What hardware are y’all using to host? I’m looking into getting a server to host all maps when released but not certain of the requirements other than core count/ddr4 ram size. I’ve seen some things say 3ghz+ for CPU but I’m not dropping 10k on a new threadripper build. I’m currently renting a VPS with 2.6ghz and seems to work fine but not sure how many players it’ll support

[gray gulch]

We rent a Root Server by a German Hoster. Xeon Precessor and 256GB Ram DDR4

[wraith jewel]

What’s the processor speed? How many players? Any lag?

[gray gulch]

we have a Xeon CPU E5-1650 V3 3.50GHz

[distant hearth]

asa is more ram heavy than anything, but you are going to have to balance on how many people will be on the maps . Id

[native wave]

HP Proliant DL380p Gen8 2x Intel Xeon E5-2697v2 2.7Ghz 384GB of DDR3
Purchased it from a local electronics recycler that does business on Ebay
There was some lag playing on Gen 2 on ASE originally, but all other maps I've run have run well. No more than 5 people on at a time though

hoping the improvements in UE5 will help with the lag on Gen 2

already thinking about getting another server for games that require more single core speed than my current one has

such as Space Engineers

[glad flax]

Same

[winged cosmos]

Im having a problem moving my Ark:SE world save from my windows dedicated server to a linux dedicated server anyone else ever have issues with this?

[gray gulch]

We had no problems with save games when moving from Nitrado to our host

[glad flax]

I’m attempting to build a server machine. My old Asus g752 has almost had it

[wraith jewel]

Leaning toward 2x gold 6154s but may be overkill. The E5-2697a may work well too

[native wave]

what I have setup is something I've wanted to do for a while. For a while I've been hosting off of my local machines (towers using my old hardware) in my office. I setup pterodactyl because it allows me to do exactly what I wanted.....spin up whatever server I want to run at any point in time. So I have ASE servers setup, Stationeers, Satisfactory, Conan, alongside ASA. I tried to run Space Engineers but because of the physics it requires a bit more horsepower in the CPU per core

[distant hearth]

scroll up a bit , i give the correct batch file to update an verify steamCMD server , just change the locations to where your installs are ,
be aware you just point it at the install folder not the actual .exe like you wud to run the server start batch file

[gray gulch]

I sent him my batch file. If you want I can send it to you too. It has some extras e.g. Check Firewall and Add Firewall Rules, Check for Updates and it has a crash routine

[glad flax]

Oh that would be great. Haven’t had any issues until this update so I thought all my stuff was good to go lol.

[halcyon topaz]

This update makes no sense. I have 3 servers. All run the same mods and yet I can only get one server to come up and stay online.

[gray gulch]

i fixed the Problem by our server´s

2 Mods made Problems

[quaint elk]

i have 6 different servers and none will stay up

[gray gulch]

MOD: Prehistoric Beasts and MOD: Colossuscorpius

[distant hearth]

how to fix crashing server^

just make sure to backup the save files

[wraith jewel]

I’d be interested to see the code for that. I made a server recovery ps1 script that dynamically scans active servers and restores them if they crash. And another that scans ark for updates and runs scripts to start update protocols

[native wave]

mine are setup to update on reboot. so they won't update until the daily reboot unless I initiate it. allows me more control over the process

[distant hearth]

im old, i like manual, plus im dumb an cant make the scripts to do auto lolz.
with the amount dodgy updates they push out i prefer manual, dont want there half assed minor updates most time

it takes like less than 30 seconds to close server and double click the update batch file , make a coffee or two while it updates then restart server

[wraith jewel]

I execute mine manually ATM because ark is a hot mess but task scheduler could just as easily do it. My script looks at the web xml which has the version info. If it changes, it rcon commands the countdown, doexit, update scripts and reboots the server

[gray gulch]

My script checks whether the task is still running and if it is no longer there, the script restarts the server

[halcyon topaz]

The scorpion mod is working on one of my servers while 2 are down. The mods arnt the issue its wildcard. Only suggestion is to tell nitrado straight you deserve compensation they are happy to charge you but don’t hold wildcard responsible you deserve added time

[gray gulch]

on our SE map it makes Problem

[gray gulch]

We don't have ARK servers at Nitrado!! That's why it's unnecessary to report the Nitrado!

[halcyon topaz]

Fair enough most people do

[wraith jewel]

Anyone know why starting servers as background processes only use 1/10 of the system resources that they normally use?

And is there any downside

[native wave]

probably has an effect on the priority the server is given in using resources. so might see more lag if it needs more it doesn't already have

that is a guess. haven't really dove that far into windows server management

[wraith jewel]

That’s the thing though, it hasn’t. Been running them this way via task scheduler for a couple months now and had no issues. Even my server recovery script is a background process and keeps the servers running completely in background

It’s a windows thing. With task scheduling, if you set your start scripts to run on system boot with out requiring a login it starts them in the background
Island for example uses 2gb of ram

[distant hearth]

if it works it works, i suspect they just use more resources as they need it, windows is pretty good at allocating ram useage to what needs it an giving more to what doesnt then reallocating as required

[gray gulch]

My The Island Server with 24 Mods use 13GB RAM^^

[distant hearth]

you will hear people moan like fuck windows uses alot ram, but it actually just uses as much as it can then reallocates if required in other places

no point in havig ram sat there unused right

[tired basalt]

People are having issues connecting via IP to my nitrado server? The server shows the correct IP when favourited but when you try and add that exact IP in game servers, steam says no server with that adress?

[distant hearth]

nitrado are funny with there ports , or were with ase, u had to use the ip adress then th port from next line down, i think it was listed as gameport. but you shudnt need to connect that way

[pliant fog]

Does anyone know if we can safely remove the Cerato and Xipha mod without losing the ones we already tamed from it?

[halcyon topaz]

Can anyone confirm this latest patch actually fixed modded nitrado servers

[olive talon]

No, those are still modded creatures, they need the mod. The vanilla counterparts are separate.

[pliant fog]

Okay, thank you

[halcyon basin]

nitrado hasn't releases the update yet so we don't know 100% yet (according to what i understood). The update should be available soon i think?

[distant hearth]

its out for steamCMD servers so u can just hope nitrado gets on it asap

[halcyon topaz]

Great if it’s not one company it’s the other and I’m getting a headache from players asking when imma fix it haha

[distant hearth]

ask them if they want maps with no mods.... bet most of them shut up an accept there will be issues around major updates

[halcyon topaz]

True that

[distant hearth]

when i ran alot ase servers , one was unmodded, that kept people happy whilst they waited on mod maps to get fixed, actually worked out well but i get it wont please everyone

[halcyon basin]

on the cluster im playing on, island and svartalfheim are down. scorched earth is still up but i emptied all my stuff from my se base yesterday and moved to island 💀 i have no tames or loot on se. my character is blocked on island

[distant hearth]

yea , we call that "sods law" in the uk
just typical it happens that way

[chilly fox]

yo my servers still down

Can't post a picture but they are still on re-start loop

OH SH they just went online

[tired basalt]

the gameport is just 4 numbers

[wild dome]

thats weird cuz we removed gigantoraptor from our mods when it was added to base game but they were still on our server tamed for those that had them

[olive talon]

The gigantoraptor was always going to be added to the base game, Wildcard implemented it that way. Adding AA creatures as a vanilla counterpart to the mod creatures is different.

[wild dome]

so if they were to add acro to the game, would we need to continue using the mod for our acros?

[silver dragon]

after the 43.8 update this morning my servers wont start unless i remove the mods from them

[olive talon]

Unless stated otherwise by Wildcard or Garuga, yes. It is a mod creature, not the changed vanilla counterpart that Wildcard is implementing.

[wild dome]

got it

[pseudo saddle]

both my servers keep crashing, thought I found a mod out of date, and one of my two stayed online, but then crashed again

[drowsy arrow]

Is there a general consensus as to which mods might be causing issues yet?

[rose frigate]

Update your server. It should be fixed.

#patch-notes message

[halcyon topaz]

Anyone else svart map not working?? I managed to get the other 2 working but not that one. They all run the same@mods tho

[glad flax]

My cluster still isn’t rolling to 43

[grave shale]

hellooo ive been trying to run my own dedicated server from a laptop with 16gigs ram, i tried doing it on my own with port forwarding and allowing it through the firewall, didn't work no matter what so i tried WindowsGSM, but still nothing. Console says the server is up and running fine and its utilizing my memory and cpu but I can't join it even as a host :( any ideas ?

i followed the tutorial by troublechute too ^^

[glad flax]

Sorry friend. I’m having my own issues. I followed troublechutes guide and everything worked. Until this last update

[sacred kestrel]

Does anyone know if setting a tribe limit will effect established tribes

[elder plover]

dumb suggestion have you made sure to tick "show player servers" on the server list in game?

[elder plover]

one thing you may wanna do going forward though is to disable the spawns for the modded version or else your likely to end up with double spawns

[wild dome]

Noted

[grave shale]

yep :) can't even join using the 'open ip:7777' command

[grave shale]

same problem? does it say its running but it's like it doesnt exist ?

[elder plover]

when you say join it as a host are you running the client on the same laptop as the server or just another PC on the same local network?

[grave shale]

both, cant join from the laptop or my main PC on the same local network

when i made the server on my own, i got a blank screen joining which at least was something... windowsgsm just nothin happens

[elder plover]

I've been using asadedicatedmanager for my ASA servers might be worth giving that a shot, if you want send me a DM with your console showing it running and ill let you know if it looks right to me

[grave shale]

thanks for your help :) ill send that over to you when i can

[humble thicket]

how can i mod my server im trying to add a way where u get 10x loot

[glad flax]

Getting this error while I’m trying to update: app '2430936' state is 0x226 after update. Anybody know a quick fix? I googled but can’t find this error code specifically

[distant hearth]

im going to dm you a guide on setting up steamCMD servers for asa ,
its a in a notepad file and im not really the best at explaining things .
but it 100% works many have used it get servers working, u just need a bit patience to read it and understand basic windows file paths .
From it you can figure out your issues, id say a good 80% of the guides on the internet are wrong entirely or using old ase commands

[humble thicket]

how can i make it so the animals are higher level and u can gain more loot faster

what setting in nitrado do I change to decrese the cuddle interal so it come sooner??

[distant hearth]

BabyCuddleIntervalMultiplier Default value: 1.0
Value type: float
Scales how often babies needs attention for imprinting. More often means you'll need to cuddle with them more frequently to gain Imprinting Quality. Scales according to BabyMatureSpeedMultiplier: if both set at 1.0 the imprint request is every 8 hours.
info from https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Server_configuration

[distant hearth]

higher level dinos is done with
OverrideOfficialDifficulty Default value: 0.0
Value type: float
Allows you to override the default server difficulty level of 4 with 5 to match the new official server difficulty level. Default value of 0.0 disables the override. A value of 5.0 will allow common creatures to spawn up to level 150. Originally (247.95) available only as command line option.
info from https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Server_configuration

[distant hearth]

gonna dm u a guide on setting up asa server too, alot the ones on internet are just wrong , server shows running but isnt joinable .

[humble thicket]

what about the loot being higher like instead of getting 1 wood each time

[distant hearth]

thats just the harvest mutiplier

[native wave]

harvest amount and harvest health

[distant hearth]

HarvestAmountMultiplier Default value: 1.0
Value type: float
Specifies the scaling factor for yields from all harvesting activities (chopping down trees, picking berries, carving carcasses, mining rocks, etc.). Higher values increase the amount of materials harvested with each strike.

leave the health alone imho, until u understand what it does

[distant hearth]

is it you that uses diskdrive memory to make up for less ram ?

[native wave]

basically the higher you set the health....the more hits it takes to get the total amount of harvest you get

[native wave]

no

[distant hearth]

ah sry, i cant rem who it was , im worse than a gold fish

[native wave]

hehe

[distant hearth]

i wanted to look into it more, they was using disk memory as a virtual ram , i just forgot to ask them how

[humble thicket]

do i put the stuff in the user settings?

[distant hearth]

depends on the setting, some go in gameusersetting.ini, some in game.ini

[humble thicket]

i be changing whats put in the game settings but that dont change anything

[distant hearth]

to change any settings on server , first must shut it down , wait a min, preferably 10 if on nitrado, make changes, save it , then restart server

[humble thicket]

so if i dont do that it wont work at all?

[distant hearth]

if the server isnt shut down, no changes will take effect

it shud also be noted some changes wont take effect with items already in the worold that have a timer

until the timer is run down

[obtuse stone]

he's struggling to comprehend your knowledge

[humble thicket]

okay didnt have to do me like that

[distant hearth]

sry i apologize for that, i really struggle to explain things, so try to make it basic as i can

[obtuse stone]

you have to go a bit lower then basic for him

[humble thicket]

okay

okay dont gotta make me seem like i have a brain of a bean

[distant hearth]

running servers aint easy, took my dumb arse years to figure it out

[humble thicket]

yeah i can see that its hard just to set it up and make it actually work

even enabling cheats doesnt work

[obtuse stone]

Were just tryna set up a 2 player server since already unoffical servers have hidden traps everywhere and it's a struggle to do anything

[distant hearth]

yea for sure , theres two tools that make it a lot easyer ,
this website https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Server_configuration
and ark beacon omni app/program, the free version of it does hell of a lot

[distant hearth]

cheats on a server you need to have an admin password set then use

cheat whatevercheatyouwanttouse```

[humble thicket]

see i did that but nothing happens

[distant hearth]

i tend to use cheat gcm first as i know its working then , anytime it doesmt is always a password issue

i.eenablecheats youradminpassword cheat gcm

if that doesnt work i knoiw its a password issue

if your setting the password via start batch file it must be the last ? command in the file

[humble thicket]

yo @distant hearth can i dm u

[distant hearth]

you can , but it late here , so i might take a while for a response sometimes

[humble thicket]

thats fine

[grave shale]

thank you that would be very helpful

[livid reef]

anyone know how to send a serverchat that appears like standard chat?

[quiet plaza]

hey, seeing if anyone can help but me and my friends have a weird issue, we will play anywhere from 3-10min on PC and Xbox on scorched earth and it will close the game and give a "Unhandled Exception: EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION"

(were running the game pass version of the game)

[livid reef]

is the server up to date after today's update?

[quiet plaza]

yes

[magic epoch]

so is it possible to switch from nitrado server to a self hosted server and keep everything?

[wraith jewel]

yes

your save files contain your data

[magic epoch]

thank you!! just wanted to confirm before we made the switch

[upbeat beacon]

How do I backup my Main Ark Data to keep a whole save I can reboot to? Our server is wanting to join Survive the Night when it releases on console on new characters. We then want to come back from that when The Center is out on our current characters.

[lunar cloud]

in the map save directory you can just zip up everything.
The main files are .ark , .arkprofile , .profilebak , .arktribe , .tribebak , .arktributetribe
Those are all the file extensions i backup and save to cloud storage regularly every few hours.
I restore my servers regularly and works a charm

[jaunty vortex]

I tweaked mine to not backup the autosaves, or my saved zip was getting too big

I have it run every 15 minutes and nightly it backs that folder up to my NAS

[sharp bone]

In a LAN dedicated server How do u add like hatch speed? for like breeding and the AllowDeprecatedStructures=true command?

[jaunty vortex]

in the gameusersettings.ini and game.ini files

[stiff onyx]

Hello, yesterday i solve my problem but now i have new one

[stiff onyx]

When i go to join to the server ark fall down and close the app

[sharp bone]

So it should work?

[jaunty vortex]

yes, just looking for the settings for you

[sharp bone]

Like even if i put new commands in the game.ini file which is located at \ShooterGame\Saved\Config\WindowsServer

this should also count in the LAN server?

cause i added the AllowDeprecatedStructures=true command in the DefaultGameuserSettings but it didnt work

[jaunty vortex]

needs to be in the server ini files, not on your game

[sharp bone]

wait wheres that?

[jaunty vortex]

Pretty much the same path. You are running a dedicated server?

[sharp bone]

LAN dedicated server

[sharp bone]

Im gonna guess this is for single player? \ShooterGame\Saved\Config\WindowsServer

[turbid tulip]

Hello, I'm setting up a Primal Fear 100x server using my PC with Ark Server Manager. Could anyone help me with the correct values for GUS and Game.ini ?

[sharp bone]

cause im confused if it would even work

[jaunty vortex]

where ever you installed server, follow this path
\ShooterGame\Saved\Config\WindowsServer
Game.ini and GameUserSettings.ini should be in there

[sharp bone]

Ok

[stiff onyx]

Pls

[turbid kernel]

I think this is essentially a CPU problem. Try to remove unimportant modes

[rose frigate]

i can help you in your native language. Puedo ayudar en español.

[rose frigate]

envíame mensaje privado.

[turbid kernel]

if the server is nitrado server, go check the dashboard in nitrado website and take screenshot if you can.

[rose frigate]

we can't post links, files, or photos here.

which is dumb. toubleshooting requires files and photos sometimes.

[turbid kernel]

Alright then, if the CPU showing no value, thats mean you need to remove some mods, mods right now glitching on console so bad

[rose frigate]

they should just have an automod that detects nudity in photos and blacklisted words.

[rose frigate]

Hey, seriously, sometimes, you get someone that has no idea what you're talking about, and you need a photo of what they're looking at to help explain it...

[jaunty vortex]

I had to go in a screen share with one of my server mates to track down an issue. Sometimes words just are not enough.

[rose frigate]

agreed.

[tired basalt]

"NPCReplacements=(FromClassName="Gacha_Character_BP_C",ToClassName="CrystalWyvern_Character_BP_Base_C")" why does this not work?

[rose frigate]

where are you trying to use it?

[rose frigate]

NPCReplacements=(FromClassName="Gacha_Character_BP",ToClassName="CrystalWyvern_Character_BP_Base_C") put this in your game.ini

[tired basalt]

fjordur

[rose frigate]

sorry, should've given more detail. i meant which file. game.ini or gameusersettings.ini, but follow the instructions in my previous message and it should work.

do the ASE draconic chronicles wyverns not spawn on fjordur?

[rose frigate]

CrystalWyvern_Character_BP_Base_C is the draconic chronicles crystal wyvern, this is what you are trying to accomplish, correct?

[tired basalt]

oh uh im just trying to get the normal one

but i tested it and gachas still spawn

[rose frigate]

yeah, it'll null out with a non-existent character BP.

NPCReplacements=(FromClassName="Gacha_Character_BP_C",ToClassName="CrystalWyvern_Character_BP_C")

[rose frigate]

it throws a silent error and ignores the code if given an incorrect BP. however Gacha_Character_BP_C was correct my bad.

[tired basalt]

ok thank you

[rose frigate]

make sure you put it in game.ini

[tired basalt]

if i replace gachas do i need to replace the spawn rate of gachas or what i change it with?

[rose frigate]

DinoSpawnWeightMultipliers=(DinoNameTag="CrystalWyvern_Character_BP_C",SpawnWeightMultiplier=1.0,OverrideSpawnLimitPercentage=false,SpawnLimitPercentage=1.0)

you can put that in game.ini as well to adjust the spawn rates. change overridespawnlimitpercentage to true then spawn limitpercentage lower numbers reduces maximum spawned counts and vice versa. spawn weight just increases the likelyhood of spawn in the specific container, which will have no effect if they are the only creature spawning in the spawn container, but if other things are spawning there, you may block other things from spawning if you turn it up too high.

[tired basalt]

capitalised or not for the "true"

[rose frigate]

personal preference.

it will read it either way.

Really appreciate this can you tell me how you found this out

[compact goblet]

For ASA are the new dinos baked into the game or do we need to install a mod?

[vale fiber]

the 2 new dinos are now part of the main game

[haughty pollen]

On dedi's , these new dinos - arethey mods or included in the game?

I know the creator has the mods, but i'm confused if WC has built them in?

[distant hearth]

there in the base game

now

[haughty pollen]

gotcha - but the lat dino was a mod, I'm confused hah

[olive talon]

There are 2 versions, the mod version and the now vanilla version

[distant hearth]

so they have added the two new creatures into the base game, so its just part of the game now

[haughty pollen]

any one know why they did it this way with these 2 new, but with gigantoraptor it was a mod?

[distant hearth]

gigantraptor was never supposed be on island an they rushed it out, so it was easier for them do as a mod.
it is now in base game too

[native wave]

Mod became base game Dino. Gigantoraptor was a mod to add it in a quick way....then it became a base game Dino. The 2 new dinos were originally third party mods done by garuga. The gigantoraptor was a community voted official Dino done by WC. The recent additions were adding those two third party mods as base game official dinos.

Easier to add a dino in a mod. No base game code changes so less testing required. (No need to run a full regression test because you’re not touching the game).

[gleaming yarrow]

Any trick to getting a steamcmd dedicated server to show up in the list?

[alpine mountain]

so after my dumb nitrado server updates, I can remove the ceratosaurus mod without losing the ones I already have right?

[olive talon]

Unless Garuga or Wildcard specifically mention it being able to be safely removed, no. The vanilla and mod versions are different.

From looking in Garuga's discord, eventually you'll be able to convert the modded ones to vanilla and then be able to remove the mod.

[rose frigate]

click the "show player servers" filter in the bottom right. it's a very dumb filtration system that makes no sense, but i've figured out that it is required when looking for servers that are hosted through steamcmd.

sidenote, it also hides servers of people who actually know how to manage a server extensively from players who might prefer that, but are unaware of what that filter does. by having it unchecked.

[olive talon]

Nitrado servers are shown on the list without "show player servers".

[rose frigate]

all servers should show regardless.

[olive talon]

They did, before that option was added

[rose frigate]

that option should only hide nitrado servers upon checking it, not hiding VPS servers while it is unchecked. most people don't notice it, and even more people have no idea what it does.

[alpine mountain]

Thank you, I'll keep the mod installed until I hear otherwise

[olive talon]

I would if you want your tamed ones to stay, yes.

[gleaming yarrow]

Yeah… I tried that but still not showing

I used my keyboard and was able to connect via console commands but it doesn’t show in my list

[rose frigate]

dm me your server name. i'll see if i can assist.

[olive talon]

Make sure all of your filters are correct, switch to "all maps" also

[next spear]

so we got our own server now. It´s pve tho which is why flyers can´t pick anything up. Where in the Nitrado webinterface can I find the setting to enable the setting?

[olive talon]

EnableFlyerCarryPVE or something similar to that

[next spear]

thanks I got it

i put difficulty override to 20 and wiped all dinos and restarted server but everything is still level 150 max what am i doing wrong?

[inner thicket]

Anyone know how I can fix my server chat filter? Common words are blocked, I noticed I have a textchatfiltertype=0 in my gameusersettings.

[peak sapphire]

Set MaxDifficulty=false

[tranquil cloak]

does anyone know how i can make a ark for me and my friends i play on pc and they plax on xbox [ark evolved]

[peak sapphire]

For ASE you need the Windows (Xbox) version for crossplay for starters. You can self-host a server on that game with Windows but it’s a little trickier and doesn’t work the same. I have no first hand experience of this, just remember seeing a long post thread about it on official forums. The only other alternative for ASE crossplay with Xbox is to rent from Nitrado - you’d still need the Windows version.

[next spear]

I am so confused...somehow our dinos can reach level 637 wild...even tho difficulty is at 7...we want max wild dinos to be 210

[wise kindle]

Cave dinos will reach double your max dino. Its the way the game is. You can recode every cave dino one by one to spawn lower via Beacon but its a bit of work there to do it.

[next spear]

...it was a rex...a 637 rex

alright it´s a mod map issue

[inner thicket]

Nitrado server keeps rebooting, goes to updating soon as it goes to restart. It's done this like 10 times now, any suggestions?

[ember dawn]

Mine kept doing the same thing until I removed the Ceratosaurus and Xiphiactinus mods, now the only one not working is my Svartalheim map

[sharp bone]

is it hard to edit commands on a LAN dedicated server?

[bleak ivy]

what do you mean by this? if you mean ini that has a file just like singleplayer to edit.
if you mean ingame commands you use enablecheats password (if you set one) to become admin.

[inner thicket]

can i do that without removing the shiny mod tho, not sure where else it comes from

[bleak horizon]

Anyone able to help me with regards why alpha leeds aren't spawning on my server? 🤔

[rich heath]

I’m playing single player console on the island and I’m trying to find a way to set difficulty to 5, can anyone help me all my Dino’s keep being increments of 4 help😭

[native wave]

set max difficulty to true or check the box for it

[ember dawn]

The Shiny mod hasn't caused me any issues

[inner thicket]

then where does the ceratosaurus come from?

[wise kindle]

Ceratosaurus is a base game dino as of Friday. See the Community Crunch and Fridays patch notes.

thx

Does anyone here know if there is a guide in ark wiki or here if it is possible to make a .bat for copying and pasting folders into a new directory and also have it rename it (like island into islandxx-xx-xx for the backup date)

Found a post on stackoverflow which seems to do it and I assume if it can do it with files it can do it with whole folders.

[sharp bone]

I mean is that its kinda confusing setting up a LAN dedicated server for me on where to add in commands and stuff

[opal osprey]

been a while since i've looked... is there a linux server for ASA yet?

[jovial walrus]

This coming Friday ?

You can't take the cera mod of yet ...

I testet on our uofficielle server and it becomes to white raptors in cryo

[olive talon]

Because you cannot remove the mod. It's separate from the base game xiph.

[olive talon]

It was added to the base game 3 days ago, see #patch-notes. Regardless, you cannot remove the mod if you don't want to lose your modded tames. See pinned messages.

[uneven cove]

Anyone here know how to setup cluster on a dedicated Linux ?

[minor saddle]

Did they fix it yet at work

[olive talon]

Make sure to keep an eye on #announcements and #patch-notes for any news regarding mods for Microsoft versions of ASA.

[minor saddle]

Thanks

[wise kindle]

Last Friday. Please read thru the patch notes. I was answering where the mod came from, not if it can be removed. The dino is already in the base game. You CAN remove the mod but any Ceratos you tamed previously will poof. Garuga is going to add a method to keep them at a later date so it can eventually be removed.

[uneven cove]

Nothin yet. We still cannot play and waiting.

[minor saddle]

This is crazy this the whole weekend and still

[celest halo]

that it is, they should of rolled back the client/servers till they had it fixed. to me it shows how much they care about there player base giving apologies and saying its priority 3 days ago means nothing

[jaunty vortex]

It’s the console approach. Sony and Microsoft approve everything released.

[silk pond]

HOW DO I JOIN MY SERVER

it doesnt pop up

[fair osprey]

So out of nowhere on a server I play on, it crashed and then when everyone was logging back in all of our engrams were red and showed 999 is there a fix for this?

[bleak ivy]

ASE or ASA? have you tried joining with IP

[wise kindle]

Shutdown, reapply your ini files and start back up again.

[fair osprey]

Ok. I’ll let the owner know

[wise kindle]

Sounds like your ini settings wiped. Reupload them

[fair osprey]

Thank you

[sharp bone]

anybody knows why when i put the command settings for hatching and breeding it doesnt work?

im doing a LAN dedicated server and i put them in ShooterGame\Saved\Config\WindowsServer in the game.ini file but shit is not working

dinos still have a 24 hour breeding interval

[vale compass]

#Nitrado #Unnofficial server #43.9 version

Does anyone have a problem with random things disappearing from random people please?
Things from vaults such as structures, items from dedicated storage, elements from engines or dinos?
Random vaults or refrigerators or dedicateds are epmty.
After the server rollback, everything came back for some people and disappeared for others.

[celest halo]

How are you checking it didn't work? Them setting normally only affect new timers and don't change ones that are already running

[sharp bone]

at first we thought the setting were setted for it to be at max 24 hours since it was at 0.4

then we changed it to 0.04 and i tamed some random dinos to breed

interval was still 24 hrs

[celest halo]

You put them under the right [section] in the game.ini (not home so can't check section header)

[sharp bone]

I did put them under the settings that they were supposed to be placed under

unless they are supposed to be in the GameUserSettings.ini

[sour sky]

does anybody have any ideas for a server hosting service i tried using nitrado but it broke after 1 or 2 months

[sharp bone]

instead of the game.ini

[celest halo]

I Think they go in game.ini, I use dynamic config for them settings so I could be wrong though

[buoyant sparrow]

gcmt and gcmp commands work but can not place items whitelist removed so technically password will not work because of whitelist not being represented this is something evolved got right in this regards as far as console ive seen password for console can not be set up if there is no place to put a admin password in the first place any plans for fix??

[sharp bone]

i chat gpted this XD let me see if the instructions it gave me works

[wise kindle]

Apex

[sharp bone]

I fixed the problem

Instead of putting it in game.ini i gotta put it int he User one then add the session name in the session settings

[glad flax]

I’m intrigued lol

Here’s an odd problem. I have a 2 server cluster. My friends can join my scorched earth server with no problems. But when they try to get onto my Island server, which is my original server, that had other people on it, it times out. Even from inside the cluster. Running mods but nothing crazy and the mod lists are identical. Any ideas friends?

[livid reef]

firewall

[glad flax]

I have port forwarded everything. I have had people on the same server before. I haven’t changed any ports or anything. I moved but my ISP unlocked everything. I have Open NAT.

[distant hearth]

thye only take effect once any timers in the world run down.
so they will have to wait out the current timers, any eggs , babies etc already in the world wont take new settings . must be fresh in the world with the new settings

[reef charm]

You need to specify the ports that the servers are running on in their configs. They can't share the same ports either for Steam Query or for the game port. Then you need to make sure those ports are forwarded to your PC from your router

It being "open" doesn't apply - the router needs to know which device on your network to forward that traffic to.

[glad flax]

It’s 7777 I just checked battlemetrics

[reef charm]

And what is the other server running?

[glad flax]

7779

[reef charm]

And the query ports?

[glad flax]

25015-25018

[reef charm]

So one server is 25015 and one is... 25017 I assume?

[sharp bone]

ye but before the settings didnt work tested it with new dinos

[glad flax]

Yessir

[sharp bone]

well now since 1 of the settings that wasnt working is working now i rather ask gpt for help than go on reddit to figure shit out

[reef charm]

Then it's likely a firewall issue. Your port forwarding is not setup correctly or there is a seperate firewall interferring somewhere

[livid reef]

are you stopping the server before opening the settings to change them?

[sharp bone]

took me like hours piecing information just to start a server where i could just ask gpt to give me the 6 steps instructions

[sharp bone]

yep always restart the server when changing settings

[glad flax]

Maybe my 7777 is jacked up. I’m going to hard set it to 7778 and move my other one up. Question, if I keep adding servers to the cluster do I keep walking the port up??? Is there a limit??? Ty in advance homies.

[livid reef]

you just need a port and the next one up available. different programs use different ports, so you just need to make sure it's not taken already

like port 80 is typically occupied by http requests

[reef charm]

No limit, just keep increasing the port values. Just make sure you forward them correctly. For UDP ports, you want to forward that port and the one above it. For TCP you can just forward it directly

[glad flax]

o7

[distant hearth]

for note asa doesnt use or need query ports , that is the old ase server listing port for steam.
asa runs on eos and just uses the one udp to connect and be listed

[reef charm]

For real?

[distant hearth]

yep 100% , alot the server start up commands are completely wrong for asa , heres an example of mine that will work fine ,
Start C:\arkserver1\ShooterGame\Binaries\Win64\ArkAscendedServer.exe TheIsland_WP?SessionName="willzlaptop" -port=7777 -winlivemaxplayers=10

[reef charm]

Yeah that's basically what I have, I just had a query port going because I assumed it was still using Steam for the server browser API

I can cut that out now. Thanks for the info

[livid reef]

port 7777 is default and not needed if that's the port used for the server

[reef charm]

Still best practice to specify the port so that it's consistent across multiple servers

[distant hearth]

mmmhm , have fun not adding it if u have a cluster 🙂 the servers will switch between 7777 and 7778 depending which is started first 🙂

[livid reef]

it's actually not recommended to put info in the launch parameters vs putting them in the ini

[livid reef]

specify the port in GameUserSettings.ini

[distant hearth]

good luck trying that in asa

[livid reef]

i have a cluster running like that in asa

[distant hearth]

i cud not get it work, the only way i can change an asa server port is by using -port=xxxx

[reef charm]

I have my ports specified in my .ini actually, although for some reason I had to append winlivemaxplayers to my bat file in order to get it to correctly show in the list

Probably user error on my part, but haven't cared to troubleshoot it

[livid reef]

under [SessionSettings] in GameUserSettings.ini, have "Port=####"

my island is set to 7777 and scorched set to 7779 that way

[jaunty vortex]

You don’t need them 2 apart either

[livid reef]

max players is only via the launch param

[distant hearth]

yea i know the correct place and header, it wont work when i set them up, maybe they fixed it now , maybe i somehow got it wrong .
others have said ?port=xxxx will work, again alot people it wont work for

[jaunty vortex]

I do it your way, W1llz. Not had any issues.

[distant hearth]

yea it works, i know it works that way so recommend it.
im gonna test via ini again when i get chance though, just becuase im curious now lolz

[jaunty vortex]

If only there was official documentation.

[distant hearth]

yea we can dream

[livid reef]

if you do try that, make sure it's not in both launch params and the ini at the same time

im curious what would happen if they had different ports specified

[distant hearth]

i think it wud go from the launch parameter first as server reads those first before reading ini far as i know , otherwise you cud set mods an stuff in the ini id think

[livid reef]

i'm inclined to agree, but i wonder if ini would overwrite it

[distant hearth]

dunno, i find out when i get a chance 🙂

[jaunty vortex]

I wouldn’t bet against it writing the launch parameter into the ini file

[nocturne onyx]

how do you make modded ark evolved server load mods faster?

[livid reef]

better hardware

[nocturne onyx]

anything else?

[livid reef]

more optimized game

[nocturne onyx]

how

[livid reef]

lol you cant do that. the game is badly made

[nocturne onyx]

true

[livid reef]

hardware is all you can do on your end

[nocturne onyx]

these mfs want us to buy a 30$ game and they dont even optimize it

[boreal skiff]

Soo not sure if this the correct channel for this but I was wondering if anyone else has had troubles running mods on their servers/solos?

[jovial walrus]

They are working on it

[wise kindle]

Thats exactly what he said, now you are catching on! 😉

[celest halo]

Launch parameters override the ini, that's how you can run multiple maps from same install folder

[livid reef]

ah. i was wondering how people were doing that

[languid plank]

ok so im looking to cluster my servers together and havent done it before, what do i need to do

[celest halo]

https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Server_configuration#Cross-ARK_Data_Transfer has info on setting the cluster id and cluster dir

[languid plank]

thanks

[boreal skiff]

Ok..thx

[arctic basin]

Hello there, CustomDynamicConfigUrl not working with commandline ?

[desert crown]

hello, somone with experience in makeing gigantoraptor spawning in se?
i used this
[ShooterGameMode_TEMPOverrides]
bUseCorpseLocator=True
ConfigAddNPCSpawnEntriesContainer=(NPCSpawnEntriesContainerClassString="SE_DinoSpawnEntriesCanyons_C",NPCSpawnEntries=
((AnEntryName=Gigantoraptor
("/Game/ASA/Dinos/Gigantoraptor/Gigantoraptor_Character_BP.Gigantoraptor_Character_BP_C),NPCsToSpawnPercentageChance=
(1),ManualSpawnPointSpreadRadius=1500)),NPCSpawnLimits=
((NPCClass=/Game/ASA/Dinos/Gigantoraptor/Gigantoraptor_Character_BP.Gigantoraptor_Character_BP_C

but is not spawning nothing

is the code right? what file i need to modified putting this inside?

[distant hearth]

dunno bout the code but its under the wrong header

[desert crown]

what you mean? im completley new abouth this kind of things

[distant hearth]

[/script/shootergame.shootergamemode]

you shud have that header in the game.ini

that code wud go beneath that

you currently have it under this header , [ShooterGameMode_TEMPOverrides]

[desert crown]

[/script/shootergame.shootergamemode]
bUseCorpseLocator=True
ConfigAddNPCSpawnEntriesContainer=(NPCSpawnEntriesContainerClassString="SE_DinoSpawnEntriesCanyons_C",NPCSpawnEntries=
((AnEntryName=Gigantoraptor
("/Game/ASA/Dinos/Gigantoraptor/Gigantoraptor_Character_BP.Gigantoraptor_Character_BP_C),NPCsToSpawnPercentageChance=
(1),ManualSpawnPointSpreadRadius=1500)),NPCSpawnLimits=
((NPCClass=/Game/ASA/Dinos/Gigantoraptor/Gigantoraptor_Character_BP.Gigantoraptor_Character_BP_C

like this?

[distant hearth]

in the game ini the top header shud be [/script/shootergame.shootergamemode]
u put that code beneath that
but i also noticed the code is wrong as there isnt any closing parenthesis

[desert crown]

can you help me fix it?

[distant hearth]

no sorry im hopeless with spawn entries, best advice i have is look into ark beacon omni app/program..
although i think spawn entries are paid version .
you can try here too for all the free info ,
https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Server_configuration

[desert crown]

ok but when you say there is no closing parenthesis, what do you mean?

[distant hearth]

so you have the code opening a load brackets (

but there not closed at the end . with )))

for any opening bracket it needs a closing bracket

[desert crown]

realy thanks

there is no one more expert of spawing command? pleased ive tried everithing but its not working

[distant hearth]

the code looks like one another user here posted to me , thundergod

i believe it works fine if it inputted correctly and it has the updated file paths so it shud work in the correct location of the game ini .
stop the server , wait a few mins, edit the files, save it , restart server, dino wipe and see if works

[native wave]

Adjust numbers as needed. you were missing some parts of the ini entry

edit: was missing a comma and removed the spaces

you were missing the start of the "NPCsToSpawn=" completely

[desert crown]

and this should be putted in the game ini file? it can work even for other creature changin the bp and location?

[native wave]

yes, in the game.ini. I've only tried it with the gigantoraptor. worked for me...others have tried it with other dinos and not had success

[desert crown]

just copy that code lines and put at the end of the game ini file, right?

[native wave]

yeah

[distant hearth]

i already told you it needs to go under the correct header, it can go anywhere under that header on its own line
[/script/shootergame.shootergamemode]

shoving it at the bottom wont wrok becuase of asa using another header

[native wave]

game.ini only usually has the one header

gameusersettings.ini frequently has more than one

[distant hearth]

ase did , asa now has this header too [ShooterGameMode_TEMPOverrides]

[desert crown]

its normal that is sooo much longer than the other lines?

[native wave]

yes, it cannot have spaces

[distant hearth]

yea its alot code

[native wave]

any strings usually should be enclosed by quotes ""

like "/Game/ASA/Dinos/Gigantoraptor/Gigantoraptor_Character_BP.Gigantoraptor_Character_BP_C"

I also didn't check for correct paths in that....if you get them from the wiki they should be correct as I corrected it on there recently

[desert crown]

you mean the code you wrote now over there is not correct?

[native wave]

but does the corpse locator actually work?

[native wave]

I was the one that corrected the path for the Gigantoraptor when it got moved into the base game, so unless someone else edited it since, it should be correct. The one located under spawn command on this page: https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Gigantoraptor

[distant hearth]

yea , they fixed it using that override if i rem rightly, its been a while since i played it deffo was fixed last time i played , i.e gave the death beam out the sky

[desert crown]

ok thanks a lot , realy helpfull, and lets hope it work , testin right now

[native wave]

yeah no one has edited it since I did

[desert crown]

mmmmmmmmm it crushed 2 times, not a good sign

[native wave]

try this instead:

ConfigAddNPCSpawnEntriesContainer=(NPCSpawnEntriesContainerClassString="SE_DinoSpawnEntriesCanyons_C",NPCSpawnEntries=((AnEntryName="Gigantoraptor",EntryWeight=0.15,NPCsToSpawn=("/Game/ASA/Dinos/Gigantoraptor/Gigantoraptor_Character_BP.Gigantoraptor_Character_BP_C"),NPCsToSpawnPercentageChance=(1),ManualSpawnPointSpreadRadius=1500)),NPCSpawnLimits=((NPCClass="/Game/ASA/Dinos/Gigantoraptor/Gigantoraptor_Character_BP.Gigantoraptor_Character_BP_C",MaxPercentageOfDesiredNumToAllow=0.01)))

no entry weight was assigned
edit: missing an ending quote

I also added to the Max Percentage part as it wasn't in your original ini entry

[desert crown]

oooooooooooooooooo yes

they are spawining with all the nest

thank thanks thanks

[native wave]

adjust Entry weight and Max Percentage to get the right number you want

[desert crown]

what those number means? i mean what i have to change for what effect?

[native wave]

if you look at the spawn entries page, you'll see the general numbers for entry weights they give everything for the various maps (ASE is behind a tab via this link) https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Spawn_entries#ARK:_Survival_Ascended-0

When it chooses to spawn a new dinos in a spawn group the weight will raise or lower the chances of that dino being picked.
The max percentage is the max percentage of all dinos on the map

[desert crown]

there are somewhere the entries for SE? cause here i see only the island

[native wave]

not yet. I took a shot in the dark trying an ASE spawn container entry for scorched

[desert crown]

ok thanks a lot, realy

[fiery jungle]

I've been playing an ark non-dedicated session with some friends lately but the guy hosting it doesn't want to play anymore, I was wondering if its possible for him to somehow send me the world file and is it possible for me to then host it myself instead of making an entirely new world?

[native wave]

never tried it but moving a save over should work, just drop it in the same directory they have it in within your installation

[pallid dock]

It's been a minute for me for the update that added them to the base game, but is it safe to remove the Gigantoraptor and Ceratosaurus mods?

[native wave]

gigantoraptor yes. ceratosaurus will be distinct from it's mod version, so if you remove it, any dinos of that mod will go away

[pallid dock]

Is there any difference between them aside from being base game and modded?

[native wave]

I think I saw that garuga was looking for a way to convert existing dinos over, but nothing exists right now to do that

I think they made some adjustments to it before adding it to the game, but I don't know the details of those

[pallid dock]

Alright, thank you. I will remove both of them in case I get double cerato spawns lol

[desert crown]

ok @native wave im trying a thing

now that the gigantoraptor work, im trying to see if the same thing can be done with the evo giga of the paleo mod

im trying using the same code changing the zone and the bp

[native wave]

good luck

[desert crown]

it already crushed 3 times, but i notuiced i was missing 2 )) at the end of the code, now i correct and re-try

[native wave]

every line should have a comma if additional entries follow it, and every bracket should have an ending bracket

[desert crown]

no , down again

ConfigAddNPCSpawnEntriesContainer=(NPCSpawnEntriesContainerClassString="SE_DinoSpawnEntriesDunes_C",NPCSpawnEntries=((AnEntryName="EVO_Giga",EntryWeight=0.15,NPCsToSpawn=("/PA_EVO_Pack_01/Dinos/EVO_Giga/EVO_Giga_Character_BP.EVO_Giga_Character_BP'" 500 0 0 35"),NPCsToSpawnPercentageChance=(1),ManualSpawnPointSpreadRadius=1500)),NPCSpawnLimits=((NPCClass="/PA_EVO_Pack_01/Dinos/EVO_Giga/EVO_Giga_Character_BP.EVO_Giga_Character_BP'" 500 0 0 35",MaxPercentageOfDesiredNumToAllow=0.01)))

it seems correct to you? @native wave

[native wave]

no

just sec

[desert crown]

ok thanks

[native wave]

ConfigAddNPCSpawnEntriesContainer=(NPCSpawnEntriesContainerClassString="SE_DinoSpawnEntriesDunes_C",NPCSpawnEntries=((AnEntryName="EVO_Giga",EntryWeight=0.15,NPCsToSpawn=("/PA_EVO_Pack_01/Dinos/EVO_Giga/EVO_Giga_Character_BP.EVO_Giga_Character_BP_C"),NPCsToSpawnPercentageChance=(1),ManualSpawnPointSpreadRadius=1500)),NPCSpawnLimits=((NPCClass="/PA_EVO_Pack_01/Dinos/EVO_Giga/EVO_Giga_Character_BP.EVO_Giga_Character_BP_C",MaxPercentageOfDesiredNumToAllow=0.01)))

looks like you were trying to force spawn a level 500? All it wants for that parameter is the blueprint path (and you had a few too many quotes), which I've slightly changed in both cases as I think the _C is necessary.

[desert crown]

lets try

it work, thanks thanks thanks

[native wave]

no problem

[desert crown]

never enough

[safe dock]

So if I read this right I can now remove the Gigantoraptor mod from my Nitrado server with no issues?

[olive talon]

Yes

[sweet stream]

How do I create a server for cross play?

[waxen robin]

how do i limit how many tames a tribe can have out on ASA

[candid chasm]

I have a problem with a unofficial server ad.

Will not delete, will not edit (although it will delete the main information), cannot repost And cannot delete ad

I had a problem with my server directory.

(I've asked mods for help but no use & deleted and reinstalled discord just to be sure)

[plush crystal]

You posted one an hour ago you will have to wait the 5 hour cooldown. Also they can't be edited

[candid chasm]

@plush crystal thank you! You're the best!

[upbeat beacon]

We have a player who we previously banned in our server, we then went to unban her to let her join again however every time she tries to log in she is banned again. It keeps re-banning her even though we have unbanned her, is there a setting we accidentally enabled to re-ban?

[livid reef]

in the GameUserSettings.ini file. setting named MaxPersonalTamedDinos

under [ServerSettings] header

[outer hazel]

Have they released Linux binaries for the server files yet?

[native wave]

nope

can be run via proton though....what I do with pterodactyl

[slate bridge]

Hey guys - Does anyone know the official Gigantoraptor creature ID path ?

[arctic basin]

Work with the command line ? 🙂

[lethal plover]

Anyone got a hemoglobin cocktail engram ID

[celest halo]

-UseDynamicConfig in the bat file and CustomDynamicConfigUrl= in GUS if you want to use a custom and not official rates

URL I use http don't know if it works with https on ASA, ASE https didn't work

[minor saddle]

This is crazy still no update wtf wildcard. It's been since friday

[jaunty vortex]

It’s Microsoft certification that’s the issue. You need to wait for them to approve any updates (along with Sony for PS5).

[minor saddle]

Wish I could run a server though my other xbox

[stiff nest]

Has anyone figured out, what number is set the mating interval too if I want 8 hours in between Rex mating?

[distant hearth]

matingintervalmultiplier=0.2
will give them a cooldown timer of between 3h36mins and 9hrs36mins
You cant get exact as dinos mating cooldown varies between them , i used ark beacon omni app/program to get th einfo, i highly recomend it , so you can get exact how you want, the free version does all the breeding multipliers

[slate bridge]

anyone know the giga raptor blueprint path for a saddle ?

[native wave]

https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Gigantoraptor path in the spawn command dropdown
https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Gigantoraptor_Saddle in the spawn command dropdown

[undone hearth]

Hello, tell me the command to spawn the oasis of the dinosaur please

[slate bridge]

Is that definitly the official path as its not like the normal saddle BP ?

[tardy cradle]

ASA Nitrado . Disappearing characters, dinos, resources. What's the problem?

[slate bridge]

Nitrado

[jaunty vortex]

Happens to my server too. I’ve had people lose resources and podded dinos. I’m on unofficial dedicated.

[olive talon]

Okay so

I know this has been gone over a billion times, but I'm confused on port forwarding

I added 7777, 7778, 27015, and 27020 to mine, and while I can join the dedicated, my friend cannot

[jaunty vortex]

What’s the name of your server?

[olive talon]

Ottopia

I don't have any mods or anything added to it, at this point I'm just trying to make it joinable

[jaunty vortex]

It’s showing on Battlemetrics. Although it’s showing two servers. One dead, one alive

[olive talon]

The dead one is the Nitrado server we were hosting, it's been down for 2 days and we're fed up.

So I decided to use my laptop as a dedicated host.

I'm not sure if it's something I did wrong or what

[jaunty vortex]

well, you have one that is alive, sent the screenshot in DM

if it's ASA, you only need 7777 and 27020 from your list of ports

[distant hearth]

asa only uses the udp port, doesnt need query port , not used or needed .

it needs to be forwarded in firewall incoming rules and through the router both as a udp port with what ever port you set, default is 7777udp

[native wave]

I can say without a doubt the path for the gigantoraptor itself is accurate, I'm the one that changed it on the wiki (not the one that found it...that was TacticianLyra) after it was added to the base game. It's what I'm using on my Scorched map to add it to spawn containers. The saddle gfi I have not verified yet....it's what I found when I looked up the saddle on the wiki

[slate bridge]

yeah the pathway for the dino is definitly correct, thank you for adding that, trying to add it to my starter kit but its the saddle that im having a problem with xD

[kind cloak]

Hey, does anyone know why I can't find any servers? I still play ASE because of the maps and stuff, but since last week I can't find any servers, no matter how long I wait to search. Does anyone know why that is? If I cancel the search and try to restart, it says no servers found and I can't press refresh. I always have to restart the game. But then no servers are found either! (Console)

[native wave]

"Blueprint'/Game/ASA/Dinos/Gigantoraptor/PrimalItemArmor_GigantoraptorSaddle.PrimalItemArmor_GigantoraptorSaddle'"

got it from beacon and confirmed it in game

[slate bridge]

You legend ! 😄

[native wave]

gotta give credit to beacon....they had both the gigatoraptor and faso saddles on their site

[slate bridge]

Thats amazing, been searching for ages haha

[native wave]

faso and gigatoraptor saddle blueprint paths have been added to the wiki

[solemn zephyr]

How anyone runs a server without Beacon is beyond me.... just wasting hours of your lives lol

[boreal skiff]

Anyone know why console admin mode doesn’t work on servers but works fine in solo play?

[grand cedar]

Anyone know how to make element transferable between maps? Like using it to craft compasses or soap

[frigid vine]

It affects all server owners i guess...
On our cluster the same... 50/50 bug.. and also sometimes losing items and dinos randomly. It's often frustration.

Hope they will fix that one day or they lose more players over the time.

[jaunty vortex]

it's not your fault, pleinx. It's affecting us all

[frigid vine]

Thats exactly what i said 🙂

[boreal skiff]

Nvm…it was just a setting that wasn’t turned on

[solemn zephyr]

My buddy released a nice mod called 50 50 cleanup that will clear 50 50 on restart for you

[tardy cradle]

When they fix it, it'll be great.

[frigid vine]

Its not the problem the clean the things. The problem is that items/chars/dinos not only get cloned to 50/50. Another problem with 50/50 is on (for now we found this issue only on SE) that if you remove at 50/50 e.g. a foundation, it could happen that in the players base this foundation disappears/destroys.

Now you can imagine what happend, if you had cryofridge on top of that foundation.
Thats why i decided in my cluster the admins and players: keep out of 50/50. We only remove the dinos there if they cloned. If not, we give the dino the players back.
Its annoying and needs lot of manual affort.

So be careful if you remove things from 50/50 since SE release.
So nice idea with mod, but really bad for the players which playing on this servers.

[solemn zephyr]

Odd, I have not seen that at all. It's only been duplicated items and killing the players at 50.50 actually fixes their character.

-passivemods=6666,5555,4444```

Is this the correct way of using this? and where do i place it in the INI configs?

[grave shale]

hey guys still having issues hosting a server, i forgot who pinged me saying to dm them, but here’s my console when i start the server (ports forwarded, firewall allowed etc etc..) and on battlemetrics . com it says my status is dead

well i would put my console but cant put images lol

[distant hearth]

those are server start commandline arguments, they do not go in the ini and it wud be the wrong way to use them how u show

[grave shale]

^^ my console if anyone has advice

[solemn zephyr]

Yes, get beacon, it will make your life 1000x easier when configuring a server

[uneven flame]

-ForceRespawnDinos -ForceAllowCaveFlyers -noundermeshkilling -mods=9999,8888,7777 -passivemods=6666,5555,4444

like this then?

[grave shale]

oh sweet maybe ill try and join it

lol do u mind deleting this tho hide my port 🧐

[distant hearth]

almost, the passive mod argument is used to make the mod assets avail;ible in game whilst blocking its other effects , so u wud be ,
-mods=9999,8888,7777 -passivemods=9999,8888,7777

It is unknow if it works with any other mods than the two wildcard used it for when they had issues

[distant hearth]

i deleted it but it really isnt an issue, anyone can find it wuth the info u gave , plus they default to port 7777

[frigid vine]

Before SE it was only cloned. But like i said, its not longer only cloned. We had this seen in Action. Me at 50/50 who destroys the structures, the other in the origin base of the Tribe.

Or, its like you have to wait for the next server restart. That could be possible. Then its only a Clone after rebooting

[uneven flame]

I had that happening long before SE launched

Dinos even pulled from cryo

[grave shale]

lol ok, removed it. unfortunately still timing out when trying to join and don't see it on the server list.

[distant hearth]

no worries, i never worry bout it, it just an adress like any other adress, peopl get overly worried about it.
as for the joining issue, are you 100% certain port 777udp is forwarded inbound in windows firewall and your router and any other antivirus software u might be using

[grave shale]

yep 100%

[solemn zephyr]

Which could be why the mod is working so well for me, because it just demos at restart.

Just sharing my experience

[grave shale]

even have 7778, and the other one when i dont remeber off the top of my head

[distant hearth]

aight gimme a few minutes , gonna try join it myself to confirm there open then

[grave shale]

sure thanks for your help : )

[distant hearth]

sometimes people get nat loopback issues, i dont know what it means or how to fix it as i know next to nothing on networking. some isp also block incoming connections, will test if i can join , that will confirm if the issue is with you or the server and its forwarding

asa only needs the one udp port that you set to be forwarded , then its joinable

[grave shale]

i looked into that too, i don't have NAT loopback from what i looked into my isp, and it does not block connections it says as well.

dunno, my brother has made servers for other games before and had him help me out, not sure whats goin on

[frigid vine]

Yeah it could be possible that WC checks already after restart is it clone or not. So means the structures at 50/50 Not longer synced to the origin base.

Do you know which command he is using in the mod to destroy the structures/chars/Dinos?

Because i have all the Data. Means i have all structures/dino IDs already. Is there Something Like "Cheat destroyStructureId 1234556"?

Or a CCC Cheat? This i have too (x,y,z coords)

[dawn veldt]

Can someone tell me how to transfer things from se to island? Do I have to go start over on a se server?

[bleak ivy]

officials still has scorched downloads disabled so if you were to join it then yes, only your survivor could go.
unofficials and Singleplayer is up to the owner.

[distant hearth]

it times me out too, you will have to recheck your port forwarding as something is blocking the connection

[solemn zephyr]

No, I dont have the source files. I imagine it's using a combination of AOE destroy commands, but thats purely speculation. I also get a discord webhook output to let me know how much has been destroyed, and how many things are slightly outside of the radius and not effected

[frigid vine]

Okay i'll checkout his DC.

Can you send me a example of the Report please via DM?

[grave shale]

i got rid of an antivirus for my websites, seeing if that does anything 🤷‍♀️

[distant hearth]

yea any antivirus will block incoming connections, you would of needed to put an exception through it too

tbh imo a/v are just a scam, windows defender does its job better than most those things

[grave shale]

well good news, i can join from my internal ip which i couldn't before, but still timing out with external, so I'll see what I can do about that

[distant hearth]

well thats a step in the right direction, atleast you know it was a port forwarding/connection issue 🙂

[grave shale]

my network was on NAT only which can be an issue, it's changed now so that should help, gonna restart the server and test it with external ip

[silk eagle]

Have they not updated the server version on steamcmd yet? I'm still showing 41.28

[distant hearth]

your quite a few behind on that , been a major version since

[silk eagle]

steamcmd is saying it's up-to-date. Something I'm doing wrong?

app_update 445400

[distant hearth]

likely yea, update batch file shud look somrting like this . but using with your file paths
start C:\SteamCMD\steamcmd.exe +force_install_dir "C:\Arkserver1" +login anonymous +app_update 2430930 validate +quit

validate isnt strictly needed but it takes a few seconds an i like to uses it

[silk eagle]

2430930?

[distant hearth]

thats client number iirc, see how i did it above, i know that works

[distant hearth]

yes

[silk eagle]

ah, dang. Yeah, I was running the update on the wrong app id. Thanks!

apparently 445400 is sotf

[distant hearth]

i see lol, well i just updated mine an the latest version is v43.12

[silk eagle]

yep, just updated to 43.12 also. I'm glad too... I didn't want to have to go into steam and pull the older client again 🤣

[native wave]

I don't run my server using beacon...it is only a source of information via a web search. Turns out if you go through this page:
https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Server_configuration
and select the entries you want to include, you can build your own inis and startup command. That's exactly what I did when I built my ASA servers after wanting to clean up my existing inis from ASE. Stuff like breeding settings are settings I've been working on since around the time Ragnarok originally launched. Sure, if you're just jumping into server hosting, Beacon can be a big help, but it's absolutely not required to run a server.

never had issues with 50/50 on ASA. And only a couple times on ASE.
never had issues with disappearing dinos, items, or inventories.

[brittle viper]

Hi there, question, does anyone know the level limit on items that can transfer to scorched earth?

[fierce citrus]

is anybody elses unofficial server crashing on startup, I load in and it imeediately crashes, everytime

I've restarted my server, and removed a couple mods as well, but it's still not working, I'm on xbox series s, and if you're just going to try and roast me for what platform/console I play on don't even bother responding unless you have an actual solution to the issue

[jaunty vortex]

What mods do you have? Nevermore Taxidermy and the latest Super Cryo Storage will cause this, for example. It looks like Taxidermy has at least partial details for the Wyvern Zombie Fire from Fear Evolved in ASE and it looks as though this may be crashing the server when SCS does a dino scan on server startup.

[fierce citrus]

I do have scs, but removing it would get rid of all those dinos I have cryoed, is there any way around that?

[jaunty vortex]

Nope. My server is down until it can be resolved. If you have issues with mod combinations, I’d suggest posting it in the SCS discord.

[fierce citrus]

Okay thank you

Random question but was the level override ever fixed? At launch it would cap you at 135 regardless of what you set up the ramp/max level to be.

if i try to join my server it says joining failed connection timeout what do i need to do

[solemn zephyr]

Beacon doesn't "run servers ", it simply builds inis with a nice gui.

To each their own. You can stay dialing in breeding since rag released where someone could use the free breeding multipliers section of beacon to dial their breeding down to the second in under a minute.

If people choose to make their life harder by not utilizing purpose built tools, more power to them!

[solemn zephyr]

Not really, it's now 155

[silk pond]

yo i cant join my server without crashing

[dusky thistle]

So the override still wont let you exceed what the normal cap + bonus would be then?

[solemn zephyr]

Sadly

[silk pond]

anyone knows how to fix

[nova pumice]

Gonna have to start removing mods till it lets you join

[silk pond]

me?

man i dont use mods\

[native wave]

When did I say it "run servers"? I know what it is and what it does. Stop with the condescending bullshit.

[silk pond]

my loading if i want to join just takes to long how to fix it

[solemn zephyr]

Wasn't my intention at all. Apologies if I came across that way. Your first line was "I don't run my servers with beacon "

Hoping just a miscommunication

[silk pond]

@everyone

please help me i cant join a server and its taking to long and then it just returns me to home page

pls bro i cant do anything

[native wave]

"Using beacon"...as in a tool I use while preparing to run the server. I use vs code instead...though just for editing files. I can also manipulate docker containers with it, so I could, if I wanted to, actually run my servers. I don't though for my game servers, I use pterodactyl to manage those.

[iron bronze]

Anyone happen to know what the spawn command is for Abyssal Xiphactinus??

[sonic lake]

Why is it that everytime I join any server, the server is just gone after a few days. I put all the work in building then it disappears. This is on official and unofficial servers and it really just makes me not want to even play

[young canopy]

Can you transfer between the modded maps. Like make a big transfer cluster

[native wave]

There's no connection between official and unofficial servers. So you are just unlucky that the servers you have joined have gone down. Official servers have a lot of problems and frequently have downtime.

Unofficial servers are run by player for players. Some are rented (nitrado run a lot, but there are other hosts if you selfhost), some are run on their own hardware (like I have). Reasons why servers go down range from crashing to save corruption, to mod conflicts causing crashes, to the owners not being able to pay their bill, hardware failures, or the owner just not wanting to play anymore.

Unless you run your own all of these you will probably deal with at some point. Just keep trying to find a stable server...or get the hardware to run your own, or go to single player where you don't have to deal with servers going down, but single player can have its own issues.

[sonic lake]

Oh yeah I know official and unofficial are different and I get that official servers are up and down often.

I have a friend who has created unofficial servers and she even has issues with the game telling her her server doesn't exist anymore after she's even played on her own server a few days

[native wave]

Running servers for an early access game is a mixed bag. I had one of my servers go down because they changed the blueprint path for the gigantoraptor and didn't tell anyone. Over came that so now waiting for the next thing to go wrong.

[wise kindle]

Join clusters that advertise how long they have been up and say things like "no wipe" and you will likely have better luck. Some clusters just werent made for longevity. Best to look for the ones that are.

[native wave]

I wanted longevity, so I got the hardware to run my own. Renting servers is not a way to ensure longevity. Been there done that..
Hate nitrado now. The greatest control you have is when you run your own.

[slender junco]

I’m trying to make a word, but in the Dino amount it doesn’t let me put more than 1.0

[wise kindle]

Tell us something we dont all share lol

I dont think you will find ANYONE that likes them.

But if you live in the boonies, not alot of choices there.

[native wave]

I don't live in the boonies...but not near a big city either. All you need is decent internet access. You're not forced to use nitrado if you can selfhost it...and that includes renting hardware. Buying hardware can get expensive...helps if you have a local electronics recycler that deals on ebay and gets hardware from a local worldwide corporate hq. Local pickup is a great way to avoid shipping charges.

[native wave]

If you host on nitrado...they control what can go in their forms, and you can't do anything about that.

[slender junco]

Okay

[wise kindle]

And power that doesnt go out.

[distant hearth]

it used to be this in gus.ini for ase , but you do not want to go higher on a nitrado server , they lag enough as it is ,
DinoCountMultiplier=1

higher is more , lower less

[native wave]

Which is why they limit the form

[distant hearth]

the form is just there shitty laggy user interface , it just makes it easier for anyone that is to lay to google the actual ini lines

[native wave]

I wonder if they validate entries. Just because they limit client side doesn't mean they check for valid values...and there's always browser inspection tools

And if they don't do that...that's not great for security of their systems

[distant hearth]

i dont know what they do on the user interface side but you have full access to the ini anyway , so can be edited however you want. I learned lessons over the years dealing with them , better to just do it yoursef as 90% of there support no fuck all and cant even be arsed to use google

[bitter lichen]

am i able to add mods to my switch nitrado server or are they not compatiable on switch

[wise kindle]

Probably a question for the Nitrado discord tbh

[distant hearth]

no mods on switch version

[bitter lichen]

ok

I'm looking for the base game spawn command

you didn't ask for the base game command, you asked for a modded version https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Xiphactinus

you can find the base game command under "spawn command" on the right side

[lusty valley]

looking for a mentor : )

Yea, I just got told that the veriations of the modded versions were not added to the base game versions...for some reason...but yea, thanks ^^

[native wave]

yeah they are only adding the base versions of those garuga dinos

[quartz flower]

does anyone have a private server that uses the "dynamic config" option to follow official rate changes and know if i was to change the actual breeding to 2x permanent instead of official would the rates still auto change and leave the breeding stuff alone?

[robust nymph]

@lapis quest most of the mods don't work on unofficial. There's a whitelist ini we can add that's meant to make all custom cosmetics work, but it doesn't. There's 6 pages of them and maybe 2 pages work. Most of the rest either don't show up in game at all or do not can't be placed onto anything

[distant hearth]

dynamic will always override anything you set manually,
live with official rates or, set it something like 4x permanantly an leave it alone.
or setup your own url for the 2x u want and change it each time official does its rates

[lapis quest]

I know, we use the oficial link on our server

I was talking about those they showcased on last weeks crunch

[robust nymph]

The official link?

[bleak ivy]

servers use official's list by default.

[robust nymph]

There was whitelist url thing you posted a bit back, that allows all custom cosmetics. But it doesn't. Is there one that work?

@bleak ivy

[bleak ivy]

it works for me. where did you put it?

[lusty valley]

I'm looking for an admin who will share her/his experiences with me.

Hi guys can anyone help me at all… I purchased a Nitrado server for Asa via windows 10 app for my Xbox, I set everything up named my server done the coding deployed it and everything. Added the mods I wanted and went to start up the server and it’s constantly restarting like it’s in a loop. I’ve tried reinstalling it on the web interface through Nitrado and that hasn’t worked. What else can I do apart from wait for Nitrado to get back to me with a solution?

[robust nymph]

@bleak ivy in the Gus
Tried it with and without the " cos when ya copy and paste they " vanish.

Where in Gus did you place?

Fancy weapons, skin cosmetics dedicated, modern structure skins and deimos cosmetics female all don't work. Can't attach them to anything in cosmetics screen and don't attack the outlines either.

[bleak ivy]

I put mine under server settings. mine doesn't have the quotes.

[limpid stream]

Anyone used the Desmodus mod for ASA? I think i've managed to get the spawn mapped, but the saddle item listed on the mod page doesn't list an Engram ID so it can be force added. any suggestions?

[wise kindle]

Join the mods discord and look for the mod faqs channel. If it doesnt have a discord, request this information in the mod page comments on the curseforge website.

[native wave]

"request this information in the mod page comments on the curseforge website." which they can totally disable leaving you no recourse to get the information about the mod you need. If I get in that position with a mod, it gets uninstalled.

[limpid stream]

I messaged the creator, hoping for a reply. We'll see I guess. If all else fails I'll command it in...

[wise kindle]

In which case you are sol, and shouldnt use the mod. Btw, did you mean to tag me? I was helping to answer a question.

[native wave]

was responding to what you said....adding that bit of info, so yeah

[wise kindle]

Ah ok then. Likely good to tag the og as well. As the expansion would serve his interests better I think.

[native wave]

true

it annoys me when mod creators don't offer basic support like proper documentation for their mod. if you're going radio silent, at least have adequate docs for it

[wise kindle]

Same. Several popular mods have no discord and no comments enabled. I end up panning them to the dismay of many.

[native wave]

of course....WC devs don't update their wiki for the most part and rely on volunteers from the community to do it...which is documenation for their game....so not exactly setting a great example

[robust nymph]

Thanks I'll try that

Thanks a whole bunch.

Mine did that when I made my new server about a month back. Only way I got it fixed was reinstalling the server a few times until it finally let me in the do the coding

[acoustic pasture]

Thank god lol. I have been waiting for an announcement forever about that but haven't seen anything

[rose frigate]

anyone else having issues updating servers to 43.14?

yeah, my players retained the emotes from each of the event mods.

the emote items even still existed.

[clever tendon]

Has anyone had problems with the mini map resetting as well as the explorer notes?

[rose frigate]

what did you do that may have caused this? was it just random, or have you erased any save files, and/or done a recent rollback/backup load recently?

things like this can also happen when moving files, so if you have transferred hosts at any point recently, your save files may have gotten corrupted, and if you have a set of backup saves that you know are from before this happened, you could try replacing your current files with those.

[tepid swallow]

I am throwing this question out there so anyone can reply to it but if i check eventviewer it tells me shootergame (it is a computer just hosting cluster) runs out of memory. But 128gb memory i thought was more than enough for the 4 servers i run right now. And sometimes the os freeze. I can move the mouse but explorer and all software is dead. The only constant i have seen now is that there was an update to windows defender the computer downloaded around the same time. This has happend 2-3 times now.

• do i have to do something to allocate more memory to ark servers?
• does anyone else gave problems hosting servers on win11 and it freezing? Win11 pro, 128gb ram, ryzen 5700g, 2tb ssd.

[warped grove]

Hi, I have a question. I am currently playing on an unofficial server that I host myself on ASE, and I was wondering: if I get the DLCs and my friends don't have them, will I be able to enjoy them (have access to the DLC-specific crafts) or will it not change anything? Considering we are on The Center.

[lunar cloud]

Yes. By default on ASE, you need to go to the DLC map and learn the engram there. That way you need the DLC.
Therefore "unlocking" the engram needs the DLC as you need to go to that map to do so. For example you need to go to Aberration to get the Climbing Pick.
However, if you are admin, you can set values in the game.ini which allow you to auto unlock these types of engrams so you dont need to go to the DLC map to learn it.
For example, Climbing pick entry is EngramEntryAutoUnlocks=(EngramClassName="EngramEntry_ClimbingPick_C",LevelToAutoUnlock=34)
That will give you the engram automatically at lvl 34, i believe even if you dont have the DLC for aberration

[sacred holly]

hi i try to download an ark server but i get this
Steam>app_update 376030 validate +quit
Update state (0x3) reconfiguring, progress: 0.00 (0 / 0)
Error! App '376030' state is 0x202 after update job.

[clever trail]

Hi hi

Just a quick question
Port forwarding has nothing to do with being able to see your other server in your cluster if you're only locally

[peak sapphire]

@warped grove Can confirm this works as I did it for my Rag server. I just went one step further and changed the crafting requirements of each engram to the base game equivalent as best I could.

[warped grove]

Do you own the DLC ?

[olive talon]

You don't have to own the dlc to enable engrams on ASE

[warped grove]

I tried the exemple of the climbingpick but it's seem to dosn't work. But I can give myself the item.

Also, my game.ini file was empty, I don't know if it's normal or not

[peak sapphire]

That seems like a different problem. The config file should work.

[warped grove]

maybe I had to put it in the GameUserSettings.ini ?

[olive talon]

You'll need to add the shootergame header if it isn't there in game.ini, it is usually empty if you haven't done anything yet.

[warped grove]

what is the shootergame header ?

[olive talon]

[/script/shootergame.shootergamemode]

[warped grove]

I need to put that in my game.ini ?

and after I put the thing for the engrams

[olive talon]

Put this first, and then any game.ini configs under it.

[warped grove]

Alright I gonna test it rn

[clever tendon]

@rose frigate I know I had to erase and restart the whole map due to corrupted files before and everything was working just fine. I do not currently have any back ups that are recent since I do back ups once a week. I probably should do once a day to be honest. How do I solve this issue of constant resetting of the map and explorer notes? So replace files from an older point like a roll back. I don't know if it is happening to anyone else though too so I have to see

[warped grove]

okay it work thx !

[clever tendon]

Does anyone know how to solve the issue of map resetting and explorer notes resetting?

[fervent tree]

Afaik the Map and explorer notes are entirely client side. So if you reinstall your PC or something similar they get lost

[clever tendon]

So there is no way to fix it?

I never moved any files or anything through this character though?

[halcyon cove]

How do premium mods work on servers?

[lapis quest]

Server owners can host the mods without buying it, only players who buy the mod can join the server

[halcyon cove]

That’s a bit annoying. I think it should be optional like tall tales. 🤦🏻‍♂️

[clever tendon]

Does anyone know if there is a way to fix the map and explorer notes resetting everytime you log in and off your server or is it just a character thing? Some others said it's not happening to them so not sure what's going on?

[livid reef]

sounds like a corrupted character save to me

[rose frigate]

When you did the data erase, that's when everything got reset. You can't prevent this.

[clever tendon]

So in other words I am screwed

I have a character save from a different point in time but I don't know if it has the same issue.

I guess I can Try it and see what happens I guess

[surreal grove]

anyone good at crash reports that i can dm

What should I do if this continues to happen with my character should I erase and make a new character?

[lapis quest]

Do you host the server on the same pc as you play?

[clever tendon]

Yes

I play through PS5 but host server on PC

How do I go about this issue because I don't know what to do?

[lapis quest]

Well, that looks like a problem coming from the ps5, explorer notes are server sided and stored on your character files. You cant see them while playing on the ps5, but still have it on the server

The same thing happens if buy a new pc to play ark, map/pings/notes will be gone but remains on the server you play

Something is not saving your data on the ps5

[clever tendon]

I could try killing my character off and respawn a new one would that work

[silver thistle]

Anyone know why I can't place structures on herb island ? Keeps saying no ground or snap point, ? I know we can build here I have an entire base here already but I can't place foundations ..

[lapis quest]

Is there any way to verify files on the console?

You should start on that

[clever tendon]

How do you verify files on PS5

Verifying the game licenses and see what that does

I believe that worked thank you

[scarlet yarrow]

How i can get the Cheaper server asa

Netrado is to expensive

[ebon topaz]

does any1 know of a mod for ASA to function basically like dino storage V2 did from ASE? like the picking up newborn automatically, the soulgun, the deleting cryos, all that, and also a mod that has a transfer tool, like the one from SS and S+ from ASE, i have a mod which has the pulling system, but not the transfer tool

[silver bluff]

Yo guys, so I have a ark server and whenever I place something in the game.ini folder and restart the server, the folder is empty again?

[ebon topaz]

right now i have a mod that does some of the Dino storage V2, but some of it is locked behind tek tier

[ebon topaz]

are you saving when exiting?

[celest halo]

All changes to that file need to happen with the server off

[silver bluff]

Ty

[silver bluff]

It didnt work

[silver bluff]

Yea

/ home / container / ShooterGame / Saved / Config / LinuxServer / Game.ini

Trying to insert this server change: bDisableStructurePlacementCollision=true

Or does it need to be like:

[/script/shootergame.shootergamemode]
bDisableStructurePlacementCollision=true

[celest halo]

Has to be under that heading

[silver bluff]

Makes sense

[lusty valley]

Hello everyone. I'm looking for an admin or server creator who will share her/his experiences with me.

[alpine mountain]

Anybody use windowsgsm for server management?

[distant hearth]

super cryo storage is virtually same as dinov2 far as i can tell

[ebon topaz]

ai thanks

imma check it out now, see if its what i want

[distant hearth]

how are you trying to download it , just typing in the steam commad window? maybe try this but change the install directory part "C:\Arkserver1" to where you want it to go
+force_install_dir "C:\Arkserver1" +login anonymous +app_update 376030 validate +quit

[sacred holly]

i found out that the problem is i need more storage

i gave it like 32 or 64

now 128 gb

[waxen tree]

hi guys, we are trying to setup a ASA server, everything works but the gamesettings are not pulling through even though they are visible in the ini file

weird thing it is picking up certain things, like tame rate and gatherrate, but XP rate stays vanille while we have set it to 5

any ideas because im at a loss atm

we tried as well with singleplayer ini files, but no avail

[distant hearth]

if its a nitrado server, stop it, wait 5 mins. make the change in gameusersetting.ini
xpmultiplier=1 is default , change that to 5. save it, wait 1 min . restarts server.

if that dont work, double check you dont have a duplicate line an make sure in the general settings you dont have it running one th offical rate dynamic config fileds

[waxen tree]

its an self hosted server

but ill check that general settings

[distant hearth]

self host wont have that

i might of mixed up where it goes, just gonna load beacon an check for you

[waxen tree]

oh greaat, many thanks

[distant hearth]

checked , i was right first time it goes in gameusersetting.ini
under the header
[serversettings]
XPMultiplier=1

its likely already in there an just needs changing to 5.
Id check you dont have a duplicate and obv stop the server, make the change,save it , then restart

[waxen tree]

scanned it

no duplicates

we used chandywerks ark ascended docker from gtihub

FYI

[distant hearth]

try this line in game.ini under this header
[/script/shootergame.shootergamemode]
GenericXPMultiplier=1

if its there ,change to 5 , if its not there add it

im sure it shud be xpmultiplier in gus.ini though, unsure why it not works for you

[waxen tree]

were at a loss too

im almost willing just to rent out a server because of this, the XP grind is really too hard in vanilla

but I cannot stand the fact that I cannot get it working 😄

im pretty sure its something stupid we are overlooking

[distant hearth]

the server manager isnt writing over the ini by chance?
i do mine manually so no idea what that manager is actually doing

alterantively you can add them in indvidually in game.ini but the global one shud work ,

BossKillXPMultiplier=5
CaveKillXPMultiplier=5
ExplorerNoteXPMultiplier=5
GenericXPMultiplier=5
HarvestXPMultiplier=5
KillXPMultiplier=5
SpecialXPMultiplier=5
TamedKillXPMultiplier=1
WildKillXPMultiplier=5```

[waxen tree]

still nothing

it is driving me crazy, im gonna try another container

[sacred kestrel]

Who's got the secret to disabling this cosmetic stuff so I can disable item transfers. Tried ticking the button in general setting but didn't work. And then I added the disablecustomcosmetics in game user ini.
Still shows up in game

[green junco]

Anyone able to help me with a config?

I’m trying to get a dino to only spawn on carnivore island but I’m not sure if the config I put in my game.ini file is correct

[alpine mountain]

your best bet is to show your config line for that action and if it is wrong, someone will be sure to correct you lol

[karmic nest]

Turrets on my server are hitting 6x the official damage. Any idea why? Dinoturretdamage is set to 1

[fiery jungle]

does singleplayer settings lower the levels of dinos spawning in?

[sharp siren]

it is an occasional bug, their stat component failed to load/spawn properly. it should be fixed by a reload, or by uncryo for tames

[steady kettle]

My member got pinned by an invincible manta lmao

[sharp siren]

how does a manta pin something

it should also be incapable of doing damage if it has no stats, or at least very little..

[wise kindle]

Yes. Be sure to set MaxDifficulty=False or it will be very low levels.

[bleak ivy]

singleplayer settings itself shouldn't change levels.

[rose frigate]

The crossplay version of svartalfheim is in a boot loop for me suddenly after restarting it. This whole situation with a bunch of versions of the same map is a bit crazy. I've paid for the premium version, I should be able to host it for my players. The crossplay version hasn't gotten an update in who knows how long. It should have the full map by now, excluding the caves.

[timber goblet]

this isnt a server setup question but i have no access to any servers in the 'join ark' menu on ASE anyone know how to fix this?

[green junco]

So I’m trying to spawn this creature only out on Dead Island. So far I have seen any spawn but is it because the spawn rate is at 0.02? Or do I have something incorrect?

ConfigAddNPCSpawnEntriesContainer=(NPCSpawnEntriesContainerClassString="DinoSpawnEntriesMonsterIsland_C",NPCSpawnEntries=((AnEntryName="DragonMountain",EntryWeight=0.25,NPCsToSpawnStrings=("Dragon_Character_BP_Fire_C"))),NPCSpawnLimits=((NPCClassString="Dragon_Character_BP_Fire_C",MaxPercentageOfDesiredNumToAllow=0.02)))

[green junco]

Maybe set your setting to all maps. There was a similar issue on ASA

[timber goblet]

yeah brother i just realized my stupid mistake, i had the bottom left drop box set to favourites

[jovial walrus]

Anyone know if they are working on that we on a uofficielle server can keep the cera we have as a mod

[fleet ermine]

So we have a map clustered in.

Shows all the other maps on the list.
But uploaded items are only available on that map, none of the others.

(Map is a clone of our current map, used to retrieve lost characters.
So uploads/downloads etc are all enabled.

The other 3 maps are all linked, uploaded items available across all 3.
Just not the test server we use to load backups on.

It seems to be isolated for it's "ARK Data" (uploads).

Any ideas as to why this may be?

[livid reef]

does your test server have the same cluster override dir?

[silk pond]

i cannot join my server anymore it crashes or it lets me in the server (i can hear the game sounds) then it goes black and i get returned again and it says that the conenction to the host is lost. any way to fix it

[green junco]

Verify files

Make sure mods are updated

[warped basalt]

whats wrong with the search funktion on ark hp ? (Please wait 1,794,738 seconds before attempting another search) wtf

anyway i was searching for a solutution to fix my widescreen. now its just cutted on top and bottom. just zoomed in. that not what widescreen support is ment with 😦

[silk pond]

verify files like in steam?

[green junco]

Yes

[trim slate]

dunno if this is the right channel to ask in, but is there a way to transfer a character from an xbox account to steam account? i'm playing on my own unofficial server.
it's ASA

[jaunty heron]

no

best you can do is cheat everything to copy it

[trim slate]

yea i was thinking abt that

thanks anyways

[lime bolt]

Anyone else have issue with Patches just not coming down to steam sometimes. Steam CMD seems to be much slower than using Steam Tools itself, so i typically resort to using Steam Tools and then copying the files out. But this time we are several minor patches behind and nothing is coming down. SteamDB is consistent with this, shows it hasn't been touched. for 3 days.

Still on 43.12,
.13-.16 have not come down

Its like they are pushing to a different branch in the depot other than the public one

This used to have almost a regular cadence, like public branch would always be one behind nitrado, and 2 or 3 behind official. Now its totally random, sometimes we get the patches instantly same time as official, sometimes we are days behind. I see people getting them though, and I am not sure how, usually its just a few servers, maybe they have access to other branches.

[turbid pawn]

@lime bolt Having the same issue, especially with server only patches

[jaunty vortex]

they are pushing to a different branch. ASALive has been updated, Public is still on the previous patch

[lime bolt]

Thats what I feared, its fine I suppose most of the time. Occasionally they update client with major but dont update public server for hours, so then you are just waiting 4-8 hours or whatever. Can be frustrating when serious things are in patchnotes though going out but can't do anything about it.

[celest halo]

Minor patches are a crap shoot on when/if unofficial will get them

[lime bolt]

I feel like it was never bad like this on ASE though

[celest halo]

It was

I remember waiting hours for a major patch on ASE

[lime bolt]

thats true

but the whole several days for minors thing?

[celest halo]

There has been minors unofficial has skipped over

I run my own bot to check steam for releases and only check WC's patchnotes when my bot says there's an update

[lime bolt]

Ok well then how about the weirdest part for me. Sometimes SteamCMD doesn't get the patch for hours even though it is in public and it comes down to SteamTools. Has anyone but me experienced that?

[celest halo]

They probably checking different steam server

[jaunty vortex]

public has updated

[lime bolt]

Thanks John!

[celest halo]

It takes steam a little bit once they get it to send it out to all there download servers

[lime bolt]

I must just be the most unlucky ever on steamCMD this time around. It's so far behind usually that i built my own process to savegame, backup my whole directory, robocopy the new files from steamtools directory, then boot back up

[jaunty vortex]

I keep checking these links. One is for server, one is for client

#unofficial-setup-help message

[celest halo]

I normally can get it from steamcmd withing 1 min of steamdb showing it updated

Or right after my bot finds it updated on steams api

[jaunty vortex]

you have a bot to check? Show off 😄

[lime bolt]

Nice

[celest halo]

I have bots to check for updates on all my dedicated servers (ark, palworld, valheim)

[jaunty vortex]

are they yours or are they publicly available?

[celest halo]

Mine they part of my server bots that monitor if servers are up and who is on them. There is a game update notifier on GitHub I did use in the past befor making my bots, I'll dm ya the link

[agile summit]

Any experienced coders/people who have setup or made servers around to give me a helping hand lmk dm me please :))

[livid latch]

I haven't played for over a week and cant see my server now...worked before np...any ideas?

[cosmic stone]

Anyone know how to hide an engram from ASA, I have this in the game.ini and it is running fine but it just wont hide:

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

[distant hearth]

try this,

OverrideNamedEngramEntries=(EngramClassName="EngramEntry_ModernBed_C",EngramLevelRequirement=999,EngramPointsCost=1,EngramHidden=True,RemoveEngramPreReq=False)

[cosmic stone]

Had that before but Ill try again hoping I maybe fat fingered it or something

yeah no go, not sure why though

but thanks for trying

[distant hearth]

some stuff just doesnt work in asa no idea why, like stackin golden hesporanis egg , just cant get it to work

[rancid pagoda]

Can anyone tell me how to fix my character having invisible inventory?

[distant hearth]

easy , delete the game, go play something else .....
if you want punishment ,
1- leave render range in game an come back
2-kill self in game
3-relog into game
4-switch it off an on again (at the plug for atleats 5 mins)
5=delete the shit and download again
6-if the above failed to work , no idea

[lapis merlin]

i have a cluster of 2 servers. They're setup the same with the same mods but one server the mod work and the other the mod does not work. what could cause this?

[distant hearth]

cud be something as simple as it works on island map but not on scorched earth/any other modded map.
cud be it needs reinstalling on the server it dont work on....
wud need alot more details, start with , what doesnt work?.... it crashes the server or ? what did you try sdo far to fix it? self host or nitrado server?

[lapis merlin]

server is stable. when you click join server it shows all of the mods your server has. the one thats not working doesn't show the mod but in game you can see the engram but you cant unlock it.

[distant hearth]

try this when logged into the server, use your password to get in admin.

cheat RedownloadModsOnServerRestart
cheat DoExit```

[lapis merlin]

thanks ill try it

[distant hearth]

it will force the mods to redownload on restart basically giveing them a clean install and hopefully fix any corrupted files that might cause the issue

im not sure if nitrado respond to the doexit command, you failed to mention if was nitrado

[lapis merlin]

yes its nitrado

[distant hearth]

kk if it doesnt shut down the server after you enter it , you will have to manually go into there u/i anf restart the server

[lusty valley]

Does anyone know how to add /jump command to server ?

[final beacon]

Had update at 12 today and my server is still at 14.3 instead of 14.6. What's going on? I've restarted it and everything I've known to do before in the past and nothing. And it is nitrado

Can you add premium mods on ps5? I see the category in game but it’s just blank with no mods showing.

[echo pecan]

premium mods are not supported on playstation yet

[hollow hemlock]

Has anyone figured out the vanilla hemogoblinc cocktail engram entry? We're sticking with using the mod Ceratos so we disabled the vanilla ones from spawning, but now trying to hide the vanilla engram since we've heard it can't be used to tame the mod ones, and there's basically no way to distinguish which is which.

[livid latch]

I haven't played for over a week and cant see my server now...worked before np...any ideas?

[hollow hemlock]

have you patched your server in that time frame? there was a major patch exactly a week ago - if your server hasn't patched, but your client has, you won't be able to see the server in the list

[stone nest]

I could be very very wrong but back on unofficial servers on ASE I swore there was a server that all their egg incubations were the same timer wise no matter what the Dino or what the level. Is that a thing or did I have a fever dream 😂

[junior gull]

Question is there a limit to how many mods a server can have or a size cap for a dedicated server

[slender gate]

Hello,
I have a question about the custom skins - how can I use them? I have my own server and they don't work there.
The skins are installed on the server and client.

I know that you have to drag the skins onto the blueprint but it doesn't work...

[silk pond]

yo i tried it doesn' t work

How do you change the stats dinos get when imprinted?

for example the amount of health a dino gets when imprinte

[willow dune]

Is anyone on PSN with mods working

[distant hearth]

you cant change the amount from an imprint , but you can change the amount an imprinted dino gets per level added with this iirc, see the link for examples
PerLevelStatsMultiplier_DinoTamed_Affinity[<attribute>]=<multiplier>
https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Server_configuration#PerLevelStatsMultiplier

[agile summit]

So for example, if i imprint a dino 100% and it goes from 17k hp to 35k theres no way to change the amount to say for example 17k to 20k?

[distant hearth]

not that i know of

[echo pecan]

maybe
BabyImprintingStatScaleMultiplier

[distant hearth]

@agile summit this, i was wrong sorry

[distant hearth]

tottally forgot about that one, its not something i ever change, thx for reminder

[agile summit]

Got it thank you @echo pecan @distant hearth

what is the deafult 1.0?

[distant hearth]

yes , 0.5 would half the amount added, 2.0 wud double it according to beacon

[agile summit]

perfect thanks

I always do the updates when steam starts,so it SHOULD be up to date...plus the start.bat file has a force check for updates line in it...gonna check the versions.

[onyx gale]

I got a suggestion today from a player in my community stating we should turn hibernation/ stasis off on our unofficial server? I would imagine that would be a nightmare for lag and latency, beyond what we already experience with this game. Has anyone else done this? He claims he's never played on a server that intentionally had stasis activated? I've never heard of a server that didn't...

[pearl narwhal]

If I want to change the egg hatch speed and maturation speed. Can I just change them then do a restart or do I have to take the server down before and after

[dusk pebble]

Ark only uses 7777 correct and it should be under the UDP protocol, just want to make sure I am doing this right since I deleted my first server and am trying to help another friend set it up on his system

[distant hearth]

dedicated servers automatically have stasis disabled , its only non dedicated and singleplayer use true stasis

[distant hearth]

stop server, wait 5mins, makre the changes, save it, restart server

[distant hearth]

7777udp is the default port yes .. only one it needs forwarded to join an play it . sending u a txt guide i wrote on setting up asa server

[pearl narwhal]

Okay cheers, was hoping we could do a quick restart

[dusk pebble]

Ok

[distant hearth]

dont be tempted t rush, nitrado servers you need to wait the times for the ui to update to thew server

[pearl narwhal]

Oh makes sense, cheers

[onyx gale]

So why would this player believe it's off on my unofficial server?

[distant hearth]

no idea, its a dedeicated server right?

[onyx gale]

Yeah, it's my unofficial Nitrado server

[distant hearth]

probs player doesnt understand how they work then ....

[onyx gale]

Fair enough lol

[vale swan]

Friends, the server gets stuck while starting up, what should not be done? The timing of the server startup pattern is not visible.

My server does not appear in the servers list

[copper oar]

I watch memory/cpu usage, when it calms cpu and has about 6-7gb of ram, it shows up not long after. the window doesn't ever show activity past the first bit

[vale swan]

Is there any chance you can help me in detail on this issue?

[vale swan]

.

[copper oar]

just ask your questions here. I needed to set up multihome ip, open ports in system firewall, forward ports from router, then it was listed.

if I used -automanagedmods it hung after downloading the mods, but I fixed that with a symlink, now it's good

[vale swan]

Unfortunately, I don't know exactly what the problem is as this is my first time opening it.

[vale swan]

I don't want to use mods. I want to play Ragnarok with a few friends.

[copper oar]

what are you on, and what have you done?

[vale swan]

I am trying to open a server with the Ark Manager application from VDS. I say start but it doesn't work.

[copper oar]

"Ark Server Manager"? VDS is windows? do they give you an IP, just wide open?

[vale swan]

Yes they give a rope and it is wide open. windows vds

SteamSocketsOpenSource: gethostname failed ()

I get an error saying

[copper oar]

so should be basically DMZ'd, no need to forward ports..
not familiar with the server manager unfortunately, running on linux

does your VDS have multiple network adapters? You'd need to do multihome setting then

that error is from client?

[vale swan]

I don't know, unfortunately I don't have enough information on this subject.

[copper oar]

check that ports for ark are open. you may need to do something in windows firewall or even possibly a vds dashboard, depending on provider

[mental rain]

does anyone know why my server does not show up on the server page.. BUT.. when you type the name of my server and hit refresh it shows up

[agile summit]

I've setup custom drops that work on my island server however when i try to paste them over to se they aren't working

anyone know why

[distant hearth]

s.e uses different drops to the island

[agile summit]

Ah i see, i'm using beacon and i dont see any way to switch the custom drops for scorched earth?

[distant hearth]

at the top in middle , is maps button, click it and change to scortched earth

[agile summit]

will that auto change my saved drops to the coding for se?

so i can paste the new exported game ini in the nitrado scorched ini/

[distant hearth]

no u will need to edit the scorched drops

[agile summit]

right got it now thank you very much

[wooden tartan]

Is it fine if I run both servers with the same rcon port? Or will this mess something up?

[distant hearth]

each server will need its own rconport if you are going to use rcon to communicate with them, if you arent going to use rcon, just leave it out

[vale swan]

It says the server is started, but it doesn't appear in the servers section. What is the reason?

[eager juniper]

Hey, can anyone help me with an Error Message a friend of mine gets, after he tries joining our server?

[obsidian widget]

Let him join multiple times that will work

If it didn’t work then idk
