Youre in water and its the correct temperature?

[rustic hinge]

Yes

[barren coral]

Incubator or the egg is out in the open?

[rustic hinge]

Yeah was just trying to add pic but realised I couldnt

Its the biggest water base ive built, I had to move the incubators last night because they wouldn't let me put eggs in while the inc was on a vac compartment up to a platform, now they practically have room all around and I hit this issue with not being able to hatch

[barren coral]

So is the incubator in water?

[tawny isle]

so ive been having some trouble with changing the max and min dino lvl with the custom dino lvl mod, im trying to have min 150 max 200 but even though i did all the steps needed. after I wipe all wild dinos they still spawn at a low lvl wondering if someone could help me out if possible

[viral echo]

Im trying to cross two slope roofs on officials how to fix

[severe viper]

just killed the cyclops boss 3 times and every time when loading out of the arena it crashed my game, is their a way to fix this?

Is their a command to spawn one where I can still get the engrams if I red gun it?

[rustic patio]

Aight

[gentle swallow]

What creature would you use for caving on the island?

[unkempt glacier]

what cave?

[knotty vale]

dose anybody know how to fix it if while i am riding a maegauna in game my camera zooms in a doesent stop when i glide in air

[ruby lichen]

Is photomode broken? I can't click it at all

[violet ingot]

why are all the entrances in club ark invisible locked doors that don’t let me inside buildings so I have to find parts of the building that for some reason let me walk through instead?

[crimson prairie]

i dont know but same happen to me the other day

[cloud fiber]

Why does my game keep crashing specifically on abb and rag im on ps5
I just cannot play nornally without crashing every 5 min. Espesially in the blue zone

[rich hull]

is there any way to mute the stupid splash screen for the mod/events im so tired of being deafened by the damn music

[rich hull]

check for any patches/updates like video drives idk forsure how ps5 does hardware updates but on pc its usually a video driver update

[cloud fiber]

It been doin it for a while on ragnarok and now when i started playing abb there aswell. On the island scorched and extinction i have not crashed before
I dont have any updates

[ionic merlin]

Baryonyx works well for most of them. I usually use a frog for the swamp cave since I farm cementing paste in there. Deinosuchus is good for the snow cave and can work for the underwater caves to since it can kill alpha tusos and alpha mosas in two giga bites if you keep them moving for the bleed to work.

[heavy minnow]

The server i play on is appearing grayed out with dashes across the days and the build, what does that mean? Does that mean that servers offline for now?

[ionic merlin]

Usually does. If it's a unofficial server I would recommend contacting the server owner.

[night bane]

question i am hosting a sever and i have my diffoffset set to 20 with maxdiff being false and i not get dinos above 120 any ideas ?

nvm got the wrong value

[dusty grove]

someone can help me ? why my oasisaurs dont produce nothing i cant access the inventory unless i'm next to the obelisk

[heavy minnow]

If the maturing rates are boosted (on official cuz of love evolved) can I still get 100% imprinting on my nychus? Or does the imprint % not scale to the maturing boost

[gilded yoke]

imprint % is doubled aswell

[lusty turret]

Why do wild low level parasaurs die when I try to knock them out with a slingshot? Yes I know I should wait for tranq arrows and use them but it's very odd and I want a parasaur rn rn to get tons of narcoberries

[cloud fiber]

I have done everything i could. Cleaned my ps5 deleted all my mods, dino wiped but whenever i get in a specific area with my mana in the blue zone it just crashes. I am thinking of just joining a server if i cant fix this.

[barren coral]

Use a club instead, doesnt quite deal enough damage to kill them

[ionic granite]

Cuz low hp

[crude ore]

Scrolling with your mouse doesnt zoom out?

[cobalt robin]

hello beautiful people. someone on my server is having an issue getting on. they told me:
Just tried to login and it isn't letting me on. Got the message, "Network Failure Message: Outgoing Reliable Buffer Overflow"
they play on PC through Steam. any ideas for a fix or what could be causing the issue ? thank you for your time

[prime smelt]

singleplayer? i crash tons of times on aberration. not only just when i turn my camera to load in another area, but simply going through my inventory at base. would specifically crash when trying to equip like a steampunk skin to reskin structures at base. but now its all the time. i beat alpha rockwell last night and transferring all my important shit to the island until i go to extinction. litererally dozens of crashes every night. save frequently is all i can say. only ab hardly any crashes on island or scorched . casual single player run has turned into a headache. and ab is like my favorite map from ase

on ps5 normal not the pro. it says im on steam from when i was here on ase

[old pivot]

everytime I log on to the game, all of my options such as graphics and volume reset, my characters are reset and my worlds are reset, anything I can do to stop this?

[west sinew]

help, i lost entire load order and premium paid mods list

does that mean i was robbed of paid content, thus can chargeback or pull paid money back sicne what i paid for i no longer have access to

[pseudo shore]

Unable to install mods

[fluid bane]

There is ..a way to get good Exo-suit ?

[pallid anvil]

sorry, just saw this

Unfortunately I tried reverting to an earlier back up save and the progress was still missing

[strong kettle]

does anyone recommend an nvidia driver for 4090 that is stable, mine is peforming terrible after i factory reset driver

[crisp sandal]

Hello everyone,
We are facing the following problem, which we are at a loss to solve:
One player is experiencing constant game crashes when traveling in the cluster. The character arrives on the new map and then immediately loses connection.
The game has already been checked for errors, the mods have been reinstalled, and the entire game has been uninstalled and reinstalled.
We even had the mods on the servers reinstalled today.
However, without success.

The problem first occurred after the last major patch with a focus on Lost Colony updates on February 8.

Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this or what needs to be done to prevent it from happening again?

[still monolith]

566.36

actually, probably dont do that

but its the most stable one AFAIK (cuz it wasnt vibe coded)

[sand socket]

I like dimorph swarms but I havnt tried on the more dangerous caves yet

For ocean caves Im gonna try a bary crew

[strong kettle]

why 🙂

[dawn leaf]

Anybody got any settings I could turn off on PS5 just stop the crashes in aberration Blues on

[still monolith]

Cuz its more than a year old at this point

[native vine]

anyone know how to fix a high pitched buzzing noise on xbox, it happens in the menu and in game

[crisp sandal]

,NPCSpawnEntries=((AnEntryName="Bison", EntryWeight=1, NPCsToSpawnStrings=("Bison_Character_BP_C"))),NPCSpawnLimits=((NPCClassString="Bison_Character_BP_C", MaxPercentageOfDesiredNumToAllow=0.5)))
you have there spaces ... delete them and try again.
All commands in the game.ini should be written in one line and without space

[strong kettle]

oh i see thanks

[night bane]

i removed the spaces it still does not seam to work

[faint crest]

when i load up ark Windows i get a unable to sign into xbox live even tho im signed into xbox app? any fixes

[sharp pebble]

Hey guys need some help. Admin of a server I'm on wants me to run a train track over the rag map, the problem is I can't use pillars anymore to act as supports and I dunno if the wild card reports I put in made it through.

Fixes, workarounds or other help is much appreciated. I have a clip but dunno where I should post if I should at all.

[night bane]

had the same problem as far as i am know it is a bug that needs to be fix, workaround atm is just building a whole brigde for the track to pass over

[sharp pebble]

A whole bridge, might you have some examples for me? Admin wanted me to run tracks through wyvern trench too but that's the last thing Im doing at this point.

[austere tusk]

im having issues with my loot not showing at all, not in vaults, not in reps, cant craft, and in drops shows nothing anyone else?

[sharp pebble]

Oh had this recently. Check the bottem of the screen for a drop down menu and make sure it's on all items. I had it do this and swap to artifacts on its own so it would only show artifact class objects

[austere tusk]

thank you king

[sharp pebble]

Your welcome. Took me 3 hours to clock that so I'm glad someone else doesn't have to pull out their hair over it too. XD

[night bane]

am trying right know and it is finiky what you need to try to do is trick the game in "reckonising" that there is fundation underneath the track but thing is youu need to get it just right and it gives you only range for 1 extra track just giving you a heads up

zo zilf i got abit wrong i remeber now i hope you have acess to either and infinte amount of time and resources or acess to creative

what you need to do

is you pilar and ceil 1 and place 1 track on that and then you can connect each piece after that with the fexiable conector rail

so it i finiky takes a massive amount of recourses and time

i can send you a vid or screen shot if you want

so i would recomand not to wast you time on this atm

[faint crest]

when i load up ark Windows i get a unable to sign into xbox live even tho im signed into xbox app? any fixes

[velvet bolt]

when i tried joining my ark world it crashed and then after lots of tries it started crashing on game startup so i cant even open it now, its telling me the problem but i dont understand. Can someone DM me so i can show the picture and possibly figure out whats wrong and how to fix it?(ASE)

[trim quartz]

If it is for ASA the config syntax has changed. NPCsToSpawnStrings is now NPCsToSpawn and you need to specify the entire blueprint path instead of just the class name. And in NPCSpawnLimits section the NPCClassString is just renamed to NPCClass.

[night bane]

you are a life saver i was truelly lost in the sauce

Can someone help me I’m trying to get wyverns from fjorudur on ps4 to ragnarok on ps4

I’ve tried transmitters

[night bane]

just to check like this right :
ConfigAddNPCSpawnEntriesContainer=(NPCSpawnEntriesContainerClassString="DinoSpawnEntriesDamiensAtoll_C",NPCSpawnEntries=((AnEntryName="bi",EntryWeight=0.15,NPCsToSpawn=("/Game/ASA/Dinos/Bison/Bison_Character_BP.Bison_Character_BP"))),NPCSpawnLimits=((NPCClass="Bison_Character_BP_C",MaxPercentageOfDesiredNumToAllow=0.15)))

[zinc roost]

Is Rockwell bugged or patched ref broth use? It seems on round 5 (when reapers start spawning) the plasma balls start spawning infinitely instead of just a wave of them. The first few rounds it functions as normal.

[austere tusk]

thought it was just another ark bug didnt even think it could be me

[night bane]

i cant thank you engouh you have saved my remaining hair

does any trait work with tranquilizers in the longneck_

[lapis depot]

i wanna buy a new pc cuz my old one has a lot of trouble running , do you think this pc could handle everything on low setting and console commands for pvp (AMD Ryzen 7 7700
Windows 11 Home
ASUS® PRIME B850-PLUS WIFI
32 GB PCS PRO DDR5 5600 MHz CL46
8GB PALIT RTX 5060 Ti DUAL
2 TB CRUCIAL P310 M.2 SSD)

[nocturne hill]

straight overkill for the shit graphics pvp tends to use, except that RAM is incredibly horrible and will gimp the CPU performance. i had no idea CAS46 even existed at 5600. you want like.. half that, on a non-shit kit. 6000Mhz CAS30 is a good starting point, but the current RAM shortage may make that hard. you would be better off (and probably much cheaper) getting a previous-gen system like a Zen4 5600/5700 or 12th gen intel with high-performance DDR4 + same/better GPU

[lapis depot]

can i message you privatly?

[nocturne hill]

sure

[stiff topaz]

Ah, unfortunate.
So, I was hoping i could help you out yesterday, but quite honestly i opened the explorer notes page and decided it needed some overhauling meaning i had to hold off on adding new stuff in case the data structure changed and I'd have to do it again (spoiler: data structure is changing)

Since we arrived at a conclusion for how to re-format the page I can start now, but it won't be accessible from reader view until alex has time to set up formatting for the data, but you'll be able to copy the IDs from viewing the page in 'edit source', so up to you if you want to wait for us to get it formatted nicely or just scoop up the data right after I add it

[celest hawk]

I’m there’s a bug in the game where I’m constantly stuck at viewing Tracking Information when looking at dinos or can’t access inventories or dedibox’s and it’s pissing me off

[high sage]

Yo anyone know how to fix items dissapearing from inventory after downloading them from transmistter on ascended

Help

[tight flicker]

What's up with all the sudden rollbacks on some servers? I understand it after a big update, but now it's happening with patches? My tribemates and I just got arked 2 days in a row, everything is replaceable ofc, but this is getting a tad irritating

[glossy tusk]

anyone know for the find all explorer notes for 10 lvls, are any newer tames count towards this? i heard cat does

[analog kernel]

Got a private server question.

We have a guy who's managing a 2 server cluster. Someone wanted to add an extra server and connect it to his cluster.

They've exchanged the cluster code to link them, but for some reason the new server isn't showing up in the cluster.

Anyone know what we may be doing wrong?

[frank echo]

Can someone sync Server 5858? King titan hasn't spawned in a few days.

[stiff topaz]

if this still functions like it did on ase the clusters need to be on the same machine, or in the same directory, something like that

[nocturne hill]

what method are they using to connect them? vlan?

[analog kernel]

let me ask them

[analog kernel]

apparently not, so their devices need to be physically connected?

[carmine kraken]

Hey idk if any of yall can help me with this. Single player, vanilla with sprinkles and Kalugas fences mods. I tried to transfer some Dino’s in and now anytime I touch an obelisk on my single player games (any map) the whole game immediately crashes. I have no issues on my community server though? I’ve deleted all saved info in my Xbox, uninstalled/reinstalled, deleted all my single player saves… any other ideas? Playing on Xbox series x

[nocturne hill]

it needs to all be on the same machine, or connected by vlan or something. the servers cant communicate by magic. they all need to be able to read and write the cluster folder, and have open network communication

if it was just the cluster number, anyone could just freely add their server to your network

[spiral jackal]

Is it a bug where you can’t feed Elixa to a giga desmo

[barren plume]

Whats the gfi for metal? I had all 2k of mine stolen by an alpha pego

[tawny isle]

Could any one help me out with custom Dino lvl mod can seem to get the lvl Dino’s I want

[brazen robin]

it just changes the distribution. you have to use the normal settings to change the range.
it doesn't guarantee levels either. its still RNG.

[supple arrow]

is there a way to stop tame indicators from disappearing when you toggle auto run?

[tawny isle]

Right I did everything in the setting it said but I changed the min and max but I still get like really low lvl Dino’s spawning

[potent swan]

Server NAPVE ASTREOS 6036 Has crashed then restarted for 3 hours now, no one checking tickets?

[potent swan]

PLS help

[severe viper]

what is the beta cyclops spawn command? im doing "cheat summon boss_cyclops_character_bp_medium_c" and its not working

[fresh scarab]

I figured this issue out. It's the cryo hospitals. I have 25 in a room, I turned them all off and now im not hitching at all. Even near my all my ossi's

[pallid anvil]

thank you so much for the help! I ended up uploading my character and putting them back on the Island to get the bobs tales notes there, but this will save me so much time! honestly, I didn't even notice the [Wiki admin] title in your name until now so you talking about editing it caught me by surprise, but I am excited to see what it will look like!!!

[stiff topaz]

So you know how there's a bunch of massive tables for each map and when you open a table it pushes the rest of the page around and it's a fucking mess?

The plan is to nuke them because they're horrible

all the info will be migrated into the individual entry for each explorer note in the tables under each author's name, and there'll be a second tab where you can view the image too. there's an early prototype live on the page right now (the 'where to find:' section up the top) but it's just a temporary placeholder until we've got a chance to refine the final layout

[stiff topaz]

cause they kinda duplicate a bunch of info so it's hard to justify them with how much of a mess they are for the page formatting

also dossiers are kinda in a weird spot rn, they're on their own page, and instead of the transcript and no image like most notes, they have image but no transcript
so might be migrating those over too once we have the template set up to handle an image of it too

[pallid anvil]

that will be so nice! I'm glad the notes section will be getting some updates, we have gotten so many new notes since the page was made but there hasn't been many updates to the design, so this will help make things a bit cleaner and easier to find!

[stiff topaz]

yeah honestly i went to open the page to take a look after you mentioned it, took one look and IMMEDAITELY went and complained 'holy shit can we do something about this page' LOL

Digging about in the pgd now, for my own clarity: there are Dear Jane notes, which are from bob and only on Island; and they're sorta like the 'free' version of these 'frontier' notes that appear with the BTT dlc?

[pallid anvil]

ya, that caused me a lot of confusion while trying to figure out where the notes on the island were, every video I could find would only show me the ones from scorched onwards. I think they are even in a separate tab in the explorer notes section in game

[stiff topaz]

ah

bad news

so, the explorer note IDs aren't manually set up. the command just unlocks the note that's at X position in this giant list of all the explorer notes

Now the dear jane notes are different, because they were originally implemented as a mod. so they're stored in a different list entirely

they're identified with a name, but to my knowledge there's no command that unlocks notes by names (it's a pretty niche system, only seven official notes total- really this is most useful for mods to add their own dossiers)

[pallid anvil]

interesting, does that apply to the bobs tales notes found on scorched, aberration, and extinction as well, or is it only for the dear jane notes from the Island?

[stiff topaz]

Exclusively dear jane, all the rest of the bob's are part of the primary list

so.. good news is at least there's only seven of them you need to pick up manually again?

i can even give you the coords for tp commands

[pallid anvil]

Luckily, I actually already grabbed the dear jane ones! thank you though!!!

[stiff topaz]

Aight so it's specifically the BTT ones you're still missing then? i can probably give you the ID ranges rn

gosh i miss being able to send images

[pallid anvil]

BTT are the only ones I can't currently find the IDs for, and I only need the ones from scorched as I haven't found any on Ab yet

[stiff topaz]

@slate minnow are you online can you send images for me pleae lol i dont want to write these one by one

[stiff topaz]

What about the map prologues and epilogues? those are stored in here too

1234 through 1243 are the BTT scorched notes

not inlcuding the map intro and outro

[pallid anvil]

I do need those for scorched as well! I used commands to fly through the overseer to the epilogues for the Island

[stiff topaz]

1247 for scorched epilogue

[pallid anvil]

thank you so much, your a life saver!!!!!

[stiff topaz]

happy to help!

[slate minnow]

Hi

What do you need

[cinder folio]

Damn it I can’t send pics here

[stiff topaz]

I wanted to send the picture of the ids for each map epilogue/prologue but fortuantely we only needed scorched epilogue so we're good actually, ty though

[slate minnow]

Alrighty perfect

You can also attach ark.wiki.gg links btw

Those r whitelisted

[misty jackal]

can ossidons enter boss fights on island, ragnarok, center etc?

[slate minnow]

Ye

[stiff topaz]

it was devkit screenshots i needed here cause the topic was we didnt have them on wiki yet

[slate minnow]

Alright np just tag me if u need

[stiff topaz]

so now that i finished LC creature renders its time to spend 4 hours transcibing note data lol

[stiff topaz]

you could help me migrate note data to the new format

haha jk .... unless?

[slate minnow]

I have my sem exams 😭 I will after next week

[cinder folio]

When placing turrets is it better to start from the top going down on my Fortnite, or bottom to top, I assumed if I started from the top the more I go downwards the more I’d be able to place

[slate minnow]

Oh pvp question sorry not qualified to answer this

[cinder folio]

🥹

[lone belfry]

it dont matter tbh

[teal dawn]

just swapped servers from aberration to extinction and when i went to download my wyvern from scorched nothing happens, its moved to to bottom of the list but thats it

same with the phoenix and im sure some other things. also when my friend went to download his tames all of their stats were zero, from what i gather online this is basically a death sentence for the tame but he has others we need, is there a way to stop this from happening or is it fucked?

[brazen robin]

is the server clustered properly?

if its non-dedi then only have the host upload.
best to use cryopods.

[teal dawn]

🤷‍♂️ my friend owns the server and right now we are doing the story maps 1 at a time in order so everytime we swap maps he shuts the old map down and starts the new one so I had the wyvern on scorched then did abberation and now we are on extinction and its like this. I dont personally know anything about the server settings or what not

[brazen robin]

if its a dedicated server, make sure the cluster are setup properly. even with just a single server. it makes uploads server based instead of local to the client (IE using singleplayer uploads)

I would hope you have a backup as the dinos are gone otherwise.

[boreal ginkgo]

@carmine veldt @lusty sonnet @astral perch cuando boss

[teal dawn]

Nope, they are gone gone. I'll ask my friend and we will try that if its not already implemented. In the meantime do you know the potential cause thats making it so I cant pull my wyvern out of the transmitter or nah?

[brazen robin]

probably the improper cluster 🤷 no idea if its not that.

[stiff topaz]

are you using cryopods/items to transfer?

[teal dawn]

No, im uploading the tame to the obelisk and downloading it in the creatures tab. I had heard that uploading them in cryo pods would set all their stats to 1

[stiff topaz]

Yeah i've never heard of dino transfers having that issue, but maybe while it was safe to use dino slots in ase it's not in asa now

[abstract jolt]

do you have enough space around for the wyvern to be downloaded?

[stiff topaz]

i found that there doesnt seem to be space restirctions any more

i was able to stack dozens of downloaded gigas inside each other (i was trying to make it crash by failing to spawn the dino for not enough space)

[teal dawn]

Even so I do, and I have the same issue with phoenix

Maybe its a scorched thing? But that would be fucking stupid which i suppose is on par

[primal cove]

Anyone ever encounter a bug where you cant upload anything into transfer via transmitter on officials? Timer ended and it wouldn't let me upload anything. But logging out and back in fixed it.

[primal heath]

Can the aureliax pick up a dreadnaughtus?

[ionic granite]

Bruh, no

[primal heath]

Well, it was able to pick up gigadesmodus...

[ionic granite]

Huh? You can't grab flyers

[stiff topaz]

will check

yeah they shouldnt be able to carry fliers and gigades is in fact a flier

[stiff topaz]

aureliax carry weight is 600, dread is 1250, so nope

Gigades is actually low enough drag weight for it lol

[hallow ember]

anyone else crashing often when opening your inventory?

[vocal oxide]

I am playing abberation anyone know way to get lot of thatch? any dino or something?

[gilded yoke]

propably elderclaw

[cobalt harness]

anyone know which is best map to look for gigas

[vocal oxide]

I dont have dlc so i cant tame it

[stiff topaz]

what stage in the game are you? like lategame or starting out?

[vocal oxide]

I am not late game but i have been playing for some time, i just crafted fab and chainsaw got some tames so yeah just beggining tbh

I got some tames already like ravanger, roll rat, stego etc...

[gilded yoke]

stego can do good thatch aswell but its slow af

[stiff topaz]

Stego is a solid all rounder for sure

Trikes iirc are also very solid for thatch and faster than stegos

[vocal oxide]

is there even trikes on abberation i didnt see any lol

[stiff topaz]

yep there are

All over green zone

[vocal oxide]

realy oh ok weird because i didnt see them, maybe they get killed immediatly lol

[stiff topaz]

Could be lol, ravagers are nasty

Try around the Portals, no ravagers there

still raptors and basilisks of course but it's an improvement

[quasi scaffold]

My tek crop plots stopped producing anything.
They are irrigated, have 500% greenhouse effect.

Anyone has a clue of what the problem is?

[vocal oxide]

btw how do i enable pet light on my shoulder? is there some faster way then throwing him on ground and then enabling it?

[ionic granite]

Emote weel, clap

[vocal oxide]

thanks

[ionic merlin]

Gigas and Carchas have limited spawns on all maps so you only get 1 or 2 spawning at a time. They do have dedicated spawners though so just keep killing carchas and the gigas you don't want and they'll respawn after a while.

[verbal bloom]

Extinction is the exception, they share spawn with other things in the perimeter of the snow

There's still limits like with any spawner

[ionic merlin]

Not sure if the maps with dedicated spawners would be better since they'll have a super low spawn rate on extinction.

[verbal bloom]

I would say extinction is better, most other have long ass intervals between spawn attempts, in extinction u just keep clearing the border of the snow and something will spawn shortly after

[ionic merlin]

Fair enough.

Never played extinction much and skipped ASAs version. I like the map myself but my friends aren't a fan of it unfortunately.

[stiff topaz]

Have they tried it in ASA? Ext got a pretty massive glowup compared to ASE, I hear

[verbal bloom]

Extinction is one of the best maps imo

Either version

[ionic merlin]

Problem is we can only afford a few servers at a time and there's other maps they'd prefer to have. Atm I'm out of work thanks to illness so we can only afford to have 2 maps. Running island as the main map and LC for the new content. We're going to swap LC for genesis 2 when it drops since LCs turned out to be a pretty big disappointment.

[ionic merlin]

I agree but friends don't and since it's my friend paying for the servers this time around, he gets final say on what gets added to the cluster. 🤷‍♂️

[sharp pebble]

Sorry mate gott busy, Xbox controller burst into flames and I had to sort out some stuff. That would be great but I dunno if it'll help me much where I'm at in the build. I'm crossing the centre valley on rag right now in the build but the stall has me just focusing on stockpiling rescources.

[sharp pebble]

It is a bug but it's more to do with the cursor jumping when you open inventory so you almost never actually notice it.

[primal heath]

Are they going to make cursed gear able to function properly on other maps besides lost colony or is it intentional for the to not self repair on other maps?

[frozen sleet]

Anyone who has elemental fire and ice skins premium mod everytime I've got it installed and creature costumes list is on it kicks me is it the mod or wc got a bug that does that no other list does it tho

[ionic granite]

I have cursed stuff on astareos, it repairing

[warm bear]

Same, I have cursed equipment on rag and it's repairing.

[verbal bloom]

As modder first

[frozen sleet]

I have asked 1 of the modders like I sent a ticket on 20th of December and had no answer back

[primal heath]

@ionic granite I'm on astraeos, have been for over a week and I've had to repair it myself. Ive kept a cursed long necked rifle in my inventory for several days and it's still at 31 durability and hasn't moved.

It's probably a single player issue or something that'll never be addressed

[sinful hinge]

Had a 100% imprinted adolescent Carchar starve right next to a full trough. thanks for the BS!!! lol

[barren coral]

[blissful zenith]

When breeding for mutations, when i get a male with the mutation i want and i replace my previous male dino, do i need to replace all the female dinos with mutated ones?

[safe mirage]

No, keep all females with 0 mutations always

[blissful zenith]

thank you

[blissful zenith]

when breeding for mutations, do i want to evenly split on male and female side of ancestry until i have like 19/20 and 20/20 or do i want to do one side 20/20 and 0/20 then go for 20/20 on botrh

[raven sandal]

Are there any cosmetic mods that have a skin for the megalab?

[paper belfry]

anyone knows why nekatus in a few days fixed many problems on the island like underwater fog performance problems etc and wildcard didn't even try something like that in 3 years

serious question

[safe mirage]

If you want to progress to very high mutations then always only use a mutated male and clean females

[scenic pumice]

There are some great tutorials on youtube, i suggest you watch those

Hey well I have this issue where my character hair looks so goofy and weird how can I fix it?

[scenic pumice]

Brush it

[sweet blaze]

With the paint brush?

[scenic pumice]

Nah, .. lol ... Wildcard is bad at creating hair ... If you want to try different hair, use the scissors, you can change and color your hair then

Scissors in hand, right trigger

Sorry, left trigger i mean

[sweet blaze]

Ohhh Alr lol ty ! I’ll have to change my haircut ig.

[scenic pumice]

No problem ..and to color hair use dye

Hey there, i have a problem with the game.ini of my server. I modified breeding parameters, but they are not used by the server. Yes, i did edit the file while server offline. Tried a destroywilddinos command in case, it did not help. I don't find solution, or don't search it with correct keyword. Did someone know a solution to this problem? thx

Hello, quick question: How do i kill unclaimed dinos on a Unofficial PVE server? I want to be able to kill them in order to tame carchas or other stuff. But it wont let me. I want to be able to invite people without fearing that they will destroy our stuff. I just want PVE with the ability to kill unclaimed babies. Any ideas?

[ionic granite]

you dont

[hardy hare]

@ionic granite its not possible? Thats strange... I mean it works on Official right?

[keen prawn]

are there go-to missions in gen 1 and 2 for farming tek blueprints ?

[orchid hearth]

check your tribe log to see if you are actually online. you may need to reconnect.

[thorn meteor]

Where can I find a list of best maps to tame high levels?

I know it used to be center and rag were best on ASE, but I’m back from a 5-7 year break and there’s so many new maps out. Lost colony seems horrible for taming. Is Astraos and valguero any good?

I’m really looking for a high level dunky, but I don’t want to waste time on the wrong map.

[thorn meteor]

You can’t. Maybe you should just play PvP. It’s better in every way anyway.

[cloud fiber]

Why is it that when i try to cycle through my skills on the solwyn it just does the skill its on. For me its z+left control to cycle but the use skill is on left control aswell. When i do z+left control it just does the skill.

Any chance we gonna see a fix for disconnection at server transfer on official before LC transfers open up?

[restive cosmos]

crashed upon entering broodmother boss fight, and the dragon flies out of the arena. anyone else experiencing this?

[graceful aurora]

You can only kill claimed dinos on PvE if friendly fire is enabled - if it’s disabled then you cannot kill them.
Unclaimed kills are on PvP only.

[leaden plaza]

Anyone know why I can’t see messages in global chat on Xbox Asa?

[bronze monolith]

You probably have it set to where it doesn't show? Check your settings and if it's not there hold the button with 3 lines and look for it

[leaden plaza]

What setting would I want to change

[leaden plaza]

And where might I find it?

[bronze monolith]

I'm logging in right now to check. I know there is an option in settings

[bronze monolith]

Open settings. General tab. Ui tab. Scroll all the way down. On the right hand side look for chat filter. Set to all

[leaden plaza]

Yeah I had that set to all already

Might just be no one talking in game chat

[pastel barn]

Your game client needs to be on englisch

[leaden plaza]

Where would I find that setting?

[pastel barn]

Oh wait sry I think I misread it... But would be a test worth

If you on console you have to set your whole console to English... I had a player on ps5 with language on Italy and he was not able to see server messages send to chat

Is it possible to have a hotkey to split stack ,like we do with drop or tranfer?

[regal robin]

Anyone else having issues with the Dino depo mod being super broken?

[solar mirage]

Yes hold shift and drag your stack onto a new slot. Splits it in the middle

[solar mirage]

Just google ark soft ini

[misty jackal]

whats the best dino to block revenant bronto on defence missions

[solar mirage]

Just use theri or smth works fine

[misty jackal]

it comes near defence tower and one taps it and its over

[quasi mountain]

Bury reapers in its path works 7/10 of the time

Other than that just hit it with all dps you got

Shotgun it’s weak points on legs

Anyone have any good base spots for the island? I always base herb or by red ob and I want a better location

It’s central

U have cementing paste cave

[dense patio]

Im pretty sure they do however i can never find one lol

[viral echo]

Yes cats scare micro

@ionic merlin

[misty jackal]

i did but somehow it goes past reapers

[quasi mountain]

Yeah not 100% effective hit or miss and I’ve done a bunch sometimes works sometimes don’t it is what it is

[misty jackal]

yea thanks for answer. On alpha dificulty its really hard it goes by and just one tap tower and its over. Reapers help for sure

[ionic granite]

With capped carchas defence outposts gonna be way easier

Is no clipping a bug or is it turned off on officials

Hi guys, i was playing ark evolved months ago and when i get back to the game after downloading it again it kept crashing once i open it, the screen freeze in less than 1 min without showing me crashing message or anything. Any solution for that?

[spice shard]

why it says i dont have enough mod storage in PS5? i didn’t even download any mod

[ionic merlin]

Common issue on PS5 I'm afraid. Sorry but I don't know the work around for it.

[nova sand]

@tender violet That character can't be recovered

[tender violet]

Why bro ?😢

[nova sand]

you either overwritten it or it was too old

[tender violet]

I opened a ticket a long time ago, but unfortunately I haven’t received a response.

Then I created a new character.

[nova sand]

yeah you have made 8 reports even back then we could not recover it i am sorry. because it's just a google form you fill in we don't don't reach out to everyone.
within 24 hours we normal normal either restore the character or we don't

[gilded yoke]

restart playstation in safemode (hold power button for 7s when starting it) then you can clear your cache

[tender violet]

Does that mean I won’t get my character back? 😢

[nova sand]

yeah, i am sorry

[gray urchin]

any news on LC features coming back? like unlocked cosmetics and cutscenes at the milestone unlocks? we paid for this and its almost march

still missing

[tender violet]

Thanks anyway.

[ionic merlin]

If you're on unofficial I would recommend using the mod Better Outposts. It has a ini option that can nerf the bronto bosses damage. I would also recommend combining some turret mode tames like chalicos with the buried reapers. Bit of a pain to set all that stuff up but it makes them a lot easier.

[misty jackal]

its unofficial server, all settings like on official, only rates x2 times official

[sick pivot]

what's the best way/dino to mass farm hide on aberration?

[gilded yoke]

i'd need to double check but arent ravagers good for hide? anyway with the amount of ovis on aberration its propably that + chainsaw

[verbal bloom]

Chainsaw ovis

Is global chat broken on Xbox?

[verbal bloom]

No, u just have to deal with the censorship

[misty junco]

Makes sense

Just didn't remember it being this bad lol

[verbal bloom]

Always been that bad, MS is horrible

[strong kettle]

does the dev kit show where a specific dino can spawn at?

[verbal bloom]

Yes

The wiki also has that

[strong kettle]

I saw that but not sure how often it gets updated. Reason I ask is I wanted to see if they changed alpha ossi spawn points

[fallow echo]

lc crosstravel open when ?

[verbal bloom]

Alpha Ossidon now seems to just be a % at any Ossidon spawn

[strong kettle]

i heard this but i havent confirmed myself as I cant find any alpha on my map

[verbal bloom]

They still rare, they seem to have started spawn same update as rexes

[strong kettle]

im definitely seein more carno alphas and even one rex alpha that i havent seen since started playing the map

so does that mean i would have to kill any ossidon to have a chance?

[gilded yoke]

check #fanart-and-screenshots , i had the same argument in pve discussion and someone wanted proof

[floral plinth]

hi guys, whats the best flyer (that are only available on scorched earth) to snatch wyvern eggs? thanks!

[frozen sleet]

Tapa

[gilded yoke]

wyverns

[strong kettle]

awesome you the best

so it seems like they dont use the snowmonster spawn for alpha ossidon anymore so the two containers that had this are useless now and now is a chance on any ossidon spawn from what I am understanding

[gilded yoke]

that would align with where i killed em so far

[strong kettle]

perfect i think validated theory

[warm bear]

Yeah I've been clearing the ossidon spawns and all I ever see is alpha carnos.

[frozen sleet]

60 8 I've found them just takes ages to get 1 just got to kill everything in the area for a ossidon as raasclark took him 5 hours for 1 alpha to spawn

[frosty cove]

How do I get to loot the lost city without being jumped

Anyone know how

[ionic merlin]

You won't get hostile stacks if you go in there on foot with no tools in your hands.

[frosty cove]

Thank you

[turbid radish]

Hey what are the max level for a fully mutated Dino(both breeding pairs are 150) on single player

[verbal bloom]

Your question make little sense, but a dino with 6 stats, 60 base points in each, fully mutated in all and all levels spent will be 1973

I want my server back!

I'm sure you do

[subtle valley]

[faint kayak]

4 of the 7 servers I have bases on are down lol

[subtle valley]

Dang

[faint kayak]

one being an aberration server that is mostly empty

so...someone added a wrong semicolon in the ark source

[lapis yacht]

5977 is still not up

[unkempt pelican]

6007 still down, i've made numerous reports about this server since the release of astraeos but it has yet to be looked into..

[verbal bloom]

Astraeos server saves are massive they take longer

[unkempt pelican]

thats not an excuse

the server ping goes up crazy high and crashes multiple times a day

[verbal bloom]

It's not, it's reality

It crashes cause it has extreme strain put on the server

[unkempt pelican]

reality huh? then why does it seem that all other astraeos servers are up but my server... what reality you living in

[verbal bloom]

Same as your, your server is likely just as much down as others, but people tend to exaggerate stuff when it their own

[grizzled fossil]

Yo yo yo

[unkempt pelican]

go to arkstatus . com and you can see where each server ranks etc. dont act like this info isnt recorded uptime, downtime, crashes per day etc.

[jagged depot]

and here goes the servers again... ark devs man lol

[summer sable]

So I just logged into this game for the first time in a while. I joined an official "The Island" server. It consistently lag spikes with 8 players online. It crashes within 1 hour of me logging in. I lost 20 minutes of progress. How the hell this this crap not under control yet? Studio Wildcard is such a joke.

[timber cipher]

Please i need an Admin, i got a major issue, i migrated from my LC server to Astraeos server and we got the crash/rollback meanwhile. My character has lost every items including all my creatures and i also got my character duplicated.

[surreal sonnet]

We run a cluster with a few different maps, and for some reason with the 7pm (3 hours ago) automatic restart, our island server broke... Multiple bases gone, some bases where the base foundation structures are missings. Saddles on dinos gone. Gear and tools gone from inventory..

We are unsure why this happened or if this is linked to what was announced by Svala a few hours ago.

I have turned the server off, and am looking at backups to see if we can roll back and not have stuff missing - but there's a file size difference on the map save which worries me. like for example, the 2.30pm save is 30.71MiB and the 4.50pm save is 9.41MiB.

[verbal bloom]

Nothing should have affected unofficials, all that happened was a setting on the official servers being turned off

[sand socket]

okay I just wanna run by my idea with others
so I have 1 health mutation on some theris with my prefered health stat
I have a theri without mutation but with the prefered health
I have a theri with a prefered dmg stat

should I breed the dmg stat on to the health mutations and then the health from the unmuatted theri with the dmg stat to proced to try to get more mutations on both

so I have a hp line and a dmg line with no other mutations but perfect stats otherwise

[verbal bloom]

I would breed both pefered stats without the mutation, making a perfect pair, then breeding the HP mutation in to that perfect start

It's not mandatory, u could combine both at the end, I prefer to keep it cleaner

But it's just visual, as long as u breed correctly, u would achieve what u want

[sand socket]

smarter idea

[shadow jetty]

I mean the general difference in save files (different sizes in MB) is basically expected if you have this many things missing (whole bases gone) between save files.
You should be able to host a savefile though and test it, maybe copy paste it elsewhere before so there’s 0 chance of it corrupting the backup once you load it.
But I would just try and load the latest backups, and see up to which the things are gone. And then keep playing with the latest one that has everything.
Sounds to me like a savefile corruption when your server shut down and it didn’t properly save everything

[surreal sonnet]

Yeh, we had to go back 8 hours to make sure everything is there. Save file corruptions sounds possible - do we know why those happen? guess it's just random. and thank you!

[shadow jetty]

I don’t think there’s a definitive answer as to why.
Officials also corrupt from time to time and they have to go back some time to the last properly working one sadly.
It’s just quirks in technology 😕

[surreal sonnet]

Alright, thank you so much.

[lethal willow]

is there a fix for non despawning trees?

[cobalt jay]

Anyone know a fix for an issue where every time I load in my character is just floating and structures won’t load in. It’s been happening since yesterday and reinstalling, restarting, and transferring won’t fix it

[brisk sierra]

I just tried to transfer to from Ragnarok to our Extinction server through the transmitter. A message popped up telling me it was waiting on log in lock. What is that and how do I get to the other server or how do I cancel it because it says if I cancel it goes to main menu? I have babies out on ragnarok so I don't want to get stuck not being able to log back in

[long niche]

any1 else having connection issues at the min keeps timing out on me

[mental delta]

Why does it say unknow eeror when im trying to join my offical pvp server

[primal heath]

Is wildcard ever going to fix single player? I'm so tired of the crash loops. I've been running the same mods for a while and suddenly they just start conflicting, bs.

[verbal bloom]

Mod staying working and compatible with each other isn't WC responsibility, it's the modders

[primal heath]

Nothing has changed, no mod updates, the game just crashes now. I don't think that's the modders fault. I know people with no mods that have the same problem on single player.

[left kiln]

Yo so i just was about to grab a wyvern egg and my griffin threw me off his back now i cant ride him or anything i can only get on the passenger seat

[thick mason]

has anyone managed to get the sir m8 to do anything useful? tried to get one to load/unload wood and charcoal but it broke right away after taking all the charcoal, and presumably being in "take charcoal" so it wouldnt load wood

[primal heath]

I just activated a mod called a simple performance mod and it loaded in fine, smh

Tell me it's not wildcard....

Bs

[lapis yacht]

I keep getting unknown error when I try to join the server that I'm on 😭

[primal heath]

They need to stop adding stuff until they fix it. They just keep piling on top of broken updates.

[rancid mortar]

Same just transferred off map booted me out now all I get is unknown error

[zinc pulsar]

Me too

[rancid mortar]

Character is just stuck in limbo congratulations wildcard

[primal heath]

@thick mason sir 5rm8 has been broken since day 1, battle rigs, tek bunker, hammer and template, all unusable

[thick mason]

the hammer template has worked so far for me, at least for my use cases. but yeah heard no one uses battle rigs lol
i’m sure we will get new expansion packs to buy “Bob Tales Updated!”
sir 5rm8 seems like a way to try and monetize a solution since they can’t really just add an auto draw/deposit to a forge and charge money for it

[brisk sierra]

Yeah I'm in limbo now. I can't log on to the server I'm trying to get to and can't get back on the one I transferred from. Guess I can kiss those baby carchars bye bye

[primal heath]

@thick mason if your template has a sloped wall it stops and won't complete. If you keep it simple, yeah it somewhat works.

[desert fox]

Yeah getting error every time I try to connect.

[brisk sierra]

So its asking me to download my character back on to the server I was trying to leave. If I click that will I lose all the stuff in my inventory

[woven galleon]

so, the unkwow error to try join a server like 6293 is for all o just me?

[dense geyser]

I'm having this issue with several of my servers I frequent. I wonder if a cluster or a data center is having issues.

I can get onto an EU server, but not my main NA ones.

[woven galleon]

yeah maybe, 6293 and 6301 have the same issue, but 6291 work perfectly, all NA server so maybe we just wait haha

[dense geyser]

I'm trying, but I have some boss wyverns out and their food is just low, lol! I think I have enough milk in a trough to maybe last a few hours.

[woven galleon]

i hope 🙁

[brisk sierra]

Yeah I can't get back on to 6084. Can't really trust this game enough to leave babies out but I did and I shall pay the price I guess. After so many years the frequency of this happening should be vastly lower but I have been back playing for about two weeks and in that time this has occurred several days.

[slender mortar]

Does anybody know if they fixed the bug on PS5 single player where when you switch between Arks you lose ownership of all your stuff when you return?

[karmic orbit]

unknown error heheeheh

[desert fox]

No clue had that error on single player since ASA came out.

[tawdry hazel]

Why am i getting unknown error when i try to transfer to my aberration server. it says there is 3 people on it. Its been going on for 30 minutes. I can play other maps

[tacit root]

i cant even join the server where my character is xD

[blissful zenith]

I thought if I breed a mutated female with a clean male i will get the mutations moved to the male side

[thin wasp]

same. theres 12 people online on it but as i see theres many people with problems. hope that my stuff doesnt despawn. wanted to log in to reset timers and repair wind turbine... and i have to work tomorrow so i hope its fixed soon before i have to go sleep.

[tacit root]

yeah same for me some of my tribe mates could join the server wwhen they restarted their console

[primal heath]

It seems the single player issues are finally leeching into the multi-player. Maybe they'll actually try to fix it now, but probably not.

[lavish heath]

So I was going from an Extinction server to a Lost colony server it duplicated my character and transferred me with element in my inventory now I can't get off Extinction because it uploads my character and tells me there's an error when I re-download there are exactly 11 minutes and 12 seconds on the timer in my inventory this has happened like 12 times now

How do i fix the crashing in the city on lost colony. When i try to get the drakeling loot crates in the city i just cant reach em. Im on ps5 btw

[fringe maple]

I cant get them either, so I just give the keys away. Only twice I got a key that spawned elsewhere, and I lost that 1st loot bc when I flew to the mountain and chest spawned, so spawned a silent Yuty and his 3 friends right in top of me lol.

[drifting ocean]

they should take ALL the servers down

Hopefully the crashes in the city will eventually get fixed for console otherwise what is even the point of playing lost colony🤦

[fringe maple]

Yup. I cannot enter the city at all. I use telrport? Crash. I walk super slow in the city? Crash. I Mana my way in? Crash. So far every time I've lost my stuff and dino. I give up and just avoid city. Shame I can't access the whole map. Shame it happens to others too. 🙁

I can get in it for like 50% but the crates are exactly in the other 50%🥲

I have a breeding pen for tek parasaurs cause it's an easier way to get the small amount of oil I really need for gas

but I was doing other stuff and all of a sudden the unclaimed fully grown babies started attacking my other dinos in the pen anyone know why this may be?
do unclaimed dinos that starve start attacking things?

[granite sage]

what does desmo babies need to eat when raising them?

[hardy vector]

Is lost colony alpha glitched?

[sand socket]

from what Ive heard
alpha colony as a whole is glitched to hell

[void oak]

why does my game freeze for a moment when accessing the tek replacator . anyone know the fix to this.. really annoying

[still oasis]

I lost 60 empty cryo balls transferring from Astraeos 6050 to Lost Colony 6364

And unfortunately I cannot save the video due to having to restart after I join a new map

[nocturne hill]

probably loading hitch from so many engrams at once

[fringe maple]

Lol, samesies. XD

[cursive socket]

Whos trying to grind ik a little bit im not trash and im not perfect dm me VC REQUIRED

[primal heath]

I heard you can use thralls on other maps now, is it true?

[exotic wigeon]

Stupid question but do spear bolts damage structures
And up to what tier?

[spiral chasm]

I'd have to test stone+ tiers later, since I'm not at my pc, but I think it's safe to say they at least damage up to wood.

I use tranq Spear bolts on the normal, but never tried shooting my own structures. Will try that tomorrow.

[round parcel]

I'm sorry but can someone explain mass endgame breeding

I tamed 2 rex's

The male 143 which I got it's hp up to 61k

And a female who's DMG I got to 800

When they breed all the babies come out 204, 8k HP and 400 DMG

[unkempt glacier]

anyone know if bleed dmg from mele weapon skill tree work with boss?

[ionic granite]

if you mean 61k hp and 800 meele after lvling up, its not working like this

babies getting stats before lvling up

[round parcel]

Idk how to tame😂

I just assumed that how it worked

They all get stuck at like level 204

[ruby lichen]

Having an issue where opening the blood forge my game crashes, what is that about?

[prisma bloom]

anyone here evolved and looking for sm1 to play with

none of my irl friends have ark

[frail prawn]

I can explain it in a voice chat easier. But simply each stat has a chance to be inherited so you would need a few breed cycles to get correct atat outcome. And when you get a pair with right stats use that as base breeders. Unless you want more mutations.

[round parcel]

My homie said that a dino should be a low level and another a high?

[ionic granite]

even if it works, you gonna use metal sword and pike against boss?

[vast harness]

anyone else’s singleplayer game crashing after 1 minute?

[unkempt glacier]

why not

[gilded yoke]

is there a trick to render plant species z that wont render themselves?

[ionic merlin]

Can be worth doing if you're on a tame like a stego where you usually use hand held weapons.

[ionic merlin]

Bosses are usually immune to bleed effects and it doesn't affect the tek spear so its useless for the final stage on the LC boss.

[ionic granite]

with the same efficienty you can use carno, came bleed but no 5% chance like skill

[ionic merlin]

It's more that it makes the melee weapons more effective and if you're on something like a stego it's usually because you want a tanky tame that allows hand held weapons. Really handy for stuff like the dragon fight.

[ionic granite]

💀

dragon fight...
yea fire damage not exist

[ionic merlin]

Veggie cakes dude

[ionic granite]

they not healing % of hp

at this point just take some theris

[ionic merlin]

Theriz for unridden tames stegos for ridden so you can shoot while it's in the sky

[ionic granite]

i would like to see how you gonna fight dragon with stego

cuz this strategy is crazy

[ionic merlin]

Might take a few days before I can send you the alpha clip.

Actually that sounds like a fun event for me and my friends. No army stegos only.

[void bolt]

I put a skin on my buddy and his Tek Chestpiece vanished any way to get it back?

[unkempt glacier]

ah dammit well i can still use sword to fight dragon

[ionic merlin]

Warriors rage will be worth taking. It gives a crazy buff to your melee weapons dps when it procs.

[dusty dagger]

Me and my friend up’oaded our characters to switch maps but our games crashed and now our characters are gone,except our Dino’s and everything we built were on those characters tribe which we don’t have access to anymore,is there a way to claim everything back?

[unkempt glacier]

oh ok

i may change to that branch then since bleed not work for boss

[ionic merlin]

Don't work for the boss but works for the minions and normal mobs. I'd say they are both worth taking but if you're limited for skill points take warriors rage. You'd want to pair it with the bleed skill anyway since the faster attack speed makes the bleed easier to proc.

[unkempt glacier]

it ok

i thought i can kill dragon quicker with bleed skill tree

[unkempt glacier]

ask admin to invite you back to tribe

[ionic merlin]

We've abused those types of tactics too many times in the past unfortunately. 🤣

[unkempt glacier]

yeah

dino army kinda boring now so i want to test sword method for dragon

bleed we have deinonychus and deinosuchus before nerf already

[ionic granite]

I'm still using deinonychus for solo dragon

[unkempt glacier]

i mean deino op so yeah i jus want to try smth new that all

also because i dont have access to deino xD

[ionic merlin]

Yeah I've got bored of using armies as well. I plan on doing all island bosses on gamma with ridden gigantopithecus at some point for a laugh. I will be cheating slightly and removing the yuties and purlovias from the tek cave with a mod for it though.

[unkempt glacier]

after all game is born for us to have some fun XD

[dusty shore]

Ok so I hav map 1 (fjordur) and map2 (lost island) both non dedicated server
Map 1 am host
Map 2 my friend's host
So we been playing for a while on map2 and I thought can I bring my map 1 dinos to map2?! And yes I can
But when I upload survivor on map1 (with dinos) and download survivor (with dinos) on map2 I will lose my current survivor on map2?!

And I will not be in my tribe

So how do I get my map1 dinos into same tribe as my map2

(notes: map1 am host can do anything
Map2 my friend host and he won't help me (we currently in a war))

And I am kinda weak in map2 I wana get my map1 strong dinos and fk them🙂

ASE btw

[ionic merlin]

Easiest way would be to transfer your map2 character to map1 and use cheats to claim everything before transfering back with your strong critters. This will cost you the ridden imprint buff on the bred critters though. You might be able to transfer the imprint ownership with cheats but I don't know the codes if they exist so you'll have to look that one up.

[dusty shore]

i am not host in map2

and my frined wont help me

coz we at war

[ionic merlin]

Reason I'm saying transfer the map 2 character to one you can host. Tribes are linked to survivor ID in the map save files so it should stay in the tribe when you transfer back.

[dusty shore]

ooo

so when i load my map 2 chrac am stil in my map 1 tribe?

[ionic merlin]

No but since you'll be the host you can use cheats to claim everything with the map2 character so it's a none issue.

[dusty shore]

i am not host in map2

😭 i told this like 5 times now

my frineds host and we at war now

[dusty shore]

!

[ionic merlin]

Your misunderstanding.

[dusty shore]

can u vc?

am in game rn

[ionic merlin]

Yeah sure.

Give me a call.

[dusty shore]

whher u from

are u racist?🙂

am in call

dm

[ionic merlin]

OK.

[dusty shore]

??

[ionic merlin]

Nah I'm not racist.

[delicate field]

So I completed the lost colony milestones but the skins are not unlocking, tried a few of the fixes I read about online but still not working. Anyone know if I can just spawn them in or any other solutions? Playing on a Nitrado server

[fading cliff]

Anyone have an issue where they cant see some plants for the bob tales dlc? I can see most of them but theres a few that are invisible ( i think ) because it asks if I want to remove foliage. I logged on one day and it happened because I use to not have this issue. I picked up the plants and re-placed them and changed from crop plot to plant pot and nothings fixing it

[primal heath]

Why isn't my cursed gear self repairing?

[ionic merlin]

Normal repair rate is super slow and it can take several days for it to repair even with the boost from the perk.

I should add it doesn't repair if it's been broken completely.

[primal heath]

I've had a cursed long neck rifle in my inventory at 31 durability and it hasn't changed in over a week now

@ionic merlin Raas had a cursed helmet fully broken and it fixed in his inventory

[ionic merlin]

That's wierd I've never seen one repair after being broken. Not used the cursed weapons yet since I use a mod that adds some new ammo types and modder hasn't added support for them yet. It's mainly the cursed tek armor I've been using.

[exotic wigeon]

Thank you boss man or boss lady
Keep me updated
I totally am not trying to do something either stupid or smart

[primal heath]

Ok, new issue. The game crashed and when I boot the game up I can't select join game or create game or the mod store. I can't do anything at the main menu

[unborn pumice]

Hi everyone

[ionic merlin]

Just tested and they can damage stone but not metal.

[exotic wigeon]

Good good gooood
Thank you boss

[proper pollen]

anyone else crash when trying to start up game?

[primal heath]

There is a MAJOR lag at the main menu. I have to sit there pressing something for a few minutes before it registers. Probably because of the update that's coming 🙄 smh

Adding more features that probably won't work and will definitely break a lot of other things too. When will they learn to stop adding to broken features, fix it first

[solar mirage]

It definitly isnt cause of the update lol

[paper valve]

Hello, I have an issue, when I transfer from one map to another, I always need to relog because structures don’t load. Did anyone got this issue and know how to fix it?

[solar mirage]

You mean you get sent back to main menu and when u rejoin its bugged?

[paper valve]

yeah if i wait i got disconnected and send back to main menu

[grizzled flint]

Anyone know how to fix problem where vacuums say there too far above ground??

[maiden cypress]

anyone know how to fix lost colony skill points getting completed but not advancing?

ive got 2 rows of completed missions and they just stuck there

[solar mirage]

When u get kicked out ur character is uploaded. Just join the server u were transfering to from the main menu and u will be able to download it easily. Only buggs when u join same server u were kicked from

Generally if you havent spawned after transferring you are in upload. If you leave then and join a different server on the cluster you will be downloaded there

[paper valve]

yeah i know, i don't have to upload my char, just relog every time i transfert, but it's boring to have to relog every time when i transfert

[solar mirage]

Split it up u only have a 17x17 radius or so

[paper valve]

i tried to create an another char, and transfert and with the new one i don't have this issue

[solar mirage]

Explain ur problem again im confused now

[paper valve]

when i transfert myself on another map,i choose my bed to spawn on it and when i spawn, nothing load (some dinos sometimes load, but no structures at all, and i spawn naked) i can move but can't jump, can't use my stuff, cant open my inventory... if i wait i got disconnected and have to reconnect to the server and after that i can play normally, like nothing happen

i have to do this every time i transfert

[solar mirage]

R u on ps?

[paper valve]

nop, on steam

[solar mirage]

Weird, what graphics u on?

[nocturne hill]

that is a pretty generic disconnect, you can "move" because movement is preemptively done locally for smoothness. all the other actions require server communication to see anything

[solar mirage]

Yeah but what is it caused by?

[nocturne hill]

no way to tell from that. could be server performance issues, net stability issues or restriction anywhere along the connection, too slow loading on the player's end (direct transfers between servers get really funky)

plus a grab bag of infinite cursed networking issues

[solar mirage]

Cheat ForceJoinTribe
Cheat TakeTribe
Cheat GiveAllToMe while looking at strukture or dino

cheat MakeTribeFounder

cheat MakeTribe Admin

[paper valve]

most of graphics are on High

[solar mirage]

Maybe vram issue?

[nocturne hill]

no way anything graphics related can cause a disconnect. system memory.. maybe, if swapthrash is slowing down load. important question is how long it takes to transfer

[solar mirage]

Well not jumping and not loading is not usual for a dc

[nocturne hill]

yes, it is? what would you expect would happen

if you are DCed, nothing loads for obvious reasons, and you cant jump because your attempt at jumping never reaches the server to get confirmed

[solar mirage]

When i dc i can still jump. Jumping isnt server sided

[nocturne hill]

it very much is

[solar mirage]

No

[nocturne hill]

involves a mode change and fires off a bunch of shit serverside, it cant be sanely interpolated like directional movement

maybe it used to be, but the entire movement system is a burning circus regarding net auth exploits

[solar mirage]

But it can definitly be interpolated. The ark jumping is basically just the ue character template

[nocturne hill]

it can, but it is not. completely different mechanics from the very lazily replicated directional movement ue uses by default. which ark is not using exactly stock

best case if the client allowed it while DCed, it would just stutter horribly. i have not seen it allow it

[solar mirage]

I have multiple times was just normal. And the ue template is more than just directional movement in the meantime

But who knows its ark at the end of the day

[nocturne hill]

i am not sure what you think that means. not a real DC if you can still move freely without eventual issues, though

there are a few "degrees" of disconnected, i have seen a number of cases of people being cut off one-way only or having only lazy rep dropped, that was weird

[solar mirage]

Maybe. Cause when vpn dcing you can also jump

[nocturne hill]

what the heck is vpn dcing

[solar mirage]

When you connect to a vpn you get dced/complety desynced and can walk around freely without having an influence. Alot of ase pvp players used it to scout bases. Dont know if it still works in asa but im guessing it does

[nocturne hill]

that does not involve a vpn.. or should not. it was a hack that selectively restricts certain packets from being sent to the server without DCing the person

[solar mirage]

No vpn worked fine

[nocturne hill]

i am familiar with it from experience and from seeing someone rant at length about it while patching it for ASE servers

literally no way a vpn could do that, just not how anything works. maybe very briefly get similar results just by doing a full, temporary DC

and that is just a jank way to disconnect the internet temporarily

may as well powershell firewall switch 😂

[solar mirage]

Yes it is

Whole point

[hidden stream]

any idea why the owner of the tribe got kicked from his own tribe

[warm moat]

I just spent 4 hours moving about 100 structures in-order to fix my foundations, didn't do shit for me.

What are the restrictions when it comes to "cannot place, too many structures in the area"

[stray heath]

They've been deposed

[grand smelt]

Did any lose thing I just lost 4 level 400 trex eggs

And people told me they did a rollback

[meager arch]

Is there a way to remove trees that can't be harvested?
The entire Lost Colony base is covered in trees, which is very inconvenient.

[nocturne hill]

not with that level of info

[grand smelt]

What u have then

[maiden cypress]

my lost colony milestones are not completing, just saying complete on all objectives but not giving skill points and changing to new missions. anyone seen this before or have a fix?

[placid sorrel]

are gryfinns on valguero?

[grand smelt]

Anyone can help me get eggs I lost 4 trex eggs or something else or grown

[ionic merlin]

No they're not, you can add them pretty easily with ini settings or mods though.

[grand smelt]

Yo gaara

[ionic merlin]

Heya what's up?

[grand smelt]

U got any eggs I lost 4 trex eggs or grown

[ionic merlin]

I'm a admin on a private unofficial cluster so I can't help with that.

[grand smelt]

Oh I play-rag official

U don’t know any else

[ionic merlin]

Took one look at the game description when it first launched, said official for this is going to be a toxic cesspool and jumped straight to unofficial. So no I don't know any official players. 🙂

[grand smelt]

Can I join u

I do need a friend on ark

[cobalt harness]

Do we get shot by turrents if invis with drake?

[warm moat]

After 7 updates it's saying account privileges. Before the updates I had no issue playing from noon until 4 and there were no messages saying there was a new update since 5pm yesterday

[ionic merlin]

Family and friends only. I'm admin but not the owner so being more cautious than usual on who I allow in sorry. Primary reason is the owners kids also play.

[grand smelt]

I am in the 6th

Can I I have a lots of experience

And can help with any thing

[ionic merlin]

Don't know you so I can't vouch for you. It really isn't up for discussion. 🤷‍♂️

[grand smelt]

Ok

It fine

[sweet blaze]

Hey so I was wondering if you could still get tattoos on ASA ? Cause I had one on ASE.

[pine cove]

I just logged in to find that the bed I was laying on inside my base was gone (I was forced to respawn in a different location). Tribe log says that 2 greenhouse walls were destroyed while I was logged off (it's a PVE Server) and then 2 in game days later, I was killed with no explanation.

I attempted to put in a ticket, seconds after I submitted it is marked solves...

Anyone know if they actually read tickets or not

[undone otter]

they do but again 99 % of them is pointless

[pine cove]

So no chance of having my kit replaced?

[undone otter]

die to bugs will not get you help

always keep backup of stuff

[pine cove]

Ok, thanks for the insight

[undone otter]

has been like this even back on evolved

[pine cove]

I have been "Arked" before, but the level of gear loss this time for no reason is a litlle annoying

[undone otter]

know the feelimg lost tons over the years

18k hours on ase 4k in asa

[pine cove]

Yeah, have to go back to stripping before logging off I guess - got lulled into a false sense of security

[grand smelt]

Anyone plays Ragnarok

[stray verge]

Still crashing every server transfer

[tacit ether]

So veilwyn on series X don't have fur now? Looks like cat meets chihuahua

[warm moat]

If you want a decent no official cluster Loot Gremlins is a good one I have been on before.

[ionic idol]

all maps were fine until the update lol
Now 4 of them arent booting up lol. stuck in reboots

[undone otter]

some takes longer give it like 30 min if still try #server-reports

[warm moat]

This is bullshit. At this point I'm requiring a complete relocation of a full base all because "too many structures in the area" won't go away even after removing 100 storage structures from cryo fridges to fridges to vaults to dedicated storages. Like what the fuck are the damn requirements?

The only things left are 9 cryofridges, 2 Tek troughs and a Tek generator. Like what the fuck do I need to remove in-order to fix a foundation?

At this point I'm assuming the official server itself needs a reset. I'm starting to think that it doesn't understand that structures have been moved

[undone otter]

there is your problem official server

[warm moat]

Everything that I have moved, does not prevent me from adding more structures. But the empty space where they used to be still doesn't allow me to place things so at this point I'm assuming that my situation is the exact same as every other situation on this game. There is no rhyme or reason it just doesn't work.

Maybe wild card as a company needs to take their own motto and try again at a different profession

[verbal bloom]

What are u even trying to place?

[mild depot]

Can anyone help me? How do i update my steam cmd ark ascended server to the newest version?

I just set up the server yesterday and now theres an update but i ran the command app_update, it said it updated but it also says its still on 81.11

[ionic idol]

all our maps are not showing up for everyone now after the update

[mild depot]

seriously? dang

[warm moat]

Walls and ceilings. Still working on the main construction of the base

[fair obsidian]

My nitrado server shut down after my game crashed flying in the red zone in abberation. I can't even shut it down now to protect myself because it just says its updating for half an hour now. Game devs and nitrado are both jokes

[warm moat]

I started with a small 10x10x3 then built around it. Spent hours transferring to this server and rebuildibg

[sand socket]

imprint is meaningless for the target of a rhnio impregnation right?

[ionic idol]

all maps are greyed out and unable to join. 4 of them are stuck in a Restart Loop for over an hour

(we have 50-70 players online daily, all of which see the same issue)

@carmine lance

@heady dawn

[vale ridge]

how big is this update?

[vale ridge]

same here.

[tiny garnet]

How long is the teleportation section window after king titan has died until you get the additional levels ?

[bleak ridge]

How many of you are having your babies killed randomly and without reason on updates? The other day i had 10 adolescent managarmrs killed plus 2 adults. Today i had an adolescent rollratt killed as i logged in to do imprints.

The food was fine, i had no reason as to why it died.

[warm moat]

I believe you are right. I believe the base stats of the host is what counts I don't think you get the imprint bonus transferred to the rhino

[sand socket]

I'm still imprinting the bronto because I have nothing better to do while it grows up

[idle flower]

When is vanilla Asa going to get a stack size modifier built into the game settings, cant run mods without gamepass, not even purchased mods appear on xbox.

[warm moat]

Lol. Fair

[sand socket]

I tamed a bronto with really good weight and solid stam and health, breeding it with my squad of lvl 4 females to make kibble and well get the rhynio food

[warm moat]

I think all of them took less then an hour for me today.

[mild depot]

How do i update steam cmd to the newest version of ark

Nothing im doing is working lol

[dawn lagoon]

updated just fine doing everything normally

for me*

[mild depot]

do you run a server? thats the issue im facing

[dawn lagoon]

yes, thats what i assumed you were talking about 😛

[mild depot]

lol how do you update it

Im very new to this

[dawn lagoon]

use this in a bat file

steamcmd.exe +force_install_dir c:\changethis +login anonymous +app_update 2430930 validate +exit

[mild depot]

okay, thank you! ill try it out

[dawn lagoon]

be sure to change the install dir to wherever you installed the server files

[mild depot]

where should you put the bat file? or should i put this in the same server bat file?

[dawn lagoon]

put it where steamcmd is installed

you can also point to the steamcmd.exe in the batch file if you want to have it somewhere else but its easier to just put it where steamcmd is and make a shortcut

[brazen robin]

the bat file can be anywhere as long as you correctly put the path to the exe

[distant thorn]

Every time I try to exit the game it’s always saving error then it deletes the data where I left off at and idk what’s happening cause now I feel like playing just makes me lose hope and give up on trying to go back and start all over again

[brazen robin]

I never thought of using shortcuts 😂

thats way easier lol

[sand socket]

is raw or cooked better for healing dinos in terms of healing per item

[brazen robin]

singleplayer on playstation?

[dawn lagoon]

raw

[distant thorn]

Yep

[sand socket]

there has to be a faster way to heal up my rex

[dawn lagoon]

use pig, snowowl, or aureliax

[crimson ore]

Is basic kibble faster then just meat or berries for taming

[sand socket]

depends

[brazen robin]

only if basic kibble is its wanted taming food.

[sand socket]

on dinos it works for basic kibble is the best

on other dinos it's the worst

[crimson ore]

I’m just trying to tame some mammoths rn and I don’t wanna do alot of prep work for the food

[brazen robin]

could be too much stuff near you 🤷 try making a building somewhere else and saving in that to see if it works.

[sand socket]

they need superior kibble

[mild depot]

Sorry im really trying to understand but this is all so new to me Im confused on how the install dr works

[brazen robin]

I guess you don't really need the building on singleplayer lol

[warm sky]

Hi

[mild depot]

I dont understand how to connect the steam cmd to .exe lol

[distant thorn]

I did that and theirs nothings near me just an open field on the valguero map all I have are the thyco parasaur and a raptor but the minute I get the equus and try to save that’s when it says error even the that jeboa creature causes an error

[brazen robin]

at the start of the update bat you put steamcmd.exe if you put the path to it instead then it can be anywhere.
best to just keep it in the same folder tho, like the other person said. use shortcuts instead

[brazen robin]

thats weird how much free space does the playstation have?

[mild depot]

hm okay. what exaclt is an update bat? I have the "server bat" i click when i start the server, but im unsure how to make a shortcut connecting it all

my directory goes from Steamcmd-steamapps-common-ark survival ascended server

[distant thorn]

I have 297.3 space only have ark mh wilds mh ice palworld and fn for my little brother

[brazen robin]

when you right click it, will say "create shortcut" might be different on win11 don't know

[sand socket]

for mammoths in terms of normal food it's superior or better kibble exception and extrodinary then stimberries takes a lot and neuters taming eff then crops then normal berries then mejos (mejos tame a tiny bit slower but are higher effectiveness than other berries)
this is the order in terms of taming speed

[brazen robin]

do other maps work?

[sand socket]

ngl TIL you can tame with stimberries

[distant thorn]

The island I have no problems on but the others they just say error after trying to exit

[mild depot]

Do I create a shortcut then move that to the steam CMD folder?

[brazen robin]

thats crazy 😂 dododex says 7000 stim berries
why would you even want to

[sand socket]

with my settings it would take 1.5k stim berries for a lvl 120 mammoth

I could see someone taming shit like kairukus with them but kairukus eat meat

[brazen robin]

the shortcut just allows you to open the bat file from somewhere else. instead of navigating to the binaries folder to do it directly.
Its not required.

[sand socket]

i can't think of any herbivore someone may wanna tame that you don't give a fuck about levels and speed would be helpful

like you also can tame with incorrect kibble type but that's just ass

[brazen robin]

even then you'd just use any other berry 😂

[sand socket]

it's faster

if you don't care about lvl speed is better

[brazen robin]

you'd need narcotics tho

[mild depot]

Hm okay, when i use the command app_update 2430930 does that automatically update the game to the newest version?

Because it installs it over again, but when i boot the server up it says its running off 8.11

[brazen robin]

yeah, should do

are they looking at the correct folder

[cursive trail]

@nova sand I've sent you a message, some new players on our server stole a bunch of players stuff due to pretending to alliance and merged tribes and killing them and taking their stuff

[mild depot]

would you happen to know how to make it look at the correct folder?

[brazen robin]

its the changethis part steamcmd.exe +force_install_dir c:\changethis +login anonymous +app_update 2430930 validate +exit

you put the same location you used when downloading the server.

[brazen robin]

insiding isn't against the code of conduct.

[mild depot]

okay i think im beginning to understand! would i put C:\steamapps\common\ark survival ascended dedicated server? Since thats where its actually located?

[sand socket]

it would depend on the dino, passive tames maybe it would be helpful for but again it would have to be on a dino you don't care about level for.

dododex doesn't account for topor depletion it says that you need 1 narcotic to tame a lvl 150 mammoth with stimberries on 1.5x taming speed

other than veggie cake can I heal my bronto faster?

[brazen robin]

if thats the folder you told it to install originally mine didn't make those folders.

[sand socket]

does cryopod or leaving a dino out in the world heal faster?

[brazen robin]

use pig, snowowl, or aureliax

[sand socket]

I really should find a pig

[brazen robin]

why did they say snowowl lol. its snowl

[sand socket]

does lvl matter for pig healing?

[brazen robin]

food for longer.

don't think anything else matters. never used one tho

[sand socket]

I am a few maps away from my beloved

I'm doing story order

I would adore having snowy owl

[mild depot]

hmm now its saying command not found: +force_install_dir

this hurts my brain lol

[sand socket]

okay how do I get a ryhnio damaged enough to breed without killing it? how do I know that state?

[verbal bloom]

use magnifying glass

[brazen robin]

try putting start at the beginning of the bat file.

[mild depot]

to create a new bat file, do i create a new note then rename it .bat

[brazen robin]

the update one.

like just the word start before the steamcmd lol

[sand socket]

a magnifying glass seems kinda hard to use on a rhynio

[grizzled tapir]

it wont show the discord connection thing, am i already connected then?

[brazen robin]

tek binos

[verbal bloom]

they ASE

[brazen robin]

oh

[verbal bloom]

to them it's a glorified spyglass

[brazen robin]

little hits until its ready lol

best to trap it I guess then magnifying glass would work.

[verbal bloom]

caption fatdog work really well on ASE

[sand socket]

caption fatdog?

[verbal bloom]

youtuber, give a look

How long are rexes caught in large bear traps

[cursive trail]

@brazen robin it wasn't insiding it was faking alliances to get tribes to merge

[brazen robin]

pretty sure that counts as insiding.

its unlikely they'd do anything. it'd be basically impossible to know who did what 🤷

[ionic merlin]

Honestly I'd class it has scamming but at same time I'd say it falls under tribe politics and yeah WC admins stay well clear of that stuff. Unless they recorded the incident its going to be impossible to prove anyway.

[next jay]

does anyone know why gigas arent spawning in my single player extinction map?

[ionic merlin]

All they did in regards to the merge scams is put a delay on the accept button to make it easier to avoid and called it a day.

[brazen robin]

don't know why anybody would accept a merge with people they don't know.

[ionic merlin]

I'm not very familiar with extinction but my guess its because its a super rare spawn that doesn't have a dedicated spawner. One of the other users said your best bet is to kill stuff around the edge of the snow area to get them in.

[opaque plank]

Has anyone figured out how to get the Milestone "Block with a tek spear" to work? its not registering the block or deflects that are done. Seems to be another bugged Milestone

[next jay]

ive done that for a while and when I looked it up someone said the gigas spawn is broken so I dont want to keep doing that if they wont spawn anyways

[brazen robin]

they aren't broken. that was when ext first released.

[next jay]

awesome thanks a lot

[ionic merlin]

Accidents where they thought it was alliance. Before that it used to be same button has ride and jump off tames and the accept was instant. People on official pve used to jump on rafts and stand at the rider while inviting to tribe. You'd try to jump off the raft and it would accept the invite instead. Say good bye to everything you owned. If you didn't know about the exploit it was practically impossible to avoid once they got the invite off.

[lime bobcat]

Does anyone know how to get the circles to Pop up on LC missions and outpost defense because since transfers open mine don't come up, playing on Xbox

[dusky kiln]

Goto map and turn on missions

[brazen robin]

that hasn't been a thing for a long time. clearly that isn't the issue

[lime bobcat]

Ok thanks

[ionic merlin]

I know I was just saying that's all they've ever done in regarding to these types of issues.

[brazen robin]

because thats all they can do lol. they can't monitor all of them 🤷 people gotta try too

[ionic merlin]

I know not blaming WC for it in this case.

Think it was dollie who said they have a similar issue when it comes to pillar spamming. They can try and fix it but doing so will put more limits on the normal players and the toxic ones will just jump to something else to try and control the server. End of day the fix won't really solve anything.

[primal heath]

Imagine for a second that you bought a COD battle pass and half the blueprints didn't work...

Half of ark dlc are broken and they don't even try to fix it, smh

[serene seal]

Anyone else have a issue crying dinos on lost colony

[dusky kiln]

My Dino’s get slightly weepy but never full on crying

[acoustic forge]

Hello,
Looking for an answer for a problem im having.

Seems every map runs fine besides astraeos, im having micro stutters, and I dont believe its my system.
Specs:
9800x3d
9070xt
32 gb ram
Gen5 SSD 800gb extra space
1000w psu
If anyone has any clues thatd be awesome :)

[acoustic forge]

Forgot to say ive tried both with / without frame gen and using fsr still having the same issues.

[nocturne hill]

microstutter while doing what? and are you using fsr3, fsr4, or tsr?

[acoustic forge]

Not sure which fsr, running on Gamepass version.
Doesnt seem to specifiy which fsr either.

And just walking around, flying in gcm doesnt stutter which i found odd.

[nocturne hill]

that is a bit odd. flying normally? gcm may be too fast for stuff to even try loading detail

[acoustic forge]

Exactly!
Ik back in the ASE days with an Xbox flying in gcm would cause huge performance degrading after flying mock 10 😂

[acoustic forge]

And yes.

[nocturne hill]

hard drive loading speed is just abysmally bad by comparison, like 1-2% of a SSD

[acoustic forge]

Could it be a possible mod that could be causing this? It seems a bit odd to just be astraeos

[nocturne hill]

theoretically yes

[blissful zinc]

f/fs wc what the heck!!! i cant get on EU Rag as i crash after being of for 5 secs. 11+ times 🙁

[acoustic forge]

Hmm ill start turning them off 1 by 1 and see whats up

Also would uninstalling - reinstalling astraeos be a possible fix to try?

[nocturne hill]

very unlikely to do anything. if you have broken data, you crash

[acoustic forge]

I see, well ill do 1 by 1 with mods and see if that changes anything, thanks for helping looking for possible fixes

[tawny heart]

hi

[cobalt harness]

Where do i find osds?

[tawny heart]

Hi It's been on the update screen for about 2 hours, but it says the download is finished at 1%, but it's still applying the update and stays at 1%, the green part at the bottom.

[neat lance]

Hey guys I need help so bad. I had update on ark today. Im using the xbox app to play ark. The valguero update keep saying error and dont want to update. I uninstall xbox app and the game 2 time and I redownload everything. Checkd for windows update restarted my pc did everything the internet told me to do. But yet still not working the valguero files seems corrupted but nothing work cant play the game I am hopeless. thank for the help

[brazen robin]

does it allow you to stop the install for val?

[neat lance]

Cannot send a picture, but yeah i can stop the install. But the game dont want to open cause it keep asking me to do the update.

Everything updated fine just valguero that is bug

[brazen robin]

stop the install then type wsreset into windows search. a run command should appear. let that run then try again

[neat lance]

0x800080204 error this the erro the app is giving

still not working

[tawny heart]

Hi It's been on the update screen for about 2 hours, but it says the download is finished at 1%, but it's still applying the update and stays at 1%, the green part at the bottom.

[brazen robin]

maybe stop the update then restart the PC? also check the microsoft store to check if the xbox app needs to update.

[neat lance]

Already been doing it and still not working

[brazen robin]

did a cmd window open and close when you did wsreset?

[neat lance]

yes

Its fixed. I ended up trying to find the valguero file deleted it. then reset tje xbox app data, and run the command I after redownload valguere by itslef and now its working

[glad nymph]

i accidently synced my discord account that is banned on the ark server, its now showing up to unsync it in discord settings and ark isnt allowing me to sync a new account

[tiny aspen]

Any adjustments for XBOX S to reduce crashing, even just starting the application can cause crashes-

[nimble hinge]

how does the discord linking work for steam cos my steam account has been linked since i made this discord account and i dont see an option to add ark or discord anywhere

[potent swan]

I've noticed that the dragon dermis from the tek cave doesn't display correctly, its about 3 units down and 3 units behind the taxidermy base, at least it still shows up... the ice titan dermis just fails to display at all completely.... has anyone else noticed the same?

[gentle cobalt]

I'm new to the game, played a bit of ASE but a long time ago, I'm currently in a offi server but can't find any maeguanas in Astraes, is that normal? aren't they supposed to be common?

[nocturne hill]

i cant tell if this is a joke about how arbitrary item weights are. we dont know what unit they are meant to be, even

[cobalt harness]

Am having a issue where when i transfer to the island map and spawn my kit is downloaded twice and am basically duping

[brazen robin]

you can make the cloning chamber weight less with lost colony skills as well. 🤷 who knows how that works.

how do traits or dino weight reductions work lol

[woven pendant]

please if some one can help ive been having trouble with this all day, im on steam and for some reason the server list isnt complete like it wont show everything i have no filters, the list has slowly been loading and adding more servers for the last couple hours

[nocturne hill]

👀 technically it is an array of class filters with percentile weight reductions on the inventory component instance, iirc buffs can add their own additional ones or something.. i am guessing that just applies to all structures?

maglev

[brazen robin]

*I didn't mean from a technical perspective 😂 *

[nocturne hill]

i am hunting what i think is either an obscure unreal engine lod bug with texture baking, or something horribly wrong with directx shader compilation on 3 hours of sleep, the sarcasm is building up in the bloodstream

rendertarget2D has demons in it

rectangular section of pure demon pixels forms to the northeast of the player, depends on altitude despite altitude never factoring in to any part of the shader

[restive cosmos]

game disconnects people on my server upon entering the broodmother arena each time, any ideas?

[woven pendant]

no ones ever encountered this issue?

[cosmic nebula]

anyone else having osd dinos being dumb? like they wont come to osd and sit way back attacking the ground? its taken me 30 mins for 2 waves

[sonic zealot]

does anyone know the code to put in game.ini to prevent specific creature spawns in ASA? found alot of posts saying it doesnt work like in ASE

[tranquil oracle]

Anyone know if there’s a way to get skins back that disappeared after valentine day ended. I crafted all of them and half are gone. Even ones I had from last year lol

[forest lily]

@carmine lance
if i can get foundations above or bellow someone base and build up into it, is that illegal
im saying its not my friend is saying it is

[vocal oxide]

hey can anyone help me, yesterday there was update for ark 15gb i think and i left it overnight to download but when I checked it today it said its failed or something so i started it again now and it says i need to update 188gb?

[ionic merlin]

NPCReplacements=((FromClassName="MegaRaptor_Character_BP_C", ToClassName="Dodo_Character_BP_C"))

Still works but can be a little unreliable for some of the new critters. Honestly I would recommend using the B+ Spawn Editor mod instead.

[verbal bloom]

NPCReplacements works just like on ASE, but most of the time it didn't work on ASE, at most u can easily prevent spawns with it, not much else

[marsh crag]

The 188GB are Just the Files that are getting overwritten

[pastel shoal]

Can anyone help me, I’ve gone to add someone to my tribe but looks like I’ve pressed the wrong button and I’ve left my tribe and joined there. Do I have anyway of getting back into my tribe

[barren drift]

Do anyone know how to fix the issues when transferring off to other server I get kick off the game console

[uncut quarry]

Does anyone know why my scope reticles are blurry? Everything is running fine it's just my scopes and anything that zooms in has its reticle and borders blurry and low quality

[sand socket]

in singleplayer is there any problem with using the oblisk terminal as a storage box?

[ionic merlin]

You'll need a server admins help to get back in if it was a solo tribe I'm afraid.

[vocal oxide]

so there isnt anyway i can avoid that because some people had only 15gb not 188gb

[undone otter]

reinstall if you get to low and cant patch

[vocal oxide]

is there way i can cancel update because now i can only pause it and when i pause it mid download it goes back to 18%

[undone otter]

sounds like you have some bad files so do a verfie game first

[vocal oxide]

how do I do that?

i think i found it nvm is it at properties installed files?

[undone otter]

ye

[vocal oxide]

is says 34 files failed to validate

is it because of that 188 gb?

[undone otter]

i say it is worth it to reinstall

[vocal oxide]

I dont know because then i need to download all dlcs again

[undone otter]

i do that now and then

no limit here so worth it

[vocal oxide]

btw what does that mean

[undone otter]

that you have 32 bad files + 2 save files

[vocal oxide]

adn those 34 save files have 188gb size?

[undone otter]

full game is around there and it needs all that to update

[vocal oxide]

ok thanks then

but why does it reset when i click to pause

[undone otter]

likely do to the error it gets

[vocal oxide]

ok well i will just reinstall it then thanks for help

[undone otter]

hope you get it working

[vocal oxide]

yeah now i just need to wait 1 day to install with my internet speed...

[undone otter]

ouch min take a hour or 2

[vocal oxide]

wish i had your internet speed

[undone otter]

long live fiber

[pastel shoal]

Thank you, how do I do that?

[hollow osprey]

Would be the force join tribe command once in admin mode, you need to have your specimen ID number for it as well

[pastel shoal]

I’m on official PVE 😔

[glossy tusk]

is the milestone for blocking or deflec with tek spear buged?

[hollow osprey]

Well then, probably going to be very difficult to get ahold of those admins.

[pastel shoal]

Oh great, 🤦‍♀️ that serves me right trying to add my partner 🤣🤣 knew I should of stayed solo

[hollow osprey]

So sorry

[pastel shoal]

It’s alright thank you though ☺️

[hollow osprey]

You're welcome

[zenith nacelle]

im trying to add tek spear to the gladiators keep alpha mission, but the mission now drops only tek spears. I have append item sets set to true. What could be the issue?

ConfigOverrideSupplyCrateItems=(SupplyCrateClassString="StructureBP_Mission_Outpost_LootStructure_Attack_Training_Alpha_C",bAppendItemSets=True,ItemSets=((SetName="Untitled Item Set",MinNumItems=1,MaxNumItems=1,NumItemsPower=1,SetWeight=500,bItemsRandomWithoutReplacement=True,ItemEntries=((EntryWeight=250,ItemClassStrings=("PrimalItem_WeaponSpear_Tek_C"),ItemsWeights=(50),MinQuantity=1,MaxQuantity=2,MinQuality=5,MaxQuality=8,bApplyQuantityToSingleItem=True,bForceBlueprint=True,ChanceToBeBlueprintOverride=1)))))

[hard bobcat]

Is there a limit to how many custom cosmetics you can have installed? (usable; not “viewable”). I keep losing skins that I was using a week ago, then I go to the mod browser and lo and behold: it's installed—but as view-only. So I install it and it works again. But it's been like this for weeks. CCs that I used often and that haven't had any updates during that time.

[solar mirage]

Same for me

[bright tusk]

My large teleport doesn’t seem to show me other teleports on the map. It’s unlocked, powered and public
Any ideas?

[solar mirage]

Go kaboom

[finite garden]

Where would I go to ask about the Omega Lite Mod? I would like to report a possible issue.

[ionic merlin]

Modders usually have contact method like discord link in the mod description on the curseforge website.

[finite garden]

I only ask because it is a hexen mod.

I found. I was in the wrong discord. Thank you and apologies

[pliant lance]

So, here's an idea for a QOL update: When you have items that you can't transfer on your inventory, give me a list of what it is so I don't spend ten minutes guessing what it could be!

[vale ridge]

why I'm constantly DCing on Ragnarok but fine on every other map. everything is exactly the same. But on Rag i cant get more than 10mins game play. Any one have any ideas apart from re install game etc because I've done that to death. I'm on a xbox S

[next jay]

does anyone know what spawns normal gigas compete with on single player extinction?

[verbal bloom]

Everything in the border of snow

[next jay]

thanks

[turbid radish]

Hey I have a question can a purlovia dismount you on a rock drake I’m playing abb

[verbal bloom]

if it can hit u, depends on the position of both of u
