i brought 4 megalosaurus and they died

fully imprinted 1s

[modern drift]

Then you could try sniping it from a ledge with your best shotgun.

Stupid question but was it in charge light?

[copper flare]

yes i had a featherlight and it was on but i was doing barely any damage

[copper flare]

my best shotgun has good damage but it barely has any durabilty....

[modern drift]

If you've got transfers you could try a mana.

They're very strong.

[copper flare]

im bad at controling them tho lol

[modern drift]

You can just sit somewhere and shoot the beam.

[copper flare]

the light pet needs to be in range tho doesnt it?

[modern drift]

Yes. You'd need to be close with a large range light pet or position the reaper at a charge node.

[red silo]

I'm talking about resetting areas already affected

[red olive]

They can't remove the tether no. If two players get too far apart on a nondedicated server it could crash the hosts pc

[winter vector]

[molten falcon]

anyway to reduce ark file size
i saw on reddit that you can compress it but apparently you have to uncompress it and update otherwise it wont update?

[warped musk]

is there anyone who knows who to fix fatal error/lowlevelfatalerror crashes?

nothing ive done has seemed to fix the issue

[warped musk]

Crash in runnable thread RHIThread

i get this error along with a lowlevelfatalerror

[molten falcon]

I got the same problem when launching singleplayer sometimes, dm me if you find a solution please

[steady epoch]

probably a dumb question.. is it possible to get the wyvern to have a checkmark indicating its been tamed? ive hatched them all but i guess that doesnt count ^^;

[wooden egret]

Try maewing it. Its how i got the reaper checked as cant actually tame those

[steady epoch]

when i get to wherever maewings are (and if i remember) ill try that, thanks ^^;

[wooden egret]

Can find em on gen2. U play pve,pvp? Official,unofficial?

[steady epoch]

ehh solo so i guess pve unofficial

and i dont have gen, sad 😦

[wooden egret]

Ah ok if was pve official id be able to come to u after work tomo n bring u a maewing.

[steady epoch]

i dont have multiplayer access anyways, thanks tho 😛

[wooden egret]

So u on single player?

[steady epoch]

yep

[wooden egret]

May be worth seein if theres a code to spawn a maewing in tho not sure if need the map to be able to do so. I think they on fjordur too i could be wrong.

[steady epoch]

ohp good idea i completely forgot im able to spawn in a lot of the genesis stuff oddly oO;

[wooden egret]

That may solve ya problem. Tho some animals cant be maewinged but wyv deffo can

[steady epoch]

woo i got a 'milkglider' as the game bp calls it ^^;;

[molten falcon]

Anny dev for the love of Jesus can fix rockwell nodes they are gliched and lost all animations and ALSO that after a patch seems some rockwell node walls lost the colision and you can just walk trought it as well exo mek and rexes and tames can just walk in and get stuck lol its a place to be safe as nothing even the spikes dont go there on the mesh but the tames or exo mek that enter can get stuck

Hey are there any easier ways to manage mods than the ingame system? It's kinda hard to remember the order of mods

And also the fact that if i remove my top level mod i have to remove all the others

[tough seal]

If I buy the game, can I play the official servers without any subscription to live gold / game pass?

[red olive]

There is no subscription to play official if you own the game

[shut plover]

has anyone had any problems where they can't sit on the chairs during the ice fishin mission on gen 1?

[neat reef]

can anyone help me with a crashing issue

[livid oriole]

have you verified you files?

[neat reef]

what does that mean

[crystal haven]

redownload lost island

[warped musk]

I tried

Nothing is working at this point

[livid oriole]

go into the steam library, right click on ark, go to properties, and find verfiy files

[warped musk]

I have uninstalled and reinstalled everything

i am also getting this error msg

[neat reef]

hey

thats what im getting rn

exact same

[warped musk]

yeah

google has been no use, ive tried everything

[neat reef]

havent been able to play for two days

[warped musk]

same

ours started around the same time

whack

[neat reef]

does deleting lost island work?

im not even playing that map nor have data on it so im lost

ive just been playing fjordur

[pure prairie]

the crash has nothing to do with lost island

[warped musk]

ive been playing a modded map

[pure prairie]

what mods do you have running?

[warped musk]

hbu @neat reef ?

[pure prairie]

I deleted lost island because it was mid and it frees up 62 gigs

[neat reef]

i just have a stack mod, the hairstyle mod and one other small one

[pure prairie]

any other mods?

[warped musk]

yeha 1 sec

[neat reef]

ive played other modded maps recently

[warped musk]

ill grab a link for a mod pack

[neat reef]

ive been playing volcano and caballus

[pure prairie]

I’ve had crashes like that before but once I removed a certain mod it was fine

[warped musk]

its on a server and my friend isnt crashing like me

ugh

[pure prairie]

well that’s unfortunate

you can dm it to me

[neat reef]

im also using the no cryo cooldown mod

[pure prairie]

I have reason to believe that it might be ultra stacks

[neat reef]

its not ultra stacks

its a diff one

[warped musk]

alright

1 sec

may have found solution

[neat reef]

if you find one pls tell

[warped musk]

okay so, its not the greatest answer, but basically my save files corrupted. i completely removed the "saved" folder from my computer and its working now. if it does end up crashing ill let you know

[neat reef]

how do you do that

[zinc night]

hey so idk if this will help, but I've been dealing with the same issue as yall

its not a mod issue per-say, but something to do with the save I think? but it also does have to do with mods which sounds confusing because it is 🙃

[neat reef]

is there a solution?

[zinc night]

well I disabled all my mods and the save loaded so that's something

not really ideal though 😔

[warped musk]

you will lose all saved progress if its not backed up

if you go my route

[neat reef]

thats fine

[warped musk]

have you tried other ways prompted by google first?

[tropic meteor]

I mean, you probably could’ve just loaded a backup

[warped musk]

i had no backups

:(

[tropic meteor]

The game automatically makes backup files so I find that highly unlikely

[zinc night]

I tried save backups but they didnt work either

[warped musk]

everytime i verified files i had 11K+ files that needed to be restored

[zinc night]

I guess my next move is to see if I can re-enable the mods and load the screwy save

[neat reef]

how long should verifying files take roughly?

[warped musk]

its a big game

prob around 10+ minutes

[tropic meteor]

how much did you break xd

[warped musk]

everything i guess 💀

[tropic meteor]

your crash message looks more like a bad install than a corrupted save but if it works I won’t question it

[zinc night]

I wish I could post a picture of my error here

[red olive]

Copy paste jt

[zinc night]

internet is being spicy rn 😔

I cant copy paste

[warped musk]

thats also what i thought, but uninstalling and reinstallation didnt do anything

ive been searching through google, reddit, steam for anything that would help

for 2 days

[tropic meteor]

You tried fully uninstalling mods and not just hitting the unsubscribe button?

[warped musk]

yeah

[blissful pagoda]

I need help. I play M&K on pc and all of a sudden it thinks I have a controller connected and I can't deactivate it. This is causing me not being able to do stuff.

[tropic meteor]

interesting

[warped musk]

i went into mod folder and deleted all of them

i was lost for so long

[tropic meteor]

it should automatically copy to your clipboard when you close the crash message

[zinc night]

I mean I can, but there's no internet on my pc right now so I can't post

[tropic meteor]

you on your phone rn?

[zinc night]

yeaaah

[tropic meteor]

make a hotspot xd

[zinc night]

pc only connects with ethernet 🙃

[polar sandal]

(x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\ARK\ShooterGame\Saved\Logs

[tropic meteor]

excuse me, it does what now

[zinc night]

my motherboard doesn't have a wifi chip, so I just use an ethernet cable

sorry, jargon translation: I can't connect my pc to wifi wirelessly, so hotspot is a no go

[tropic meteor]

alright, well whenever you can post the crash message ping me and I’ll try and help you out

[zinc night]

tornadoes really do be out here destroying infrastructure 🥲

[raven geyser]

Are spinos or rexes better?

[finite finch]

Does anyone know how to fix ark pc not loading, I press start and it never goes past that

[tropic meteor]

Overall, rexes are better due to having quite a bit higher health

[polar sandal]

who dosent have a wifi card in 2023 lol.

sorry. had to... say something.

[tropic meteor]

Don’t question it xd

[zinc night]

ok through a really dumb and convoluted way, I have gotten the error text

[tropic meteor]

xd

[zinc night]

thats all of it I think

[tropic meteor]

Try using the -preventhibernation launch option

[zinc night]

I did have it on for a mod I had, and got rid of the option and mod thinking it was the problem initially. I'll give it a shot again though

[raven geyser]

Also, just wondering, if you have no life, would it be better to get a low lever tame so you can have it be more specialized, so every single level is towards what you want?

[tropic meteor]

not at all, players can only level a tame up to 88 times

[raven geyser]

Ohh

I see

I did not know that

That probably keeps Dino’s from having insane stats

[brazen robin]

mutations is the main way people specialize dinos. it takes a long time tho (depending on settings)

[zinc night]

this time I got to snapshot 24 before it crashed

[tropic meteor]

progress

have you tried loading a backup

[zinc night]

yes, with no luck

[tropic meteor]

which kind of backup

[zinc night]

right now im going through mods by batch to see what might be causing issues

Backups in the save folder. I don't have any manually saved from before the update

[tropic meteor]

yeah but the numbered backups, the anticorruption backup or the newlaunch backup

[zinc night]

the ones with dates

[tropic meteor]

could try the anticorruption backup

[zinc night]

I'll give that a shot too after I finish batch checking mods. I'll also post the mod giving issues if that's the case

[tropic meteor]

sounds good

[zinc night]

hopefully it's as easy as disabling and re enabling it

[polar sandal]

does it error on a fresh save, or the same map on a official server

think it's looking for a mod that's not there. as in you used a mod on the save that you no longer have

[zinc night]

not on fresh ones which made me think it might be a mod causing issues from going to one version to another because at this point idk
also I'm kinda bored so lol

[sharp geode]

im tryna make a longneck bp and all the materials i need for it wont fit in the smithy do i need to make it at a tek crafting station?

[zinc night]

the anti corruption is .bak do I just change it to .ark?

[polar sandal]

I mean you can but... there's not many ingredients needed. they should certianly fit in a smithy. perhaps take some old items back out

[polar sandal]

ye. make a copy of the back and the original save first tho

[tropic meteor]

nah, you change the entire name to mapname.ark

mapname being whatever map you’re on obviously

[zinc night]

ok giving it a shot
everything is backed up too now

[polar sandal]

Valguero_P_AntiCorruptionBackup.bak

rename the file Valguero_P.ark

example

[polar sandal]

conversation above

[zinc night]

SMALL UPDATE: I might have narrowed to problem down to 4 mods. Gotta do some more checking, but I'll update with what I find

[tropic meteor]

[molten falcon]

hey my friends screen is getting stuck on PrimeGameData_BP is there a way to fix?

when loading world

[zinc night]

I have indeed narrowed the problem to 4 mods

now I get to test them individually and cry if its the one I think it is 🥲

[tropic meteor]

Settings are probably too high

[tropic meteor]

[molten falcon]

ight

[zinc night]

sometimes it just takes a bit for it to load too

[molten falcon]

no it legit wont work he waited 30 minutes at one point to no avail

[zinc night]

oof

[charred vale]

What's his pc spec?

[molten falcon]

he dont know it prebuilt

[charred vale]

Single player or server?

[molten falcon]

non dedicated

mine

[charred vale]

Try load in single player see if it's same problem

[molten falcon]

k

[brave mist]

why can i not join my friend's non dedicated session but another friend can?

[brazen robin]

non-dedi has a lot of issues. try joining another server for a few minutes and then try.

[brave mist]

alright

[molten falcon]

yes same issue

[brave mist]

another non dedicated or just any server?

[charred vale]

was he able to play b4 or this is his 1st seeing this problem?

[brazen robin]

any server. non-dedi has a LOT of network issues.

[brave mist]

ok thanks

[molten falcon]

1st time

been happening for days tho

[charred vale]

there's few things that might be the issue like running on low RAM, running on outdated GPU drivers but its hard to pin point cause he didnt his own PC spec

[molten falcon]

ight

[zinc night]

update: possibly have narrowed it down to 2 mods

[charred vale]

anything else he can try is verify game files and hope this fixed, i assumed he's on steam right?

[zinc night]

I believe I have found the culprit. After I have confirmed, I will let you guys know

GOT IT

after idk how many hours of troubleshooting I got it

it's Marniimods: Wildlife

When my steam comes back online I'll post about it there too

[tropic meteor]

have you done a full uninstall of that mod? Could just be a corrupted install

[brave mist]

so when i join my friends non dedicated, i get past the loading screen but instantly lose connection. do i have to do something like join another server or what?

[zinc night]

No I just deactivated it. The mod itself isnt borked. I can probably re enable it again and it'll be fine, but honestly I don't really need it

so if anyone is having the same problem and has that mod, I'd disable and then re-enable it after initial load

[tropic meteor]

Unsubscribing doesn’t remove all mod files so it probably still won’t work, could do a full uninstall of it then reinstall and see if it’s fixed

[zinc night]

I could, but I'm kinda stoked its working again so I'm gonna be playing for a while lol

[tropic meteor]

fair enough

glad you figured it out

[zinc night]

😎 thank you guys for the emotional support as I slowly dove in and out of troubleshooting insanity

[deft minnow]

wheres the easiest place to find a quetz

[wraith beacon]

What map

If you're on the island, they have a low spawn chance just about anywhere

[slender linden]

they're a rare spawn on every map besides crystal isles and aberration. crystal isles are uncommon spawns. aberration dont spawn at all unless you have a mod that enables them. they're typically anywhere in the sky tbh, its all just luck

[formal frigate]

hello guys my problem is when i join the world a black screen appears what do i do ?

[wraith zodiac]

Like joining a world or when your loaded in?

[feral blade]

Do u get vac ban for ini

[icy hedge]

I dont believe so.

[feral blade]

Only global official ban

I wanna know if i can use my ini on unofficial 😅

[icy hedge]

Aslong as you dont change settings when playing on other servers it should be fine, so using it on single player should be fine and non dedicated but unofficial and official servers may get you banned

[feral blade]

The only people ive seen banned were global bans

Not vac/game bans

Meaning u can still play unofficial just not official

[thorny stone]

How do I get the net launcher on the island

[placid cedar]

Only way is to learn it on maps with that engram available, then u can craft it on island

[thorny stone]

So if I unlock it on genesis 2 then it will be available on the island?

[placid cedar]

For that character that unlock it yes

[thorny stone]

That character?

Am I able to use the same character in each map or something

[placid cedar]

U have to transfer that char to gen2 to learn the net projectile, then transfer it back to island

[thorny stone]

How might I do that

[placid cedar]

Go to any obelisk

Middle of screen has a change server button

[thorny stone]

Is us the button that says upload survivor

Is it*

[placid cedar]

Yes

[thorny stone]

Thank you

[red blaze]

Global bans in ark are both unoffi and offi, I’ve gotten global banned and i had to get another acc

[cyan adder]

Why lol

[untold rock]

So I just transferred back over to gentwo1526, sent out my Rexes, server crashed, it apparently rolled back, get back in, I’ve lost my ownership of my tribe, my stuff is gone, and all my Rexes are gone

am I really screwed?

[red blaze]

the usual, meshing

[frigid fog]

Are there any admin that i can Talk with?

Ok, thanx

[fallen birch]

Ok so um first time getting flak I just realized how heavy it is is there any work around for this?I don't have argents yet so my pts can barely hold anything if I'm wearing flak and it's impossible to grind metal with my anky

[burnt oyster]

Why do people feel the need to say “your new with only one flyer, I’ll help you out and gift you a Dino” then drop a cryo pod on the floor empty and kill you

Like what fun are YOU even getting from doing that. Now I got to restart from the 12th time

[slate minnow]

PvP sucks that way

People are so tired of their own lives that they make others miserable too

[wanton hearth]

does ark have an ending

[charred vale]

Genesis 2 boss is the main ending

[wanton hearth]

cool thank you

[polar sandal]

loot quality scales with dino level? at least this nitrado wiki says so.

[frank mortar]

Grr, do Parasaurs really think ducks are a threat. sigh.

[proud pagoda]

LMAO

[molten falcon]

No, but loot quality does scale with DIFFICULTY level. The higher the difficulty, the higher the dino level, so in a sense kinda yeah

If you want to turn up loot quality dont turn up difficulty turn up the specific setting for it

[polar sandal]

fair. just never realized they were corelated

[molten falcon]

search up difficulty ark wiki and click on the first link it explains the system pretty well

[polar sandal]

appreciate it. already familler with all that however, just had the one question about loot quality being related to dino levels/difficulty however you wanna word it.

[molten falcon]

alr

[molten falcon]

The game is probably loading

If it shows text at the bottom left then its loading the map / mods

wait a bit

[molten falcon]

@faint thicket you can ask here, more appropriate ^^

[soft iron]

Hello ! I play on the official server. I can't open the doors or break any structure. I can't leave my house. I tried to disconnect and reconnect but it doesn't change anything ... Somebody knows why ?

[molten falcon]

@faint thicket is your "egg hatch speed" 0.1x? this setting needs to be above 1x to be faster

[faint thicket]

Okay thanks 😍
what about activating skye when i'm sitting on a dino ? 🙂

[molten falcon]

what is skye? I might be having a brain fart 🤣

[faint thicket]

hehehe 😂
you know it to search and transfer in 😜

It would be easier if I could send a picture 😜

[molten falcon]

yeah, wish we could share screenshots here. Sorry but i still dont understand 😭

[faint thicket]

you know at the top of your human and your dino there is a picture of a cloud but it doesn't work when I sit on a dino 🙂

[molten falcon]

Ohh, is that from S+? the resource pull?

@faint thicket

[faint thicket]

don't know if it's s+ that has it but has mods on it 🙂

[molten falcon]

Can you to put an item into your dino's inventory, clicking on that item so box is highlighted, then try clicking the cloud?

[faint thicket]

they work on my PvP serversthey work on my PvP servers

[molten falcon]

If the above doesn't work, it might be a bug with S+ or a similar mod that allows you to pull resources.

[faint thicket]

no you can search for things and then retrieve what you are looking for you can also do it from all other structures not only from dino but I go up to the cloud and then I can search for metal and then I can see where I have metal

okay because it works when I'm not sitting on a dino

[molten falcon]

yeah, sometimes transferring to dinos you ride can be weird. In the past, i had issues with it not working unless i put an item into my dinos inventory and clicked on it. It's hard to explain without a video

[faint thicket]

yes but I also can't use my human skye when I'm sitting on a dino but I know what you mean but it should be fixed so you don't have to have a thing in your dino 🙂

[molten falcon]

yeah, it's just an issue with whatever mod is adding the pull resources feature sadly 😭

[faint thicket]

yes okay then they just have to live with it 😜

[faint thicket]

but thanks for the help 🙂
but baby mature and baby food are x1 too ? 🙂

[molten falcon]

I suggest increasing mature speed, but you'll need to adjust the other breeding settings to account for that change.

Baby consumption should stay at 1x, otherwise the babies go through food like crazy XD

[faint thicket]

now when I have a x10 server what is the best mature speed to be set to? 🙂

so that was why all my food disappeared so quickly xD

x2 is it fine or ? 🙂

[molten falcon]

let me plug in some settings. Sometimes you need to shorten the imprint time so you can imprint creatures (usuaully because of smaller dinos)

[faint thicket]

shorten? 🙂

[molten falcon]

yeah, imprint timer is default 8 hours. If you put the mature speed to 10x, a bunch of creatures cannot be imprinted because the timer is longer than the time it takes them to mature

[molten falcon]

So:
Baby mature speed: 10x (babies grow up 10x faster)
Imprint amount scale: 2x (every imprint will give you double the imprinting %)
Cuddle interval: 0.25x (imprint every 2 hours instead of 8 hours)
This will allow you to fully imprint all creatures except: dodo,lystrosaurus. archaeopteryx and party dodo(?) assuming you get all the imprints in time.

[faint thicket]

well yes, but my imprint is 1.5

[faint thicket]

if I set Baby mature speed: 10x it took a really long time to grow up

[molten falcon]

what creature?

[livid oriole]

I have mine set to 25

[faint thicket]

all

[faint thicket]

just for deinonychus would take 2-3 days to grow up

in our time

[molten falcon]

Did you hatch it after you changed the settings? If you have a baby growing up then change the settings, it'll grow at the old settings

at 1x Deino takes about 1 day 13hrs.

[faint thicket]

Hatched one now it grows up in 1 full day

[faint thicket]

but when I had it on x10 it gained 1% in an hour :/

[molten falcon]

sounds like it's still using the 0.1x settings. I'd shut down the server, close ASM, reopen ASM and check the breeding settings again.

[faint thicket]

Baby mature speed is running with x1 right now

[molten falcon]

I would change the settings, save the server settings then close and reopen ASM to make sure there's no issues with the server files (it will take a while to save)

[faint thicket]

but if i switch it over to x10 it would take a long time to grow up ?

[molten falcon]

wait

yeah, set the baby mature speed to 10x. increasing that decreases the growth time.

if you hove over the setting it says "higher values decrease the time it takes baby dinos to mature into adults".

[faint thicket]

yes, so it shouldn't be at x10 ? 🙂

[faint thicket]

yes, I have seen that, but it can also be a bit confusing 😂

[faint thicket]

then I think I'll just keep it at x1

[molten falcon]

All you should need to do is set it 10, save ASM, start the server and then hatch a new baby. Hopefully the settings stick.

at work so my responses are slow.

[faint thicket]

I understand it like this with higher values would it take longer to grow up ?

it's perfectly okay, I have patience 😉

[charred vale]

No the higher the value the faster it grow

[faint thicket]

ok i will give it a test 😉

[zinc night]

Dude idk what I did, but ark looks so strange when I boot it up now. I dont know how to explain? It's almost like its running mid graphics settings but they're all set to epic

from one problem to the next lol

[wraith beacon]

I'm not sure what's going on but I left some Ovis breeding for a while and came back to about... 50-ish? Of them all clipped into each other. I got them all moved away but now there's an invisible wall where they were, there's no bodies or unclaimed dinos or anything (I even went into cheat ghost to double check) but I can't walk there. Anyone know what's going on or how to fix it?

[thorny musk]

are you on streamer graphics right now?

[zinc night]

no, I have a 3070
I think I might have fixed it by turning on ambient occlusion or whatever

[thorny musk]

ok

[wraith beacon]

I think it's invisible corpses, cus my desmodus has managed to get thousands of blood packs from the wall so far

[thorny musk]

might be

[wraith beacon]

Either that or I've conjured up an infinite blood spring cus I swear I'm at over 100k packs now

163k so far

Whatever they are, they're extremely annoying

[split trout]

[wraith beacon]

Anyone got any ideas for getting rid of those invisible walls without giving myself carpal tunnel?

[fringe copper]

Yo guys,quick question. Ik that beginners server tend to wipe once every month or so,right? Any idea to know when is next wipe?
I wanna start a lil trip on beginners server for a lil fun but dont wanna waste time if next wipe should be too soon.

[viral zodiac]

i accidentally learned all tek engrams, is there a way to unlearn them?

[brazen robin]

how did you learn them? if it was creative mode then just relog or respawn.

[viral zodiac]

how do i relog?

[brazen robin]

go to the main menu and then back in lol

[viral zodiac]

oh so just rejoin

[brazen robin]

yeah

[viral zodiac]

ok thx

[fringe copper]

Anyone?
Plz?

[brazen robin]

I believe its every 2 months but I could be wrong.

[fringe copper]

Either way,how can i check when i next wipe?
Or at least when previous 1 occured?

[brazen robin]

last wipe was the 30th in december.

sometimes they post when the next wipe is sometimes they don't they didn't this time.

[fringe copper]

Ight.
So next 1 should be in bout a month then?
Hmm...
Wonder if thats enoug time.
Thx.

[covert pecan]

if i enable expert mode on nitrado so i can just add one ini file will all the other mutator settings i made have to be put in the ini file or can i just add the one and keep the rest

[hasty wolf]

For beginner you want to get some mid game tames, Dino’s, and sets of guns, weapons/tools, and armor. Build up a tribe there then transfer

So it should only take about 2 weeks, you can also ask leaving tribes if they’re willing to spare materials

[plain stag]

@foggy bridge use #735196267373920286 to create a lfg, or look in the server advertising channels below that.

[left depot]

What would be the best thing to use to fight the green obelisk boss in the island

[molten falcon]

is there like a good % i should have for gachas to produce the most of x thing they do in my case its element dust but i heard 150 is like best one for max production of items but for gear go all into crafting

[red olive]

I think 167 is for resources, and 267 is for items. Or something like that

[plain silo]

My dodo cant solo a giga how do i fix this

[left depot]

Kill it

[red olive]

You probably changed the damage per tame, or damage per level multipliers an excessive amount lol

[twilit mica]

why does baby wyvern refuses to eat milk, and when i force feed him his food bar goes from 800 to 2000 then back to 800 for no reason

[brazen robin]

let it eat by itself. babies stats grow with them. it'll eat when hungry

[twilit mica]

so the 2700 food stat is actually fake and it's his fully grown stats?

[silver osprey]

Where do I craft net projectile? Can’t find engram in my inventory or smithy

[twilit mica]

and since he's baby he actually has 600 or smtg?

[thick warren]

Yo does genisis have a specific rotation for the lunar biome or is it random every time it changes

[molten falcon]

wdym rotation?

[molten falcon]

Babies have the same stats as when they grow up it just comes out hungry

[thick warren]

So Ike the biome corresponds to drops does it go from blue to purple to red. Or is it random

[molten falcon]

Dont force feed babies the food stat will go down if you force feed it

[molten falcon]

Yes there is a correlation, lemme find the chart for it. I thought u meant gen 1 lol

[twilit mica]

okay okay thanks ! someone helped me out

[thick warren]

Ok bet thanks

[molten falcon]

Thats the broodmother, use **megatheriums **or spinos.
Megatheriums have a bug buff activated upon killing an insect that makes it do 375% damage against insects and 250% against non-insects. They do a shit ton of damage in that arena because the broodmother summons spider minions that megatheriums can kill to get the buff.

Spinos are good because they have a short hydrated buff after touching water that increases its damage by 15%, speed by 20%, and health regen by 25%. Theres water in the arena + spinos have better base stats than megatheriums so they are a good choice aswell
I usually go for megatheriums they do more damage but have less health

You also need high quality saddles for beta and alpha difficulty idk if you need it for gamma

if you have good dinos prolly not for gamma

[left depot]

I have 2 spinos would that work

[placid cedar]

U need 19 with a yuty to buff them

[molten falcon]

^^^100% it would not, you can bring max 20 dinos for it so just bring like as much spinos as you can. Tame high levels and level them into health and melee. Also tame a yutyrannus because their roar buffs your dinos

[left depot]

Ok

[molten falcon]

@thick warren idk if u saw it but i dmd you

[thick warren]

Ok thanks

[warped ibex]

I was play on genesis 2 and left the game to play something else, now when ever I i try to load into genesis 2 I get a pop up and can't load in

this only happens on genesis 2 and not on any other maps(single player)

[brave mist]

why cant i join my friend's non dedi? ive joined a random server for like 30 minutes and tried again but i cant get in.
Is there something i have to do?

[topaz finch]

is there a mod that allows you to build without the need for support pillars? like if i want to build a bridge from one area to another?

[brazen robin]

S+ can. add NoFoundationsRequired=true under [StructuresPlus] in gameusersettings.ini

[topaz finch]

ooh ok, let me see if i can find that file

[brazen robin]

there is a guide here to find it in the pins.

[topaz finch]

so i need the Structures plus mod enabled to be able to have the heading of [StructuresPlus] in gameusersettings.ini

[topaz finch]

i dont see the structuresplus heading?

[molten falcon]

how many shadowmanes for brood mommy

[torpid sable]

So my doedic and castroides have wandering enabled and have nothing in their inventory but they won’t auto harvest. I’ve tried with argy and without, enabling and disabling harvesting, and taking on and off saddle. Any ideas how to fix this? I’m on extinction btw

[gusty garnet]

I just got stego lines with 23 mut on male side 34 on female how can I clean this line

[rigid skiff]

So, I'm trying to host a server and my wife and I can both join, but no one not on our lan can join. I've forwarded all the ports, gave my friends a steam://connect/ link and they were able to join the server and download mods (only have S+ and gravestone mods), but are unable to connect after downloading mods.

Any ideas?

[hasty wolf]

They need to be on the ground

[magic umbra]

Someone is domesticating my dinner!

[brave mist]

why cant i join my friends non dedicated, my other friend can but im the only one who cant and hes had the same problem as me but it worked the last time he tried

it keeps saying "Connection/timedout"

[formal frigate]

can i show you??

[wraith beacon]

I'm not sure what's going on but I left some Ovis breeding for a while and came back to about... 50-ish? Of them all clipped into each other. I got them all moved away but now there's an invisible wall where they were, there's no bodies or unclaimed dinos or anything (I even went into cheat ghost to double check) but I can't walk there. I think it's a bunch of invisible corpses but I don't know how to get rid of them. Anyone got any ideas? My desmodus is the only thing that can even interact with them as far as I can tell and I don't wanna get carpal tunnel clicking for hours then figuring out what to do with my already 200k blood packs

[tropic meteor]

spawn in a ridiculous level rex so it has high melee and it should be able to harvest them all in one hit

[wraith beacon]

Tried a Rex and it can't even hit them

[tropic meteor]

interesting

[crimson fulcrum]

Tried relogging?

[wraith beacon]

I had this issue on Extinction before and it persisted through many relogs

Also tried a raptor and a wyvern but they couldn't hit them either

[tropic meteor]

Ridiculous level desmodus then xd

I assume you’ve also tried leaving render range and coming back right

[wraith beacon]

The desmo is only getting blood and I don't think it's making any accrual progress

[crimson fulcrum]

Sounds like you're getting carpal tunnel then!

[wraith beacon]

;-;

[wraith beacon]

Tried that back on Extinction, to this day that spot still exists on that map despite my base being in the middle of the city and me having killed alpha king titan so I've been all over the place lol

There wouldn't happen to be a console command that could just eliminate the dead bodies would there

Just like every dead body map wide

[tropic meteor]

not that I’m aware of

[brave mist]

anyone?

[wraith beacon]

I found a solution! They were all technically unclaimed dinos and/or corpses. So I grabbed an ovis, unclaimed it, and with a quick DestroyTribeDinos it solved the issue

[crimson fulcrum]

You can do cheat destroytribeiddinos 2000000000 for unclaimed as well without going through the effort of using an unclaimed one specifically.

[wraith beacon]

Good to know

[brazen lichen]

how do I put a elevator in the base tree?

[torpid sable]

Do you mean just in extinction? Because they definitely auto gather while picked up by an argy on other maps I’ve played

[rocky escarp]

Hi, I know there is a release timeline for the arks, but if I wanted to play the STORY chronologically on Singleplayer, what order should I play the story arks in? I started with the Island and I thought scorched earth would be next, but I wanna be sure

[crimson fulcrum]

Island, Scorched, Ab, Extinction, Gen 1, Gen 2 :p

[polar sandal]

Start at the top work your way down.

Or what is it exactly your asking

[brazen lichen]

yeah, i want to make a elevator to get to the tree plataform, but when I try to put it on the plataform it says it needs a foundation

[polar sandal]

Ye either the top or bottom must be attached to a foundational support of some kind

Might need to start at the bottom and eyeball it unless you can find a snap at the top to guide it

[thorny stone]

Is Xbox cross platform with windows/steam

[charred vale]

nope steam is cross only with epic games

[topaz finch]

Is there a YouTube or a tutorial somewhere on how to use the S+ mod? I have it downloaded but have no idea how to use it

[molten falcon]

Go to its mod page, it has info about the mod. Also you really dont need to learn how to use it just put it anywhere in your mods list and play. Its new structures are pretty self explanatory and has helpful descriptions

[topaz finch]

so when i go to make something and i see the s+ sign beside it, what difference is it from the normal version?

[haughty orchid]

Can I increase dino level above 120 in single player, if so how?

[topaz finch]

Max the level of difficulty and you get spawns of 150

[haughty orchid]

not in the main maps

[topaz finch]

Yes. I knly play pve. Increase the difficulty to max and they spawn higher

[haughty orchid]

it is max

single player settings work different the multiplayer settings

[topaz finch]

I dont play multi-player. You asked about single player, thats what I play. I have maxed the difficulty and I get spawns of 150

[molten falcon]

It will tell you in the item description

[fringe rover]

Check the pins

[topaz finch]

Will s+ allow me to build without the need for pillars? Like if I want to build a bridge?

[haughty orchid]

ty 🙏

[fringe rover]

Any and all changes made to that structure
Ie better snap points, possibly new features, etc

[molten falcon]

Uhm kind of i dont build much but s+ will reduce the need for a lot of foundation supports and you can use less pillars

as for not needing pillars idk sry

[topaz finch]

No worries, I saw in q YouTube video the creator built a bridge and it was super cool. So I'd like to do that

[molten falcon]

👍

[normal stag]

Hey so I'm trying to tame a Carcha, he's eating the corpses i bring him but i see no green progress bars. Help?

[wraith beacon]

If you use the override official difficulty ini option you can increase the max wild levels to 300 by setting it to 10

[plain stag]

That's what they were directed to the pinned messages for, has the override config as well as how to find your ini

[wraith beacon]

I missed that message somehow while scrolling through. Oops

[plain stag]

It's all good, I was just letting you know it is there too

[fallen birch]

How many deinonychus to absolutely shred everything expect maybe gigas and charcars

[wraith beacon]

Well I appreciate you letting me know cus I am very blind and miss things a lot lol

Also, what's the difference between regular and augmented kibbles? I have yet to find anywhere that explains that

[polar sandal]

Is that a mobile thing ?

[wraith beacon]

Nope

It's a thing on PC at least

[silver plover]

I can’t repair my asc shotgun, I have more than enough materials and I’m at the fabricator but the button is still greyed out. Help!

[wraith beacon]

Is the fabricator turned on?

Not really sure what that reaction means there

[molten falcon]

this or if you're crafting stuff sometimes the repair button is greyed out until the queue is cleared.

[silver plover]

Thanks

[solemn pewter]

Why do knocked out dinos disappear after i biome teleport of fjordur

[frozen kraken]

lost connection to server error

my friends and i keep getting it

we're trying to join eachother, each tried to host the server. none worked

[wraith beacon]

Still wondering about this btw

[modern drift]

Augmented kibble was basically the beta for the modern kibble system. It functions exactly the same, if it hasn't been removed.

[wraith beacon]

Seems weird cus a lot of mods reveal them and they have different crafting recipes. Like Augmented Extraordinary Kibble looks way easier to craft than regular Extraordinary Kibble

[modern drift]

I'm fairly sure it's just in the files but inaccessible. It used to be available though.

[wraith beacon]

I mean the item is there - I can make it

[modern drift]

Odd.

[wraith beacon]

Like I've got a stack of 32 in my inventory right now

[modern drift]

I was under the impression it was unobtainable but guess not.

[polar sandal]

Augmented kibble was used early days when extinction came out and was the only way to tame some dinos such as snow owls

Augmented kibble is a relic from when the old kibble system was in place to combat egg farms on extinction.

However since the rework they are completely obsolete in any and all ways. Yes they work, but in the same way regular kibble does.

[wraith beacon]

Good to know, thanks!

[polar sandal]

For sure. First I heard of it. Had to look it up

It's mixed reviews on if it still works to "forcefully tame" Thylacoleo though

Sounds like it could go very good or very bad quickly based on results

[wraith beacon]

Since the craft is easier with the resources I have can I assume that extraordinary augmented kibble will work on anything that will eat kibble?

Hey I'm new to the game (started yesterday) is anyone here willing to get on a game with me and help me learn?
My friend was teaching me last night but he's in Australia lol so he's fast asleep right now

[topaz finch]

How do we pickup the fabricator after you've placed it. I want to relocate my base

[plain stag]

Have to enable it in your ini.

AlwaysAllowStructurePickup=True

[topaz finch]

Which ini file?

And do I have to manually write in that code or do I just have to change the value to "True"

[plain stag]

gameusersettings.ini
[ServerSettings]
AlwaysAllowStructurePickup=True

[topaz finch]

Thank you! I'll go check that out now

What about building without pillars? To build a bridge

[plain stag]

You've added S+, correct?

[topaz finch]

I've downloaded the mod and activated it in the game mod list for my single player game

[plain stag]

gameusersettings.ini
[ServerSettings]

Add this ⏬️below the server settings in it's own line at the bottom, like this.

[StructuresPlus]
NoFoundationsRequired=True
RemoveFloorRequirementFromStructurePlacement=True

[topaz finch]

thank you! i just did that, now that my kid woke up, itll have to wait till this evening to see if it worked 🙂

[little kayak]

I have a question about resource gathering...
I have noticed that resources have "health" and when that health reaches 0 the resource disappears/breaks. My question is... what happens when a resource is not fully collected? If a resource reaches 50% health but gets left alone (think: rich metal node)... does the health remain at 50% forever / until destroyed and respawned? Or does it become 100% again after a certain amount of time / render distance reset? I would do my own testing but (a) I can't find anything mod or otherwise that will tell me resource health and (b) the health of resources appears to be random enough that some have extra resources/health and makes valid testing troublesome at best.
Thanks in advance if you know underneath the hood how it works!

[plain stag]

It'll stay at whatever health you stop hitting, I have never noticed it "recharging".

[molten falcon]

thoughts on making a base in herby island?

im south zone 1 right now gonna take a while to get there

[little kayak]

That's what I was figuring. Next question: do we know the maximum value for the Game.ini variable ... ?

ResourceRespawnPeriodMultiplier=
I'm playing with the idea of having "permanent resource depletion" and wondering how high I can take the variable before the game breaks.

...or another variable that could involve turning off resource respawning?

[glad pier]

New patch fuck anything up for anyone else? No servers in my favorites and unable to connect through IP

[plain stag]

Is it an unofficial?

[glad pier]

yea

[plain stag]

Someone said they placed theirs at 100 and it was working fine until an update, but that information is from 2017.

[hot furnace]

I'm playing on ps4 gen 2
I completed a mission then the game crashed when I exited the arena, I logged back in and I was dead ,lost all my stuff and there was no item chache on the mission terminal so all my stuff is gone.
That happened 3 times btw.

[plain stag]

Then you have to wait for unofficial servers to get the patch. It typically takes longer than official, sometimes up to 12-24h.

[glad pier]

Oh rip then

I want to report too

Anny dev for the love of Jesus can fix rockwell nodes they are gliched and lost all animations and ALSO that after a patch seems some rockwell node walls lost the colision and you can just walk trought it as well exo mek and rexes and tames can just walk in and get stuck lol its a place to be safe as nothing even the spikes dont go there on the mesh but the tames or exo mek that enter can get stuck also you can trap the corrupted survivors there and no more will spawn

BC u cant do bug report

[hot furnace]

It says "could not locate"

[polar sandal]

Try a different browser, use desktop mode, or from a PC. Just verified the link, it's working.

[molten falcon]

good base locations for beginners? I'm south 1 btw

Ark is trying to update something and its stuck on Validating - starting download

How do i make it stop downloading

I tried restarting steam and it didnt work

[molten falcon]

Prob updating to break something else in the gen2 boss again

[molten falcon]

🎉 love ark

[wraith root]

Go in ice cave 🙃

[molten falcon]

Annyone can make a bug report for me?

Yeah im sad

[sharp geode]

a few days late but no theres literally not enough space inside the smithy, theres like 13k metal 2.1k wood and a bunch of hide theres literally not enough space inside of it for all of it

[red olive]

You can use a saddled argy to craft smithy stuff

It's probably the easiest way

[charred vale]

Some BP are very expensive to craft there's even some that impossible to craft due to it massive resources requirement, best bet is try craft in tek replicator hope it's fits

[molten falcon]

anyone seen a 150 r reaper in any smalls server

[astral lark]

[plain stag]

Glad to hear!

[red olive]

There is a penguin cave with nothing but penguins

It's not big, but if you look up penguin cave on YouTube you'll probably find it

[plain stag]

20.6, 8.7

[red olive]

For poly though, the dead stuff on the swamp island might be better

[charred vale]

Bee caves, aberration poly plants, dead dino at swamp, karkinos, mantis, penguins....fjordur has it all for organic poly

[molten falcon]

Anny dev for the love of Jesus can fix rockwell nodes they are gliched

[tropic meteor]

Seems like you’re the only one with this issue

[molten falcon]

Are you sure

Can i send you my vid so you can see

[tropic meteor]

considering nobody else has complained about it, probably

nah I’m good

[molten falcon]

Yeah im sorry mesh on the boss and the nodes gliched attacking but invisible isnt that big

To be honest meybe the mesh is broken on the gen2 boss but also im sorry nothing that bad

[tropic meteor]

it is a big issue, I’m just saying nobody else seems to be having that issue

[molten falcon]

Well cause is behind node and no one care about the boss just killing it till someone rex get stuck on the mesh but thats hard to happen jappen with me cause i did thia boss more than 30 times

[tropic meteor]

Only way to increase spoil timer as far as I know is storing it in an achatina

[molten falcon]

Huh i see some people noticed tge noglin possesing bugs lol but i gave up on them a while ago

Also seems they said they "fixed noglin possesing and untaming dinos" but my void wyvern lvl 290 is now wild on a pve sv attacking bases

[tropic meteor]

Can shoot both in shell, but don’t waste your time shooting a doed if it curls up into a ball, has a 90% damage reduction when it does that

I mean, it would make sense if there was a damage reduction but there isn’t for some reason

[rotund leaf]

Could someone tell me how to create a backup save file for my single player server?

[gusty garnet]

Gen vents are 6x damage right

[fossil violet]

Is there a way to batch level swarms (ie push points into attack without individually opening each of my 200+ dodos menus)?

[molten falcon]

Buff dodo melee

[spark salmon]

I have this glitch on my Dlc I bought it and downloaded it and it still says I Don't have it what do I do?

[polar sandal]

You can turn it into soap, if you have a grinder. That's kinda a big ask for some tho

[polar sandal]

For playstation ? Maybe sign out and in to your profile. Not sure.

[spark salmon]

Ok I will try because I Don't Wanna waste 25$ for nothing

[polar sandal]

I feel that

[solemn pewter]

Is leech blood or large honey better for fishing?

[red blaze]

You can use snails(achatena) to store it inside them (they have 90mins instead of 30mins ) or use polymer karkinoses by cloning low lvls and killing them and using chainsaw on them and lastly just farm bee cave on crystal isles when you need polymer

[modern drift]

Honey let's you catch bigger fish.

Though I think leech blood has a better loot multiplier I think.

[solemn pewter]

By how much?

[modern drift]

No idea. I don't fish much.

[solemn pewter]

Well thanks
