If you shutdown/restart your ASA servers, they are not listing now. any other owners having that issue?

when you go to rent a server for ASA is it just only one server type to rent and its automatically cross play and anyone on any platform can join? I'm asking cause I plan to rent a server once it releases on ps5 on Thursday.

I’m on console and my game keeps crashing when I join a server that my friend runs I can join and get consistently kicked off within a minute. It’s just the game crashing. Anyone have any suggestions?

Is there a way to up the amount of slots on the smithy / fabricator etc?

Or at least use a xplay whitelist only

That simple? Ill try it…

Yes add this to your server launch argument and it will allowe only the platform you listed

Hi all. Got question. I have been always playing with my wife on split screen co-op. But the tether distance is too annoying. So since the ASA is cross platform we want to play on xbox and Ps5 together. But will it be better to rent serwer from Nitrado or i.e. buy another copy on the laptop(16GB RAM) and host dedicated for us two only from there? Share your thoughts please.

ruby merlin
#

the laptop could run a server sounds like it will ok but a server has its advantages like always being active time passing when not logged in

#

its a personal choice spend on a server or use what u got if u can

wise crypt
#

Do the graphic card from PC have any matter in running a serwer? Or is it only RAM

ruby merlin
#

no most servers have zero dedicated gpu just ram and cpu

wise crypt
#

All right thanks 🙂 much appreciated.

ruby merlin
#

aslong as u use the dedicated server install and not the ingame menu then u dont even need to buy another copy

tacit niche
#

You could test if the CPU in your laptop is enough and if not, rent a server

wise crypt
#

Wow i thought i need another copy to test it 🙂

ruby merlin
#

no if u set it up using steamCMd and use the dedicated server files u can do it anonymouse

celest halo
wise crypt
#

How to do this

rich cloak
#

Click the Puch Pin icon at the top of this page, there is a Video walk thru for setting up an ASA server

wise crypt
#

Ok thanks 🙂

ruby merlin
#

thank god someone came in with the comment i was getting chased by a lvl 90 giga

wise crypt
#

Yet another question. Is cross play enabled from the day one they release Ps5 or they disable it for some time. I think i have read somewhere that it will be disabled until further notice

ruby merlin
#

i think dedicated will have the option from the get go

#

i cant see where it says it wont just official

wise crypt
#

Right o thought it may be on officials only 🙂 I hope they release it tomorrow on PS5 and we are good to go

Anyone able to assist with server issues I am having,

Was working on the 25th
Updated my server to Win 2022,

Built a new Ark Server,
Set firewall rules, network rules the works, (Followed the ark server setup on wiki.gg)

However I still cannot get it to show up in the ark server list.

Disable windows firewall,
Done the certificate thing,
Latest update for Server 2022,

Tried adding to steam favourites, to no luck,
Tried directly connecting via a PC on the same network, nothing.

Running a netstat -aon on the server shows port 7777 UDP in use, but not 27015.

jagged wedge
#

whats you ip, I will do a port scan on yeah.

frigid vine
# fallow pine Anyone able to assist with server issues I am having, Was working on the 25th ...

The QueryPort (27015) is/or was using for the SteamServer Browsers only. For A:SA you don't need it. Just the GamePort is relevant. Thats why your netstat -an | findstr "UDP" only shows the GamePort.

Do you have the port forwarding done? I mean its strange that you cannot see it on the same network, but when calling from outside you will need it. Whats your environment? Bare Metal Server or VM?

Hey how do I get mod's on a dedicated server

jagged wedge
fallow pine

#

lame it deleted my links.

#

@fallow pine
Anyways I would purchase and install AMP Game server for $10, and set it up on a linux vm. (making sure to follow the pinned instructions in the Cubecoders discord server under the ark channel)

#

from there you need to install wine 32 and 64 bit and then set the vm.max_map_count parameter.

#

installing game servers on windows server is a nightmare.

#

installing on linux will give you alot more longevity

pseudo relic
#

Does anyone know the code for auto unlock engrams in settings ?

frigid vine
jagged wedge
#

@fallow pine anyways, for my setup I don't really use much of a router between my machines and the internet, I just go directly from the my ISP modems bridge port to the servers with zero firewall inbetween.

You should try to eliminate that router or maybe look at its configuration, it's probably what's bungling things up.

depending how they are configured, routers may automatically change their routing/configuration over time depending on network conditions.

#

that could explain why it may have been working fine for a few days, but then stopped working.
you need to be scanning your external network to see if things are even reaching the internet.

#

Yeah, that problem goes away if you follow me instructions and install on linux.

I host a Nitrado ASA server and have setup 2 daily auto restarts. But when the restarts happen there are no prior warning messages to the restarts, is there anyway to set this up? What I would like is maybe a server message that says ''3 minutes til restart'' ''2 minutes til restart'' etc.

I see that there is something called ''restart message'' but I guess thats just a message that comes up just before the server shuts down, am I correct?

Is there anyway to do this with an rcon tool?

signal zealot

does the global stack code not work?

#

lololol just get chatgpt to write you a recon tool that remote logs into your server and does exactly what you want.

it's basically just going to be a script you run to reboot things.

me personally I went the self hosted route and have dedicated servers, my game panel has all they built in if I decide to use it.

@marble condor In the general settings on the web interface there is a countdown timer you can set for restarts.

Anyone run into issues with their ASA server not spawning bee hives? I've done destroywilddinos several times both with and without destroyall beehive_c first, but no luck — the save game data has no instance of the structure or queen bee blueprints. The real kicker is that the save data does have the spawner volumes and those volumes have property values that claim plenty of hives have been spawned, so it seems like it's "trying," but failing.

#

has anyone found a fix for players having to redownload mods every time they connect to the server?

solemn nova

? On stats for crafting speed what line is it goes to 0 to 10

I think that’s because the server has an older version of the mod, that’s what I saw from one mod creator

I asked them for help with the server restarting itself, and theyve just repeatedly rolled back progress, and last night they somehow removed me from my own tribe, and im still trying to fix the fallout from that. It would be frustrating regardless, but the fact they charge twice as much as gportal does for an Ark: SA server just makes it even more infuriating.

#

All that to find out that apparently their servers come preconfigured to restart at set intervals

opal osprey

which, they could have told me and i could have fixed, but instead they decided to find new and interesting ways to make me want to commit war crimes

# opal osprey strange, it only seems to happen for us when the server hasn't gotten the update...

I had it happening with Teleporters ASA and Upgrade Station. Teleporters has a new update so that's downloading to my server correct, but Upgrade Station still gets the older version from the 21st when I restart the server. I saw on a couple of discords people mentioning the same thing with a few mods. I'm speculating that something is going wrong in the publish from what I can see in the files.

opal osprey
shrewd depot
#

And it's not happening often. This was 2 out of 16 mods - now 1 as of today.

#

Anyone figured out how to pull a players EOS id out of a tribe/player save file yet? I'm not seeing that ID in my files when I parse them

#

They charge twice as much as gportal did for A:SE and I never had forced restarts back then

#

This just tells me I need to invest in my own hardware, because literally anything is better than this nonsense

patent grove
#

Thats what pushed me to build my own server. Had a rented 7dtd server with mods with massive memory leaks and could get 2hrs of play time from a 16gb server before it restarted from over usage of ram. Since then I've never looked at another server rental company agian.

@tardy pine you need atleast 16gb of ram just for the server how ever and 2 free cores

did they change something in the last couple weeks? Got my own standalone using steamcmd... was working fine a couple weeks ago. Obviously there has been an update, updated ark, ran the server which checks for updates.. it no longer shows up in the server browser (running on the same machine) .

My bf and I actually have this in our .bat file. timeout /t 1020

It waits for 1020 seconds until it restarts the server after an update. That way it's automated. If your near it you can actually press any button twice and it'll just go ahead and start the server.

#

And so it doesn't automatically start the server while its trying to update. :3

#

You will want to put it after it says start SteamCMD\steamdcmd (blah blah)

tardy pine
# cinder hare My bf and I actually have this in our .bat file. timeout /t 1020 It waits for 1...

why use the timeout? some updates take longer then others. this is what I am using, having the call function in my batch file keeps the server attached to the window, so the file will not progress to the update function until the server is closed. The "goto first" function sends the file back to the ":first" bookmark in the script and essentially creates an infinite loop. use admin or rcon to send the "doexit" command on your server and it will shut down, the script will then update and reboot the server


::Updates the server
call D:\Ark-SA-Update.bat

::Starts the server
call D:\Ark-SA-Start.bat

goto first
exit```
#

no timeouts or excess waiting for anything, update and reboot happens in about a minute

Can someone help me out,

I have a Nitrado server for Xbox, and somehow I have a player flying around, seemingly cheating or using commands. I don’t know if they have admin access somehow or not, if they do it wasn’t intended. I can’t figure out how to ban them. I don’t have the player list under the tools tab on the Nitrado website. I have their gamertag.

You will need to log in as admin and run showmyadminmanager and ban him from there. There after look into setting up some RCON tools to help you admin the map.

yeah i heard maewing has issues i just used a nanny mod instead

Interesting

ruby merlin

im pretty sure that has something to do with wild dino spawn limit im sure there is a limit to how much can spawn and a lot of badly done mods dont take it into account and wipe out one random spawn numbers to introduce another spawn animal

#

it use to happen with a few ase mods and u had to use beacon to set the spawn rates back

rich cloak
#

Naaaww,, bad mods? naawww no way 😂

ruby merlin
#

ok so it wont spawn beavers instead of itchy and it wont spawn trilo instead of pego i have a feeling its to do with the type they are trilo most likely spawn in water and head to land and beavers spawn on land instead of in the air

im going to play with it a bit

# torn wigeon Does anyone know what the bUseDesiredScreenHeight=false setting does on the game...

That is likely a left over from the binary having all the game settings with it in the inis. On default servers there's a whole bunch of settings that have no impact on dedicated servers. They can be safely removed as they all affect either display in the game or input in the game, both of which do not affect a dedicated server. When I setup my ASA server, I removed all of them and referred to the wiki to get my list of settings that actually apply to dedicated servers. Of course, not all work right now as some things got deprioritized in their rush to launch.

could also maybe be a bad mod if u use dino mods wipe the dinos and see if that works for u

How do I get admin access on a nitrado server, I have been given the password however I cannot get admin access on ps5

Go in the console and type enablecheats <password> without the <> ofc

Did that but still didn’t work

Make sure the admin password is right

It is case sensitive

Anyone know about the queue for console my xbox friends are getting into a queue and getting in eventually but fir me on ps5 it just says sorry its full

celest halo
#

there is no queue, from #announcements Did you add a queue system? Nah it's not a queue, it's just something that allows you to attempt to auto reconnect to a server. Useful if the server you're playing on is full. It's as random as attempting to join manually yourself, except we're trying to save you the clicks. You can still join manually if you choose.

There's a mod that shows it for admins I believe

ooh

solemn zephyr

Just clarifying it's possible since you stated as fact that it's not.

If you're in game, just use showmyadminmanager

forgot all about that, is hard on a ps5 tho xD

I just want to figure out why I can't disable structure placement collision 😦

Also, you don't want spaces in there

For some reason nitrado has spaces between each and I'm not sure how to get rid of them

Is that what is causing the problem?

Do you know how to setup an unofficial that friends can join? Basically I’m a ps5 player that has a gaming pc I never use. I have the server set up on my pc, but my friends cannot join it, but I can.

vital shadow
#

did you portforward?

naive seal
#

I have my port forwarding up but I’m not sure what to put in

vital shadow
#

do you want to use custom ports or regular?

naive seal
#

I just want to make it to where my friends could join. I have no problem joining my own servers. My friends get the prompt server connection failed.

vital shadow
#

portfoward 7777 and 27015 to the ip on the machine thats running the server

celest halo
#

version 31.46 is out for unofficials (dont see any patch notes for it though)

naive seal
#

should this be on my start server setup?

#

start ArkAscendedServer.exe TheIsland_WP?SessionName=Vorginia?AltSaveDirectoryName=TheIsland?MaxPlayers=70?ServerAdminPassword=Imogen4454 -server -log -QueryPort=3478-3480 -Port=7777

vital shadow
#

the internal ip, sometimes like 192.168.1.X or something like that

#

QueryPort=3478-3480 is wrong

celest halo
#

27015 is not needed with ASA

vital shadow
#

choose only 1

naive seal
#

Does it matter which one?

celest halo
#

QueryPort= is not used with ASA

vital shadow
#

it is for me

#

if i remove it it goes to shit

naive seal
#

So I use 3478, now for the port forwarding part, how do I get through that?

vital shadow
#

you can use it, but try only forwarding the 7777 port first

#

see what happens

naive seal
#

Would start port and end port be 7777?

vital shadow
#

both

naive seal
#

So I have port forward and port trigger, do I need to do anything with trigger?

vital shadow
#

forward

broken willow
vital shadow
#

triggering is for somthing else

naive seal
#

It still says port is closed 😢

I myself can join the server on PS5, but my friends cannot.

Our server was set to difficulty level of 10, so all wild dinos can spawn with a max level of 300. We forgot to renew subscription, so server was down for a day. Renewed it, difficulty still set to 10, but everything won't go beyond 150. I tried setting difficulty to 5, 15, 0, and various other numbers, did multiple dino wipes after each restart of the server, and max dinos keep spawning at 150, never above, or even below for that matter.

What is going on?

Heck, I even used the custom dino levels to try and force min levels of 150 and max of 300, and still wild dinos won't go above 150

Soo I have a question, I'm trying to find a engram code so I can change the auto unlock level by default it's set to unlock at level 1. But I want to change it to a higher level as in 999. Can this be done? Also the engram I'm looking for is a mod and I can't find the engram entry anywhere! Is there a way to find out what the engram is? I've tried asking the owner of the mod but they don't seem to respond or reply to anyone. I'm open to suggestions at this point lol
