[molten falcon]

Idk

I started yesterday

[limpid elk]

I never started

[molten falcon]

Then don’t reply?

Where do I get oil for gasoline in abberation

[limpid elk]

Ima check wiki maps

Wiki in iPhone sucks

[molten falcon]

Il just wait for someone else

What do I do to power my generator in abberation?

[polar sandal]

Early game trilobites or dung beetles

Later game elemental river oil rocks or rad zone

[polar sandal]

Make sure you use gg instead of fandom

[limpid elk]

How I live in snow whitout 999 wolfs try kill me

[molten falcon]

God oil is hard to get on this map early game

[polar sandal]

Ngl. Kinda is

[molten falcon]

Would a sarco be enough for killing all the tril

[polar sandal]

I mean. Anything really

[molten falcon]

Any in fertile lake I’m kinda near that

[molten falcon]

Got a fair amount of oil but 1 thing don’t use a sarco there way to fast so it’s hard to kill and harvest them

Maybe a spino would work but I don’t got a saddle yet

[polar sandal]

Haha fair

[molten falcon]

This dire bear was doing 180 damage does anyone know the round about levek it could be I ran away cause of health before checking level

[keen light]

hey all, is it possible to get grappling hooks/lines on fjordur?

sorry not grappling, zip*

zip lines and hooks

[plain nimbus]

Can someone please help me ? my ark keeps crashing idk what to do man

[lean junco]

it is impossible to estimate the level based on 1 piece of information

[plain nimbus]

Assertion failed: PackageFileTag.CompressedSize == PACKAGE_FILE_TAG_SWAPPED [File:F:\build\LostIsland\Engine\Source\Runtime\Core\Private\Serialization\Archive.cpp] [Line: 348]

VERSION: 358.7

[plain nimbus]

That my problem

can anyone help me please?

[hazy peak]

This is answered in the pins, second from top, entitled How To Fix Crashes 101 -- odds are it's verify files, but if you've tried that and it hasn't worked, do the other steps as outlined.

[deft zodiac]

yes according to the wiki

[molten falcon]

You have been saying that for days

[molten falcon]

Would you say it’s a level worth taming?

[plain nimbus]

I dont say anything on this channel since like 10 months

[fair wave]

i need help plsss

my the island doesn't open up after my brother turned off my pc

i have the error code can i send them anyone?

[plain nimbus]

let me see

[fair wave]

I can’t send it anymore sadly bc I had to turn of my pc can I send it to you tomorrow?

I have messaged you @plain nimbus

[keen light]

Oh I must have missed that. I saw it had the ab tag so I thought it might’ve been ab exclusive

[keen light]

Didn’t he just say it’s impossible to guess the level? If he can’t guess the level he can’t tell you if it’s worth it lmfao

[plush berry]

How do people have net launchers when there not on genesis

[cedar needle]

u can still make the engrams from other islands

[plain stag]

Learn the engram from Fjordur or Lost Island

[plush berry]

So as long as I learn the engram I can use it on all maps

[plain stag]

Yep with that character

[plush berry]

So then u have to transfer my character to another world learn the engram and then come back

[plain stag]

Yes

[lone relic]

if i post a pic of someone's base in a cave would anyone be able to locate it?

[lean junco]

depends on a variety of factors

again, its impossible to tell

[plush berry]

Damn that seems dumb Lmao. 😂 what maps are they available on again

[plush berry]

Hmmmmmm can’t really tell you it could be a variety of factors. What map are you on ?

[plain stag]

Lost Island and Fjordur

[plush berry]

Isn’t it in genesis also ?

Don’t you need Genesis for it

[brazen robin]

gen2, fjordur, and lost have all non-tekgrams. you don't need gen2 for the engrams on lost or fjordur

[plain stag]

Yes it is genesis also but you do not need genesis

[plush berry]

Thanks guys also is the new ark remastered going to force us to buy all dlc again

This seems like a cash grab and a terrible deal

[brazen robin]

you will get all current DLC

[plain stag]

https://survivetheark.com/index.php?/articles.html/community-crunch-368-asa-roadmap-update-asa-comparison-and-more-r2126/

[plush berry]

Ahhh thanks. Are they planning to remove anything ? Or jsut remaster and add new stuff

[brazen robin]

there are a few sunset features like prim+ and splitscreen. can't remember the other one

[plain stag]

Everything is explained in these-

https://survivetheark.com/index.php?/articles.html/community-crunch-355-ark-roadmap-evo-event-and-more-r2075/

https://survivetheark.com/index.php?/articles.html/community-crunch-356-ark-roadmap-update-rhyniognatha-concept-and-more-r2078/

https://survivetheark.com/index.php?/articles.html/community-crunch-368-asa-roadmap-update-asa-comparison-and-more-r2126/

[plush berry]

What’s prim+

[brazen robin]

total conversion for ark that is very buggy.

[plush berry]

As in like it’s going to be buggy when it first comes out

[brazen robin]

what?

[plush berry]

You said it was a conversion that’s buggy

[brazen robin]

sunset means removed feature its not gonna be in ASA

[plush berry]

No no I’m asking what prim+ is lmao

[brazen robin]

its a total conversion for ASE thats very buggy lol

[plush berry]

Right but what does that mean

I have nub brain

[brazen robin]

its primitive plus, its no tek or electricity stuffs. and a bunch of other things are removed/changed.

[plush berry]

Is that going to be a mode or permanent

I just wanna know if they are permanently removing anything

[brazen robin]

its already out and has been out for years, its not supported anymore hence why its buggy

[plush berry]

Wait so then it is a game mode ?

Sry I would read through the articles but I’m about to be in a flight rn lol

[brazen robin]

yes, its currently on ASE. should be base game for xbox/win10 just need to switch in the main menu

[plush berry]

Is ASE out yet

[brazen robin]

ASE is ark survival evolved

[plush berry]

Ye

[brazen robin]

ASA is ark survival ascended

[plush berry]

OHHHH is prim plus for servers only

[brazen robin]

pretty sure it works for singleplayer too could be wrong tho, haven't played it in years. probably has more bugs on singleplayer.

[plain stag]

No. Primitive Plus is just a mode. It is on SP and online. It does not work though.

[plush berry]

Man what’s the fun on servers all of your stuff ends up getting wiped anyways so what’s the point ?

[plush berry]

👍

[plain stag]

Your stuff only gets wiped on specialty or pvp servers. On pve, it is safe as long as you log in and render your content.

[plush berry]

Ahhh ok

So what happens in prim + that isn’t in normal ark besides not having tech

[plain stag]

A lot of other content, like foods, cooking, farming, more metals/ores, structures, weapons, etc.

Though most do not work correctly anymore.

[plush berry]

So it’s basically it’s kinda like a whole new game Lmao

Is it way harder to ?

[plain stag]

Somewhat

Since it doesn't work, has little to no dinos or drops, I'd say it's harder.

[plush berry]

Are there new weapons in it ?

[plain stag]

Yes

[brazen robin]

its definitely harder then current ark even if it worked with all the DLC items and dinos anyway.

[obtuse folio]

Im tryin to tame a 140 shadowmane but it wont fall asleep it just keeps killing things and detecting me when im just in rendering range

[plush berry]

I’m starting to wonder if I made my game prim + because I get shit Dino spawns

What new weapons are there

I mean I can make a sniper lol

[brazen robin]

kill everything nearby it and stay away until it goes to sleep. you can also trap it in a 2x2 (have it teleport inside then net it and unrender it.)

[plain stag]

If you're on singleplayer, it is the singleplayer part having issues with dinos.

[plush berry]

Oh ok. Am I supposed to be able to make a sniper

[plain stag]

In the fabricator

[plush berry]

Sry for being so annoying but what is one weapon you can make in prim+ but not normal ark

[plain stag]

No idea, it's been years. Look on the wiki

[brazen robin]

there is obsidian tools

[plush berry]

Is it basicly so buggy it u playable

Unplayable

[brazen robin]

yes, there are multiple walls that you'd have to use commands to get resources and dinos are basically non-existant.

[plush berry]

Oh lmao

[rich magnet]

How many ovis would a 150 fjordhawk need?

[lean junco]

do it on dododex

Is 80k hp and 3650 attack good with ascendant saddles good enough for alpha dragon?

[naive dust]

Yeah

[lean junco]

its difficulty 20 tho

so take that into consideration

[naive dust]

Oh I don’t know.

I don’t play boosted

[rich magnet]

If I'm asking here it's because dododex has nothing on it

[keen light]

Hey all, is there an in-game command to give me more Engram points? Personally hate that single part of the game, wished ark gave enough Engram points to just unlock everything available per each level as it unlocks (ideally from every map lol)

[naive dust]

There’s a setting that unlocks all engrams available at a level when you reach it. Personally though I found that the mod for it was better for server performance.

But if you’re on single player the performance shouldn’t be affected

[hoary sinew]

I use a mod called Auto Engrams. It gives you all engrams at that level. No more of the notifications for unlocking them either.

[median willow]

Mutated my rexes to 58HP 58Melee, just finished 100% imprinting them. Now how should I level them for alpha Fjordur bosses?

[gloomy yew]

I'm looking here for S+ config stuff: (cant send steam workshop forums link0
How do i make it so you can ALWAYS pick up S+ Structures??

[naive dust]

Replace S+ with Super Structures is the easiest method. That’s a stock feature on SS

[molten falcon]

Abberation

[gloomy yew]

I hear it crashes

[naive dust]

I’ve used it for years and have had no issues.

[gloomy yew]

doesnt s+ add more features and handy stuff like mutators?

[plush berry]

Lol I forgot where I was going with that I’ll tell you if it comes back

[naive dust]

SS has mutator as well

I’ve yet to come across something in S+ that SS doesn’t have

They’re essentially the same mod

[gloomy yew]

fr?

in what way is SS better then S+

i belive u, just tryna be through

[naive dust]

I found it more convenient. I didn’t have to configure ini to use any features I wanted. Only had to configure when I wanted to remove some of the added engrams I felt were to powerful.

Do you still have to craft the tool for S+? The gun that does things like pick up structures?

In SS you always just have that.

You can swap them out and any S+ structures you have will convert automatically if you decide to check it out.

Barring a few at least

[molten falcon]

I’m here

[supple narwhal]

Is a baby blood crystal wyvern enough to put a carchar into that friend mode or whatever it’s called

[median willow]

How should I level my 58 melee 58 HP imprinted boss rexes for Alpha bosses on Fjordur?

[naive dust]

25k health and the rest in melee

[median willow]

Some people are saying 30k rest in melee for Alpha Fenrisulfr. Will 25k HP be enough for him?

[naive dust]

Depends on your saddle armor

30k wouldn’t hurt either way though

[median willow]

Don't have a saddle yet, planning to get it from the world bosses

I'll try for 30k for now tho since that means they should have 850+ melee after leveling

[molten falcon]

Alpha fenrir will need as much as you can get

Me personally I would stack more mutations for him

[fair wave]

anyone who can help me? i have a error when i try to join my world and i don't know what to do😭 can i send it to anyone?

[proper canyon]

how do i turn off cryo cooldown? ik u can do it cuz a friend did it

[naive dust]

Turn off PvP

[proper canyon]

welp. ig killin babies is gonna be forgotten for a bit

[cedar needle]

would 4 signs work as a trap for a yuty

[proper canyon]

ye

how do i make the guards spawn for Code Red? i killed 13 and they just stopped spawning

how do i remove the host barrier???

Ps4 btw

[naive dust]

You have to host a dedicated server

[cedar needle]

use a rex

[keen light]

When you say all, is it actually all? As in every engram from all maps? If so I think I’m in love 😍 lmao

Oh wait it does! Just found it in the workshop, thank you so much!

[proper canyon]

fuck

[fair wave]

anyone who can help me? i have a error when i try to join my world and i don't know what to do😭 can i send it to anyone?

[polar sandal]

Post first 5 lines

[fair wave]

to late

my game was fckd

whole engine broke

couldn't load it even anymore

[polar sandal]

Game brok
uninstall

[fair wave]

i'm doing it

i lost my map and everything 😭

it's so fcking annoying

luckily i only had like 50 hours on it

still didn't need to happen

[obtuse rover]

You should have backed up your save

Do it everyday

Guys can i transfer dinos in sp to other maps so i could have all the dinos in game???

[fair wave]

never thought my brother would be that stupid

[fair wave]

yea

[polar sandal]

Upload the dino
Not the cryopod
Itll be level 1 on the new server if you cryo it for xfer

[obtuse rover]

Oka

[merry citrus]

I want to play the game via stream. But when I start the game it opens epic games How can I fix this?

[hoary sinew]

Np man

[molten falcon]

By playing the game on steam

[merry citrus]

Yes i played the game on steam

When i open ark on it its open my epic game

@molten falcon i pay for 1 month but i cant play for 4 days

[hollow knot]

I've successfully bred 15 level 94 Spinos.

Now, how do I level them all up easily?

I need to build them up for the bosses.

[molten falcon]

i think you should've bred high level ones instead

[hollow knot]

They're my highest-level Spinos.

The father was tamed at level 94, and the mother was tamed at level 97.

[grave mango]

I suggest getting prime fish meat, finding a level 150 aberrant spino, and taming him

[hollow knot]

I'm not on Aberration.

[light robin]

How do I remove ini

[grave mango]

Are you on the island?

[hollow knot]

Yes.

[grave mango]

Ok, are you solo

Like, single player or on a server?

[hollow knot]

Solo.

[lean junco]

is 80k hp and 3650 attack good enough for alpha dragon on difficulty 20?

[lean junco]

whats your max level? 150? 180?

[hollow knot]

In the wild it's 70, I believe.

But I might be mistaken.

[lean junco]

thats not possible i believe. it has to be a multiple of 30

so 30 60 90 120 150 180 etc

[lean junco]

whats your difficulty level?

[hollow knot]

0.6, if I'm not mistaken.

[lean junco]

do you have allow max level dinos on?

0.6 and max level dinos on would make max level 90. but you would need to change it for the next maps in the game files because with those maps your max level would be 18

iirc, i think thats how that works

[lean junco]

but to lvl them up, make a bunch of rex babies (if you have them, if not baby spinos should serve fine) and kill them with your spino

[merry citrus]

And now?

[grave mango]

What dinosaur are you running

[lean junco]

rex

[grave mango]

Saddle?

[lean junco]

they also all got ascendant saddles

[grave mango]

Ok

You should be fine

But I can’t gaurentee

Never done it that high before, but be wary, Rex’s take more damage

[lean junco]

ik,should i just do theris? i just wanted to use rexes all the way through in order to level them up for tek cave

[polar sandal]

Eh. You can. Wont be pretty tho

The fire does a percentage based attack. It does 20% per attack. So regardless of hp 5 fire breaths its ded

[gusty mason]

yea idk why but i cant open my gachas invetory, do someone know why?

[grave mango]

Cryo pod them, and if that doesn’t work try leaving and joining back, might be desynced

[grave mango]

Highly recommended to do theris or deinos (they need to be at their absolute max though)

[clear heart]

Is there a way I can use mods on top of a mod map? Or only the included ones

I was playing Glacius but my mods werent appearing at all as in the items associated with them

I had S+ better dinos CKF and awsome spyglass

[plain stag]

You should be able to, most mod maps work just fine with mods

[clear heart]

Hmm

Is there anything else i can do to make them appear

[plain stag]

Having them in the loaded mods list should be it

[lean junco]

so lvl 600 theris? crazy

[old zinc]

[old zinc]

ok so im trying to play w a friend on xbox so i downlo9aded the microsoft version and when i try to open it, it instantly crashes
im on pc btw

is that gonna work

bruh

thought yall suppose to fix my shit

[grave mango]

You’re going to have to reinstall, if the game refuses to launch, and crashes, more than likely you have damaged files, if that doesn’t work, try updating your drivers to the latest version 😁

[molten falcon]

I left my tribe and lost all my shit when I put it on personal owner ship

[old zinc]

how do i update my drivers how do i uninstall the game how do i check for damaged files

[grave mango]

If the problem persist, please contact wildcards support team

[grave mango]

Contact a Game Master immediately via their support page

[molten falcon]

How

[grave mango]

Hold on, let me grab a link

Step by step:

Go to this link, and click “Submit a Ticket” - https://support.survivetheark.com/hc/en-us

If you don’t have an ARK account made for the website you will have to make one before moving on, if you do, then log in, and follow through with making a ticket, describing in detail, how and where you lost your tames, since yours is tribe related, provide your server, your tribe name, along with your in game name, hope this helps 😁

[lean junco]

dawg how do you work a pc?

[grave mango]

They usually respond within 1-3 days of submission, back when it happened to me, they helped me that same day, GM Windham was my Game Master, really good guy

[grave mango]

Go to your control panel on your pc, and go into devices > device manager > from there click on video hardware, aka GPU, and right click, then select update drivers

[old zinc]

lmfao im so lost man

[grave mango]

You should be able to figure it out pretty easily if you’ve ever worked any sort of commands/ home brewed troubleshooting of your own lol

If can’t guide you the best possible because I’m at work right now, but if you’re lost, just search “how to update drivers” on your search engine of choice 😁

[old zinc]

ok

[grave mango]

I’m trying to balance not getting fired and helping players the best I can 🤣

[molten falcon]

How do I make a account

[old zinc]

one last question how do i unistall through micrsoft store bruh

[grave mango]

I don’t know, as I’ve not messed with the Microsoft version

Although anything can be uninstalled through program manager

Regardless of what it’s through

[dusty gull]

Hey does anyone know if it’s possible to use a light pet while it’s on your shoulder (I’m on Xbox btw)

[grave mango]

When you click the ticket it should tedirect you to their main page if you’re not signed in, when there, click sign in in the top right, or sign in, by clicking the three bars

[grave mango]

Yes, hold the interact button (I dunno, I play pc lol) and it should bring up a radial menu, then select “toggle light let at full charge” then turn it on

[dusty gull]

I only have whistles and the emotes thing when I do that

[grave mango]

Meant to say, when you’re looking at him

When it says “press _ to pick up”

[dusty gull]

Ohhhh yes I know that I was asking like when he’s on my shoulder can I do that or do I have to throw him off every time

[grave mango]

Ahh I can’t really help there, I know the console version controls are limited, on pc, you’d just press R, I’ll google it real quick and see if I can find something

Just found this on Reddit, don’t know how true it is.

“It actually is possible on Xbox. If you hold down the X button it will pull up the option to access your shoulder pets inventory”

[dusty gull]

Mannn sadly it doesn’t guess I’ll just throw him off I appreciate you helping thanksss

[grave mango]

Sorry I couldn’t help more : (, if you need help with anything else, feel free to ask, I’ll try to the best of my ability

[tropic meteor]

use the clap emote to turn the light on/off

[grave mango]

Lol nice

[dusty gull]

Oh my gosh thank you

[molten falcon]

Buff fat man

[grave mango]

Wait does that actually work??

[molten falcon]

It’s not letting me

[grave mango]

What’s up

[grave mango]

Hm, send a dm, of what you’re running into

[molten falcon]

Ok

[old zinc]

how do i delete games from microsoft store

[keen plover]

Hi do you know how to use tek gloves when using a shield ?

[lean junco]

settings -> apps -> installed apps -> ARK -> uninstall?

[old zinc]

yea i unistalled it but do u think this will help my problem of it stop crashing when i try to open it

[lean junco]

hopefully. its step 1 to fixing problems like these

[grave mango]

Like I said before, there isn’t a for sure way of knowing it will fix it, it could be the issue, but do we know it’s the issue? No, if it persists after reinstalling, please contact Customer Support via - https://support.survivetheark.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

[molten falcon]

I’m not getting a pc till oct is there any chance mods would work on a chrome book ik it won’t be good just wanna know if it would maybe work

[lean junco]

i wouldnt even try

can you get steam on a chromebook? your quality would be horrible vanilla. with mods? your chrome book gonna explode

[shy helm]

anybody else have an issue with the creature id image being a white square?

[plush berry]

I’m confused as to what alpha difficulty is I mean I have my difficulty set to 1 wich is max for Xbox. Is there any other difficulties ?

[lean junco]

wdym alpha difficulty? there are alpha on boss fights. they give better rewards compared to their easier counterparts beta and gamma

[plush berry]

Holy crap you have a time limit on how long you can be in the tek cave before getting to the overseer

It says you lose everything if you go ok for to long

[plush berry]

So how do you get beta and gamma difficulty

[lean junco]

ye there is a time limit. i think its like 45 minutes

[lean junco]

different tributes

for each boss. there are 3. alpha, beta, gamma. gamma being easiest, beta middle, alpha hardest. all boses take 3 artifacts. along with these 3 artifacts are tributes. for each difficulty you either need more tributes, or a different tribute. or a combination of both

[plush berry]

How do you get tributes

[lean junco]

killing dinos who drop them

[plush berry]

Also what does it mean by you lose everything if you take to long in the tek cave

[plush berry]

Oh as in stuff like raptor claws

And Meg teeth

[lean junco]

yes, raptor claws. spino sails. carno arms. stuff like taht

[plush berry]

So then what’s up with the final boss. I mean it seems pretty cheep to have a time limit to get to the overseer

I don’t wanna lose all ma progress

[lean junco]

there is a time limit. and if you dont get to the end of the cave within this time limit. you die. i have personally never made it to the cave. but you die if you dont make it in time

[plush berry]

As in yiu have never beaten the game ?

If you get out of the cave does it reset the time ?

[lean junco]

correct, ive never beaten the game. even with over 1500 hours

[lean junco]

you cant get out of the tek cave once your in. after i believe 5 minutes the door will close. thats how long you have to get your dinos in

[plush berry]

This shit sucks

[lean junco]

howd you get in without the tributes?

[weary egret]

You can get i if somebody else opens the door

[plush berry]

I didn’t I haven’t even cleared one cave yet I’m just stating how unfair this game is 😭

And you have to beat the tek cave to beat the game ?

[weary egret]

And if you die inside of tek cave you die and all your iventory is lost along with all creatures that went inside

Overssear is just the first final boss the isanity increases every ark map

Ark as a huge learning curve it takes time to learn but once you learn things start getting way easier, expect many death and fails

[lean junco]

Yes, in order to progress

But its not the end

5 maps after The Island

[plush berry]

You make me wanna have a mental breakdown

[plush berry]

Damn I hope I don’t die in the tek cave

[weary egret]

I recomend doing some researh if you go in blindy im pretty sure you will die

Of course before you even attempt gamma tek cave/overseear you have to beat the 3 gamma lower bosses

[lean junco]

yes like galacxium said above, you need to defeat all the bosses before the tek cave as their trophies are needed to enter it. and you should also watch videos on every cave you decide to go in and and every boss you decide to fight

[plush berry]

What lvl should my Rex’s be I mean it would be really hard to level up each breeded rex individually

[weary egret]

If you dont wanna be to spoiled check wiki for some general tips, unless you want to trial error alot

Level sometimes is relative, but leveling up manually usually isnt a very efficient they level up much faster on cryopods or kill your own baby rexes with your creatures if the settings alows it as long they are high level right after using lystro buff

[solemn timber]

I'm having an issue with my Ark. I used to host a non dedicated session for myself and another person on the LAN but now it's not working as in they cannot join. I have opened the ports and everything. So I tried the run dedicated session which closed the game and opens the gameserver.exe but then I cannot open the game to join...says it's already running...

[lean junco]

depends, what difficulty level are you on? whats your max level? gamma beta or alpha? are you bringing a yuty or a daedon?

lots of factors, but like galacxium said you dont want to be too spoiled and get all the information from us. do some research

[cloud nacelle]

fill it with bullets

send me a screen shot of ur turrets

ive played long enough to know thats not possible without it being some type of hack

^

[tired pagoda]

When’s beginner wipe?

[brazen robin]

should be the 11th

[tired pagoda]

Thx❤️

[lean sinew]

Can anybody give me a rock drake egg any lvl , ps4 official or I can help get them I’ll be bait so you can get in and out quick

[lean junco]

i know youre not supposed to mix mutations. so how do i transfer a mutation onto an already mutated dino? or does this not apply when a mutation is passed down a line so that the inheritor of the mutation can breed with another mutated one

[warm bison]

How can I fix a clustered server not showing up in transfer list, when the server can be seen and connected to directly via server browser? Other players can see and transfer normally but I can't for some reason

[lean junco]

like if i get a mutated male, do i only want mutations on males from there?

[plush berry]

Rex and yuti normal difficulty

[naive dust]

You only want mutations on a male. If you get a mutation on a female you can breed her with the nonmutated male from your line until you get the mutation on a male and then proceed from there.

[lean junco]

so i can never get a mutation from a female onto an already mutated male

[plush berry]

So for normal bosses what lvl do my Rex need to be and how do I lvl them all up quickly

[lean junco]

normal still doesnt tell me anything

whats the max level? highest level you can get on a wild dino?

[plush berry]

150

[plain stag]

Depends on your settings.

[lean junco]

i was asking the turtle dude

[plain stag]

Oh my bad , misread lol

[lean junco]

@naive dust i just got a melee mutation on a female how do i get this over to a male who already has a health mutation

Bee do you know the answer?

[plain stag]

You typically don't, you'd keep the lines separate. Have a melee line and a health line until you're ready to combine them.

[naive dust]

Breed them together but you don’t wanna do that

[plain stag]

https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Breeding

https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Mutations

[lean junco]

well the female got the mutation from its dad, and its dad has the health mutation

[plain stag]

I'd discard it, personally

[lean junco]

poor female

[plain stag]

Get your health line where you want it before working on a melee line if you don't have enough clean females.

[lean junco]

can i just i have 5 clean females breeding with 1 male who had gotten a health mutation

[plain stag]

Regardless, if you get a female with a mutation and the stats you want, breed it to a clean male.

[plain stag]

Yes. Switch out the male each time you get a new male with a health mutation.

[lean junco]

so then after that, get a clean male, breed the females with it. until i get a melee mutation

max melee on that male

then with these two males how do i get the health and melee onto 20 new theris for dragon

[plain stag]

https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Mutations

[warm bison]

Basic foolproof mutation guide
Get breeding pair, good stats are better
Mate until desired mutation
If on a male, replace old male. If on a female, breed with clean* male to get new stat on male, then replace old male
Continue adnauseum

After 20 mutations on male, mutation rates will be halved since it's only coming from the clean female side

[warm bison]

Just breed those stats with females until you get a female with one of the stats. Then breed it and the other stat male to hopefully combine them

[lean junco]

ok, i still dont understand why i would replace the mutated male with a clean male who only has 1 mutated stat

[plain stag]

The mutations pass down each time, but the stats do not always stay the same.

[obtuse folio]

Whats the best place to go 2 find gigas to start a giga army

[rocky coral]

Aberration 👍

[obtuse folio]

💀

[potent wagon]

how rare are liopleurodons on the island? bc i just found 4 within like 100 meters from each other

[rocky coral]

Not sure I'd recommend solo Rhino manticore

But yh, ride it around and hit with Its charge ability, have veggi cakes to heal
While Manti is flying if ur safe u can dismount and Shotgun the boss, bring gasmask medbrew

[rocky coral]

Sounds kinda lucky

[potent wagon]

yeah... thats why im so confused

[potent wagon]

...make that 5

i dont know how i keep finding them like this

bruh and my basilo just clipped out of the map and died

i dont know if i am lucky or unlucky

[plush berry]

M Dino says it wants care and then has a countdown timer

What’s up with that

[neon zealot]

That's imprint. Gives an improvement to some stats

[hoary sinew]

Not lucky 😂

[opaque oyster]

someone please help I used to stream ARK no prob, but recently everytime i start screen capturing ARK it freezes

[plush berry]

Do I have a certain amount of time to get the stuff for imprinting

Do you have to imprint before they are adults

[grave mango]

Yes

They MUST be imprinted before their an adult, if it doesn’t get to exactly 100% by the time they’re adult, then you’ll get a percentage based on what their imprint was at

78% imprinted = roughly a 23% imprint boost

[plush berry]

Hmmmm ok thanks

[timber dew]

I am getting UE4 shooter game error. Some fatal error is written on down

[polar sandal]

Thats.... Not helpful lol

Copy the first 5 lines and paste here or refer to the general crash guide in the pins

[glossy hatch]

everytime i join my friends non dedicated it says timeout/lost connection to host how do i fix this

[polar sandal]

Use dedicated

When first joining a server with mods, you might get this error a few times while Steam downloads the mods to your machine. You can help speed this process up by subscribing to the mods on the Workshop page. Otherwise, just keep trying.

[winter basin]

So I’ve started a new single player on The Island, is there any way to get Wind Turbines without actually transferring them in?

[polar sandal]

You can use command giveengrams to get all engrams and make them, or you can transfer to se, or like fjordor a free map, learn it then come back

[winter basin]

I was hoping to avoid the transfer, but I might use the command

[molten falcon]

I have 7 ravagers all have saddles and they have 5k health is that enough for the green cave in abberation

[feral portal]

is 100 tranq arrows enough to knock down a lvl 150 rex?

[sterile parrot]

Ye

[hoary sinew]

I'd bring another 50-100. Be careful though because if you use the crossbow it may end up killing the rex. (If it has almost no stats in health)

[lean junco]

last night i was playing getting 70fps on epic settings, i get on today and im running 7fps on low. Anyone know why? How can i fix this?

grapics drivers are updated

[lean junco]

trap it so you can use the magnifying glass on it

assuming you dont want to use the magnifying glass while its right in front of you eating you

[left lintel]

Bring another crossbow

[feral portal]

check ur temps, perhaps the drives are behind this?

[mental ermine]

Hey sorry for the bother but haven't been able to connect or pick up any servers for the last 2 days is you could maybe help

[bright ridge]

What food does equus eat?

I knocked one out but it won't eat meat or berries or fish

[left lintel]

It eats berries

but I recommend carrots if u can access it but berries do fine too

[grave mango]

Check the temperature of your CPU, it could be that, if not, the. Check your drivers temperature, and if it still ain’t that, you could possibly be bottlenecking

[hasty wolf]

They’re a passive tame. Feed it carrots and then ride it, feeding when it prompts you to do so

Feeding outside of the prompt will dismount you and take away taming effectiveness

[bright ridge]

Thankyou I just tamed it and then I got snuck up on my an level 165 tek rex 😭

It died and I lost all my ascendant weopons

[nimble badger]

Can someone tell me why I can't get a single melee mutation on my megalosauruses? (I've collected over 120.000 weight points worth of meat/prime meat for killing babies, and I checked literally every baby)

And no Im not at the mutation max, thats cause I just started like a few hours ago.

Didn't get a single mutation since then for melee.

[red olive]

For each mutation type you have about a 1% chance of getting said mutation. You might have to go through a few hundred eggs

[nimble badger]

I went through thousands by now

(playing on massively boosted server so hatching/mating only takes like 3 minutes)

[red olive]

Well, best bet, get Dino storage and get more breeders

[nimble badger]

? I already having 10 males, each with like 20 females.

All with same stats and all

No mutations in those males or females

[red olive]

Just keep going then lol

It's not guaranteed that you will immediately get a mutation

[nimble badger]

My man, it's not like i've been playing on a 20x rescource server. Playing on a 1.5x, so 120.000 will take a long, long time.

Oh and I've gotten at least like 4 triple mutations now, not a single one into melee.

Something might be wrong with my server lol

[red olive]

As far as I am aware there is no server setting that can get rid of melee mutations

[nimble badger]

Exactly

The only thing I changed with settings are hatching speed, maturiation speed, mating speed and mating interval turned to 0.05, which makes it like 30 seconds.

[red olive]

So no the server isn't the problem

[nimble badger]

Yea

[red olive]

You are just having bad luck

[nimble badger]

I checked all the mating dino's a lot of times to make sure they didn't have mutations or smthing

[nimble badger]

Do you know how rare a triple mutation is? I got at least 4 of those, and not a single normal mutation into melee? Seems kinda weird to me.

Idk if it matters but playing on abberation

[polar sandal]

Nah. Mutations are random and hard coded. Aside from using some mods you cannot have control over that

[nimble badger]

Exactly, I just think it's weird that I went through thousands of babies and not a single melee mutation.

[humble zephyr]

Whats "asa" or "ase"?

[nimble badger]

asa is ark survival ascended, ase is ark survival evolved

[polar sandal]

Unlucky ye. Weird not particularly

[humble zephyr]

ah thx

[nimble badger]

You know what a triple mutation is?

[polar sandal]

I do

[nimble badger]

Know how rare those are?

[polar sandal]

Something like 0.3% in half

[nimble badger]

Chances are 0.00156%

Got 4 of those

Not a single one into melee...

[red olive]

I mean, that happens

[polar sandal]

Unless your using mods to edit mutations

Your just unlucky
I can tell thats not what you were hoping to hear, however that really is just how it is

[nimble badger]

Damn

At this point I'm honestly just starting to think to just spawn some OP megalos in and breed those, but I wanted to do all story maps without any sort of cheating but ah well

[red olive]

Well, don't do any cheating then

2hat are your megalos rn?

[nimble badger]

Level?

[red olive]

Points

[nimble badger]

Into melee: 42

Level is 233 for all of them

[red olive]

Well, while you wait for melee mutations, run the gamma and beta ab fight

[nimble badger]

wdym, I'll lose guaranteed

[red olive]

Why do you think that lol?

[nimble badger]

I mean like I never done any boss fight besides beyla legitemetly, but I think you need like lvl 400 stuff for abberation boss, a ascendant shotgun, a reaper and excellent armor

[red olive]

Yeah, no

You can literally do it on foot with a mid shotgun

[opaque oyster]

does that take skill tho?

[nimble badger]

Yea and I have essentially 0 skill

[red olive]

Not really, just cactus broth

[nimble badger]

Im already amazed of myself for managing to tame a karkinos (with a trap I found on yt)

So skill is something I lack

[opaque oyster]

proud of you :D

[nimble badger]

Thanks I guess

[red olive]

You just need a few thousand more hours lol

[nimble badger]

Fair enough

Ok so Can I tell you my megalos stats and you tell me if it's enough for gamma or perhaps beta? (I'll also find a good shotgun and armor, and tame a reaper if im brave enough to get pregnant)

(their unleveled)

[red olive]

You said 42 points melee, that's good enough for gamma and beta

[nimble badger]

36 health?

kinda bad to be honest

[red olive]

I mean, put them all in the bridge, and their health shouldn't really matter. Just get a good saddle, a rockdrake and a decent shotgun

[nimble badger]

Ok

I'll get a good egg with a karki, that's actually quite easy

(for a rock drake)

And a reaper

Ok bye

[mental ermine]

Oi no answer on down servers, honestly need to get back to my base before my dinos die

[polar sandal]

....whats the question?

[median willow]

Anyone know the best place to get a rex saddle bp in Fjordur/which boss is best to get one?

[scenic dune]

idk if this is a good chat to post this in but is the studiowildcard.com/jobs the official website for wildcard?

[polar sandal]

Eh underwater crates i guess but you'll be farming forever. The loot tables are like "everything that exists may drop here"

Some of the missions on gen1 have rex saddle bps as a reward our of a possible like 10 items rather than 200 though

[polar sandal]

Correct

[median willow]

yeah ig
already found one with 54 armour but thats p low so wanted to look for more
thanks for the help tho

[mental ermine]

Why can't I see any servers official and un-offcial, only personally dedicated, have uninstalled and re installed it but alas it was to no avail

[polar sandal]

Sounds like a network issue, assuming your client is current
Try a vpn

[mental ermine]

On xbox?👀

[noble dust]

So since yesterday all ark servers are not showing up , searching then no sessions found on both official and unofficial

[polar sandal]

Vpn is configured through your router

[polar sandal]

Same as above.

[noble dust]

And it's not only mine it's my whole 6man tribe

Looks like africa region is down

I can join on someone else though

[polar sandal]

Cloudflare was having issues yesterday. I have not checked today. This can cause networking issues for a few days until your isp updates the new dns. The time depends on your isp and location

Yes. Yesterday most the cloudflare downage was in africa

[noble dust]

So basically I can't play😭

[polar sandal]

If you get a European or usa based VPN it may provide a temporary fix

[noble dust]

I'm not that IT clued up🤣

And on console

[polar sandal]

Norton offers a free 30 day trial. It is a usa based VPN service and may help

Vpns are assigned through your router. Not the device

[noble dust]

Yeah not sure how to do all that m8

[polar sandal]

Fair.

[noble dust]

But thanks

Anywhere I can check for it to b3 resolved

[polar sandal]

Durban, South Africa - (DUR)Re-routed

Cloudflare basically is the internet these days. They control and own the majority of datacenters around the world

Legit half of africa is being re reouted. Dns usually takes 24-48 hours to update so... Hopefully be resolved soon

Fatal error!

[spark trench]

Can someone tell me why everytime I try and join a dedicated server, the game loads, but then gets stuck on "PrimalGameData_BT", then says "Host Connection Timeout" after a few minutes?

[grave mango]

Here’s what I found online

-Fried1

“Hello, You can try the default fix for this which is verifying file integrity which usually fixes most basic Ark issues. Make sure the game is closed and in Steam, right-click Ark and go to Properties>Local Files> Verify integrity of game files. Once this finishes (yes it takes a while) try launching the game again. If the problem STILL persists you may have to do it twice in a row. So you verify files, wait for it to finish, verify files again. The only time ive had to do it twice like this is when my game crashed loading wyvern nests and I couldnt move my character away from the nest. So hopefully verifying files once should work.

Also note that if something is missing or corrupt the game will tell you and will attempt to fix it.”

[molten falcon]

@grave mango ur a cool dude Ty got all my shit back

[grave mango]

No problem, glad I could help you out

[cyan echo]

Ok, I'm a bit frustrated now. My T button to transfer items, still does not work, and my tooltips, still do not work. At this point, I have uninstalled, and reinstalled Ark, I checked to make sure no bindings were changed, and I made sure that tooltips were toggled.
What on earth is going on? If you have an answer please ping

[plush berry]

Is there a setting to speed up the preserving bin and how much meat can it make jerky at a time

[plain stag]

Not without mods.

[torpid gyro]

is possible to upload a stryder to change the server? (small tribes)

[plush berry]

How much meat does the preserve bun make

[bright mulch]

https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Preserving_Bin

[plush berry]

Wait so does it only need spark powder cause it also says it needs oil

Now I’m getting mixed answers on sources on weather or not it needs oil to run

[bright mulch]

https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Cooked_Meat_Jerky

that is all the info on jerky

the one I gave before hand, was info on how the bin works

since both sources go hand in hand

The wiki is the most accurate infomation to date

[plain stag]

It only needs oil if you are making jerky.

[opaque oyster]

someone please help I used to stream ARK no prob, but recently everytime i start screen capturing ARK it freezes

[plush berry]

I can’t kill my unclaimed Rex on my single player world

[silent mauve]

Pve is prob on

Go into settings and make sure pvp is on

[plush berry]

But if I have pvp on won’t my Dino be able to hurt each other

[silent mauve]

Only unclaimed Dino’s

[silent mauve]

Atleast im pretty sure

[plush berry]

Any other changes pvp makes ?

[silent mauve]

U can just turn it off after

[silent mauve]

Cryo sickness

[plush berry]

What’s that

[silent mauve]

Dino’s go to sleep if u use cryopods before a timer in the corner goes down

[silent mauve]

Timer starts when unpod a Dino

[plush berry]

So they get sick when you un pod them ?

Either way it will go away if I turn pvp back on right

[silent mauve]

They just get knocked unconscious

[silent mauve]

Yes

Pve

[plush berry]

Do you know if there’s a admin command to turn it in and off or if I have to leave to do it

[silent mauve]

I think u have to leave

[plush berry]

Does cryo sickness effect Dino’s in cryo pods in a cryofridge

[silent mauve]

It only affects Dino’s if u unpod them but once u turn pve back on it doesn’t happen anymore

[plush berry]

K thanks

[silent mauve]

Np

[plush berry]

Will they try to kill me if I attack them when I unclaim them

[silent mauve]

Only if they are adults

Anything less even adolescents they shouldn’t

[plush berry]

Well crap they do be adults

[naive dust]

Just set them on passive before unclaiming

[hollow flare]

Is anyone else on Xbox experiencing ark app freezing mid game in TSOTF after waiting in the lobby 💀

[plush berry]

So if theee is a item that is damaged will it still work even if it isn’t repaired

But it’s not fully broken

[rocky coral]

??? What like a crossbow that's damaged? Yes u can obviously keep using it till its broken

[plush berry]

No like an industrial forge

If it’s damaged does it make a difference

[rocky coral]

Nope, It's fine to use

[plush berry]

Does killing off your tames have any negative effect

[rocky coral]

Not really?

Iv killed useless tamed iv collected from pvp raids

Or killed useless babies hatched I don't Wana raise

Or killed babies for XP boosting

[solemn timber]

Anyway to perm unlock tek engrams? I messed with my gameusersettings.ini and tek engrams I had unlocked previously are now locked.

[plush berry]

For Xbox is there a faster way to move things from tamed dinos inventories into your inventory?

[plush berry]

So I now have 2 fully imprinted Rex and they started with 1k HP and over 450% damage. Is that pretty good starting stats

They lvl 217

[plush berry]

How do I figure out if u have a mutation or not ?

[vague karma]

It's usually when a dinosaur have a different color from the parents. Like if two dinos are white and the baby came out yellow, that's when you know a mutation occured. Also if the baby has a higher level than the parents usually (when two parents are the same level)

[naive dust]

Is 1k hp a typo?

1k hp is so bad I didn’t even think it was possible

[coral sapphire]

Probs 10k or something

[humble zephyr]

Does anybody know what is up with the skins you can buy in the hlna shop on genesis? Are they like one time use and if you loose them they have to be bought again?

[dusty gull]

Well kinda if you die with it you lose the item ofc but if you go and get the item it still had the skin same with dinosaurs if you use a skin on them if they die you can get the skin again

[grave mango]

Only fix I can find online that doesn’t involved reinstalling the game

“Hello I had the same issue with T not working to transfer inventory items every time I launch the game with Nvidia Ansel... just launch it with any other option”

[slate minnow]

This can also break in vanilla sometimes, just reset keybinds seems to work for me

[pallid anvil]

Im having an issue with baby corpses falling through the world. I am currently trying to breed for mutated wolfs and I'm killing off the babies that are the incorrect level, but the corpses keep falling through the world and are starting to pile up. does anyone know of a way to fix this?

[polar sandal]

Ye. They do that

Shoot it with a projectile like, an arrow. Make sure the projectile gets the kill hit

[pallid anvil]

dang, is that the only way? Ive got a few wolfs breeding at the same time, so ill need to do that with about 6-7 babies every time I get a new batch

and Ill probably be hatching eggs in batches of 40-50 when breeding rexes down the line

[polar sandal]

As a vanilla console player, that is the only thing im aware of that doesn't involve changing files or adding mods

Someone may know more about it though

[pallid anvil]

thats unfortunate, thank you for you help though, I should be able to get by with my crossbow until I get to the egg stages

[nimble badger]

For me personally, it helped if the babies died on a ceiling, not foundation/natural ground

[cyan echo]

Yeah, I found that too, and got it resolved. Thanks though!

[spark pine]

does the DoExit command preform a save first ?

[craggy cairn]

if I feed a dino that im taming more narcotics than it needs while its already at full torpidity, will it stay at full torpidity for longer?

[polar sandal]

This command will stop/shutdown the server at the soonest possible time.

Dosent say so, so i wouldnt... Plan on it

Saveworld does tho. But not exits

[polar sandal]

Ye.

[grave mango]

Any time

[lean junco]

is there a way to keybind a way to whistle a certain tame group

[proper frigate]

isnt it using ur numpad if i rmr correctly

[lean junco]

numpad is set to my hotbar?

[proper frigate]

like the numbers at the top or the numbers at the side

cuz the numbers on the side shouldn't be doing that

[lean junco]

dont got any on the side. and the numbers ontop are set to my hotbar

[proper frigate]

oh

[lean junco]

i have an 80% keyboard

[proper frigate]

yeah if you had a keyboard with numbers on the side, they would be those ones. but your other numbers are for ur hotbar yes. I have no clue if u dont have a numpad

you could try and bind them to different keys in ur keybinds?

[lean junco]

they arent there, i already looked

[proper frigate]

rip i don't know how i can help you then, sorry about that

[molten falcon]

Anyone know when next arkpoc wipe is ps5

[craggy cairn]

so if it needs 500 according to dododex, i can feed it 500 right after knockout and give it the food, and it will tame on its own while im offline

[candid hazel]

You can bind them but not ingame , theres a keybind ini file in the games folder

[polar sandal]

Well, i cant say that i have tried in that quantity. But i can say if you over feed it, it stays full torp longer.

Maybe do like sets of 50. See how it goes

[lean junco]

same folder as the gamusersettings.ini?

[craggy cairn]

I have to get offline though, the ankylo needs a total of 143 narcos so I fed it 450 before I got off and I gave it a bunch of mejoberries. Worst case it’s still there untamed when I get back

[polar sandal]

Cant seem to find a definitive answer. Perhaps someone else knows. Most sources say no tho.

Go club a dodo and see

[proper frigate]

any new fixes for cryo crashing? I downloaded newest nvidia drivers 536.99 and it would still crash. What do I do?

[lean junco]

get dino storage. cryo = 💩

[proper frigate]

yeah i know but I've never beaten the boss before even thought I know how to. I want to beat the island boss without mods just to have it in my books

so I can say that I've beaten the boss legitimately before

[lean junco]

its not a huge advantage its just better crypods

but if thats what you want alr

[proper frigate]

i know but the entire point is that I don't want to beat the game with mods

[lean junco]

idk any fixes

[proper frigate]

I want to beat it without any mods and no exceptions just so i can say that i have 😅

[proper frigate]

alr

[fair wave]

does anyone know how i can get up my tree platform? Like what could i build?

[grave mango]

I Ladder could help

[fair wave]

mhh

good idea but it looks ugly

[grave mango]

Maybe the rope ladder from aberration? It looks a bit prettier

[lean junco]

a flyer?

[grand night]

guys please help, will i be able to craft a wingsuit thing in crystal isles? if not, which map can i craft it on which isnt a paid dlc?e

[candid hazel]

\ARK\ShooterGame\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor check the Input.ini file for "ActionMappings=(ActionName="SelectOrderGroup1, Key=NumPadOne" then keybind to whatever you like, could be F1 to F10

[fair wave]

what if it dies? and i can't get up

[lean junco]

alright ty

[lean junco]

it cant die unless you let it

[tired pagoda]

At what time on August 11th do beginners wipe?

[lean junco]

thylas wont be able to get on your tree

[tired pagoda]

Or how do I see?

[fair wave]

and what if i accidentally run in to a giga?

and it only kills my pt

but yea i will se

see*

[lean junco]

dont fly close enough for it to kill you

they're big, you should be able to see it before it agros

[tired pagoda]

At what time on August 11th do beginners wipe?

[proud patio]

So, i'm going through all the story maps with this same character and im rn on ab, and the last time i logged i was playing as normal when the power went out, and so did the pc. I logged back on ab just to meet the character creation tab. I'm not that deep into the map yet but i did have a lot of progress on me, and i hadnt saved the map on my usb stick yet, but i DO have my scorched save from before i transfered the character and items. Is there a way to recover my character, and if there isnt, could i just replace my post-transfer scorched save with the one i made before transferring, letting it stay as normal?
Little edit, i'm on single player on all maps, and yes, i did test checking 'download survivors' and it isnt there

[lean junco]

whats the best way to find gigas on the island for alpha dragon tribute

[proud patio]

what exactly would i be looking for? genuine question

[hasty wolf]

If you go into the shooter game files you’ll find one that says something like “Abberation save file”

If it’s not there then your progress is gone

If it is there but you can’t load it, find the most recent file and add .old to it. Then take the second most recent file and remove the stuff on the end

[proud patio]

i'll look into that, thanks for the info

18:56:51: Launching game...
18:56:52: Note: File blocks can be ignored if they don't cause problems with the game.
18:56:52: [INFO] Blocked loading of file: "D:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\ARK\ShooterGame\Binaries\Win64\dxgi.dll".

Nevermind, Looks like I got it fixed.

[modern glen]

[full heart]

How can I block some creatures spawn?

[rocky coral]

U can structure spam off an area of map to stop resources/dino spawns there

[timber dew]

Some of my whistles are not working with the shortcut keys. I even tried logging out and logging in several times. Any fixes?

[median willow]

For Hati and Skoll will 10 gigas with 279% melee and 33k hp (imprinted) be good?

[abstract ether]

havent played much fordjur but it should be more then enough

[median willow]

Awesome, ty

[grave mango]

Blue name = Alliance

You’re inviting them to an alliance, not your physical tribe

Try kicking them out of the tribe and re inviting them

Hm extremely weird

I think that’s genuinely the first time I’ve heard of that before

[tawdry saddle]

Anyone else has a problem with the admin gun?

[plush berry]

So I have around 20 fully imprinted Rex with around 15-20k HP and 400-500% attack think that enough for the first boss

[bleak shadow]

@plush berry which Boss? Official rates or custom?

[plush berry]

Whatever the easiest is for the island

What els would I need for the harder ones though

[bleak shadow]

For broodmother and megapithecus they will be good, dont forget setup High armor saddles.
Primitive 25.0 cannot be enough 😐@plush berry

[naive dust]

gonna be super honest. i feel like ive answered this question for you like 7 times in the last week or so

[obtuse folio]

Wheres the best place to find high lvl mantis ive never tamed one before

[bleak shadow]

Ragnarok desert or lost Island desert 😉

If you Play on official you should easy find 140+ lv there.
On scorched earth there are usually low level dinosaurs

[obtuse folio]

👍

[plush berry]

Yeah probably I just forget 😂

[abstract galleon]

so basicly i connect my ps4 controller on ps and everything works fine on ark besides being able to wwalk back and forewords any knows how to fix (dont ask why i wanna play controller)

[plush berry]

Do caves still spawn enemies even if I got the artifact

Like if I go back to the cave after I’ve Beeten it

[frosty crag]

Why won’t my ark open on pc?

[polar sandal]

Yes

[abstract galleon]

anyone know how to fix?

[polar sandal]

Are you on epic

[abstract galleon]

steam

[polar sandal]

Are you in orbit. K for default

[abstract galleon]

doesnt work in both

its so weird i can do all but not walk to the front or back

[polar sandal]

Press
Left Alt + Shift
And make sure your in the proper language.

[abstract galleon]

talking abt controller my friend

[polar sandal]

Or winkey space

Yeah. I know

If at anytime previously you accidentally pressed that key combo and changed the language it can mess with your controller inputs

[abstract galleon]

my language settings fine if i try to walk on kbm it works and i tried both language settings on controller

[polar sandal]

Because if it's not that youll probably need to reset your bindings, so I figured that would be a safer place to check first

[abstract galleon]

can i reset controller bindings in ark smh?

[polar sandal]

Youd reset your keyboard bindings

[abstract galleon]

can try

worked ty 😄

[obtuse folio]

Does the male mantis die after breeding??

[abstract galleon]

no

[grave mango]

Yesnt

[plush berry]

So you have to get the artifacts frome the caves to fight the bosses right

[polar sandal]

Yup! Visit a tribute to see which ones you need or ya know. Google

[polar ruin]

no

[polar sandal]

Where u been

[obtuse folio]

Is mastercraft pickaxe and hatchet blueprints rare?

[nimble badger]

Yea

[grave mango]

Rarest is Ascendant blueprints for just about anything useful in the game

Rex saddle, rare, metal hatchet and pickaxe, rare, longneck rifle, rare, etc etc

[brazen venture]

Remove split screen distance feature

[west robin]

how long does rhynio take to grow up on 5x maturation?

after its born from host creature

[molten falcon]

Your game would instantly crash, your xbox cant handle everything loaded in at once

It can barely handle singleplayer alone

[brazen venture]

cheeze

[brazen venture]

thats why sony is superior

[obtuse rover]

Guys can i transfer meks and titans from extinction to other maps in sp?

[grave mango]

titans i doubt, but meks yes

[polar sandal]

Using a series x to host will remove tether if you have the enhanced edition installed

[brazen venture]

bin chilling

[brazen venture]

ty for that info

[obtuse rover]

😭

How am i supposed to transfer all my dinos when the cap is 20?

[polar sandal]

If you upload them they should keep their levels and points. But they will use the new servers stat calculations. If you transfer them in a cryopod they may reset their level.

I think.

[obtuse rover]

I play single player and i dont have much time since the game takes so long to complete i wanted to transfer everything when i start a new map but it turned out i could only transfer 20 dinos

[polar sandal]

At a time yea. You can nake another trip

[obtuse rover]

It makes another character every time so?

Or maybe i just dont get it

[polar sandal]

You can upload your character as well then download it

Instead if create new survivor select download survivor

[obtuse rover]

Then i need to do it again for other dinos and it will replace the character?

Ahh this shi complicated

Like the game itself

[polar sandal]

Or you can just leave one character on one server. Upload dinos. Switch to the orher map and survivor download them. Go load back into the other map. Upload more... And so on

[obtuse elbow]

Help, I can't seem to be able to open fjordur

I have it downloaded cuz it shows up in my dlc list on steam

[obtuse rover]

I had the same problem till i downloaded the map

[obtuse elbow]

but when I join a multip fjordur it shows me the steam page

[obtuse rover]

Updated the game

[obtuse elbow]

wdym how do I do that

[obtuse rover]

Just update the game

[obtuse elbow]

how do I do that

[obtuse rover]

Cause you need to download the map

[obtuse elbow]

doesn't say I need to update it on steam

[polar sandal]

Try to uncheck it from the dlc list. Then check it again. It thinks, at least, you don't have it installed

[obtuse rover]

Then idk

[molten falcon]

yo, i'm playing singleplayer with mods and there's these wild smaller dodorexes, i'm planning on having 20 of them, they do about 400-1k damage per bite and have around 10k HP, is this enough for broodmother gamma?

[polar sandal]

Ah ya probably lol

[obtuse elbow]

ok so I tried the stuff

and I tried to redownload the dlc

when I click on download it just opens the app

[grand night]

hey guys im on fjordur ps4 split screen with a friend, we just started and got an andrewsarchus each at the extreme right location of the island, we're looking for a base location thats good looking and resource rich with an obelisk nearby as we're transfering between maps every now and then, any suggestions?

[ancient thicket]

Honestly I don’t understand the difference between dedicated and non-dedicated servers

[amber hull]

anybody know why whevever i load onto gen 2 i blue screen

[bright mulch]

Non dedicated are servers that a hosted from a players single player world and comes with a host tether barrier that can not be adjusted

Dedicated get spilt into 2 categories: Official and unofficial.

Official servers are the ones run and managed by wildcard, Unofficial are the ones run by players themselves either through a paid provider like Nitrado or G-portal or by turning their console/device into a server.

[ancient thicket]

Makes sense. Thank you!

[bright mulch]

No worries, have a great day

[sage prawn]

Is anyone else having trouble with Xbox? I keep getting kicked constantly… it’s unplayable 🥺 it’s been like this for about 10 days or so. Just wondering if I’m alone with this problem.

[kind oar]

How do you put a foundation on a ceiling in Ark?

I’m on Single player so I can change settings if there is a way to do it in settings

[plush berry]

Is a diplocaulus good for a tame

There’s a 145 near me I dunno if it’s worth it though

[naive dust]

It’s good early game if you’re messing around in the water.

Good for travel before you have a flyer.

But that’s only because it’s fast, doesn’t require a saddle, and provides you with oxygen.

[plush berry]

I’m going into the swamps with fiber armor

[naive dust]

It will get murdered if you’re not careful, and falls from relevance pretty quick once you get scuba or a strong underwater tame

That’s not a great decision

Kapro gonna get ya

[plush berry]

I can’t seem to find baryonix anywhere in the swamps

[naive dust]

They’re there.

Which swamp are you at? East or Central?

I see them in central swamp far more than eastern

[plush berry]

The one In red woods

[plush berry]

Is central the red woods

[naive dust]

It would border the redwoods to the south

[plush berry]

K thanks

[stuck stirrup]

Yo what time is Arkpoc wipe tmmr?

[rotund turtle]

Anyone know how the moschops harvest works? Can it harvest automatically?

[obtuse rover]

Enable wandering i think

[stark dock]

What time does arkpoc wipe

[cyan fern]

can anyone help me with achievement to collect all artefacts

[polar sandal]

Like you have a question, or you want physical help

[polar sandal]

Eh. Like 10 hours
Ish
No real set time

[cyan fern]

I need find all commands to teleport to all 11 artefacts becouse spawning them doesn't work for me

[polar sandal]

Correct. They need to be in your inventory

The coords for them vary from map to map. Just google artifact locations for the map your on

[cyan fern]

I know that they need to be in inv

[polar sandal]

Thats good.
Good luck !

[cyan fern]

💀

[polar sandal]

Do you... Want me to google it for you and use my psychic powers to know what map your on ?

[cyan fern]

to achiev I need only from The island ?

or all all

[polar sandal]

Usually achievements are based on what was on the island originally. But the same artifacts are available across all maps

[cyan fern]

why on the ark wiki there is only 10 of them on the island

[polar sandal]

The island was arks first map and does bot have much of what was later added to the game

Hence why the achievement for taming dinos only requires the island dinos, as when the achievement came out, thats all there was

[cyan fern]

so I'v got all 10 artefacts on the island and no achievement

[polar sandal]

Unsure how steam achievements work but sometimes it can take up to a day for a xbox achievement to show. Assuming you collected them all on one character and had them in your inventory at some point

Beyond that all i can say is achievements can be weird

[polar sandal]

There is 11 required

For this trophy you must spawn in all the artifacts crates and then loot their individual artifacts. Simple type in one of the commands below and an alien looking crate will spawn floating in front of you. Then all you need to do is hit on the crate to open its' inventory and move the artifact into your inventory. After you have moved the artifact, simply back out of the crate and you are ready to spawn the next one in.

Note: I suggest waiting around 10 seconds in between looting an artifact and spawning in the next crate so the game has adequate enough time to register that you did indeed loot the artifact.

summon artifactcrate_1_c
summon artifactcrate_2_c
summon artifactcrate_3_c
summon artifactcrate_4_c
summon artifactcrate_5_c

summon artifactcrate_6_c
summon artifactcrate_7_c
summon artifactcrate_8_c
summon artifactcrate_9_c
summon artifactcrate_10_c
summon artifactcrate_11_c

There

I googled for you 😛

[wooden radish]

why do stone particles pop up in my face when im shooting (shotgun)? Its nearly blinding me every time i shoot

[cyan fern]

nothing happened

[polar sandal]

Did you open each one and wait at least 10 aeconds between each one

[cyan fern]

yes

even more than 10 sec

[bright mulch]

werid after looting all 11 should of been instant unlock

[cyan fern]

I know

but it's not

[bright mulch]

Did you get the skin unlock at all? As some players say they get the skin but not the achievement

[cyan fern]

no, you mean that bunny hat ?

[bright mulch]

yea the bunny skin is linked to it

along with hairstyles

So if you got the skin you got the achievement, seems steam not registering it on their end

[cyan fern]

i don't have skin and achiev 😦

[bright mulch]

weird, you are doing this in singleplayer right?

[cyan fern]

yes

[bright mulch]

yea should of had no issues

[polar sandal]

Delete save start over is all i can think. Or a new map

[cyan fern]

I'v done it

[polar sandal]

Game broke uninstall

[cyan fern]

FUCK , seriously ????????

[polar sandal]

I mean. Youve tried everything i know to do and you said none of it works so.

Idk what else to say lol

[cyan fern]

Ok thanks

[polar sandal]

What is this on beacon about right click the create spawn tab and select convert creature spawn to... Something something

Were trying to add maewings to the center, which is obviously not native. But when he adds the spawn they dont.

I dont have a pc so idk what hes on about

[obtuse rover]

Does anyone know how i can transfer all my dinos to other maps?

In single player

[tranquil rapids]

don't you just go to an obelisk and upload the dino?

[west robin]

coould i take a 135 alpha rex with my own 38 health (10k health) 37 melee (340%) rex?

[obtuse rover]

It has a dino limit

20

[plain stag]

Upload them with cryopods to ark data and the upload creatures tab.

[obtuse rover]

Then i still have limit
Nvm i got it fixed by changing the configs

Now i can transfer 300 dinos

[digital reef]

How can I fix when I’m trying to transfer my character to a different map but when I’m trying to find the server I want to go in the obelisk I can’t find it even tho I market it as favourite pls help

[soft burrow]

it's either bugged and you need to refresh or it's just down (the server)
if the server is the problem, wait for a bit

[obtuse rover]

Why cant i roll back my sp save

I replace it but it loads the same thing😭

[soft burrow]

huh? explain yourself

oooooo, you want to play an older save?

[obtuse rover]

Yea

[soft burrow]

umm

[obtuse rover]

I replace the save but it brings the same thing outta nowhere

Weird

[soft burrow]

i am sorry to say but i don't know how to do that
tho, you said you replaced it

maybe you copied the same save and you are replacing the current save with the current save? <:)

[obtuse rover]

No

[soft burrow]

that's all i can think of

[obtuse rover]

I did a transfer and after that the rolling back method doesnt work

[soft burrow]

welp, i don't know how to help, i'm sorry 😔

[obtuse rover]

Maybe its meant to stop duping

[soft burrow]

probably

but i don't think is that

[obtuse rover]

Idk but who tf cares about duping in single player

And im not doing it

I think i made a big mistake by just saving island.ark

I should have backed up all the save files

Now i get the map and dinos and my base back but its not mine

[naive dust]

Oh easy fix

Cheat givealltome

Wait. Cheat giveallstructure

[obtuse rover]

Oh god i thought i had to do it all again

[naive dust]

No. If the structures and tames are there you can recover it all with just a few commands

[obtuse rover]

Yea just did it tnx

[plush berry]

So I died and then I died like 4 more times. Does my first death box still stay

[naive dust]

Yeah. The green beacon that marks it may go away but the actual bag with your items will remain for as long as your death bag timer lasts no matter how many times you die.

[molten falcon]

lol when i saw bobs with probs i thought dino boabs

[obtuse folio]

Whats the first boss i should fight on fjordur

[cyan echo]

I am having a rex baby. I have it next to an air conditioner, but it has gone down to 9.5 health. Will this lower the level/mutations? Is there a way to heal the egg?

Please feel free to ping

[plain stag]

Pick up the egg. Add more ac units. If they are normal ac units, you'll need 12-14.

[cyan echo]

12-14? It didn't say it was too hot, or too cold.

[plain stag]

Was it a fertilized rex egg

[cyan echo]

Yeah

[plain stag]

The health goes down if it is not the correct temperature.

There is not a way to heal the egg unless you've got a modded creature that can, like the moa from animals of atlas.

[cyan echo]

Yeah, we're running completely vanilla. I wonder if the temp changed, when it got dark, while we were taming other critters. I guess I'll have to watch it better next time

[plain stag]

It most likely did.

[cyan echo]

Alright then, next time I want rex babies, I'll set time out of my day

[plush berry]

Is there any way to increase decay time of your loot boxes when you die

I have like 5 min remaining in mine and it’s in the swamp and I’m holding a shit ton of valuables

A lot of 250 rex 😭😭😭😭

[plain stag]

More than 1 ac will help. Ac units automatically change temp.

[plain stag]

Under advanced somewhere iirc

[sage phoenix]

well the normal is 2 hours if you havent changed anything

[plush berry]

No it’s 20 min in single player

Isn’t it ???????

[plush berry]

Is it only for servers or single player 2

[sage phoenix]

mine is 2 hours without changing anything so i am guessing thats the norm

[plush berry]

R u single player

[sage phoenix]

yes

[plush berry]

Hmmmmmm this is so co fusing cause when I looked it up it says 20 but u wonder if there is a settings that increases it

[rocky coral]

It's usually 30min bag decay
U can change the settings tho

[plush berry]

How

That’s all I want to do lol

[digital reef]

If I’m in a small tribe server and I got some stuff and dinos I want to transfer to a crossark server will it work or not?

[rocky coral]

Idk man, look at your Singleplayer settings before loading map in

[digital reef]

If I’m in a small tribe server and I got some stuff and dinos I want to transfer to a crossark server will it work or not?

[plain stag]

It's under the advanced tab I'm pretty sure.

[rocky coral]

Small tribe and crossark are separate clusters so no

Also official servers shutting down September 30th

[digital reef]

What about crossark and the island

[digital reef]

Forever or what?

[rocky coral]

Yes... Offical servers shutting down September 30th
U can play single player or unofficials

It's cause new ark game coming out

[digital reef]

How do u know tho did they announce it and if yes where

[red olive]

They announced it like a year ago

[digital reef]

Oh shit

[rocky coral]

Few months back they said

[red olive]

It got a solid date a few months ago

But official was always going to end

[digital reef]

Cuz I just play with my friend and I got ark on steam and he got it on epic and we want to play together and whenever we host non deticated we can’t join each other

[red olive]

Get a refund if you can, and wait until October for asa

[rocky coral]

It helps if the steam friend is the host

And u can't play with mods
Join using host ip

[sage phoenix]

october 2024*

[digital reef]

I’m the steam user and it’s without mods

[digital reef]

How can I find the ip

[red olive]

2023

[sage phoenix]

isnt it in 2024?

[digital reef]

If u actually somehow help me and it works I can pay u cash app

[rocky coral]

#unofficial-setup-help look at pinned messages

[sage phoenix]

it got delayed another year no?

[rocky coral]

It's supposed to be this October

But people joke it will get delayed

[sage phoenix]

oh okay

[digital reef]

Someone told me and I watched it but it’s tooo long

[red olive]

No. Asa is this year

[digital reef]

If u know how to do it I will pay u to help me do it

[rocky coral]

Idk
U needa know ur ip address, and port address

Then the next steps are easy

I can always join with epic to steam friends like this

[plush berry]

Is corpse decomposition time also tied to your death bag

[rocky coral]

He somehow has the ip to join

[rocky coral]

Yes
That's the setting I think

[plush berry]

Thanks B also I heard there was a thing where people where setting it higher and it never changed

Do you know anything about that

[digital reef]

@rocky coral check DMs

[dense kestrel]

are r gigas or normal gigas better?
