I'll try that, chef. I'll keep you posted.

[still acorn]

yes dino in 150

[opal osprey]

Trying to get my hatch/mature/imprint settings nailed down... having the most difficult time. Trying to set Hatch and Mature to both 10x and imprint to be spaced out evenly across the board for that speed... any suggestions?

[sly storm]

@silver obsidian my bad, also remove the "MaxDifficulty= True/false" line from the game.ini

[silver obsidian]

oh well, I'll take that off too

[lavish wyvern]

any idea about non-dedicated server not working without mods?

[gentle turret]

Hey all is it a bug that DinoCountMultiplier won’t go above 1.0 on ASA?

[sly storm]

I'm still messing with mine as well. Seems my settings used in ASE aren't working the same way.

[graceful jewel]

Any PVP servers with offline raid protection? With a large player base

[opal osprey]

ok, its not just me then

someone needs to make a calculator for those settings lol

[sly storm]

No doubt! Also havin issues getting gather rates increased on dinos and players: and ain't found a way to increase max number of gennys or tree platforms in an area lol

[frail crescent]

There is, Google Ark Imprint Calculator

[barren swan]

If anyone is interested in hosting an ARK Ascended server on Linux, I built a docker image that does just that using proton. It also has a few scripts to make life a bit easier :) You'll find it on github, azixus/ark_ascended_docker

[final eagle]

Hey Guys I'm trying to reduce the time for Cuddles / imprinting for my dinos I have the setting in GUS.ini but doesn't seem to be working.

Current settings:
GUS.ini
AllowAnyoneBabyImprintCuddle=True

Game.ini
MatingIntervalMultiplier=0.020000
BabyCuddleIntervalMultiplier=0.2
MatingSpeedMultiplier=8.000000
EggHatchSpeedMultiplier=5.000000

Did something change and the cuddleinterval needs to be changed inverse of what I have?

[frail crescent]

Whats ur maturation time multiplier?

[cinder hare]

Do you have a pet already on your back. I wasn't able to tame an otter or pick up a fish without taking my compy off my back and then it worked.

[final eagle]

BabyMatureSpeedMultiplier=10.000000

[pallid bone]

for game.ini [/Script/ShooterGame.ShooterGameMode] needs to be the first line

[frail crescent]

So you would lower the BabyCuddleIntervalMutliplier what is your ideal Cuddle grace period in between?

[gentle turret]

Hey all is it a bug that DinoCountMultiplier won’t go above 1.0 on ASA?

[brazen goblet]

If your server is crashing on load; I might be able to fix it. It only took almost 3 hours of troubleshooting. I know which files are corrupting and how to restore them. Just dm me and ask nicely.

[silver obsidian]

SUPER! It works, thank you very much!

[cinder hare]

That's good to know. I was also having the same issue. I'll try this and see if it works. Thanks for the confirmation

[timid tiger]

look at the table: ark.fandom.com/wiki/Difficulty

@silver obsidian i have DifficultyOffset=2.7142 OverrideOfficialDifficulty=10.000000
and max level on my server for wild is 300

[spring ruin]

I have successfully downloaded and installed the required software, and I am currently working on configuring the necessary port settings to facilitate user access. However, I have encountered certain challenges in the process. CAN ANYONE HELP PLZ!!!

[barren swan]

You can dm me

[high coyote]

Dino spawns are broken atm in the announcement ced said they will be addressing that so that could be why that is not working

[zinc elm]

anyone knows why my dinos cant harvest berries? Trike isnt working only with thatch and wood...

[brazen goblet]

what multipliers are you using?

[zinc elm]

official smalltribe

[brazen goblet]

and you can hand harvest still?

[zinc elm]

ye, no problem with it by my own

[opal osprey]

thank you

[brazen goblet]

are you using the solo farm mod? It has settings to drop unwanted resources and they may be following you.

[gentle turret]

Ah maybe, but its odd that its capped at 1 but can go down

[zinc elm]

nope, not a single farm mod

[brazen goblet]

try cheat gmsummon "Equus_character_bp_unicorn_c" 150
and see if it gathers berries. That will tell us if it is just the trike or everything. Some of the grass is fern like and not harvestable.

[bright raven]

How do i turn off tree's in ASA, i know ASE had a command or .ini file for it.

[modest nexus]

Dumb question from someone who's never done this before, I followed the pinned video to make my own dedicated server using my PC and it's all working as I wanted, mods and all, except using admin console-commands while in server. I set an Admin password but doing EnableCheats <Password> isn't actually activating anything. Is there an issue with this on ASA unofficials or am I just doing something wrong somewhere?

[pallid bone]

I had a similar issue, type in th encablecheats adminpassword like normal but I think only very specific cheats work after. To wipe dinos I had to use "Admincheat destroywilddinos" instead of just destroywilddinos

[final eagle]

Hmm maybe like ever 5-15 minutes grace period

[twilit cove]

is there any way to add dino spawnlocations in singleplayer? want to play svartalfheim and it currently has no mosa/tuso/plesio spawns. additionally some biomes feel pretty empty dinowise :S

[frail crescent]

Just so you know, the lower you go, the MORE you have to imprint, you can aliviate alot of the repetative by adding BabyImprintAmountMultiplier= and that will boost the amount PER imprint. But a 14 minute cuddle time is BabyCuddleIntervalMultiplier=0.03

[modest nexus]

I figured it out lol. In the process of setting up the start.bat and everything, I think I missed a space somewhere because it made the whole line after my admin password as part of the admin password. I went into the ini to see what it was exactly and once I copy-pasted it ingame, it worked fine.

[pallid kestrel]

Are mods causing issues for anyone? We tried the primitive cryo one and it was disastrous

[brazen goblet]

generally you need to make a mod to add spawn locations. It is possible if you know the spawn entry id to add dinos to spawn in an existing spawn entry. ASE had mods to create custom spawn entries in game. I don't see one for ASA yet

[grim anchor]

how do I disable cheats if im only tryna save my server?

[final eagle]

Yeah I figured. Gotcha I'll go that route

[junior trout]

How to get unreal id of the player?

[twilit cove]

where do i find the entry data so i could add dinos?

[junior trout]

To use TeleportToPlayer, for example?

[velvet furnace]

anyone know a good handicap to give to more inexperienced players on your own private server? we are going to play 2v2v2v2 on a hosted server

and if it is even possible to give the handicap only to them (e.g. more harvesting rate or something like that more levels)

[bronze sleet]

It's been a while since I was hosting a server, but I don't believe per tribe rates are a thing.

I would probably recommend spawning them in some tamed dinos to make their resource gathering exponentially better than yours or something similar.

Has anyone found a fix for flyer speed, or is my game just bugged? Did a search but didn't see a clear answer.

[celest halo]

showmyadminpannel (think that is what it is) will show all connected users and there id number

[viral mantle]

Anyone know how to fix every time I set player count to 50 it reverts to 70

[velvet furnace]

alright I will think about it thanks!

was also looking to have like good items craftable for them and we wont learn them

[vale whale]

is there a workaround to this server full bug?

[final eagle]

Ah thanks for the info, I'll go ahead and tinker with it and see thanks

[celest halo]

add this to your bat -WinLiveMaxPlayers=50

[viral mantle]

Alright thanks.

[brazen goblet]

Beacon is a 3rd party app with a lot of info. Ark server manager and the community wiki also have information.

[languid narwhal]

Does anyone play on the Black island server?

Or know how I would find it's discord

[violet tide]

What setting to i need to enable on a PvE server so that people can't randomly open other people's (in different tribes) storage?

[junior trout]

Thank you 🙏🏻

[twilit cove]

alright ty, ill check out how far i get with beacon 😄

[celest halo]

you're welcome

[brazen goblet]

ForceStructureLocking=True iirc. Probably gus under [ServerSettings]. Check the wiki and search for lock.

[violet tide]

Ok, i just scrolled past that one and put it on my list of things to try. That confirms. Thank you

That was it, thank you

[inner adder]

When I host a server is there any way that I can hide my IP, whether that be through a VPN, Proxy, or something else?

[vast badger]

how do i add people to the exclusive join list?

[verbal kettle]

why cant i join different region server i always get the unetconnection error when i try to join a server thats not NA

[stark idol]

Anyone know how to fix the spawner issue?

[celest halo]

latest patch should of fixed that

[vagrant ledge]

ForceAllStructureLocking=True any new storage/crafter gets locked

[dire pagoda]

does metal respawn at all on official? lmao

[celest halo]

v25.54 (server) - 10/31/2023 - Minor version for servers

Fixed dino spawners not repopulating properly over time

@Steam/Epic Games```

[stark idol]

I updated to the latest version, do i have to dino wipe?

[brazen goblet]

It will depend on how dedicated the person is on finding you. Really its not possible.
I suggest renting a baremetal or vm from somewhere else. Try to have at least 2 threads at 4.5 Ghz and 32 GB of ram per server you want to host.

[fiery comet]

it says "unable to syn to steam cloud" anyone see this ??

[somber talon]

Is 25.54 patch released for the public?

[inner adder]

I want to try to get into hosting at home, but I don’t want it to end up messing up my entire network. What can they do with my IP if I can’t hide it?

[oblique crescent]

why when joining ark everything loads perfect untill i try join server, whereas it loads forever, all my mates are on teh server fine and playing fine

[oblique crescent]

if u cant hide it spoof it

[brazen goblet]

Well the good and bad news is your ip is already being scanned by people interested in hacking you so not really anything new. They automate their jobs. Your biggest real threat would be a DDOS attack. There is software to mitigate these but it works for a datacenter environment not a home environment. I suggest talking to your ISP about if it would be possible to get a second external IP for you network and to bind it to just the server computer. On one of my machines someone tried 21512 login combinations in the last hour. Though normally its about 2000-3000 a day for me.

[oblique crescent]

wow ur smart

[oblique crescent]

any clue abt this could it b wifi or sum

[celest halo]

wonder if ark supports ipv6 lol, last time i enabled that through my router i had a block of ips lmao

[brazen goblet]

I found a way to fix many of the corrupted saves. Just dm me if you are interested in details. I can also half reproduce the issue.

[queen marten]

Anyone know why the trees flicker at night?

[inner adder]

I’m not super familiar with networking, so would getting a second IP from my provider be the best way to go? @brazen goblet

[plucky copper]

anyone else having a issue with crafting and it duplicating. aswell as being weird and not allowing people to take items out

[hot wolf]

does clustering work yet?

[celest halo]

2024

[tight ledge]

how did you fix this ?

[brazen goblet]

I am working on reporting the details to WC. DM me though seriously. I don't bite.

[tight ledge]

i did lol

[unreal tapir]

Is that the arktribe file issue?

[turbid dawn]

do nintrado servers work fine?

[woeful plinth]

is it possible to change dino maturation in a nitrado server?

[tight ledge]

looks that way i just got mine running with out them

there a patch deploying

[unreal tapir]

If it is there is a workaround. its usually one corrupted file you can replace with the bak or in worse case delete and sort by admin commands in game.

Lots of info on Nitrado's discord

[tight ledge]

yeah im just adding them in slowly to find witch one it is also there deploying a patch 25.55

[fair matrix]

i have a few questions

1. is there a way to set a minimum dino level on my server ? we have it set for 150 but we mostly see 20 and below and i have done many dino wipes, we do get the occasional 100+ but sooooo few and we dont want the weaklings anymore considering the dino spawns are absolutely screwed rn.

[brazen goblet]

yeah

[golden lily]

How much will it be on console?

[vagrant ledge]

only way is to get the mod called Custom dino levels, used it on ASE and it worked great, altho you might not want to use mods atm with all the bugs

[tropic lotus]

U n h a n d l e d E x c e p t i o n : E X C E P T I O N _ A C C E S S _ V I O L A T I O N r e a d i n g a d d r e s s 0 x 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 f 0 0 0 0 0 2 2 7

Anyone getting this crash?

[unreal tapir]

It seems , touch wood, to be working well on my server so far.

[fair matrix]

2. how do i save the world so that we arent in in diff places when we load in than when i closed the server? it doesnt seem like the saveworld console command does anything so there must be a "nice" way to shut down the server rather than just clicking X

3. how do i update to the new version?

[tropic lotus]

cheat quit

[fair matrix]

im playing on a diff pc than im hosting the server on i dont think that will save it

[vagrant ledge]

cheat SaveWorld does work, just make sure you are admin when you use it. To know that its working you should see a red text come up "Slow frame detected (300ms) " kinda

[vagrant ledge]

You just have to make sure you are admin to save

[delicate aurora]

Can you run it from the unreal console?

[celest halo]

exit in the unreal console does a save then quit (it takes it a little bit of time before the console closes)

[fair matrix]

ok - cheat saveworld works ... i was typing in saveworld alone as thats what the game autofills for me

[fair matrix]

the cmd that pops up when i run the server ?

[celest halo]

yeah

[delicate aurora]

If you hit the double arrow at the top it will open a command line at the bottom

[gentle turret]

Hey now that dino spawns are seems to be fixed, is it still a bug that DinoCountMultiplier won’t go above 1.0 on ASA?

[wise vigil]

anyone has the WBUI2 mod configured? I cant get it to work yet

[vagrant ledge]

I mean I dont think you need it, the map got around 28k npc at all time

[fair matrix]

how do i update the server to the new version ? can i just follow the install instructions and not mess up my save ?

[wise vigil]

saves gets messed up anyhow

[gentle turret]

how do you check that? I cant find things like gigas on my map so I wanted to buff dino spawns to 1.5 or so

[vagrant ledge]

Yes you can follow it, but I would make a backup just in case

[vagrant ledge]

setcheatplayer 1 will show you a bunch of info stasis npc is the amount of dinos on the map

and gigas are really rare on the island in the first place, it got a low chance just to spawn 1

[gentle turret]

Thanks! I also have issues finding Megatherium, Spinos Rexes and stuff. Sometimes theres like 4 sometimes it takes hours to find even one or a full dino wipe. I was just gonna buff spawns to 1.5 so stuff spawns a little more abundantly

[blazing stump]

anyone know how to fix Failed to read /etc/machine-id, error Invalid argument. for linux?

[vagrant ledge]

Megatheriums should have a higher spawn rate but I know both spinos and rexes are hard to find too spinor more than rexes and they only tend to spawn at some spots on the rivers

[gentle turret]

Yeah its odd to me I see 2-4 Megatherium on the map usually per wipe when testing, still really hope not setting DinoCountMultiplier above 1.0 is just a glitch

[vagrant ledge]

If its the same as in ASE you should just be able to press F2 I think and then modify it from the ui directly

[vagrant ledge]

Well if you want to check spawn just to be sure you can spawn in a tek gene and a transmitter and check, there might be a command even to check it (need to try that myself)

[dire wasp]

On our server we have ORP enabled but we are getting feedback that it is not working. Any chance anyone else is having this issue?

[vagrant ledge]

dont think its working for anyone atm

[gentle dock]

Dinos are not respawning on my server, is there a way to force them to spawn?

[vagrant ledge]

Nothing at all? use setcheatplayer 1 and check stasis npc if that goes up dinos are spawning

[gentle dock]

Maybe it is just certain spawners, stasisnpc is moving, but I can think of two or three areas that are just empty now

[viral sandal]

Does anyone know if there are modifier options for servers through Nitrado. ASE had quite a few when I set my xbox up as a serverbox, but either I'm blind or ASE doesn't support modifiers

[vagrant ledge]

whats the number at right now?

[gentle dock]

26915

[plucky copper]

how do i get blueprints instead of the actual item when spawning it in on the command console

[vagrant ledge]

ahh yeah that about where it usually sits 26-28k I would assume some spots are hoarding a bunch of spawns like fish and so on

[viral sandal]

Should be a 0 at the end and not a 1.

[viral sandal]

However it could be the other way around

[vagrant ledge]

its 1 for blueprints

[barren swan]

Try to do dbus-uuidgen --ensure=/etc/machine-id

[gentle turret]

I know there are a lot of Dino spawns already but is it still a bug that DinoCountMultiplier won’t go above 1.0 on ASA?

[fair matrix]

steam cmd seems to have updated the server but when i launch the server it still says version 25.15 when it pops up

how do i tell if it installed the 25.54 update

i mean it def downloaded something for a while but in the cmd that pops up when i run the server it still says 25.15

[vagrant ledge]

You could make a separate bat file with this
@ echo off
echo ------------------
echo Updating server
echo ------------------
start SteamCMD\steamcmd.exe +force_install_dir ..\server\ +login anonymous +app_update 2430930 validate +quit
And the server should say what version its on at the sixth line when you start it

[stray axle]

so me and me friends made an unofficial server. and we copied my single player settings and save data to the server. but somehow it stil registrar that i'm the host and the tracking icon of my friends are moving al over the place from where they are to me. so how to i clear the host code data that i'm not the host anymore?

[blazing stump]

did not change, still same error

[fair matrix]

just to vlarify then where it says ark version 25.15 under virtual memory that is indeed the server version

[bronze bronze]

yes and thats old lol

[timid tiger]

If you use your single player ini's for a server you have to remove the override part from the game.ini. You are overwriting the actual settings above.

[fair matrix]

ught it just downloaded and said succesfful

[vagrant ledge]

just try updating with validation a few time to see if it help

[barren swan]

Weird, maybe try to have a look at the proton fixes in github/parkervcp/yolks/blob/master/steamcmd/proton/Dockerfile

[blazing stump]

this sucks because ive got a win11 machine that i cant start a server on and I cant get a docker image working

the problem im having on my win11 machine is it crashes like a second after startup

[barren swan]

Maybe try my docker image (GitHub, azixus/ARK_Ascended_Docker). Not sure about w11.

[fair matrix]

whe i run the app_update 2430930 it says app it up to date but when i launch my server im still on 25.15 pls help

[celest halo]

remove validate from your steamcmd if its there

[fair matrix]

thats when it tells me app is up to date

adding validate at the end causes it to verify install and then also say appis up to date

[celest halo]

check force_install_dir is set right

@bleak ivy

[bronze bronze]

lol cleanpvp in ark.. thats funny

when the meta is as tiny as you can be with giant arms for reach theres no such thing as clean

[fair matrix]

the install directory is correct

[fair matrix]

it is indeed.

[celest halo]

im out of guesses

[random sorrel]

destroywilddinos are enable ?

y try to use on a server but the server dont recognize

[vagrant ledge]

make sure you are admin ingame first and then cheat DestroyWildDinos

[random sorrel]

im admin and console say me cantrecognize

[vagrant ledge]

you using it ingame right?

[scarlet lichen]

does it matter where the mod settings go in the gus.ini? at the very bottom?

[fair matrix]

anyone else have issues updating to the new version ?

[delicate smelt]

No - updated like a charm

[delicate smelt]

I believe there are issues with admin rn.. I can't get it to work and I've spoken to a few who say the same

[raven hull]

yes 😭

[fair matrix]

i dont understand it downloads and then starts the old version

[delicate smelt]

are you running a bat that updates then loads up?

I made a seperate bat called "UpdateOnly.bat" because I found it was firing up the server before the update was completed.

[fair matrix]

just a reg bat i did the force_install_dir D:"folderihaveitin"
app_update ### validate

i can edit my start batch. what do you add to yours to make it update ?

[rain widget]

my whole base just got destroyed and all my tames insta died but im the only one with server admin password i dont know what just happened

[ivory yarrow]

Delete the .exe and run the bat

Also look for steamapps folder and delete that

Yes

[fair matrix]

delete the .exe and then run the update ?

[granite barn]

Anyone remember how to override prime meat and raw mutton stack sizes? thought it was in gamesettings.ini

[celest halo]

game.ini

should be

ConfigOverrideItemMaxQuantity=(ItemClassString="PrimalItemConsumable_RawPrimeMeat_C",Quantity=(MaxItemQuantity=60,bIgnoreMultiplier=True))
ConfigOverrideItemMaxQuantity=(ItemClassString="PrimalItemConsumable_RawMutton_C",Quantity=(MaxItemQuantity=60,bIgnoreMultiplier=True))```

[granite barn]

Thanks Stolen.

[vagrant ledge]

Mutton doesnt work right? atleast not for me

[granite barn]

I haven't tested it yet

[celest halo]

i have not tested either of them, i took that from my ASE file

[vagrant ledge]

yeah I did the same and mutton is the only one not working for some reason

[granite barn]

yeah; no dice for the mutton. Might be an issue with the bp. might be under a new name?

[vagrant ledge]

thats my guess aswell

[fiery comet]

Mmmm I just love how there isn’t fix for nitrado servers yet. Wildcard + nitrado please fix your servers not that temp fix bull crap.

[gentle turret]

I know there are a lot of Dino spawns already but is it still a bug that DinoCountMultiplier won’t go above 1.0 on ASA?

[agile gorge]

anyone running a cryo mod and know if they are working now? I know there were deleting dinos on restart.

[wheat jacinth]

It hasn't worked for me either

For the past 3 hours our server hasn't been able to claim babies or tame anything. Is anyone else having the same issue?

[vagrant ledge]

so anyone els getting their config folder filled witha bunch of other files now?

[granite barn]

quite a few ini files I don't recognize

[vagrant ledge]

tried increasing the count and didnt work so I guess thats another setting we cant change atm

[gentle turret]

Do you think its intentional or is it just a bug though?

[granite barn]

imo; broadcast in rcon should be a priority atm lol

[vagrant ledge]

Dont think its intentional, either a bug or the actual DinoCountMultiplier has to be written differently

[wise kindle]

They are still waiting for the spawn dino from data fix from WC. So, still broken.

[gentle turret]

its definitly the same written way cause if you lower it, it works. just raising above 1 doesnt which could be a bug or intentional

[sly storm]

Happy to help!

[pallid kestrel]

Does anyone have a working cryo mod yet?

[vagrant ledge]

ohh okey yeah then its probably bugged or actually intentionally set to max 1 then, didnt know it worked to lower it

[gentle turret]

I wonder how I can get confirmation. Is there a bug submit?

[agile gorge]

ty , I saw the one from HK said they had fixed it but there was still comments on vanishing dinos, just wanted to double check before it costs my server their dinos.

[pallid kestrel]

Yeah I made that mistake lol

Also everyone make sure you have player downloads turned off as you can import a character from single player into servers in GCM and it won't show up on logs 🙂

[wise kindle]

Yeah i think everyone is waiting for the fix.

[pallid kestrel]

(I had it in but it was removed after a crash)

[agile gorge]

ideally I would love to see the soul ball mod get ported but who knows if the dev for it is even still in the ark scene

[vagrant ledge]

Not that I know sadly

[wise kindle]

He said he wont even get time to look at porting it till January at the earliest.

[scarlet lichen]

i'mma just give a huge catch all thank you to everybody in this chat. you guys helped me get my dedicated server up and running inside a vm, using mods, wow. just wow

[agile gorge]

fair , porting is kind of janky in the dev kit atm anyways.

[grim anchor]

How do I change the amount of weight gained by stat points in the game.ini, cause I made it higher but now its less

[pallid kestrel]

Does anyone know what mods are defo safe to use? We removed them all after crashing multiple times but since the corrupted tribe log revelation we're reconsidering a few, ark additions at least

[granite barn]

I'm personally not touching mods for a lil while with the updates that'll be needed.

[pallid kestrel]

Probably wise

[agile gorge]

utilities+ has been stable for me. only one I have had running for the time being.

[young minnow]

The backpack mod has been stable for me as well, that utilities+ I have had 0 issues with

[quiet trellis]

is there an issue with the fuel consumption interval? feels like I put it lower number and it consumes faster

[young minnow]

You need to increase it to have more fuel

[quiet trellis]

oh so it is the opposite of ASE?

[young minnow]

It was the same in ASE

[quiet trellis]

weird lol thank you, I'll give it a try

[gentle turret]

Asking in case a mod or dev sees, is it a bug that DinoCountMultiplier won’t go above 1.0 on ASA?

[dire wasp]

Anyone elses server not showing up now on the list when you search for it? We cant add it back on Nitrado

[granite barn]

Solved by using self hardware and dropping Nitrado. 🙂

[feral nexus]

goddamn their really doing good on optimisation

[granite barn]

Seriously though; I think it's a nitrado issue. a lot of people seem to be having it.

[feral nexus]

1060
16gb of ram
first 2 days with console commands and low settings i was getting 30-40 fps and on 30 resolution

rn dunno when but it turned to 90 resolution (guessing update that made it fullscreen)
and im getting 59 fps
turned resolution to 30 and i got 65-80 fps

[dire wasp]

we tried but with our remote we dont have access to IP settings

[dire wasp]

yeah, this was the issue when servers first launched with nitrado and i think its happening again. when the restart loop happens we know how to fix that issue and get the server back up and running, now its just not showing up even if we use our connect link

[quaint nova]

Does anyone have a server running an able to join using Pterodactyl Panel?

[elder warren]

Nope

[quaint nova]

STALKER! :p

[celest halo]

is there even a egg for ASA

[quaint nova]

It appears so, Ive been trying to get it to work for a bit now but cant see the server in game

[celest halo]

wonder what kind of trickery they did without linux binaries

[frank egret]

theyre using wine or proton to run it,thats the only work around so far

[spiral rune]

did doed spawns change from ASE to ASA? I can't find any in singleplayer, not sure why.

[celest halo]

new update to public is out

[kindred sparrow]

Can't you have multiple single player saves in the game?

[oak patio]

hey has anyone found a way to fix the dino/resource not respawning in SP?

Asking in case a mod or dev sees, is it a bug that DinoCountMultiplier won’t go above 1.0 on dedicated servers or singleplayer in ASA? (I have messed with the .Ini files and also set the slider above 1.0)

[wise kindle]

Its broken rn. Need to wait for a fix.

[random saffron]

Ah. Thought so but wanted to be sure

[random saffron]

She thought she had it enabled and all it did was increase ptera base speed. Thanks for confirmation.

[pallid tendon]

Anyone been able to get PVE wild dino pickup working?

Currently have bAllowFlyerCarryPvE=True in the gameusersettings.ini

[tight vault]

anyone else's frames tank when looking at water? i get 60-80fps but it drops to 5fps when i look at the surface of water

[queen marten]

Mine is set to "1"

But it also does not work

On a seperate note, anyone else getting the same if not more of the opposite resource you want to get off of things like rocks and bodies? Im getting more stone from half these oil rocks than oil

[weak cobalt]

Not sure if this helps anyone but I'm working on a github repository for installing an ark dedicated server using powershell. You can find it on github at Limitspassed/ASAServerScripts

[celest halo]

nope, need to use the right tool for what you want

[queen marten]

Well aware, still happens. Just straight up getting more hide from a body when I use a pick half the time

[humble thicket]

Turrets are broke they don’t fire at incoming rockets

[rain widget]

is there an issue currently where people can bring stuff from singleplayer into a server if cloud and character download is enabled?

[stable hedge]

Is it true I can get banned for hosting a server on a different pc using the same account I'm playing on? I'm hearing rumors and I don't want to get banned.

[weak cobalt]

You can install using anonymous so should be ok. you don't have to use your steam account.

[stable hedge]

I did have to use my account on launch day. It made me buy a second copy of the game just to run the server. Then I was told they disabled it, but friends are telling me they are banning people for hosting their own private servers without buying multiple copies of the game

[serene cypress]

has anyone managed to get spawnweight to work right? Trying to remove some a few of the more obnoxious dinos but the ASE syntax for dinospawnweightmultiplier doesn't seem to work the same in ASA

[stable hedge]

they are saying it's written into the fine print agreement things somewhere and I'm not good at tracking that stuff down.

[weak cobalt]

I'm running the server using anonymous. The script I made is also using that account for hosting the server. They can't exactly ban that account.

[stable hedge]

this may be true, but I really would like to figure out whether I am actually allowed or not

[sharp bear]

Recruiting for and Xbox/windows 10 official small tribe pvp.Looking to have players from Eu and Na so we can cover an offline timer. Be 21+ experienced at all parts of the game and let’s have fun. If interested hit me up!

[wise kindle]

If a player jumps and strafes while firing it glitches the rocket and turrets dont shoot at it.

[humble thicket]

I tried for over a hour in single player and that’s not true. Jumping has nothing to do with it. Spamming rockets will get you a hit chance about 1 in 5

[wise kindle]

Ok idk then. Just what the official pvpers are saying.

[humble thicket]

It’s not as broken as people say but I mean rockets are going past turrets

[celest halo]

the Eula says nothing about having to own the game to run a server any more

[wise kindle]

Report it so it gets fixed on the website. Nothing reported on discord will get looked at.

[humble thicket]

It tried to have me make an account so I passed on reporting it. I don’t even have a video

[wise kindle]

Guess you wait till someone reports it then.

[humble thicket]

I’ll make an account

[swift bay]

how do map to engram entrys with asa? i want to remove an engram from a mod

[grim anchor]

whats stat affinity?

[ivory yarrow]

Your “friends” are lying

[cloud jetty]

So for anyone who has hosted an ASA server through Nitrado i have 2 questions.
1 - Naturally if your subscription ends the server will be deleted, but is there a grace period for when it is deleted? 2 - If you back up the files for your server before it is deleted from Nitrado, can you bring back everything if you rent the server again?

[lone dust]

THERE IS A GRACE PERIOD they will not delete it comepletly for 30 days and yes if you have the files yes

[cloud jetty]

Thanks!

Also does that include all the player's levels and such?

[lone dust]

if you have the backup files

[cloud jetty]

Awesome thanks! Pardon my ignorance, i'm new to the server hosting scene so i was just going to make sure i knew what i was getting into before i actually rented one lol

[lone dust]

np i have been coding the nitrado for 6 years all good

[cloud jetty]

Sweet, good to know. ill most likely have some more questions in the future haha

[granite barn]

Any admin know status of rcon broadcast command? Should be a simple thing

[unreal tartan]

This works for me - without the "b"
AllowFlyerCarryPvE=true

[pallid tendon]

Yeah, I figured that out myself, but I appreciate you leeting me know fame ❤️

[lone dust]

are they letting flyiers level now?

[unreal tartan]

From what I've read, there are issues with it - I haven't tried enabling it yet.

[lone dust]

ya nah it dont work

[fair matrix]

how do i get the spawn creature gui

or how do i get the teleport creature to me cheat to work

[fiery comet]

Nitrado said they adjusted the parameters and changed the IP on my server does that mean they wiped it??

[hard widget]

has anyone been able to get Svartalfheim to work on nitrado?

[mystic kiln]

Has the issue thats been forcinh unofficial to wipe been commented on by devs?

[fiery comet]

Doubt it ^ mine MAY have just been wiped by nitrado and I didn’t even ask them to

[fair matrix]

my doed is stu k in the mesh i just spend hrs trying to find anyone know how the teleport creature to me cheat works

[spiral citrus]

anyone using wbui2 on their dedi?

[still jay]

planning to test it soon after enabling the setting with a dino wipe

[scenic orchid]

I got a linux container image built today and tested it out tonight with a buddy. So far seems to be working well.

image is on dockerhub and repo is on github. I just need to write some documentation for it. Also has helm files for running in kubernetes.

[nimble talon]

Is the taming speed multiplyer maximum of 3?

[oak patio]

hey is the a new version of the creature finder mod?

[fiery pewter]

why when the server restarts, it boot backs like 30 minutes prior? I lost all of my stuff because of it :/

[round bridge]

In community crunch 381 they mentioned the ability to remove the 255 cap for mutations and how its possible on unofficial servers, have they released they lines needed to do so yet?

[proven pendant]

Don't know if anyone has noticed this, but my friend and I just experienced a bug with renaming dinos disabling player camera motion. Logging fixes, but subsequent renaming will replicate the issue. ---I reported the bug.

[bitter sable]

I get this error message as well however the server starts up successfully regardless.

I have a linux docker version on github that has been working well for me if you want to check it out chandywerks/ark-ascended-docker

[lone dust]

do we know if they just hard coded the flyer leveling
[12:49 AM]
or is it gonna work or should i say has ne one found a work around

[bronze bronze]

probably tbh

[hard widget]

Has anyone been able to successfully do a cluster with the two maps on nitrado?

[wise kindle]

Thats not enabled in ASA yet.

[hard widget]

has anyone been able to get svartalfheim to work?

[young minnow]

Mod maps don't work on Nitrado just yet

well on ASA that is

[hard widget]

Thank you for info

[celest crag]

does anyone know what the numbers mean
PerLevelStatsMultiplier_DinoTamed_Add[7]=3
PerLevelStatsMultiplier_DinoTamed_Add[8]=1

They dont seem to be lining up with what they used to be

[white garnet]

those should be weight and melee

[celest crag]

thats what i thought but my melee is going up really fast and my weight is hardly all

[rotund elbow]

hi. I'm looking to join unofficial server. is someone recruiting here?

[white garnet]

try the server-ads channel or recruitment

[rotund elbow]

thanks

[trail tiger]

Did any unofficial servers wipe today? Looking to play one with my tribe of 6 pls dm

[white garnet]

this channel is more for server setup discussion, check the server-ads or recruitment channels to find a server

[zealous dragon]

Does the server automatically update mods when using the -mods in the command line? Is there a way I can ensure that the server checks for updates in startup?

[white garnet]

are mods actually working yet?

[zealous dragon]

I've just had the solo farm mod for the past few days using -Mods=928501_4821067 in my command line and it hasn't had any issues yet

[white garnet]

ah nice

[quaint nova]

Can you DM me the docker image and github repo? Been trying to get my pterodactyl panel working with no luck yet, and if this works for now that'd be awesome

[scenic orchid]

Sure. I am in the process is just wrapping up the documentation. I will DM it to you shortly.

[quaint nova]

Thank you! I appreciate it.

[brazen goblet]

it does

[clever shuttle]

how do you get your server settings to work?weve made the game.ini file,we copy pasted the single player settings but its not working?would like some help pls :"

[dawn geode]

Case #36909 @kind yoke has been muted for 2 hours.
Reason: Mass Tagging

[tepid steeple]

is there any way to roll back a server version with steamcmd? Server was fine, but after updating to 25.55, I'm getting the EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION error.

[sudden raven]

@admition most mods are working fine other than the dino mods that are featured. And ofc more mods you add more down time you have as when ark updates you crash when mods update you crash so one or two should be fine.

[echo frigate]

I also would like to know the answer to this if anyone else is also having this issue.

[tepid steeple]

The server first crash I've had was on 25.55, and what I'm seeing in the crashstack other than the EAV, is

Last Remote Function ClientRefreshDinoOrderGroup```
Now I'm wondering if it corrupted something.

[thick vessel]

if i buy a server, can i load a previous game file into it?

I am playing on a non dedicated server with friends but am having issues with tether distance and am thinking of buying a server, so is it possible to transfer the world over?

[tepid steeple]

Giving an update. Whatever happened, the arktribe file jumped to be 30x larger than the others. lol
Once removed, everything fired back up.

[unique trout]

Yea that is the reason servers wont boot back up

[tepid steeple]

Was just so weird. Hadn't had a single issue, then shortly after update, had my first crash. and appears tied to the tribe, any idea what causes them to bloat till it prevents the server like that?

[compact goblet]

anyone else in server restart purgatory?

[unique trout]

Not that i have found yet.. Happened to 4 tribes so far on my server in little over 2 days, Update has nothing to do with this issue.

There is something the players in the tribe does to corrupt it somehow but i have not gotten any info from the players on what it can be yet

[lyric python]

What happens when you delete those files? Will the tribes be deleted? Structs, tames, etc?

[unique trout]

Yea they lose everything

[lyric python]

Wow. That's terrible. Completely kills the longterm playability aspect for our players if they can't be sure their stuff is gonna be there next time they login 🤔

[unique trout]

There should be a .tribebak save of each tribe, You can change that to .arktribe if that backup is not corrupted but they will have a rollback then.. Sadly we have to wait for WC to fix the issue

[lyric python]

Hmm at least there's backups. Do you know if the latest backup is just the latest autosave?

[unique trout]

For map there is multiple saves with time stamps, But for tribes there is only 1 backup that should be the latest, If they dont have a backup for some reason then they will lose everything

[lyric python]

Good to know, thanks!

[clever shuttle]

so im getting joining failed conetion timeout when i try to join my friends unoiffical server?

any idea what it could?

[white garnet]

can anyone else besides your friend join the server?

[bronze bronze]

anyone figured out good baby mature and cuddle speeds for asa yet?

[clever shuttle]

dnt hv anybody to check,you mind trying?

[brave jungle]

anyone else getting unet connection issues

[hearty pivot]

I'm still having the same problem as Grim, but I know for sure that no1 except the host itself can log in, still havent found a fix for this. ports are forwarded and open. Kind of running out of ideas.

[barren swan]

Which OS are you using to run the server ?

[hearty pivot]

win 10

[glossy oyster]

Hey guys I joined this discord primarily to tribe up

[brazen goblet]

dm me; I can help you fix it

[glossy oyster]

Is anyone recruiting ?

[barren swan]

@hearty pivot dm me, it'll be easier

[glossy oyster]

I am an active player , I can help farm and with little guidance can offer good support. As I am fairly new to the game I might be a slow in the start

[brazen goblet]

yeah when you open the file it has the wrong data saved in it. You should have .tribebak file with the right data. just delete the .arktribe file and rename the .tribebak to be a .arktribe

I suspect they are using a filewriter and either passing the wrong pointer or changing the pointer target prematurely

[scarlet ether]

Hello, i own a pc server for ascended and works stable since the begining, but after i added my evolved LevelExperienceRampOverrides, i found the player level stuck on 135 but the progression stills going up, but no level, just stuck there. Do someone knows what is happening or if there is something new in game ini to check? thank you.

[distant tiger]

Good morning. Does anyone have suggestion for fixing a "?Maxplayers=20" not registering and defaulting to 70 issue I'm having? I tried changing the order in the cmd line, wrapping the 20 in quotes, forcing the ini to 20 every time and still it resets the value to 70.

[bleak raft]

is there any simple RCON client compatible with ASA?

[brazen goblet]

what was your intended final level?

[scarlet ether]

i always had more than 400 levels for players, dinos are working fine (400 after being tammed)

[scarlet ether]

I use the evolved version ARK server launcher with its inner ARKconto control everything

[vestal cloud]

how do i enable admin mode in game on my unofficial server? i tried setting up admin password in the ini file and in the start up bat file but it doesnt seem to work

[barren swan]

add -WinLiveMaxPlayers=20 at the end of your command line

[scarlet ether]

Hello, using the game console, you need to write just: enablecheats (your admin pass) and then click enter

[vestal cloud]

thats what i do, but when i try to use any admin commands i get "command not recognized"

[distant tiger]

will try that thank you!! 🙂

[scarlet ether]

for command use, write cheat before the command

[hollow ridge]

Does anyone have any suggestions for why my dedicated server won’t appear in server list? People can connect via ip but it refuses to appear for friends in Canada / USA. Thank you 🙏

[vestal cloud]

oh thanks, forgot about that

[scarlet ether]

you welcome

Sorry for repeat the message, but i am stuck there: !Hello, i own a pc server for ascended and works stable since the begining, but after i added my evolved LevelExperienceRampOverrides, i found the player level stuck on 135 but the progression stills going up, but no level, just stuck there.

[vestal cloud]

have you tried OverrideMaxExperiencePointsPlayer= ?

[scarlet ether]

yes

from the begining

and as i commented, they are counting experience, but no level up appears

[indigo ginkgo]

Hi I have a little problem with my private server I have my backups which become corrupted very often and I have to reset everything, do you have a solution please?

[granite barn]

Unclean shutdown

[scarlet ether]

Any info about this?

[light basin]

What settings do I have set up that my own server runs in same difficulty like the official ones?

[elfin pulsar]

i imagine you wouldnt have to touch any settings?

[coarse tulip]

The dino mods work fine

[glossy oyster]

Hey guys , anyone recruiting for a PvP tribe . I have been looking supportive tribe mates to play w

[coarse tulip]

All you do is admin their stuff back to them

[sudden raven]

@coarse tulip they are the mods that are causing the most issues right now is what i was saying.

[bleak raft]

I found minimalistic solution dockerized version of gorcon/rcon-cli from github

[coarse tulip]

Oh. We havent had any issues with them on my server yet.

[scarlet ether]

great for that

[light basin]

Really? I mean if I start a server without touching any setting I do way more dmg than I do on official

[elfin pulsar]

idk, official rates suck i never use them

[rich magnet]

Does anyone have Nitrado server boot loop issues? Lost everything and can't connect, it sucks

[light basin]

It's not about rates. It's about damage dealing and hp from bosses

[bronze bronze]

yeah i noticed we do alot of dmg vs wilds

[silver obsidian]

hi i manage to connect to my server, but not my buddy message "time out" do you know where this can come from

[light basalt]

My friend group and I were playing on non-dedicated server. Everything was great until a absurb amount of fatal errors. Now the host cant even log into the game, does anyone have any suggestions on what this could be? I tried to post in general channel, but that was not fruitful

[alpine heath]

I'm in a similar position, can I ask the specific error? is it a connection timeout, a crash, etc

[light basalt]

He said said it was D-AC5, and just fatal error, acceptation access violation? Which i have no idea what that is

We even tried to launch the game in the "anti-cheat" option from the steam menu, and it still does not work, we are thinking somehow the files are corrupted. He verified the intergirty of the files 3 times and nothing is working. If the files are corrupted and its not just another ark bug, we are gonna have to delete the world and start over, which is not the vibe.

[alpine heath]

if the files were corrupt you'd be getting files to redownload after you verify them, is the "D-AC5, and just fatal error, acceptation access violation" a msg that appears when joining the server or a msg that appears when the game crashes if I may ask?

[light basalt]

So, he tries to launch and before he can even load into ark as his character he gets the fatal error on a black screen and than he gets a hard dc and back to steam

[silver obsidian]

Hi, does anyone know why I can connect to my server but my friend can't? "Time out" error message

[alpine heath]

your not alone there are about 100 bug reports of it in ark's bug report section, and so far there's not legitimate fix, I have the same issue

[silver obsidian]

oh, that's great! I was thinking of a missing port or something, that reassures me, and it doesn't reassure me either... ahah thanks

[celest halo]

in my testing only need 2 ports forward, might test tonight if it only really needs one. when checking with netstat it only has 7777 listening full time and not the 7778 so might test if i can remove the forward for 7778

[mortal gazelle]

@zealous aurora are you guys working on the corrupted tribe files / player files

[alpine heath]

can I ask for you to teach me how to do this? I've never changed my ports it could be a fix for me

[barren swan]

I can confirm it's only one port, you just need 7777. You can verify this by running netstat -an | findstr UDP on the server.

[celest halo]

yeah i just dont know if it opens 7778 after getting info at 7777, just not home to test after removing 7778 from my port forward

[celest halo]

every router is different for how you set up port forwarding

[celest halo]

i did find out what the listen on localhost 8888 was running last night though

[barren swan]

Hmm I noticed that port but I didn't try to understand its purpose

[celest halo]

its the unreal remote control api

[barren swan]

allright thanks

[celest halo]

still have not found away to pull server version, players, and day number from the server like what shows on the in game server list

when it was using steam networking it was easy, now that it uses epics not sure how to get that info

[ivory yarrow]

I think it might be used for clusters?

[pallid kestrel]

Is anyone unable to access obelisks?

[scarlet ether]

Someone knows why the player level wont increase after reaching 135? i have the ramps made up to 400 as ever...

[pallid kestrel]

For reals is anyone unable to access obelisks cause this is gonna be a problem lol

[cinder quail]

Is anyone having issues with opening dinos inventory and then it causing your mouse to be locked in location so youo cant look around after?

[ornate shell]

only when I tried to change name other than that no issues

[cinder hare]

Yup, I have to exit to the main menu and come back in. It does it with changing the name of the dino as well.

[unborn cedar]

hi guys
is the Cluster setup on ASA similar to ASE?

[fiery pewter]

Thanks. Any way to avoid it?

[celest halo]

there is no cluster setup in ASA yet

[barren swan]

@fiery pewter use an rcon command, DoExit, and maybe SaveWorld to be sure

[unborn cedar]

i read that they change the policy... fake news? 😦

[scarlet ether]

LevelExperienceRampOverrides are not working after the player reaches level 135, please do someone notice it and has any solution? thank you

[celest halo]

cross ark and transefers are not coming till 2024, so no cluster support yet

[olive pecan]

Hello guys. I am looking for a player with ASA on Epic. It's just a testing of "finding" the server. Can anyone help me? 😛

[unborn cedar]

alrighty, so we will wait, thank you

[celest halo]

i did not think it was in the epic store

[kind pewter]

i think its a pretty big bug, happening to alot of people at the moment have to wait for a fix i think

[kind pewter]

yeah that happening to me too i use the ping wheel to fix it i just click go here and brings me out of it but it is an annoying issue

[kind pewter]

try using the ping wheel, it brings me out of it

[dire thunder]

does anyone know the syntax for the exclusive join (playersJoinNoChecklist) file?

[celest halo]

i have not found one for that or the admin txt file that works yet

[bitter mortar]

Hey, is there any updates on the MultiHome setting and if Wildcard is aware of the problems surounding it?

[dire thunder]

shame

[dusky radish]

Anyone run a dedicated server at home would mind dming their game and gameusersettings ini as templates so that I can configure mine? ❤️

[celest halo]

nope and cross ark and transefers are not coming till 2024, only issue without havin multihome is it listens on all ips

[bitter mortar]

Yeah thats my problem to.

[celest halo]

i just did a "server" in game to make them and copied settings over, other settings i took from my ASE files

[dusky radish]

oh snap I can create a single player session/ non dedicated and copy those files?

I never made an ASE server this is my first time. Ill check it out. For some reason I juiced tamed dino stats just a little bit but I am not seeing results when I level the dinos or even on a new tame.

They still are only getting what appears the base level stat ups.

[celest halo]

yeah you can make single player session/ non dedicated and copy those files

[terse widget]

I have a solution but you can't use mods with it...

[dusky radish]

Also do the mods on ASE have different steam IDs than those of ASA? Where can I find the IDs? They are now via curse forge or something like that?

[celest halo]

curse forge and modid is the project id

[merry root]

They are "Project IDs"

[dusky radish]

thanks!

[sturdy kiln]

So has anyone been experiencing tribe corruption all the time?

[humble thicket]

Do you know where I can find metal on the new map ?

[polar schooner]

Ive got a nitrado server where I cant level flyers. I have bAllowFlyerSpeedLeveling=True in game.ini, gameusersettings.ini and engine.ini. has anyone else experienced this?

[peak rampart]

Hi, anyone know how to actually make DinoSpawnWeightMultipliers work?

[polar schooner]

^^ curious about this too, my server has too few dinos on it at most times

[peak rampart]

about your problem I get the same, but about mine I get a console error

[lean anvil]

Does anyone know why my friend would timeout but only when im on and not other people? Literally only when Im on

[bronze bronze]

Current braintrust thought is its now hardcoded to not work

[polar schooner]

well at least its not just me

[pallid kestrel]

For reals is anyone unable to access obelisks

[tall chasm]

bAllowFlyerSpeedLeveling currently don't works.

[torpid spear]

I haven’t seen the UI for Nitrado since I had I had my first on and got tired to paying for it, however there might be a option to change it on the site with a lot of the settings. I know the ones that they made easy to change took precedence over what the file said.

[undone hearth]

Hello everyone who opened a dedicated server, the problem is that I changed the stacks individually in the config, everything changed except the lamb, what’s the catch? ASA game
What is code RAW MUTTON?

[celest halo]

no one knows what the code is for that, blueprint either changed or its borked

[undone hearth]

The Blueprint output command is the same and works, but nothing happens when you change the config

[sacred karma]

Hey guys I have a couple questions for my dedicated server if anybody could help.

• Is there a way I'm missing, that allows you to go over 70 max players? I have the settings, but it isn't taking effect.
• Are tribe alliances enabled? I have them enabled in settings, but they don't work.
• I have the setting for increased turret count on, but also isn't taking effect.
  Can anybody answer any of these questions? I'd be grateful, thank you.

[compact verge]

Same think 70 is the max ark shows

[sacred karma]

Thank you. I just wanted to confirm I wasn't crazy lol

[compact verge]

I have in issues doing mods on mine atm

Kinda new to all this myself been a fun time

Also beacon omni been a big help as well

[lean anvil]

Tribe alliances work fine make sure you haven't got the tribe thing twice in your config or something. (One might be false while the other is true)

[queen dock]

Is anyone else running into an issue with supply drops giving ascended gear all the time? The nitrado server that I am on is using Loot Quality Set to 1 and the loot drops seem to be crazy quality.

[lean anvil]

@queen dock Loot drops in general seem to be 'bugged' right now

[sacred karma]

For mods, you need to add -mods=<modid> in your batch file and add activemods=<modid> in gameusersettings

[queen dock]

Thank you!

[sacred karma]

OK I'll have to double check. Thanks

[celest halo]

@compact verge add -WinLiveMaxPlayers=<number> to your bat file, i know it works for going lower then 70, have not tested for over

[sacred karma]

That's for play cap right?

[celest halo]

yeah for max players

[sacred karma]

Dope thank you. I'll have to check on my next redtart.

[sacred karma]

Should I remove the ?MaxPlayers or keep it as well?

[celest halo]

i kept it, dont know if it does anything

[sacred karma]

OK thank you. I appreciate the help.

[quiet bramble]

Hi does any one know what is the best platform to build a server just to play with friends?

[sacred karma]

Anybody know about turret limit then?

[celest halo]

dedicated server only runs on windows right now

[barren swan]

(or on linux with some hacky proton-ge based solution)

[bronze bronze]

oof just had a corrupted save, don't suppose anyones figured out a auto backup for saves yet?

[barren swan]

You can use cheat saveworld / rcon saveworld to make world backups. I suppose that this in a scheduled task / cron job would work

[bronze bronze]

am talking about whole folder backups

[glad hollow]

u search an primitiv+ server

[barren swan]

You can probably use something that was done for ase, doubt there is any difference

[patent grove]

Anyone know what MaxDifficulty=True does?

[vagrant ledge]

Dont you have any save files with a bunch of nr (dates) in your save folder?

[glad hollow]

i search a primitiv+ server , does one know a prim+ server?

[celest halo]

i have not looked at setting that up on windows, i have a cron job for linux that does it for me but no linux binaries yet 😦

[celest halo]

ASE you could also do rcon StartSaveBackup , that dont seem to do anything with ASA though

[regal halo]

Sets the server to the default official difficulty (5x)

[patent grove]

Sweet, thanks.

[regal halo]

Anyone running dedicated servers been able to increase their tamed dino cap? I tried adding ?MaxPersonalTamedDinos=500 to the command line (as well as various other attempts at different numbers from 200 to 999) and it won't budge from the 100 tame max.

[vale rover]

I am hosting a server on Nitrado and I logged in today and my base is a floating 1x1 just north log of redwoods. Bunch of wild Dino’s are spawning in the base as well. Any ideas how to fix this? I restored backups and nothing

[barren swan]

what was the command doing on ase ? I couldn't find any documentation online

[rain widget]

what is the setting to show tribe names in tribe log currently when someone kills on my server or destroys something the name doesnt show in the tribe log

[frail crescent]

Editing Max Tribe Dinos, is there an INI for it? Can't find it if there is one.

[patent grove]

Have you tried listing MaxPersonalTamedDinos=500 in the GUSini? I added last night but forgot to check if it worked. Lol

[regal halo]

It used to be a CLI thing for ASE but might have changed to an ini setting in ASA

[frail crescent]

CLI is for max Global Tames

[regal halo]

I'll give it a shot, see if that changes it

[coarse tulip]

Has anyone added stuff to drops without overwriting vanilla drops?

[frail crescent]

Oh nevermind, i did find a CLI "?MaxPersonalTamedDinos="

[delicate tusk]

Is the game too easy with level 300 wild dinos? Or do the caves and bossfights still challenge you

[celest halo]

would make a backup file like the auto made dated ones

[silver obsidian]

hello little question to launch on the Svartalfheim map in my run.bat I have to put this? Svartalfheim_WP?listen instead of the island?

[patent grove]

Confirmed with folks on my server the MaxPersonalTames=500 in the GUSini works.

[frail crescent]

Testing myself, here shortly to confirm your confirm.

[scarlet ether]

someone went over the 135 level for a player? thank you

[frail crescent]

The Boss and dino levels scale based on ur difficulty. So if you have level 300 dinos, you will have bosses with close to twice the HP as 150

[spiral citrus]

hey all, is anyone using wbui2 mod on their dedi machine?

[delicate tusk]

Okay good so I won’t be steamrolling then and still should breed?

[regal halo]

Thanking you muchly! 🙂

[frail crescent]

Did not work, i set mine to exactly that in GUS, still only 100. Trying different wording

[regal halo]

Same here

[frail crescent]

MaxPersonalTamedDinos=500 is the correct phrase in GUS.
Just tested on my server and now its showing the 500

[rain widget]

so i have dino melee at default but yet i was just able to kill an alpha raptor with a moschops

[olive sleet]

moschops are unironically quite strong at higher levels, and Alpha Raptors in ASA seemingly have hurtbox issues

[primal estuary]

Yep! I grabbed a regular yellow supply drop today and there was:
1 Mastercraft Carcha saddle crafted
2 Apprentice Carcha saddle blueprints
1 Journeyman Quetz platform saddle
1 Journeyman Mosasaur saddle
1 Apprentice Plesiosaur platform saddle
1 Apprentice Giga saddle
1 Journeyman Spino saddle Blueprint

All this from a yellow drop? Those things are supposed to be in the deep sea lootcrates not regular yellow drops!

And whats up with the amount of stuff in there? Should be max 2 items not 8 things!

[lean anvil]

make sure you dont have 'UseSinglePlayer' something on in your config it makes the game 'easier' for singleplayer

[rain widget]

is it in game ini or the other one?

[lean anvil]

Game.ini bUseSingleplayerSettings

[regal halo]

Works for me too. Thank you!

[lean anvil]

The personal dino limit saying 100 is a bug btw ;p so if thats the reason you are turning it up

[rain widget]

what if there is no line like this

[lean anvil]

then no idea 😛

[exotic meteor]

try adding this - bUseSingleplayerSettings=false

[rain widget]

will try

[ivory iron]

weird one here, but after the last few server updates, my server doesn't seem to be loading in certain .ini settings anymore. For instance, it is no longer asking for a password and the stack multiplier for items isnt working

[rain widget]

@lean anvil @exotic meteor pt melee going up about 30 pts per level that normal?

[coarse tulip]

Anyone else have issues with generators not working after awhile?

[lean anvil]

i mean it sounds normal Lol

[rain widget]

thats after i added the single player setting line i should have seen what it was before but i forgot lol i just dont want no moshops out here killing alpha raptors again lol

[lean anvil]

😄

Just dont do what I did and copy a 'Easy Difficulty' game ini to your server

[silver obsidian]

I don't see my dedicated server in the list of servers with the Svartalfheim map. Any solutions?

[exotic meteor]

did you port forward? make sure "Show modded servers" or whatever is check in the server browser

[silver obsidian]

everything looks good! but what's strange is that, unlike my the island server, it doesn't display the same message in the console at the end.

this line doesn't appear in my console when I launch the server, I don't know what it corresponds to... whereas on my the island server it does...
wp.Runtime.HLOD = "1"

[exotic meteor]

if you're running them at the same time i think you need to use a different port.

ohhh, I don't either but apparently it's important haha

[silver obsidian]

to try it out, I've turned off my the island server, but I can't launch it even on my own... 🥲

[cosmic viper]

🧢

[exotic meteor]

It shows how many cores and everything? everything before HLOD?

[silver obsidian]

yes, it's only the quoted line that doesn't appear at the end.

[exotic meteor]

seems like it should work fine. I haven't tried hosting the new map myself though

[granite barn]

Official/Nitrado or self hosted?

[silver obsidian]

I don't understand... I'll try to fiddle with it a bit... 😦

[exotic meteor]

let me know if you figure it out, might save me some trouble in the future. sorry i couldn't be of more help

[silver obsidian]

no worries, I'll take a look! thanks anyway!

[fickle blade]

anyone looking for a tribe to join

[spiral citrus]

WBUI2 mod, anyone have this working on their dedi box?

[fiery pewter]

It's an unofficial dedicated server

[bleak current]

anyone looking to play on my server its pve 2x xp 3x farming with ark additon dinos

[vestal sable]

anyone knows the minimum specs for dedicated servers? Minimum CPU Features? Runs on a Phonom X6? (it handles without problem 6 "old" Ark Dedicated for small tribe)

[lapis vessel]

My server is starting to pull in new players now, but there are a lot of complaints about the lack of Dinos around the map especially in the starting areas. I don't know if it's related, but we I have run the destroy wild dinos command and that doesn't seem to do anything, and actually it almost seems like it makes it worse each time. Any ideas?

[patent grove]

What hardware are folks running for there dedicated?
I'm running some leftover hardware from previous builds. 5800x @5ghz and 64gb ram on a x570 mobo. Haven't had any issues yet and runs smooth.

[vagrant ledge]

use setcheatplayer 1 to soo all the stasis npc on your map, it will show how many dinor has spawned on the map at that time. Mine sits around 29k when its full but I do agree if feel empty but with the spawnfailures they fixed alot of those were either piranhas or coels so my thought is that there are way to many of them on the map and they might take up spots for other dinos to spawn

[tender kettle]

i got a basic 10x server going if anyone wants to join. no rules simple pvp while official gets going
BeachBoB 10x

[autumn eagle]

Has a fix or workaround for Flyer Speed been found yet?

[wary fog]

Has a fix or workaround for Flyer Speed been found yet?

[ember basin]

Anyone having issues setting breed/hatch/mature timers? I cannot for the life of me seem to get them to work. I’ve put it in both game.ini and gameUserSettings.ini but it doesn’t seem to make a difference.

[vagrant ledge]

No and I think it will take some time before the ini settings are fixed, I dont think thats their first priority atm

[wary fog]

Sadly yeah, it could be great though. I've got something like 4k hours in there. Love the sailing, the underwater content (there could be more tbh) but it's been an absolute mess for going on 2+ years now. So many bugs and broken mechanics, ships, all sorts. Not to mention lack of communication from devs/CM's ect.

But I'll keep fingers crossed that the build mods start popping up soon so I can actually build what I had in mind.

[autumn eagle]

Yeah I get that. I've just been working long shifts the last few days and been out of the loop a bit. Figured I'd ask. I know some people were trying random codes to test thing.

[vagrant ledge]

yeah understandable and nothing bad with asking 😄

[swift whale]

Where do we do this

[autumn eagle]

Id for sure much rather them fix the instability and crashes. I can deal with Flyers being a bit slow for now.

[autumn eagle]

They go in Game.ini as (for example)
MatingIntervalMultiplier=0.005
EggHatchSpeedMultiplier=20
BabyMatureSpeedMultiplier=20
make sure that "[/Script/ShooterGame.ShooterGameMode]" without the quotes is the top line of Game.ini as well

[swift whale]

How do we go into the inifile

[autumn eagle]

It depends on how you are playing the game. Single player, nitrado host, or self hosted.

[silver obsidian]

If I can connect to my 2 ASA servers (hosted on dedicated ovh) but my friends can't, isn't this due to port forwarding?

[swift whale]

I play single player/ non dedicated

[torpid spear]

any idea why supply drops dont dissappear after taking everything out?

[autumn eagle]

Then you will need to go to ASA's root folder in File Explorer. Dig down until you find the file and open it.

[wary fog]

I second this notion, just watched the most recent stuff on it. I didn't know it went that deep, I thought they were releasing early so they could get out of the contract, not so it could go through with these extremely predatory stipulations that were previously undisclosed... kinda thinking the spammers who come here talking about Nitrado needing to be sued and put out of business were right, unfortunately

[celest halo]

Part of the contract was to have it released by end of October

[dusk socket]

random question you guys has anyone tested if the old event codes are working for like thanksgiving christmas etc. do we have those available or do none of them work currently?

[spiral citrus]

max tribe tame limit got a working setting for an ini?

[autumn eagle]

does MaxTamedDinos not work? Dont really use it or have a need for it in my personal server.

[patent grove]

MaxPersonelTamedDinos=XXX
In GUSini

[wary fog]

Having this weird issue when interacting with tames inventory or storage. Mouse stops responding ,can't move the camera after. Clicking works and the mouse works in the main menu , just not for the characters pov camera. Loging out and back in fixes it but the issue arises again as soon as i interact again.

[raven notch]

what is the game.ini commands to stop dino and player transfers?

[autumn eagle]

stop from downloading into the server or uploading from ?

and it is GUS.ini under [server settings]

PreventDownloadSurvivors=true
PreventDownloadItems=true
PreventDownloadDinos=true
PreventUploadSurvivors=true
PreventUploadItems=true
PreventUploadDinos=true

[raven notch]

tysm

[autumn eagle]

No problem.

[bronze patrol]

Is offline pvp protection still not working ?`

[sullen herald]

Anyone else having issues on private server with offspring/babies falling through the map? Every time we beed the offspring when ridden or carried fall through the map.

[chilly river]

once so far! That a cub fell through the map.

[sullen herald]

@chilly river It happens every time we breed 🤦🏼‍♂️. 2 beelzbufo, megatherium, and sabertooth.

[chilly river]

Is there anything in common between the incidents? Processes that were the same, which would show why this happened?

For us it was a carno

[sullen herald]

As soon as they are picked or ridden they fall.

@chilly river Did it happen when saddled and ridden?

[chilly river]

You could try uploading them once and releasing them again. Maybe that will fix the problem...

[chilly river]

while growing up

[snow thunder]

We kinda had the oppsite last night of babies falling through the map. The babies would launch of into the air, about 3/4 way up to the world ceiling and then very slowly come back down

[frigid sparrow]

anyone else having problem where your nitrado server is not showing in game even though it shows it running on nitrado website I did notice all builds say 25.55 but my game build is 25.53 and no upate after multiple steam restarts Am i just stupid right now?

[lean anvil]

We get invisable dinos, dinos falling through the floor, dinos floating up all sorts of fun issues

@frigid sparrow There was some server updates that didnt need a client update. Also make sure you are ticking off 'show passworded' if you are running a passworded server

[sullen herald]

Both (adult and growing up). The beelzbuf we all while adult. Picked to with Angie and when dropped the feel through the map, and the other 1 was saddled and tried to ride and feel through. The megatherium was growing up and picked then when it was released it feel through. The saber was saddled and same.

😂 the invisible Dino’s for sure but that’s was a easy fix when we figured out what was going on. Hit them and they will appear.

[frigid sparrow]

yes thanks i have

[lean anvil]

Haha had to make sure so many people make that mistake 😛

[frigid sparrow]

I get it no worries

[alpine flame]

someone knows how to change server slots? i changed gaemusersettings and the start.bat file. it goes every time to 70

[naive panther]

is there anyway to enable more logging than logins? we cant check anything like tribelog entries, chat or admin commands yet 😦

[honest vine]

hey so im having trouble with temps in ASA like everywhere is hot and i dont know the game user settings are but i found this bTemperatureF and its set to false, what does that mean?

[rain widget]

is there a way for me to make white drops have a change to have one of the artifacts in it

[honest vine]

and how do i fix it

[median lotus]

do yous think for single players its good to put weight on x2 ??

[celest halo]

Clients are .53, servers are .55

[frigid sparrow]

thank you

[solemn zephyr]

Have confirmed some dinos like frogs and ankys only fall through if imprinted.

[torn owl]

does anyone have any information on these regarding a dedicated server

• If/where the game.ini file is
  -any info on how to setup mods

[silver obsidian]

Hi
What ports do I need to open for dedicated servers?
My friends can't seem to connect to this one...

[solemn zephyr]

Just means whether temp displays in Celsius or Fahrenheit

[celest halo]

Go to channel & roles at top of channel list and click the steam/epic games under what you play on and you will be able to see the patch notes channel and see when client/server get updates

[celest halo]

It's in same folder as GUS ini, some servers are not auto making the game.ini

Even if it does get auto made it's empty

[torn owl]

That was my initial thoughts lol, thank you for confirming!

[celest halo]

For mods add -AutoManagedMods -mods=modid,modid to bat file

[solemn zephyr]

Anyone not using beacon for their inis is hurting themselves!

[torn owl]

o7 Legend.

[frigid sparrow]

thanks again

[zenith bloom]

I have official override set to 8.5 in my nitrado server settings...any idea why I still can't get high levels spawning even after a destroywilddinos command?

[marble crypt]

@solemn zephyr does beacon have a new release for ascended?

[solemn zephyr]

Yep

[marble crypt]

right on

[bitter gull]

Anyone know how to change the actual speed at which you craft stuff for single player? Not the stat, I'm trying to change something so you just craft at an increased rate across the board.

[solemn zephyr]

Raise your crafting skill if crafting on your person

[bitter gull]

Like I said

Trying to see if there is a way to change it, without changing that stat

[solemn zephyr]

Maybe a mod, not with ini

[loud sphinx]

is there a known way to enable flyer speed on dedicated servers?

[zenith bloom]

Anyone have any ideas for me about the dino level?

[bitter gull]

Did you dino wipe? I had the same problem and after a wipe it worked fine

[zenith bloom]

Yeah I did..still getting level 5s

[bitter gull]

When you did your INI does it reflect what you want ?

[zenith bloom]

Yeah the INI file shoes 8.5 as well as the general settings under the nitrado slot

[bitter gull]

difficulty=do you have it on hard? So it would read either true or false.

[zenith bloom]

Which spot would I check that

DifficultyOffset=1
OverrideOfficialDifficulty=8.5

[bitter gull]

MaxDifficulty=False

sorry had to find it. make sure it's not true

[brazen goblet]

you don't want both right now. just the override

[zenith bloom]

Ah that was set as true...so dino wipe and server restart should fix? Or server restart then dino wipe?

[bitter gull]

not sure on that one

[mild quarry]

My pc runs ASA prefectly fine, 3070ti and 34gb RAM, can i also host a dedicated server for 3 more friends on it? what would be my best option?

[zenith bloom]

Alright I'll test it out..thanks for the help!

[devout magnet]

Does anyone know if there is anything special we'll need to do in the startup script or ini to enable or disable crossplay with xbox and ps on unofficial self-hosted servers?

[north spade]

have we heard anything about fixing the corrupted arktribe file?

[clever shuttle]

any news on the connection timeout when joining unoffical servers yet or nah?

[spiral sapphire]

i dont have it, shrug

[tender root]

I'm experiencing, that nearly every baby dino is falling through the mesh and vanishes - it doesn't event matter, if it's just the ground or a foundation or anything. Example would be an otter - it's on my shoulder, I'll drop it inside my base and it flat out falls through the floor and the mesh. Like it has noclip or something.
Happens with a lot of tames / baby dinos though. Did anyone experience the same? Is this something server specific / fuckup with the settings? Playing on a nitrado server

[frozen basin]

ARK SA server using 51GB RAM its normal ? 😄

[rain widget]

Is there a way for me to change what’s in drops? I wanna make artifacts have a low chance to appear in drops

[sour holly]

might have a working server panel for asa servers for as many as needed 👀

[exotic meteor]

[winged stirrup]

Hello, im having some issues with my dedicated server. im launching my bat file, its updating server etc etc, but when it comes to launching the server file it just says "cannot find the file" or something. Ive linked to the file its supposed to open in the batch file. anybody had the same problem?

[bleak ivy]

what is the file link? does it have a space in it?

[celest halo]

if it says cannot find the file then path or file name is wrong

[winged stirrup]

i mean i copied the path directly. and ArkAscendedServer.exe isnt that hard to tye D:

[bleak ivy]

what is the path

if it has a space it won't follow it

[winged stirrup]

sec its on a diff computer ill copy it over here

[austere phoenix]

So I have 2 questions 1 is there a way to raise the max Dino level above 150 like in base ark with the .ini files and 2 how come high level creatures are 10x more rare in ascended and is there a way to change it

[bleak ivy]

if you just put the bat file in the same folder you just need to call the file, don't need a path

[winged stirrup]

yea ive tried that aswell

[rigid helm]

depeeends

[winged stirrup]

start server\ShooterGame\Binaries\Win64\ArkAscendedServer.exe TheIsland_WP?listen?SessionName=<SERVER_NAME>?ServerAdminPassword=<ADMIN_PASS>?Port=7777?QueryPort=27015?MaxPlayers=32 -NoBattlEye

its this but with passwords etc

[bleak ivy]

its the island, its always had level issues. the same way should work as ASE, guide in the pins just change the 5 to whatever you want. 30*difficulty = max level

[celest halo]

that is not a full windows path

[winged stirrup]

it p much is, ive also tried starting with D: which is exactly where server folder is

also tried having the bat file in the same folder as the launch file, and doing it without the path, still didnt work

[barren swan]

Found the movement speed flag if anyone is interested: you need to add the -AllowSpeedLeveling dash flag

[pallid peak]

Having the same issue, primarily with penguins both baby and adult. It is also happening with picking them up with an argy or pter, and dropping them

[frozen basin]

60/60 Players after 24h without restart = 51GB RAM and 103GB VRAM

mine is

exit
its in the same folder as the file and works

[topaz cradle]

Is there anyway to submit bugs for the dedicated server?

[bleak ivy]

#bug-reports I assume

[celest halo]

and mine is start C:\Users\User\Downloads\arkasa\ShooterGame\Binaries\Win64\ArkAscendedServer.exe TheIsland_WP?listen?SessionName="some session"?MaxPlayers=10?Port=7787?ServerPassword=somepassword?ServerAdminPassword=someadminpass -gameplaylogging -servergamelog -servergamelogincludetribelogs -serverrconoutputtribelogs -forceallowcaveflyers -notransferfromfiltering -UseDynamicConfig -automanagedmods -mods=929420 -WinLiveMaxPlayers=10 and it works

[bleak ivy]

yours is long

[tender root]

Could go on with the list - happens with Daedonss and Sabers too. If I drop a saber in the water with a saddle on, I can freely ride on it straight into the mesh

[winged stirrup]

hm

[celest halo]

yeah, its same i used on ASE, with extra logging options for the discord bot i made and was running

[bleak ivy]

ah, I just through this together lol, copied from others here. ASM handled mine before 😂

I should learn how to actually run a server

[celest halo]

and the dynamicconfig, had a a custom url set, so i could just eidt that file and change rates on the fly

[celest halo]

i ran my ASE one on linux so could never use ASM lol

[gentle terrace]

anyone having issues with dinos falling thru ground?

[tender root]

all the time - no idea if this is a game issue or a server issue

[gentle terrace]

i have 4 dinos fall thru the ground , tried everytyhing to get it out, teleport dino isnt working, movecreature isnt working, nothing is working to get it out

and no cryo's (ty wildcard) , there is nothing i can do

[hybrid lark]

I saw a mod to retrieve lost dinos but I havent tested it yet

[gentle terrace]

all this would be a non issue if wildcard would just put cryopods in the game

[rigid helm]

its pretty much ark optimalization, i would was, our 30+/70 after 24h without restarts gets on half of that, so 26gb. Im suspecting it have something to do with dinospaws.. I feel like they go over cap for some reason, every dinowipe both ping and ram usage dropping down like crazy

[cloud jetty]

So i have a couple questions about Nitrado ASA servers. 1 - does Nitrado save the map and all player data when i switch maps back and fourth? 2 - can players transfer their survivors/dinos/items between the maps on one server? (I plan on keeping backups for both maps just incase)

[rain widget]

how do i turn off character downloading

[daring pier]

Hello, everyone. Maybe someone has an idea of what's wrong and can help me. Setup a dedicated server via SteamCMD and it doesn't seem to use the game user settings, apart from the server password. No multipliers, no rates, nothing. I tried to copy the ini from SP and non-dedicated, same issue. Any ideas?

[rain widget]

My server isn’t showing in the list anymore?

[peak sapphire]

You can on ASE so makes no sense why you wouldn’t be able to on ASA. On ASE you would have to upload items/dinos but not your character as you’ll spawn in on the map with it. May cause a long spawner if on PvP and not adjusted respawn timers.

[crystal nebula]

Anyone have any knowledge on the Maewing Mod in ASA? Trying to find where they are put what the Summon command is since Vanilla Command isn't working

*where they are spawning and what the Summon command is *

[cloud jetty]

Awesome thanks, pardon my ignorance this is the first time I’ll be getting into renting a server so i just want to make sure i know what im getting into

[white garnet]

where can we get mod ids to add to server?

[hearty imp]

Anyone knows if anything like Primal Fear Will be comming to Asa?

[white garnet]

im certain full conversion mods will come eventually but those kind of mods will take a good amount of time

[peak sapphire]

I can’t see why it would work differently on ASA than it does on ASE. Just be cautious especially with your back ups

[summer venture]

how many people are on server, how many dinos, how many tames, how long server has been on, etc.

the servers do not have persistent generation, but do have a very large radius that begins play for actors within a certain range.

[lavish grail]

If i want babies eating less do i turn the baby food consumption multilier up or down?

[summer venture]

doooooown i am pretty sure

[violet tide]

Is there a setting I have to turn on for tribe alliances? Me and some friend just tried to alliance up and none of us had the option

[valid quest]

Soon

[worn belfry]

would Babycuddleintervalmultiplier=0.125 make prints hourly?

[inner adder]

How many cores and what clock speed would I need to host 1 ASA server?

[white garnet]

thats going to depend heavily on how many players you plan on having, i run my server on a 3ghz 4 core processor thats like 10 years old... but i only have at max around 5 players typically

[inner adder]

Yeah me too pretty much. It might max out at 10 or 15, but would it still be similar?

[hearty imp]

Thanks man💪

[white garnet]

you might experience some lag at more than 10 if youve got a similar processor but it should be overall fine.

[inner adder]

Alright. I’ve just seen that there’s memory leaks and some people have had more than 51GB of ram being used

[white garnet]

if you do a daily restart it should be good, ive not seen anything higher than about 18 gigs used for ram but it usually just spikes then goes back down to around 8-10gb

[celest halo]

curseforge website project id is modid

[white garnet]

thanks, i did end up finding that 😄

[frail ferry]

anyone get ORP working in ASa yet?

why does my screen lock after opening my dino's inventory

[scarlet lichen]

I gave my server 48GB memory and i've never seen it go above 19GB. but its just me and 2 others

[rigid helm]

26 gigs without daily restart

but that aint the issue, you can do daily reset at 3am and its okay... ping is the issue thats bothering almost everyone on high pop

[tranquil zealot]

Is anyone else's Nitrado down?

[keen compass]

Hi , can we still host an Hardcore server,I cant see the option on nitrado?

[trim elk]

It should not go that much over the initial usage after the restart. Even without daily restart. Until the ram usage wont be stable even after lets say 3days, without spikes or something ( offcourse additional players online have to consume more, but it should go back after they leave), we can not say it is fine.

Good evening! I have uploaded the game.ini to the windows server folder, but the server does not pick up the configuration information that I changed via single player, I tried to edit it manually and it didn't change either, is there anything I need to change for the server to understand it as a valid configuration?

[spark kelp]

k

[tardy pine]

You arent setting those configs in your start arguments are you?

[floral flower]

in server.bat? not. what i add in server bat to recongnise this config?

[spark kelp]

do you have a discord for that

Thanks man💪

Is it a dedicated self hosted server or a nitrado server?

[floral flower]

dedicated self

[austere mauve]

They seriously need to fix the memory leak... Some other guy ran his main map to 110gb ram before he noticed loool. It's an exponential leak too. Doubles/triples ram usage every few hours.

[spark kelp]

thanks

[honest berry]

Have they said when/if linux server files are to be available

[tardy pine]

SO you have a file to launch the server

call D:\Steam_Servers\ArkSA\ShooterGame\Binaries\Win64\ArkAscendedServer.exe "TheIsland_WP?SessionName=Stoner Island [NA - 1X Vanilla Settings - Easy Dinos]?ServerAdminPassword=XXXXX?RCONEnabled=True?RCONPort=XXXXX?QueryPort=27015?Port=7777?listen -UseBattlEye"

You can set any of the configs in there and they will overwrite whatever is in your ini file

[floral flower]

thx a lot bro!

[tardy pine]

I have to reboot periodically through the day so my server doesn't get clogged up and hang, I've had it fill 64 gigs in under a day with under 10 players

[rain widget]

Is there a bug causing dinos not to spawn?

[torpid spear]

is there a cheat to see dead bodies I died, went back to get my stuff moved my body got attacked and droped it

[rain geyser]

whats the deal with SteamCMD not updating? My server stuck on 25.41

[torpid spear]

so no?

what is it?

[vagrant ledge]

Sadly no, you just have to go back and look for your body or a bag on the ground

[loud sphinx]

does anyone know how to increase the tribe dino limit?

[obsidian sandal]

yes i just did it this morning

[loud sphinx]

how does the magic work please? 😮

[obsidian sandal]

in GUS under [Server Settings]
MaxTamedDinos=50000
MaxPersonalTamedDinos=500

change numbers as you see fit. first number is the whole server. 2nd is tribe.

[tardy pine]

What am I looking at here?

[sour holly]

stuf cant get commands to work or the server like joinable; it shows in server listings unofficial tho lol

sorry T.T sick and half asleep

[tardy pine]

I can send you my usersettings.ini but I dont think that is the issue

[humble thicket]

anyone got a good pvp pc eu server me and my friends could join? we wanna get to know the pvp side of ark but we cant find a good server

[sour holly]

please just ot be safe

[tardy pine]

what is in your start up batch file? make sure to remove the password and rcon port from the text before posting it if that's in there

[sour holly]

I have a panel

[tardy pine]

nitrado?

[sour holly]

my own

rmv() { echo "stopping server"; rcon -t rcon -a 127.0.0.1:${RCON_PORT} -p ${ARK_ADMIN_PASSWORD} DoExit && wait ${ARK_PID}; echo "Server Closed"; exit; }; trap rmv 15 2; proton run ./ShooterGame/Binaries/Win64/ArkAscendedServer.exe TheIsland_WP?listen?MaxPlayers=70?SessionName="Guilded Reforge"?Port=7777?QueryPort=27015?RCONPort=37015?RCONEnabled=True$( [ "$SERVER_PVE" == "0" ] || printf %s '?ServerPVE=True' )?ServerPassword=""?ServerAdminPassword="nootnoot" -WinLiveMaxPlayers=70 -oldconsole -servergamelog$( [ -z "$MOD_IDS" ] || printf %s ' -mods=' $MOD_IDS )$( [ "$BATTLE_EYE" == "1" ] || printf %s ' -NoBattlEye' ) & ARK_PID=$! ; tail -c0 -F ./ShooterGame/Saved/Logs/ShooterGame.log --pid=$ARK_PID & until echo "waiting for rcon connection..."; (rcon -t rcon -a 127.0.0.1:${RCON_PORT} -p ${ARK_ADMIN_PASSWORD})<&0 & wait $!; do sleep 5; done

prob not very helpful; but the ports gotta be the issue; thats why I was asking for the gus

[tardy pine]

Setting the ports like that will overwrite anything that is in the ini file anyway, you doing that bit right. It's showing in the server browser so that emans the network traffic is getting out. Is it getting back in to receive the connection? as in, are ports forwarded?

[sour holly]

the only port showing as open is rcon when using like portchecker.com or som.

[tardy pine]

is it a rented windows server box or is it on an old PC in your house somewhere?

FYI: change your admin password. It's right there in the text you posted.

[sour holly]

its on some of the servers i have in my house

[tardy pine]

OK, so the port forwarding needs to happen in your router if you haven't done that already

[sour holly]

its been done...

[tardy pine]

7777, 7778 and 27015 (all UDP) point to the right server?

You mentioned maybe more then one server, are any other apps or game servers using those same ports?

And you will need to open the inbound windows firewall for those same ports. You can shut it off completely for a few minutes to see if that enables connections

[sour holly]

7777 was doubled for an old steamcmd terraria ---linux on a hypervisor

[white garnet]

as long as theres no other program using the same port then you should be good. but a lot of games use 7777 by default so if youve got any other servers running its possible the ports being used

[tardy pine]

make sure your router is only forwarding that port once and to the ark machine. also, make sure the terreria server is shut off. If you are on a windows server and have VM's running you might want to check the DNS configs in there to make sure 7777 isnt going off in to nowhere via internal routing

[sour holly]

wait is there a max amount of hardware that this can handle

[tardy pine]

shouldn't stop anyone from joining. they say 16 gigs of ram is needed. apart from that I havent seen any requirements for the server

[sour holly]

ive got 48 cores and 170gb of ram just for this ark thing rn to start with but I didnt think about there being a cap

during startup its only using 9~ gb of ram and 1 core of 2.6ghz

[tardy pine]

Ive got mine on 8 cores and 16 gigs. seems to run just fine. I dont think having more cores would be an issue but most game engines dont build out games for over 8 cores

[white garnet]

put -useallavailablecores in your launch command

[hollow ridge]

can't get my server to listen on 27015 no matter what I do, and whilst friends can connect using the open x.x.x.x command it won't appear in their server browser 😐

[sour holly]

Ark
WAN TCP/UDP * * WAN address 7777 192.168.5.242 7777 Game port / Raw UDP Port

WAN TCP/UDP * * WAN address 7778 192.168.5.242 7778 idk

[tardy pine]

  Port                         Purpose
UDP 27015    Query port for Steam's server browser
UDP 7777    Game client port
UDP 7778    Raw UDP socket port (always Game client port +1)
TCP 27020    RCON for remote console server access (optional)

[sour holly]

oso set them all to udp ?

[tardy pine]

so your 37015 is the rcon port. that one is TCP

[sour holly]

does it hurt to have battleye on

[rancid quarry]

should i be on single player or private server to play by myself?

[ivory yarrow]

probably singleplayer

[rancid quarry]

whys that? i hear ppl have problems w single player and when i played back in the day nothing would respawn in caves, but setting up a dedicated server js seems like a lot of work so im not sure which one to do at this point

[amber bay]

Has anybody had problems with commands on self hosted servers?

[tardy pine]

nope

[rancid quarry]

i have upgraded my pc tho so maybe that cave respawning glitch would go away

[sour holly]

T.T @tardy pine can you try to join Guilded Reforge

[ivory yarrow]

Well, it will probably get fixed for singleplayer sooner than later

[rancid quarry]

okay, do you think i should enable hibernation then?

[haughty bobcat]

i need someone to grind with and have some fun with on rag any server dosent matter

[ivory yarrow]

up to you, if your cpu is good enough go for it.

[haughty bobcat]

whos trying to play some ark??|

[pallid kestrel]

Anyones obelisks not working?

[fiery wadi]

So I set my admin password on my dedicated server in the GameUserSettings.ini but for some reason I cannot enable cheats. "enablecheats [Password]" does nothing. I literally set the Password in the server start line and also in the settings file. Any tips?

[pallid kestrel]

Did you set it in the general settings as well?

[amber bay]

I'm having that same issue

[fiery wadi]

In another file?

[ivory yarrow]

try cheat enablecheats (password)

[fiery wadi]

does nothing

[pallid kestrel]

The general settings outside the config files

[fiery wadi]

Every guide out there says to just specify the password in the GameUserSettings.ini and then it should work

[ivory yarrow]

ServerAdminPassword=password
under serversettings in gameusersettings.ini

[fiery wadi]

Yes I set that up. And it does not work for me.

[ivory yarrow]

odd

[fiery wadi]

You mean like in my own client? Cause I can't find any settings there. And idk what other settings there would be on a dedicated server. Not like I have an interface where I can just tick "enable admin"

[pallid kestrel]

sorry haven't used a Dedi server I didn't realise it was only config settings, try post in unofficial channel though, I'm an idiot that is this channel

[summer venture]

Did you use the steamCMD method?

[fiery wadi]

Yes

[deft wind]

Is this a bug that causes Rcon to fail to send broadcast (server message)? in ASA

[summer venture]

Put it in your start.bat file @echo off
echo ------------------
echo Updating server
echo ------------------
start SteamCMD\steamcmd.exe +force_install_dir ..\server\ +login anonymous +app_update 2430930 validate +quit

echo ------------------
echo Starting server
echo ------------------

[amber orbit]

anyone still looking for an ark server to call home if so I have a private pve server with about 23 slots left just msg me and ill give you the info

[summer venture]

On mobile so had to copy whole damn thing but its in the server start line

[white garnet]

check in server-ads or recruiting channel, might be able to find people there

[fiery wadi]

alright for some odd reason because I had it in the bat file it took the remainder of the command and set it as the admin password. So my pw was like "[actual PW I set]?Port=7777?MaxPlayers=70". I typed that in and it worked xD

[tardy pine]

Sent you a DM

[celest halo]

port 7777 will not show open when using that site, its a UDP port not TCP. port 27015 is not used they switched to EOS network from steams

[peak forge]

is there a S+ mod yet? I really miss the cloud pull/transfer/advanced transfer gun tools

[celest halo]

if its not on curseforge then its not there yet

[peak forge]

just didn't know if those features were maybe a part of one of the collection of mods

[mellow zodiac]

is there a command to lower grass density?

[dreamy venture]

Grass.density 0 or something like that.
Removes all grass except harvestable bushes.

[plucky copper]

has anyone designed a program for command used in global chat for kits

[silver dragon]

I noticed the same I think it needs a break not a question mark at the end of the password going to try that later, in the mean time I am just using my password plus all that as my password and it works just fine

[celest halo]

put the admin password last before the - args

[vocal night]

Has anyone had the issue where they can't slow down baby maturation on their server? I've changed it in the ini but the babies are still growing up in under a min

[celest halo]

put admin password after maxplayers so its last in the group

[agile gorge]

anyone know the game.ini line for disabling specific dino spawns?
Ex:
NPCReplacements=(FromClassName="Ichthyornis_Character_BP_C",ToClassName="Dodo_character_BP_C")
seems to not work anymore.

or were the dino bp names changed?

[slender shale]

My wife, over lan 7 feet away, could connect fine for days, now gets constant host timeout connection. I can connect from same machine server is running on. Friends outside of network can connect. Nothing has changed. Constantly tells her already in session and ping of 0

[mild quarry]

Would my PC be fine hosting a dedicated for me and a friend, while simultaneously playing the game? Ryzen 5 Nvidia 3070ti, 34gb RAM, SSDs

[slender shale]

I have 64gb of ram, and a Nvidia 1660 Super, and run it fine from same machine with 5 other players connected. Other than my wife having connection issues over lan now...

[mild quarry]

Alright perfect thanks!

[slender shale]

I had to put ServerAdminPassword at the very end to fix my blackscreening

[mild quarry]

can anyone point me in the right direction for some good server config rates (taming timer, egg hatching etc) for a couple of players that want to enjoy the game without too much hassle but also not completely easy mode

[patent spindle]

How can it be almost a week and Wildcard doesn't even MENTION a fix to the single biggest issue with tribe corruption and server hangs? Unbelievable. The amount of money they've already lost over this has to be staggering.

[gentle turret]

Asking in case a mod or dev sees, is it a bug that DinoCount won’t go above 1.0 on dedicated servers or singleplayer in ASA? (I have messed with the .Ini files and also set the slider above 1.0)

[stray axle]

people dont understand anymore what early access games means lol. Yes the game wil have tons of bugs and issues and if you cant handle it. there was a warning on steam shop. 😂

[patent spindle]

Bugs is one thing, but losing tribe constantly and servers disappearing for days at a time isn't acceptable.

[stray axle]

i also dont understand whay there is no password protection option for multiplayer non dedicated.

[fading fossil]

are these servers gonna update damnnnn

[junior vector]

Is flyer speed leveling still broken on dedicated servers?

[upper lichen]

Im using nitrado for a server and it seems like alot of the files to “tweak” the server are just missing completely… any idea on how to get them all back in ?

[grizzled horizon]

Nice people with ark no legit can play in servers legit gg ark

[native wave]

so is there some other parameter to add to the command line to get ASA to use a port other than 7777 for the game port? Rcon works, but I'm using different ports for ASA because I host other servers...but it refuses to use anything but 7777

[ivory yarrow]

?Port=port

[upper lichen]

Nitrado sucks man i used a different provider for evolved it was way smoother

[native wave]

oh you mean like this? TheIsland_WP?listen?SessionName=Thor's Domain - The Ascended Isle?ServerPassword=**********?ServerAdminPassword=*******?Port=7797?QueryPort=27004?RCONEnabled=True?RCONPort=37015?ServerPVE=True?MaxPlayers=15" -NoBattlEye -WinLiveMaxPlayers=15

it's listening on port 7777....also on 37015 for rcon...but ignores my other port settings

[indigo garnet]

could i get some help identifying why my server isn't showing up?
setup looks like
start ArkAscendedServer.exe "TheIsland?SessionName=xxxx?ServerPassword=xxxxx?ServerAdminPassword=xxxxx?MaxPlayers=8?MultiHome=xxxxxPort=27015?QueryPort=27016?listen"
exit

[native wave]

hosting in a windows 10 vm on proxmox. I can connect to internally, but no one else can connect

[indigo garnet]

its been awhile since i've hosted so maybe its just that this isn't the right config anymore?

[native wave]

The map name is TheIsland_WP for ASA

[indigo garnet]

probably wouldn't help lol

[gentle turret]

Asking in case a mod or dev sees / anyone knows whats wrong, is it a bug that MaxTamedDinos wont go over 100 and DinoCount won’t go above 1.0 on dedicated servers or singleplayer in ASA? (I have messed with the .Ini files and also set the slider above 1.0)

[bitter sable]

You want Port=7777?QueryPort=27015

[white garnet]

those settings work perfectly fine on my server =/

[native wave]

make sure your ini files aren't being overwritten

[white garnet]

also do you have MaxPersonalTamedDinos= if youre meaning tamed dinos for the tribe?

MaxTamedDinos is for the entire server, and you wont see that number listed i think

[indigo garnet]

steam still says the server doesn't exist (cringe)

[agile gorge]

v25.61 (server) v25.62 (client) - 11/1/2023 - Minor version for servers and clients

Previously disabled server optimizations have been re-enabled now that the hang crash has been fixed

anyone else see a major dip in ram use after this patch?
went from 13g to 7g

[ivory yarrow]

ASA doesnt use steam, how are you hosting?

[white garnet]

steam server browser doesnt see server, need to use the ingame browser

[indigo garnet]

self hosting

[white garnet]

no server will come up on the steam server browser as they dont post to steam

[indigo garnet]

just checked ingame, its also not appearing there

[white garnet]

and youve forwarded the ports correctly?

[indigo garnet]

i believe so but obv i cant send an image

[white garnet]

scrolling up looking at your launch config you did change TheIsland to TheIsland_WP correct?

[indigo garnet]

yes

[indigo garnet]

udp, specific ports, 7777, 27015

[white garnet]

you have your ports Port=27015?QueryPort=27016 try separating them out by 1, so do like 27014 and 27016

[indigo garnet]

i now have them set as Port=7777?QueryPort=27015 as per earlier advice

[modern igloo]

The map name for ASA is TheIsland_WP

[indigo garnet]

yeah

[bitter bear]

Have they released the files for 25.61 yet?

[white garnet]

open up a command prompt and type netstat -a -p UDP and make sure its actually using 7777 and 27015 @indigo garnet

[indigo garnet]

seems like its not using 27015

[white garnet]

its possible that one wont show, is something using 7777 though? or is it doing something dumb like using 7778

[indigo garnet]

yes, 7777 is reporting being used

[gentle turret]

You have DinoSpawning above 1.0?

[frozen hill]

Besides the current inherent instability of ASA, how reliable is Nitrado in hosting servers? Is it actually worth it to pay $68 for a 3 month rental?

[white garnet]

i double checked after saying that and my dino spawns is at 1 but the maxtamed and maxpersonaltamed are 10000 and thats working

[gentle turret]

I just got those to work, just dinospawns is still stuck. Ive been trying to up it for 3 days

[indigo garnet]

yeah i split the rule into two seperate rules, one for each port

still appears to not exist as far as asa is concerned

[inner adder]

Will my server show up on the server list if I don’t have my ports forwarded yet?

[frail ferry]

ORP work for anyone yet? If so how do I fix it

[cloud sorrel]

@inner adder no it might not depends on your setup... I just set my server computer as the dmz host and I don't have to port forward to it

[whole stratus]

Does anyone know why my unofficial server keeps disappearing and I can't join it

I need help 😫

[indigo garnet]

still need help on why my server is

not real

[queen lodge]

Anyone having issues with 50/50 getting packed with structures and dinos?

[harsh forge]

No 25.61 for unofficial yet

[alpine flame]

is the new server version not available yet for unofficial? cant get it updated to 25.61. my update bat worked all the time until now

[native wave]

ah so I'm not going crazy....thanks

[harsh forge]

I guess the only good part is they are testing it on official first, and no ones making death threats in #general so it must be a good patch
