[rigid yacht]

does anyone have help on tick error fix? buddy cant join but does not have anything to do with full player i been backing out to have him take my spot and he still cant join?

[whole stratus]

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

[harsh forge]

Maybe if you ask in 5 more channels someone will know 😉

[whole stratus]

what a good idea

[white garnet]

structures? no, but the dinos thing has been a problem since very early ASE

[queen lodge]

Yeah it's becoming a problem. If I deleted the structure, an identical structure in somenes base gets deleted.

[white garnet]

thats fuckin weird lol, never heard of that before.

[queen lodge]

More gets added to the pile every restart.

[white garnet]

ive only ever seen a few dimorphs and quetzals getting stuck around 50.50

[scenic orchid]

is the latest version of the server binaries actually available? I am still pulling 25.55

[gleaming whale]

how to install mods on server ?

[mellow zodiac]

Anybody else blackscreening when trying to join your server, both me and friends having this issue

[native wave]

nope

would be nice if, when posting pc-patch-notes, they told us what changes apply to what branches

[brazen goblet]

not yet

[torpid spear]

grab the project id form curseforge.

add the ID to the .bat file and the gus.ini

in the bat file it goes befor the no transfer and nobattleeye "-mods=928597,928717 -NoTransferFromFiltering -NoBattlEye"
in gus.ini "ActiveMods=928597,928717"

[gleaming whale]

tysm

[scenic orchid]

Ok, I thought so. Just making sure I wasn't hitting some sort of weird cache issue or something.

[torpid spear]

np

[woven linden]

Do the same commands work for admin of your own dedicated server? I tried to save and then shutdown the server but nothing happened. Not had to do this before as I had a web UI before. Maybe it has changed for ASA? Also is there a way to do a save and shutdown from the server? Are there newer docs for ASA?

I did:
enablecheats ADMINPASSWORD
cheat saveworld
cheat quit

Ah, someone mentioned this elsewhere.

the command is enablecheats (code)

[bronze bronze]

anyone figured out what ends up causing save corruptions?

[pseudo sentinel]

HAven't had one yet

[bronze bronze]

2nd time its happened, thankfully backup

[cloud sorrel]

@woven linden I just type exit in the server command window on the dedicated server..
Hit the up arrows in top right corner to expose the command line

[pseudo sentinel]

What are you hosting the server on?

[bronze bronze]

own box i own, aint a drive issue or anything thats for sure

[woven linden]

Thank you, I'll look for that.

[pseudo sentinel]

I would guess it's hardware, the game is so new that it's not optimized for every setup.

More specifically it's not optimized for a non nitrado setup lol

[cloud sorrel]

@woven linden I haven't saved just exit seems to work

[woven linden]

Ah. Well, I guess I have to do more research then. Seems like something that should be possible to do from the server, but no idea. Still have lots to learn.

[cloud sorrel]

@woven linden when I was testing stuff... I shut it down by typing exit in the command line of the server .. it saves and shuts down in one command.

[woven linden]

Oh, nice. I'll have to figure that out tomorrow. My brain is fried. Luckily it saved a bit after I wanted to quit so I just shut it down another way. Though I'd like it a cleaner way like you said.

[glossy cairn]

Why does baby skeletal trike not grow?

[bronze bronze]

Considering it was first reported on nitrado servers a few days ago I doubt it's hardware lol

[shut hare]

best part of renting a nitrado server, is having to manually use 3rd party software to fix problem's that nitrado should be doing themselves. so awesome .

[bronze bronze]

Lol

Is there actually anyway to tell which it is?

[echo frigate]

does asm work for asa?

[bronze bronze]

No

[mellow zodiac]

Anybody else black screening when trying to join their server?

i dont even see an attempt to join on my console

[dawn shard]

Looking for help from a mod developer, need help understanding how to setup ingame shop UI

[barren swan]

I would guess that the server is in a crashed state or a port forwarding issue

[mellow zodiac]

thanks, it was a conflicting line in an ini

next issue im having is not being able to enable cheats with the enablecheats PW command

[whole stratus]

Hey, I was just hoping somebody could help me How do I make it so my babies only need one Imprint on my server

[brazen goblet]

BabyImprintAmountMultiplier=119 should do it
BabyCuddleIntervalMultiplier=0.010416667
BabyCuddleLoseImprintQualitySpeedMultiplier=0.0001
will also help

[bronze bronze]

Is that server patch out yet?

[barren swan]

Look into GameUserSettings.ini and verify that the ServerAdminPassword is the right value. There's an issue where the password is not properly parsed.

[hardy pelican]

has the new patch come to unnoficial yet

[humble thicket]

Anyone know any good role play servers for asa

[dusky viper]

anyone know how to edit the .ini for dedicated servers to update the server difficulty to match official? Ive used the listed below, but im still getting super low dino levels
DifficultyOffset=5.0
OverrideOfficialDifficulty=5.0

[hidden notch]

anyone know why my unofficial server isnt reading my custom levels and flyer movement speed is anyone having this issue or found a fix for it

[neon portal]

Flyer speed movement doesn't work here neither

[whole stratus]

thx

[neon portal]

Clean ur map first with a wild dino wipe. After that U should be good

[proven umbra]

is there any update on flyer speed not working on dedicated servers?

[barren swan]

So there are new flags for speed (-AllowSpeedLeveling -AllowFlyerSpeedLeveling) in addition to bAllowFlyerSpeedLeveling=true, but they don't seem to work either :(

[marsh dome]

UNetConnection::Tick:Connection

Anyfix>?

[hidden notch]

i have bAllowSpeedLeveling=true that works but bAllowFlyerSpeedLeveling=true isn't though dont know why one is working and ones not

[harsh lotus]

hey can anyone pls halp me, how to add mods to my dedi

[unborn shoal]

Is there a reason I’d be struggling to locate any servers atm or is it just being not so nice? 🤣

[frigid vine]

Official was LVL 150?
Then you have to set the first to 1 and second 5.

Don't forget to wipe the dinos after rebooting the server

[vestal cloud]

i would love it if, with patch info, they said if its available for unofficial servers too....

[rigid helm]

whats up with the item quality on ASA? why is everything just OP... both LootCrate and Fishing Quality is on 1.0 still there are items like almost capped weapons and 230+ armor bps for saddles

[vestal cloud]

with LootCrate quality = 2.0 i got a bowgun with almost 570 quality

[fiery lily]

anyone else getting issues with tames getting stuck under the mesh?

[eternal moss]

can i get help i am using the OverridePlayerLevelEngramPoints=50000 comand in my servers ini but it wont increace my total engrams

[bronze bronze]

i guess 25.55 is still in the current one since the update gives that?

[rigid helm]

since last patch none of the tames stucked under mesh, including ankies whom before had astounding 100% chance of stucking under mesh in certain areas

[vagrant ledge]

We have a had one specifik tribe get that woth about 6 tames so far and I think its a common issue right now

[gleaming whale]

had heaps of that too

[river tinsel]

Hey server owner, did you have this crash ?
tu as deja eu le crash :

Fatal error!

Unhandled Exception: EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION reading address 0x0000001000000212

?

[lean anvil]

Ever since the latest update my server is now stuck in a rolling restart

[vocal relic]

Wait so they fixed it now?

[eternal moss]

what is the max lvl?

[bronze bronze]

you most likely have a corrupted tribe file

[rigid helm]

hard to say, as they are not completely transparent of what they doing every patch, but since 25.54 not a single dino on our server went into mesh

[swift whale]

Can dino’s have wasted points in speed in ASA? (In breeding or taming) or is it gone now?

[feral nexus]

do brontos just not go on rafts?

been trying to get it on one and it dosent want to, built ceilings and once it got on the ceilings connected to the raft it slid right off

[celest halo]

You would be correct, they are very good about putting out patch notes and updating officials then taking hours to day to update public branch for unofficial. It’s like they don’t care much about us

It’s even worse when it’s a major version change and client updates but you can’t update your server and can’t connect due to the major version change

[fickle idol]

Why can’t I open the console?

[compact pivot]

Probably end of November

[stuck tinsel]

i tryed serverchat via rcon it send to the server ':' only and the message is not there with mcrcon

Okay i find the solution

again one question, i search to add mod on my dedicated server (without nitrado) anyone did it ?

already did it, but nothing happen

[elfin forum]

Are the events also automatically uploaded to unofficial servers?

[celest halo]

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

[stuck tinsel]

okay nice, and on gus ? nothing ? in which section we need to add it ?

[celest halo]

Nothing in gus

[stuck tinsel]

okay

thanks i will test it now 😉

[stuck tinsel]

it didnt seems to ask me to install mod, so i think it'snot working

[toxic valley]

heyyy, I set the difficulty on TheIsland to max lvl 300 with OverrideOfficialDifficulty 10, but is there any possibility to make lvl 200-300 dinos common and not rly rly rly rly rly rly rare? :(

[summer fable]

my server is stuck on version 25.55. I've tried moving the files and downloading new files thru steamcmd and steam. Any1 got any ideas

[stuck tinsel]

the installation of mods is automatic ? on the server

[bronze bronze]

they haven't pushed the update to steam yet

[stuck tinsel]

seems to not working and i set exactly like you: 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

so weird, i joined the server without any promps of installing mods (i don't have any mod installed on my computer)

[summer fable]

thanks

[vast mica]

if me and my brother want to run a "server" from his pc whats the best way to do it. we both wanna play on xbox too when it eventually comes out

[naive panther]

anyone knows how to do a broadcast via rcon? cheat broadcast in console works fine, but brodacast via rcon does not

[lean anvil]

anyone got a solution getting randomly timed out yet? Seems to just randomly happen to my friend out of no where

[atomic hearth]

Anyone know who runs SHutter-Island server?

[spiral sapphire]

we frequently get the update much later than official servers

[bronze bronze]

not this late

[spiral sapphire]

There were some we didnt even get because next patch came out

[celest halo]

I have seen it take them 24 hours before

[spiral sapphire]

I really believe WC is shotgunning fixes on official, making sure they work, then pushing to Unofficials

[celest halo]

That is what they do, and it really sucks when it's a major version change and not a minor

[spiral sapphire]

im perfectly happy for official to be guinea pigs

[celest halo]

For an hour or 2 I am also it's these 12+ hours that suck

[celest halo]

you using the project id from curseforge

[pallid kestrel]

Anyone else's decay timers resetting on server restart?

[mystic forge]

Hey guys i was trying to tweak some settings on my server and then I restarted it and now I cant find it at all even after reversing said settings.

[pallid kestrel]

Is it getting stuck in an update loop?

[mystic forge]

No nothing, even when I would restart it, it would be as if it is normal.

[pallid kestrel]

Double checked the name? My servers name got reset during a restart the other day

[stuck tinsel]

what is the problem ? what i should use ?

[slender shale]

Still no 25.61 for dedicated? 10 hours later...

[celest halo]

not yet

[celest halo]

not sure what the problem is, mine downloads the mod when i start it with the bat i posted that you found

[mental jewel]

I used rcon-cli and it shows up in the lower left in yellow text

[stuck tinsel]

yeah i find i need to use this: mcrcon.exe -c -H localhost -P %server1_rconport% -p %pass% Enter "serverchat message" and now it works

[stuck tinsel]

yeah it's really weird because i used exactly the same, it's like it doesnt care about the mod, should i need to put the mods somewhere in the server ?

[spiral sapphire]

Anyone able to get the Player List portion of ASM working (specifically in the RCON panel) - Server running fine using ASM after some tweaks, stays up with no crashes, can send commands and global chat with the RCON panel, but cant get the players list

[celest halo]

with the bat i posted, my server downloads the mods on start

[stuck tinsel]

okay maybe i need to open some port ? to download on curseforge
i will try with disable firewalls temporary, and where the mods is installed on your server ?

[left ice]

Anyone else found a way to edit (or hide) engrams in ASA. using the old ASE line in the game.ini but it doesn't seem to be working. (Just hiding some cosmetic backpack options, or trying to)

OverrideNamedEngramEntries=(EngramClassName="EngramEntry_TravelBackpackLanternTier1",EngramHidden=True)

Doesn't seem to actually hide it.

[stuck tinsel]

same with open ports, so weird, i don't understand, where your mods is installed ?

[north belfry]

same here cant open it, activated in advanced settings, and changed the keybind still not working

adding server via steam gameserver doesnt work so i need to join via console "open 192...(ip)"

[fickle idol]

I mean there is the option to use the console per pause Menü yk but it’s annoying

[north belfry]

yeah but its for ingame but i need it in the server menu

[stuck tinsel]

what is the -UseDynamicConfig ?? what it will do ?

[hidden notch]

are you trying to find the old tab button

[spiral sapphire]

lets you update your ini's on the fly from a url @stuck tinsel

[north belfry]

yes

[hidden notch]

button under excape

[north belfry]

bruh i dont have it lmao 60% keyboard xd with fn buttons doesnt work ether

[tawny elbow]

@proven prawn Any reason why its been almost 12 hours since the patch dropped and its still not available?

[hidden notch]

my bad didnt know

[stuck tinsel]

oh really nice

[north belfry]

all good but the button doesnt work ingame

[tawny elbow]

its fully documented under ASE Server Configuration on the wiki

[celest halo]

the UseDynamicConfig dont work, mods on server install to ShooterGame\Binaries\Win64\ShooterGame\Mods

[tawny elbow]

Works for me

[stuck tinsel]

Thanks i will check if it installed there

there is no shootergame folder in Win64 folder in mine x), so it's not downloading for what reason, i don't understand

[dull thicket]

Anyone know why this keeps gettign erased from the game.ini file? PerLevelStatsMultiplier_DinoTamed_Add[0]=

[spiral sapphire]

UseDynamicConfig works if you use it right

also it doesnt let you change everything on the fly

[queen lodge]

Right now, like most servers, my server has the 50/50 black hole issue.

The issue was apparent in ASE, where dinos would get transferred to 50, 50 on the map due to it being the "true zero" location in the engine. If a dino didn't have a location due to a bug, it went to 50, 50 on the map.

In ASA, the problem has escelated to not only dinos, but structures. Right now on my server I have a few hundred structures at 50/50. I did some testing in a testing sandbox with my servers backup and found that when I delete structures at 50/50, it appears to be deleting other items as well. My best guess is that all structures at 50/50 are copies of structures that exist elsewhere, and when deleted, they both get deleted.

Has anyone found a better solution to manage this other than telling your tribes to deal with the loss? My server's RAM usage is off the charts compared to similar servers and I think the Arkmuda Triangle is to blame.

[celest halo]

i have a custom url set for it like i did with ASE and its not loading it

[spiral sapphire]

@queen lodge are you using mods?

[queen lodge]

Nope

[spiral sapphire]

@celest halo you know it takes 15 min to update if you dont use ForceUpdateDynamicConfig

[queen lodge]

I loaded mods to test, but reverted my server back to premods after we had issues with them

[spiral sapphire]

how many concurrent users @queen lodge

[celest halo]

yup servers been running for 24 hours, never loads the setting that where in the DynamicConfig before server was even started

[spiral sapphire]

ive got a server running with about 8-10 concurrent and i never go over about 13G ram used
@celest halo what setting are you trying to update?

[queen lodge]

Currently, around 6-10 with an average of 20-30/50. Occasionally we hit cap

[spiral sapphire]

maybe people being extra messy, not cleaning up, etc?

lots of people still dont know that you can pick up the foundation of something and it picks up everything attached if it woulda fallen, so they just leave amess

[celest halo]

my file is TamingSpeedMultiplier=3.0 HarvestAmountMultiplier=3.0 XPMultiplier=3.0 MatingIntervalMultiplier=0.5 BabyMatureSpeedMultiplier=3.0 EggHatchSpeedMultiplier=3.0 BabyCuddleIntervalMultiplier=0.6 BabyImprintAmountMultiplier=3.0 none of that works

it worked with ASE, with ASA nothing

[spiral sapphire]

i know others have reported it working

i want to figure out how to get the Player List working with ASM's RCON panel

[dull thicket]

Getting an issue where babies are coming out only males.

[nimble talon]

Same, none of those settings work for me either, they say they are set in the config, but the levels are extremely sporadic on dinos, from 8 to 130, really weird. and the taming still takes forever

[spiral sapphire]

Stolen is talking about via dyanmic config, those changes work with normal ini change

[nimble talon]

Ah, are the rates just extremely slow then? Even at the "max"? Because the ingame admin manager shows it all correctly

[spiral sapphire]

ive found that with Taming at 4, it matches the time shown by dododex

I do think the mating / baby mature stuff might need tobe in a different spot than xp/taming/harvest

[dusky radish]

are stat multipliers only floats or can they be intergers as well?

[peak forge]

needs to be in the game.ini not the settings.ini

what I would recommend y'all doing is, if a line isn't working in the settings.ini try it in the game.ini

[summer venture]

ALSO, change these settings in Singleplayer and then any that you change from the base game will show up in THOSE .ini and you can xfer them to your servers

[dusky radish]

Do these stats seem balanced for 2 player server who want to do bosses but dont have time to have perfect level mutate for alpha bosses?

[nimble talon]

I'm convinced some of you people are actually machines and not people, things happen way too fast

[peak forge]

wym?

[summer venture]

The sh*t hits the fan pretty quick for sure if you're talking ingame

[nimble talon]

Haha, that message came by super faster after the one guy asked 😄

[summer venture]

I've been helping people so much, i keep those files open lmao

[nimble talon]

So in Game.Ini should these be under a [ServerSettings] Section?

[patent spindle]

Yeah, everyone

[summer venture]

So if you copy them from your SP and put them into your server, they go under the sections that they were under, if you dont have the sections, in Game.ini it goes under, [/Script/ShooterGame.ShooterGameMode]
in GameUserSettings.ini, most of the these you change are under [Server Settings]

[nimble talon]

Ah

So for the taming rates and stuff I should remove them off the GUS ini and move them to the Game.ini?

[summer venture]

Yes.

[sage swan]

Keep an eye on your server runtime and specifically when it is supposed to end

I had an entire day's worth of runtime left and they charged me an extension without taking into account the remaining time i had left

[celest halo]

i keep the search section in discord open when at work with all my messages so i can just copy and past from older messages lmao

[loud sphinx]

Is the bug with the TEK cryochamber and dino spawn from data fixed?

[summer venture]

I have a text file i just send people with most settings that can be changed lol

[sage swan]

So, I had purchased 3 days and they recharged me after only two and completely scammed me out of an entire day

[nimble talon]

Whats up with the million extra ini files in the saved folder now lol

[celest halo]

better question is why they all empty lmao

[nimble talon]

true 😄

[celest halo]

just love how WC does patch releases asalive 12596530 11 hours ago public 12586225 2 days ago

[slender shale]

Are there any error logs saved somewhere, showing connection failures?

I can connect from same machine dedi is running on.
4 other people outside network can connect.
1 person on lan could connect ever since dedi has been available, now cant connect since yesterday afternoon. Just constant host timeout. Nothing has changed.

[dull thicket]

anyone else having the only male babies hatching?

[slender shale]

I have had females.

[alpine flame]

so true

[alpine flame]

where did you find that information?

[nimble talon]

It's from steamdb

[celest halo]

steamdb.info/app/2430930/depots/

[north spade]

still no fix on restart loop?

[barren swan]

Stuck with removing tribe files / restoring tribebak i guess

[stray axle]

hi we transferred our non dedicated save files to an running unofficial server. but the game stil see's me as the host and the thetter distance is stil in my friends face when they look ad me and my name gets red from far away. when i mark my friends i also see them teleporting in a line from base to where they are, that does not stop moving. where do i clear something in the ini files that i'm not the host anymore?

[north spade]

fucked

[raw glade]

@last wolf

This channel is for discussions about unofficial (or single player) server setups including mods and other relevant topics. You can find recruitment and server advertising channels under the #bulletin-board-rules channel.

[celest halo]

WC needs to make a patch notes channel for unofficial so we know when we can update our servers lol, 12 hours since #patch-notes and we still dont have it

[tender garnet]

Anyone get player and admin whitelisting to work? I had it working in ASE but it isn't working in ASA.

[celest halo]

nope, and i tried differnt file names, tried steamid, ingame id, hashed steamid that shows in the logfile

[slate ravine]

still take it unoficials can't patch to the latest version yet? would have expected it to be ready this morning 😦

[barren swan]

There is an -AdminListURL flag now. Probably works the same way as BanListURL but I haven't tried to use it

[celest halo]

not yet only 12 hours and counting lmao

[slate ravine]

kind of annoying not going to lie

[celest halo]

yup but would not want to think WC cares about unofficial, they did this all the time with ASE also

[slate ravine]

yeah but you would think if it was available they would put it on steam at the same time 😦

[celest halo]

its worse when its a major version change and you cant even login to your server anymore because client updated

[slate ravine]

or maybe they want to make sure it is stable before letting us plebs have it 🙂

[celest halo]

they know after an hour or 2 if its stable

[olive talon]

Branch to check unofficial patches for Ark Survival Ascended-
https://steamdb.info/app/2399830/depots/

Dedicated Server Page-
https://steamdb.info/app/2430930/depots/

[ivory yarrow]

i dont really see how thats useful here, wouldnt it be better to pin the server one?
Or both

[celest halo]

official was updated 12 hours ago, there test builds where 15 hours ago, normally if its not stable test build are updated with in 2 hours of official

[slate ravine]

will that link say when it is pushed to steam itself ?

[ivory yarrow]

yes, it pulls info only from steam, so if its there its on steam

[celest halo]

go to this one steamdb.info/app/2430930/depots/ look at update time for Public

[slate ravine]

thanks. any reason it takes so long to update it on steam?

[celest halo]

public is steam unofficial, asalive is official and nitradopc is unofficial on nitrado

[slate ravine]

that is wierd. nitradopc says updated 8 days ago but it isn't pulling that info when server is rebooted. and that says public 13 hours ago and it isn't pulling it. am I just reading it wrong?

[scenic orchid]

maybe they are using official as extended QA testing for unofficial... lol

[celest halo]

you might need to refresh i get nitradopc 12586218 2 days ago

[celest halo]

that is what they did with ASE

[slate ravine]

I am talking about the latest one that went live 13 hours ago. nitrado is still pulling the 25.55 branch

[scenic orchid]

that would make sense

[celest halo]

it sucks when its a major version change and you cant even login to your server anymore because client updated

[neat girder]

Is anyone else having a problem with the generators turning off out of nowhere?

[slate ravine]

kind of makes sense but would be good to have the announcments say it rather than going to a different website

[scenic orchid]

Yeah that will suck for sure

[celest halo]

only one that was 13 hours ago was asalive (officail servers), unofficial on nirtardo is nitradopc updated 2 days ago

[ivory yarrow]

we need the asalive password lol

[slate ravine]

gotcha.

[slender shale]

Just putting this out there incase it helps anyone later. Was having host connection timeout problems connecting over lan. I can connect fine on the same rig running the server. People outside the lan can connect fine. 1 other person over lan is getting timeouts. I went into time settings on their pc, and hit 'Sync now' to update their clock. Connected first time, and for several restarts later. After 4ish reconnects, got host connection timeout again. Synced again, connected easily again.

[celest halo]

the unoff_beta password get it before official lmao

[mellow zodiac]

Can somebody share there batch script with a server password? Every time I add a password to my server it causes us to black screen when trying to join with “open ip:port password”

[wise vigil]

ServerPassword=
under [serversettings] in GUS.ini

[slender shale]

start ArkAscendedServer.exe TheIsland_WP?listen?Port=7777?QueryPort=27015?SessionName="SERVERNAME"?MaxPlayers=10?ServerPassword=PASSWORD?ServerAdminPassword=PASSWORD -NoBattlEye

[celest halo]

start C:\Users\User\Downloads\arkasa\ShooterGame\Binaries\Win64\ArkAscendedServer.exe TheIsland_WP?listen?SessionName="some session"?MaxPlayers=10?Port=7777?ServerPassword=somepassword?ServerAdminPassword=someadminpass -gameplaylogging -servergamelog -servergamelogincludetribelogs -serverrconoutputtribelogs -forceallowcaveflyers -notransferfromfiltering -automanagedmods -mods=929420 -WinLiveMaxPlayers=10

[mellow zodiac]

Is the join Command still “open ip:port password” or is there a different syntax?

[slender shale]

Thats what I have used and it worked. The difference was putting 'ServerAdminPassword=' at the end of the script .bat file. When I had it in the middle, it blackscreended.

[leaden spoke]

@mellow zodiac I moved ot using GameUserSettings.ini for password and admin password. Before that, this was my command in the server_start.bat
echo off
start "ASAIsland" /normal "<path>\ShooterGame\Binaries\Win64\ArkAscendedServer.exe" "TheIsland_WP?SessionName=<SessionName>?MaxPlayers=30?listen?ServerPassword=<password>?MultiHome=<publicIP>?Port=<port>?QueryPort=<queryPort>?" -NoBattlEye

Now it is just:
echo off
start "ASAIsland" /normal "<path>\ShooterGame\Binaries\Win64\ArkAscendedServer.exe" "TheIsland_WP" -NoBattlEye

**In <path>\ShooterGame\Saved\Config\WindowsServer\GameUserSettings.ini: **
[ServerSettings]
ServerAdminPassword=<password>
ServerPassword=<password>

[SessionSettings]
MultiHome=<public IP>
Port=<port>
QueryPort=<queryPort>
SessionName=<ServerName>

[MultiHome]
MultiHome=True

[/Script/Engine.GameSession]
MaxPlayers=30

[celest halo]

QueryPort does nothing anymore, next reboot im testing with MaxPlayers removed dont think that does anything either with -WinLiveMaxPlayers= working for changing max players

[mellow zodiac]

I tried adding it to the end and also tried adding it to the GUI.ini and still blackscreening

echo ------------------
echo Updating server
echo ------------------
SteamCMD\steamcmd.exe +force_install_dir ..\server\ +login anonymous +app_update 2430930 validate +quit

pause

[barren swan]

You have an extra '?' at the end that could be problematic

[leaden spoke]

Yes, max players is not working for me as a parameter or in the GUS.ini.

[celest halo]

and you should not use validate in the steamcmd command when updating

[leaden spoke]

why not? I do

[celest halo]

from steamcmd doc Validate is a command that will check all the server files to make sure they match the SteamCMD files. This command is useful if you think that files may be missing or corrupted. It is recommended you use this command only on initial installation and if there are server issues.

[spiral sapphire]

ive never had an issue with validate

[celest halo]

i havnt with ark, have with other games though

[leaden spoke]

👍

[celest halo]

one of my other game server used to say upto date all the time with validate, when removed it would update. i only use it now on first install

[leaden spoke]

Easy enough to remove. Goes faster too. Still cannot get v25.61 to download

[celest halo]

25.61 is not out yet for us peons lol only out for officails

[mellow zodiac]

is [/Script/ShooterGame.ShooterGameUserSettings] and [ScalabilityGroups] supposed to be in the GUI.ini as well? i copied mine over from ase.

[leaden spoke]

I copied from local ASA launch but not sure if actually used.

[lyric python]

Has anyone figured out how to block engrams? The command doesn't seem to work

[queen shale]

Hey guys, where can I find the rates syntac is playing on ASA?

[mellow zodiac]

could you send me a ss of your GUI.ini, i wanna check if something is different since mines from ase server and maybe thats why its happening

[leaden spoke]

Sure, give me a moment

[leaden spoke]

Sent you a dm with the file

[waxen patio]

I'm trying out Ark Ascended, is it a known issue that it crashes on regular? If I don't hit save, I get set back close to 10minutes of work or more.

[dusk socket]

constantly having tribe files become corrupt and massive memory leaks are they breaking this shit on purpose? soooo confused

[vernal pasture]

i’ve had this happen a lot on my server.

[dusk socket]

yeah does it end in wipes?

[vernal pasture]

i contacted support said a wipe is not okay with time as that wa d the first solution. they fixed it

[dusk socket]

cause right now all the prior backups reload the corrupted tribe files... then cause the same issue and breaks it. i had to wipe was the only way to fix it for me they never fixed mine

[vernal pasture]

i had the same happening. loading any save is just the same corrupted save . yea i went with they we can server wipe the first time. second i said that wasn’t an acceptable option it’s happening to to many peoples has to be addressed

[honest breach]

use geforce experience and optimize it i can run it on my shitty 1660

though not great graphics but it sometimes crashes due to a lot of textures running

[dusk socket]

@vernal pasture thanks man il get on that and pray they actually get off there asses and do somethig... this is seriously just not ok at all . this is the worst launch of a video game I have EVER seen T_T

[vernal pasture]

yea honestly it’s making it super hard to run a server. if your not a prio account they’re solution is hey you want a fresh wipe? but push back a little bit bro and they’ll fix it. i finally got mine rolling great!

[waxen patio]

Any setting suggestions? I want keep the beauty, but obviously don't want it crashing.

[dusk socket]

100% thanks @vernal pasture after running servers for so many years and doing tech work my whole life... these 2 companies prob should die in a fire XD

[honest breach]

hmm.. honestly it all depends on what type of card uve got anything higher than medium for a 2090 if uve got that is gonna lag ur game

if u want you can turn off the clouds

volumetriccloud 0

makes it kinda bearable

[frail crescent]

r.volumetriccloud 0 & r.shadowquality 0 are huge FPS increases

[honest breach]

yeah that ✅

[cinder hare]

I definitely recommend, I was 19fps and now im at 38+fps just from doing the volumetric clouds

[honest breach]

medium settings or low?

[cinder hare]

medium-high settings, some are epic

[honest breach]

cant do epic i have a 1660 😢

any moment my pc will burN LOL

[cinder hare]

I've been seeing 45+ on a regular now after yesterdays patch. I've got a 3070

[honest breach]

ahh lucky bastard! lol
ive got a 2090 i just need to get it in the pc

[cinder hare]

doooo eetttt

[waxen patio]

I have Nividia GeForce RTX 3080 Ti

[honest breach]

imma try after im done with a event im going to down in virginia (on my bio)

[honest breach]

man yall lucky!

[cinder hare]

nice! have fun and good luck with installing your card.

[honest breach]

appreciate!!

[waxen patio]

Lucky? nope, just did the work to afford it.

[cinder hare]

I was on a 960 for my first card... but I saved up a lot to get this card. 1000% worth but it took a bit

[honest breach]

i dont get paid enough

my states per hour (or the job really i work) cant do that luckily getting a new one soon

[queen lodge]

Looking to buy a box, does anyone have recommendations for a box to host a 3 map cluster? Also considering a VPS.

[waxen patio]

LOL, well, never go off your state's min wages. It means absolutely nothing. It's all about what your job itself pays.

[deep compass]

Having trouble connecting to my server. Keep disconnecting whenever i try to load in. Anyone have an idea on what i could do to fix it,, It's a steam server. I've port forwarded, made exceptions in my firewall.. so i don't think it's my isp's fault as i can play any other online game just fine.

[velvet furnace]

anyone know how to make the levels on my server be like ragnarok center etc so no lvl 5 or 10 dinos

[deep compass]

It's an ASA server as well, of course.

[trim night]

So I'm trying to launch my own single player world and want to have the max level set at 150, but the leveling won't change from being in the increments of 4 to the increment of 5.
I've tried multiple times on multiple single player worlds to change this by chosing HARD as difficulty, Turning of the single player setting and "DestroyWildDinos" and letting them spawn in again. But nothing changes whatever I do. Please help me.

[slate ravine]

question on the steamdb depot for the server mentioned earlier. IT says for nitradopc 8 days ago but that can't be correct. which build would we be looking at specifically for nitrado or public on steam

[white pasture]

What timeframe is the cross platform servers supposed to be out after the console release?

[slate ravine]

I would have assumed public would have been for steam but apparently not for unnoficial servers

[tardy pine]

Will cross platform be available for unofficial servers when it comes out? Or have they said anything about it?

[slate ravine]

public says 18 hours ago when it was updated but that isn't the case 😦

[peak rampart]

Please anyone could link his .bat for upgrade the server? Mine doesn't work..

[slate ravine]

it isn't updated for unofficial yet

[white pasture]

from what I have heard it will be a little after. I just don't know how much after

[tight ocean]

Des qc /fr qui se cherche un serv ?

[fierce timber]

Has anybody been able to update to the newest server build yet? I took and rebooted our server last night and then again today, but the newest build still hasn't been updated to/installed.

[peak rampart]

Oh okay, ty

[slate ravine]

they posted a link to the depot to see but didn't actually indicate which branch was the one for unofficial servers

since public says it was updated 18 hours that probably means official server branch not self hosted pleb branch 🙂

[neat stag]

I'm pretty sure asalive is official and public is unofficial self-hosted, but could be wrong

[tight ocean]

Des qc /fr qui se cherche un serv ?

[proven sentinel]

Hey, i need some help with my own setup dedicated server on a pc. Anyone why might have 5 mins?

[slate ravine]

public says it was updated 18 hours ago though. doesn't say which build though.

I don't see asalive on the steamdb page linked earlier

[celest halo]

beewitched linked to the game page not the dedicated server page, dedicated server page is at steamdb.info/app/2430930/depots/

[olive talon]

Fixed.

[empty pollen]

Can I get a Dino back from under the map?

Got 2 raptors stuck under my base

[celest halo]

😃

[slate ravine]

thanks for that

still don't get why unofficial would need an entirely different branch though since it is the same code 😦

[nova hill]

Did .61 get released my server is still on .55 and it says it's upto date when I try to update it

[graceful escarp]

Looks like hosted servers are about 24 to 36 hours behind the power curve

[slate ravine]

they tease us with the patch notes of fixed optomization only to dash our hopes 😛

[graceful escarp]

I'm still loving the "Slow framerate detected"

[slate ravine]

mine was doing that with automated ark the other day when I had auto sorting enabled. it isn't doing it with the latest version though

might be something with stacking mods

[empty pollen]

can I change my nitrado settings for a backup that occurs every 15 minutes?

[graceful escarp]

Mod free for the moment.

You can change your Nitrado to backup every 5 or 10 minutes if you want to or 20 minutes.

[slate ravine]

anyone know why nitrado wouldn't be honoring the save interval you set? I set mine to 10 minutes and it still only saves every 20

[shut prism]

anyone got Ascended running on ARK Server Manager yet?

[dusky cape]

my server is stuck in a crash loop and wont boot anymore.

[nova hill]

Do we add steamid's of admins like ASE or is it different now?

[barren swan]

I think it works differently now, haven't been able to test it tho. There is an -AdminListURL flag now. I would assume that it works similarly to -BanListURL, but that's all I know

[inner adder]

I’m hosting a self dedicated server as a DMZ but it won’t show up on the unofficial list. Why won’t it?

[vague canyon]

when is teather distance gonna be fixed for non dedicated servers

[celest halo]

that might of took place of the ASE setting of AllowedCheatersURL

[vast badger]

What text file would I need to make to put people into exclusive join

[barren swan]

what OS is the server running ?

[static moat]

Would be anxious to see a working whitelist method for admins or for joins, but they have stripped the ability to read Steam IDs anyway. The IDs used are different. Something from Epic since they are using it as backend network now.

Stuck with password access for now until it is figured out. I don't want to be stuck troubleshooting forever and never get to play, so I will prolly wait and see what someone else cooks up now that the server is up and going.

[inner adder]

Windows

[barren swan]

which version? 10/11/Server

[inner adder]

10 @barren swan

[jade magnet]

team i got a nitrado server for asa that im trying to configure with 500 player levels. the code is immaculate but the level caps at 135. what causes this? all settings are accounted for as well

[little finch]

Without actually knowing - there are a lot of settings that flat out don’t work with ASA. Or are different variables. Gotta wait for official documentation on it.

[jade magnet]

are there common troubleshooting steps to apply? ive deleted "temporary" lines in the game.ini, its not on single player settings, and the "maxdifficulty" is set to false

[celest halo]

Win10 should have them but have tried installing the epic certs from here ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Dedicated_server_setup under crossplay with epic part

[olive talon]

Wiki.gg is whitelisted.

[celest halo]

Yeah I always forget it is

Specially when discord is not, have had a few links auto deleted when linking to a message in same channel 🤣

[rain widget]

no one on my server can open obelisk?

[jade magnet]

i have concluded that raising the maximum level is impossible.

[waxen dock]

Thanks for doing that!

[stuck tinsel]

I still don't know why my server don't run mods....
start ArkAscendedServer.exe "TheIsland_WP?listen?SessionName=test?Port=7782?QueryPort=27017 -mods=928793"

[barren swan]

:) let me know if you have some issue with the setup

[urban quail]

is it true that dinos are being deleted for being too high of XP value, not even max level just over XP values. I did a test on my unoff and set the xp to 2,000,000,000 for level 5 and leveled up and then relaunched the server and every dino over even 800,000,000 was removed

[stuck tinsel]

i find it, seems to be a pb with " 😉

[zealous scarab]

When should you buy a bird?

[urban quail]

when you are not broke?

[zealous scarab]

When it's going cheep

[urban quail]

still cant buy it unless you are unofficially not broke.

[zealous scarab]

true

[stray solstice]

Anyone know how to change the player stat multiplier in nitrado?

[tardy pine]

does anyone have insight on the settings for a small tribe server? like what multipliers they run

[inner adder]

Oh I see. I don’t have steam or epic games installed on the system

[celest halo]

The cert file should of been installed with Windows on a win10 but some people have had the issue of there server not showing up and after installing them it shows

[rain widget]

how do i force join a tribe

[mellow zodiac]

whats the line to increase spawn rate of dinos?

[tawny elbow]

same as ASE, check the wiki on Server Configuration

[lime kiln]

does anyone have the game ini files for official settings i cant seem to get mine right

[rain widget]

did you ever find a solution to this @river tinsel

[vagrant ledge]

cheat forcejointribe while looking at anything from that tribe doesnt work for you?

[lime kiln]

cheat forceplayerjointargettribe i believe and you have to be looking at the tribe you want to join

[river tinsel]

Doesn't work at all

[rain widget]

Been trying to force join on someone’s raft and am not getting no results

[river tinsel]

Doesn't work either

[lime kiln]

in the asa command box it usually has the cheat come up as you start typing it it may have changed

[stable inlet]

new to ark. 4 buddies and i want to join pvp with less people. any recommendations from main menu? its alot for a first timer

[lime kiln]

offical or unoffial ?

[stable inlet]

whats the difference?

[rain widget]

Has this been tested? It’s not working for me I see the command come up but doesn’t work idk if it’s my settings or the command is broken

[lime kiln]

official is the servers hosted by WC at the monent they are laggy and buggy unofficial is the servers hosted by other players they usually have boosted rates to make things quicker and are less buggy and laggy

[stable inlet]

unofficial seems like the way then?

[lime kiln]

ive used it recently try type cheat gmsummon and see if it prompts you

[stable inlet]

just join any of them? should i look for specific ones?

[rain widget]

i typed this command what does it do

[lime kiln]

let me give it to you this way aside from the laggy mess official is right now it takes 12 irl days to raise a dino called a giga its a heavy hitting pvp dino 3 days to hatch the egg youll find a lot of unofficals will have this drastically reduced

[lime kiln]

let me show you one sec

[stable inlet]

jump in anyone of the servers???

[rain widget]

Thank you I have a bunch of people who got kicked from tribes I gotta get this fixed

[lime kiln]

pretty much you can test see if you like it and move server if you dont

[boreal frost]

How do you change the speed of a egg hatching? I went to config Files on my Nitrado server added the Egg hatch speed multiplier and set it to 50 as a test and yet nothing changes anyone know how to fix it?

[final eagle]

I wonder when unofficial will be getting 25.61 server patch

[rain temple]

If it's anything like it was in the past. The change will affect future eggs. Not ones that are already on the ground

[boreal frost]

Yea I read that’s so I got two dodo and when I threw out the egg it stayed the same as if it was at 1 times hatching speed

[thick kernel]

Second unofficial server I’ve been playing on and it’s just disappeared.

Can I save my Dino from under the map with admin commands?

[white tartan]

anyone know how to enable admin commands on a private dedicated server, i set the password in my bat file i tried using the ingame console aswell as the the ui console and no changes, i want to do a dino wipe, unless somone knows how to perform a dino wipe if i take the server down and put it back up

[dark crypt]

cheatsenable "pw"

enablecheats i meant and then pw in the console

[vagrant ledge]

Check in gus what your adminpass is, depending on when in the line of the bat file you put it it prob is a bit longer. You need to put adminpass at the end of the line

[white tartan]

@dark crypt cheers for somereason cheats anable worked 🤔

[white tartan]

yeah my gus is happy and matching my bat file

[vagrant ledge]

aight good, had that problem myself,why I asked 😄

[white tartan]

lmao... iv ran servers before just not had to use admin cmds on a server, my spawns are messed up and i need pearls and only way i can get them is beavers and well, i have none spawning, and only rates iv changed is harvest rates and tame rates, shouldnt effect dinos stuff

[vagrant ledge]

yeah there are alot of problems with spawn in general, only seen a handfull of beavers. But there are some pearl spawns tho up in the snow on ground lvl

[white tartan]

was up that way earlier and couldnt find any 😅

[scenic orchid]

new unofficial server binaries finally available

[slate ravine]

yeah and nitrado didn't pull them on a restart. grrrrrrr

[inner adder]

does my server need to have steam installed for it to show up on the server list?

[summer venture]

can confirm snow pearls in the north. a very long journey with an Argi later.......

[slate ravine]

so how long after it gets released to unofficial till you can actually download it? Nitrado isn't updating despite it showing released 21 minutes ago

[scarlet lichen]

what settings are you guys playing on and how many frames? i'm playing with high settings w/ clouds removed and I hover between 25-50fps

[eternal moss]

Is there a way to wight list admins on my server? I know on ase servers you can but I can't find it's spot on asa

As well after enabling cheats do I need to type cheat before every command or is there a way to not need to use cheat before every command?

[scenic orchid]

I was just able to pull it, but I am not using Nitrado.

[slate ravine]

yeah starting up the server on nitrado is supposed to pull but it isn't . kind of fustrating

[torpid spear]

@eternal moss I’ve been looking for the same thing

[brittle pewter]

Hi im having trouble enabling cheats in my server. i do not have an admin password in the server but enable cheats is not working

[half ginkgo]

you trying to do it on nitrado or dedicated server. on a dedicated server you will go to your configs where your game.ini and gus.ini are and find AllowedCheaterSteamIDs.txt if that aint in there just add it in then paste whoevers steamid you want to be admin on your server

[inner adder]

How many cores should a single server have?

[merry root]

1 per server. But if you only host one you can do -UseAllAvailableCores

[inner adder]

I see. I’m going to eventually host a cluster with my buddies and I want to know what specs I should look at for (hopefully) all 12 maps

[white tartan]

high with cloud and avg 30 (im happy with 30)

[merry root]

Depending on players and how many is joining a entry level cpu would be a Ryzen 9 3900x. If youre going a bigger route Ryzen 9 7950X is a good option.

[half ginkgo]

medium with clouds fog grass removed 90- 120 fps

[brittle pewter]

--nobody?-- Hi im having trouble enabling cheats in my server. i do not have an admin password in the server but enable cheats is not working

[inner adder]

Would intel Xeon be a good direction to go?

[merry root]

Its a decent option. I prefer the Ryzens as they are more bang for the buck. But its your money at the end of the day sir 🙂

[scarlet lichen]

where would this setting go? in the .bat file just like other flags?

[merry root]

Yes.

[summer dust]

Whats with the unoficial servers not updating to the 25.61 version? 99% of the unoficial servers are still in the 25.55 version

[celest halo]

it just got released to them 50min ago, so most have not shutdown to update

[inner adder]

if I went the ryzen route, would Epycs be good to look at, or are they not compatible, due to being x86?

[river tinsel]

Got the lastest version and trust me stay back

[eternal moss]

It's on notrodo unfortunately, so I just add the alloedcheatersteamid.tex then the id in the ini file?

0x00007ffd30e4142c VCRUNTIME140.dll!UnknownFunction []

[merry root]

They should be comparable yes. End of day its about core count and how much GHz you can pump out.

Also keep in mind each server is running 10-15 gb of ram. And Ryzen likes good speed ram.

[queen marten]

Where do I go to use the killallwilddinos command?

[merry root]

~ to open the console and type "cheat destroywilddinos"

[torpid spear]

I’m not 100% but you probably need an admin pass to use cheats

[urban quail]

why does uploading then downloading cause the XP gain to max?

[stray axle]

how do i add auto snapping off for fence foundation in the ini files? or is there a mod that adds an snapping off toggle for all structures like: walls, fence foundation, foundations and ceilings?

[fiery wadi]

Anyone know how to prevent tames from vanishing into thin air when restarting the server? I have most of mine in cryopods but I'd like to change to a different cryopod mod that is actually being updated but restarting with my dinos out seems like a bad idea

[final eagle]

Anyone got mutton and prime fish stacking as yet? looks like

ConfigOverrideItemMaxQuantity=(ItemClassString="PrimalItemConsumable_RawMutton_C",Quantity=(MaxItemQuantity=1000.0, bIgnoreMultiplier=true)

may be borked

[stuck tinsel]

RawMutton cant be forcestack ?

we have same problem @final eagle x)

[celest halo]

there gone, that was a bug with the cryo pod mods, any dino that was ever in one will vanish on server restart

[final eagle]

I think when you cryopod them they get classes from cryopod which breaks them when you remove the mod (happened to me early in my dedi server)

[final eagle]

I see glad I'm not alone, I'm testing different things to see I'm wondering if rawmutton has a different tag now I know there were issues with them in ASE

[fiery wadi]

So is there nothing I can do to save them? Maybe upload them to the ark data?

[stuck tinsel]

have you tested RawMeat_Mutton_C already ?

[final eagle]

Haven't tried that, it does take them off server so maybe? but I am not sure

[final eagle]

I haven't I didn't know thats a thing

[stuck tinsel]

okay will test

[final eagle]

Let me know the outcome 🙂

[blazing stump]

where is the server ini located?

[final eagle]

Do you mean the GSU.ini and Game.ini?

[blazing stump]

i pasted stuff in the game.ini but it did not change anything

[final eagle]

Depends on if it belongs in game.ini or gameusersettings.ini

[blazing stump]

stuff like BabyMatureSpeedMultiplier

[final eagle]

What did you set it to?

[blazing stump]

10

[final eagle]

Hmm about the same for me I believe mine is working (would need to login to confirm.)

[blazing stump]

hmmm weird

is it the one in ..\ShooterGame\Saved\Config\WindwosServer or is it somewhere else

[plucky copper]

ive been having ALOT of issues with cryo mods does anyone have a trusted one

[low stag]

None of them are 100% bug free yet as far as I know. There are a couple that are quite close though, I guess.

[barren swan]

Yes, did you place [/script/shootergame.shootergamemode] at the top of the file?

[blazing stump]

yea it doesnt seem to be working

ok it is now, weird

[barren swan]

Hmm are you editing it while the server is stopped or not? I've had some weird issues if i modify the files while running and then restart

[blazing stump]

ok so i got it working, now what setting makes it so that dinos spawn in increments of 5 up to 150

[low stag]

We also had that. Definitely stop the server first. Lol

[blazing stump]

now one last thing

[stuck tinsel]

not working with rawmeat_mutton

[blazing stump]

how do i show floating damage text

[barren swan]

ShowFloatingDamageText=True under ServerSettings in GameUserSettings.ini

[fiery wadi]

Alright so the "uploading the dinos to ark data" did not stop them from despawning after I downloaded them again. Any tips on how I could possibly save all my dinos in cryopods rn?

[final eagle]

No idea I removed the mod and wiped my hands clean of it

[fiery wadi]

I am trying another idea

[urban quail]

downloading dinos has 2 problems right now

1. they gain max xp (these are bugged dinos and will vanish on reboot)
2. any downloaded dino that had interacted with a mod that did an update is considered a bugged creature and will vanish on reboot.

to avoid this dont level up your doinos past lvl 300
and you will want to make sure they are not brought from a singleplayer or another server as this also buggs them (doesnt give the server the correct dino id to reload them)

also most cryopods remove the correct dino ID and server will remove them

[fiery wadi]

So you're saying only dinos that once were in a cryopod are gonna be gone. Dinos that are just tamed and never saw a cryopod will be fine even if the mod is on the server?

[urban quail]

yes and if they have never been downloaded or uploaded

[fiery wadi]

I think I figured out a way to save all your dinos

1. "cheat GetEgg 0" on your dino
2. "cheat HatchEgg" on the egg
3. "cheat SetBabyAge 1" on the baby

The baby has the same stats, it's basically a clone, but it has never seen a cryopod. I just tested it on 4 brontos and after 2 server restarts they are still here

[barren flint]

So will small tribes on launch be Xbox/PlayStation and windows or no?

[urban quail]

this wont work for gestation i rekon

[fiery wadi]

It might. Cause cheats can usually give you any egg

[fluid basin]

New to Unofficial (rocket glitch has ruined official pvp for me) are there any big ASA pvp unofficial servers that'll get long term support and are very active??

[pure plover]

anyone else having issues with self-hosted servers after the latest server update? I changed nothing with my network config but I can't see my server in game and it also isn't joinable with console commands after updating to 25.61

[frigid vine]

We installed few minutes ago the 25.61 ... same high RAM usage 😕 Still above 14GB on mostly empty map
Someone wrote something of 7GB RAM usage after this update?

[celest halo]

im sitting at 10.5GB on an empty map, with no user on it

[frigid vine]

we have 5 active tribes (7 players) but we all started 2 days ago. Yes, we added for benchmarks huger bases (2) but thats it. Savegame-File is about 105MB.

We start with 14,4GB over the day 16,6GB
Thats just to much... imagine u wanna host a cluster so most of maps will take around 20-22GB RAM, huge maps like Ragna, Gen2, Fjordur takes up to 28-30GB.

So that means you need a dedicated server with over 384/512 GB memory.... jesus...

[frigid vine]

We never had 10,5GB. Also if i rent the server we started with 13,8GB (no mods, mostly offi settings)

[abstract galleon]

any good unoffical servers with good pop on ASA? I dont like offical anymore lol

[frigid vine]

#1110925695900713072 maybe?

[abstract galleon]

ah good point

[barren swan]

I get 11.4GB on an empty map, but I likely have some overhead since I'm running the windows binaries on linux

CONTAINER ID   NAME          CPU %     MEM USAGE / LIMIT
47d70dc24ceb   asa_server2   38.51%    11.37GiB / 16GiB

[frigid vine]

You're using the repo (with the docker image) from Acekorneya?

[barren swan]

Nah i'm running my own, github.com/azixus/ARK_Ascended_Docker but it's likely similar

[frigid vine]

Ah yeah. Saw that repo too.
Is it possible to provide a savegame?

[barren swan]

Yeah you just have to start the container, copy the saves into ./ShooterGame/Saved/SavedArks and then start the server. (or copy the saves, start the container, it's the same)

[scarlet lichen]

who's running the server on ssd and who's on hdd still?

[white tartan]

ok my server wont update via steam cmd, im still on 25.41, anyone got any insight ?

[white tartan]

mines running on a m.2 ssd

[scarlet lichen]

must be niiiice

[frigid vine]

sounds good. I'll give it a chance until WC release the binaries.

[barren swan]

Aight, dm me if you encounter any issue

[white tartan]

i dont think running it on a ssd or hdd will make much diffrence tbf, iv had some run on hdds and ssds and not noticed any diffrence, not sure how ase will run on a hdd though

[barren swan]

I was running on ramdisk for ase :D

[scarlet lichen]

in my vm settings, I can represent the 48x virtual cores i've given my VM in a number of ways. the changes make it show up as 2x cores or 48x cores on the server console. does anybody know which settings are optimal for the server? vmware esxi 6.5 vm settings

[fickle dew]

What OS does everyone run for their servers here? anyone sucess with windows server 2022?

[scarlet lichen]

windows 10 pro vm here

[rain temple]

Windows server 2022 and haven't had any problems

[fickle dew]

really? any chance we could call and compare?

[barren swan]

In windows server you need to install Epic's certificates

[rain temple]

I don't remember doing that

[scarlet lichen]

even on my windows 10 vm I needed the epic cersts

[fickle dew]

Where do I get the certs?

[barren swan]

Huh weird, you get them here: https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Dedicated_server_setup#Windows_Server_editions_and_crossplay_with_Epic_players

[lean nimbus]

What's the command to join through IP?

[rain temple]

What did you need the certs for? I don't have any epic players on my server

[barren swan]

To display your server in the server list, asa uses the epic online services

[rain temple]

It's in the server list for me on steam.

[fickle dew]

Hold up - sorry for confusion im on survival ascended

[rain temple]

I am too

[fiery wadi]

Alright so I can confirm, if you are experiencing dinos disappearing after you put them in cryopods (i.e. if you had one of the first cryo mods and think your dinos are doomed) you can save them IF you are admin on the server. You have to create an egg of the dino you want to save via the "cheat GetEgg 0" command. Then you have to hatch said egg (either naturally or via "cheat HatchEgg"). Lastly you can let it grow up or use "cheat SetBabyAge 1". Never even look at them with a cryopod. Throw them all away. Kill the dinos you made the egg from. Just keep that new born dino. It will have the same stats as the your original dino, just not leveled up. And I have restarted my server like 3 times and removed the cryo mod and they are still here with me. Hope this can help someone

[barren swan]

Weird, maybe you had the certificates by default in the certificate store. Usually on some windows servers you need to manually add some CA certificates. Maybe it's different on server 2022

[rain temple]

Probably. I never messed with the certs, but I did have steam installed pre-DRM removal

[celest halo]

ASA also uses EOS network instead of steams like ASE did

[jagged apex]

can you increase structure limit on a raft in ASA? my pirate ship needs floors!
told to ask here!

[random sorrel]

what is the comand for put exp point for flyers ? in gameuserseting

[bronze bronze]

doesn't work if you're talking about move speed

[random sorrel]

yes dude , but are servers with this workly fine

[sturdy kiln]

So how does one go about enforcing a ban in asa?

[nimble bramble]

Sooon?

[agile stone]

Any other private server owners suddenly getting unhandled exception errors and server crashing?

[scarlet lichen]

server keeps running but getting more client side crashes

[river tinsel]

Yes

[agile stone]

I thought as much, we're having issues as well, just random lag spikes followed by a full on crash, console disappears.

[river tinsel]

Since the last update, I had to stop all of them

[river tinsel]

Exactly the same here...

[pure plover]

My server just wont show up in the server list when searched for anymore and only allowing connection via commandline and wont allow a connection with a password set

[agile stone]

Running any mods?

[river tinsel]

Yes

[agile stone]

I think we're running the recommended dino mods, meat spoiler, and pelori's (sp?) Cryopods and the Big Boxes

[river tinsel]

It's not related to mod, it's related to the optimisation issue in the latest patch

[agile stone]

Yeah I was thinking the same so we're holding off to see if they say anything lol.

[river tinsel]

I had to stop my 3 servers for now

[torpid spear]

So what your saying is don’t update your server

[pure plover]

if you're still on 25.55 stay on it for now imo

[whole stratus]

And f not

[river tinsel]

Yes it's better to stay to 55

[bronze bronze]

shotgun fixes go brrrr

[agile stone]

Be nice if there was a way to roll it back lol

[torpid spear]

Sounds good. It’s a good thing I was at work when that dropped, otherwise I would have updated

[pure plover]

there is but its very tedious

[celest halo]

only issue i have is full screen window when not set to native res, when using the select wheel on an item locks the mouse to the res you set in game, making it so you cant select half the stuff on the wheel

[whole stratus]

Hey is there anything I can do so I can build anywhere on my server? There's some spots i'd like to build which I just can't.

[deep compass]

anyone..?

[pure plover]

are you running 25.61?

[deep compass]

Just noticed there was an update,, gonna try and update it.

[glossy fern]

Don't update your server atm.

[deep compass]

oh?

[glossy fern]

Yeah. See above. There's all sorts of crash issues with the current update/patch.

[deep compass]

dang. Well, maybe i'll be lucky and be able to join.. since i couldn't join at all before and was crashing out of the game whenever i tried joining my server almost.

[bitter gull]

Anyone have any line of code for the ini files to enable Admin Command Logging?

[vagrant ledge]

Just want to point out the update doesnt cause problems to everyone, my server is working just fine with the new update

[deep compass]

I've had my server since a day or two after launch and i can't get it to let me/anyone in.

[coarse tulip]

What is a good RCON client to use for dedicated?

[vagrant ledge]

Maybe you could go through this channel and find some answer, I myself dont really know what to do but I bet you can find it somewhere. I know a lot of people have had similar issues

[celest halo]

AdminLogging=True

[pure plover]

Anyone know if the command to join a server with a password has changed? Open <ip>:<port>?<password> doesnt seem to work I keep getting an empty password field error

[deep compass]

I'm not even sure what to search. Since the server is running and we can get in.. create our characters.. but joining back in? Doesn't happen. Also, it's odd but im pretty sure - even when people aren't on the server.. there is suppose to be some cpu usage for a server.. but there's none.

[bitter gull]

and that goes in the game ini, or Usersettings?

[celest halo]

gus

[bitter gull]

thx

[vagrant ledge]

Okey yeah that sounds really odd

[deep compass]

but according to support (for my server host) it's 'with my isp' 💀

[celest halo]

https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Server_configuration#[ServerSettings] has all of gus settings and a check mark for what is known to work with ASA

[bitter gull]

thx a ton

[inner adder]

is there a working gus.ini file out there?

[deep compass]

yeah. memory is in the 10k mb range. but cpu? randomly spikes to 88 percent then drops back to 0. its really strange.

[vagrant ledge]

yeah that has been happening to my server to, not really 88% but jumping from 10-25% and I get a Slow frame rate detected, and that started maybe 2-3 updates ago

[celest halo]

i been getting alot of Slow frame rate detected with todays update

[deep compass]

It's been like this since the start. I'm not sure whats up with this server :/
i just wish it'd let me + my friends in so i can play with my friends.

For longer than however long it takes to make a character, go through Helena and get to the blinding light screen.

[vagrant ledge]

understandable I know the struggle from ASE but ASA has been a pretty smooth ride for me so far, wish I could help more Im just as lost haha

[deep compass]

The weird thing is here as well - i can join all servers except nitrado ones. They're the only ones giving me a hassle.

[vagrant ledge]

yeah I havnt touched any other server so far

Are you in EU or US?

[deep compass]

US

[vagrant ledge]

Ahh okey Im in EU and was going to say that you were more than welcome to join my server if you dont get yours to work 🙂

[deep compass]

Aw, thats very polite of you to offer! ^^

[merry root]

If you know your server ip and port you can try "open ServerIp:Port" in the ~ console

[uneven field]

Can someone explain the whole nitrado is affecting unofficial clusters to me

[merry root]

Clusters arent active yet so its currently unknown.

[kindred dragon]

i bought a server for me n my friends to play on n now its only me that plays, im a clown smh

[deep compass]

in game? don't you have to be in a game to access that though?

[merry root]

No, at the loading screen press the ~ button and then type "Open ServerIp:Port"

[deep compass]

Oh, huh. I didn't know that. I'll try that!

[white tartan]

im getting a eos sdk could not be found after updating my server, anyone know a fix ?

[deep compass]

Didn't do anything ?

[merry root]

Very weird. Maybe try to reboot the server on Nitrado's side. (Im not a fan of Nitrado for this reason) lots of issues.

[white tartan]

its a private dedicated server, i should have mentioned that 😅

[wicked geyser]

If someone has a tame stuck in the mesh, how do you get it out for them as an admin?

[jagged apex]

can you increase structure limit on a raft in ASA? my pirate ship needs floors!

[deep compass]

I never had this many issues. my A:SE server was great. I don't know if a reboot will do much help. I've rebooted that dang server 100 times i think by this point 😭

[kindred dragon]

ghost

[barren swan]

try to rerun steamcmd to verify and download the missing files

[harsh forge]

So the recomendation is to not update servers right now?

[white tartan]

when i launch from bat it verifys and updates if needed, before launching, its wanting to run now on the latest but eos is missing still, i uninstalled and reinstalled, i downloaded a possible fix and rebooted the pc and nothing

[white tartan]

beginning to wish i hadnt 😅

[harsh forge]

I've been taking backups of the entire game server before updates lately.. just in case lol

[whole reef]

does anyone know the code to buff maturating speeds? i thought i did it right but this baby is maturing painfully slow

[frigid vine]

Just want to say thank you! Easy 2 use and a nice workaround aslong Wildcard gives ZERO information about Linux Hosting.

[frail crown]

I really wish they would just release the linux files.

[celest halo]

same

[frigid vine]

I would be Happy If they Just can react on the Community and say when or if Linux Hosting is one day possible

[wise kindle]

Anyone having issues disabling engrams or changing engram learning levels in ASA?

[frail crown]

My husband doesn't want to set things up twice, and hates windows as it is, so he won't set it up till they give the linux files. xD

[white tartan]

i wish i had thought of that, just realised iv also lost my game ini and save when i did a reinstall

[whole pewter]

60gb ram usage on unofficial the Island map without mods? Lol . 10-20 players (max70)

[agile stone]

@river tinsel We suspect this is a mod issue, we stripped all the mods out and now its stable.

[remote quail]

DO NOT get the TG stacking mod! it corrupted all the storage containers in my game and made game unplayable!!!!

[agile stone]

We're systematically readding them atm, we'll let ya know if we find one

[river tinsel]

I'm only using the ARK addition mod

Only 4 dinos

[agile stone]

We're using Additions Ascended: Xiphactinus, Deinosuchus, and Deinotherium as well as Meat Spoiler, Super Spyglass, Cryopods, Big Storage Box

[river tinsel]

No matter what, it happened with the latest version. The game has to work with all the mods cause the mods were working before this version

[lost kayak]

how do you extend tether distance, 180 seems to be the max?

[hidden notch]

my mods are all working on version 25.55

[river tinsel]

The problem is that if you remove those mods, your players won't have their dinos anymore

[agile stone]

Yeah, we've got a test server up

[river tinsel]

I use both deino creatures

[river tinsel]

Yes but there might be an issue in. 61

It happened on official servers too without any mod

[hidden notch]

yeah your right their thats why im staying on this version for now

[agile stone]

We're running 25.61 as well, so far with the spyglass mod removed its stable, Won't know for sure for at least 10 mins tho

[river tinsel]

I think it's an action in game that causing the crash, that means it can happen in 5 min or 2 hours

It happened before in ARK Se. I'm gonna sleep and see if there will be an update when I will wake up

[floral latch]

Anyone know of any nursery/hatchery mods from the old s+ mod in this game

[scarlet lichen]

weird, works for me

[nimble talon]

Can you enable FLyer Carry? No matter what I do it's set to false

[wooden nest]

How do you find the ID of a mod?

[agile stone]

We are pretty sure it's the super spyglass for us Mod ID: 928988

[tardy pine]

ANyone know a way to pull the full username from someone on their server? Ive got someone with a name that is long and after 16 characters it just ads 3 dots like this longcharacternam...

[jagged apex]

can you increase structure limit on a raft in ASA? my pirate ship needs floors!

[plain cove]

I have a Nitrado Unofficial server set up and just a few minutes ago I restarted the server and it started crashing. The server still keeps restarting automatically and generates a crash log each time.
Perhaps the save data is corrupted, is there a solution to this?

[tardy pine]

restore to a backup if they are available

[stark idol]

Anyone else having the issue where crafted turrets are shown as plant sepcies x ?

[fiery pewter]

Are the unofficial servers just crashing today? ;'(

[tardy pine]

Mine has been rock solid. Self hosted though, not nitrado trash

[stark idol]

same

[fiery pewter]

how o;

[tardy pine]

plenty of guides on how to set up an ark server on an old machine. follow an SE server guide but change the app id to the Ascended one (2430930)

[inner adder]

how do i do self host mods?

[tardy pine]

I havent messed with mods in ASA

[hollow perch]

is there a way to fix lost/timeout connection to host i’ve had a lot of issues with getting it fixed

[jagged apex]

can you increase structure limit on a raft in ASA? my pirate ship needs floors!

[sturdy kiln]

For us that's usually meant a tribe got corrupted and has to be deleted

[junior haven]

Is the rocket launcher bug still in the game ?

[lavish stone]

anyone knows a fix for the invisible baby dinos when relogging? ( or a setting)

[celest halo]

config options are listed here https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Server_configuration

[uncut shale]

Had the server I was playing on crash and we all got removed from our tribe because of it and that tribe can’t even be force joined 😫

[bronze bronze]

ahh yes, the tribe corruption issue

[uncut shale]

It’s the worst, I’m gonna have to have all my shit respawned in and wiped then rebuild and ugh

[bronze bronze]

if memory serves... hoster can delete said tribe file, have tribe remade, admin joins tribe and adds everything to that tribe

[sullen herald]

really wondering if anyone can help or has the same issue. we are renting a private server from nitrado and are having issues with breeding. every offspring is falling through map after picking with flyer. Tames that have been breed and tested are as follows (Megatherioum, Beezlebuf, Sabertooth).

[uncut shale]

How do you delete the tribe file though? Just since it’s completely inaccessible right now

[bronze bronze]

ShooterGame\Saved\SavedArks\TheIsland_WP and then find the tribe ID and delete the file

[lean anvil]

I had that issue. Delete the main tribe file and replace it with the .bak version should fix the crash since backup file

my tribe file came out at like 422kb when teh backup file was like 7kb lmao so I noticed instantly it got corrupted somewhere along the line

[severe vault]

Hey y’all any tips with mods? I can’t get the managarmr mod to work on my server

[glossy kraken]

does anyone know why after updating the ark server console shows that its off screen as a white box?

[uncut shale]

I’ll see what I can do to have someone work on that, thank you guys for the help!!

[celest halo]

whats the over under on how long we have to wait for this patch to hit public

[bronze bronze]

good to know thats how to spot that

[tight ocean]

LF some someone for unofficial x5 pvp / french / english /spanish

[bronze bronze]

wonder how long this update will take to come out

[slender shale]

my dedi is still on 25.55.. has it updated any since then?

[lyric python]

Haven’t experienced this (yet), but do you just rename the bak to the original tribe file name?

[slender shale]

nvm it just got to 25.61.

[lean anvil]

Yeah

[celest halo]

same, we need a bot to make bets on when it will come to us lmao

[viral mantle]

Is there an ini code to change supply drop despawn time. They seem to be gone really quick and not even touched.

[slender shale]

yay new update. Hold E, cant move mouse to select anything. perfect.

[celest halo]

they released it

[tough glen]

Anyone else having a Nitrado issue where the server keep restarting over and over? Was working fine last night till about 4am est, and havn't been able to log on since

[dusk socket]

yep

[tough glen]

is Nitrado just down then?

[dusk socket]

seems to be mostly i just managed to get my server running though i recommend sending asupport ticket if your still boot looping could be a corrupt tribe file

[graceful escarp]

We had the problem too. We tried to save to a preivious save, but a mod corrupted our server and we had to wipe. Everyone was ok with it since all they wanted was to play, but you could try with a previous backup after Nitrado force stops your server

[topaz cradle]

... any way to find these corrupted tribes easier? I keep having to try every single tribe until it boots

I guess its always the large ass file, this is so annoying every patch

[flat otter]

is there any saving grace found the server i play on keeps crashing after 5 minutes of being up, hes gone through tribes and cleared currupted files and it keeps on happening everytime, and he doesn't get a crash report because it doesn't happen fast enough after the server comes up

[bronze bronze]

look for the large ass tribe file everytime it will be that one

[topaz cradle]

Anyway to figure out who owned the tribe based on tribe id?

I think they only lose the tribe but not the structures correct? Can prolly just force claim the structures

[bronze bronze]

if you have backups, replace just that tribes with a backup and then ingame cheat GetTribeIdPlayerList xxxxx will tell you who it belongs to so you can explaiin

or they can remake said tribe and you can claim the structures by joining thier tribe yeh, or there is a admin command to for it i think

[jagged apex]

I can’t find anything for raft structure limit

[mental jewel]

Wasn’t that the same as the platform saddle multiplier

[jagged apex]

How do I get my GameUserSettings for a single player save?

[rich crescent]

I can open loot crates at any level in my server. What is the setting to fix that?

[half ginkgo]

are you admin?

[rich crescent]

no

[mint crest]

Hi! I am trying to find good settings for breeding and raising babies for the medium/large dino's in the game. I am think we are wanting around a x50 maturation speed, how would I get that with a single 100% imprint bonus?

This is what I have currently.

BabyImprintingStatScaleMultiplier=1.2
BabyCuddleIntervalMultiplier=0.03
BabyCuddleGracePeriodMultiplier=1
BabyCuddleLoseImprintQualitySpeedMultiplier=0.1
MatingIntervalMultiplier=0.1
MatingIntervalMultiplier=1
EggHatchSpeedMultiplier=5
BabyMatureSpeedMultiplier=20
BabyFoodConsumptionSpeedMultiplier=1```

[hazy topaz]

Anyone know how to get rid of that stupid barrier thing on 2 player

[slate nexus]

Theres a setting you should be able to blast sky high

[olive sleet]

You can turn up the tether distance past the max slider limits by typing, but its there so your PC doesn't have to act as a full Dedicated whilst palying at the same time

[floral latch]

me just sitting her waiting for nursery and hatchery

[bronze bronze]

jesus its crashy since the past two patches lol

[patent kernel]

anyone tryna join my non ded server im lonely. I just started it hoping to find people.

[hard finch]

Does anyone know if ORP in ASA turns off alliances still?

[inner adder]

Are clusters possible yet?

[hard finch]

why would you need a cluster if there is only one map out?

[inner adder]

I guess I should say ask this when SE releases. But are they possible regardless?

[bronze bronze]

not atm no

[inner adder]

Damn. Do you think they will be when SE releases?

[bronze bronze]

yeah

yo guys its just my sever or do u have the same issue , sometimes the gen turned off, or i cant craft stuff in the workbench , and i need to pick it up and replace to work , maybe u can help , (my server only has the cryo mod)

[burnt cave]

Any word on when WC will implement ORP? The settings are there, but doesn't appear to work yet.

[copper igloo]

My ASE dedicated server will not update. I've validated and such. It is on version 25.64, and the game is on 25.66. How can I update the server?

[bronze bronze]

They haven't pushed the server update yet so 64 is the latest

[dusk socket]

Server was running fine before the latest update and now it's crashing like crazy XD wtf wildcard what do!

[smoky valley]

are kangeroos not working right now for anyone?

i swear none are spawning anywhere

[green moth]

any one know the cords for deep sea crates

[glad tree]

does anyone have issues connecting to any type of server but a singleplayer or non dedi. i have a buddy who has his game freeze right after seeing the character customization screen

[granite barn]

anyone know why the info api for ark doesn't show the public buildid? It shows the others, but public isn't listed (Ya know. the important one to the public lol)

[little finch]

lol same

[neon portal]

I had this bug using a cryo mod. U probably have the same mod lol

[little finch]

We’re in the same boat. Server build is burning my server every 30-45 minutes.

[versed granite]

All servers got a massive rollback?
Just logged on, and back to where I was yesterday at noon.
Gone everything we did in the evening

[bronze bronze]

take it up with the one running the unofficial then lol

[versed granite]

Just asking if people have similar issues, the one running is sleeping.
Dont need to react like that on a serious question.

[brazen glen]

any1 know what ports i need to open to start my own server?

[red copper]

anyone know when we can level flyer speed?

[weak egret]

The unofficial server I am in is having issues with mod engrams not being able to get learned. Anyone know of a solution?

[barren swan]

You only need a single port, by default its 7777

[fiery wadi]

Anyone else experiencing extreme lag when opening doors/gates after the update? Whenever I open a door/gate and the animation plays my FPS drops from 70 down to 23 and my GPU usage tanks to like 20%. Weird stuff.

[stuck dock]

Ye, for me too :/. drops from 60 to 15 FPS...

[hardy pelican]

yep

[visual crag]

Anyone know what the adjustment to dino movement speed was? I see it in patch notes but not clear what the adjustment is..

[wet goblet]

They go brrrr

[visual crag]

Oh yeah?! Faster now?

[wet goblet]

HELL YEAH dodos bro they go crazy

[wet goblet]

I ambush my enemies with dodos I hide in a bush with all of them and then when someone is ready to transfer income in bola them and hit them with my OP dodos

[visual crag]

Hmm interesting

[jolly sentinel]

is there a way to turn on death beacons? its so hard to find backpacks in grass

[wet goblet]

Just kidding I have no clue but it's fineeeee you are in unofficial it shouldn't affect you

[visual crag]

I see. Was hoping for a change to the dedicated server which fixed speeds!

[wet goblet]

YWAH man btw this is off topic I like ur pfp I had a book of the grumpy cat in 4th grade

[red copper]

i am in unofficial and i cant do my flyer movement speed... when they gonna fix it?

[visual crag]

Don’t think we know the answer to this yet 😦

[red copper]

dammit im so over flying slow lol

[elfin pulsar]

best way is to level weight to not slow down

[visual crag]

Agreed

[elfin pulsar]

grab a nice ptera theyre fast

[red copper]

yeah been doing that! also, i have seen ppl with really defined painting canvases... are ppl importing photos or something? lmfao

[elfin pulsar]

there was a program years ago for importing pics into ark paintings, idk if its still usable for asa

[atomic condor]

I'm playing single player is there a way to get the HarvestyieldMultiplier to go above 10? I tried setting it to the desired 25 but it keeps reverting back down to the 10 by default

[hidden notch]

ark paint converter is the program for importing pics into ark

[visual crag]

Thank you. It suits me well 🙂

[desert star]

Anybody else's server been crashing every 30-ish minutes or so since the update tonight?

[river tinsel]

same issue after last update

[red copper]

how do i add it to asa?

[hidden notch]

you have to put a paint stripe on what you want to override save it find the image you want load it into the paint converter and overwrite the saved file in your game files

[red copper]

paint a stripe on the canvas in game? or irl in paint?

[hidden notch]

on the canvas and save it to override

[potent badge]

Can I play with my Steam Friends when i get ASA on Xbox?
Because it says something about crossplay will come in the following year

[karmic gust]

is there a way to get more then the 100 max tames on a server?

[vagrant ledge]

Crossplay comes later yes

[vagrant ledge]

There is an ini setting for it but think its one of those that doesnt work atm

[north spade]

are clusters available on self hosted servers now?

[vagrant ledge]

Cluster will prob be a thing once the next map drops

[north spade]

but are they allowed on self hosted dedicated servers or is nitrado not letting it happen

[vagrant ledge]

Guess its allowed now that you can logg in anonomous

[idle wind]

Anyway of removing certain dinos from map on ascended? I've tried using the old code from evolved, but they're still spawning.

[north spade]

oh ok

[atomic lichen]

Hey all, was curious was crossplay between steam and console confirmed? Or was jt just windows and console?

[north spade]

ty

[vagrant ledge]

The old ase way works, it might just be an issue with surtain dinos, we have removed 2 dinos on my server

[atomic lichen]

Woops read earlier msgs. Question has already been answered, my bad.

[idle wind]

😕 hmmm, did you put the code within usersettings, or make file game.ini ?

[vagrant ledge]

Game.ini, you can grab one if you have an ase server or from sp, or just make a new one yourself

[idle wind]

Ok thanks, and it goes within the same folder as usersettings, right ?

[vagrant ledge]

Yes

[mighty topaz]

sup been scouring the net just to confirm that flyer spd lvling is a bug?

[vagrant ledge]

Yes dont think anyone has gotten it to work sadly

[mighty topaz]

tar mate

[idle wind]

It's a bug? I thought that was removed intentionally ?

[mighty topaz]

every time i ride a quetz I immediately die inside

[mighty topaz]

no the code in the ini that makes it lvlable is broken

[idle wind]

Oh ok!

[vagrant ledge]

Same with character speed but that one works atleast

There are alot of codes that just doesnt work right now

[bronze bronze]

We don't know if it is a bug or intended to not work

[north spade]

are self hosted servers allowed to get tips now?

or still no

[ionic haven]

Is anyone else having issues with xbox win10 loading sessions issues

I’m having it and I can’t join anything and idk wtf is going on

[celest halo]

Default value: 1.0
Value type: float
Higher value increases (from a percentage scale) max number of items place-able on saddles and rafts.```

[ocean bolt]

The crafting cost adjustment for Sweet Vegetable Cake and Extraordinary Kibble doesn't work. Has the class name been changed since ASE?

[bronze bronze]

You always were allowed to cover costs and a little over

[ashen escarp]

Any dates of when maps will come out?( roadmap ?)

[north spade]

What is a little over

[ivory yarrow]

The Application is intended and allowed for Personal Use only. Running the Application for Commercial Purposes is not allowed. Commercial Purposes includes any revenue generated by operation of the Application which exceeds Application operational costs or tipping.

[bronze bronze]

If it costs you $200 a month to run and you're getting 2000 a month thats not covering, if you're getting say 260 a month that is

Best way to do it, set a limit to your costs and thats it, with one server your costs aren't gonna be over $200 anyway so trying to say it's more will also get you into trouble

[arctic smelt]

I miss gportal already. Nitrado is price gouging since they have a monopoly on ASA right now. Running ASE, it is so much cheaper in gportal, not to mention far easier

[bronze bronze]

ASA servers have a higher resource requirement

but yes they are most likely price gouging a little

though considering most asa servers are using 10-15gb of ram now with low pop maybe not as much as expected

[arctic smelt]

id be a lot better with that if they had all the controls instead of only having 10% of all the settings available to us on the control panels

[lone birch]

Does ORP on Unofficial ASA just not work right now or something? Testing with my Wife and I, both in different tribes. She was offline for 15 whole minutes. I can still damage the structures. It doesn't even reduce the damage at all. I have ORP turned on with the default 800 second setting. I watched her log off. We game next to each other. We set a timer and waited for a total of 15 minutes, which is 900 seconds. Still no change

[arctic smelt]

not everyone has been running servers for years and know how to get or already have the settings and codes elsewhere

[young minnow]

Nitrado did make a post in their discord recently saying they heard this feedback and plan to add more controls onto the main general page soon.

[arctic smelt]

i saw that, just annoyed they charge a premium and then some for a fraction of the features

[lone birch]

I'm right there with you on this. I hadn't ran a server before, but now after a hundred YT videos and reading thousands upon thousands of messages in these discord channels.. I know about 20% of what I should LOL

[arctic smelt]

i have been running servers for 5 years on gportal, so i am lucky enough to know ho to move the code and have it to begin with

[young minnow]

Does not help either that some settings act differently than what they did in ASE

So not all guides are relevant sadly

from ASE that is

[bronze bronze]

some settings don't even work so 😛

[arctic smelt]

true

[lone birch]

All of the settings should be in the initial INI. Just set to their Default values. If we want to change them, we should have that option without having to become Sherlock Holmes.

[arctic smelt]

key word is should be

but they should also be in the gui on your web interface, which is one reason i love gportal, over 300+ settings easily available on the general settings page alone

[celest halo]

sadly most things now are only putting things in the .ini that are not default value

[merry root]

Theres legit zero way for them to enforce this. They dont know how much it cost to run a server etc. Electricity bill, Server machine costs, Internet, Water, Transportation for upgrades etc. Very wild that they attempted to even start this lmao. But end of the day people gonna do what they want.

[lone birch]

Shouldn't have to be a server administrator already just to adjust some basic settings in a game server. Should be available from the start. The lack of foresight in this area of development from Nitrado really has me wondering

[arctic smelt]

money first, always

[celest halo]

i dont even blame Nitrado for that i blame WC for not putting out any info on the settings for the server

[arctic smelt]

nitrado got a sweetheart deal that put players / users in the third row back

[celest halo]

they did put up $4mil to get that deal, it could of back fired on them

[ivory yarrow]

thats half the point. They probably dont care, as long as you arent selling the server for someone else

[odd palm]

If you want to Change MaxPlayers use -WinLiveMaxPlayers=5 attribute

[celest halo]

if they think your making alot of money all they have to do is sue you, then its your job to prove the cost of everything

[merry root]

How are they gonna find out who owns said server if its ran anonymously lmao. Easily can change ips. Have money goin in random payment methods. Im just saying theres 1000x ways to cheat the system. Thats prolly why they started the "DRM" to begin with.

[bronze bronze]

or they just cease and desist your host via the IP, theres plenty of ways to do it

[celest halo]

if they want to spend the money they can go after place thats collecting the money and find who owns the account

[serene wyvern]

So is orp working yet??

[celest halo]

all reports i have seen point to no

[serene wyvern]

Hmm lol I've been pretty lucky then

[bronze bronze]

its how blizzard did it to the big WOW private servers lol, they just went to the host and went "so look this ip is using our copyrighted ip material and we want it to stop"

[merry root]

Yet theres still 100s of huge WOW private servers still :p Im just saying theres always a way around it.

[bronze bronze]

because they don't care anymore and no not really, if they want to they will easily do it lol

this isn't a battle you win, this is a battle you lose at best with a closed host, at worst in a much more trouble

[celest halo]

there is always a way for them to get to you also, it just is it worth it to them to spend the money to do so

most of the time its not worth it to them, when they going to spend more then they would get back

[bronze bronze]

most likely do it to one or two to make a point, basically just follow the rules

[olive talon]

Can probably bring it back to setup help, this isn't really the chat for that.

[merry root]

Im trying to find this one post I read few days ago about them lifting part of the monitization. Ill reply back when I find it.

[olive talon]

Take it to dms instead pls

[bronze bronze]

and convo over 😛

[mellow glade]

Has anyone had success running a server on Linux in docker? A few guides thrown around, but i'm getting the error "TheIsland | error: exec: "start.sh": executable file not found in $PATH"

[tepid swallow]

Anyone know how to customize the server using the Steam ASA dedicated server from steam tools?
Specifically setting up PW and/or whitelist so randoms cannot join.

[nimble talon]

Doesn't that mean that your file isn't in the right folder or linked to the right directory?

[mellow glade]

Oh god knows. I've followed a number of different guides, but i'm going to try another one from the Ark forum and see

[nimble talon]

ServerPassword= in Gamusersettings.ini or in your start.bat There's no whitelist from what I recall

[potent badge]

when is the community crunch in PT time?

[ionic field]

Posted Server 2019 Fix in #building-screenshots enjoy!

[potent badge]

not anymore :d

[ionic field]

lol well i tried to help

[olive talon]

Don't misuse the media channels, they're not for anything other than stiff outlined in #bulletin-board-rules

[potent badge]

not allowed in ARK discord 😮

[ionic field]

got a place to share with unofficail community fixes to hosting ?

[olive talon]

You can type it out here or dm me a website link for information that I can pin here.

[ionic field]

thanks i like options . . .

[tepid swallow]

I added the password in serversettings in the gameuserfile.ini and now when I join there is just a black screen. The server console doesnt detect incoming IP despite me joining through the open IP through console

[jaunty salmon]

Yep, one I'm on crashing since .64

[nimble talon]

Mine is on .67 and stable

[nimble talon]

Definitely odd, I run mine in both the config and start, so I'm not sure which one it actually takes, besides knowing it did write the password into the config on my first start a long time ago

[tepid swallow]

This is with the steam tool version of the dedicated server?
I guess my other problem is that I can only join through command console since it doesn't show up in the browser for me

[nimble talon]

Sorry I've never heard of that, I only ever used SteamCMD

[barren plinth]

They need to fix the rockez launcher exploid....

[fiery wadi]

I noticed that this is because of lights. When I have about 10 lamps in my big house turned on it will lag severely when opening doors/gates. So it looks to be an issue with the lighting system. Maybe it calculates the lighting every frame when opening a door and when you have many lighting sources it becomes too much and the game starts lagging.

[nimble talon]

Anyone made a mod to get "pulling" like with SS and S+?

[fiery wadi]

I have heard that dedicated storage boxed do that nowadays. That every resource in them is as if it was in your inventory when you are near them. But I might have misunderstood. I have seen a mod that had cheap dedicated storage units out of wood. Idk if they would do the same

[lean anvil]

Theres a mod called K+ ASA that has some features like S+ but it has some stupid streamers logo on the hud

[violet dawn]

Same here, last update and crashing every 30-40 min

[jaunty salmon]

.67 didn't seem to help. Still getting crashes within 10-30m of startup. Seems like a few others were having issues late last night. We were running fine nonstop for 12+ prior to .64

[violet dawn]

Something went wrong with the update :(

[lean anvil]

anyone got any fixes for timeouts? My friend gets random timeouts literally in the worst situations (e.g. being inside the caves...)

[nimble talon]

Ah, maybe a mod? I only have 3 mods

[violet dawn]

Mine was fine with +10 mods yesterday, 13-14h nonstop and now It can't even last for 1h without crashing

[north jacinth]

The Tek Storage box has the ability to automatically provides ressources to workbench etc. So it could be an alternative if you need and it doesn't require any mods.

[violet dawn]

Anyone know if We can rollback some versions?

[willow crystal]

we have to restart our asa server 3 to 4 times a day because it fills up the ram of our server. if we start a map with 12 to 16gb, it will reach 60gb after a few hours. we have 128gb in total on our server and have to restart it at 70% because the saveworld also needs a lot of extra ram... what exactly is going on and how can we fix it? do others also have these problems?

[nimble talon]

Sweet, thanks

[junior vector]

Have they fixed flyer speed leveling yet?

[nimble talon]

Mine uses around 11GB just sitting here

[nimble talon]

What type of server are you using?

[minor sinew]

I'm guessing there are many of us with unofficial servers constantly on restart loop after the last update?

[karmic gust]

Windows-Server user here with 30 mods currently. the server is running since yesterday and currently sitting there with around 11GB Ram usage

[willow crystal]

only 11? how many players do you have? our server hase 150 in peak, most not under 50 users...

[nimble talon]

Haha damn, nah I got like 8 people

[karmic gust]

we are around 6 ppl

[nimble talon]

Damn, 128GB is fuckin 280 bucks lol

[swift whale]

My non dedicated server has dino levels such as 17, (uneven numbers) can i change that?

[willow crystal]

i think the more players the more memory utilisation. the problem is that the asa server does not delete files that are no longer needed from the ram but keeps them there. the result is that the ram keeps filling up like an empty bottle...

[slender shale]

Hoping someone can have some insight on this issue. ASA, dedicated running locally, 25.67. I play on the same rig that runs the server no issues running both and connecting. My son connects with public ip address from his pc on same LAN. My wife gets host connection timeout 90% of the time also coming from same network. I cant figure out why hers is having issues connecting when 2 other pcs on the network connect first try every time. 😭

[willow crystal]

is only our 2nd server, our 1st has 256gb, but it runs two large ase clusters

[nimble talon]

Definitely seems like an issue with Garbage collection then, could it be mod related?

[willow crystal]

we dont have mods atm

[nimble talon]

Is she connecting with the external IP too? If so, I think the question is why? They should be able to connect with your machines local IP, most residential routers don't take too kindly to nat loopback/redirect

[nimble talon]

Damn, guess I'll keep that in mind if I run a bigger server then, mine has been fairly stable at ~11 GB with 3mods, we also only have one big tribe, so I'd wonder if what some people were talking about earlier with big tribe files could be that cause

[celest halo]

someone else had that issue and said syncing the clock on the one what would time out fixed it

[slender shale]

I have a static ip, loopback isnt an issue, all ports are good. I've tried public ip, local ip, both with :port, both with +password. She sometimes connects on any of those tries having done nothing different other than try try again....

[willow crystal]

directly after the restart:
map 1 22gb
map2 12gb

both rise and rise and rise...

[nimble talon]

That's definitely wierd, you running Windows Server?

[slender shale]

Yep I tried that. sometimes works, sometimes does not... So there has to be some issue happening

[willow crystal]

yes, win server 22

[nimble talon]

Yea I can't say for sure, it's only me and my wife, so only two from the same network everyone else is remote

[scenic orchid]

My server also idles at around 12GB of memory consumed

[slender shale]

Also, her ping shows 0 in the server list most of the time when trying to connect.

[nimble talon]

Are you all able to join the same like, official server?

[nova hill]

Can you ping the local ip from her machine?

[slender shale]

yes she/everyone can join the same official and unofficials, we tested that.

[slender shale]

Yes just did itagain. 0% loss.

I just synced her clock also. connected first try... If I try to reconnect, it likely wont.

[celest halo]

mines sitting at just under 10GB for the server

[nimble talon]

imgur. com/a/sqjWu8E That's what mine looks like, the ram stays about the same I'm on server 2016

[willow crystal]

I don't understand it... do you have anything in the start parameters or something?

[nova hill]

My server has been running for 12 hours now with 2 mods and it's still at 10GB of memory, I had a few friends on it last night about 6 of them and it only hit 12GB at the most.

[humble thicket]

guys how can i join server like 1000x at pc btw steam

[alpine flame]

anyone still got the issue that some .arktribe files get corrupted and crashes the server? i mean yea i delete the corrupted files everytime when server crashes and it works again. but still no permanent fix?

[willow crystal]

sometimes, yes

[alpine flame]

this is very annoying when the server is very popular.

[nimble talon]

Could it be the logs? I would imagine with a ton of tribes the log would be written to constantly

[willow crystal]

hmmm but ram usage in gb just for logs?!

[nimble talon]

Haha, it's wildcard after all 😄

I would say the best course of action, since it seems to happen right away, is to change the startbat and remove flags one by one to see if one of them is causing it.

[willow crystal]

maybe we can try it, the output logs for rcon is important for us so idk if this is the best solution 😕

[nova hill]

You're sending your logs to RCON that is another task and ram usaged that it has to do to send it over. If you have a lot of people and tribes, yes it can eat up a lot of ram doing that over and over all the time

[nimble talon]

Never had such a big server, but what would be the reason for needing tribe logs?

[nova hill]

Keeping record of everything that happens with your tribes, if something goes wrong and you need to verify if something happened or happened to something

[willow crystal]

we read the ingame chat in discord, so no admin needs to be ingame everytime, and if someone act against our rules

[nimble talon]

Ah

[nova hill]

All of this -servergamelog -servergamelogincludetribelogs -ServerRCONOutputTribeLogs is going to take up CPU and RAM because of it having to write the logs to your drive and output it to RCON and RCON having to take that information and process it as well. Try taking all of the log stuff out and see if it helps any.

[nimble talon]

Would be nice if people just had good damn parents and we wouldn't need to police people like children lmao

[nova hill]

Truth!! tell me about it hehe

[willow crystal]

idk but do the rcon rly write it to the drive? if the rcon output is the issues i think it belongs all the data in the ram

our cpu has nothing rly to do... 12900k, 16 cores, on prime time its 30% usage only

[nimble talon]

If it['s only outputting to rcon then I would think it's the reason for the ram usage. Especially if it's trying to read all tribe logs before it sends it? I am not sure how it does the logic

[nova hill]

RCON will make a temp file to write the info to your drive yes but it might not be working right, this is wildcard and the server does have somewhat of a memory leak to begin with and that is actually A LOT of info being processed over RCON and in general with logs.

[celest halo]

i have all that and useing 10GB right now

[willow crystal]

our ase server has the rcon output too, but not the issues with the ram like the asa server... i thank you guys, we will try it without output

[nova hill]

Is this all ran on one server, your ASE and ASA or they all on a different machine?

[willow crystal]

different machines

[carmine ember]

Any update if ORP is working in ini.?

[sterile cairn]

I was playing a server unofficial but it keeps being down for like 8h sessions and rollbacks so much are all the servers hosted on ark servers or can the problem also be on the end of the hoster? I just need a stable server😂

[nimble talon]

Whats ORP?

[willow crystal]

offline raid protection...

[celest halo]

nope

[jaunty salmon]

All we have is a fee AA dinosaurs. Though that has me wondering...

[carmine ember]

Damn Thxs
