[river wolf]

no

[fringe rover]

No

[river wolf]

they dont get bonus levels but they still get taming effectiveness

[stiff oxide]

what is the difference

[river wolf]

this

[stiff oxide]

then what are bonus lvls

[river wolf]

theyre from taming effectiveness

im talking about taming bonus rn.

[fringe rover]

“Taming effectiveness” is what literally every tamed dino has. It affects multipliers on melee and sometimes food called “taming bonus”
“Bonus levels” are extra levels that things get from taming. Taming effectiveness effects these, but taming effectiveness (and taming bonus) is completely independent of them

[river wolf]

think like gigas. you can get 0 levels added onto them after taming it but it'll still lose 63k hp

[stiff oxide]

it sounds like deinons will aleays be crap compared to other tames because if i went and tamed like an allosaurus, it would instantly and permanently have 74 lvls on the deinon

[river wolf]

it would.

both deinonychus and magmasaurs got the short end of the stick

[stiff oxide]

so deinons are crap and shouldn’t be used

[river wolf]

No

[fringe rover]

Except an allosaurus has completely different base stats than a deinon. You can’t compare two different things

[river wolf]

theyre good for cheeses and are generally fun to run around on

[river wolf]

raptor?

[fringe rover]

Even then, their abilities are different

Can’t just say “oh they’re bad because bad level”

[river wolf]

my argument is "theyre worse comparatively, but not flat out bad."

[stiff oxide]

i started getting them because someone said they were good cave mounts

[river wolf]

They are

[fringe rover]

I would agree, except they aren’t worse comparatively
They’re actually better

[stiff oxide]

why don’t i just get like high lvl raptors or direwolves instead

[river wolf]

i dont care where youre from, not having the extra 74 levels hurts at least mentally when you dont see level 250+ on a tamed dino

[fringe rover]

I mean I guess?

[river wolf]

the former doesnt have bleed or climbing, the latter is your choice but no saddle.

there is no best caving mount, its up to personal preference

[stiff oxide]

does this mean deinons benefit extra from having very low oxygen or is that a separate issue?

[river wolf]

No

[fringe rover]

No it has nothing to do with that, thats not even a benefit

[stiff oxide]

someone said you can get higher health and stam at lvl cap if your oxygen and food are low

[river wolf]

low oxygen just means they have less points into oxygen because they dont have bonus levels. normal dinos have higher because they get 74 extra points. in the end, doesnt really matter since unless youre doing 254 mutations then its not a big deal.

[fringe rover]

^

[stiff oxide]

254 mutations~

[river wolf]

yeah most people min max and get every stat to 1 and then cap out the melee and hp

[fringe rover]

More like ~105 mutations. 254 is the point cap

[stiff oxide]

inbreeding mod that punishes you for minmaxing too much

[idle dove]

can rock drakes walk in lava>?

like gigas and Rex's

[river wolf]

all 3 would get hurt?

[stiff oxide]

if you totally max melee and totally min oxygen your deinon looks like an overbred pug

[fringe rover]

None of those can lol

[idle dove]

i swear ive seen em walk in lava.. just they burn and lose health..

but dont die instantly

[river wolf]

seems like gen 1 lava lol

[fringe rover]

Yes thats the point

They can but they die

[idle dove]

but like how fast..? cause i know the giga can walk past lava rivers on like Rag

[stiff oxide]

i saw lots of dinos walking in lava on fjordur volcano

[idle dove]

thats what im saying

[stiff oxide]

i was afraid to test if i could too

they also don’t seem to get stuck in the tar pits

[river wolf]

i have no idea what lava that is, if its gen 1 lava, you can breeze through it fine only doing 20 damage per second or so

[haughty glen]

Hey im havin trouble trying to get my wooden walls right. Like..im trying to make it face a certain way, like raw wood to the outside and planks on the inside

Basically it isnt snapping the way its suppose to

[river wolf]

as in the dark wood facing inward and then on top of that, light wood facing inside?

[stiff oxide]

press E to flip

and Q to cycle through snap points

[haughty glen]

Aah alr, ill have to check that tmr then because my service went dummy thicc

[river wolf]

if its like this, flipping wont work without looking weird

map?

[cunning ingot]

How can I tell if my argentavis has a mutation? The parents are level 155 and as a juvenile its 158 and my friend said that means its got a mutation but we're not sure.

[river wolf]

Are you sure its 158

and that both parents are the exact same stats and level

[cunning ingot]

yep it says 158 and the parents were 104 wild and when tamed they became 155. I havent leveled them up just so I can breed them

[river wolf]

odds are its not mutated then, the baby probably just inherited a mixture of stats that caused it to be 158
you can check the ancestry at the bottom of its stats and check the mutation counter if it got one

[cunning ingot]

oh okay, thank you!

[vernal rock]

drops

[river wolf]

aberration surface drops are nice, osds are good.

[vernal rock]

[fringe rover]

Fjordurs got some really good loot crates in some pretty easy to access spots

[stiff oxide]

where

[fringe rover]

Ab cave and lava cave are super easy to loot with a bat

[lapis forum]

^

Plenty of videos on YouTube showing how and where

[tropic meteor]

Honey cave is good too

[tidal snow]

I'm guessing this is proper place to post this. I'm making my own rcon app for my server as the rcon tool gportal links too doesn't have the amount of functionality i want. However, it does have something fun i want to implement. Does anybody know how I can send serverchat messages with a preceding name? When i use the serverchat 'string', it comes up as ':string' (where players get 'playername:string')

[warm kernel]

Any map suggestions for primal fear?(except mod maps)

[olive folio]

can someone let me copy their windownoeditor files pls, i think i fucked up my files and my game is crashing rn its not opening
its just keep saying fatal error
i already unistalled all the mods

[brazen robin]

delete the files, verify

[olive folio]

but if i delete do i lose all my progress

actually gg game is so fun but also so many bugs, after many years and still bugs are everywhere and theres no solution to fix

[brazen robin]

I meant delete the windownoeditor files. don't delete the saves (or save them outside the folder as well) and verify

[olive folio]

ty

ill try, i really hope this work

[molten falcon]

Anyone else having issues where scorched earth crashes back to dashboard? I didn’t have this problem on the island, but it’s a reoccurring thing in SE. it seems like entering certain areas does it. I can play for a while, No problems, but if I go into a certain ravine or close to a certain pond, it happens over and over

Guess I’ll start over on a different map

[olive folio]

welp it didnt work

@brazen robin may i copy yours windownoeditors file bc mine are completely bank now

[brazen robin]

if you delete them and verify they should come back if they didn't something else is wrong with the install

or steam is being stupid like normal 😂

mine aren't default so won't help

[stiff oxide]

can i solo ab cave with deinon

[latent coral]

Hey guys im on fjordur and like 3 nights ago was doing moderately ok someone even join my one man mission(tribe) to cure my swamp fever but since ive accidently killed sll my tames by being too near artevis birds my trike had a cow and tried to fight 12 other trikes and then and argentis broke in my stone hkuse through a crack it was lvl 150 and i tried to trap it it destroyed EVERYTHING im just trying to figure out where do you restart after that?

[river wolf]

im confused, what happened?
your trike had a cow?

[latent coral]

Yeah he saw me get hit and took off on the whole gang

[stiff oxide]

get an autoturret next time

and make a barn for your tames or keep them in pods

[river wolf]

turret is excessive, just have a perimeter of spike walls and keep any weak tames indoors/in cryos

[stiff oxide]

is the 150 argy still alive?

could start with taming that, sounds nice

[river wolf]

get some metal smelting, make a catapult and go tame yourself a karkinos.

[stiff oxide]

i built my first base on the 2 eastern islands on fjordur and have had no problems with predators

[river wolf]

i built mine in snarheimr mountains, after putting up some spike walls i havent had many attacks.

[stiff oxide]

theres an autumn one in the west that also looks predator-free and like you could build a nice bridge to the mainland

i found that one by swimming into a nearby air bubble from above and falling to my death

literally saw the air wall and thought "they wouldn't make you just fall to your death if you go through this, right? that would be stupid, it must be that antigravity lunar place or something, right?"

[river wolf]

the orangey place in north west? its classified as snarheimr mountains

it is definitely not predator free.

[latent coral]

I tried i kept dying i boxed her in and she came throught the wall withiut breaking it just glitchdd and fkew off

Then when i tried to recover a snow owl decided to do the same

Sorry its my 1st week i olay alot when i can so when i start something i gonall in and im now thinking either i should feel bad for my tribe buddy who i think is a bit of a smurf or im being oaranoid and he is giving away the locatjon through the skeeping bags

[pliant latch]

Every time I load in to a world if I leave when I’m on a pterodactyl I’ll spawn in on the ground this is real bad if there’s Dino’s below me does anyone know how to fix it

[river wolf]

you cant, when you log off your character goes unconscious and being unconscious means you cant ride things

[lofty leaf]

is there any proper vid explaining what triggers the giga rage and how to prevent it?

i usually dont bother with gigas cos of this rage thing but this time had to tame some cos i heard the bear boss in fjodor doesnt take much dmg other than fron gigas

[river wolf]

a short burst of a large amount of damage.

[vague garden]

Hi, I just beat the king titan on Beta and watched the cutscene, but it doesn't look like I got extra levels

[lofty leaf]

i see

[river wolf]

king titan doesnt drop extra levels unfortunately

[lofty leaf]

so it can be avoided by equiping high tier giga saddle ye?

[river wolf]

no, its based on damage recieved without any extra damage reductions

[vague garden]

oh, it doesn't? maybe someone should update the wiki

[lofty leaf]

oh

[vague garden]

or does the alpha version drop extra levels?

[river wolf]

theres heart icon near the stats area on the right. if it goes to full, it'll rage

[lofty leaf]

ye ik that

[river wolf]

king titan has an ascension but not extra levels

[lofty leaf]

but idk how much u need to push it to trigger the effect

[river wolf]

you need a lot of damage for a giga to enrage.

[lofty leaf]

i see

also where to farm asc giga saddle np in fjodor?

[bright mulch]

Which wiki? As there is 2 now. Official and unofficial one

As for the increased levels from Bosses. You need to Defeat

Overseer on the Island
Rockwell on Aberration
Corrupted Master Controller on Genesis Part 1
Rockwell Prime on Genesis Part 2

[lime trout]

Like he said one of the wiki is old

[safe grove]

Yeti cave drops, shipwreck treasure chests and bee cave drops

[wild pier]

I am having connectivity issues to my friends server, im either not getting a message, or getting timed out, however, it mainly freezes my game and i'd have to relaunch. I had this problem with the same friend before but the problem stopped after a day. He is 100% hosting as non-dedicated, and i am joining him through steam

[stiff topaz]

Where does it say that? Never has afaik

[safe grove]

I just checked aswell and saw nothin abt it

[frigid briar]

anyone hosted a server on gportal? im having problems with something

[stiff topaz]

‘Something’?

[frigid briar]

the setting arent updating in game

[stiff topaz]

Shut down server when you make your edits

[frigid briar]

tried it

still nothing

[stiff topaz]

Also it doesn’t read ftp edits.

[void relic]

Yes I have one

[frigid briar]

im updating it from the website, it shows that the settings are saved, but in game nothing changes

[void relic]

What are you changing

[frigid briar]

mating stuff, and taming

[void relic]

What number are you putting in it

[safe grove]

Mayb ur confusing sum setting with another setting

[void relic]

^^

[frigid briar]

ill take a screenshot of it, 1 sec

[safe grove]

Cuz when i played sp long time ago then i did that alot

[frigid briar]

matinginterval: 0.01
hatchspeed: 60
maturespeed: 100

those are the setting im trying to update

[void relic]

It should work

[frigid briar]

yeah but a rex egg still takes 2 hours to hatch, and a rex takes like 15hrs to be able to mate again

[void relic]

Are you trying with a new rex or still the old one

[frigid briar]

new ones, i spawn new ones everytime

[void relic]

Oh weird

Can I pm you @frigid briar

[frigid briar]

sure

[true patio]

hey

i need some help

[void relic]

What help

[true patio]

so.. i created a new world recently with my friend and i had already built a house and when he tries to place a sleeping bag he can´t place it

like... he can´t place anything inside the house

even with lots of space

[river wolf]

what does it say when he tries to place it

[true patio]

says that "its not possible to place structures here"

[river wolf]

can you place stuff?

[lapis forum]

Are you in a supply drop zone?

[true patio]

yes

[river wolf]

there you go then.

[true patio]

i dont think so...

[lapis forum]

Can't build in supply drop zones, resource spawn nodes, near caves.

Well at least some caves.

[true patio]

the thing is that i have built a house

he just can place stuff inside it

cant*

[void relic]

Are you in the same tribe

[river wolf]

is he in your tribe and does he have perms to place things?

[lapis forum]

Is he in your tribe and are your tribal settings correct.

[true patio]

we are in the same tribe and he is admin

[river wolf]

can he place things outside of your base?

[true patio]

yes

[lapis forum]

Interesting

[teal brook]

can anyone provide me with some server host links for ark? some decent hosts that can handle at least 200 turret limits?

for pc

[vague garden]

if I get the homo deus skin on extiction, will all of my survivors get the skin or just that one?

[river wolf]

the homo deus skin you can put on armour?

[vague garden]

yes

[river wolf]

i think you'll spawn with it with all your characters, not sure though

[vague garden]

oh, alright, thanks

[carmine roost]

Fresh character and need alpha brood for tek turrets any1 able to help me out? Just need a tuso or smthn to help:)

[somber panther]

i and a few of my friends started a tribe

and we built our own bases

we all wannted out of the tribe so we all left

[silver hearth]

can some help me i messed up my game and idk what i did lol

[somber panther]

and we dont own any of the houses

[river wolf]

because you all the left the tribe, use commands givetome or giveallstructures

[somber panther]

ok

[pliant latch]

Is there any point making crop plots really early game

[stiff oxide]

i like to start making kibble asap so i would

[marble hedge]

Or for sweet vegetable cake, so you can tame 2 ovis and breed them for their meat.

[digital ruin]

good day, I'm just new to ark "noob" I immediately went and do some mutations that I saw on yt and now my deinonychus are not getting any more mutations

matrilineal-2 mutations
patrilineal-23 mutations

are there tips on how I can increase the mutations more ? thank for the answer

[pliant latch]

Easiest way to get raw fish meat?

Really early game there is a 150 moschops I want to tame?

Prime

[marble hedge]

You can get more mutations, if you have more female breeders. And if both the matrienal and patrienal side is under 20 mutations.

[pliant latch]

I meant sorry

[stiff oxide]

which map? find a leedsichthys and scrape it

[cerulean trellis]

I have another question for you, I rather need help, it happens to me very often, especially with the Extinction map, that I discover the entire map and when I log out and return to the map, the entire discovery of the map disappears... and I don't know how to fix this problem - it mainly does map ext.

[icy basin]

im trying to make a customer support ticket and im not sure what to put in the subject box

[stiff topaz]

sounds like file corruption or not enough storage space

[cerulean trellis]

everyone has this problem for maps - ext + gen1

🤷‍♂️

[stiff topaz]

I don't 🤷

[cerulean trellis]

but you play in official sure?

[stiff topaz]

No

[cerulean trellis]

i thing this problem is for Unofficial maps (more servers have this problem) but i dont know how is fixed this problem?

🤷‍♂️ no one knows how to solve the problem, I tried several servers and I have the same problem with all of them, I'm not the only one (several players complained about deleting the discovered map)

[lofty leaf]

anyone tried fenrir boss with wyverns?

[marble hedge]

Im playing on official pvp, and it usually happens to me when I uninstall the game, or when the game or my pc crash.

[cerulean trellis]

It keeps happening to me, I've tried reinstalling the map, I've tried verifying the game and none of it helped

[raw sparrow]

can the fjordhawk drown if you have it on your shoulder underwater?

[blazing ember]

hello i think my game is bugged. i am doing the ice worm queen cave and about 3 are spawning where one should spawn and my dino count is at 1
can anyone help ?

[lofty leaf]

no, but keep in mind that when u r in lava, it does take a bit of dmg there, also in radiation area it takes constant dmg

[blazing ember]

???

anyone know a fix its very annoying

there are too many ice worms spawning. when i looked at a video there were about a total of 10 in the full cave

and in my world when i did it there was about 70

[limber oak]

for some reason most of my whistles dont work, is there any way to fix it? the only ones im able to use is follow (one), stop (one) and nothing else

[river wolf]

you probably enabled a whistle group

[sullen hatch]

surprisingly easy to enable one by accident

[remote atlas]

why doesnt my server show on the ark severs list when i select my survivors?
the only way i can join is via steamconnect: at my servers dashboard.

[limber oak]

how do i unenable one

[remote atlas]

my friends are able to join the normal way but im not

[river wolf]

@sullen hatch use your pc control magic and help this man

[cunning slate]

how do i stop my ichthyosaurus from dying to everything

pve

[sullen hatch]

I kinda... forgot

[humble notch]

I'm send to the bobs corner, can anybody pls help me ? I run 8 servers and for 3 weeks I keep having problems with The Center. It just shuts down when the last online leaves. I've adressed the multipliers and cut down on the drops to reduce the lag. There's no need to reinstall since I've bougth another server which does the same. When I check for the logfile there is none, created by the server on demand. The last logfile mentions closing the logfile for no reason. Help ?

[limber oak]

tame something else

[cunning slate]

ok thanks

[humble notch]

lol, i wished my problem was that simple 😛

[karmic spire]

Guys, after killing all the magmasaurs in their caves on lost island, are they gonna respawn and spawn sum eggs???

[sullen hatch]

yea

[grand night]

So I’m a lvl 35 and I need to lvl up to lvl 67 as fast as I can becuz im gonna tame a bunch of diplos, get diplo eggs, trap an allo and tame it and get an entire pack. Only prob is I hv no idea how to lvl up that much that fast? Anyone hv any ideas?

[brisk bay]

If... If I made a tribe and then I join another tribe, will my stuffs merged to the new tribe?

[karmic spire]

how much time do they take to respawn and same for the eggs?

[modern drift]

Depends on the tribe settings.

[lofty leaf]

its not bout time, go out of the cave, fly close to the world border in the sky, come back in, they will respawn with eggs

[karmic spire]

thx i will try and tell you if it worked, so i gotta go to the sky world border?

[modern drift]

If on a story map, try doing a noterun. Look up a guide. Crafting and demolishing large crop plots also give lots of exp.

[lofty leaf]

sky border or basicall anywhere far from the cave

[blazing ember]

........

[karmic spire]

k i will go to the desert

[lofty leaf]

far enough to be able to go out of render distance

[lofty leaf]

just go sky border, is faster and easier

[karmic spire]

kk

[lofty leaf]

just get out of cave and keep flying straight up untill u hit the border

[karmic spire]

e can you dm me??? so i can show you where i am

[lofty leaf]

wait

[karmic spire]

k

no one in the cave

no eggs, nothing

nvm theres eggs

but no magmasaurs @lofty leaf

[lofty leaf]

there r magmasaurs, hidden most prob

but then again, if they arent there ez for u to steal anyways

[karmic spire]

i got another question, has it already happened to you, that when you get your magmasaur, his smelting ability doesnt work?

[lofty leaf]

without dino spawns, eggs dont usually spawn

[lofty leaf]

not really, never happened

wdym by doesnt work?

u turned on smelting?

[karmic spire]

i got another magmasaur

which got a lot of metal in him

and when i try to smelt the metal

it doesnt work

[lofty leaf]

it doesnt smelt instant btw

time is same or higher than norm forge

[karmic spire]

ik ik but no matter how much time i wait

he doesnt smelt the metal

[lofty leaf]

hmm weird, is its weight over capped?

[karmic spire]

nope

[lofty leaf]

try putting it in cryopod and get it back out

see if it works

[karmic spire]

kk

imma try that, but if not, im thinking of the stack mod i got

[lofty leaf]

oh btw its not a baby magma right? its a full grown ye?

[karmic spire]

maybe its coming from that?

ye it is

[lofty leaf]

idk bout mods, i play vanilla

[karmic spire]

stack mod is so useful

[lofty leaf]

ik

many mods like the soul ball one is usefull too

[karmic spire]

yea

[grand night]

Im not on a story map but I will do the crafting technique, thx for the tip

[lofty leaf]

but mods sometimes mess up game files, so i dont like risking it

[karmic spire]

yea

[blazing ember]

PLEASE

someone help..

[karmic spire]

tysm @lofty leaf it works now

[lofty leaf]

noice

[karmic spire]

magmasaur best creature, he also cooks meat

is he more efficient if he only cooks one thing at a time???

@lofty leaf

[jovial oriole]

I have an issue. When I try to log into my Fjordur map (unofficial server) my comp freezes as soon as I am in game. I can /did open a different map (the Island) and play with no issues but I have restarted my comp, checked for updates of Steam, Drivers, etc. and still when the game opens my computer freezes and I can't even access task manager to close the window. Any thoughts?

[karmic spire]

you tried lowering your game graphics?

[jovial oriole]

shouldn't be an issue but I can try it

seems to me, if it was a graphics issue, it would happen on all maps

[karmic spire]

yea, maybe files corruption

[jovial oriole]

I checked and graphics was not even set at max but I was in "windowed" mode which I switched, while I was in there and it seems to have fixed. We have put a much work into this map and it would suck to have to start over from day one.

I did not change the graphics setting

[winter bolt]

nope seems the update, lowers efficiency the longer it takes the dino to be tamed now. I havent found the patch but that is what it seems to me.

[stiff topaz]

Yes, it does

[stiff topaz]

Efficiency has always lowered with each feed

[winter bolt]

No not always

[stiff topaz]

then you've never used a food inefficient enough to see.

[sullen hatch]

nope, always

if efficiency didn't lower at all then you could get level 225 dinos, which you can only do with bloodstalkers because their efficiency works differently

[winter bolt]

interesting

[sullen hatch]

and probably one or 2 other special cases that I'm forgetting

[stiff topaz]

~~ ~~

[sullen hatch]

I think only when its hunger drops below the food it regains per food iirc

[winter bolt]

does narcos drop it as well?

[stiff topaz]

Yeah tbf I don't recall the specific situation but it does

No

[sullen hatch]

no

[winter bolt]

also you said dinos at lvl 225, thought highest level dino on a map can be 150?

or am I mistaken there too?

[sullen hatch]

I mean after taming, like the extra levels gained from TE

[winter bolt]

right so highest level on map to tame is 150 + extra levels from TE

[sullen hatch]

yeah

[river wolf]

theres more dinos like that, like noglins

[stiff topaz]

cwyvs can also be gotten at 225 but that's via eggs so.. no TE

[river wolf]

voidwyrms though.

[sullen hatch]

those are just dumb

[river wolf]

i am going to start this again

voidwyrms > other wyverns

[sullen hatch]

I mean the higher level, not voidwyrms as a whole

I think it's because they're a child of wyvern, right?

[stiff topaz]

Why bob, why did you do it

[stiff topaz]

What is?

[sullen hatch]

the higher wild level

[river wolf]

they need that extra level to be actually competent

[stiff topaz]

Level ramps can be set on each individual dino

[sullen hatch]

so it was on purpose

[stiff topaz]

They could have changed it

[river wolf]

im telling you voidwyrms > wyverns

[sullen hatch]

I really don't like how voidwyrms are level 50 billion on taming

[stiff topaz]

Inherited? Yes, but didn't need to stay that way

[river wolf]

i mean it makes sense

from both a game and balancing standpoint

[sullen hatch]

no, it doesn't
If the dino needs a higher level to be viable then it's not very good

[river wolf]

are you just going to ignore the fact that tek and wyverns hsve increased levels and thus it would make sense for a tek wyvern to be level 50 billion on taming

[sullen hatch]

yes

[river wolf]

ok

[sullen hatch]

wyverns had increased levels because they're 50 years old and were egg steal tames (and were fliers so level 190 was enough to get the same stats as a level 225 ground dino)

teks having increased levels is understandable, so voidwyrms being level 180 would make sense

[river wolf]

why arent all the other flyers 190 then?

[sullen hatch]

?because they gain levels on being tamed

[river wolf]

they dont get speed either

[sullen hatch]

yeah

[river wolf]

why give wyverns the short end of the stick and let them lose out on 30 levels

[sullen hatch]

balancing, because they're 50 years old

back then it was a big deal

[river wolf]

how does that change anything

them being 190 and not 225 makes sense because they dont get speed but why doesnt the average ptera, quetz or argy be 190 then too post taming effectiveness

and you better explain magmasaurs and deinonychus too

[sullen hatch]

because they're much stronger than a ptera or argy?

magmasaurs or deinonychus I don't get
but hey, crystal wyverns

[river wolf]

so by your logic, it would make sense for voidwyrms to be level 50 billion because theyre much weaker than a normal wyvern

[sullen hatch]

it basically got them the same number of points as an average ground dino on being tamed

[sullen hatch]

no.... no it would not

wyverns had 190 levels because of balancing of 7 years ago

I really don't like voidwyrm's higher level

[river wolf]

its a tek wyvern though

[sullen hatch]

it's too high even for a tek

unless I'm high

[river wolf]

i'd be fine with voidwyrms being lower level (as in 180s) if they didnt copy the exact same wyvern formula but here we are.

[sullen hatch]

voidwyrms are just a disappointment

they look cool and that's it

[river wolf]

how is too high if theyre just maxed at 190, you know, like a wyvern.

[sullen hatch]

because wyverns don't get TE

[river wolf]

thats just 15 extra levels compared to normal tek.

which they need because theyre flyrs unlike normal tek

[sullen hatch]

also I was partially wrong because I was thinking their max level is 225

[sullen hatch]

it's the opposite...

[sullen hatch]

are we both high or isn't it 10

[river wolf]

wha

[sullen hatch]

"they're fliers unlike normal tek"
that means they'd need fewer levels to get the same number of points

[river wolf]

max level for tek is 270, voidwyrm is 285. no?

[sullen hatch]

hence by your logic we should reduce their max level

[river wolf]

oh yeah im on crack

[sullen hatch]

oh you meant including TE levels

[sullen hatch]

yo same

[sullen hatch]

I kinda forgot because I watched syntac with difficulty 6

[river wolf]

i mean i dont think the extra 15 levels is enough to justify voidwyrms a nerf, especially since they kinda need it.

[sullen hatch]

yeah it was mainly this

I still think they should have max level 180

[river wolf]

thats valid but i think they should get something else, either another breath or a nice ptera spin attack

[sullen hatch]

I think they should be tek dodowyvern

[river wolf]

the issue with that is why use a voidwyrm when lightning does what it does but better, since voidwyrm now has lightnng but weaker. same with the other 2

i think barrel roll would be better since you get speed that competes with tropical crystal on top of dps that could match lightning at the cost of a lot more stam. you also use the spin during taming

ooh what if theyre max level is 285 because you feed them mutagen

[sullen hatch]

I actually like that thought

[blazing ember]

BRO

Can no one help me i have been trying to gert help for like 3 hours

....

[sullen hatch]

we kinda buried your message

[fringe rover]

Honestly I was super excited for the breath when we first saw it, and I thought it would be something like the delphis emp that can disable tek stuff
Obviously it’d do damage to other things (or maybe not lol) but that was one of the things I was really hoping for

[blazing ember]

can anyone help :/

[sullen hatch]

what even is your question

[blazing ember]

i have a very annoying problem

[sullen hatch]

you know, you don't need to ask for permission to ask a question

[river wolf]

imma be real i was more excited about the osd in the background that came as a supply drop reskin

[blazing ember]

a

i replied to it

[sullen hatch]

ah, thanks

[blazing ember]

i saw a vid someone had 10 worms in total and i had 70 in the whole cave

[stiff topaz]

ngl thats not the weirdest thing for an iceworm to do

[blazing ember]

my dino count is at 1

[stiff topaz]

things are a buggy fucking mess. that said, got any mods?

[blazing ember]

and every time i fight them 5 appear...

[sullen hatch]

destroyall iceworm_queen_character_bp_c

[lofty leaf]

try not to use it as a cooker if u do not have tons of meat in its inventory cos if u have a very specific amount of raw meat in it and u want cooked meat from all of it, then that wont happen. when smelting is on its food goes down real fast and in that state yes he does eat stone but if u have raw or cooked meat in its inventory then they will eat those first

[blazing ember]

None bro

[sullen hatch]

this will remove the extras at least

[stiff topaz]

Any custom spawns?

[blazing ember]

only thing i did is allow pickup structures to be infinite and make it lvl 180 in ini files

[blazing ember]

what is that

[stiff topaz]

Then no lol

[blazing ember]

well its cheating

[sullen hatch]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[blazing ember]

cuz it removes all of them

like i fight 7

then i go back a little like 5 meters

[sullen hatch]

you can destroy all, go away and wait for another to spawn
however it won't solve the problem itself

[stiff topaz]

spawn in a new one- tbh that might break the barrier

[blazing ember]

Another 5 spawn

[stiff topaz]

iceworm queen is a different creature to the small one

[blazing ember]

spawn in what? an ice worm. how

[blazing ember]

yea im talking about the ice worms

[molten falcon]

On pc with the tether distance changing it to 99999 on non dedicated session work ?

[sullen hatch]

I wrote it before seeing that it was a recurring problem

[stiff topaz]

Just look at 2 of the extra worms, destroymytarget

[lofty leaf]

what is ice worm btw

[blazing ember]

5 spawn in the exact same place

[blazing ember]

but i want a perm fix

i did the cave and cleared all of them

[stiff topaz]

not the queen? thats normal

[modern drift]

Reskinned, weaker deathworm.

[blazing ember]

and the mfs just spawn in the hundreds again

[lofty leaf]

oh

[blazing ember]

i saw in a vid

[sullen hatch]

oh

[blazing ember]

only 1 spawned in every vid

like they didnt spawn with like 5

[stiff topaz]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/516122409947103247/618736726516695050/unknown.png

[blazing ember]

like in my world

when i fight 1 like 5 more appear

in the videos where they do the cave only 1 spawn

[stiff topaz]

probably someone else on the server cleared it out first.

[blazing ember]

.. io cant send the vid link

[stiff topaz]

it is normal for there to be a lot its literally where people go to farm horns

[lofty leaf]

spawns got diff factors too it

the number is kinda rng too mostly

[blazing ember]

its singleplayer btw

[blazing ember]

yeah but i saw like 10 videos

they r all the same they all have the same spawns

[stiff topaz]

cave spawns tend to stagnate over time but there were always loooooots of worms for me

[blazing ember]

let me msg u

i cant send video link

[stiff topaz]

there should not be only one spawn in the cave

[blazing ember]

no i mean

not like 1 in the whole cave

like i mean where they bury up

there 5 in the exact same spot for me

like in total in the cave there r like 70 which i killed

in the videos there r like 10 total killed

[stiff topaz]

Sounds normal for my experience.. with dino count 4 though

[blazing ember]

im like getting 5 spawning in one place at a time for whatever reason

[lofty leaf]

i want ur spawn rates man, my fjodor cave spawns so dead :(

[stiff topaz]

look at all those spawn points tho

[blazing ember]

dino count 1...

[stiff topaz]

why i mentioned my own dino count :P

[blazing ember]

what tf do i do

it isnt normal bro i went to get 1 red drop

and about 20 spawned in the path

[river wolf]

you go to another map because its crapnarok

[blazing ember]

like bro 20 for like 5 meters of walking

[stiff topaz]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/516122409947103247/618736726516695050/unknown.png

[blazing ember]

like wtf

in the video he didnt get 1 there

[stiff topaz]

you see how there's literally a path of them lol

[blazing ember]

yea i c

But ur on dino count 4

[stiff topaz]

could try overriding the container and setting a lower entry weight or lower max %

[blazing ember]

i saw in a post that people on 3-5 get like more to spawn

[stiff topaz]

actually i probably swiotched to dino count 2 at that point

[blazing ember]

but im on 1....

[stiff topaz]

because I had mods, disabled hibernation, spawns started working

[blazing ember]

wtf odes that mean

[fringe rover]

Ohhhh I see now lol
I was very confused why you kept sending a pic without iceworms

[blazing ember]

same

[fringe rover]

Or at least
Ones that I could actually see

[stiff topaz]

custom spawns, ill make you one in a min

[stiff topaz]

yeah vanilla deathworms are a fucking mess

[blazing ember]

dont want custom spawns

[stiff topaz]

do you want a fix?

[blazing ember]

i just want fucking iceworms to not fucking hord me

[blazing ember]

Yea

[fringe rover]

I wasnt looking for the tpose, so the tpose fooled me

[stiff topaz]

if you want a fix you'll use code that edits the spawner.

[blazing ember]

and how will i do that

[stiff topaz]

^

[blazing ember]

do i need to download smth

[stiff topaz]

just put code i send in game.ini

[stiff topaz]

ah yeah nah its always the tpose

[blazing ember]

where in that? just like

in a random place?

[stiff topaz]

those fuckers died the second i coukld chomp them.
Which was usually before you can see them!

check pins for how to find it

[blazing ember]

ik how t ofind it

but where do i put it in the actual thing

just randomly paste it in the .ini?

[fringe rover]

Anywhere in game.ini

[blazing ember]

k

[stiff topaz]

under the header

[blazing ember]

what is that..

[stiff topaz]

/script/shootergame.shootergamemode

ConfigOverrideNPCSpawnEntriesContainer=(NPCSpawnEntriesContainerClassString="DinoSpawnEntries_Ragnarok_Iceworm_C",NPCSpawnEntries=((AnEntryName="Iceworm 1",EntryWeight=0.01,NPCsToSpawnStrings=("Iceworm_Character_Minion_BP_smaller_C"))),NPCSpawnLimits=((NPCClassString="Iceworm_Character_Minion_BP_smaller_C",MaxPercentageOfDesiredNumToAllow=0.5)))

[blazing ember]

i cant put screenshots

aaaa

[karmic spire]

yea ik ik i got 9k meat for him lmao

[blazing ember]

[/Script/ShooterGame.ShooterGameMode] do i put it under this

[stiff topaz]

how well that'll work depends on how the spawner itself is set up.. i doubt it'll do anything tbh. might need a mod for it if that doesnt work

hmm might try % chance to spawn

[blazing ember]

can u tell me where to actually put it

[stiff topaz]

^

[blazing ember]

below the shootergame thing?

enable dms

i wanna send a screenshot

or add me for a sec

[stiff topaz]

ConfigOverrideNPCSpawnEntriesContainer=(NPCSpawnEntriesContainerClassString="DinoSpawnEntries_Ragnarok_Iceworm_C",NPCSpawnEntries=((AnEntryName="Iceworm 1",EntryWeight=0.01,NPCsToSpawnPercentageChance=(0.1),NPCsToSpawnStrings=("Iceworm_Character_Minion_BP_smaller_C"))),NPCSpawnLimits=((NPCClassString="Iceworm_Character_Minion_BP_smaller_C",MaxPercentageOfDesiredNumToAllow=0.5)))

[blazing ember]

do i put this or the other one

[stiff topaz]

This one

[fringe rover]

Just put it below the header [Script/ShooterGame.ShooterGameMode]

[blazing ember]

eclipse add me for a sec i wanna send a ss

[tight thorn]

I heard there's benefit of making smaller character. Are there any benefits of making bigger one?

Also is female having even smaller hitbox than a male?

[blazing ember]

@stiff topaz

[stiff topaz]

no.

[blazing ember]

Bro for 1 sec just remove l8r..

dont wanna break my game

[stiff topaz]

you've been told exactly where to put it. copy paste under the header

[blazing ember]

Ok

i saved the file now what

is that it

[stiff topaz]

Yep

[blazing ember]

do i need to do destroywilddinos now

[stiff topaz]

Yeah do so

[blazing ember]

k

[stiff topaz]

might slow it down if it only tries to roll once every X amount of time, since it has a 10% chance to fail. it's additionally capped at 50% of the container instead of 100%, but whether that'll actually do anything depends on how many worms to a zone volume there is.. hey @frail patrol will this work lol

[frail patrol]

:ping_angery:

[stiff topaz]

[frail patrol]

32 C in shadow mait, idk how you want me to read that

[stiff topaz]

hey i tested on perry first

[deft zodiac]

32? Lucky you

[stiff topaz]

tl;dr can you slow down spawns either with low entry weight, or by giving the entry a chance to fail completely?

[frail patrol]

no water for you mait

[frail patrol]

it might but you have to sell your soul to the printer gods and sell your body to the raptor at 0% interest rate

[deft zodiac]

Its' 40 C I'm dying

[river wolf]

40c is nothing

[fringe rover]

I tried to ping you and it pinged a random person called alex

[deft zodiac]

Still smth

[frail patrol]

i'm supposed to support either the english or the dutch

[stiff topaz]

XD Ok so ill test that next time im in the devkit then

[river wolf]

43c 💪

[frail patrol]

yeah that's my perry shield

[stiff topaz]

@frail patrol i have a trick

[fringe rover]

@frail patrol don’t be a perry shield

[frail patrol]

if there's something to fill them up, yeah. but it's going to be a pain and unreliable.

[fringe rover]

IT WORKED

[frail patrol]

wrong alex

check mycelium btw

[fringe rover]

Hmm idk
Same pfp, same description

[frail patrol]

DScrs

[stiff topaz]

Nope, nothing to fill it up, which is why i wonder if failing completely could work. If it only tries to roll every so often

[frail patrol]

oop doubt

[stiff topaz]

Cuz here's the interesting thing, I had success in slowing down spawners

[frail patrol]

yeah you will slow them down

[stiff topaz]

When i was trying to find a fix for only count, I was able to delay the surface overspawn and make a seeminly stable-ish container (basilisk) go beserk

[frail patrol]

but not if they're counter-restricted and underfilled

[stiff topaz]

Iceworms so no nice way to fill them anyway

Slowing down works fine for these purposes though, even if max cap can't really be edited

[stiff topaz]

To calrify the question: Do spawners only try to roll every so often? Eg does it only try every 10 seconds- or does it just go nonstop till it fills

[stiff topaz]

this makes me think the former but

[frail patrol]

in theory every once in a while but for a confirmation ping coldino and sign up for his onlydata at a 50 USD a month rate for 6 months while we're waiting on external tools

[stiff topaz]

XD hey i thought coldino didn't do spawn extraction!

[frail patrol]

he does code reconstruction tho

[stiff topaz]

but i'll ping him if it'll get me an answer sure!

ooh then i can ask about Larkator showing colours too

Oh he's not in this server

[frail patrol]

yeah wiki server

it'll take a while tho cause we don't have the tooling rn

[stiff topaz]

Wait are you serious that you might be able to reconstruct fucking spawn code??

[frail patrol]

haha

nobody is able to do that so don't count on much. but it's prolly possible to get some of it.

[stiff topaz]

👀 👀 🥺

that is

asduhyasyuhdasd amazing

Where do i sign up to his onlydata

i must knowwwwwwwwww

e v e r y t h i n g about spawns

[stiff topaz]

oh also on the topic, it feels weird that iceworms have their own page (as opposed to being a deathworm variant on deathworm page) and don't have an entry on creature ids, but mission creatures do and jugbugs share a page

jugbug spawn maps also show them half untameable half tameable.. and ig assume that they'll always spawn together

[uncut kite]

dont question previously decisions on the wiki

[stiff topaz]

[uncut kite]

you can blame alex for that

[gleaming kestrel]

i still cant fix the fatal error regarding mods

[frail patrol]

blame OG admins for that

[frail patrol]

you mean on a single map or between maps? older maps weren't regenerated but it's a plan

[stiff topaz]

Between different maps, that explains it

What about the fact that they don't necessarily have to spawn together? Would it be worth making them considered variants, or other dinos like them such as iceworms? like have spawn maps for 'Variant Water Jugbug', 'Variant Oil Jugbug'?

[frail patrol]

it's also a plan

[stiff topaz]

Cool 👍

[frail patrol]

but to be fully certain, make a ticket on Trello for both of these.

and assign me

[stiff topaz]

idk how xD

[grand night]

Is there a setting that makes more dinos spawn on ark ps4?

[river wolf]

dino count but idk if that even works as a slider

[grand night]

K

[grand night]

Is that in advanced settings or general?

Nvm

[mystic leaf]

i am mutating rexes, i have been getting melee mutated males and breeding them with perfect females until the paternal side is 20/20....now that im done with the melee mutations, how do i get 20/20 on the maternal side for the health mutations?

do i just have to get a bunch of health mutated females and breed them with 1 perfect male? like the opposite of what im doing now?

[red olive]

Uh, first of 20/20 usually means 20 mutations on the paternal side and 20 on the maternal side. If you have 20 melee mutations on the male, set that one aside and do the whole process again to get 20 health on a different male. Then get a female of one of your mutation stacks and combine the two

[mystic leaf]

if i get 20 health mutations using males in the process then wont it just show up on the paternal side?

like i have 20 melee mutations on my male rex, all on the paternal side. if i were to breed till i get a female with the 20 melee mutations for example it wouldnt be on the maternal side right?

[mystic leaf]

so how would i combine the two?

[red olive]

It's a lot easier to mutate the male side than a female side. So get the 20 health on a different male

[mystic leaf]

but how do i get the 20 to show up on maternal?

[red olive]

Then breed that male with a clean female until you get a female with the stack

Then breed that female with the melee male

[mystic leaf]

so if i have a female with the paternal side maxed out in health, and a male with the paternal side maxed out in melee, their baby will have both maternal and paternal maxed out even though the female has the mutations on the paternal side?

[red olive]

Uh, maternal and paternal sides don't really matter that much. If you have a 20 hp female and a 20melee male then breed them, you will have a 20/20 baby. But the next one with the 20/20 will be a 40/20 even though there aren't more mutations. The counter messes up a lot

There are videos on the whole process, the important thing to realize is if you have a mutated male and female and you try to stack them it'll mess up the counter and you'll believe you have more mutations than you actually do

[wide agate]

desmodus is rideable in any cave yeah?

[red olive]

Yeah

[wide agate]

[calm path]

Just btw, is there any fix for accessing RTS mode on an exo mek?

[slate sequoia]

What dinos should i use for the dragon

And overseer is the wooly rhino a good option

[red olive]

If you have tribe mates then yeah, otherwise no

[mystic leaf]

helped a lot, ty

[calm path]

I've been playing since launch with access target's inventory on middle mouse button, which is also the default button to use RTS mode, and even though theres an option to change the control to access RTS mode, it doesn't do anything (I have it set to delete), when I sit in an exo mek is still says MMB for rts

[graceful osprey]

I have a problem

[red olive]

Just remember, clean unmutated females, mutate on the male side

[calm path]

ngl, mutations arent even too necessary for stuff like dragon

just solid stat theris with plenty of veggie cakes

[graceful osprey]

idk why but sometimes ark doesent let me join un dedicated servers

[graceful osprey]

could you help me?

im from epic games

[red olive]

Spoken like a true sp player lol

[calm path]

? I play on multiplayer

default dino/boss stats

[red olive]

Then you got lucky lol

[graceful osprey]

ark is not possible to crack

[calm path]

not really, we've beaten it 3x with the same theris

21k health 500-600% melee, 130-150 armor saddles

like idk if people realize how broken veggie cakes are lol, +10% hp every 30 seconds

[red olive]

Uh, 130 armor saddles are not default settings

[calm path]

they really are

you get 90-100 armor saddle bps and crafting skill it

[red olive]

Yeah people know exactly how broken veggy cakes are

[red olive]

The cap for official is 124, you can't crafting skill past that

[calm path]

welcome to official, in general stuff is neutered, but the gap in damage reduction between 124 and 130 armor is next to nothing

[red olive]

Lol, you can't say welcome to official if you don't play on official lol

[calm path]

I did for 3 years lmfao

then I realized how incredibly toxic the community was and stopped

[limber oak]

anyone know how long it takes to raise a baby wyern on conquest servers?

[red olive]

So did I. You can beat the dragon with those stats if you have tribe mates. Not solo

[red olive]

Pretty sure conquest is 5x, you can look it up on dododex

[calm path]

124 armor = 83.3% damage reduction, 130 armor = 83.9% damage reduction, its a minimal gap

even to 150 armor is 85.7% reduction

[red olive]

The difference is getting a BP that good on official isn't all that common lol

[calm path]

genesis lootcrates want to know your location

[red olive]

I have opened like 10000 of those lol. I know my lootcrates jaja

ah, theres a vid titled "ark genesis 2 tier 3 loot crate opening" by jonna-x, he opens a bunch and even like a quarter into the crate opening he got multiple 100% armor saddle bps

do i have to hand feed baby dinos, or can they feed by feeding trough??

[limber oak]

where do i check on dododex

[prisma moat]

I cant join my friends non dedicated Server it says connection lost
On Steam

[calm path]

Until theyre 10% mature you either need to hand feed them or put them near a maewing on nursing

[red olive]

Change the settings to 5x maturation, and there would be a tab for it

[wild axle]

ok boss, thanks

[prisma moat]

I try to join my Friends non dedicated Server but it always says i lost the Connection

[red olive]

That usually means either your internet or theirs isn't strong enough

[calm path]

For non dedicated? It usually means you need to verify integrity of ark or both of you may need to launch the game with the -noBattlEye command

[limber oak]

i dont see the setting part where i can change it

[calm path]

On the mobile app, tap the three lines at the top left and click on settings / multipliers

Idk if theres a setting like that for the browser version

[red olive]

Verifying is for crashes and battle eye usually gives a different issue lol

[red olive]

I can't send a screen shot or anything of it. I would recommend, it should be a tab above the level entry place

[bitter brook]

bois is there any way u cant get dismounted by a desmodeus ?

[calm path]

Be faster than it, it cant dismount you if it cant reach you

[red olive]

Ride an Andrewsarchus or stego

[graceful osprey]

GUYS

Why cant i join un dedicated servers?!!!

I paid this game for nothing?

[red olive]

What sort of message is it giving?

[graceful osprey]

connection failed

[red olive]

Are you certain that the person hosting has the ports open to allow a connection?

If yes, then probably check their internet speed. If that doesn't work you could write a ticket on the support channel

[lyric flame]

Has anyone used Ark Server Manager? I was just wondering something, i used to play non dedicated with one other person with custom settings, now i want to migrate to server for more stability, can i just import the game and gameuser.ini to have the same settings as before?

[earnest prism]

Whats the best dino for caving?

[calm path]

depends on the cave, but most caves megatherium will do best (if it can fit)

but say for example hard ice cave on island, theres no bugs and its a big cave so big theropods like allos, rexes or even a giga would shine there

Or .8 I think

[grand night]

Pro players, what would u do if u were in my situation? I hv a lvl 125 trike that does over 1k damage, hv 2 pt’s around lvl 110, 1 pt around lvl 75 and 1 pt around lvl 25. I made an allo trap to trap an allo thats at a beach close to my house, problem is there’s 2 of them and i can only fit 1 in the trap. I dont hv an anky so cant get much metal that easily, my best long range weapon is a crossbow so how tf do I kill one of them and then lure the other into the trap without getting harassed

[red olive]

Uh, sounds like your Dinos do a lot of damage, use your pt to kill the low-level allo, let the other one eat it to heal, then you should be good to go

[red olive]

People usually use baryonyx, sabers or wolves

[marble hedge]

Just get on a big rock and kill the allo with your crossbow, they dont have much hp

[errant pulsar]

Does the whip actually let you pick up every dropped item around you? Because I know if my character got a stack of metal he would be encumbered, but if I dropped like 3 does the whip put all of that in my inventory?

[river wolf]

yea

you can do the same without a whip but at a shorter range using X on xbox

the island bosses and the fenrir boss should give tekgrams not sure which, would assume the island bosses give the same as they normally do.

whats the question.

[toxic trail]

Is turtle taking bugged or something

[brazen robin]

if you can get primal crystal use that.

[wraith pawn]

Stand on top of it and feed it the crystal

[brazen robin]

its a wyvern. use a trap.

[plush swift]

would an imprinted bary be enugh for underwater caves on island

[hot summit]

im having an issue with my self hosted private ark server where the game ini doesnt register

it doesnt get deleted or wiped like ive seen other players ini files do but mine just doesnt change the server

anyone got some ideas why that may be happening

[placid vector]

no...A basilo would be best because it doesn't get affected by jellyfish

[plush swift]

is there any better location to look for them than around herbivore island?

[molten falcon]

so ark wont let me join server if im not on the same version as server is there a way to go back to a previous version of ark

[placid vector]

Just go looking at the bottom of the ocean with bary and scuba gear but pay attention and make sure no jelly fish are near

[somber panther]

Im having an issue where i left my tribe

and lost privliges to all my dinos and structures

and i found that if you do the admin command Forceplayertojointargettribe it will re add me to it

but i need admin commands and my friend wont let me have it

is there any other way i can rejoin a tribe that no one is in?

[plush swift]

well yeah i did that before but i found 2 low level so this is going to be boring

[placid vector]

Just kill them untill you find a high level

[lapis pecan]

i need help with gen 2

im having a bug and my charicter is stuck

[earnest prism]

Guys Im trying to breed my dire wolves. The mating bar was full and now it says gestation, can someone tell me the whole process?

[red olive]

Wolves are a gestation creature, so after that finishes you'll have a baby wolf

[earnest prism]

ohh so not a fertilized egg?

[brazen robin]

wolves don't lay eggs no

they are infact mammals

[earnest prism]

ohh ty

What should i do under gestation progress? And how do i raise the baby

[brazen robin]

gestation, just give the mom food.

baby needs food and imprint.

[earnest prism]

Oh alright

Whats a mutation

[brazen robin]

whenever the offspring gets a higher stat then the parents or color (both happen at the same time but can be invisible)

if a stat mutation effects a hidden stat or speed. and if a color mutation effects a color region thats unused or changes to the same color

[stiff oxide]

wolf egg

[earnest prism]

ok thanks

[lapis pecan]

it wont let me track missions on gen 2

is this a bug? i just want to leave

[earnest prism]

ye sounds dumb lol

[stiff oxide]

i guess there is that in pokemon

[brazen robin]

are pokemon mammals tho?

[lapis pecan]

my rock drake is starving will someone PLEASE help me

[brazen robin]

could just look like a mammal :P

[brazen robin]

nameless venom

[lapis pecan]

no

[brazen robin]

if its an adult meat

[stiff oxide]

pod it

[lapis pecan]

i know

[brazen robin]

cryo pod

[lapis pecan]

i am stuck on gen two

[brazen robin]

gen2 has no nameless venom

[lapis pecan]

he is on abberation

i cant leave gen 2

[stiff oxide]

:(

[lapis pecan]

idk what to do

[brazen robin]

nothing you can do 🤷

[stiff oxide]

call a tribemate?

[brazen robin]

that might work

[lapis pecan]

so my charicter is just stuck here forever?

[brazen robin]

how are you stuck?

[lapis pecan]

im solo :/

[brazen robin]

if the server is down you need to wait until its up

[lapis pecan]

i cant track or start missions and half of the map is missing

[acoustic dock]

duuuuude i still cant get loot crates anywhere in singleplayer, i prevented hybernation but still NO cares in any caves dammit

[brazen robin]

what?

relog?

[acoustic dock]

its just irritating at this point, im level 104 and still have all primitive gear cus i physically cant get blueprints

[compact sierra]

bluh...

[lapis pecan]

can we join a Channel so i can just show you? its rly hard to explain

[lapis pecan]

i did\

[compact sierra]

I am back, with the exact same issue.

[brazen robin]

verify your game. not much I can do to help 🤷

[compact sierra]

Is there -any- reason someone can think of that'd cause an entire shelf in Aberration to not respawn resources?

[brazen robin]

singleplayer?

[compact sierra]

Multiplayer.

[brazen robin]

official, unofficial, non-dedi?

[compact sierra]

Dedicated unofficial, via server host

[brazen robin]

nope, can't think of anything then. just time 🤷 make sure there isn't any structures near there.

[acoustic dock]

what about a reason for loot crates to flat out never spawn and artifacts extreamly rareley

[brazen robin]

singleplayer?

[acoustic dock]

cus i done these caves unironically close to 30 times and got 1 artifact and 1 yellow crate

yes singleplayer, and no preventhybernation didnt do anything

[compact sierra]

The artefact respawns very slowly, crates Idk

[brazen robin]

singleplayer just has issues.

[acoustic dock]

this full game just has damn issues

[brazen robin]

singleplayer has more issues then

[acoustic dock]

ok so now what, i just dotn get blueprints or artifacts

[brazen robin]

just time. sometimes the nodes get removed but rarely for drops/artifacts

[compact sierra]

I'm just at a loss honstly for my issue, lol. I had it happen once before, and I -thought- I figured it out when I removed some modded stuff from my base. That stuff... isn't around right now, and still it's happening

[acoustic dock]

its just a bit of a mood ruiner when i dont wanna play on a server, i go to play singleplayer, then discover all of my tames have beyond broken stats cus singleplayer settings just does that, then i gotta go and figure out a way to make growing babies not take 3 hours each but still be able to fully imprint them and then still need to figure out how to get blueprints cus caves are broken

[lapis pecan]

it says missing game file what do i do

[brazen robin]

nothing, it does everything on its own

[lapis pecan]

if i go to my main server with a new character will i still have access to my base?

[acoustic dock]

at this point i think im just gonna give up on singleplayer man

its just not worth it

[brazen robin]

lots of people host their own dedi to get away from those issues.

some even rent them

[acoustic dock]

i dont know about any of that stuff man

[burnt flame]

I'm starting to occasionally see creatures with weird orange ring like glowing effect around them that aren't alphas. What does that mean?

[acoustic dock]

like idk how to work dedis or ini stuff

[brazen robin]

there are guides. can use ark server manager as well

[acoustic dock]

could be pack leaders?

[brazen robin]

might be the yuty debuff

[burnt flame]

I'm very far from where Yuttys live, it was on a regular raptor.

[acoustic dock]

i mean like idk what ini settings to use that are like not op or not taking 7 years to do anything

specifically breeding and imprinting timers are just a headache

[stiff oxide]

i have mine on 3x most things which is event rate on official servers

[acoustic dock]

cus half the tutoreals on yt are just like instant imprints

[brazen robin]

mods?

[stiff oxide]

raptors have pack leader i think

[burnt flame]

0, playing full vanilla. I think it's the same thing that I see on Hyenadons sometime.

[acoustic dock]

thats pack leader buff yeh

[burnt flame]

What does that do?

[acoustic dock]

some creatures form packs and the highest level ones get that effect to show that their the leader

hynadons, raptors are the ones that come to mind

[brazen robin]

yeah. direwolves also do it

[burnt flame]

So killing them should scatter the rest or?...

[acoustic dock]

to my knowledge its mainly an indication lol, not sure

[brazen robin]

most dinos just hang around each other randomly.

the pack buff will make them lock onto the same dino tho I believe

if you kill the leader a new one shall take its place as well.

[acoustic dock]

so i got a fjourdur singleplayer that i kinda think i have working breedint / inmprinting rates, if i just hoste it as a dedi on the same map will my world still be the same?... cus i dont really feel like starting over....

[burnt flame]

Ah, so it's just a buff indicator but no point thinking about how to counter play it, just murder them all.

[brazen robin]

yeah

[acoustic dock]

and ona dedi the whoel crate stuff aint broken?

[brazen robin]

shouldn't

[compact sierra]

merf...

[burnt flame]

Why does some supply drops seem to have an orange halo around them? What does that signify?

[compact sierra]

Higher quality items.

[brazen robin]

supposed to mean better quality. mostly it just means a medium crop plot bp

[compact sierra]

Not better items per se, but items within have a higher quality/ stats

[burnt flame]

Huh, that's cool. Thanks.

[acoustic dock]

so i can just instead of pressing singleplayer, press host non dedicated server on my fjord map and all my settings and save should be the same but the issues of caves fix right?

[burnt flame]

I think I got my journeyman bary saddle from a yellow or purple one that had a ring, best thing I found so far even tho half of yest went on a struggle to tame a 140 bary

[brazen robin]

non-dedi is just singleplayer with a hat on. same issues

more actually tether causes some issues

[acoustic dock]

so i use a dedicated server instead

and it should be the same save and stuff? or will it start me over

[brazen robin]

yes, but they use different saves and you can't play at the same time when you go through the game

[acoustic dock]

why is this game such a headache man...

but for the rest it should just use all the same settings right

[brazen robin]

it should use it

[twilit plinth]

I need healp

[acoustic dock]

its telling me to make sure my NAT type is open, what does that even mean...

[brazen robin]

internet stuff just ignore it.

[twilit plinth]

I was playing on a smalltribes server on OC, but when i logged on today, i cant find it, I also cant find any OC smalltribes servers

[brazen robin]

#server-reports might be down

[twilit plinth]

but my friends are playing on it

i can join them yes, but what happens when its only me on

[brazen robin]

is it favorited?

[acoustic dock]

uh... i pressed the dedi thing and it closed the game and opened a command prompt thing... how do i join this thing?...

[brazen robin]

if you run it through the game you can't play, said it before.

[twilit plinth]

it was, but i cant find it, the play last session button isnt even working

[acoustic dock]

then how do i run it and play it?....

[brazen robin]

its your internet then restart your router 🤷

[twilit plinth]

i did man, im in asia, but i can get 40 ping on OC, i dont think its internet

the only smalltribe servers i can find are in na and eu

[brazen robin]

I meant with your firewall. its not allowing you to see it. try restarting stuff until you can see it again.

[proud patio]

Well, so i followed multiple sources of how to change the max difficulty on a sp save, even noticed i had misspelled the command line in the ini settings (after 5 months..), but now ingame it still shows "difficulty level: 1.0" - i set the override to 10, will it still work?

[brazen robin]

I use Ark server manager.

[brazen robin]

ingame is showing the offset not the difficulty. if its put in correctly yes.

make sure you dino wipe :P

[proud patio]

Alr thanks, i think i have an idea to how i can check it too, in case i messed it up further

[twilit plinth]

ok I restarted everything and it still doesnt work

[pastel yew]

can a male hesperornis lay eggs? (or just golden ones at least)

[brazen robin]

are you on steam? see if you can see it with steam servers

[brazen robin]

doubtful

[twilit plinth]

how?

[brazen robin]

top left of steam, view, servers, favorites. should show ark servers there (will show tons of steam games :P)

[twilit plinth]

ok ill try that

i found it

ur a lifesaver @brazen robin

[small topaz]

Anyone know how to fix the “no sessions found” when trying to join unofficial severs?

[limber oak]

Anyone know how long it takes to raise a wyvern on 5x rates?

[brazen robin]

with or without singleplayer settings?

[small topaz]

About 19h I think

[brazen robin]

yeah 18h30 minutes

[limber oak]

I'm on conquest servers so without I think

[brazen robin]

should be 18 hours 30 minutes then

[limber oak]

Ok

[fair geode]

try checking to see if you have only show password protected servers, also if you're searching up a server make sure you have correct spelling

[small topaz]

Nope…

I’m not searching and show password protected is off

[fair geode]

huh, well it could e you nat type isn't open as well

[small topaz]

Nat type?

[small topaz]

I was able to join unofficial severs 30 min ago…

[fair geode]

im guessing you've already tried restarting your game, xbox, and wifi right?

[small topaz]

Nope it just started working this is dumb

[final vale]

does increasing melee increase the healing rate of the snow owl or no

[brazen robin]

I haven't seen that anywhere

[brazen robin]

wiki says this in its patch notes "Encapsulate healing amount is now based on the Snow Owl's base Health instead of the healed creature's base health"

[final vale]

ok thank you

[hollow osprey]

so I was just taming a t rex on a raft. It was at 89%, I looked away for a few seconds, then heard it make a noise. It wasn't in the taming pen. Instead, it was dead on the sea floor. Any ideas what could've killed it? My raft has stone foundations.

[brazen robin]

could've run out of oxy

ark is ark.

[hollow osprey]

from the raft? do raft taming pens just not work?

[brazen robin]

platform saddles in general can glitch.

[hollow osprey]

is there anything I can even do if i notice an unconscious dino losing oxygen while taming on a raft?

[red olive]

Not really

[brazen robin]

if you see it losing oxygen, moving it closer to the beach can help but also might do nothing 🤷 it just depends how much the dino is glitching through the raft

[hollow osprey]

unfortunate... at least it was only lvl 52. we'll call it a test run.

[pastel yew]

you could try pulling it to land with a lasso but

-dunno if that works on larger creatures (probably not)
-you might have to break stuff built on the raft to get it off

[somber panther]

my friend deleted the tribes and the components so all the dinos and bases are gone D:

[olive folio]

is there anyway to restore a save from a world? Because i can open a new world and play normally but my old worlds whenever i try to open them it just crashes and say assertion failed, idk if its a problem with my saved files cuz i clearly did not touch my files at all. Can someone help me with this because i have a lot of good memories in my old world.

[heady stag]

how do you remove a shoulder mounted dino?

[brazen robin]

spam F I believe

[burnt flame]

Is it just me or some nights are randomly colder than others?

[pastel yew]

If I leave in singleplayer while doing a passive tame will it reset the progress?

[red olive]

It should stay where it left off, as long as it closes properly

[pastel yew]

aight, good to know

[feral sedge]

at what fortitude do I become "immune" to diseased leeches attaching to me

I'm staring at one just missing constantly, for a couple minutes now, and it's getting annoying

[red olive]

You don't become immune to them lol

[feral sedge]

why won't it attach, then?

[brazen robin]

why do you want it to attach?

[feral sedge]

to get the swamp fever trophy

[brazen robin]

ah.

[feral sedge]

like I looked at the diseases page, fine, that says I get up to 80% resistance, but this thing is missing every bite attempt on me and the noise is obnoxious

it did it again I was in my campfire grabbing the wood out of it and tried to equip my federation tek armor but it fucking vanished instead

[bright mulch]

@feral sedge what's your fortitude?

[feral sedge]

100

[bright mulch]

Oh

[feral sedge]

because troodons suck

[bright mulch]

Yea that will make your achievements hard to get
