[median obsidian]

well.. they just nerfed the biggest command for helping increase fps

but yes. it will still help if you turn off fog and clouds

[unreal sable]

😭 damnn

[median obsidian]

I play on X and I haven't had any problems. then again I'm used to playing with low fps

first time I saw 60 frames I couldn't believe it.

[livid nimbus]

Sorry haven't been on in a day what's the command that got nerfed

[median obsidian]

Enable Grass

or something like that

Never used it personally

and it isn't "nerfed" it's gone

[livid nimbus]

NOOOOOOO
At least shadow cloud and fog still work

Turning shadows off really helps with frame rate dropping when looking at doors and gates as they close or open

[torpid grail]

Hello! The unofficial server I was playing on recently disappeared and I assume it’s because of the update. The server title said (no admin) and now I wonder how the server can be updated to be playable. Any help?

[median obsidian]

I can't turn off my shadow though. only other person on my server

[livid nimbus]

All lowercase letters?

[median obsidian]

lol no I'm saying if I turn off shadows I will be lonely

it was a bad joke.

well mostly not a joke.

[livid nimbus]

Oh 😂

[livid nimbus]

Oh 😳😮😞😢

Oh good news I'll always be there for you even if you don't see me just know I'm there

[median obsidian]

thanks friend

I'll always have my argys.

and my snail farm

[livid nimbus]

Snails are great honestly

[median obsidian]

unless you forget to spay them before your christmas vacation

230 fking snails I don't know what to do with

I can't afford to keep them they will just starve one by one

[livid nimbus]

Oh God that's a lot of fricken snails

I gotta go to bed goodnight buggy

[median obsidian]

there were so many of them I couldn't see the floor in my house

GN

[tulip cape]

That's not official server right?

Right...?

[median obsidian]

[tulip cape]

[median obsidian]

[edgy plover]

[brazen shadow]

So I'm really new to Ark and I want to know why my items names stopped showing in the inventory and why recipes stopped showing in the crafting thing

Any help?

[glad thunder]

In ur inventory there is something called tooltips under crafting

turn it on

[swift hazel]

Default character name used to be “Bob” and it became synonymous with “new player” in Ark. so if you’re a Bob you’re new to the game

[sage lance]

[brazen shadow]

What is SOTF

[sterile meadow]

survival of the fitest

[brazen shadow]

Okay

[sterile meadow]

its not funn if you die and lose the game if you are stuck and cant move

[frail lance]

its fun how water tames just die all the time if they follow you close to the ocean surface. Such a joy

[brazen shadow]

Yeah I haven't moved from the island and I've barely left the safest area

I started playing 4 days ago

[sterile meadow]

[full zinc]

does anyone know if theres anything i can change in the ini or settings to make cryopods work how they did in ASE? I hate how they work now and would also prefer to get rid of cryo sickness if possible

[clever solstice]

How soon after an arkpoc wipe do the servers start back up again?

[lean arch]

[deft pewter]

why cant i see the questions channel?

wait nvm this is it right?

i need help from someone please

So i have been playing on primitive plus not knowing much about it for the past days now. I realized today why there is no longneck and why so many engrams were missing. I am wondering how i can keep all my progress and dinos and builds, when switching to normal ark so i can have those engrams. If anyone knows anything about this, please help me

[stable leaf]

Sadly you can’t. Gonna have to make a new character

[deft pewter]

It lets me download my survivor but not builds and dinos though

😭

can i maybe upload dinos and items?

from primitive

Anyone know?

[velvet scaffold]

nope, server owner needs to do that manually, most just set say 1.5x all time, so it evens out

[wicked solar]

are official server down or sum?

[errant egret]

Can we disable the cryopod deployment timer?

[hushed kayak]

Got a friend who tried everything we could think of (relogging to Steam, validate files, download the Winter Wonderland mod and install it manually, restart computer, update drivers) and WW is downloading 19-20% on official/unofficial servers before quitting the download.

Ergo, he can't play. Any suggestions?

[deft pewter]

Can you upload dinos and items from primitive plus singleplayer and download them at an obelisk on normal ark singleplayer like you can with your survivor?

like basically transferring dinos from crystal isles to another crystal isles

kinda

if anyone know anything about this though

i dont

[inner carbon]

This new cryopod requirement shit is so stupid

[slate minnow]

No Prim+ is super broken

[deft pewter]

what

Why does Hln delete

my emojis

[slate minnow]

HLNA doesn’t delete any emojis 🗿

[deft pewter]

HLNA is kinda.. 😉

But

Why is primitive plus so broken and has been for like 7 years

And why does it take like 7 min to join a singleplayer with primitive plus

i Love this game

[slate minnow]

Because Prim+ is officially abandoned. WC doesn’t recommend you play it. There’s tons more to do in ASE

[deft pewter]

They dont reccoment it?

ah

ok but thanks

i think i can glitch my stuff to a ASE single player

[sly sleet]

yo how do you get carcha dossier ?

[deft pewter]

I d k

[slate minnow]

Tame one

[sly sleet]

kk thx

[deft pewter]

Why do people not use bio toxin?

its so awesome

[fallen ember]

anyone else have to uninstall and reinstalol the game every time theres an update?

[narrow sage]

luckilly no

but I'm cursed with a gazillion crashes and I feel like i've tried everything

[slate minnow]

Yeah its frustrating ngl

Its very random and has no definite cause

So it’s impossible to fix as an end user

[narrow sage]

Yup, and I see a lot of people with 4090's have the same issues. Especially the "device hung/Device lost" crash

[deft pewter]

4090..

i have question:

Is it possible to use soul traps with the mod for it on ark primitive plus, soul trap your Crystal wyvern, and put it in ark data. After doing that is it possible to play normal ark with that mod and retrieve my soul ball with crystal wyvern? i am asking this since there are no cryo pods in primitive plus

[tepid vale]

Does anyone know when the server is interoperable?

[deft pewter]

I gotta know cause its a max level wyvern

[slate minnow]

Yeah probably

U can export souls separately as well

[deft pewter]

Thanks so much ill try it

these tropical crystal wyverns are so majestic

is the mod dino storage 2? i forgot since long time since i used

ill just try

nvn instantly crashed

[thorny stone]

how do i get the event chibis in ascended from turkey trials and winter wonderland?

[fallen ember]

i have a huge issue n

someone please help

[deft pewter]

What issue?

[fallen ember]

everytime i have an update it makes me install the whole game again, why is this happening?

[velvet scaffold]

collect the stuff, craft them in smithy

[deft pewter]

sorry idk

i saw a tiktok a guy downloaded 3 scorched earth and couldnt play it

like the game 3 times with the map

and couldnt

[velvet scaffold]

it always does this, the update file patches over the entire game files

[fallen ember]

so everyone always has to re-install the entire game each time?

[astral tinsel]

Guys why isn’t my doedicurus harvesting stones when I destroy a rock

[velvet scaffold]

yea, it downloads say 1 gb update, then it patches it over the game files, its why they say it needs ssd i think , so that it happens faster

[thorny stone]

But is it just a chance of getting it by crafting the rare chibi or something?

[velvet scaffold]

yea all the chibi are rng

[fallen ember]

it always stops on 2% after downloading and says files are missing so i have to redownload the entire game

[high garden]

Its not install but more like file validation

Oh wow nvm

[fallen ember]

but this is with every update consistently

anyone please! its really getting to me how annoying it is

[velvet scaffold]

did you try verifying files?

[fallen ember]

yes

[deft pewter]

i play ASE. Why does it crash while loading when im only using dino storage mod on primitive plus. ITS ANNOYING

[velvet scaffold]

delete the game from steam, delete the folder its stored in? then install fresh? be AWARE it wipes you single player data if you play that mode

[sage ether]

Does anyone know if rhynignatha taming counts towards master zoologist achievement? no matter how many we tame we are not getting the check on the dossier for it

[velvet scaffold]

primitive plus is a garbage old game mode they gave up trying to fix years ago, suprised a cryo mod even works on it

[timber moss]

How do you do the mammoth stomp attack on console to collect wood

[brazen python]

Whatever your jump button is

[stable spade]

how to get chibis

[slate minnow]

Because primitive+ is a total conversion, mods don’t work with total conversions

[brazen python]

RC gift drops only

[stable spade]

how do i get it ?

[brazen python]

Chase his slegh at night and get them

[stable spade]

thx

[prisma kestrel]

I’m having random bug randomly, sarco randomly not dealing damage(was fine before), but my other creatures are fine.. not sure how to fix

[finite mango]

Anyone know if there will be a fix for the water blur on ASA? When you go out of the water you get the most bizarre UW screen and you can see nothing

[prisma kestrel]

not damaging when I’m on it I meant

[keen fossil]

Any reason why 2 out of the 6 brontos I had out are adults and the rest are adults? We have boosted stats and ran the server all night and for some reason only 2 of the baby brontos out of 6 are adults and the rest are still juvinile (23%)

[velvet scaffold]

did the server rates get changed at some point? sounds like the ones that are slow growing were on an old setting

[keen fossil]

Rates werent adjusted at all and all of them were hatched at the same time

Its not that big a deal its just weird that only 2 matured overnight and not the others that were hatched at the same time

[velvet scaffold]

hatching at same time doesnt matter. baby mature speed goes go by when they were produced but if rates never changed then i dunno what issue is

[keen fossil]

Yeah its just odd, unless for some reason this latest patch messed the rates up somehow but as far as I can tell it looks fine

[velvet scaffold]

sometimes when adding the event mods on nitrado servers, it changes a setting in general that activates evnt rates

[keen fossil]

We havent installed any event mods

[velvet scaffold]

unsure then sry, thats an odd one

[keen fossil]

Its not that big a deal its just the first time this has happened, its really weird lol

[velvet scaffold]

yea ive only ever seen it when rates got changed

[keen fossil]

Yeah its super weird

[deft pewter]

Anyone i need help please:

i cant join any singleplayer in ASE primitive plus with any mods. I cannot get cryopods. I cannot upload my crystal wyvern since you cannot download crystal wyverns. WHAT DO I DO?!?

I really need that crystal wyvern. REALLY

So please help if you have any ideas

[obsidian bronze]

did anyone get back to you on a fix for this? also having these issues that only a relog fixes

[static bay]

guys is there anything like auto run?

flying with my slow argy takes so long

[simple linden]

are you playing singleplayer?

Did wildcard really take away the whole pipe system?

[uncut socket]

it's wireless water

[simple linden]

what if im far away?

[uncut socket]

place water tanks so their radius overlaps, you should see a blue arrow as you place it

[simple linden]

water tanks are like the astroneer oxygen things?

[uncut socket]

uh i guess? never played that

[brazen python]

Yes. Essentially

[blissful finch]

is anyone else getting kicked out of the server list almost immediatly?

[brazen python]

You also don't need to string the tank in the first place

[simple linden]

does metal have any advantages over stone?

[brazen python]

Island rains enough that two water tanks will provide infinite water

[lean gate]

Anyone else not showing ANY servers after todays update

[brazen python]

They look better imo

[simple linden]

ok

[lean gate]

I posted that a fewe minutes ago but bc it has a comment critiquing wildcard it wouldn't let it post.

[barren drum]

Yes, having this problem right now. Getting kicked out of the server list as well after a few seconds

[brazen python]

Seriously: don't chain tanks on island. Build a few to suit what you think looks cool and place them in open air. Infinite water

[blissful finch]

really you too?

[barren drum]

Yeah. I click on the server list, no servers shown, and then a few seconds later im forced to the home menu lol

[abstract wigeon]

Same problem here ....

[brazen python]

You mean "had an extra rude comment"

[blissful finch]

wow a lot of people are having this problem ig, glad its not a me problem

[inland gazelle]

After loading up single player to test stuff out it won't let me play any official servers or dedicated servers says I must be singed in and that I'm offline even though I am very much online. Restarting the game don't fix it, does anyone else know how to fix this

[lean gate]

You know what sucks even worse is devs are on holiday so until then anyone with this issue is screwed out of playing unless one downgrades their update.

[blissful finch]

bruh

[abstract wigeon]

They should fix it they just posted this update lol

[blissful finch]

ikr

or atleast revert the update

[abstract wigeon]

Something 🤷‍♀️

[polar remnant]

[blissful finch]

i managed to load into a server like 10 minutes ago and play for like 10 minutes, but then i found out it was the wrong server so i went to switch servers and the problem started

[zinc rose]

if any1 finds out how to fix it and join unoffical servers psl tell me im gonna try to find a fix 😭

[abstract wigeon]

Yup didn't work to verify lol

[real panther]

anyone else no sessions found after joining single player?

[blissful finch]

huh?

[next plaza]

you broke everyones servers

keep deleting but its true

[blissful finch]

their activly deleting all the messages kekw

[next plaza]

yeah they are

[abstract wigeon]

Why is it deleting my words

[next plaza]

because theyre covering up nitro bad service

[blissful finch]

the mods are being discord mods

[abstract wigeon]

😄

[velvet scaffold]

99% sure the server that hosts the server listings has just gone down, no one can find a server atm lolz

[next plaza]

not really I pay for a server, the host company is shyte

[abstract wigeon]

If they would've let us use GPortal 🤷‍♀️

[next plaza]

they delete that its shocking

[barren drum]

Yea thats what im thinking too, since it was apparently working for people earlier post-update

[velvet scaffold]

it was working 10 mins ago, now not, i had the update

[blissful finch]

same here

joined a server and left and couldnt rejoin

[barren drum]

Man i chose the perfect time to try and start playing, smh

[abstract wigeon]

The servers updated too but Nitrado is not a fan of updates on time

[blissful finch]

does nitrado do offi?

[next plaza]

hey they didnt delete your post

[abstract wigeon]

I think so

They started using Nitrado back in ASE I believe

[next plaza]

Funny you pay for a service yet cant complain about the company on here

[exotic badger]

clowntrado

[abstract wigeon]

^^

[exotic badger]

🤡

[lean gate]

that's what I was getting at when I was called rude for critiquing the situation.

[next plaza]

impartial moderation is fine but im afraid you cant blanket ban people posting about it

[exotic badger]

When you prefer the money than your game 😄

GG wildcard best decision

[errant seal]

What’s going on?

[fathom grotto]

v33.15 (server and client) - 12/20/2023 - Minor version for servers and clients they dropped the patch today two days ago....ark devs are time travelers

[abstract wigeon]

They have to be told and we have to be heard... Snailgames needs to pay a debt and knows they screwed up there

[next plaza]

well whoever was deleting messages has stopped

[abstract wigeon]

Seems like it lol

[next plaza]

wasnt very clever of them as literally nothing posted was against terms

[abstract wigeon]

I have to say though the holiday stuff has been fun ... just wish I could get back in to play it lol

[fathom scarab]

whats going on with my ark? no servers are coming up and after like 7 seconds the "game menu" just closes

[lean gate]

weird we can't post screenshots in here. I've been screenshotting, I'd post the screenshot of what I originally said but I can't. It was super mild.

[brisk geyser]

im getting this too

[next plaza]

everyone is

[abstract wigeon]

Welcome to our dilemma 😄

[fathom scarab]

thank god im not alone, i thought i got banned because my game crashed mid SOTF match

[molten falcon]

[frank shard]

[abstract wigeon]

Ced — Today at 3:45 PM
We're monitoring various network issues related to the Epic Online Service outage:

[simple linden]

the servers are unreliable, thats why I play singleplayer

[lean gate]

still completely out

[abstract wigeon]

Found that in announcements 😛

[wheat stone]

YEP!!! I apparently need to sign in too

[fathom scarab]

All service out ? 😂

[fathom scarab]

no i mean writing as we speak, not a 8 minute old message

[regal kiln]

had to relog my game auto updated something small on steam now i cant log back in shows no servers avail and i get kicked back to home screen

[abstract wigeon]

My husband found some lol

[fathom scarab]

never in 100 years did i think that there would be a server outage because of Epic Games

but hey!

[abstract wigeon]

For some more context, ARK: Survival Ascended using Epic Online Services as the software used to deliver cross-platform services and it's how you connect to the online version of the game, regardless of the platform you play on. So even if you're on Steam, Xbox, or PlayStation, you're going through Epic Online Services (it's developed by the same team that created Unreal Engine 5, the engine that ASA is developed from).

When there is an EOS outage, it could cause issues such as login/connection issues. We're currently waiting for Epic to resolve the problem and investigating if there are any additional steps we have to take to resolve the connection problems. We'll keep you posted if there are any further updates, and you can also follow Epic's progress on the problem with the above link.

[static bay]

no

[simple linden]

then idk

[abstract wigeon]

This is what is in announcements

[cloud wasp]

uh i just got on ark and i just now can't go to the "join server" menu, everytime i click it it just sends me back to menu. is there a fix to this?

[storm vine]

yo gamers did they fix the tether distance

[oak yarrow]

see announcements. Epic has to fix something we never knew was existing...

[cloud wasp]

alr

[storm vine]

did they fix the tether distance

did they fix the tether distance

[deft pewter]

idk

[cloud wasp]

don't you think that if someone knew they would answer you?

[crisp garden]

does any1 know how to fix freezing like 5 seconds into loading on a server then the only way to close ark is restarting your pc havent been able to play sotf for over 5 hours

[deft pewter]

sons of the forest

[crisp garden]

been a problem since i got the game

[wind whale]

server list works again 🙂

[minor arch]

does anyone also have a problem with cryoing baby rexes?

[deft pewter]

Someone please explain how to transfer a dino from primitive plus ASE to normal ASE singleplayer ( i am hurting)

[crisp garden]

they might be desynched whistle them around for a second i had a problem cryoing my argy bc it was desynched

[abstract wigeon]

IM IN

[minor arch]

ive already tryed but its still not working ... i guess babyrex have problems with their hitbox or something like that

[deft pewter]

Please🙏🙏

Nobody knows

😮‍💨😭😭

[tulip marsh]

I don't believe you can mate

[keen mist]

I can’t imprint my baby dino’s, is there a fix for it?
Game is acting like my character isn’t linked to the baby.

[lean gate]

I think the same interchangibly when I see both Titles lol

[wind whale]

if its singleplayer / unofficial you can try to work around it with cheat SetImprintQuality 1

[keen mist]

Nah it’s on official servers.
Crypod last night, set them out today. Timer came up for imprint but now it’s as if the baby isn’t mine.

[deft pewter]

thanks for telling me at least😘

[plain stag]

Make sure to take venting and complaints to another channel. This channel is only for ingame help.

[lean gate]

that actually makes sense. Understood lol

[deft pewter]

Can i ask one thing, sorry for saying that btw

[near thistle]

I just bought a ark ascended server from nitardo but now it won’t show up when I type in the server name

[plain stag]

As long as its ingame help, yes.

[near thistle]

Anyone have any idea or fixes

[plain stag]

#unofficial-setup-help probably can help.

[near thistle]

Thank you

[mighty violet]

Is there a way to remove the grayscale coloring for certain caves? Can’t see the colors of my tusos…

[plain stag]

Not that I know of, it's mildly annoying

Going towards the tek cave just to grab the note in front of the door causes it too

[mighty violet]

I had it fixed for one night with the illumination setting but it reverted the following day.

[deft pewter]

Ok SO. I have a max level tamed crystal wyvern on singleplayer AS Evolved Primitive plus crystal isles ok. I want to know if there is ANY way of transferring that dino to another singleplayer on NORMAL ark instead of primitive plus

[mighty violet]

Yaaaa that’s a problem as well 😂

[plain stag]

Nope. Primitive Plus is completely separate.

[deft pewter]

😭

Thank for help though

[plain stag]

Respawn it in

[deft pewter]

How

[plain stag]

Does increasing illumination again do anything?

[deft pewter]

I mean like THAT wyvern i dont wanna spawn in a random one

[plain stag]

Look for the spawnexact command on https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki

[mighty violet]

Nope, maybe setting low closing the game, rebooting and changing it back up will fix it? 😂

I’m not trying to do all that work though

[deft pewter]

Okay thanks so much

[plain stag]

I have no idea tbh

[mighty violet]

I’ll try it tonight once I’m on and let you know I guess lol

[deft pewter]

@plain stag Hey if i spawn one in with commands, it will be a different wyvern than the one i had right? sorry for asking

just to be sure

[plain stag]

Yes.

[timber steppe]

Is there a command to spawn the krampus skin in single player?

[deft pewter]

ah ok im gonna tame a new one then

[thick mason]

where do i submit a bug report? think there might be an issue with a cryo sick dino thats imprint is up

[warm verge]

Where do you get chibi and krampus on official

[timber steppe]

Chibis are in presents dropped by raptor Claus and checked the pins to learn how to get the krampus skin

[warm verge]

Thx

[timber steppe]

Seems hard AF to get the skin tho

[fickle shard]

My friend (playing on steam) is having an issue where everytime he logs back onto ark any map progress he has made for uncovering the map is not saved and it is as if he has not explored, is anyone else having this issue, or know of a fix?

[proven merlin]

Does anyone know the command to transfer buildings and such from one tribe to the other?

[velvet scaffold]

takeallstructure

[plain stag]

#bug-reports

[velvet scaffold]

is this on a server or single player?

[fickle shard]

nitrado server

[proven merlin]

Is there a way to define a range of which structures would be taken?

[molten falcon]

Does anyone know if the single player save bug is fixed

[velvet scaffold]

you wud have to google that command, the one i gave takes all structures linked to the one you are looking at

[proven merlin]

aah

[deft pewter]

Is extinction ASE free?

[velvet scaffold]

he will need to delete his player data it prob got corrupted,
right click game in steam, manage, browse local files,
go to local files and , shootergame/saved/localprofiles/ wdelete the file in there named , Playerlocaldata.arkprofile

[deft pewter]

what is the bug?

[molten falcon]

The game doesn’t save so when you leave it goes back to where you were hours ago

[deft pewter]

oh

when did that glitch start

[molten falcon]

It’s so annoying I’ve lost hours of work because of it

[molten falcon]

Since the start of Xbox release

[deft pewter]

Oh

Yeah idk

[iron wyvern]

can someone help me, i am setting up a server and i wanna set the stats for the points we get on how much we put in to each point, where can i do that?

[molten falcon]

Can’t help you sorry

[fickle shard]

thanks.... do you know if this will reset his indivudual progress such as levelling, character creation etc. or just reset certain components?

[deft pewter]

hey i somehow uploaded and downloaded my crystal wyvern to normal ark. The stats are the same but it lost 9 levels and didnt lose any stats.. is this normal?

[velvet scaffold]

character level, etc is stored server side, he will just lose game settings

[fickle shard]

awesome... thanks!

[tardy geyser]

does anyone have a updated map with all the coords of the explorer notes trying to get them on pvp is already an issue in its self but The coords on the WIKI are in accurate as f

[deft pewter]

and i could dupe any crystal wyvern in primitive plus

wait i should say that in bug report

[twin jay]

When server transfers open will Asia servers be able to transfer to NA servers?

[tardy geyser]

i hope not

[velvet scaffold]

google ark server configuration, the settings are the same for asa as they are in ase, or you can try beaconapp, but i think engram control is only in the paid version, not the free one

[warped scarab]

anyone know why every update it does reserving space on steam takes hour just to update som small

[proven merlin]

So as long as it's on the same foundation it will claim everything?

[iron wyvern]

@velvet scaffold im trying to find it on nirtrado's settings and i cant figure it out

[velvet scaffold]

usually engram control is coded into the game.ini

not just a general setting

[wicked sage]

Help! The game keeps wiping my save and making me restart from character creation everytime I exit.

[velvet scaffold]

the command i gave, yes, anything linked to the piece you look at

[tender spruce]

Is auto looting allowed in ark, or is it against ToS?

[proven merlin]

I know for Rhynio hosts the hp drain is % based but is the food drain also % based?

[severe sonnet]

Your host dino will inevitably die from Rhynio impregnation. I am not sure if food drain % is relative unless I am misunderstanding what you mean?

[brazen python]

Food forces to zero and dino pretends to starve

[tardy geyser]

no no

[brazen python]

There is a known bug at the very end, where starvation can kill the host. Best to force-feed the last 30-60 secs

[tardy geyser]

theres a glitch its so annoying and takes one line of code to fix, all you need to do is make sure your force feeding the dino and as long as it has food it will die properly

wild card is fucking lazy and doesn't wanna fix this issue ever

[brazen python]

Wildcard is not lazy

[proven merlin]

Ye I was just wondering if the food drain is also % base cuz if it wasn't I was gonna lvl food to make it a lil less cumbersome

[brazen python]

Oh it's forced to zero

[tardy geyser]

this issue has been around since ase and your telling me that the bug should still be in the game?

[brazen python]

Bigger bugs to squash then the bug bug

[torpid prism]

Does ark poc have eu servers

[heady relic]

anyone elce not able to play sotf?

[frank shard]

is the server issue still happening on ps?

[tardy geyser]

should be fine on all platforms

[tardy geyser]

bro you can't even land on the side of the valcano without anti meshing but don't worry guys raptor claws is here

there needs to be more effort into fixing stupid shit

[brazen python]

Not the channel for complaints man. Give it a rest. No one cares

[tardy geyser]

yeah im a bob with a prob and the prob is snail games and wildcard lol

most likely snail games underfunding wildcard

[tardy geyser]

see your a player helping me understand what bigger bugs need to be squashed im asking you a question, anti mesh and the fact you can spend your time and dinos getting them impregnated and then losing them to a bug is fucking insane lol so tell me please

what bigger bugs need to be squashed

[brazen python]

Again, not the place man. I'm just looking out.

[fallow kite]

Anyone know why overseer wiped my inventory? I did it with friends and now i have 0 items on me and no dinos

[tardy geyser]

wildcard priortized the bug were people could pick shit up in pvp and fixed it before they added 2 lines of code to make sure your hours/days/weeks if you sacrificed a giga aren't wasted

[frail scarab]

When you're attempting to knock out a dino to tame, and some jerk on a giga walks over and eats it

[tardy geyser]

honestly did you transfer to another server or stay on the same server, the only thing that should have been wiped was your ele

[fallow kite]

nope same server my server isn't cluster atm

[velvet scaffold]

in asa thats how it is becuas ethe used old ase code , from before they patched that happening, dino get teleported the tek cave entrace

[tardy geyser]

unoffical, single player or offical?

[fallow kite]

Unofficial,

[fallow kite]

damn really? that sucks

[tardy geyser]

contact the admins of your offical server all you can do

[fallow kite]

I'm the admin, so that's why i think it's weird

[tardy geyser]

ive ran overseer 5 times now on pvp offical no issues all my stuff stayed on my body and everything else

[fallow kite]

but i'm not gonna spawn it in tho feels like the fun is gone then

Seems like a bug then on unofficial

[velvet scaffold]

yea, have to throw all your stuff on a dino after defeat him. it was like that in ase, then they changed it

[tardy geyser]

wait yall bring dinos to overseer?

[fallow kite]

Rex's

[tardy geyser]

we just sit on a quetz and chairs and whistle it through the cave and then we just hit right shift and shotgun it to death with tek chests

[fallow kite]

Guess they need to change it to on asa than lol

Oh u can fly in the tek cave?

[velvet scaffold]

nope, u can cheese it

[tardy geyser]

you can Whistle a quetz through

and then you can use tek suits in the arena

[brazen python]

Archoptrex and terror bird works great too

[tardy geyser]

yeah but when you got the whole small tribes server going in its better to just make a battle bus lol

legit only reason we tamed a quetz at all

[radiant locust]

I haven't played SP since Nov 28th did they ever fix the fatal errors in SP?

[tardy geyser]

who knows

#patch-notes get reading

[radiant locust]

well their patchnotes are so vague "fixed and exploit" fixed a crash" doesn't tell me anything

[tardy geyser]

yeah its so stupid why keep it a secret about what exploits they are fixing if they are fixed

[radiant locust]

I don't even know if they fixed dead bodies bags falling through the map I don't see anything in the patchnotes about that even

[tardy geyser]

unless they aren't completly fixed, like being able to god mode a whole ass base, but i do think they fixed the god mode with the camrea strat

[spark pine]

Anyone having issues with Xbox platform can’t see maps

[plain stag]

Mine works on series x, are you on xbox or win10?

[zinc rose]

why cant i see favorited servers anymore and do servers need to be updatged or somethign because i cannot find any of the servers i played on since the update

[spark pine]

Same

[plain stag]

Honestly, that favorites tab has been buggy as heck for me regardless of patchnotes.

[plain stag]

Try restarting/relogging?

[exotic flint]

Having some player crash as soon as they load into the server. Game just dashboards. All my mods are the same as the day I put it up and they’ve played it since I put it up. This started happening yesterday

[zinc rose]

it never worked for me but i thought maybe it would've gotten fixed in a update

[cloud wasp]

all yall builders out there, is there a setting or something to remove the "is obstructed" error when trying to place a gate when the gateway is even slightly in the ground?

posted this in #building-discussions but ig it fits in both of these channels

[errant seal]

I always have to chop away the rocks

[zinc rose]

yea just remove any rocks/trees in the area

[static bay]

what can i harvest with therizinos?

i need cement paste badly. i dont have much chitin or so yet

[errant seal]

Beaver dams

[uncut socket]

tame a megatherium and go for a trip through the swamp killing leeches
tame a frog and go into swamp cave if you have access to scuba/gas mask

[static bay]

where can i find megatheriums

[uncut socket]

redwoods, snow

[static bay]

thanks. is this therizino useful? its lvl 140 idk if the stats are good

[uncut socket]

its great for gathering hide, rare flowers and fiber

[red olive]

Theris are also really good for bosses

[static bay]

is every dino at lvl 150 with same stats

i mean lets say i find 2x theri

both same stats? cause i still dont understand that

[thorny stone]

Me and my gf wanna play together without tether on evolved and we’re on the series s and the series x but don’t know how to join each other

[thorny stone]

They aren’t the same, it all depends on where the game distributes points on each wild creature

[edgy plover]

anyone knows how to disable cryosickness in pvp

[coral terrace]

youll either have to rent a server or youll have to find a server that both of you can play on

anyone know how to do a dino wipe from the nitrado server panel?

[static bay]

so any way to check out if lets say it has to much food or so instead of useful stuff

[coral terrace]

currently the only way to determine a creatures stat without a doubt is the tek spyglass you get from killing the overseer

[west granite]

Dododex has a stat calc for wild dinos. Youll have to knock it out first to see the stats but once you plug those into the calc it will tell you how many points got distributed to each stat. Doesnt work with the post tame levels from taming bonus but will give you a good idea of where the stats are going.

[static bay]

ok thanks

and i finally have a frog do ineed to do the left or right click for cementing paste?

[west granite]

Either or. Just kill the little bugs.

The meganeura and titanomyrma or whatever they are called.

[static bay]

where can i find em

[dark maple]

when i give my dinos candy, will the effect only last for the event or forever?

• will they keep the colors when breeding?

[noble moss]

24 hours and no they dont keep the colors

Are normal spinos immune to radiation like aberrant ones?

[distant oriole]

why does my game crash every 5 minutes in SP i play split screen it used to be fine then randomly it started crashing alot im getting sick and tired of poor optimization no point in good graphics if you have to disable them for your FPS to be slightly less shit

[dapper veldt]

Is anybody getting 504 Gateway timeout on when they attempt to log into the Nitrado website?

[normal rivet]

Anyone have issues with sound going all robot like and laggy through their headset?
Doesn't do it with ase or any other games. Have to remove batteries on controller to get it to stop. Makes people in party sound laggy and robotic.
Assumed headset related, but it only happens with ark asa.
Have tried 3 different controllers and happens with all of them. Also removed the volume controller adapter from controller and still does it.
Don't have spare headset.

[severe glen]

yeah im playing on ps5 and it happens occasionaly, im pretty sure its a game issue not our headsets..

[normal rivet]

Thanks.
Somedays it doesn't happen at all and other days, it's a lot. Annoying af.

Anyone having issues with server nkt being capped and cannot join since update? Can't join on non crossways servers

Somebody stated that nitrado site is down right now.

Yup i am getting that time out trying to get in rn.

Hey I need help wanting to know my available space is 2gb on PS5 with no mods downloaded

[torn lichen]

@barren thicket how did you find where you see your space?

[barren thicket]

When you go to a server it'll show available space

[torn lichen]

Yeah but do know how much available space you have left and not the server?

Or is that how? @barren thicket

[atomic tide]

Why won’t my winter wonderland install and let me in

[clear glacier]

Why is the taming/breeding speed broken on unnofficial servers?

[barren thicket]

It'll show what you need to download for the server and what you have available

How do you make the text on items off on Xbox?

[grave forum]

Why is aberration surface still on fire? its nighttime and i still get damaged.

[velvet scaffold]

in inventory, right of left stick click in, cant rem which one off top my head

[worthy ginkgo]

It doesn't work idk why

That's what I thought too

[velvet scaffold]

mmm maybe they changed it then, there was also a toggle at top of inventory, show item names i think, something like that

[mystic karma]

so has anyone seen the yetis or reindeer or anything as far as i can tell noone on my server has seen them and for some reason the devs made it so that only one person can grab the presents so the ones with the fast flyers can outrun everyone so they are the only ones that really get anything

[worthy ginkgo]

That's for tool tips not the name

[velvet scaffold]

seem to rem the name one wa sup there too, u might be right though

check in the actual game settings, maybe i found it there, so dam many of them

[worthy ginkgo]

I was able to turn it off in a different sever a sotf one actually and it's off now on the other one so we good

Are hair dyes not working correctly?

omfg im struggling with cementing paste

i got a stupid frog but still nothing. searching for beavers but everywhere ppl built stuff

people blocked all the beaver spaqwns on my server too

that sucks cause im a noob and idk which dino helps with what or so

[prisma perch]

if this isn't the right place, kindly point me in the right direction; Is there a mod currently, that will list the stats of the eggs prior to hatching? I've looked around but haven't had much luck finding stuff with the search tools available.

Everywhere it say hesperonis lays an egg after eating 5 fish but through testing in creative I've only managed them to lay eggs by eat anywhere from 6-13 fish with no correlation to quality of fish i.e. size/type.

When using a Thylo to kill a titan, do bleeds stack? The Titan had 12k health and I hit it twice in quick succession then it died.

Anyone having trouble with beds? I select a bed to spawn on and instead I wake up somewhere random. Have tried having a tribe mate place a new bed and still no luck.

[worn bluff]

Just state the issue

all my ammo engrams got wiped after the update, now I cant re learn them, same issue for tribemates on different platforms, is there a solution to this?

[worn bluff]

Are you using any mods on the server?

[plain pelican]

Is there a way to turn off cryo sickness on unofficial pvp yet?

[fallen ember]

no new mods, just ark additions since day 1

[slate minnow]

Have you tried...dying and respawning?

[fallen ember]

yeah even all reinstalled the game too

[slate minnow]

Likely just corrupted character data then

[fallen ember]

will try the tonic but it seems to just be ammo that effected everyone

[errant seal]

Did you try mindwipe tonic?

[slate minnow]

You can try replacing the character files if you have an older save

[worn bluff]

Not that we're aware of, they've only listed three options you can add to the Ini files, none seem to relate to cryosickness. Could check if there was an ini option for ASE and try that.

[plain pelican]

Are selcting spawn at x bed or just clicking the bed and respawn button?

[plain pelican]

Thanks mate, there wasn't but I was hoping they would fix that in ASA

[clever solstice]

I’ve tried both. Every time it dumps me onto a random beach.

[plain pelican]

Damn, that is really annoying

[worn bluff]

You could checkout some of the cryopod/cryoball mods to use as an alternative. I think on ASE some of them had settings for Cryo on or off, so might find the same thing for ASA.

@plain pelican Pelayori's Cryo Storage (Crossplay!) Looks like it may have that settings;

"INI Settings (GameUserSettings.ini)

[Cryopods]
DisableCryoSickness=false"

[plain pelican]

Thanks mate, we'll give that a crack

[worn bluff]

Most welcome, good luck

[errant seal]

Any luck?

[fallen ember]

no nothing

feel like ive tried it all

[frail condor]

Does anyone know if the inventory/storage crashes still happen often after the recent large patch? Also, is non-dedicated tethering fixed?

[worn bluff]

That's often fixable by turning ON 'Disable Menu Transitions', presume you've tried that but worth checking in case not.

[frail condor]

Yeah I have been trying all of the work arounds since launch.

[worn bluff]

Ah, then sorry I don't know, it's not something everyone experiences, I've not heard any specific mention of it being fixed, though they did list some generic 'crash fixes', so could be

"Fixed multiple server crashes
Fixed multiple client crashes"

[clear flax]

Yeah I keep having crashes whenever I open item inventories like forges, smithies and it is driving me insane

[frail condor]

I have been waiting since launch for them to fix it. I was hoping it would get fixed after they launched the game on both consoles (money...I get it), but so far it still remains as bad as ever.

[cinder moss]

Anyone knows why the discord overlay is not working? I have it configured in a way that people appear on my top left when they talk but it doesn’t work in ark, any ideas?

[silent dagger]

does the game patch ridiculously slow on Steam for anyone else? Winter Wonderland took minutes to download but 4 hours to patch...and now todays patch is doing the same thing

[lofty hazel]

Thats normal for ark

[silent dagger]

actually i fixed it just by pausing the patch and then starting again

went from 5MB/s write speed to 200MB/s

so the 4 hour patch is now 4 minutes

🤷

[lofty hazel]

Ah lucky lol. If you have a lower end pc or lower wifi it can take hours.

[silent dagger]

yeh i mean i thought it was Ark as well

but seems its actually Steam being weird

[lofty hazel]

Thats good ark doesnt do anything to minimize storage so everything takes long time lol.

Playing ASA, my game usually runs fine but I'm getting extreme frame drops when looking at my Tek Replicator. Is anyone else experiencing this?

Like, the game turns into a slideshow when the replicator is in frame, but runs perfectly smooth everywhere else

Or... maybe not the replicator. I removed it and I'm still getting frame drops when looking at the spot it used to be

I think it may have been chibis on display stands. I have a Raptor Claus, Hyaenodeer, and Otter chibi on display the floor above the replicator and it fixed it when I removed them from display. Didn't get laggy when I put them back though, so I'm still unsure

[paper rampart]

anyone seeing issue poding up wild tames, and baby dinos?

[solar canyon]

I hit the take all button on a loot drop and it took my inventory and disappeared wtf

[barren thicket]

Hey so are there any talks about expanding the mods space available on console from 10gb to higher? Or will they be implementing a feature to disable certain mods you've installed for active ones you want

[hexed flax]

my impregnated bronto got all the way down to zero on the timer and just died instead of popping a bug

[lofty hazel]

@hexed flax did you let the food get down too low before it died?

[hexed flax]

no! it was perfectly sinced

[lofty hazel]

@barren thicket no one here is going to know anything like that unless they put it in the crunch

[hexed flax]

it reached 0 and just

died

[olive ermine]

always dropp a cake for the last few seconds inside

[hexed flax]

i was thinking of doing that but it seemed perfectly fine

[barren thicket]

Well dam lol

[coarse vine]

Till it wasn't.

[lofty hazel]

How was the ping?

[hexed flax]

we've had some spikes

but it didnt seem bad at that moment

im just pissed... it was a really good one :/

[lofty hazel]

Yeah weird. We maxed out food before bug is born everytime before its born.

So far never had an issue

But we have low ping.

[hexed flax]

yeah i guess we should've used a veggie cake but the health seemed normal... ill find another one i guess and be more careful

[lofty hazel]

If your able carcha are much better to use

[torn owl]

how the f do you get krampus skin

[fading sorrel]

Do omnivores gain benefits from eating veggie cake? I've never used them with megatherium before but I'm wondering if I should

[torn owl]

yes

[fading sorrel]

Request a gift from Raptor Claus at the fireplace, then get kill harmless creatures or babies to lower your standing in Raptor Claus's eyes. When he gives you your "gift" at midnight, there's a chance to include the skin. I got it on my second try

[torn owl]

tytyty

2 days i been asking fkin hell

[fading sorrel]

I looked it up online and saw two sources saying omnivores eat the cake but gain no benefits. You're certain they do?

[torn owl]

100%

[shut briar]

Anyone noticed less dinos spawning on unofficial?

[torn owl]

i use them for bosses megatheriums

[torn owl]

no.

i own a server and its been fine.

[shut briar]

Wow mine seems so empty suddenly

[torn owl]

restart dino wipe.

but thats weird. unless ur modded then who the f knows

if you got any mods then its that. easy fix

[paper rampart]

how do u get carch preg? bc we used 9 today and it wouldnt

[lofty hazel]

@paper rampart same as the bronto

[paper rampart]

wow ive tried in past and it never worked

do you use a trap?

[fading mantle]

good morning!

it may be a stupid question, how do you guys get rid of unneeded offsprings while breeding on PvE, since they don't get any dmg?

[lofty hazel]

The whole thing is kinda jank tbh half the time bronto doesnt even work right

@fading mantle claim and throw them in a corner they die from starving

[fading sorrel]

I've gone ahead and tested the veggie cake with megatheriums by shooting them to below the threshold and watching their health while I give them a cake and comparing that to the same with a stego and I'm sorry to say I think you've been wasting your cakes. Megatheriums gain no healing from it, though they do eat them

[paper rampart]

megatheriums dont heal from cakes

[lofty hazel]

Giga will also eat cakes lol

[fading mantle]

so what you're basically saying is, that PvP is more "human" in handling these kinda situations? 😄

[lofty hazel]

@fading mantle lol unfortunatly. You can kill them with weapons or tools though lol

[torn owl]

thank youfor your service

[fading mantle]

i tried it yesterday with claimed and unclaimed and they didn't get any damage at all. thaty why we set our server back to pvp again. Anyway. PvP it is then and cryosicknees gives a nice 6 minute break before doing stuff again 😄

[lofty hazel]

Oooh do friendly fire

@fading mantle

I thought you were on official. They have friendly fire enabled

[torn owl]

aye pve without friendly fire eneabled is really bad idea

[lofty hazel]

Now i do know a fun fast way to kill dino but you need compartments lol

[fading mantle]

na its an unofficial 🙂 so, if thats enabled, i have to end them myself and cant use a dino, no?

[torn owl]

lol

[jade surge]

Does anyone know of any good unofficial pvp servers?

[lofty hazel]

@fading mantle yeah dino wont damage other than special AI attacks like lightening wyvern

Basilisk lighting wyvern and magma are the ones i have used.

You can also use any tek saddle

[torn owl]

guys where the fuck does this go cuz i can tget it to work. and im sure im not putting it in the right area, i froget where i had it in ASE

NPCReplacements=(FromClassName="Ichthyornis_Character_BP_C",ToClassName="Dodo_Character_BP_C")
NPCReplacements=(FromClassName="Pegomastax_Character_BP_C",ToClassName="Dodo_Character_BP_C")

[fading mantle]

ok. thats a bummer. need them goo exp babies apparently give. your help is really much appreciated! I think dealing with cry sickness ain't that bad, considering what we have to give up if we enable PvE 😄

[torn owl]

u can turn sickness off.

[fading mantle]

not on PvP servers apparently, or it mysteriously got changed in the lkast couple of hours. 😦

[torn owl]

im literally looking at the setting right now and had to double check incase i was wrong

what setting are you trying to find? maybe u rlooking for wrong thing

[fading mantle]

would you please enlighten me, so my bois wont annoy me anymore :D.

For full conbtext for you and my hopes wont get hyped up:

We have an unnofficial PvP server and are trying to get rid of cryosickness.

[torn owl]

cryopod nerf duration. put it to 0

[fading mantle]

tried that. that setting is in gus.ini and comes first, however, it changed nothing 😦

[torn owl]

have you changed it via the setting in nitrado, incase the changing of the line itself isnt working?

it wont let me upload screenshots

[fading mantle]

I wrote the line myself, because nitrado haven't had a setting yesterday night.

that's what i wrote:

[ServerSettings]
DisableCryopodFridgeRequirement=True
DisableCryopodEnemyCheck=True
EnableCryoSicknessPVE=False
EnableCryopodNerf=True
CryopodNerfDuration=0
CryopodNerfDamageMult=0
CryopodNerfIncomingDamageMultPercent=0

[torn owl]

you are using nitrado?

[fading mantle]

🫡

[torn owl]

ok try this

[lofty hazel]

Lol thats the first mistake.... using nitrado

[torn owl]

go to general settings, just type in sickness then rechnage ur values there instead of typing the lines out. sometimes nitrado bugs and wont accept the settings.
if that doesnt work then its legit buigged and youll have to wait.

great input dude. thanks

[fading mantle]

renting servers by them for almost 8 years now. haven'T had a single problem so far 😮

[fading mantle]

I'll try that! should i remove my written lines, just in case?

[torn owl]

i would yes

[lofty hazel]

Your having an issue now with nitrado lpl

But for real though your one of the lucky few most everyone ik with nitrado are paying way too much or dont get any customer service.

[fading mantle]

not really. i'll declare that as me, an unpatient user, who didn't want to wait until they got a setting for it 😄

[lofty hazel]

Lol

[coarse vine]

All the official servers are hosted and provided by Nitrado. Everything you touch in Ark officially and unofficially, is Nitrado. Even Apex Hosting, is Nitrado.

[torn owl]

hes an idiot let him cook

[lofty hazel]

No private hosted servers can be run without nitrado

[coarse vine]

True. But good luck with people finding your servers. They're trying to kill them off.

[fading mantle]

true, but only if you build a server yourself. 🙂

[torn owl]

feed the trolls in general please

guys where the fuck does this go cuz i can tget it to work. and im sure im not putting it in the right area, i froget where i had it in ASE

NPCReplacements=(FromClassName="Ichthyornis_Character_BP_C",ToClassName="Dodo_Character_BP_C")
NPCReplacements=(FromClassName="Pegomastax_Character_BP_C",ToClassName="Dodo_Character_BP_C")

[lofty hazel]

@torn owl no one is trolling anyone

[coarse vine]

Raptor Claus is trolling everyone. Super Nice and a prim mamoth saddle? Time to kill some baby dinos.

[lofty hazel]

Yeah they are trying that annoying hide private servers is bs

[fading mantle]

i tried a similar line for removing the god forsaken micro raptor, tried both g.ini and gus.ini. they both didn't work. so it's either an ASA issue or that setting might not be implemented yet, or thex completely changed the setting. anyway. i have to live with micro raptors 😄

[lofty hazel]

Lol screw those things

[fading mantle]

but only herbivores 😄 you'll be super nice again instead 😄

[coarse vine]

Oh, crap. I was gonna murder abunch of Pts and Argies that I don't need in a mass hatch. Hrm..

Argies will work.

I mean Pts. Yeah.

[torn owl]

yeh maybe they havent implemented the setting yet

[fading mantle]

unclaimed tames don't work, do they?

[lofty hazel]

Hows the cryo pods working for everyone?

[coarse vine]

I'll try it out and see.

[lofty hazel]

@coarse vine you could always get the wild babys and use them

[coarse vine]

It's convinient to store them. Not a great option for pvp unless you know before-hand something is going down. Seems to be the intended use of them.

[fading mantle]

surprisingly well. the only change i would make if i would be a dev, would be, that after cryoing a dino, and if you have more empty containers at hand, you would epuip a fresh one instead of going in the inventory and equipping a new empty one

[lofty hazel]

Yeah they are probably going to remove tether when extinction comes out

[coarse vine]

Yeah that's annoying. That would be nice.

I was never really a fan of fighting two dudes with an army of dinos in their pocket that can counter every situation. But less lag is nice.

[lofty hazel]

Yeah same someone throws a giga out and your done.

I did like the old rag fights at blue obby

[coarse vine]

I dunno how the cave pvpers are doing. That seemed to be a big issue with the ptr channels and feedback. Not sure if their concerns over not being able to raid caves is legitimate or not. I'm sure my Youtube feed will tell in time as more videos are released.

[torn owl]

cryo change for pvp is very good.

[lofty hazel]

I would prefer pvp with the current fridge since it helps breed and isnt too op

Forces you to make a fob and defend it while attacking

[coarse vine]

NPCReplacements=(FromClassName="Microraptor_Character_BP_C",ToClassName="")

This should remove microraptors completely.

PreventTransferForClassNames="Microraptor_Character_BP_C"

This should prevent transfers ^

It goes in your game.ini under scripts.

[torn owl]

okay ill give it another go. thank you

[coarse vine]

Make sure it's in the right spot in your game.ini

[torn owl]

NPCReplacements=(FromClassName="Microraptor_Character_BP_C",ToClassName="")

that doesnt look right tho? set out exactly like this??

[coarse vine]

I printed it out from Beacon

If it doesn't work, then Beacon is wrong. And Beacon is usually always right.

Did you want them replaced with something else?

[torn owl]

okay gami.ini under scripts let m ego check up while my players are pffline

lol fat fingers

under script shootergame right?

[coarse vine]

Yeah. That's what Beacon is showing on the export.

[torn owl]

ok

starting server up with a dino wipe will report

[coarse vine]

If you have any tamed, they will stay.

They're still tameable.

That script comamnd will just make them not spawn anymore.

[torn owl]

can you print out same for pegomastax and seagulls please?

[coarse vine]

Replaced by something else? Or just deleted from spawns?

[torn owl]

deletion please

for april first im going to replace dodos with troodons now i know its possiblew

[lofty hazel]

Lol thats kring

[coarse vine]

NPCReplacements=(FromClassName="Pegomastax_Character_BP_C",ToClassName="")

NPCReplacements=(FromClassName="Ichthyornis_Character_BP_C",ToClassName="")

[torn owl]

thank you again

[coarse vine]

Don't thank me till it works.

[torn owl]

nah u still put some irl time into a concearn not of your own. ❤️

[coarse vine]

Beacon makes it easy to fetch settings. Took 10 seconds.

I love their day/night calculator.

[torn owl]

i like the day night cycle. what do ou do with it?

[coarse vine]

Make daylight 2 hours long, and nights 1 hour long.

[torn owl]

aye thats not bad

going to look into beacon now n learn it myself. thnk you

holy shiit it worked

[coarse vine]

Beacon is really powerful.

[torn owl]

now my beach side mansion is actually safe

[lofty hazel]

That only gets rough when your on gen2 waiting for element cycle lol.

[coarse vine]

You can adjust each server specifically if they have special conditions like Gen2 or Aberation. Not a big deal.

[lofty hazel]

Yah ofc was just thinking about if since you said it lol.

What is beacon?

[coarse vine]

Right now on the Island, 2 hours of day and 1 hour of nights feels good. I may change it again in the future. Without Beacon it's guesswork. The calculator tho?

[edgy plover]

how can you turn off cryo sickness in pvp

[torn owl]

weve established u cant

[coarse vine]

EnableCryopodNerf=True

[torn owl]

weve tried

seems to be bugged for a few of us

[coarse vine]

If that doesn't work, then it's coded to force it on for pvp.

[torn owl]

yeah

[edgy plover]

and should it be set to false?

like true seems to enable cryo nerf

[coarse vine]

True means no sickness. False means cryo sickness. If it works properly.

The EnableCryopodNerf=True goes underneath [ServerSettings] in your GameUserSettings.ini

[edgy plover]

i don't have that command i think i should add it

[coarse vine]

Can't hurt anything.

[edgy plover]

where can i find ark road map

[coarse vine]

Search google for: "Ark Ascended roadmap"

[wraith rivet]

i have 2 female barys on the island but i literally cannot find another bary to save my life and if i do its another female qnd its like lvl 10 is this normal? lvl 70 minimum is what i need 😭

[coarse vine]

The Island map has always leaned towards lower level spawns. Sounds normal to me.

[wraith rivet]

pain and suffering

the pegos and beetles will be like lvl 200 but every bary i happen to find is like lvl 2

[coarse vine]

As you stated above, about pain. That's actually intentional. They are coded that way on purpose.

[edgy plover]

don't work

[wraith rivet]

thank u for filling me in at least 😭 that sucks lol i guess ill just keep looking

[coarse vine]

We tried. Probably can't enable it for pvp servers. Until they change something, you may have to just resort to getting used to sickness, or using a cryo mod and ditching vanilla cryos.

[edgy plover]

i test in my singleplayer

[coarse vine]

Official server? Private server? Where are you searching.

[coarse vine]

You could switch it to False and see if it has any changes.

Could be setup incorrectly.

[wraith rivet]

a non dedicated with my friend

[coarse vine]

There's a mod called Custom Dino Levels you can use to actually balance out the entire server to lean more towards Ragnorok levels if you'd prefer.

[wraith rivet]

obh that sounds nice, tbh im just trying to get like 2 things done; the underwater caving and at least 1 boss so i can uninstall bc its taking so much damn space

[coarse vine]

If space is your concern then you better run when all the DLC maps are released.

Wait, hold on. Are you on ASE or ASA?

[wraith rivet]

ase

[coarse vine]

Lmao, that explains it.

[wraith rivet]

i know lol

[coarse vine]

You can uninstall the maps you aren't using individually to clear up space.

[wraith rivet]

its pretty bad but i just wanna do like 1 boss so i can fix the sunk cost fallscy in my head

i only have the island installed rn, the problem is i cant get my ssd part i have in my pc bc the douche that built it made it so i have to basically turn it inside out just to install the part and im not that bright

so i just wanna get stuff done and move on to a new game

[coarse vine]

I'm going to be honest, I didn't really understand what you said. The SSD is too small? Or it's not partitioned correctly?

[wraith rivet]

the computer is built in a way that j would have to deconstruct it to put an ssd in

[coarse vine]

Pre-built nightmare. Got it.

[wraith rivet]

bc the douchebag that built it wants me to go in to pay to get it installed

yeah its so shitty

[coarse vine]

My girl had an Alienware PC like that. I just took a screwdriver and a dream to it and make it work.

[wraith rivet]

idek what is going on with mine

i just know ill fuck something up if i try to deconstruct it to out the ssd in so im opting to just get what i want in the game done

put the ssd in*

[coarse vine]

I feel you, but if you ever want to learn something new, or master something you're passionate about, you can't be scared of it. A little research and exploration into what you have will eventually yield answers to what you could do with the PC. Rather than paying somebody else to do it who probably just watches youtube tutorials.

[wraith rivet]

thats fair tbh but im also 16 looking for a job so i have absolutely 0 idea how i can find all the stuff that would work best and install it and stuff

its all really confusing and my bf is on console so he cant help me

[coarse vine]

Good news is your young and have plenty of time to figure things out down the road. Right now for the sake of simplicity you have a plan and it seems to work.

[wraith rivet]

i have a 500 gb ssd thing but ive looked genuinely everywhere in my pc and have concluded i need to take it appart to install iy

i have 500 gb rn

[coarse vine]

It depends on the motherboard. It's more than likely a solid state drive that's plugged into a sata cable. There is new types of NVME drives that plug directly into your motherboard that offer higher transfer speeds. Or PCI-E cards that can chain multiple NVME drives. SSDs are a really simple thing to install and manage. If you do some research and put enough time into it, you'll figure it out.

[wraith rivet]

i dont know what some of that means but i spent about an hour looking at a yt video and the inside of my pc that i can see without like removing anything and it physically cannot work

the same guy built my moms exs pc lol and he did the exact same thinf so im prob just gonne have to save up and figure things out along the road lol, im sure it wont be as bad as i think

[swift pewter]

how to disable grass?

[wraith rivet]

the sane guy built mine* the way discord is deleted whole sentences i type

[coarse vine]

If you'd like a better experience and not be limited to your PC case, you can either pursue more knowledge in custom PCs and make a plan down the road to gut your PC and move it into a new box, or build a new one. Or just switch to console down the road. Christmas isn't far off. It may not be too late .

[wraith rivet]

im probably gonna learn more and gut my pc and itll be fine but im just worried abt how conplicated ill be

[slate minnow]

Why don't you just

Buy an external SSD

They're plenty fast for running games

[coarse vine]

I thought of that too. Not super ideal for maximum transfer rates. However as mentioned above, will get the job done.

[wraith rivet]

idk if that means like usb or something but i have 0 money to buy another one im 16 just moved to a completely new area so i dont have my old job

[frank pawn]

since the last update my tribemate cant even play? just comes up an error , reinstalled n everything n its still happening

[coarse vine]

What does the error say? Official or unofficial? Need more details.

[coarse vine]

If it were me, I would just focus on school and in the meantime go find that Baryonyx. I'm sure you'll find that higher level eventually. Just keep on looking.

[wraith rivet]

i am dw lol i actually assumed the spawn rates was bc i dont play a lot so the dino count wouldnt refresh i was just wondering if its a glitch

[coarse vine]

I would say you're fine. Just Ark being Ark.

[frank pawn]

official low level fatal error then a long list click ok and comes up ue shootergame has crashed and close error

[coarse vine]

Mm. Are they on steam?

[wraith rivet]

ty for the help

[coarse vine]

Nws

[frank pawn]

yea on steam

[coarse vine]

Tell them to close and exit the game completely. Sign out of steam. Exit Steam. Open Steam. Sign into Steam. Launch Ark, try to connect.

[frank pawn]

all been done still the error

[slim solstice]

Question

[coarse vine]

Its gotta have something to do with Wildcard and Epic's connection servers then. Could be a specific issue to your server in general. Can they connect to other servers?

[slim solstice]

So I'm a little out the loop but I paid for ASA yesterday and it doesn't look right. There are rocks and trees in places there weren't before for example. I'm confused please help

[coarse vine]

The map has been, "remastered". Do you mean the map looks different than ASE? Or that you have floating rocks and trees and visual glitches?

[slim solstice]

South 1 on the island is unrecognisable

[river wolf]

yeah they made the island unrecognisable, basically a new map in terms of world generation

take a dip into the ocean, no longer is it just an empty void.

[slim solstice]

When I first loaded into South 1 I was completely lost. Took me a few mins to realise it had some similarities

[coarse vine]

That is an intentional side-effect of this remaster. Many things have changed.

[slim solstice]

Christ! I'm excited to see what's changed. Thanks for clearing that up. I thought it was it purely a graphical upgrade

[coarse vine]

If you think this is jarring, wait till you see Scorched Earth. It got delayed for reasons they listed as, "Complete Overhaul".

[slim solstice]

Bloody hell, do I have to buy scorched earth again or does it come with ASA?

[river wolf]

it just comes with it

[coarse vine]

It comes with your original purchase.

[slim solstice]

Oh sweet

[river wolf]

every original dlc is free, but they have "adventure packs" that are optional but give some cool new stuff for some extra money

scorched earth is the only confirmed one, with trains and wagons and a new creature

[coarse vine]

Don't worry. Wildcard stated they have plans to open your wallet in the future.

[slim solstice]

Oh okay. Can't complain. I play solo because my WiFi is shit lol but it would be cool to play with other people

[river wolf]

did you check out the mods yet?

[coarse vine]

Are we going to see people hauling metal back to their base with their train and some desperados in cowboy outfits waiting to blow the tracks with c4 waiting down the hill?

[river wolf]

maybe

[slim solstice]

Took it quick peak but I've got this weird issue where things just feel wrong if I don't play them the way they are intended.

It's why I don't play skyrim mods on xbox lol

[river wolf]

adventure packs are very enigmatic right now, how are they adding a new creature for additional money to a free map?

[coarse vine]

Official servers are running the Winter Wonderland event via mod at the moment. The server events are now mods. You have to download and activate them if you're doing single player.

[coarse vine]

Probably a skin.

[river wolf]

as an added bonus for that event to mod change, you can keep them running permanently on singleplayer if you wish.

[coarse vine]

They may be toying with new server technology to prevent survivors from taming, or riding or interacting with dinos unless they have certain criteria unlocked. In this case being the, "Adventure pack".

[wraith rivet]

oh also i just wanted to know if i have to kill that dinosaur called carcharodontosaurus or something to beat any bosses on ark 1 bc i saw a lvl 6 or smthing one with tens of thousand of health and thats insane to me

[slim solstice]

Oh cool. I did notice that a few I liked, for example the indoraptor

[slim solstice]

Not relevant but Carcharodontosaurus is my favourite dinosaur

[wheat delta]

on nitrado how do you disable not being able to deploy cryopods away from fridge?

[river wolf]

depends, if youre doing the bosses on easy then no. on medium or hard then yes (or kill a giga instead, which has just as much hp)

[slim solstice]

Not just in ark. I mean altogether favourite

[coarse vine]

DisableCryopodFridgeRequirement=True
