start server\ShooterGame\Binaries\Win64\ArkAscendedServer.exe TheIsland_WP?sessionname="LostWorld-x3/x10-vanilla"?ServerAdminPassword=XXXX -port=7778 -winliveMaxPlayers=70 -NoBattlEye

[gray rapids]

thx another question do i need " " around password?

[distant hearth]

i prefer to do that just becuase without the quotations "my password", wud not work, its fine if you dont put a space or special charachters, but can play up without the quotes , ie
?serverpassword=my server

this wudnt work, becuase of the space

?serverpassword="my password"
will work fine

[gray rapids]

still server not visible, tho i did check box for show player servers

[distant hearth]

you have port 7778 udp forwarded through firewall and router?

[gray rapids]

i did order a dedicate server for this and working on that machine, but maybe i still need to port forwarding

[distant hearth]

your telling it run on port 7778udp with the command -port=7778
so that port must be forwarded

if it still wont show, try using this as session name ,
?sessionname="Lostworldx3x10vanilla"

start out simple, make it work, then add on more complex parts.

[gray rapids]

and its UDP not TCP?

[distant hearth]

yes must be udp

the only tcp port used on asa is for rcon connections, which you dont have set in startline so didnt mention it

[gray rapids]

Did forward a port and did change name to your sugestion still dont show up

[distant hearth]

give it upto 5 mins to show up , you must forward the udp defined through firewall inbound and what ever else between server and internet, routers , switches , etc etc

[tired basalt]

I have
"ForceAllowCaveFlyers=True"
but for some reason i still cant fly in realms or magmasaur cave

[distant hearth]

try this is in the game user setting ini ,
bForceCanRideFliers=True
i think thats the line i used to make fliers useable everywhere on fjordur in ase

[gray rapids]

i did turn off windows firewall etc did even try server creation tool it says server started but i dont see it in the list. What i react to is it says server started and took like 12sec aint it used to be like 40sec? maybe it dont load a map?

[distant hearth]

you can try connecting to it with using
open ipaddres:port
in the games command console, but it seems like something is blocking it to me,

Commandline: TheIsland_WP -port=7778
this is not how command line shud look if you used ,
start server\ShooterGame\Binaries\Win64\ArkAscendedServer.exe TheIsland_WP?sessionname="LostWorld-x3/x10-vanilla"?ServerAdminPassword=XXXX -port=7778 -winliveMaxPlayers=70 -NoBattlEye

and the file path is correct, try doing it like this ,but make the start batch file and launch it in the same location as the arkascendedserver.exe
start ArkAscendedServer.exe TheIsland_WP?sessionname="LostWorld-x3/x10-vanilla"?ServerAdminPassword=XXXX -port=7778 -winliveMaxPlayers=70 -NoBattlEye

[stiff whale]

what’s the best server to choose when making a server? Should i choose new york?

[distant hearth]

usually its best to go with the lowest ping/distance to the majority of the player base,
i.e i live in uk,europe , so that wud be a terrible choice for me for a server location

[stiff whale]

thank you. Me and my friend also live in the UK but we are thinking some American people will join so we aren’t sure.

[distant hearth]

i tend to go with german based servers from the uk , it seems to have better connection over the london ones, presuming your going through nitrado

[stiff whale]

is 84ms bad? is it difficult to run on?

[distant hearth]

itsnot terrible , anything under 100 i consider good , under 150 playable , over tghat you notice it alot

shud be noted i have terrible internet so i might not be the best judge of whats ok

[jaunty vortex]

Take the Ark ping times with a pinch of salt. It tells me the ping to my server is 80ms. It’s physically right by my knee 🙄

[dusk falcon]

mine Scorched is bugged, you can't travel from it to any map, does anyone know how to solve it, it's the only one that's like this

[distant hearth]

check its using the same clusterid as all the others, the same cluster folder if its self host (non nitrado ) and theese lines in gus.ini

PreventDownloadDinos=False
PreventDownloadItems=False
PreventDownloadSurvivors=False

PreventUploadDinos=False
PreventUploadItems=False
PreventUploadSurvivors=False```

[dusk falcon]

I already checked, everything is ok, it just starts the transfer and doesn't finish, and you can't even move the character, I've done everything and it doesn't help

[distant hearth]

specifically the no tributedownloads=false and preventdownloadsurvivors=false
will block people downloading on it

[distant hearth]

ah sry i cant help then if you checked everything

[dusk falcon]

I wanted to know if anyone else is like this, because it was after the update

[mellow elk]

is there anyway to check changes in nitrado or when backups were ran? Hopped on this morning after overnight restart and rolled back about 24 hours

[stiff whale]

i’ve made my server, i can’t find how to increase certain levels e.g. i’m trying to make it so 1 level adds thousands to weight

anyone have any idea? (i’m on Nitrado)

[distant hearth]

add lines in game.ini
the base line is
PerLevelStatsMultiplier_Player[<attribute>]=<multiplier>
as found here in the wiki , https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Server_configuration#PerLevelStatsMultiplier
an example to add 1000 weight per point for players wud be
PerLevelStatsMultiplier_Player[7]=100
[7] = the weight attribute, =100 mutiples the default 10 weight for each point ,

[stiff whale]

thank you. Where do i find game.ini on nitrado?

[distant hearth]

ughh good question, ive not used them for asa , i think its on the left somewhere , under maybe file browser or summit like that , sry i dont really know as it was changed from how ase did it

[wise kindle]

Config Files, game.ini

[gray rapids]

i think i found the problem, evry time i start server i get a crashreport tho the exe file keeps runing, is this normal?

[distant hearth]

i havent checked my test ones since last couple updates, it wasnt normal , but its ark so i dont know now

[gray rapids]

[CrashReportClient]
bHideLogFilesOption=false
bIsAllowedToCloseWithoutSending=true
CrashConfigPurgeDays=2

[distant hearth]

that one is now noraml i guess, just updated one mine , cleared all crash files, and it generates this on startup

[stiff whale]

i’ve activated creative mode in nitrado but i can’t see it in game, any ideas?

[olive talon]

Press start and see if it's on the menu. If not, open console commands and enablecheats password, then try again.

[distant hearth]

must have a admin password set , then use

cheat gcm```

this line in game.ini is no longer used in asa
bShowCreativeMode=true
it was an old ase line to allow consoleusers access to admin mode, doesnt do anything in asa

[stiff whale]

where do i input the admin password?

[distant hearth]

probably under general settings on nitrado
or you can do it in gus ini

[stiff whale]

i’ve set the admin password, i mean in game so i can have cheats

[distant hearth]

oh its the tilde key to open the command console on pc, not sure on console, see below by bee

[olive talon]

https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Console_commands has it

[stiff whale]

everything i thank you, but it doesn’t seem to work. When i go into console commands and i put “enablecheats”, nothing happens

i’m not sure where i can put the admin password so i can become an admin

[olive talon]

Type in your password after enablecheats

[stiff whale]

as a command?

[olive talon]

Like if I were to do it,

enablecheats BeesAreCool

[olive talon]

Yes

[stiff whale]

ahhh okay thank you

love the bee theme

[olive talon]

Whatever admin password you set with your nitrado server settings is the password you'd add after enablecheats

[stiff whale]

still didn’t work

my password is currently “kenzie”, so i put the command “enablecheats kenzie”

[wise kindle]

How do you know it didnt work?

[stiff whale]

coz cheats aren’t working

[wise kindle]

Which cheats?

[stiff whale]

gcm

[wise kindle]

Cheat gcm

[distant hearth]

i always just use cheat gcm , its the easiets one to tell if its working

[stiff whale]

yeah didn’t work

[wise kindle]

Do it twice

[distant hearth]

on a server u always need "cheat" before the actual cheat command , everytime

[wise kindle]

Lag can cause it to not work the first time

[stiff whale]

still didn’t work

“cheat gcm”

[wise kindle]

Is your password capitalized?

[stiff whale]

no

[wise kindle]

Wait, you arent adding quotes are you?

[distant hearth]

no qoutes , and yea dont use capitals on console for password, they have issues with it

[stiff whale]

no aha

i’ll restart server and try again

[wise kindle]

When you are setting the password, did you shutdown the map?

[distant hearth]

recheck the server ini files, make sure you have it correct,

nitrado server to make changes ,

wait 5 mins
make changes
save it 
wait 1 min
restart it ```

[wise kindle]

Lmao will and i on the exact same wavelength atm

[distant hearth]

its the only other thing i seen causes issues with the admin mode

[wise kindle]

Yep. Password isnt set right. Im there too.

[distant hearth]

honestly 99% of nitrado config issues are from not doing the correct shutdown and wait procedure i mention above, sure it sometimes works if you dont wait,but it caused me so much headaches with not going through till i started to do that

half time i waited 10 mins tbh, i got into the habbit of shut down , go make coffee haha

[wise kindle]

The other 1% is ppl IMMEDIATELY making changes to their maps 5 seconds after they put the map up and ignoring the huge banner that says wait 1 hour till the server is done setting up before making changes 🤦‍♀️

actually thats more like 50% to be perfectly honest

[distant hearth]

patience is a virtue

[wise kindle]

Also

Reading is fundemental.

[river hull]

Hey, tried making a special port for both of them

But it’s still not working

Also tried this, doesn’t work either : (

[distant hearth]

do both servers run from the same .exe or out of seperate install folders?

[river hull]

It’s from same exe

[velvet root]

Maybe change the startup files to swap the ports between the two servers. If the problem switches to the other server you will know for sure it’s a port problem

If it stays with original server it has to be something with the startup of that server

[river hull]

Sounds good, will be testing that

[river hull]

Is running from same exe a problem?

[distant hearth]

no, it just changes how you cluster, how u have it shud work , u might want to also check these lines in the gus.ini

PreventDownloadDinos=False
PreventDownloadItems=False
PreventDownloadSurvivors=False

PreventUploadDinos=False
PreventUploadItems=False
PreventUploadSurvivors=False```

[stiff whale]

it worked, thank you all

i’ve got another question
and is there a way i can make it so everyone automatically unlock all engrams when they level up?

[river hull]

I should also add that I can upload my Dinos and items, and it also creates a folder named clusters with my steam id in it. It just shows no session when I clicked on travel, with both servers up and running

[distant hearth]

check the settings i mention above, notributesdownload=false is a common one gets missed

[distant hearth]

in the game.ini set this line,
bAutoUnlockAllEngrams=true

just be aware , this unlocks tek at lvl 100
if you dont want it to do that , u need to add a load lines seperate, i do it using ark beacon app as its loads lines code

[stiff whale]

yeah that’s good, thank you so much!

[river hull]

No problem, added them and it’s gonna take another 15 mins for it to start up and join again lol

[distant hearth]

shud really check to see if they are there in first place then change if set true,
otherwise you cud end up with duplicate lines causing more issues

[austere fulcrum]

tell me how to fix the error - You have been kicked because the время
server did not receive your unique identifiers

[river hull]

Yep, I checked and I had the first 4 lines but not the upload lines before

[river hull]

Currently testing it out, but also I can see both server when click on join ark in the title menu, but not travel in between in game

[spare raft]

Hi, I have a problem with my server. No one can build at tag level... I know an option exists and I enabled it... "?PvEAllowStructuresAtSupplyDrops=false" False or true .. nothing

[wise kindle]

tag level?

Id help but I have no idea what tag level is.

[velvet root]

If it doesn’t show you the other server from the obelisk it doesn’t think it’s part of the same cluster. Retype both cluster ids to make sure there’s no funky hidden characters in one of them. Also make sure there isn’t a line in the ini files setting one of the cluster id to something odd Not sure if that’s even a thing in ASA but I would check anyway

[river hull]

Will be checking for that, also I’m on ASE for mods that I liked haha

[wise kindle]

Does this happen to everyone, or only happen to your character?

[river hull]

Friends in my server can’t see any sessions either

[velvet root]

Advice should be same. Don’t think they changed much about cluster setup

[wise kindle]

ah ok, I misunderstood then. I thought you meant you can click on the ark in the menu but nothing happens.

[velvet root]

That list is based on the cluster ID. I’ve had it show even when the server was unreachable for other reasons. Cluster id and query port are only two things I can think of that would stop it from even showing

[velvet root]

WAIT. I had this happen in ASE once. Do you have passwords set? If so, make sure that option is selected from the connect screen that pops up in the obelisk. I fought this for like an hour couple years ago

[river hull]

I don’t have a password set sadly 😦

[velvet root]

Well. It was a thought. lol

[river hull]

Just switched ports but it didn’t change anything

Can still see both server in join menu, but not travel in game

[velvet root]

Yeah. I forgot this was only from the transfer screen issue. Ports wouldn’t be the issue if you can connect directly to both servers from main screen

[river hull]

I did some search on the net and saw someone saying that it might have to do with that ase is searching for server in unofficial when looking for cluster rather than searching for LAN, I have no idea how to get it to search though

[velvet root]

The same options are at the bottom of the connect screen when transferring as when you connect from main screen. Make sure whatever options get the servers to show up there are set when trying to transfer

[river hull]

For me it doesn’t have the session filter selection, so I was wondering if that was the cause

[icy stone]

Anyone know if the seed farm mod has a discord? I’m having some issues with it and need to add some game.ini stuff to get rid of the ultimate tek crop plot

[velvet root]

Shouldn’t matter. I think that’s not there because it’s automatically filtering to cluster members

But other options can cause issues. Like the Show Password protected servers. Don’t remember what all is in that screen. Like I said it’s been couple years since I setup a cluster in ASE

[bleak ivy]

pretty sure that is the issue, lan doesn't show for clusters.
its what I found when I did ASE clusters anyway.

[river hull]

Something really weird just happened, when I joined the destination server through main menu, i spawned as my old character and I can access to my Dinos in the obelisk, while I still couldn’t travel from the original server. But I guess it’s kinda fixed, now just for my friends to test if they can also do the same thing successfully. Have no idea how my character transfer even though I didn’t upload my character though.

[river hull]

Damn. Do you happen to remember how to fix it ?

[velvet root]

That means the cluster save directory is working

[river hull]

I assume that’s good news : ) thanks for all the time and advice you gave

[bleak ivy]

I didn't find a fix. since it was a private server I just used the ascend command whenever I wanted to transfer. (force upload like an ascension)
it should just be you having the issue.

I think there was a router setting that might've fixed it 🤷 but I don't remember.

[river hull]

Yeah, saw people with a literal essay about it, but the conclusion is if your router doesn’t support it, you’re still doomed lol

[bleak ivy]

yeah, I didn't want to mess with my router so I just used the ascend command. who knows if mine supports it lol.

[river hull]

I see lol, will look into the ascend command more, thanks for advice!

[bleak ivy]

its this one https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Console_commands#Slomo:~:text=cheat OpenMap TheIsland-,cheat Playercommand,-<CommandName>
can just do ext since that one gives no levels.

I boosted levels so I just did gamma island

[river hull]

Is it the “cheat extascend1” command ?

[bleak ivy]

its cheat Playercommand EXTAscend1

[river hull]

I see, thanks a lot 🙂

[pseudo saddle]

Ok everyone, I'm still stuck. R710 server server 2019, found out ASA won't work on that server OS. Setup Hyper-V and started a win 10 ASA server, adjusted all forwards to new VM IP, and static assigned that IP via DHCP for that address, but still can't find the server even on the LAN

[native wave]

I assume you're trying to find it in game

[pseudo saddle]

Ive tried searching for it both in game and also trying to add via steam in game servers

[native wave]

but since you mention LAN, you might also be trying steam server browser, which doesn't work

ASA doesn't use the query port anymore

[pseudo saddle]

even tried adding it by IP to favorites, like the old ase server could

I tried by IP:7777

[native wave]

it doesn't use the steam api so it will not find it

but in game, you should see it

[pseudo saddle]

I also even tried running open IP:7777 in ASA at the menu but it don't work either

I'm stumped lol, I have ran ASE, enshrouded, palworld, etc servers with no issues

ASA is the first giving me problems, could my ISP be an issue?

[native wave]

yeah I've never gotten mine to connect via the open command either

[pseudo saddle]

it's the only thing else that changed, but with LAN I would think that would not matter

[native wave]

any kind of firewall setup on server 2019?

[velvet root]

From what I read the LAN issue only affected people on the LAN with the servers. You said your friends can’t see them either? Are they on the same lan or connecting across the internet?

[pseudo saddle]

Just the default, but I have all the game ports open both ways

I have not tried with any friends yet, my wife and I usually only play on it

[bleak ivy]

the open command can't use passwords. I've had no issues any other way.

[pseudo saddle]

non dedicated works for us with no issues also

[river hull]

I am not too sure, but I use zerotier to connect us. which I believe form a LAN connection?

[bleak ivy]

that would be lan yes.

[native wave]

yeah last time I tried it was before the whitelists worked

[bleak ivy]

I just disabled the password. I'm not port-forwarding so nobody can join anyway.

[pseudo saddle]

I have all ports for the games open, on the win 10 VM, the R710 server, and my router is forwarding all ports to the IP of the VM

[native wave]

nm

[pseudo saddle]

I have rules set there for the ports also

I usually do the advanced rules, and set inbound and outbound rules with TCP/UDP ports allowed

[native wave]

when looking for it in game, do you search for your server name?

[pseudo saddle]

Yes

[native wave]

k

[pseudo saddle]

I've tried checking and unchecking boxes, like player servers, and refreshing and never see it

[native wave]

best way for me to find my servers in the list since favorites is broken

[velvet root]

Zero tier? I’m unfamiliar but a quick google seems like it is a vpn. Maybe that is what’s interfering. I just connect to my lan and then open port forwards on my router. No idea what issues a vpn in the mix would cause

[native wave]

player servers has to be checked otherwise you'll never see it. it only shows nitrado servers if you leave that unchecked

[river hull]

It just create a virtual lan server which my friends and I connect to, and it functions as if we’re in the same network (from my understanding)

[bleak ivy]

it works like a VPN but it makes it so you can have lan connections through the internet. like hamachi

[velvet root]

But putting the servers on regular lan and machine that is trying to connect to the servers on a VPN was one of the recommended solutions to the LAN servers not showing up in cluster problem

[pseudo saddle]

From what I can tell the server is up and running fine also, I can see the saving world, etc in the logs

I even went as far as connecting from server to router ports, bypassing my main switch to test and it didn't change anything

if my ISP is blocking a port or something could that cause it to not show up in the list

[river hull]

What does this mean?

Like putting machines on VPN to solve LAN connection problem was the suggestion?

[pseudo saddle]

I know before you had to allow 7777-7778, 27015 and then a port or two for the server to be seen on the list

[bleak ivy]

that just makes it so its an outgoing connection instead. you would need to port-forward which I assume they aren't since they are using zerotier.

[river hull]

Yeah, I’m currently not portforwarding

[velvet root]

No idea really. I just skimmed a post about the lan issue. Have you tried not using zero tier and use port forwarding in your router?

[river hull]

Well, I used zerotier so I don’t mess with my router haha

[full oak]

does anyone have a config example for custom cosmetics?

[velvet root]

Right. But that seems an unnecessary complication. All the setup guides use port forwarding. Using zero tier would mean every player you want to access also be on it. Which basically makes everyone a “LAN” connection which seems to be an issue with ASE clusters

[bleak ivy]

I'd just allow all of them. CosmeticWhitelistOverride="URL"

[bleak ivy]

yeah, but not everybody can do port-forwarding.
there are a ton of reasons why you wouldn't be able to. anything from the router to the ISP can make it be a no.

[full oak]

What is the URL to allow everyone

[bleak ivy]

that is the URL to allow everything.

[full oak]

oh ok

[river hull]

Personally I’ve been the server holder in our friend groups and we already had zerotier set up wayyyy before our ark server, and even further back we were using hamachi. It’s certainly not over complication for us since we’re now all very familiar with the system

[gray rapids]

anyone else see this yellow message on server start up "Couldn't load mods library from disk
"

[bleak ivy]

its just unfortunate that ark has issues with lan servers. afaik there is no fix, just gotta use the ascend command

[velvet root]

I understand. But it makes troubleshooting a pain since most of use will have no experience. :).

[bleak ivy]

its just a lan issue, zerotier isn't doing anything

[river hull]

lol, at least I got a command to get around it, which is more than enough

[bleak ivy]

yeah, I've been using that workaround since I started hosting on the win10(gamepass/microsoft store) client lol. when I switched back to steam the lan issue was still there so kept using it.

[river hull]

Yeah, I didn’t expect it to ran into these kind of issues since this game has already been around since 2016, and I thought this would be addressed in past patches

[bleak ivy]

messing with the server browser would probably cause a ton of issues since its already really bad lol

[velvet root]

Yeah. You would expect that. Does zero tier allow you to setup multiple “LANS”. Maybe putting the server on a separate LAN and mimicking the port forwarding between the two networks would fix it? And yes, I’m basically just throwing out wild guesses at this point. lol

[pseudo saddle]

Yeah, sadly ASA seems to have nightmare problems, I never had this many issues with ASE, and I ran I think 4-5 Maps clusted with ASE on the server before with no issues

So I might be stuck running non dedicated from my system till things get worked out, I also called my ISP to see if they are blocking anything just to rule that out

[river hull]

It’s possible to set up multiple networks, but I’ve already been dealing with this issue long enough and bug everyone with the resets every 20 mins lol. For now I’ll just enjoy the game. Thanks for all the advices. : )

[distant hearth]

half the issues with asa self host is people using the wrong server start commands,(old ones from ase), the servers show as running in tickingloop, but they arent joinable for some reason .
the best way to check , is look for the server name on battlemterics website, with tell you what ip adress an port its running on , if its actually running properly and the specified udp port is forwarded

[bleak ivy]

I should test it but I think this issue is fixed for ASA (there is no lan tab anyway) I should try out a cluster.

[pseudo saddle]

yeah battlemetrics don't see my server

[velvet root]

Anyone know the CustomLiveTuningUrl to use for Small Tribes rates on a dedicated server. The Wiki has a URL for ASA but doesn't say which rates that will pull.

[full oak]

I have added this to the GameUserSettings.ini CosmeticWhitelistOverride=URL but it does not work. The "" was automatically removed.

[river hull]

When the mods we have make the transition to ASA that’ll be our time to move lol, and I’ll probably need to come here for help again. But for now ASE is more than enough : )

[distant hearth]

only time thats happended for me was when i didnt have the udp port forwarded ,
asa servers sometimes dont work with ?port=xxxx , they always work with -port=xxxx far as i know

[bleak ivy]

that is weird. are you on a nitrado server?

[full oak]

No self hostet, nitrado server are shit

[bleak ivy]

oh, mine also removed it. weird, it should work tho

[full oak]

its not working 😦

[bleak ivy]

make sure you restart your game, respawn, are using the new menu (next to folder view)

[full oak]

oh I haven't seen the new menu. It works! 🙂

[pseudo saddle]

I'll have to check that in the startup. thanks!

[cunning trail]

How do I add the dear jane mod to unofficial server? I can't manage to find the numbers anywhere online.

[distant hearth]

983782

found it online from the curseforge webpage that i cant link lolz

[cunning trail]

Thanks buddy. I looked at curse but didn't see it.

[distant hearth]

they really need to allow links to that site now its where all the official mods are held

[cunning trail]

Wheres it posted on curse? I must be looking in the wrong area.

[stiff whale]

for some reason, in my server, different tribe can enter each others storage? What’s the setting i can change this at?

[distant hearth]

forceallstructurelocking=true

[cunning trail]

They need to pin code them

[distant hearth]

you can double check here, i might typo it ,
https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Server_configuration

[stiff whale]

the code didn’t work, i also couldn’t find it on the website

any idea where to look?

[tardy pine]

You can just pin code all your doors and containers. That setting doesnt seem to be verified for ASA

[bleak ivy]

I can confirm it is fixed for ASA (just made a cluster lol)

[distant hearth]

use ctrl f to search a website an it comes up ,
ForceAllStructureLocking=true
goes in gameusersettingini under the header [serversettings]

it dont care about capitals so i had it right , it works in asa

[harsh pilot]

Can’t get character transfers to work

Have same cluster ID with character upload download enabled but when transferring get stuck downloading character

[distant hearth]

self host or nitrado?

[harsh pilot]

Nitrado

[distant hearth]

check these settings ,
NoTributeDownloads=False
PreventDownloadDinos=False
PreventDownloadItems=False
PreventDownloadSurvivors=False

PreventUploadDinos=False
PreventUploadItems=False
PreventUploadSurvivors=False

most people miss the notributedownloads=false
if set true it blocks all downloads

[harsh pilot]

Appreciate it

[gray rapids]

Thx all for trying help me and i guess more ppl have same problem- run dedicate server and dont see their server on list. We all was thinking it regarding portforwarding, but i found post in internet with same issue that helped me solve my problem. I had to install somthing called "UnrealEngine Dedicated Server Install Certificate Script" after that install all issues was fixed.

[pseudo saddle]

I get errors trying to run that, not sure I trust that either

[velvet root]

I just tested my servers from my kids computer. Both servers are running on my pc and he was able to connect and transfer from one to the other

[bleak ivy]

yeah, ASA doesn't have a second tab for lan so it works.

[native wave]

oh yeah, that thing...only applies to windows servers. information for it is up on the wiki. Never had to do that with my servers as they run using proton in Linux

[velvet root]

Anyone know the CustomLiveTuningUrl to use for Small Tribes rates on a dedicated server? The Wiki has a URL for ASA but doesn't say which rates that will pull.

[native wave]

https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Dedicated_server_setup#Windows_Server_editions

[velvet root]

Yeah. But it’s Ark. Never hurts to verify. 🤣

[bleak ivy]

I did lol

[velvet root]

lol. 🙂

[pseudo saddle]

crap, wonder if that would work with my server

[velvet root]

I missed that. Hehe

[velvet root]

You running Dedicated?

[native wave]

worth a try. sorry, I knew about it but obviously, since I've never done it...not in my thought process when troubleshooting usually

[pseudo saddle]

Yeah, poweredge R710, running windows server 2019

[spare raft]

Good evening, I have a problem with my clustered server. When I launch my 2 instances only the one which is launched in 2nd works. The 1st tells me connection timeout exceeded. Whatever card I throw first or second I have the same result. a help ?

[velvet root]

Are you running both on different ports? Sounds like the second to launch is taking over the ports

[spare raft]

Yup ports its differents

It had been working for several months and suddenly it no longer worked.

[distant hearth]

if its asa servers, try using -port=xx to change port, half time ?port=xxx dont work

[spare raft]

If I run The Island in 1st and Scorched in 2nd Scorched will run very well. If I do the opposite it will be The Island which will run perfectly well. Not a port problem

[distant hearth]

it sounds to me like the seconf server that you starts becuase it will default to port 7778 udp , an that port is open .
doubles check u have port 7777 udp open, sometimes a router can update an mess with the forwarding

[velvet root]

I’d comb through my ini files too. Just to make sure an extraneous port setting didn’t sneak in. Can’t you put the port in game.ini also? Or was that ASE only?

If you start one server and don’t start second can you connect?

[distant hearth]

ase thing , asa i only cud get to change port usinf -port=xxxx in start command .

what they do is first server you start runs udp7777 default, then the second defauklts to 7778, etc etc etc

[spare raft]

at the 1st no

Only the 2nd

[velvet root]

That doesn’t mean they aren’t stomping on each other’s ports for some reason. That just means they both have working ports

So running only one server never works?

[spare raft]

No

[distant hearth]

asa only needs the one udp port open to connect an play on the server , it defaults to udp7777,
most servers are running on that unless u specify a port using -port=xxxx ,
if one server is running on 7777, the next server instance started , defaults to udp 7778 unless told other wise with -port=xxxx

use battlemetrics website , search server name to see what actual ip an port there using , to verify

[velvet root]

I’d go through every step of setting posts again. Including port forwards in the router and server’s firewall. And verify my startup scripts haven’t gotten messed with. Check game port and query port every step

[distant hearth]

asa doesnt use a query port, thats the old steam port, asa runs on eos

[velvet root]

If that doesn’t work, I’d probably try something silly like setting up a third server. Start all three and see if it is only ever the first server that breaks.

[native wave]

two possible ports for ASA: Game Port (UDP) and RCon Port (TCP), and you generally don't port forward for the RCon port unless you know how to secure it.

[stiff whale]

anyone know the command to tp to a player?

[wise kindle]

Cheat Teleporttoplayername (igname)

[spare raft]

OK I FOUND IT !!!!!!! ..; It's Satisfactory Game which shares the base ports of ark. We manually change the ports of ARk but they still take the authorizations of the Satisfactory port

[stiff whale]

didn’t seem to work. the persons name is “proongles” so i put the command “cheat teleporttoproongles”

[distant hearth]

you need a space

[wise kindle]

No, cheat teleporttoplayername proonglea

Or whatever you spell that

[distant hearth]

glad u found it

[stiff whale]

worked thank you!

[native wave]

that'd do it

[gritty raptor]

What was the ini line for autounlockengrams on ase?

[velvet root]

Thanks!! Wasn’t aware of this. I unforwarded my query ports. No reason to leave a hole in my firewall

[distant hearth]

in the game.ini set this line,
bAutoUnlockAllEngrams=true

just be aware , this unlocks tek at lvl 100
if you dont want it to do that , u need to add a load lines seperate, i do it using ark beacon app as its loads lines code

[velvet root]

Anyone know the CustomLiveTuningUrl to use for Small Tribes rates on a dedicated server? The Wiki has a URL for ASA but doesn't say which rates that will pull.

[distant hearth]

fun thing, you can start and run and join an asa server with udp port 7777 forwarded using just this batch file in the smae location as the exe
start arkascendedserver.exe theisland_wp
it will default to port 7777 an set a random name for it the gus ini

tbf u dont need start, only put that in so it auto closes the batch file lol , i spent a few days over xmas messing with the start commands to figure it all out

[velvet root]

Does that enable Battle Eye by default? Cause I hate that thing. lol

[distant hearth]

yea it wud , needs -nobattleye to disable that

[velvet root]

K. Thanks. 🙂

[native topaz]

Hey guys

Me and my Friend made our own Server with Nitrado and we tried to change our Harvesting/Baby Mature Rates.

Harvesting is on x100 but we only pickup 3x stones. But if we harvest with pick axe/hatched we get a good amount. And Mature Rate is on like 50x but it doesnt do anything. Babys still growing super slow and imprint timer is still on like 4h..🤔

[alpine mountain]

Is there something wrong with the most recent server update? My server has been crashing roughly every 20 minutes since then and unfortunately I don't have a recent backup

[pseudo saddle]

Hey all, I got some progress, I installed those certs on server 2019 and got the server started back up. I can't see it in the list but when trying to do the open IP:port I now get wrong server password, I can't seem to find how to get the password to take, I tried the open IP:PORT?password but still gives wrong password

going to test without password and see if that works for now

[winter folio]

Hi! I started a server yesterday and it is stuck in restart mode. I tried reinstalling about 3 times and nothing works. The only time the server comes up is right after a reinstall before I change the settings.

[pseudo saddle]

Ok, got the server working sort of, had to use the open command with no password to be able to connect, but had a really funny thing happen. I spawned in, and my wife shortly after, and we quite literally shit ourselves to death.... no idea what setting is messed up.

[winter folio]

What kind of settings you got? Super boosted?

[pseudo saddle]

Most were default other than the usual, IE xp boost, gathering, etc

[icy stone]

So no help on seed farm mod discord as it seems to not be alive anymore. Would this be the game.ini to remove the two engrams?

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

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

[pseudo saddle]

I need to go though and see something was messed up lol

[tired basalt]

"NPCReplacements=(FromClassName="Sauropod_Character_BP_Rockwell_C",ToClassName="CrystalWyvern_Character_BP_Blood_C")
NPCReplacements=(FromClassName="Gacha_Character_BP_C",ToClassName="CrystalWyvern_Character_BP_Blood_C")

DinoSpawnWeightMultipliers=(DinoNameTag="CrystalWyvern_Character_BP_C",SpawnWeightMultiplier=0.5,OverrideSpawnLimitPercentage=true,SpawnLimitPercentage=1.0)"
will this run?

[inner adder]

Im trying to launch a dedicated server but I keep getting a few errors that pretty much tell me that MS Visual C++ Redistributable is not installed, even though it is installed. Any fixes?

[pseudo saddle]

I would say download the all in one for all versions

there is several that different games use, IE 2005, 2008, 2015, etc

[inner adder]

that fixed it, thanks

[storm thicket]

hi my unoffical server hosting through nitrado has a small amount of wyevrns in the scar

[odd cypress]

im having an issue on nitrado where i cant activate admin commands i will put in enablecheats then the admin password and still being unable to use any

[harsh pilot]

Anyone have spawn code for treasure maps

[olive talon]

Pinned messages. Beacon link has spawn codes.

cheat gfi PrimalItem_TreasureMap 1 0 0

[inner adder]

is it possible to not put my mods on my start.bat file? I would rather have them in a ini file so I can simplify the launch bats when hosting a cluster

[icy stone]

anyone know why this isnt working for the seed farm mod am i missing something? SF maybe? OverrideNamedEngramEntries=(EngramClassName="EngramEntry_TekCropPlot_C",EngramHidden=True)

their discord is basically dead. i cant figure out how to get rid of the tek and ultimate tek crop plot since they are able to make BBS

[quaint elk]

i'm looking for some help setting up a crosschat and store plugin for my server that uses sql anyone got any knowledge of this process i nothing about sql

[distant hearth]

try this way , might work ,

[lunar cloud]

Have not tried it, but the WIKI shows ActiveMods is still supported by both ASA and ASE and can be get in GameUserSettings.ini
https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Server_configuration#[ServerSettings]

[snow fox]

finally switched to scorched earth, and overnight all my server settings went to default. wtf

[gritty raptor]

We got three maps all clustered via the code, we can travell and all that, but before travelling we have to upload everrything at an obelisk or a transmitter or a drop, if we dont do that our inventory gets cleared, and we cant travel directly, we have to upload our characters, how can we fix that?

[gritty raptor]

We are hosting on ase via nitrado

[latent yacht]

lol ark update corrupted my nitrado server.....

fun stuff 🤙

[wise kindle]

What do you mean by travel directly?

[gritty raptor]

Without having to upload character, restarting game, loading onto the target server

[wise kindle]

Are all your maps set to the same cluster id?

[native wave]

You're in the wrong channel for official servers. This is for unofficial and single player.

[pseudo saddle]

How do I find the Mod ID on curseforge to add to the ActiveMods= ?

Looking at added the Rustic building mod but don't see the ID anywhere to add to the server to have it download

[native wave]

Project id = mod id

[pseudo saddle]

oh, sweet, well that's obvious lol, thanks!

[native wave]

No problem. Yeah curseforge does their own thing...since they serve multiple games

[pseudo saddle]

Got it, will clients auto download the mods or do they have to download also? I know with ASE bigger mods had issues with downloading before

[native wave]

They should download automatically, but they sometimes get stuck. In those cases just have them download from the mod menu before joining the server. I post a mod list in my discord for friends playing on my server so they can do just that.

[pseudo saddle]

So to update on the server here. those certs worked, but we both still have to use the open IP:port command to connect, can't see them in the server list at all

[native wave]

Sounds like something is still blocking the server list from seeing your server.

Might also just take time to show up.

[pseudo saddle]

Yeah, I wondered if something my ISP too

[gritty raptor]

Yeah, the exact same one, it‘s a custom one tho

[pseudo saddle]

I know I have everything forwarded correctly, since I have ran ASE clusters and all with no issues

[native wave]

Some don't like customers putting up services on their connection unfortunately

[native wave]

Hmm

[pseudo saddle]

but I have switched homes and ISP since

so the only other real factor that has changed

[pseudo latch]

Anyone having issues with the new horrirdevmod cosmetic mod ps5

Ok, thanks

[gritty raptor]

It is like that

[inner adder]

on my dedicated server, my friend just lost his character and items due to a crash during transfer. Im not too worried, as i can admincheat his items, but how do I fix this happening again?

[haughty ether]

and your cross ark has no check boxes checked?

[gritty raptor]

None

Also one of the guys just traveled over a dino(baryonix) from gen 2 to ragna and it got set back to lvl1

If u want I can send you ini via dm

[haughty ether]

sounds like your server settings are not identical , or transfers are messed up, no sorry I havent time to check through INI just now

[gritty raptor]

Well the only things that dont match up are the points per stat(on gen2 higher than on rag, and only by a little bit, also gen2 has a stackmod and autounlockengrams)

No worries, still thank you

[rose frigate]

fixed

[gritty raptor]

Could the issue be that the maps are split between two nitrado accounts? But it‘s even between those of the same account

[haughty ether]

Shouldn’t be. I’ve clustered ASE servers before on different Nitrado accounts

[gritty raptor]

Oke, well Idk whats the problem then, thanks tho

[bleak ivy]

my scorched is using 3.1 it has 2 players on it

[bleak ivy]

I'm self-hosting lol

No, a dedicated

both task manager and the server console say 3.1GB(task manager shows just under 3GB) 🤷

now its at 3.2

wonder if something is capping it its not lagging at all tho so doubt it.

ASA, I think I would know what game I'm running lol

my ASE used more

granted I had a bunch of mods

[trim yew]

I always bring up resource monitor

[bleak ivy]

task manager wouldn't be wrong on usage would it lol

[trim yew]

3gb is extremely low... 7gb scorch and like 11gb island

[bleak ivy]

my island also uses 3gb

it is definitely being capped, SE just dropped to 2GB lol

still not lagging tho 😂

that would be lag..

[trim yew]

Is it in a docker or a VM?

[bleak ivy]

a what or a what?

its just a PC I have

[trim yew]

How much ram does that PC have?

[bleak ivy]

okay island is using 7GB

it just finished loading

it was using 3GB when I first started hositng tho

[trim yew]

There we go lol

[bleak ivy]

SE is still on 2GB tho

[trim yew]

No pics or links here

[bleak ivy]

my alt just died

yeah, no idea. maybe its just being nice to me 🤷

since the island is at 7GB its not a cap thats bringing it down.

[trim yew]

I'm trying to become a moderator 😁

[bleak ivy]

yeah, lol. so my scorched just likes me.

2.4gb now

[scenic osprey]

You host on windows? got my server running, but cant find it ingame. Even on the same pc....?

[bleak ivy]

are you on the same PC? make sure you are filtering right.

[elder fox]

Is there a way to disable certain commands on a Nitrado server? Like to allow admins to use commands, but not creative mode.

[bleak ivy]

same PC could have issues, try joining via IP.
Open IP:7777

[scenic osprey]

and same network?

[bleak ivy]

LAN shouldn't have any issues appearing. mine show both in the browser and transfer screen.

[scenic osprey]

Yeah cant find, even on same network, they are both on wifi on the same router.

[bleak ivy]

make sure you enabled "show player servers" and "show password servers" if you use one.

[scenic osprey]

tried al possibilities

[bleak ivy]

just gotta join through IP then. make sure there isn't a password set.

[mellow elk]

Any ideas on this? We have a backup from a couple days ago that works but any after that dont work... server restarted on its own earlier and doesnt work and only backup that works is 3 days old now. Nothing in log indicating error, just stuck in reboot loop now

[scenic osprey]

nothing

[bleak ivy]

is your server actually running? what does the console say?

[scenic osprey]

send it private

[bleak ivy]

it looks right maybe disable battleye.

[scenic osprey]

it should be disabled

[bleak ivy]

maybe remove the IP part and quary port.

I just put the 7777 port part

did you figure out why its happening?

[autumn condor]

Hi friends. Not sure if this is the right discord to ask in but my fiance is having an issue with audio when playing Ark and speaking through discord on his Xbox series X. We’ve done the unplug reset and the bluray reset. Randomly when he plays the audio will go really crackly. Whomever is listening to him on discord also hears his audio go crackly as well. And when it happens he usually can’t close the game, he has to fully turn off his Xbox and turn it back on again. Has anyone else had this issue? Thanks!!

[fleet solstice]

I have a problem, I probably turned something off in the options and now I can't see the light when the drops are supposed to fall. there is no light/ray that shows where the drop is.

[bleak ivy]

thats just something xbox has right now. the light settings being on low is the problem. gotta wait for a client update to change that.

[fleet solstice]

Thank you.

[turbid blade]

So we have been trying to set up an ark server since 2pm this afternoon and no server hosting has EVER been so painful for us.

We are setting up a server through Nitrado, and nothing has gone right, ESPECIALLY with the server actually showing up on the server list. We got it to come up and running after a overly painful server set up through the host where we actually had to wipe and restart (we didn't do anything incorrectly, it just wouldn't work. Their support also did nothing to help us so we decided to do it ourselves before requesting a refund if it came to that). We ended up having to take the server back down because the harvest rates were MESSED up.

But anyway... Why does it take 30+ minutes to show up if it does show up at all? And why does setting a password on our server cause it to break and get into reset loop. Taking the password off fixed it.

We are playing Windows 10 Crossplay + Steam

[radiant oracle]

Does anyone have suggestions for making disabling a large number of engrams in the ini easier?

[verbal schooner]

Our server is having continuous character losses apon crashing when transfering between asa scorched and Island. Is this happening to anyone else?

[inner adder]

ours is too. has to do with game crashng

[verbal schooner]

Have you found a fix?

or know of someone that has?

[inner adder]

No, ive asked a couple times

its almost entirely client side when it happens i think

[verbal schooner]

Its not our server crashing either its individual players T_T

[inner adder]

yeah

[verbal schooner]

dang we'll keep trying

[inner adder]

the best i can tell you is to not have any items on you when you transfer

keep that to a minimum

[verbal schooner]

We have the means to recover player saves but its getting annoying

[inner adder]

how do you do that?

[verbal schooner]

Our server owner does it, I help mod

Im hoping to find a fix

[inner adder]

is there any way i could ask you or your server owner how to do it

cause it just happened to my friend again the other night lmao

[hasty radish]

is there a list for the ASA scorched earth spawn entry containers anywhere? i'm trying to get the gigantoraptor to spawn on scorched earth on my dedicated server but the spawn entries from ASE don't seem to work, which makes sense. what i tried was "ConfigAddNPCSpawnEntriesContainer=(NPCSpawnEntriesContainerClassString="SE_DinoSpawnEntriesBadlands_C",NPCSpawnEntries=((AnEntryName="BigChicken", EntryWeight=1.0,NPCsToSpawnStrings=("gigantoraptor_Character_BP_C"))),NPCSpawnLimits=((NPCClassString="gigantoraptor_Character_BP_C", MaxPercentageOfDesiredNumToAllow=0.01)))"

[native wave]

they aren't listed on the wiki....just had to guess when I made a similar entry for the canyons

SE_DinoSpawnEntriesCanyons_C is accurate for SE for all but the easiest part of the canyons in the center of the map

this is the page I used to get that: https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Spawn_entries#ARK:_Survival_Evolved-0

[hasty radish]

so this line should work then?

[native wave]

that's the spawn container from ASE....but if that's not working then it must be something different

[hasty radish]

oh i see what you're saying

yeah i wish there was an easy way to find spawn containers in ASA

[native wave]

I used the canyon one from ASE and it happened to be the same

yeah looking to see if there's an admin command to list the spawn contianer info in the console or something

[hasty radish]

i'll try it with the canyon, thanks

it was a headache trying to find it anywhere, the only info i could find was spawn commands which wasn't what i was looking for

[native wave]

this was the code I used for the canyons

just make sure of all the () and ""

[hasty radish]

ah you need the path since it's modded?

not just the spawn string?

[native wave]

didn't try it without that, but that worked for me

[hasty radish]

thanks for your help

[native wave]

not a problem

[copper raft]

Anyone know the command for making crop plots not need sun

[rich agate]

How do I increase tribe tame limit?

i've got "MaxPersonalTamedDinos=2000?MaxTamedDinos=15000?" in my server start bat file.

then "MaxTamedDinos=15000
MaxTamedDinos_SoftTameLimit=5000" in my gameusersettings.ini

[jaunty vortex]

I no don’t think putting that in your startup will work. Unless you are on ASE?

MaxTamedDinos=15000
MaxPersonalTamedDinos=5000

I think these are what you want?

[rich agate]

I've just pasted it into my gameusersettings and it's worked

thanks for coming back to me

[raven wigeon]

is there any problem with the servers? i cant connect to my server, no1 can!!!

[jaunty vortex]

Looks like it

[wanton drift]

In ASA you need to reference the dino's full blueprinth path instead of just "xxxx_Character_BP_C"

[woven furnace]

Hi guys,
I have server on Nitrado and i want to had a message before my server restart like "the server will restart in 15 minutes " and have a countdown every 5 minutes anyone know the command line
Thank you in advance!

[worn fractal]

is there a setting to prevent unrendered stasis/hibernation?

my specific issue is, i left a tame (baby bronto) next to a wild theri to kill it off because i didnt want to do it my self, i flew away while it was getting attack and it was not until I came back into render the next day that the bronto was finally killed.

is there any setting to fix this?

[fair osprey]

If I wanted to start my own pvp cluster what is the price per month I’d probably end up paying?

[native wave]

couple hundred $ at least, depending on how many people you want to support

[copper raft]

Command for underground crop plots

[native wave]

Don't know of a command like that....tek crop plots allow for that though...but aren't in ASA yet

[wise kindle]

underground? wut

[native wave]

Without sun

[wise kindle]

Ok I was thinking some kind of meshed plots but that makes more sense.

[hearty elbow]

Does anyone know how to setup a chat linked to discord from the game? Is it difficult to do?

[jaunty vortex]

I’ve not seen anyone do this yet. It may need information from Wildcard on any API calls.

[hearty elbow]

It’s on a server I’ve played on, I want to help a new server I’m on do it, I’m on console and the chat is rubbish

[desert gate]

Is there a simple way to replace scorched dinos with like Island dinos? I have tried the command below and it removes pego's but doesn't add stegos.(I am running a server for small kids and trauma victims so I need to make a few changes while keeping the game fun)

NPCReplacements=(FromClassName="Pegomastax_Character_BP_C", ToClassName="DStego_Character_BP_C"

[jaunty vortex]

If you know the admin, can you ask them how they did it?

The ascension-bot on GitHub might do it, from a quick scan

[hearty elbow]

I don’t know them, but I did ask and all they said was they use GSA

Which I’ve no idea what that means and felt rude asking for more information as they seemed busy

[atomic night]

Hello , I am first time Ark player playing in single player , I was just wondering if the Easter event is over & if not how would I go about activating it.

[jaunty vortex]

I presume they mean GSM, which is a server manager. You can add to it to support different games. I’ve not used it myself.

[wise kindle]

This is best asked in #bobs-with-probs as this is the unofficial server setup channel.

[atomic night]

Thank you

[hearty elbow]

Ah okay, thank you for your replies! I’ll keep googling and see if I can find anything else out, I’ve become an admin for the server I’m on and I hate that I can’t chat and help ppl, I have to go to discord to tell someone else to chat for me 😅

[jaunty vortex]

You could buy a cheap usb keyboard? I did that for my nephew who is on Xbox.

I know the guy who writes the server manager I use is keen to integrate game chat into discord.

[hearty elbow]

It’s opening up the chat I’m struggling with I have to button bash so much, but the past few hours no matter what I’ve tried I cannot get the chat to pop up, I’d be willing to try it tho, don’t feel like a good admin if I can’t chat and help ppl

[jaunty vortex]

I think with the keyboard plugged in, you get the same options as on PC. So / should open a chat window. I’ll ask my nephew

[wise kindle]

You cant even type the word "the" in xbox right now.

[hearty elbow]

I know it sucks 😂 so much gets censored, I’ve wrote whole sentences that are completely censored, I can deal with that tho, even tho it’s frustrating and thank you John, that would be amazing if it works the same as PC

[jaunty vortex]

My nephew hits / on his keyboard to open the chat box and then types his message

[hearty elbow]

No way, oh that will be a game changer, literally. Thank you so much for your help!

[jaunty vortex]

It made his life easier just logging in with the passwords!

no, otherwise it would be to resource hungry. And you probably mean stasis. Stasis cannot be disabled, at least the range got a bit larger in comparison to ASE

[harsh condor]

Looking for anyone who has used the "Starter Mod Ascended" Mod. Have questions about setting it up since the mod page on curseforge has like...no information x__x

[fallen jolt]

Guys, is anyone else having a problem with losing a character in an unofficial transfer?

[harsh pilot]

@fallen jolt I pm’s you

Anyone else have there nitrado server restart as ark#……after daily restart and rollbacks aren’t solving the issue

[fallen jolt]

Ok

[nimble locust]

The wyverns on my steam server are very scarce and if I get them to follow me out the trench, they disappear. Has another else seen this on your servers.

[cinder sphinx]

faslo the torpor not going up is that a code issue or just game

[true estuary]

This happens to us on restart frequently. I just use Beacon and push the configuration back to the server and restart it.

[true estuary]

Wild Dino Wipe will fix this sometimes.

[grand cedar]

What is Beacon? I'm having this issue right now

[true estuary]

Beacon is a tool that helps you configure ypur Ark server. It is much easier to understand than the Nitrado web interface and it also shows you all of your options which you can't see in the web interface.

[cinder sphinx]

faslo the torpor not going up is that a code issue or just game

[harsh condor]

They changed it so you can't lure them out like in ASE. The "poof" back into the trench after they lose interest in you

[icy flicker]

Just looking to confirm where I enter this so I can have my server setup for cross platform. -ServerPlatform=ALL I currently have it in the Bat File and My Friend still cannot join

[radiant oracle]

Is there a way to alter max wild dino level without altering the difficulty setting?

[lapis drum]

I just rented a nitrado 3 day server but it won't start up it this a issue with ark or nitrado?

[trim yew]

did you try to contact nitrado support? when you started the server, how long did you wait for it to fully load? it can take time, especially on the 3 day purchase one may not get priority access

[lapis drum]

It's been restarting for 5 hours

[austere bone]

did you put any mods?

[lapis drum]

Just one the spyglass

[austere bone]

remove the spyglass and see if that does anything, if not contact their support. that's why they are there, to help with issues like that

[lapis drum]

Ok

[austere bone]

"shouldn't" take longer than 15-25 mins to roll up for the first time

[radiant oracle]

How do you set up a server to run a command on startup?

[native wave]

actually managed to get server status running for my servers using Gatus via the Pterodactyl API. And it alerts to my Discord...though the customization of those alerts leaves a lot to be desired.

[lapis quest]

Anyone else with problems with 50/50loc on The Island? It started a few days ago making the server ping high as heck

[celest halo]

Most people have had that issue over the years, also happened on ASE, not sure what the fix is if there is one

[fallen jolt]

Guys, is anyone else having a problem with losing a character in an unofficial transfer?

[lapis quest]

Yep, still happens once in a while

We r doing backups often for our players over here

[fallen jolt]

I can't download the character it appears to spawn him and when I click it says downloading

[lapis quest]

We have them on evolved aswell, but on asa is making the map unplayable (might be a coincidence idk), its been a week that our server is running on 350+ ms

[celest halo]

Oof, does admin rifle deleting everything there make it run better

[lapis quest]

Temporarily yes, but once you leave the area it starts to spawn wild dinos nonstop

I got a screenshot last night with over 100 wild dinos stuck on that position (dimorphos, argies, pteros)

[jaunty vortex]

Is 50/50 not the garbage collection location? Where Ark dumps everything it’s not sure about

[lapis quest]

Yes it is

But once that garbage is visible to players, it makes the server a lagfest

[lapis drum]

hi is it possible to change the amount of stats one level give for example right now weight goes up by 10 could i change that to 100

[native wave]

https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Server_configuration#Stats_related

Your answer is yes, yes you can

[lapis drum]

thanks

[plain jackal]

Running dedicated server from pc.. one day i changed my screen to a better one 4k. now when i start the server its teeny tiny text. anyone know how i make it bigger again.. ive already enlarged it in windows and that worked for ALL the rest of the net and pc stuff. just not this window.

[gritty raptor]

We got three maps all clustered via the code, we can travell and all that, but before travelling we have to upload everrything at an obelisk or a transmitter or a drop, if we dont do that our inventory gets cleared, and we cant travel directly, we have to upload our characters, how can we fix that?

[quasi slate]

yo im trying to add a shadowmane to the big valguero cave but for some reason theyre not spawning

ive added this:
ConfigAddNPCSpawnEntriesContainer=(NPCSpawnEntriesContainerClassString="VAL_TwitchBioWater",NPCSpawnEntries=((AnEntryName="shadowmanecave",EntryWeight=0.2,NPCsToSpawnStrings=("LionFishLion_Character_BP_C"))),NPCSpawnLimits=((NPCClassString="LionFishLion_Character_BP_C",MaxPercentageOfDesiredNumToAllow=0.05)))

am i missing something?

[native wave]

full name of that biome spawn container would be "VAL_DinoSpawnEntries_TwitchBioWater_C" @quasi slate

[night roost]

im trying to add this ip (ark.ethdom.com:7718) to my playservers on steam but it says its not right or something i wanna play on lost islands on this ip how do i fix this

its something bou the adress

[humble thicket]

anyone know the Fasolas blueprint path? i cant get the one i found to work

[native wave]

that's not an IP...that's a domain

try 74.204.80.18:7718 instead

but also, is this for ASE or ASA? If for ASE, and you're trying to add it to the game servers windows on Steam, you'll want to use the Query port, not the game port. If for ASA, stop trying, you won't be able to add an ASA server to the steam server browser, as it no longer uses the Steam API. It uses the EOS API

ah lost island, yeah, use the query port and the ip I typed above (replace 7718 with 27015 or whatever your query port is) and it should show up in the steam game server window

[night roost]

[regal locust]

Hey quick question, I set up a Server with my friend, the problem is we have the constant storm bug where the next Storm queues before the first is over, how do I solve this or turn off the Storms? 🥲

[olive talon]

No way to solve it or config to turn off storms, it's just an issue ingame. You can use commands to stop them for a few minutes.

[regal locust]

That´s bad but Thank you! Do you happen to know the Command for this?

[olive talon]

https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Console_commands#CE

[gritty raptor]

You seem to know about much, do you happen to know about my issues aswell?

[native wave]

do you have any kind of restrictions on transferring?

[gritty raptor]

No, none

It‘s the first time that happened to me, on all my other servers I had it set up the same way, only difference was I used the pregenerated crossarkid, this time I used a personalised one

[native wave]

so you have the 7 settings needed for that:
noTributeDownloads=False
PreventDownloadDinos=False
PreventDownloadItems=False
PreventDownloadSurvivors=False
PreventUploadDinos=False
PreventUploadItems=False
PreventUploadSurvivors=False

[gritty raptor]

Yeah

[native wave]

in the GUS.ini?

[gritty raptor]

Just checked again, they are the exact same in the GUS

[native wave]

have you seen the transfer files actually get put into the cluster folder?

I'm leaning to it more being some sort of permissions issue with reading/writing the files

[gritty raptor]

I honestly dont know how to check it since Im hosting that server via xbox

[quasi slate]

thank you

[native wave]

hosting the server on an xbox? not sure of the permissions involved on an xbox

[bleak ivy]

what do you mean hosting on an xbox? nitrado? or are you talking non-dedi?

[short eagle]

what difficulty setting would I need to see a max level of 160?

[bleak ivy]

whatever 160/30 is. *which pretty much means you can't.

[gritty raptor]

Me neither, but I feel like it‘s a rare bug tbh

[gritty raptor]

Yeah bought the server via my xbox on nitrado

[native wave]

do you manage it via your xbox? or do you have a login for the nitrado site?

[gritty raptor]

i manage it over the nitrado account linked to my xbox and phone so sorta both

[native wave]

and you're renting multiple servers through them and transferring between them?

[gritty raptor]

On my phone it‘s better for the ini tbh haha

[gritty raptor]

Well one Im renting to my console and account and two over the console of a friend
And transfers dont work at all

[native wave]

not sure if nitrado support linking servers on multiple accounts. All it should require is the same clusterid, but I don't know if you can link them. Normally clustered servers require a shared directoy where they can place the transfer files

[gritty raptor]

I linked servers before on multiple accounts and back then there was no problem

[native wave]

for instance, I used to run a cluster with a friend on ASE. We both ran servers locally (me in Michigan, he in New York), but we had to setup syncthing to sync the two directories between our computers

[gritty raptor]

But the problem is even between the two servers hosted on the account I dont have access to rn

[distant hearth]

nitrado to nitrado clustering is fine, they setup a shared folder for the main clusterid .

you cant cluster from say a nitrado server to your own pc though

[gritty raptor]

So the different accounts arent the problem?

[native wave]

then you'd probably need to talk to nitrado about why it's not working

[distant hearth]

differnt accounts never caused an issue in ase, since the process is same, i assume not an issue, but its ark....

check the filters on all the servers in the cluster, but i cant see that being a problem, its a weird issue

[wise kindle]

I dont know that cross account clustering is a thing in ASA. It would not surprise me if it wasnt. Alot of things changed when they went crossplatform.

[silk python]

How can I make a friend in ASA Admin and increase the tethering distance?

[humble thicket]

I put a setting in ark se, it means that the water and food does not decrease, how can I remove that?

[bleak ivy]

you can filter by platform.

[wise kindle]

Yes. But we dont know that Nitrado supports cross account clustering in ASA.

[distant hearth]

you changed theese two settings in game user setting.ini , switch them back to 1

PlayerCharacterWaterDrainMultiplier=1```

[bleak ivy]

thought nitrado says they have to be on the same account

[wise kindle]

But if you have information to the contrary for the guy above please help him out. He has been posting everywhere for days.

[distant hearth]

its a randome weird issue, if they can see each map from the obelisk, then the clusterid is fine,
they can transfer items via obelisk, so the shared folder is working fine

what they cant do is transfer with items on them.... weird if the above two work fine

[gritty raptor]

Ok, well I just bought another one on my account where I only had one and set it up, got a friend to test out if it works now, if not Ill text nitrado if it still doesnt work, thank you

[worn fractal]

What is the best s+ equivalent in ASA, I'm having trouble finding consensus.

[gritty raptor]

I already did, nothing somehow

[gritty raptor]

Well it‘s on ase anyways haha

[native wave]

I've been using Super Structures Ascended but it's development seems to have stalled out. They have plans to duplicate what they did for ASE...but only have the pullings plus tools done so far. The others I've seen have issues and haven't convinced me to switch yet

[worn fractal]

Yeah we had QoL+ and that too seems to have stalled

but they have no discord, i saw SS ascended at least had that

i suppose i can poke around

[native wave]

development on a lot of mods stalled with the lead up to Scorched and has only resumed with a few mods, very hit and miss right now

[humble thicket]

👍🏼 thanx 👍🏼

[distant hearth]

no problem, if u want slight boost set them at 0.8 , thats what i tend to use, still tricky when first start , not so annoyying once estabilished

[steady kettle]

Does anyone know how I can setup Nitrado or Beacon so that I don't have to put 'enablecheats' to become admin on my server? Is there something I can do to the backend that allows me to be admin as soon as I log in?

[olive talon]

Nitrado should have an admin whitelist in the settings, add your steam ID

[steady kettle]

What if I'm on xbox?

[olive talon]

Maybe your account ID?

[halcyon topaz]

My pc players keep getting a timeout issue. Sometimes killing them will fix it temporarily. Does anyone know of a permanent fix. They are us based and the server is uk based

[ashen trout]

Do you know if when we host a dedicated server on our PC it must be on 24/7? And do you know if this will damage the PC?

[distant hearth]

you can turn the server on an off as u please , generally its considered the server will just be on 24/7 for others to join but doesnt have to be

as for damaging pc, i have no idea what you mean by this , its just software that will run on it.

[ashen trout]

Okay i understand thx a lot .

[ashen trout]

And do you know un general how times we need to set in motion this software ?

[distant hearth]

you will have to install and setup the server an forward port etc needed, after that you can stop and start it when u want.
just like opening or closing any other program/software ...
google or youtube will have some guides on how to install it

[ashen trout]

Okay Thx 🙏🙏

[pseudo saddle]

Ok, need a little help, set AllowFlyerCarryPVE=True in my GUS.ini but still shows false in admin manager. Is the setting different in ASA?

[wise kindle]

I believe its bAllowFlyerCarryPVE=true. You can double check on the ark.wiki.org/ server configuration page

[native wave]

You can directly link the ark.wiki.gg links. One of the few allowed

[fringe hollow]

hey i setup a server on my pc

and i can join off my pc but me and my friends cant join on xbox

any ideas?

[wise kindle]

ASA?

[fringe hollow]

yea

[wise kindle]

Is crossplay enabled?

[fringe hollow]

how would i check

[wise kindle]

Or is this a non dedi ?

[fringe hollow]

its dedicated

[wise kindle]

You would need to add the correct line to the startup to allow for other platforms to join

[fringe hollow]

like on the start bat?

[wise kindle]

https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Server_configuration look up “-serverplatform=“ to see specifics

[wise kindle]

Yes

[fringe hollow]

i did -ServerPlatform=ALL

it doesnt seem to work

[earnest parrot]

My friend is trying to start up his own unofficial server but he doesn't know how to put in unlock all engrams on level up how does that work

[wise kindle]

Is your server showing up in the server list?

[fringe hollow]

yes

just fails to join on console

even switched it to -ServerPlatform=PC+XSX+WINGDK+PS5

still didnt work

[wise kindle]

You may have some port issues. What ports are forwarded and opened up in your firewall?

I dont selfhost, but if you list your port settings here someone will be able to troubleshoot the issue. Its the most common issue when selfhosting maps.

[fringe hollow]

ive port forwarded before and people have joined on their pc before

and i swore its worked on consoles even when i didnt add -ServerPlatform idk why its came to be a problem

[wise kindle]

If you think the issue lies elsewhere, go for it.

[waxen robin]

I do not use that start param at all on my server and we have multiple console players

[bleak ivy]

default is all platforms.

[waxen robin]

I am having issues with my cluster populating on the server list. Are we tracking any issues with the latest update ?

Been fine for 6 months. New issue for me.

Had 40 people on before I restarted them 2 hours ago to update to latest version

They still haven’t populated on the list.

[idle gorge]

anyone have any good settings to help babies grow within 30 min and imprint be somewhat possible? We have been playing around with the settings and doing drastic changes to try and get some improvement. Nothing seems to have an effect hardly

[dry scarab]

Lower the baby cuddle interval

[worthy mauve]

If you want all dino's to be breedable in under 30 mins a Mature speed of 500 and imprint period of 0.003 dodo's and quick dino's would only take 1 minute 51 seconds rex's and such would be 11 minutes 6 seconds and giga's would be 29 minutes 16 seconds all could be imprinted to 100%. Keep in mind you would have to perform imprints every 1 minute 26 seconds however so you would have to be on it the entire time on breeding with all possible wants in your inventory. I would suggest increasing your imprint amount multiplier as well to something like 2 because imprint windows will be super tight.

[jaunty vortex]

Look at Beacon. It calculates it for you

[ashen trout]

what is the cheapest server host with whom you can modify the settings? (xp x2...)

no need for too many slots we will be max5

[jaunty vortex]

Anyone other than Nitrado will give you that because you’ll be renting a server and then installing an Ark server yourself, which gives full control.

Nitrado have a monopoly on hosted Ark servers.

[ashen trout]

ok thx

[ashen trout]

I am on steam, can we play on undedied server with my ps5 friend ?

[ashen trout]

I bought a server from Nitrado about 2 hours ago, my friend can join it (PS5) but not me (Steam). However, I checked and the server allows all types of platforms. do you know why ? help me please

[astral crypt]

Can anyone help me? My Server keeps restarting and in the game Log it says:ERROR!!! FAtlasSaveManager::LoadOperationSql: SQL database is corrupt and the save game is compromised! Exiting...

[celest halo]

You have backups

[astral crypt]

if i click them the server loads them,says updating and then keeps restarting

[celest halo]

Might have to try an older one depending on when it got corrupt, or make a copy of the player profiles and remove them to see if it's a player profile or the world save that's corrupted

[astral crypt]

how do i delete one player profile?

[celest halo]

If using a hosting site probably have to do it through ftp, I selfhost so not fully sure with hosting sites

[plucky narwhal]

I'm getting very frustrated. I keep getting disconnected for the past week. Lost time out connection to host or the game just crashes in the middle of a boos. It needs to be fixed and I cannot find a way to talk to any of you guys

For the past hour she's got disconnected like six times and I keep dying thanks to getting disconnected

All I can do is stay in my freaking base

What is this base simulator?

[astral crypt]

still doesnt work, ive tried multiple backups, server backups and game backups, i use nitrado, and it just doesnt work. is this because of mods? or could this be because i used the savegame command and then shortly after shutdown the server

[astral crypt]

Thank you i think i fixed it

I set the setting i used start with backup, and used and older one

[late estuary]

Mod question - Is there any recommended type of mod load order, depending on type of mod?

Like dino additions before building structures, etc?

[olive talon]

Usually it's overhauls first, or content that changes graphical stuff. A fair few mods tell you "this must be first" or "clean and stackable"

[late estuary]

For sure - "this must come first" mods are always pretty clear about it. I more mean for the rest, that don't really state any particular spot matters. I know I've seen a general guideline list before. I'm wiping and restoring and thinking about switching my mod LO a little. Not sure if it'll matter though.

[olive talon]

Yeah unless it's specifically an overhaul (like primal chaos, or krakens better dinos), you're most likely fine to add them however. I usually do larger mods first and then smaller mods, if that helps.

[late estuary]

Yeah that's kind of what I was thinking too. I just have so many now... the more you add the more you seem to start wondering... or could just be me lol

[olive talon]

I think I only run like 11

[late estuary]

Geeze Im at 31 now lol

Grabbing ALL the additions ascended is partially to blame

Hey I Bought ARK LONG AGO and it was on my brother steam account, he isnt playing ark but is playing other games so I asked Him to share it with me so I dont need to buy it again, but when I try to log in I keep getting this errror '' Shared accounts cannot play on this server". How to fix it please?

I saw one fix was to add AllowSharedConnections=False in server settinngs in GAmeusersettings ark folder, I Did it but didnt help. Please help me fix this and play ARK on SERVERS

ASA I'm guessing?

[sleek pivot]

no evolved, im still installing asa and was gonna play around a bit on a modded server

[native wave]

You using the query port?

[sleek pivot]

i went onto steam then game servers and tried to add the ip from there

[native wave]

Right...you need to append :(Query Port)....after the ip....so like 123.123.123.123:27015

[sleek pivot]

yea i had that at the end of the ip still wasnt working

[native wave]

The something is up with your forwarding

Or is it a nitrado server?

[bleak ivy]

don't you put the other port after

I don't even remember anymore. ingame uses the other port

[native wave]

In the steam server browser you use the query port

[sleek pivot]

i dont believe it is

[bleak ivy]

if you have the other port, try connecting ingame using Open IP:port password

[sleek pivot]

i have tried probably 20 different servers all havent worked\

[bleak ivy]

its usually 7777 but sometimes different

[bleak ivy]

check battlemetrics to see if they are even online

i did that as well

Hello, is there a way to see the command “listalldinos” on console? I am having trouble trying to get acro to spawn on SE, and already tried a bunch of stuff

[wise kindle]

Only with Win10 or Steam afaik. You have to see the command line or be able to paste to a word processor to see the list.

[bleak ivy]

thats not a command

[bleak ivy]

its definitely not a setting.

@mental narwhal I would suggest using one of the dino finder mods.

[wise kindle]

I think he means listdinos

Doesnt work too well on consoles unfortunately

[hasty iris]

is there a way to increase the range of the
"shelter buff" im trying to breed multiple wyvrens but even with a ton of ac units a 10Lx10Wx6H room will not give the buff.

[lunar cloud]

Best to breed wyverns with standing torches, much easier and more effective than AC units. Fireplaces can also help

[round vale]

any time i try to join a server i get in and disconnect after 10-15 seconds anyone hjave a fix for this

[hasty iris]

very annoying when i have a sandstorm inside my house or thick fog. reee mechanics

[wise kindle]

Join the same map on single player, this loads the map into memory. Wait about 5 minutes, then exit to the MAIN MENU. Then join the Nitrado map.

[round vale]

thanks, do i have to move around the map or is just sitting there ok

[wise kindle]

Id run around but its more just waiting a bit to let the game load in the map fully. It should help you get past the login lag that likes to kick you back off again.

If that doesn’t work, you may need to have someone kill your character so you can respawn. Hopefully you dont have to do that tho.

[bleak ivy]

I don't see that command either

I know there is a command that does that. it saves to the log file which consoles can't see.

[wise kindle]

Cheat listdinos?

I use it all the time. Lists all dinos on the map.

[bleak ivy]

I don't see it on the wiki Lol

[wise kindle]

Try it. Its super handy for checking spawns.

[bleak ivy]

I use ASV, lets me see everything on the save

thats not a mod tho

[wise kindle]

Idk what that is. But this was what i been using since ase to check spawns. Lists all tamed and wild, as well as the sex and maturity (babies).

It exists. Honest. Built right into the game.

No lie.

[bleak ivy]

ark save visualizer. its essentially a better larkator if you know that.
lets you see everything that is on a save, from structures to dinos to dropped items

[bleak ivy]

probably just something missed. I see listplayers so just a version of that.

if it goes into the console then you just need a K&M for it to work on console.
if that mod that disables hibernation works that is probably need too.

this one doesn't give you the specifics that getallstate does

[wise kindle]

Its not on the wiki. It still works perfectly. It lists it in the command line and also auto copies it to clipboard. You can hit ~ to see the list or paste it to a text document. Not really a thing on console, even with a keyboard.

[bleak ivy]

if it goes into the console then you can use it there.

[wise kindle]

Where would you view or paste it?

[bleak ivy]

the console...

consoles support K&M

[wise kindle]

On win10 yes

[bleak ivy]

no, on consoles

you can plug in a K&M to an xbox and use it

[wise kindle]

I guess i need to see a console with the ~

[bleak ivy]

what

[wise kindle]

The command line

[bleak ivy]

you just need a full keyboard.

its the button under escape

[wise kindle]

Yes i get that, im saying i need to try it with a keyboard and have it honor ~

[bleak ivy]

~ is the shift version of the button btw. `

[wise kindle]

And bring up the pc command line

I get that… god nvm. I said i need to try ut

When i tried to hit ~ on a keyboard on my series X it did nothing before, you are saying this works now. Im saying I need to try it.

[bleak ivy]

fairly sure it worked in ASE as well

not sure why they would allow K&M support but specifically remove the console 🤷

[wise kindle]

Ok i get it.

[wanton hinge]

The ascension bot does indeed feed the in-game chat to discord webhooks. It also allows users to type in the specified channel and have their messages broadcasted to all servers automatically.

Is there anyway to disable the essence when dinos are killed?

or maybe only allow for the essence of the players dinos to be dropped. I did not realized that all players dinos drop essence

I’m on Nintendo Switch, Unofficial Nitrado server for ASE. Map is Extinction.

[tidal scroll]

Did the boss on scorched and when we loaded back in all the gear was gone. Is ark back to making you put everything in the Dino or is there a fix in Nitrado settings?

[sinful minnow]

Hey I Bought ARK LONG AGO and it was on my brother steam account, he isnt playing ark but is playing other games so I asked Him to share it with me so I dont need to buy it again, but when I try to log in I keep getting this errror '' Shared accounts cannot play on this server". How to fix it please?

I saw one fix was to add AllowSharedConnections=False in server settinngs in GAmeusersettings ark folder, I Did it but didnt help. Please help me fix this and play ARK on SERVERS

[daring compass]

anyone elses unofficial server stuck rebooting since the automatic restart?

[silk temple]

in non dedi, wat is the setting to make it so dinos breed faster? instead of 5h till they breed again i want it kinda instant

[peak sapphire]

Reduce the mating interval down to 0

[distant hearth]

iirc it wont accept 0 as that defaults it to 1, use like 0.0001

Hello everyone. Just picked up a Nitrado server for Survival Ascended and have it set to PvE. I'm trying to build near a cave but it won't allow me to place anything down. I'm not IN the cave, but outside of it. Anyone able to provide some insight how to correct this?

[distant hearth]

AllowCaveBuildingPvE=True

[mortal heath]

So that is just not inside the cave but in proximity as well?

Wasn't sure so thought I'd come to the best spot to ask. 🙂

[distant hearth]

yea , theres another aswell depending on the particular area you try to build, one sec i try find it

EnableExtraStructurePreventionVolumes=False

that one with cave building allows building almost anywhere, there is the odd exceptions

[mortal heath]

Ok, thanks for the advice. I'll add both to the settings.

[crystal plume]

Hi, I'm having issues with the voice chat not working on my server. Does anyone know how to fix this?

[distant hearth]

yea both go in game user setting ini, under [serversetting] header, if they are there change accordingly.
nitrado might have options to change them in there general settings, sry not familiar with asa nitrado general settings

[distant hearth]

GlobalVoiceChat=True

[mortal heath]

I didn't see them. I'll have to add them into the settings file. 🙂 Thanks again.

[crystal plume]

can i had proximity voice chat with it?

[distant hearth]

no problem, before adding, check they are not there and set wrong first 🙂

[mortal heath]

I know CaveBuilding isn't there. I searched for it earlier but wanted to confirm before adding it in.

[distant hearth]

hmmm , honestly i cant rem ,
try looking here an searching for chat to see what options there are ,

https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Server_configuration

[crystal plume]

yeah already done nothing seems relate to voice chat except GlobalVoicChat so i gonna try it ty

[scenic bloom]

is there a setting override to allow multiple tamed oasisaurs?

[distant hearth]

not that we know of yet,maybe they add that in at later date , prob not ....

[exotic glacier]

Hi, has anyone had the issue that when u crossark the island and scorched that your engram points go negitive after transfer? If anyone knows a fix that would be great.

[distant hearth]

usually it happens if you dont have all the same mods or settings across both servers

[exotic glacier]

ok ill work on that thanks

[warm knot]

hello, i have a problem on custom server, there are almost no wyvern spawns. i go into single player with the same mods installed and the trench is completely stacked with wyverns, i go on my server and the trench is nearly empty with just 2-3 spawning at a time. there are always 10-20 eggs spawning with some stacked into eachother but there is no challenge in getting them. I have wiped and restarted the server multiple times. is there any way to fix this? Also on the island there are considerably less spawns, is there any way to increase the Dinocountmultiplier past 1?

[reef idol]

can anyone help my server keeps instantly crashing and i dont know how to figure out whats crashing it

[quartz saffron]

Hello someone knows what is the maximum level in unofficial servers

Do we can change the level of the character

[warm knot]

had the same problem, fixed it by removing 2 mods that werent even serverside mods (bunny ears and Gnome).

[reef idol]

how'd you figure out what mods they were?

[warm knot]

removed the mods one by one untill the server started

[reef idol]

oh god thank you

[warm knot]

yeaa....

[tidal cosmos]

Hey guys, if one wants cannons to operate normally on platform saddles on their server but does not want turrets on quetzals and such how can they achieve that?

[spare raft]

Hello. My server keeps crashing on startup. It was running fine until 1 hour ago. There has been no update or modification... any idea?

"LowLevelFatalError [File:C:\j\workspace\RelB\Projects\ShooterGame\Source\ShooterGame\Private\ShooterEngine.cpp] [Line: 2187]
Not all mods were installed. Check the log for CFCore errors."

[distant hearth]

im hopeless with error codes but this part here wud have me verifying files and seeing if any of my mods recently had an update
Not all mods were installed. Check the log for CFCore errors.

i think CFCore = curseforgecore , i.e mod core files

[distant hearth]

i believe they shud work correctly with default settings, but there is a known bug with them that is yet to be fixed.
leaving render or relog often fixes cannons not shooting correctly from platform sassles

[spare raft]

Update server ?

[distant hearth]

verify files be my first step, i have my update command do verify aswell, so for me . i run my update batch file, it wont update as none availble , but it will then verify files .

likely not going to help you , as it seems a mod is causing the issue an they check for updates upon each server start , then download the updates if needed

[tidal cosmos]

Won't the default settings allow turrets anymore? That's what we want to avoid

[distant hearth]

by default turrets arent allowed on platform saddles afaik

[spare raft]

same ... my .bat is my update ^^

[tidal cosmos]

So they changed it? cause they were at the start of ASA but I haven't been on official in a while

[distant hearth]

that was just a typical wc fuckup, like the fact they allowed people from single playe to d/l to officials lolz

or the latest genius that i think is now fixed, lets block item downloads to a map, but give u 3 chibis from s.e ascension, yea they tested that well..... right

[reef idol]

for me it was a bunch of deimos mods

[mortal heath]

Looking for help on the baby food consumption. Our babies are eating so quick. When I turn the number down, does it slow it down?

[distant hearth]

Value type: float
Scales the speed that baby tames eat their food. A lower value decreases (by percentage) the food eaten by babies.```

info from , https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Server_configuration

[mortal heath]

Thank you. 🙂

[spare raft]

@distant hearth Its Garuga123 Mods 😢

Ceratosaurus : 920062

[distant hearth]

just the joys of mods :). there fun till they dont work right

[spare raft]

😢 Garuga mods !!! xD

[mortal heath]

Quick question. How does DinoCharacterFoodDrainMultiplier affect taming? I’m thinking of lowering this value. Will it slow down taming?

[native wave]

you want TamedDinoCharacterFoodDrainMultiplier, so it doesn't affect taming

[mortal heath]

Thank you.

Appreciate the help everyone!

We’re trying to slow down just the babies food consumption.

Does that work for them too?

[native wave]

for that you want BabyFoodConsumptionSpeedMultiplier

[mortal heath]

Thanks

[native wave]

no problem, both settings I use in my ini

[strange sequoia]

what does it mean when it says no subscription when i enetr the app id and how do i fix it

trying to host a ASA server

[late estuary]

So I did a wipe and restore yesterday and got stuck in a restart loop. Nitrado got back to me and I've resolved that and brought my server back online. But now I can't find it in the list, even searching by name. I think I'm missing something really dumb here. In my Nitrado General Settings, the "servername" no longer says what my server should be, it's now a generic "Ark #xxxx hosted by nitrado.net". Is this why I'm not seeing my server? Do I need to change this to... what it should be? lol

FWIW searching for that generic Ark #xxxx didn't find it either..

[distant hearth]

highly likely the name is its your issue, asa randomly likes to reset the ini files to default , prob set it to pvp an ure searching pve

[late estuary]

Good call, Ill check the PVP thing too.

[distant hearth]

to save headaches in future, have the filter set too "all" instead, as often if the serever is pve an u search pve it dont show, all is just guarantee less stress

[late estuary]

You were 100% correct on the PVP thing. Saving changes and then bringing server back up 🤞

Hmph. It made me remove the special character from my server password. That's dumb.

[distant hearth]

if u havent already copy paste the ini file txt into notepad on a local machine , that way you can easy replace it when it happens again

[late estuary]

Yeah I made backups before I started my wipe/restore

Any time I make ini changes I back them up to my computer

[distant hearth]

good move, id recomend ftp back up the save files too, rare u need them,but theres always that one time... lol

[late estuary]

Yeah I backed up the entire arksa folder lol

Need to do it a bit more often

[strange sequoia]

hey guys how do i fix the issua were you can Install an app id because it keeps saying no Subscription

[quaint tinsel]

Same issue with few wyverns, and they are dumb as well. You figure it out?

[patent grove]

Server will not boot up and just instantly crashed with Low LevelFatal Error, same as above member mentioned. Went through all the mods and removed 1 by 1, updated ect. still crashing upon boot. Started after the update today. Any ideas

also removed all mods, same, crash. Started up The Island server i have on a cluster on the same machine, works perfectly as it always has. Just SE that started crashing today.

[void vapor]

the same thing started to happen to me on both maps, after restarting the servers.

It's only happening with the official servers, svartaflheim is running without any problems!

[pseudo saddle]

anyone have a good recommendation of something similar to ark advance for ASA? mainly looking for better lighting, either no fuel or generator powered would be best, Thanks!

[timber stirrup]

anyone else having problems booting their server when they add mods?

[patent grove]

Anyone find a soulution to the LowLevelFatalError for not loading modss and server crashing on boot?

LowLevelFatalError [File:C:\j\workspace\RelB\Projects\ShooterGame\Source\ShooterGame\Private\ShooterGameInstance.cpp] [Line: 824]
Requested mods failed to load on server.

[clear bronze]

My server keeps crashing on startup

It basically intiilizes the mods but it doesn't aknowledge any of the game files. I'm not getting any errors. Nothing is just loading and it crashes before anything happens

"User context not loaded from disk" could have something to do with it although im not sure.

[spice tendon]

Does anyone have an ini code to spawn gigas on SE first asa? Normal replacement or adding does not work

[orchid geyser]

For some reason when I place a vacuum compartment, it isn’t letting me open it after I unlock it. It shows up red. What am I doing wrong?

[quaint elk]

hello is there not a command to allow crossark transfer of tribute items and trophies and element?

[drowsy current]

I changed the DifficultyOffset to 1.5 in my Fjordur dedicated server last time I played and I wasn't able to find Lvl 6 (Made OverrideOfficialDifficulty to 6 so max lvl is 180) Is it because of DifficultyOffset?

[cunning urchin]

i keep getting stuck with thunderstorms, can a server restart fix it? im not the host or anything but im just looking for solutions

[cloud remnant]

Can anyone point me in the direction of documentation on how to setup back ups when using windows server dedicated boxes to host the game?

[lunar cloud]

To backup you just run saveworld via RCON when your server has RCON port exposed. Then you can write a script to compress the saveworld folder (ark and profile files) and copy it somewhere.

[drowsy current]

anyone know why is that?

[wraith fulcrum]

Does anyone know why my players are disconnecting after transfering? Running a cluster on self hosted. When it was on nitrado there were no disconnects after transfer

[deep escarp]

Hello, yesterday I updated my servers. Following that my servers will crash almost immediately while still loading in the server client. I've checked the logs and the issues seems (I think) to be with KERNEL32.dll. I can post the entire crash log if someone wants to read/look at it. I've attempted to trouble shoot on my end. I'll happily take any suggestions. Thank you.

[fleet nebula]

this is happening to everyone using dedicated servers

[deep escarp]

Thanks for letting me know that I'm not the only one. Have a good day.

[celest halo]

What version is the server running, looks like last update for unofficial servers was 4 days ago

[native wave]

if you want the max level to be 180, just set the OverrideOfficialDifficulty to 6. DifficultyOffset works with the map difficulty value, which varies by map (and I don't know what value Fjordur sets that to). OverrideOfficialDifficulty should be overriding the Difficulty Offset, but it might be messing with the difficulty. You don't need Difficulty Offset if you have OverrideOfficialDifficulty set.

[deep escarp]

So i finnally just figured out the issue. (At lest for myself). It has something to do with the mod number 968943, which if i remember correctly was one that studio wildcard had on the front page/scroller of the game. It had something to do with adding colors to lights and stuff. ( I could be very wrong. But this seems to have fixed it on my end all of a sudden). Also current server that I have is 39.32

[celest halo]

That's the Games, Glam, and Guns (Sample) skins made by wild card 🤣

[drowsy current]

Yeah I was just asking if DifficultyOffset just messes with LVL 6 spawns since I haven't found one.

[native wave]

it shouldn't affect it if OverrideOfficialDifficulty is set....but since you have both settings I don't know for sure how each map will treat that

[serene agate]

Hi guys. I've been running a dedicated server on my PC for about 3 weeks now and all has gone well until now. Turned my PC on, tried launching my starttheisland.bat and it opens for about 3 seconds and then immediately closes.

[native wave]

from the wiki: "For consistency and clarity, it's generally recommended to use MaxDifficulty or OverrideOfficialDifficulty whenever possible. These settings directly set the final Difficulty value (to 5.0 or whatever is provided, respectively) with no variation between maps and no further calculation involved."

[deep escarp]

naturally it is.

[deep escarp]

So it seems to be something to do with mod number 968943. Or at least for me it was. Try removing that from your start batch file and see if that helps.

[serene agate]

I don't have that particular mod installed but I went ahead and removed all mods I had enabled, and that seems to have allowed it to launch. Thank you.

[deep escarp]

I’d try re-adding them one by one and see which one breaks the game. Let us know what you find out.

[serene agate]

Server launched successfully. Now, I did have the gigantoraptor mod enabled with 2 of them tamed, what happens to them when i uninstall the mod and then reinstall it? 😆

Gigantoraptor worked.
Dear Jane worked.
Gnome's early Tek Binoculars worked.
Krazy Cosmetics is the only one I have yet to add back.

100% Krazy Cosmetics is the issue.

[jaunty vortex]

As long as you don’t start the server with mods uninstalled and not set to install, you should be fine. You can empty the mods folder and then start it so they reinstall, for example.

[stiff tulip]

has anyone looted any ascendant desert armor BP's? if so where? cave drops or surface? the drops on my server are awful, i'm getting stone and arrows most of the time.

I"m pretty sure there's not an INI setting for loot specificily (just the overall difficulty setting) so maybe i'm missing something?

[native wave]

I got some early on from purple through red surface drops....but the loot quality decreased at some point

[stiff tulip]

is there a way to increase the quality without increasing the dino levels? without something like beacon I mean?

[native wave]

SupplyCrateLootQualityMultiplier

I saw a change early on with the quality of the loot drops...still pretty high but it definitely dropped from launch on scorched

[serene agate]

I definitely started it with the mod uninstalled because I needed to see if it would start without mods installed. I reinstalled gigantoraptor and did a backup from last night. Hoping this will restore them. But honestly I'll take losing the gigantoraptor over my server

[stiff tulip]

I might just need to setup beacon. I really don't want better loot from everything in truth, I just want SE specific items to actually drop. right now they're just not on my server. from any drops. since SE launched, i've been on the map every day, and some days for copious hours, I've done all the stuff, tamed all the things, and I have a total of 4 desert armor BPs, 3 blue, 1 purp. I have maybe 10 desert armor Items, and zero... ZERO flame throwers, chainsaws, boomerangs, etc...

[olive talon]

I got one flamethrower from a desert drop, that's it though

[native wave]

the problem is....the loot table for those drops include stuff not needed on SE....like sap taps....a lot of armor that isn't real useful in the heat....etc

instead of being specialized for the map, they are generalized for everything in the game.

[stiff tulip]

well, we're basically done with the meat of the map for the most part. we'll keep it in the cluster cause 1) it's the only other official map, and 2) it is a fun, well designed map. but my peeps are a bit tired of not getting any actual map specific drop items.

[native wave]

I get scorched stuff regularly...but also a lot of island stuff like fur armor even

[olive talon]

I've gotten a lot of small scorched stuff, like cactus broth and oil jars. The actual scorched gear is difficult.

[stiff tulip]

I don't know their specific results, but mine are paltry at best. and I don't know how to increase the chances of map specific loot without seting up beacon, which i've forgotten how to do it's been so long since I used it.

also... I"m not using nitrado, I"m self hosting a DedServ cluster so I think beacon is a bit less easy to use in that regard if my info is up to date.

[native wave]

you'd have to modify the loot table for those drops, which gets really fiddly and I would bet some of those settings from ASE don't work on ASA yet

[jaunty vortex]

If you restored from an older backup you’ll be fine then.

[olive talon]

You can just copy and paste the files over, it's not difficult

[stiff tulip]

SupplyCrateLootQualityMultiplier <--- Just to confirm, this just increases the quality of the items you find in the drops, not the quantity?

[warm knot]

sadly not

[karmic gust]

hey, i'm running an unofficial survival ascended server, after restarting the server yesterday i got the message, that one of the mods isn't installed right. After some testing i found the mod. a friend of mine doesn't has the problem with the mod. So how can i force a redownload and reinstall of the mod from curseforge because simply deleting the corresponding folder from the mods folder inside the serverfiles didn't work?

[serene agate]

Unfortunately no. I restored from last night and gigantoraptor mod is installed again and my gigantoraptors are gone. Unfortunately. But it's not a big deal.

[deep escarp]

Do you know which mod it is?

[karmic gust]

"Klinger Additional Skin Cosmetics Rustic GreenHouse" ID 974416

[deep escarp]

So farther up in this mornings thread, John T Angle suggested to DeadChamber to go in and emptying out the mods folder so that they re-install. Maybe try that?

[karmic gust]

Tried it yesterday but with no luck, but going to try it again later, maybe it reinstalls after a daychange.

that's also why i asked if there is a way to force a redownload, maybe some cached files are corrupt or somthing

[celest halo]

can try in game Redownloadmodsonstart think that is the command they added to force a redownload of mods on server restart might need cheat infront of it

[jaunty vortex]

It’s something I do when there’s a new version of a mod.

But I also backup every 15 minutes.

[midnight perch]

is this entry in ini files ok to lower vulture spawn on scorched?

DinoSpawnWeightMultipliers=(DinoNameTag=”Vulture_Character_BP_C",SpawnWeightMultiplier=0.25,OverrideSpawnLimitPercentage=true,SpawnLimitPercentage=0.5)

[cloud remnant]

thanks I will set something up with windows scheduler!

[fossil onyx]

Are a lot of mods broken at the moment which in turn is stopping dedicateds from loading properly?

[native wave]

a lot of mods haven't been updated since like December or so....when we started to get into a content drought. modders stopped modding and updating. Some are coming back and updating, some aren't. I know Legends, the modder for Super Structures Ascended, took some time off and is planning to come back in May. It is wise to check in on the mods you run to make sure they are being actively updated. If shit breaks, it's likely because the mod hasn't been updated in a while.

[cloud remnant]

have a list of mods and server running fine

[fossil onyx]

All of them were working this morning lost power and now server wont start

[cloud remnant]

probably a corrupt back up

[fossil onyx]

even if i load a fresh no save world data, just stops out on like 5 or 6 mods

[cloud remnant]

erase all the mods

and let them reinstall on boot

[fossil onyx]

done that as well

gryphon, heliocorp, brachio are 3 known issues

[cloud remnant]

you deleted the mod directory?
I don't run those 3 :\

[fossil onyx]

i did indeed will try again

does deleting mods and the other folder lose your data ?

[cloud remnant]

deleting the mod folder is not the same as deleting the mod data.

it saves it in a diff directory (the mod data)

you dont do routine back ups you can restore from? (ie entire directory back up/restore)

[fossil onyx]

loaded that and it did the same thing on a fresh vm spin up

and i even tried a month old backup as well

[karmic gust]

Haven't tried it yet but tried adding the mod back into the mod list and still no serverstart with the mod but looked at the logs again and it doesn't seem to get registered to install it. But it is in the startup -mods=xxx,xxx list 🤔

[cloud remnant]

run the steamcmd updater/validate

[fossil onyx]

So deleting ShooterGame\Binaries\Win64\ShooterGame\Mods & is ShooterGame\Binaries\Win64\ShooterGame\ModsUserData safe as well?

[fleet nebula]

i managed to fix my servers by deleting this mod: 974416

[short eagle]

Is there a way to make the game remember which engrams you have disabled? I've noticed that it keeps resetting every time I re-launch the game

[strange sequoia]

Hey guys how do I fix the issue were it says the app I'd is wrong?

It keeps saying app Id failed to load

[bold widget]

Is anyone else having problems with using game.ini files they don't apply for me

[jaunty vortex]

I'd be wary with the mod user data

[compact forge]

How to open ports on Hetzner? 🤔

[misty robin]

This might be a dumb question, but does having a higher spawn level for wild dino’s cause lag on a server?

[peak sapphire]

Never noticed a difference

[compact forge]

@distant hearthAre you using Hetzner?

[olive pecan]

World temperate is too high all the time
I get it, im in a swampier area, it is not 52C indoors. Thats like 125f, it is NOT 125f right now. I cant do anything because im dying of heat stroke, cant leave because ill die before i escape the pre-heating oven temperatures and all my stuff is still here, cant stay because even indoors im dying of heat stroke. Cant tame a mount that reduces temperature because i just started so i dont have the capacity to do that, not to mention, again, dying of heat stroke.

Ive had to dump basically all of my points into fortitude to try and survive, but no, too hot still.

Is there a console command that can lower the max world temp by a few degrees or something? because i cant stop dying due to the heat.

[compact forge]

There is no console command for that. Build adobe house 100% (foundations,walls and ceilings/roof). Use ghillie suit or desert. Better give better protection for heatwaves.

[olive talon]

You can also increase fortitude, though it doesn't help a ton

[compact forge]

I have 52 and it does not help 😄

[peak sapphire]

Just make fortitude go up 5 points per level instead of 2. The sweet spot to not die is around 160 fort so it’s up to you whether you want to continue wasting points or enjoy the game more.

[livid valve]

Hey guys ! Is it possible to make storms less frequent?

[peak sapphire]

No but possibly coming with a future patch

[hot crater]

Hey! I’m running an unofficial server and suddenly it starts to restart the server and it keeps restarting nonstop… I’ve no idea what is happening. Does anyone have the same problem? Can it be the mods? Help 😭

[reef idol]

I'm unable to place modded items in my server but im able to place them on singleplayer any fixes?

[lunar cloud]

if its crashing its most likely mods

[hot crater]

Thanks, I’ll try to uninstall them…

Hopefully it won’t break the map

[steady kettle]

The 50/50 glitch is terrible
