hey guys, are there any inherent risks using -converttostore on an established cluster? anything I should look out for or be mindful of before running this process?

help....

[2024.12.03-04.25.58:590][ 0]ERROR!!! FAtlasSaveManager::LoadOperationSql: SQL database is corrupt and the save game is compromised! Exiting...

[feral marsh]

I have a slight problem - I own a private, dedicated server on my own PC; today, I noticed there are two servers that show up in my transmitter that I have zero association with and I do not know who owns them, or why they are present as an option for my cluster to transfer to. They are password protected, and I was kicked when I tried. But...how do I get rid of them?

One of my friends suggested it could be that they have the same cluster ID; would I just need to change the cluster ID? Would that impact my servers?

Should I just ignore it?

[bleak ivy]

it probably is the cluster ID. remove everything from upload and then change the ID. nothing should happen in game as long as upload is empty.

[feral marsh]

How do I remove everything from upload (sorry if that's a silly question)

[bleak ivy]

have everybody download what they uploaded.

[feral marsh]

Oh, gotcha. Thank you!

Another, separate question - I added the AstralArk custom map on an additional server for the cluster a couple of weeks ago. Steam says it is active, and I've made sure all the settings, as well as cluster ID and whatnot match up with the rest of the cluster, but it does not appear in the transmitter. Is there something special I need to do when adding a new map?

[brisk holly]

we did what it says on the pinned message, i got the ip and pasted in the single player mode open ( ) but it didnt work, IP:PORT is the port just the remote port? Do I combine it with the ip the website gave me?

after a while the game also says host connection timeout

[gentle raptor]

Hey, i've tried installing the files to make a private server (which i've done many times in the past) but for some reason it just says
ERROR! Failed to install app '2430930' (No subcription)
it's only done this now and i cant update my other server
the Steam CMD is version 1726605427

not sure if i missed something about it or not

[kind moon]

hey having some issues with aberration map it keeps crashing every 10 min ive ran out of things i can think of to fix it anyone had or having the same issue?

[main trail]

anyone knows what setting lets you spawn in ratholes ?

PLS

[high cloud]

Hey guys can any1 tell me how do i make dinos get tamed faster,faster breeding (reduce the time Babys take to grow up, how fast the egg incubates)

[arctic sage]

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

[high cloud]

doesn't answer my question at all thank you for the amazing help experience you are offering me today

[arctic sage]

i mean, the questions you asked, how to do what you want is written there.
then all you have to do is add them to your server, or change the same settings in your single player
i don't know all of the settings from memory, so yes i'm not going to search them for you
or are you looking how to actually find where the setting have to be changed?

EggHatchSpeedMultiplier Default value: 1.0
Value type: float
Scales the time needed for a fertilised egg to hatch. A higher value decreases (by percentage) that time.

Single Player Settings

If bUseSingleplayerSettings=True than the following options are applied additionally to the configured (or default) values:
Option Base value Additional multiplier
BabyCuddleIntervalMultiplier ini x 0.17
BabyMatureSpeedMultiplier ini x 35.0
AllowRaidDinoFeeding True N/A
bAllowUnlimitedRespecs True N/A
CropGrowthSpeedMultiplier ini x 4.0
EggHatchSpeedMultiplier ini x 9.0
HairGrowthSpeedMultiplier ini x 0.69999999
MatingIntervalMultiplier ini x 0.15000001
PerLevelStatsMultiplier_DinoTamed_Add[0] ini x 3.5714285
PerLevelStatsMultiplier_DinoTamed_Add[8] ini x 3.5714285
PerLevelStatsMultiplier_DinoTamed_Affinity[0] ini x 2.2727273
PerLevelStatsMultiplier_DinoTamed_Affinity[8] ini x 2.2727273
PerLevelStatsMultiplier_DinoTamed[0] ini x 2.125
PerLevelStatsMultiplier_DinoTamed[8] ini x 2.3529413
RaidDinoCharacterFoodDrainMultiplier ini x 0.40000001
TamingSpeedMultiplier ini x 2.5
UseCorpseLifeSpanMultiplier 6.0 N/A

Where ini means the default or already set option is scaled by the value in the Additional multiplier column, e.g.:

If BabyMatureSpeedMultiplier has not been set or left at default value of 1.0, with single player settings the final value would be 35.0.
If BabyMatureSpeedMultiplier has been set at 2.0 instead, with single player settings the final value would be 70.0.

all that information is right there on that page

[high cloud]

This is a channel named setup-help if i asked a question obviously i want some1 to help me and just sending in a link doesnt without any text ,isnt helpfull at all, not a very nice way to speak to other

[high cloud]

Thats helpfull thank you

[arctic sage]

maybe i was short, true, but the question you asked for, was right there, i even went to the effort to search for / check if it was the server settings, and then direct link you to it.

[arctic sage]

just a copy paste from that link

[brisk topaz]

Hey, anyone know how to fix a mutation cap please?

[arctic sage]

breed until the mutations turn negative, or use clean females

[brisk topaz]

I know that lol. Wildcard said we can now apply a limit max on unofficial but i didn't find the command line

[arctic sage]

oh you want to cap how many mutations you can have, i did not understand that from your question, and nope sorry don't know that command

[brisk topaz]

Np bro, thanks

[lucid solstice]

Yeah, they said that. But I haven't seen that anywhere and I haven't heard anyone saying they figured it out

[distant hearth]

they all said we cud add extra levels etc, yet we cant lol

[dense badger]

Hello I'm trying to set my dedicated server up like official setting but when you make a craft char a 50 armour BP saddle comes out with 300 amour can anyone help with this ?

Not quite sure what the code or settings would be for this

[distant hearth]

gameusersetting.ini

[serversettings]
ClampItemStats=True

game.ini

[/script/shootergame.shootergamemode]
ItemStatClamps[1]=19800
ItemStatClamps[3]=19800

Thank you

@distant hearth is there a different code for armour?

[distant hearth]

stat clamp 1 is saddles an armour , all info can be found here for future reference ,

[gloomy hinge]

Hi all quick question, setting up a cross platform server for myself, my nephew and his friend, his friend is getting a PC sorted this weekend but was thinking of using his XBOX to play this Thursday and switch to windows PC next week. Are the XBOX characters and the windows ARK version the same, I presume they are but want to be sure.

[wise kindle]

If you are looking at the non steam version (Windows 10 Xbox version) then yes, you can swap back and forth between pc and xbox. It will be the same character provided you are signed into the same Xbox account.

[gloomy hinge]

Brilliant thank you very much for confirming 👍

[rough brook]

Does anyone know how to increase the number of deco structures?🥺

[distant hearth]

probably comes under the games structure limit ,

gameusersetting.ini
TheMaxStructuresInRange=10500
was ase default , i think asa is less , double it an see if it helps, alter the value if the line is in the ini , add the line with altered value if its not .

[rough brook]

thank u , i will test it 🍀 😊

[wise kindle]

Whats the one that refers to the flag limit?
Pretty sure that one limits deco too.
Im on my phone so I cant search the config page.

[distant hearth]

good point,
IgnoreLimitMaxStructuresInRangeTypeFlag=true
@rough brook

[wise kindle]

Yeah that one might help.

I had to set that to allow more pumpkins to be placed in my pumpkin patch lol.

[rough brook]

ohhhh i will give it a try 😍 thank u so much

increasing the structure limit didn’t help much😭

[rough brook]

Is that in the Game.ini or the GUS.ini?

[wise kindle]

Is there another one with “flag” in it?
Was like numberofflags or something

You could set it to an int.

I cant find the one im looking for. God i hate phones.

[rough brook]

Oh, wrong message selected ^^

[distant hearth]

gus

[rough brook]

didnt find anything with flag in the gus

[distant hearth]

if not there, then u can add, always search for it first as you did though 🙂

[distant hearth]

not that i find with a search .. i do seem rem one with an int. too but prob confusing myself

[rough brook]

ok i try it ^^

[wise kindle]

I remember upping the number but the ini eludes me.

[distant hearth]

just went through 133 findings of structure an still nothing , so im gonna go with im mixing it up with a different setting lmao

[wise kindle]

Sounds good lol. I cant find it either.
Im gonna go further and say they removed it.
Yeah, I blame WC lol. Can’t possibly be my memory 😂

[rough brook]

aaaawwwww thaaaaank yooouuuu 💞

[distant hearth]

for reference in future, 99.9 % of server settings can be found here,
https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Server_configuration

[rough brook]

That helped, you guys instantly improved my mood 😅 🫶
thank u soooo much 😊

[rough brook]

thank youuu

[high cloud]

Can anyone pls tell me the name of the setting that maks wild dinos get tame faster ( not singleplayer ) (a public Server )

[silent yoke]

What is this one TheIsland_WP

Like the WP for the second ark map? The desert one?

[wise kindle]

WP is just an acronym for the official name. It’s literally the name of The Island map.

I believe it stands for WiP or Work in progress, but its never removed when they are done working on it.
Virtually every map has _WP in the name.

[left olive]

When changing the resource respawn radius would I want a lower number?

[distant hearth]

depends on what u wan to achieve,
here has most info ,
https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Server_configuration

[distant hearth]

the main thing to set it is ,
TamingSpeedMultiplier=1
thats default , higher numbers make it faster ,
wild dino food drain also effects it a bit
more info can be found here,
https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Server_configuration

[distant hearth]

ScorchedEarth_WP
as found here , https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Dedicated_server_setup#RAM

[high cloud]

I allready put that one on like =30 but it dons't change the amount of food it takes i dons't have any impact at all no matter if i higer or lower it i feel like its bugged or something

[distant hearth]

works fine for me,
check thats its in the correct place, under the correct header
that you dont have duplicate lines of it
and if on a nitrado server you arent using one of the official dynamic configs

[inner perch]

Ark unofficial server #14415 hosted by Nitrado .net if this is your server or you play on it please contact me

[sonic marsh]

Good evening, everyone. Our Steam server has never been findable by anyone that runs the Windows version of the game. Console players can always find us, but anyone using Windows, or using GeForce Now thru their Xbox cannot find us. Is there a setting that we have put in our ini that will allow those players to see our servers? Any help would be appreciated!

[wise kindle]

Im guessing this is Ark Ascended?

[olive talon]

Would have to be, Steam servers for ASE can't even be shown to consoles

[distant hearth]

it must be asa for console players to join a "steamserver" , not that one exists as such, stmcmd is just used to download the server software lolz

they shud be full crossplay by default, wud need to see start command line to know if there blocking win 10 users

id bet its a pvp server an has win store version of game blocked

[wise kindle]

Its more a “are you sure you are crossplay” question more than anything.

[distant hearth]

nitardo have check boxes for each platform last i saw ?
a clean server install from stmcmd is just full crossplay by default

[wise kindle]

ASA servers are almost never called “Steam servers”, so I HAVE to verify its ASA lol.

Yeah there are 4 checkboxes at the top of the main page.
Very very hard to miss them.

[distant hearth]

its a common misconcepion brought aboot buy you tubers aiming for clicks , they call it a steam server , yet its not lol . steam cmd or steam is just used to download the server software

[fathom wraith]

I have a new asa island server with the food drain set to 4, but when i compare the taming times with dodoex it is acting like it is at 8. Pve, use single player settings is false. Any ideas?

[distant hearth]

if its nitrado make sure you dont have the official dynamic config set

[wise kindle]

These kids with their you tubes and interwebs need to get off my lawn.

[distant hearth]

theres half dozen popularish youtube channels with how to set up your own asa server, all of them have mistakes or issues in them lolz

[fathom wraith]

It is my own server using ASADedicatesManager, I will search for that setting.

[distant hearth]

so much so , i wrote my own guide in notepad file to make it easier for people to do it lol

[distant hearth]

you wont have that setting,i said if its nitrado

[fathom wraith]

Ahh, I was thinking it maybe was a common ini setting.

[celest halo]

its just as bad as most people say they running the server with steamcmd (any gaming server dont need to be ark lmao) when asked how they starting the server

[distant hearth]

yep lolz, its becuase the youtubes dont explain its only used to install an update the server software

[celest halo]

wouldnt help much even if they did seeing how must put the steamcmd line to update servers in the servers start script, and most people dont know a sh/batch file can run multiple programs

[wise kindle]

Stoopid you tubes.

[distant hearth]

i actually prefer them seperate , i dont even know how to make it run the update and start server from same file batch file as i use such simple batch files with bare minimum .

can run into issues with just running the update and start on one simple batch file where it wont update( i assume it opens the server .exe before it can update) so wud need some sort delay or wait for server upadte to complete command

[celest halo]

mine are always sep also, server updates when i want it to, not when it feels like it because it got restarted lmao

[distant hearth]

that too lol, i dont want half the updates they give for pve servers and i certaintly dont want half he shit they release straight away that isnt tested an is broken

[celest halo]

yup, i even hold off on doing a server reboot just so it wont get some of the mod updates that get released

[distant hearth]

cyber structure has been update alot recently, if i ran servers like i did in ase it wud cause me issues, luckily just run test servers for my self still lol
everyone i knew that played ark cant cope with asa more bugs than the amamzon rain forest

[celest halo]

yup im 3 version behind on that right now lmao

and ASA dont have the issue ASE had, lest with ASA the client downloads the mod version the server is on so never a real rush to update the servers mods if its not something you waiting for a fix on

[distant hearth]

yea thats one good thing with the server checking with curseforge what version servers uses, till curseforge servers go down haha

i had planned renting a dedicated machine an running a cluster but literally no point as none of the people i played with are interested .
slightlly off topic but likely will end up trying out 7daystodie soon as im near finnished nightingale,
will have to see how good extinction is ,,,,,,,

[wise kindle]

7 Days needs x play servers. Thats all im saying.

[distant hearth]

i think its the future of most games, it can be done so no point not doing it

nightingale doesnt even have a console release yet, no ideas why not as i use xbox controller an it works fine

its ue5 game but i can run it 1080p, 60 fps, every setting high as it can go without my old beast even spinning up fans

[sonic marsh]

Yes, it's an ASA server. It is PvE, and hosted on our own hardware, not a Nitrado server. We are crossplay, as xbox and playstation players have played on our servers.

[distant hearth]

have the players that cant find it make sure they are using the right filters, player only servers ticked, top filters set to all , then search server name an hit refresh/enter

they cud also try joining with the open <ipadress>:<port> command , as a trouble shooting step

[sonic marsh]

They are doing that. They've posted screenshots in our discord of their server search screen.

[sonic marsh]

I will see if they can find it using that method, thank you for the tip 🙂

[distant hearth]

have some one test it with the command, search the server on battlemetrics to find what ip it runs on and the exact port its using

some servers manangers wernt setting the port properly , i think thats fixed now on most , plus if others can find it in game an join the port muxt be open

[sonic marsh]

I've let the player that was having issues know to try this and get back to me with the results. Thank you for your assistance!

[distant hearth]

np, if that doesnt work as a last resort , you cud try adding this as a start command -serverplatform=all , it shud not be needed though, they default to that setting

[halcyon radish]

how can i host my own server for ark1?

[fathom wraith]

Look into this: ASADedicatedManager

[halcyon radish]

were can i find it?

[fathom wraith]

asadedicatedmanager.eu, there are youtube vids on it. i was able to get it up and running in a hour

[wheat sluice]

Any answers..?

[distant hearth]

it wud be done by changing this line ,
overrideofficialdifficulty= x

x is times 30 so yea , 10 wud be 300 🙂

[peak sapphire]

Out of curiosity, do you have anti-cheat enabled? Not seen anyone mention it so figured I’d ask

[silent yoke]

Helllo I hope anyone is avaible to help me. I am using pterodactyl for my ASA server and recently I added a cluster ID to both of them. I tried to join them but they were asking me for the server password, I gave it and it says incorret password, which was weird because its the password, so I decided to disable the password and leave it for everyone, it still asking me for a password. I dont know which is it or what should I do

[native wave]

are you restarting the servers in between the changes? Verify you are changing the server password and not the server admin password

[silent yoke]

Yes I did

[native wave]

restart again

[silent yoke]

I already restart all the full linux server, node, and password

This is so weird

[native wave]

and make sure your changes are still in the file

or on the command line

[silent yoke]

Yes they are, But I think I found the pproblem

]Commandline: ScorchedEarth_WP?listen?MaxPlayers=5?SessionName="Korita Sorched"?Port=25596?QueryPort=27015?RCONPort=37015?RCONEnabled=True?ServerPVE=True?ServerPassword=-NoTransferFromFiltering -clusterid=xdd-ClusterDirOverride="/cluster"?ServerAdminPassword=korita123 -WinLiveMaxPlayers=5 -oldconsole -servergamelog -Port=25596

Look at the ServerPassword, it is setting the argument

I am going to put a space over there

That was!!

[native wave]

in the command line:
entries with ? proceeding them should not have a space between them
entries with - need a space on either side

all the ? entries should be appended to the end of the map name followed by all the - entries

[silent yoke]

So it should be like this?

fixed

make sure you're changing the server password, server admin password, and clusterid when you get it working properly and don't post the configuration in chat

[silent yoke]

It isnt the right one hahah

But thats working pretty much

[native wave]

ok good

[silent yoke]

Well, what happends when you travel into a new server? I did but it wasnt let me respawn so i leave and go the original but it appers as i dont have any survivor created....

[native wave]

on pterodactyl you have to setup a mount point and assign it to both servers

[silent yoke]

Done

It is working, I traveled but where my stuff is at??

[native wave]

if you transferred successfully you can spawn your survivor without recreating the character

[silent yoke]

So I didnt...

[native wave]

if it's prompting you to create one the destination server it cannot read the files created by the source server in the clusters directory

[silent yoke]

Something is wrong then

But what?

[native wave]

see my dm

[tepid berry]

I see lots of clusters saying that their decay timers are linked between the cluster, but I've done all sorts of google-fu, trying to figure this out -- how the hell is this accomplished?

[empty dagger]

It's not just saying, it's a reality.

It's a plug-in similar to the Cross-Server Chat

[lean rock]

our server won't boot because it ran out of drive space during a backup this morning, is there a fix for this or might we have to start over?

[tepid berry]

You shouldn't have to start over, the files are all still there. Free up some space and it should return to normal.

[tepid berry]

I don't understand the reply about "it's not just a saying"...I know that it's reality. I know that they're doing it. It's not a metaphor. I'm asking HOW they are doing it. which mod accomplishes this in ASA? -- Your reply was 100% unhelpful.

[olive talon]

Would looking through something like this work? I'm not sure how plug-ins work, having never used them myself.
https://ark-server-api.com/resources/categories/ark-survival-ascended.2/

[tepid berry]

Isn't that a shim between the server layer? Is that allowed?

[olive talon]

Plug-ins? They're allowed on player hosted servers yes. Nitrado doesn't allow them

[tepid berry]

I mean, those aren't plugins for ARK servers, because the servers don't support plugins. The "Server-API" is a 3rd party shim.

So the only way to do this is "unofficially"?

through a questionable server-shim API?

[olive talon]

Those are plug-ins for Ark servers, just not Nitrado's servers, like I said. You can't use plug-ins for most rented servers.

If you're on Nitrado, your only bet is to find a mod for it.

[tepid berry]

No, those are plugins for "ARK Server API"

Which is an executable that I have to run, which then runs my servers.

[olive talon]

....the API is the framework for the plug-ins. Any plug-ins need some sort of framework afaik.

[tepid berry]

And that API isn't developed by Wildcard.

[olive talon]

There isn't one developed by Wildcard.

[tepid berry]

Thank you.

Forest for the trees, sheesh.

[olive talon]

Had you wanted something that specific, you could have just asked, instead of being rude to other users attempting to help you.

Any plug-ins and API aren't made by Wildcard, same with majority of mods. They're community made.

Had there been something made by Wildcard, it would have been added to the wiki, pinned here, etc.

[tepid berry]

No, the mods are made possible through wildcard.

Through the development kit.

The "API" is the same as a cheat, the same as any other hack, which sits in between the server and the user.

It's intercepting server calls, and modifying them through a third party application.

[olive talon]

It's not a cheat, but regardless, you have your info. Have a great day.

[silent yoke]

Hello, I am having trouble setting up cluster for ARK ASA, anyone avaible to help me?

[wise kindle]

Holy unneeded arguments Batman.

[olive talon]

What else do you need help with? Just post your questions/issues here and someone can help when able.

[silent yoke]

Okay, every time that I travel acrosss servers, it shows me the respawn screen and when I click respawn, it sends to the create character screen, I already configuredd the mount (i am using pterodactyl), perms, folders, startup command, I dont know what could be wrongg

[distant hearth]

check all these settings in the gameusersetting.ini
they need to be set like this for full transfers

PreventDownloadDinos=False
PreventDownloadItems=False
PreventDownloadSurvivors=False
PreventUploadDinos=False
PreventUploadItems=False
PreventUploadSurvivors=False```

a common one people miss is notributedownloads, it must be flase or blocks all downloads to a map

[silent yoke]

Everything is there

:((

[distant hearth]

both servers?

[silent yoke]

yep

[distant hearth]

nothing in start command that cud block it ?

[silent yoke]

thiis iis my command line

]Commandline: ScorchedEarth_WP?listen?MaxPlayers=5?SessionName="Korita Sorched"?Port=25596?QueryPort=27015?RCONPort=37015?RCONEnabled=True?ServerPVE=True?ServerPassword=0000?ServerAdminPassword=korita123 -NoTransferFromFiltering -clusterid=xdd -ClusterDirOverride="/cluster" -WinLiveMaxPlayers=5 -oldconsole -servergamelog -Port=25596

you might wanna fix it first theres alot junk ,

everything i took out is not needed or used in asa ,
also shud it start with ]commandline or that just where you copy text

[silent yoke]

I already try that setting

And thats just from where I copy the text

[distant hearth]

what setting? i removed loads of shit

[silent yoke]

That startup command line

[empty dagger]

If it didn't work, why did you add more

[silent yoke]

I am not adding more, they the ones that was before, I just removed them to test, but I didnt so I put them backk

[distant hearth]

notransferfromfiltering is not going to help, that command is used when u dont have a clusterid .
watch the cluster directory an when you transfer an see if it moves data to there

[silent yoke]

Let me take it off

I am trying again with this as parameters

-clusterid="koritagod?" -Clusterdiroverride="c:\cluster?"

[distant hearth]

if that is where you have a folder created that can share info between both servers yes , im not entirely sure how thats handled in linux with pterydactl eggs

i wud expect even linux needs to know the directory of where the cluster folder is though , where before u wasnt specifying a drive path

[silent yoke]

I am using what you did to help someone with the same problem

[distant hearth]

that only works if thats how your system is setup and on a windows machine,
pretty sure linux uses a differnt file path an has the backslash the other way..
im not 100% sure as never used linux , just from what i seen others use

[silent yoke]

Yep well, my target mount is setup to /cluster
and the source mount is to /etc/pterodactyl/asa_cluster

So I guess that -Clusterdiroverride="c:\cluster?"

should be right

[distant hearth]

no lol, using that is telling it to look for the folder on a windows machine, in c drive at root folder cluster

yours wud need to be where your folder is ,
something like
-Clusterdiroverride="/etc/pterodactyl/asa_cluster"

[silent yoke]

oh

[distant hearth]

what i dont know is if u need to assign a drive letter in linux,
both server overrides must point at that same location

[silent yoke]

Lett me try that then

[austere rune]

does anyone know how to enable crossplay for geforce now users? geforce now users claim they can't see my servers.

[silent yoke]

Try number 25 haha loading

[silent yoke]

They should, they are playing as a microsoft store or steam

there is not difference between them

[olive talon]

As long as crossplay is enabled for steam/microsoft, it should work fine. I haven't had any issues with my friend on my Nitrado servers

[wise kindle]

Cloud gaming is buggy and every update is a game of roulette.

[silent yoke]

It didnt workk

I am going to cry hah

[distant hearth]

u will have to find someone more familiar with linux, its prob needing a drive path or that folder needs special permissions maybe so both can read write to it

[silent yoke]

Yep, I am going to wait if someone can reply it

[distant hearth]

if u see the other server from an ob, the cluster id is fine.
then after transfer you shud see some data in the cluster directory/folder that u set

[silent yoke]

what -Clusterdiroverride="c:\cluster?" actually does?

[distant hearth]

set the cluster directory/folder to the location C:\cluster? on a machine running windows o/s

[celest halo]

Knowing Linux not going to help much either, you need someone that knows pterodactyl. All the mounting/sharing of a folder between the eggs is done in there along with the permissions

[distant hearth]

ah i see, sort of makes sense as there like a virtual machine running each server right?

[celest halo]

Kind of. eggs are more like docker containers then VMS

Trying to setup an ark ascended server, ark evolved was easy. I thought this would be the same and it mostly is but why the hell is it not showing up in my favorites? Can you not join from favorites anymore? Not showing up in the unofficial tab either. I tried localhost and port 27015 as well as 7777 and 7778

start ArkAscendedServer.exe TheCenter_WP?listen?SessionName=TeoLuktar?ServerPassword=hobo1?ServerAdminPassword=hobo69?Port=7777?QueryPort=27015?MaxPlayers=8
exit

These are the parameters

It boots succesfully and that it is advertising for join

[distant hearth]

all though that sort of works its not really right, does show up if search in game for it an join that way ?
This is what asa server batch file shud look like,
start ArkAscendedServer.exe TheCenter_WP?SessionName=TeoLuktar?ServerPassword=hobo1?ServerAdminPassword=hobo69 -Port=7777 -winliveMaxPlayers=8
asa only uses the one game port for connecting players, set with -port=<portnumber> , 7777 udp is default , it doesnt need a peer port either , then next server can use 7778 and will by default if not set

[low bison]

Thanks ill try this

[distant hearth]

i mean it shud of been working before but better to keep it simple an right

[pliant acorn]

Can someone tell me how I can cluster on 2 root servers?
I see the maps in the cluster, I can also travel, but I can't download my character, even though downloading is allowed.

[distant hearth]

if the server run from two seperte .exe you need a shared cluster folder/directory that both servers have set the same an can read/write too , set with -Clusterdiroverride="<the directory/folder you want to use "
i.e
-Clusterdiroverride="c:\mycluster"
wud set the servers to use a folder at the root of c drive called mycluster

Quotations arent strictly needed but i do it by habbit as it wont recognise any file path with spaces in other wise

if the servers are on differnt machines u will need to figure out a way to have them share a folder from one of them

[pliant acorn]

yes, its on different machines, but i dont know how i can share a folder

[distant hearth]

thats gonna depend on the location of the two machines , what o/s they run etc etc, google wud be best help id think.
might be possible with some sort cloud storage, maybe even one drive on windows

[leaden cedar]

Hello guys, do some of you, know why its like 0 giga and 0 carcha on the map ? I use listdinos to be sure, and i do 5-6 destroywilddinos, still no giga and carcha spawn

[wise kindle]

Answered in Nitrado discord btw.

[low bison]

Okay I have been troubleshooting for way too long now it just won't work. It starts up fine, no errors, says it started up successfully but no matter what I do I can't find the server nor join it via console commands or favorites. It's not responding. Is the query port for ascended still 27015? And rcon port 27020?

Primal data takes 0 seconds every time which I don't know if it should, that's the only thing I can see that's weird when starting the server comparted to evolved

Guys, is your game crashing a lot in Aberration?

My console is the Xbox series s, it can't run the game well?

I am having trouble getting a Club Ark server running (with Proton Linux/containers). I have everything else running and working clustered (Island/SE/Center/Aberration), but Club Ark does not want to work. It just hangs after "Full Startup".

[humble thicket]

I gave up trying to run aberration on my series s. Moved back to the island.

[broken halo]

Favorite doesn't work for search hasn't for a while even in ase I'm assuming ur self hosted and not nitrado so search by name of server in search field all other options leave set to default any. Also make sure you have player server box checked in lower right or you won't find it

[wise kindle]

Tbh the series S cant handle the map and WC shouldnt advertise that it can. It cant handle alot of maps tbh. Many mod maps are too much for it.
You have to swap to an X, then it runs like a dream.

[broken halo]

I have Xbox players on my cluster they don't seem to have an issue

I should ask what series they run

I've tried becon but I'm so lost however.

[still crag]

hello i run a server as well i can send you a video link that honestly discribes beacon to a tea you just have to kinda follow along, im not too great at explaing

That would be helpful ! My players my server have been really waiting for me to fix drops

idk if anything for nitardo have changed as i dont run my server myself anymore but this should help if not let me know

o

???

[humble thicket]

Thankyou ❤️ I'll look. I'm running half my cluster, the other half is omega maps that my friends runs

[low bison]

I have tried all that. I think if anything it should be joinable by console before I see it in the server search. I have started my own servers for a bunch of games for years but this is the single time I don't have a clue what to do. Its not even responding on my localhost

[round raft]

Is there any command in the settings to make you kill your dinosaur if you don't want it without killing your partner by friendly fire?

[heavy pagoda]

does anyone know how to fix "failed to connect" for my friend on xbox joining my non dedicated on microsoft store? on surival evolved

[low bison]

Does ark ascended servers not have DefaultGameUserSettings.ini? I can only find the saved game specific one, can I change settings like XP multiplier there instead or does it have to be inside DGUS.ini like it did in evolved and if so do I have to create it myself?

[celest halo]

Settings are changed in GUS or game depending on the setting, there is no default files

[cinder valley]

hey guys i set up an ase single server modded running and all everything is fine the mods are running well the things i put are running well except one thing the "game.ini" file i put the multipliers i want there and the imprint and all that stuff but when i boot up the server it doesnt work none of it works. (update: when i checked that file after i started up the server everything in it got deleted???)

[still crag]

i just did a dino wipe anyone know how long it takes for dinos to start respawning???

[thorn spear]

anyone want to help me set up a server from my pc for my friend and I to play on

[wise kindle]

Some dinos respawn almost immediately, others such as gigas or titans can take up to 30+ minutes.

Best to just be patient and let it go and come back later. A watched pot will never boil so they say.

[spiral palm]

Is there a way to increase the max level of dinos rewarded in club ark? It seems max level is 224 (tamed 150), but my cluster runs lvl 449 (tamed 300) dinos. so basically any dinos rewarded in Club ark is useless to my cluster.

[distant hearth]

nope , they just are what they are

[spiral palm]

{sigh} guess can use them for their colors....

[distant hearth]

maybe they will change it one day , we can only hope

[spiral palm]

hope so. thanks for the infos

[low bison]

Every time I restart my server my character loses everything in its inventory and I have to choose where I spawn again as if I died. The level stays so not all progress is lost. Is there any setting that could fix it?

It's not that I die when offline either, since it always happens even if I am 100% safe

[latent quartz]

Hi all silly newbie question for my nitrado server but how do I get my players to be able to level up enough to use tek gear? Says level 1200 and we can only get to 105 without doing the bobs ark stuff

[wise kindle]

What item says 1200?

They unlock with boss fights that require minimum levels varying from 90-100 typically. Only way this changes is thru settings alterations.

[wise kindle]

Im going to guess the item is the vanilla cryopod. This is visible to get around a bug with pods won from Club Ark. If so, id ignore it. You dont want it anyway.

[latent quartz]

Ah ok so I have the astraeos map only atm and we found Medusa and killed her but I don’t know of any other bosses unless I could spawn others in admin?

So seems you need more maps to complete the end game stuff?

[peak sapphire]

That or you can add in a config that auto unlocks engrams including tek at a specific player level. You’d still need to do bosses to obtain higher amounts of element. https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Server_configuration#EngramEntryAutoUnlocks

[silent yoke]

Is there a way to increase maturation speed of therz?

[latent quartz]

Your the best

[peak sapphire]

No problem. I went the lazy route and have all engrams unlock as I level up but that maybe considered too much cheese for you ha

[latent quartz]

Nah we’re a month into the game and learning a lot of new every time I ask Ty again. Loving the game and the community!

[peak sapphire]

Definitely worth reading up on that server configuration page. You’ll learn a lot there but you may still need to call in here to help understand how some of them work.

[peak sapphire]

I’ve not seen anywhere that allows you to fine tune a specific dino for maturation speed, just a global one.

[young minnow]

At the moment, Astraeos has only one boss, but more will be added in future updates. We got around the engram issue by making ini changes to the auto unlock engrams and unlocking the ones that aren't currently available on the map at level 105.

Alternatively, I was able to spawn the brood mother and monkey bosses for the community and after defeating them the players got the tekgrams, but the dragon did not spawn.

[warped yarrow]

Does anyone know a fix to why my game brings me to Xbox dashboard when I try join an unofficial

[bronze tulip]

Admin commands after admin login and setcheatplayer are not working for me on my dedicated server. After I setcheatplayer all of the server and admin like stats appear on my screen, but any commands like god, fly, etc will not work. The password is set in the ini, has no special characters, admin login has been enabled, console access in the game was turn on after trying it without it on and also tried after. Commands typed in the console access do not work either.

What causes this, or what am I missing?

[north sparrow]

im trying to disable using gamma in console for PvE server, but if ill add DisablePVEGamma into game.ini, ppl r still able to use it, any help please?

[placid apex]

I have a server that was running Svartalfheim, then I started Folgar for a change. I see folders for both in the SavedArks folder. Trying to switch back to Svartalfheim is resulting in a new game with a new Svartalfheim_wp.ark file being created in my FOLGAR folder. Am I missing something obvious?

[wise kindle]

If you are on Nitrado you can just tell the server to "Start with" that svart file, otherwise the game will create new.

[placid apex]

Self hosting, used WindowsGSM to install the server. Did Island, Center, Svart, and Folgar and new folders were created for each.

[wise kindle]

Are you tried deleting the new one? I dont self host but when I have to restore a map, if the game cant readily see the correct .ark map file it will create new. Its usually a matter of timing on the first start up.

[placid apex]

Might be it. Is there a command I'm missing to ref a certain saved ark location? I assumed it was tied to the "map name"

[wise kindle]

Should be the same, if you still have the svart folder it should see it on second start up.

The first time it can get confused. When I swap maps the first startup is just the game loading in the map mod. The second start up should load in the correct files. At least thats how it works for me in Nitrado.

[placid apex]

Thanks I'll try.

[wise kindle]

If that doesnt work, someone here who selfhosts will be along.

[distant hearth]

when starting the svart server, make sure the name is correct, easy to make mistake, make sure mod id is correct

If all else fails move the folders to a safe place , then once u get svart loaded an working, move the saved data back into the folder it creates

Anyone got a copy/paste to just allow all the official cosmetics to my dedi server? I don't wanna have to get the cosmetic number from all of them on the wiki page lol. There's like 100 official ones, now.

CosmeticWhitelistOverride="url"

used to work , havent tested it in ages
if that dont work just use the actual url which can be found here ,

Im having this issue when i try to join a server it just load then says to "wait and join automatically blah blah". I cant get onto that specific map (Scorched Earth) and the other maps on the cluster have the same mod and i can get on them fine

[distant hearth]

server needs ram an cpu to run, if ure planning to run a server and play the game from that system u will likely have to lower the settings in game a bit when running the server at same time .
it will run 1 small server with a few minor mods upto prob 5 players and the game without to much issues , if u have decent internet,
you will need access to the router to allow port forwarding to let other players join

[balmy gazelle]

Oh hero, hopefully the actual URL works. I tried just "url" before and I don't think it took. Thank you!

[wise kindle]

I think its case sensitive, so I'm told. "URL"

But Ive been wrong before.

[distant hearth]

u might well be right, the only time the ini cares about capital leterrs is if there wrapped in quotes irc

[wise kindle]

Ty it is nice to be right once in a while lol

[distant hearth]

or for server name or passwords lol i think .
i know most the time when i used write them manually it never cared if i did =TRUE, True or true or TRue etc

[distant hearth]

it wud make sense , but its easy to use the official url too so two options for them 🙂

[lapis quest]

Needs -DoCustomCosmeticValidation on parameters also for official list

[wise kindle]

It all sucks cuz the documentation is more like hints and nudges to get you trying things. No real "this is how you do it" for much of anything anymore.

[distant hearth]

ughh really ? when did they add that in ? honestly the whole custom cosmetic things is stupidly complicated for what it is

[lapis quest]

Theres a link showing how to make a custom list

[distant hearth]

nitrado cant use start commands, wonder how there doing it or there server version just dont need it , or they just added it to all lol

[lapis quest]

Our friend owns that Cystal structures premium mod that launched last week, the amount of people going on the mod discord asking for help with custom cosmetics is unreal

[distant hearth]

im really not suprised, i actually dont fully understand an did spend a lil time trying to get it lol

[lapis quest]

All i know is that you need to use the commandline thing and the url on gui

Have 0 clue on how to make a custom list

ffs just updated my test servers , took an hour (internet on a go slow) then they drop a update, i shud know better

Hi

[distant hearth]

make sure server is up to date ,
when fully booted last line shud be ,
server has completed startup and is advertising to join
Try a differnt port (make sure its forwarded),
also on windows machines we have to make sure the .exe is forwarded through firewall or it wont download mods(unsure about linux/ proton)
As a last resort , set it as an island server make sure its booting an joinable, add 1 mod to it, test , if all good , then change it to clubark

[vocal minnow]

I have literally done all of those. As I said, I have every other map in the cluster working. Just not Club Ark.

[distant hearth]

apologies, i dint read in your post what you had tried sry

[vocal minnow]

The server never starts listening on the port like the others do, so it is like it loads all of the data and then just deadlocks and freezes.

[hollow smelt]

yo

can someone help me
in steam, i keep trying to add a server(inx server) but it says that it cant find a server with the ip address i put in.

[distant hearth]

does it if u load it as an island server? i mean i dunno how much help can be if you tried everyting tbh, just unsure what everything is

[hollow smelt]

its probably steams mistake im js checking cause i js wanna play the inx server lol

[distant hearth]

search the server name on battle metrics website, try joining from the ip with game port, if that dont work, try from the ip with query port

[hollow smelt]

omg tysm

i think it worked

[distant hearth]

depending on the gameport number, some ase join through that, some use query port, i cant rem what the crossover number is

[hollow smelt]

yea i dunno the query port thing is what fixed it for me

perfect, thank you

first one just got done, second one is now d/l , just gonna have try till get it i guess

[jaunty vortex]

yeah, just a pain

the whole point of a server manager is to avoid resorting to the command line 😄

i run mine updates from batch files ,
start "" "D:\SteamCMD\steamcmd.exe" +force_install_dir "D:\Arkserver1" +login anonymous +app_update 2430930 validate +quit

you use a manager iirc? maybe its a being a pain ? but like i say earlier it was giving me trouble

yea both are now done, im in uk so might be on differnt d/l servers to you

3rd is d/l now fine , just to see if it wasnt a fluke

[jaunty vortex]

Oh I'm resorting to using command line myself

[distant hearth]

must be some sort steam server thing i think

[jaunty vortex]

I think so

[distant hearth]

i was about to post here earlier, then 3rd time lucky it just worked, lol so prob cross fingers seems haha

must been a small update, mine norm take way longer, but it is off peak time here so prob i might be getting 12 mb d/l

[dreamy aurora]

Does anyone else have the issue where on the map "The Center," there’s always an overspawn of tames at the blue obelisk? I’m experiencing the same problem at the green obelisk with Kairukus. After about 40 minutes of running "The Center," the ping skyrockets to over 400. When I perform a wild dino wipe, the ping drops back down to 70-80.

Has anyone else encountered similar issues on "The Center," or does anyone know a solution to fix this?

[wise kindle]

What mods are you running?

I havent seen an overspawn at the obs.

The caves yes definately, but not the obelisks.

[dreamy aurora]

my comm mod
W Shop UI
ASA Api Utils

qol+
Dino+

[wise kindle]

comm mod?

[dreamy aurora]

community mod
The strange thing is that everything goes back to normal once I perform a wild dino kill. But I can't keep doing a wild dino kill every 40 minutes. That's why I'm currently looking for a solution to figure out what's causing this and how to fix it.

[wise kindle]

ah ok

What specifically is overspawning?

[dreamy aurora]

blue obi brontos and green obi Kairuku

[wise kindle]

Like 100s or like 20?

The other thing question is; does this happen without mods installed?

brontos not much more karkiku over 200 at the water

[dreamy aurora]

yes with mod with no mods and only center

[wise kindle]

Thats a weird one. I cant say Ive seen that. Had around 4 center maps running previously with 35 mods and no issues there.

I don't understand it myself, because everything works perfectly fine on the other maps. It's only on "The Center" where I have the issue of the ping continuously rising. If I don't perform a wild dino kill, it eventually goes up to 600 or even higher. I just don't know why this is happening.

Thanks for the help anyway, I’ll have to keep testing and looking into it.

[wise kindle]

Check the cave spawns, they are trouble. You might have something weird going on there.

[olive talon]

Automated Wipes mod helped immensely with the cave overspawns tbh

[dire sierra]

does anyone have any recommendations for server managers? google and youtube arent very helpful, the ones i found were 8 months old

[pulsar spire]

is the latest server version already available on steam?

[celest halo]

it was on steam before they even made the patch notes post

[agile stone]

Haruhost is what we use, the dev is pretty on point, it works well, we use it for both ASA, ASE, Palworld and a few other things. He's got a free tier and a paid premium tier and it's easy to use. 🙂

[dire sierra]

Thank you, ill check it out

[agile stone]

No problem 🙂

[mystic ember]

What is code to give another player tek engrams unoffical ASA...? I have tried 4 codes nothing worked 😦

[agile stone]

if you pull up showmyadminmanager in console you should be able to find it

[mystic ember]

Yup I'm doing that and putting in player ID and still don't work. I must be doing something wrong idk

[agile stone]

hmmm.

It's very early or late depending on your point of view but, have you tried the giveengrams command?

Actually no, it's probably GiveTekEngramsTo

I think that first one gives them all engrams in general don't wanna use that

Might be easier to just run em through the boss fight that they need the engrams for instead tho, but then again, if you're granting them engrams, they either did it and got their character wiped, or you're helping a friend catch up.

[hybrid creek]

Thank you, I install the server via steamcmd and it opens successfully, but I cannot see the server in the game.

I would be happy if you help me.

[distant hearth]

once you have the server software installed, use a simple batch file to start it , heres an example,
Start ArkAscendedServer.exe TheIsland_WP?SessionName="my server name" -port=7778 -winlivemaxplayers=10
run that from the same location as the .exe, change the session name to what you want .
forward port 7778 udp through windows firewall incoming and you router/ anything else between you an the internet , any aniti virus crap u might use and then the server shud be joinable .
if the server is running correctly you will see this line in the server console window,
server has completed startup and is advertising to join

[vapid lark]

What is the correct server map name for aberration? I have tried aberration_p and aberration_wp?

[olive talon]

Aberration_WP

[vapid lark]

This is what my ark.properties look like. When i try to connect to the server get an error message saying "invalid authentication token", and the server name is "ShooterEntry" instead of aberrtation, how do i fix this issue? steam_updates=true
server_map=Aberration_WP
epic_only=false
low_memory_mode=false
crossplay=true
use_vivox=false
use_battleye=true
steam_beta=

[distant hearth]

depends if its for ase or asa , see here, https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Dedicated_server_setup#RAM

ase will use _P , asa will use _WP

[vapid lark]

ooh, thanks

[olive talon]

Ah, for ASE, yeah sorry

[vapid lark]

Erhmm, now the server is not appearing on the serverlist anymore after changing it to _P. I get this as the only error in the console, could that have anything to do with it? 12/7 5:17:17 PM [System] Server is starting.
12/7 5:17:18 PM [Info] [S_API FAIL] SteamAPI_Init() failed; SteamAPI_IsSteamRunning() failed.

12/7 5:17:22 PM [Info] WARNING: setlocale('en_US.UTF-8') failed, using locale: 'C'. International characters may not work.

[distant hearth]

how did you download the server files? looks to me like u did through steam with the dedicated server tool and its looking for a valid steam account , just a guess

[vapid lark]

nvm, it appears to work now. Thanks

[cinder valley]

hey guys i set up an ase single server modded running and all everything is fine the mods are running well the things i put are running well except one thing the "game.ini" file i put the multipliers i want there and the imprint and all that stuff but when i boot up the server it doesnt work none of it works. (update: when i checked that file after i started up the server everything in it got deleted???)

[celest halo]

This makes it sound like the server was running when you made the edits to the file. (update: when i checked that file after i started up the server everything in it got deleted???)

[autumn light]

Can i play with my friends while i play on steam and they play on the xbox game pass pc version?

[olive talon]

If you're setting up a server, it must be for Ascended to be crossplay with those platforms.

[pulsar spire]

Hey guys, can ayone shed some light on what is going on when trying to update my server (I only play with some friends, so I'm not an expert or anything regarding server hosting/managing).
Whenever I try to update to the newest version (I'm using haruhost as server manager) I get this message
Error! App '2430930' state is 0x6 after update job.
Thanks in advance!!

[grim sinew]

i had to delete the appmanifest_2430930.acf file and restart the update

[pulsar spire]

thank you 😄

[arctic radish]

another thank you.

[autumn light]

how can i turn crossplay on on my stemcmd server?

[bleak ivy]

crossplay is on by default in ASA dedicated servers.

[viscid shell]

hey,
kinda a general question first,

I and 3 other friends want to play ark Survival Evolved together on a dedicated server, I only own the the game on Epic games and my friends all own it on Steam.
Is it possible for me, or one of my friends to host the server on my/their own pc and play on it simultaneously?

If so what are system requirements for relatively smooth gameplay on the client and server side?

thanks in advance

[bleak ivy]

yes, steam/epic is crossplay (without mods) there are settings that need to be enabled to have ASE steam/epic servers be crossplay.

it is possible, the server will only really use memory (RAM) and CPU.
no idea on CPU (I have no idea how to compare them lol) but if you have 32GB you can do it. wouldn't recommend on 16gb.

[viscid shell]

aight, thanks for the quick response, will fiddle around with it tomorrow

[edgy pasture]

I was having this issue too on my Center map that only resolved with dino wipe. I noticed a weird spawn issue with penguins near green ob, so ive limited those, and just in case it was core isolation issue ive removed all of those settings. it seems fine since

[edgy pasture]

I use ASAManager

[dire sierra]

Thanks, have you got a safe link of where to download it from?

[grim sinew]

i use and love asa dedicated manager (if you google that it will have a link to their website) they are very active on development and patching. the community in the discord is very good with troubleshooting most issues as well

[icy kettle]

I have my servers setup as PVE but bed respawn timers are still on. How do I remove respawn timers?

[dreamy aurora]

okay what exactly did you set how much reduced and so maybe you can send me that by chance

[true estuary]

Anyone know if the Fear Ascended stuff has been added to the dlc yet? Like if I remove it from my servers will all of my players lose their stuff?

Same question for Summer Bash.

[olive talon]

Yes, both events are safe to remove.

[true estuary]

Thank you.

[viscid shell]

ive set up a server for ark SE on my pc following NeddyTheNoodle's guide
the server is online,
-i can find it in the server browser on the epic games version,
-crossplay is on in the server config
-ports 27015 and 7777 are forwarded using udp/tcp protocols
-no mods/ plugins
the problem:
if i then click on "join" it starts loading and displays: "joining server [server name]" in the middle of the screen, unfortunately it takes a while and then a popup appears saying:
"Joining failed, Connection Timeout"

What is the problem here?
is it the fact Im using epic games?
or is the tutorial outdated?
(already asked the question in #bobs-with-probs but i thought it would fit here better, sorry if its considered spam, ill delete the one in the other channel)

[wise kindle]

You dont have any mods do you? (I have to ask)

[viscid shell]

no

[wise kindle]

Some of the selfhost gurus will be along to help - Im useless as I have to use Nitrado lol.

[arctic sage]

7778 think is also needed, especially if you search this discord for "udp port"

[viscid shell]

forwarded those too, resterted the server and game, still doesnt work

[frigid vine]

This works only for Aberration 🙂
We figured out there is an issue when you transfer 100 nameless venom from aberration e.g. to the center or the island what ever. It converts to only 1 nameless venom, the others are lost in space

[olive talon]

Works perfectly fine on my cluster 🙂

You have to have the config on each server.

[frigid vine]

Yes, i have the same INI entry for every server.

Sadly is not working for the other maps, only aberration

[olive talon]

It's working on my island, se, and aberration.

[frigid vine]

Can you double check again? So go to aberration cheat gfi PrimalItemConsumable_NamelessVenom 100 1 0 leave it in your inventor, transfer to island, check inventory und try to split all

Maybe one of the last updates breaks this

[olive talon]

Later when I'm able to get on my pc, sure, but it worked fine a few weeks ago, which is the last time we transferred out venom.

[frigid vine]

We tried also via up/download, is not working. It shows visually 100 stack but after split all it does not work

[wise kindle]

I have them stacking at 500 on all 22 of my maps.
That code DEFINITELY works.

Fully transferable.

[olive talon]

Sounds like it might just user error, imo

[frigid vine]

Strange, i checked all Game.ini and there are all the same.

No mods

[wise kindle]

Remove the code. Start. Stop. Replace the code.

That’s about all you can do. Its a pre release game so its very inconsistent.

[frigid vine]

I can try this, yes. But first i will remove the whitespace in all of our ConfigOverride Entries between MaxItemQuantity=100, bIgnoreMultiplier=true
I cant imagine this will fix it, because the other stacks working fine except nameless and on aberration it stacks perfectly

[olive talon]

There shouldn't be any spaces in the config.

[frigid vine]

yeah, like i said, works since ASE without issues 🙂 But i will try without whitespace first, maybe its something super weird

[timid sonnet]

has anyone got experience with the dragon kingdom mod?

[frigid vine]

@wise kindle @olive talon sadly both options did not work. Can you send me maybe your Game.ini and GameUserSettings.ini via DM? Of course without password stuff, just wanna double check what happens when i take your settings on a fresh map.

[olive talon]

There aren't specific settings for the config. It is simply the code.

ConfigOverrideItemMaxQuantity=(ItemClassString="PrimalItemConsumable_NamelessVenom_C",Quantity=(MaxItemQuantity=100,bIgnoreMultiplier=true))

Just that and it works fine.

[frigid vine]

Okay weird. Can't do more than what i test it 🙂 I guess then the last update brokes something

[wise kindle]

I still cant alter my exceptional kibble recipe on my maps. Can alter all other recipes. Even used beacon to do it, so Im chalking it up to early release issues.

[feral marsh]

Not sure someone could assist me, but figured I don't have anywhere else to ask at this point.

My network crashed (assuming it was a network crash) 2 nights ago. Kicked my players off, and no one has been able to log in since.

I run my servers on a dedicated PC. There are 13 maps (all the normal ones, plus Caballus). Since the crash/kick, all of my servers are showing as not responding in steam, but my server manager shows them as working and running appropriately.

I have:

Checked the ports; they are good and forwarded
IP is the same
Computer has been restarted
The app has been updated
Gateway has been restarted through their app
The modem has been unplugged/plugged back in.
Tried restoring map to a backup before the problem started.
Each map has been shut down and restarted.

I'm genuinely at a loss at this point.

[frigid vine]

Tried now also with new installation of a asa-server, map the center (ofc new savegame too), i leave the configs default except the Game.ini entry with the ConfigOverride Entry. Does also not work.
I tried also via cheat my self a full stack (100) and i got 100 in single

So in this case i guess its also broken for you guys if you dont use a mod after the last update 🙂

When i change the map to Aberration_WP, without changing anything, it directly works.

[crystal mango]

Yo! So I'm going to be running a temporary server on ark survival, but I'm hoping to use the same laptop to run an ascended server (shortly; not both at the same time).

Laptop is an older gaming laptop; Intel i7-4700HQ, 16gb of RAM. Will that be acceptable for an ascended server for two, maybe up to 4 people? RAM is an easy upgrade if necessary.

Felt a little rough on occasion with survival evolved - the single core performance isn't crazy on the laptop. Not sure if it was configuration however. Am hoping that ascended uses cores better?

[humble orbit]

Anyone have the round about cost of a 6 map, 20 slot server for a YEAR?

[olive talon]

Just one server is 250.

[errant fox]

If you are using Nitrado just use the deal right now and order a minecraft (40% off) 20 slot server for a year. Save $100 or so and then just switch the game to Ark Ascended

[barren bobcat]

Dedicated server setup question... Why are players losing characters daily? Everything should be setup right. Things work except players lose character. They are brought to create new screen, but their actual character is in-game still.

I checked logs and there's no works saves happening? Just "Spyglass Server Save"

I'm using windows GSM and running other games with no issues, really confused why this is happening 😅

[slow ginkgo]

this is a common ark problem unfortunately. I've had the issue for a while so yesterday I took a full cluster backup and followed the steps in the first pinned msg on this channel.

so far so good, but my way of dealing with it was doing manual daily server backups, then used Arkon to find player's SteamID and manually reinstated each character when it happened. I was able to reduce player loss by upping server saves to 30 mins and advise players to learn engrams/stay on map for a while after transferring

[native wave]

6x 250....you're better off buying a used server off ebay or renting a barebones server to load whatever you want on it

[barren bobcat]

Seems my server is saving but logs just weren't showing... I increased saves to every 5 minutes. I thought that would help 🤣

[slow ginkgo]

nah i found the opposite. If a transfer occurs at the same time as a server save that can result in corruption. Half of the time the player profile just won't write itself upon spawning into the world

[barren bobcat]

At least saves are in the logs now

[barren bobcat]

Dang okay yeah I saw that on a steam post but was hoping that wasn't the case.

[slow ginkgo]

at 30min saves, taking daily backups, encouraging players not to transfer backwards and forwards like maniacs and having them try to learn an engram after transfer I was down to losing about 1 a week

[barren bobcat]

Yeah Its ridiculous that it even exist though...

at least I finally got this reponse. Been trying for days now to figure out what to do. Actually found those option and put them on, but it deleted all the tribe data. So took it off and rolled server back instead of claiming everyone structures... guess we gotta do that now lol

Thanks!

[harsh dune]

Anyone wanna help me tame Dino’s

[slow ginkgo]

weird, I've got a lot of active players and havent had any reports of this since yesterday

[warm zodiac]

We have been managing a private server cluster for over a year now, it has some mods on it. we currently have an issue where when the game updates there are some instances that the mods will not load with the server when it restarts. This causes everything that applys to the mod to disappear when the server comes back up. Because we can only run server saves for about 2 days there are times where people will not catch that the mod never loaded in time and we will lose all the data relating to that mod not only on the server but in all the backup saves. Is there any way we can set up a server so if it doesnt verify all the mods its supposed to load it wont start?

[supple basalt]

my server keep saying my weight is full but i have nothing in invo or very little stuff in my invo what do i do to fix it

[wise kindle]

Check cosmetics tab.
And dying likes to solve everything.

[supple basalt]

What am I ment to look for in cosmetics

[native zealot]

Empty your inventory and then travel from one bed to another, then invisible costumes will also be left behind from your inventory. These can be caused by a bug where the costumes always duplicate after travelling or logging in. We had that too and this finally helped.

[supple basalt]

Alright thank you I will give it a try

[native zealot]

Hallo,
I have an error regarding the mod storage. Does anyone know what it is?

Playing on PS5, private Nitrado servers, crossplay.

I uninstalled the game with everything and reinstalled it after it kept telling me that I had installed too many mods, but only 12GB were installed (including maps).

After reinstalling the game, I was told that I didn't have 20GB free only aroumd 16GB. What kind of error is it that I can't even use the 20 GB? This is particularly annoying with so many premium maps.
And on the Playstation we currently only have 20 GB.

[worldly bluff]

Hi. I need help with my ASA dedictated server setup. If I remove the serverIP from my start up command then I can not find my server on the list. And i have to put in the internal IP for a value. I can join locally but if someone tries and connect from out side they get a connection failed error.

[wise kindle]

This is a PS limit that hasnt been dealt with yet. They are supposed to raise this to 50 when they get their ducks in a row.
Xbox has been increased to 50 gigs, PC is unlimited.
PS has not caught up yet.
As to why its 16 gigs and not 20, this is a limit with the console.

[eternal lake]

Could use a little help if you have done this or know that it can be done.

Scenario: Multiple maps on separate hardware, cluster data is synchronized using syncthing. One map/server is collocated in another state and can't be accessed currently. Player last logged off on that server.
Is there a way for this player to continue on other cluster maps without having to upload from the last server they logged off on?

[celest halo]

Not really, there current player data is on the server they last logged off of

[eternal lake]

So it only gets shared across the clustered maps when they initiate a transfer from within game?

[celest halo]

yup, on transfer the current servers puts players data into the cluster folder, then the server they joined takes there data out of the cluster folder

[dusty jay]

If i change the clusterID on my server config and point the data at a different folder will this effect any saves or anything on my maps? I'm trying to slow down this characters being lost thing but it seems to have gotten worse since the last patch

[last snow]

Does anyone happen to know how one might be able to remove the shovel and treasures from bob's tale. the drops don't seem to work in relation to the ini setting multiplier.

[worldly bluff]

anyhelp ?

[dusk oyster]

ive been looking at the server config wiki cause im wanting to make it so that all supply drops in general have more items in them so i can give myself mor eoptions ot pick from in a sense so after thinking i did it all correctly i put this into my game.ini file

ConfigOverrideSupplyCrateItems=(SupplyCrateClassString="SupplyCrate",MinItemSets=2,MaxItemSets=4,NumItemSetsPower=1,bSetsRandomWithoutReplacement=False,EntryWeight=1,ChanceToBeBlueprintOverride=0.0)))

loaded into the island real quick to see if it worked, and what i saw was supply drops spawning in the sky for like a milisecond, then they completely vanish out of existence, so apparently i went very wrong somewhere but dont know where or how to actually get the outcome im wanting.

[distant hearth]

well u never actally added anything for the drop to choose from , drop coding is quite a pain , luckily beacon omni app makes it alot easier, the free version will do drop coding.
just got learn how 🙂

[distant hearth]

asa uses only the one udp port for connecting set with -port=xxxx on start commandline, xxxx is the port number u wish to set, try 7778 , make sure that port is forwarded through firewall inbound, any antivirus u might use and in the router/anything else between u an internet

[worldly bluff]

I do have my ports forwarded. my command line "Commandline: "C:\Ark Servers\Servers\TheIsland\ShooterGame\Binaries\Win64\ArkAscendedServer.exe" TheIsland_WP?listen?Port=7777 -ServerPlatform=ALL -WinLiveMaxPlayers=10 -clusterid=Broken -ClusterDirOverride="C:\Ark Servers\Cluster" -ServerIP=192.168.0.100"

if i remove the serverip part then does not show up

[distant hearth]

ive never added a server ip to my commands it worked without , you dont have a session name set ? doing that in ini ? might be worth try in command line
?listen isnt used or needed
-serverplatform=all isnt needed they default to that
?port=7777 shud be -port=7777

not that it matters in your case as they default to 7777
some people have issues with that port so try 7778
i.e
start C:\Ark Servers\Servers\TheIsland\ShooterGame\Binaries\Win64\ArkAscendedServer.exe TheIsland_WP?SessionName="sirdiealot" -Port=7778 -WinLiveMaxPlayers=10 -clusterid=Broken -ClusterDirOverride="C:\Ark Servers\Cluster"
hope that makes sense

[cold brook]

Hiya, for some reason my scorched earth server is running with a longer day/night cycle. There's nothing in the configs that I can see related to this. Any idea why this might be happening?

[worldly bluff]

i am using ASA dedicated Manager to host

[bleak ivy]

ASA maps each have different cycles

[worldly bluff]

Commandline: "C:\Ark Servers\Servers\TheIsland\ShooterGame\Binaries\Win64\ArkAscendedServer.exe" TheIsland_WP?listen?Port=7778?SessionName=BrokenZA -ServerPlatform=ALL -WinLiveMaxPlayers=10 -clusterid=Broken -ClusterDirOverride="C:\Ark Servers\Cluster"

then i can not find my server

[celest halo]

?Port= is wrong for ASA that was a ASE setting, ASA uses -Port=

[worldly bluff]

Commandline: "C:\Ark Servers\Servers\TheIsland\ShooterGame\Binaries\Win64\ArkAscendedServer.exe" TheIsland_WP?listen?Port=7778?SessionName=BrokenZA -Port=7778 -ServerPlatform=ALL -WinLiveMaxPlayers=10 -clusterid=Broken -ClusterDirOverride="C:\Ark Servers\Cluster"

[feral marsh]

Trying to log into one of my servers and it says: App ID specified by server is invalid.

Any thoughts?

[cold brook]

So is like a 2 hour day cycle what you'd expect for SE?

[distant hearth]

sry i dont know i dont use managers , as you can see, they do weird shit thats not right, despite this it shud work if the port is forwarded.. atleast id expect it too.
next step wud be look up the server on battlemetrics website an see what actual ip an port its running on if its joinable from in game command
open <ipadress>:<port>

some routers dont allow you to forward , some give nat loopback issues , im shit at networking so cant really offer much more sry

[worldly bluff]

so i can connect to it with open my public ip and the port 7778

i did host just after the game came out and then stop playing. now i am trying to get back in and I am strugling

[distant hearth]

when searching in game make sure your filters are correct , theres so many is easy to get it wrong

[worldly bluff]

I am under unofficial and have show player servers checked

[distant hearth]

at the top, map set to all, pvp/pve set to all ,
password on and off(try both) , search name an hit enter

make sure not looking for pc only etc

[elder heron]

Hi. I have a question. I know how i can set up the ingame tribelog to a discord channel. But, how do i do that as a community server admin for all members? Is it possible to have like that for all of the tribes? So they all see their own ingame tribe log?

[bleak ivy]

scorched is 3 hour, 32m cycle.

2h 53m day, 39m night.

[worldly bluff]

tried all of them it is still not showing up

[distant hearth]

hmm , you using a server version of windows or home version ?

[worldly bluff]

on windows 10 pro

when I add the serverIp and make it the internal Ip of the box then shows and I can connect but friends from out side times out

[distant hearth]

kk tat shud work fine then, honestly no idea , if u can join via command and play the game just have do that i guess .

[distant hearth]

well i dont know much on networking but pressumably becuase ure assigned ur einternal ip lol

[worldly bluff]

ya but does not show for the extenal ip

[distant hearth]

so external still cant join using the command?

[worldly bluff]

let me try that quickly

i can connect like that

can someone try and connect from outside my network? open 102.182.146.165:7778

[distant hearth]

whats the server name? i can try look for it too

[worldly bluff]

BrokenZA

thank you

[distant hearth]

yea can join from ip adress but cant find searching in game

[worldly bluff]

thanks that is the problem

[distant hearth]

spawned in no problem , so it wud seem the ports open no issue, just ark doing ark things

[worldly bluff]

jip

i host the old for long time

i changed to "Commandline: "C:\Ark Servers\Servers\TheIsland\ShooterGame\Binaries\Win64\ArkAscendedServer.exe" TheIsland_WP?listen?Port=7778?SessionName=BrokenZA -Port=7778 -ServerPlatform=PC -WinLiveMaxPlayers=10 -clusterid=Broken -ClusterDirOverride="C:\Ark Servers\Cluster" -ServerIP=192.168.0.100
"

now will show

[distant hearth]

my only suggestion wud be try opening the server from a batch file rather than the server manager, its a shot in the dark tbh

i dont use a server manager and dont have issues ...

[worldly bluff]

ok will try that

do just take the command line and in a bat file?

[distant hearth]

yep , copy this into a txt file ,i just use notepad, then make it a .bat file, u might need to enable file extensions

start C:\Ark Servers\Servers\TheIsland\ShooterGame\Binaries\Win64\ArkAscendedServer.exe TheIsland_WP?SessionName="BrokenZA" -Port=7778 -WinLiveMaxPlayers=10 -clusterid=Broken -ClusterDirOverride="C:\Ark Servers\Cluster"

3-Now we will enable the ability to edit file extensions so we can create the batch files needed for the next steps ,
Open file explorer(the folder viewer) and select view ,then tick the box for filename extensions

incase u dont know how

[worldly bluff]

i have done that

[distant hearth]

you will get a warning when u change it from .txt to .bat just click ok or w.e it is windows complains about

[worldly bluff]

ok i could see the server and join

[distant hearth]

see it in game?

[worldly bluff]

yes but think wrong one was the managers instance

so closed everything now and run the bat file again

ok this seems to work

can you try please

[distant hearth]

ok , i be about for another 15 mins so can test if u want?

yea 1 sec

[distant hearth]

still doesnt show in game,
weirdly i briefly saw the old one with your internal ip adress , that just gave me a connection timeout

At this point its beyond my knowledge, some sort networking issue

[worldly bluff]

thank you for the help 😦 wish i knew how to fix this

[distant hearth]

if u ever do figure it out , tag me, im curious as to what it is too lol

[worldly bluff]

i feel like something change in the game as when came out that first few weeks I did not have any problems

is there someone from wildcard that can help maybe?

[distant hearth]

unlikely they dont really give much support for official let alone us lot ..
i find it odd that setting the server with your internal ip adress makes it show in the ingame browser , yet using ure public one does not ...
they likely related some how , just networking is beyond be

[worldly bluff]

jip it a very weird issue

only other option i can think of buying vpn seeing if that helps

maybe my isp doing something weird

but I got fixed ip today so was hoping that will resolve the issue

[distant hearth]

possibly, theres prob free vpns u cud use as a test ...

Ive still not figured out how the server actually tells epic online services that its awake an joinable , as it will do that even with out the game port forwarded inbound ,

maybe try forward 7777 and 7778 outbound too

[worldly bluff]

i am forwarding range from 7777 to 7800

[distant hearth]

in the windows firewall i mean , when i set up mine , i just do inbound , but i dont have ure issue, was just curious if that was a difernce

[worldly bluff]

let me check I think the first time it starts it adds them

[distant hearth]

however my .exe sets up its own firewall permissions on install, i assume thats how it contacts eos

[worldly bluff]

i ahve bitdfender firewall

[distant hearth]

thats also worth a check , wudnt trust a server manager to do it properly lol

[worldly bluff]

switch it off also no diffrence

[distant hearth]

hmm prob not that then , just kinda digging deep haha

[worldly bluff]

i can see the arkascendedserver exe in the firewall list

[stable scarab]

Hey! Which setting do I need to add to which file to increase the amount of imprint % per cuddle?

Thank you in advance! =D

[native wave]

BabyImprintAmountMultiplier in Game.ini

[stable scarab]

Thank you! =D

[native wave]

BabyImprintAmountMultiplier Default value: 1.0
Value type: float
Scales the percentage each imprint provides. A higher value, will rise the amount of imprinting % at each baby care/cuddle, a lower value will decrease it. This multiplier is global, meaning it will affect the imprinting progression of every species. See also The Imprinting formula how it affects the imprinting amount at each baby care/cuddle.

Hrello 🙂 Anybody knowns is it possible to prevent transfering a custom item?
I want to enable the train, tracks etc. only for scorched earth. I already disabled the engrams for it, for the other maps. This works. The Problem is players able to transfer those items between the maps and if they have learned the engram on SE (where its allowed) then can also built and use it on other maps.

My idea was to prevent transfering those items to other maps except SE. Is that possible without a mod? Maybe with a plugin?

[drifting dawn]

Hello. Does anybody know if setting up a dynamic config for an unofficial server makes the dynamicconfig.ini override gus.ini/game.ini completely? If so, does dynamic config process all available options from these settings, like stacks changes or mods settings when they are directly written in the dynamicconfig.ini?

[distant hearth]

obly certain configs can be done dynamically, see here for more info ,
https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Server_configuration#DynamicConfig

[drifting dawn]

Yeah. I know that. What i'm wondering is: If there are some configs i don't apply in the dynamic config but I do apply it on the game.ini, do these configs still apply on the server?

[distant hearth]

dynamic config will only effect what it can change

[drifting dawn]

okay, so it doesn't override game.ini overall, just on the lines it can change. Thank you, that's the answer I was looking for

[night ermine]

for some reason my lost island just wont load at all, when i click any lost island server it starts putting me in then just completly freezes on the load in screen, if anyone knows how to help me out it would be much appreciated

[molten thicket]

Hey, just wondering where I would look for assistance in setting up an ASE server with my oracle VM?

[eternal lake]

Question about usestore:

I implemented usestore after a number of xbox players were loosing association with their tribes across the cluster.

A few players had last logged off on a server that isn't currently up (SE, remote).

I'm wondering if there's a way to utilize what usestore backs-up in order to get their players moved. Assuming this might have to go the route of standing up an extra server on the cluster temporarily so they can transfer off, but am unsure. If anyone has experience with this, I'd appreciate any insights.

[slate bridge]

Ive got an odd one. Everytime a player transfers from one map to another, they timeout. they have to reload into the map they transfer to and then its ok. the server doesnt go down or anything they just always have that issue. in fact we always do. Ive done some testing, its not the mods, no the plugins, ive made a new admin character and i can transfer fine but my own character cannot without timing out.

Have you come across this issue ? Could it be a character issue or tribe issue ? its been happening for a couple of months now.

[celest halo]

check cosmetics tab, if you have a bunch of cosmetics or chibis it can do that

[frigid valley]

How can I increase wild Dino level?

Currently at 150

[slow ginkgo]

I'm curious about this as well. I've been using -usestore for about a week without issue at this point. Before using -usestore i was manually reinstating players from the save folder of each map and copying the .arkprofile to the saved folder of the new map. In this scenario that's what I would probably try. I'd set up another map, launch it once added to cluster to generate save folder, close it and then I'd copy every .arkprofile from SE save folder to the map save folder that you choose to test with. This should only bring characters and no tribe data. I haven't tested this but this is what I'd try, hope that helps

[eternal lake]

Thanks, I'll give it a shot.

[broken plank]

Hello all, question about DynamicConfig. I have an unofficial cluster trying to mimic rates of officials. So everything is 1x and I've set DynamicConfig to URL cdn2-arkdedicated-com/asa/dynamicconfig.ini, so whenever officials got any rate boost, my cluster gets refreshed and stay boosted until officials turn boost off. So far so good. The thing is, players are asking to move to a Small tribes official rate. So I should increase rates to 2.5x, maturation/hatching to 2x, etc. But will the weekend boost events bring my cluster to 4.5x rates as they happen on official small tribes? Because on the URL cdn2-arkdedicated-com/asa/dynamicconfig.ini there is no mention of smalltribes rates or even arkpocalypse rates.. Only old school official rates (1x)

[celest halo]

[drifting dawn]

Hello, does anyone know how long it takes for the dynamicconfig update command to work? I edited the file with new colors but dinos are still spawning in the old colors (which are no longer in the file)

[slow ginkgo]

awesome, can you pls let me know how you go, curious if this is the right approach myself

[fleet olive]

Hello, running a cluster of servers and am having issues getting bees to spawn on aberration. Anyone else have this issue?

[celest halo]

It should be reading the dynamic config and updating settings when server does its auto save

There is a command you can use to force it to reload the dynamic config, don’t remember what it is but it’s on the wiki

[drifting dawn]

Yeah, its ForceUpdateDynamicConfig, but what happened was: I wanted to have all dinos in ActualBlack, I put it in the file, typed the command and it started working instantly. After a day, i wanted to change it to Dino Albino, I changed it in the file and did the command, I started having dinos with both colors. The only way ActualBlack dinos stopped spawning was with a server restart. Auto save didnt do it, manual save didnt do it and the command didnt do it. 😮‍💨

[celest halo]

Lol sounds like WC don't clear custom colors once they removed from the dynamic config

[drifting dawn]

Yeah… including new colors is great and easy, but removing them…
I’ve also noticed if you type an invalid string in the color name, dinos will spawn in their native colors but tek binoculars wont show the color info

Kinda wanted to have dinos spawning in idk, 211 or 212 but i dont know these colors names, the name given in the wiki table doesnt work for them

[lean bluff]

Is it okay to remove fear ascended now? Has everything been added to the base game?

[humble thicket]

hey I'm new could anyone help me how do you make Dino's gain more stats per level

[limpid briar]

New server in desperate need of a coder anyone out there that can help ASE

[olive talon]

Yes and yes

[haughty ether]

The Nitrado webpage has all the info you need for changing stats.
I can’t post a link or photo here…but you should find it if you google

(Go take a look at that first as it’s a lot to explain.)
If you have a pc/laptop I highly recommend looking up Beacon omni too- it will make your life so much easier.

ASM is crashing every time i try to start the server

error reads "LowLevelFatalError [File:F:\build\LostIsland\Engine\Source\Runtime\Core\Private\HAL\FileManagerGeneric.cpp] [Line: 649]

tried rollback, the last one gives the error "unable to load object headers from world save file"

when looking at the rollbacks, ive also noticed that even though the game is supposed to be autosaving every 15 minutes, there are only 3 total saves (including the most current) for roughly 4 hours of uptime

[brisk holly]

can I host a non dedicated server on ARK on steam for my friend on ps5?

[olive talon]

No, nondedicated is not crossplay.

[vivid zealot]

If you can’t host yourself, best option is to rent a 3rd party server. They usually go for $5-$10/mo, not too bad

[vivid compass]

Guys anyone knows how to solve the problem I m playing the game by family share it's showing ( share accounts cannot play on this server) need to join my friend non dedicated server @here

[jaunty vortex]

It means it’s writing to your save file every 15 minutes. It doesn’t generate a new save file every time.

There’s a powershell script I put together that is pinned in this channel that will archive your save files. You can call it from Windows Task Scheduler to do this every 15 minutes.

[dreamy aurora]

Hey, I have a question. I currently have -usestore -BackupTransferPlayerDatas in the startup command lines, but I’d like to remove them since I don’t need them anymore. However, when I tried to remove them, all players got kicked out of their tribes. Is there a way to remove these options without everyone losing their tribe affiliations?

[eager patrol]

We have an issue where our server seems to be trash dumping tribes or the tribes arent shutting down correctly, as one of our mods keeps getting kicked from their tribe
anybody know whats up? or how to fix
or do i need to nuke/reset the server

[sharp siren]

if you are using the store format and stop using it, you are no longer using it, therefor you cant use it? you would need to manually convert the data somehow. why do you want to stop using it, to begin with?

a mod could theoretically repair the tribe membership for each player, but it would need to be custom made

[distant hearth]

there isnt an exact science, it will depend how many people play on the maps, how many mods you use, how built up the map is etc . As a general rule of thumb allow upto 16gb per map for 20 slot servers an you shudnt have any issues

ab is using 10.4GB on mine, but i do have a like 4 mods one of which is shiny dino so that will prob use a tiny bit more than a bare server

pretty much yea

yea wudnt expect it to suddenly use alot more , but who knows till its out lol wc do strange things sometimes

[jaunty vortex]

I don’t think you can suddenly stop using that. The world save is a different format and holds all the player data in it. If you stop using -usestore it will expect player data to be in separate files and it won’t be able to find them.

[dreamy aurora]

Because of this, I experience extreme lags due to these two things. I tested removing them on my test server yesterday, and the servers ran much better. The -usestore -BackupTransferPlayerDatas causes extreme lag every time someone joins the server.

[dreamy aurora]

Yeah, I noticed that too. I tried to remove it, but everyone ended up outside the tribe. However, ever since I added it, the servers have been lagging a lot. Every time someone joins, there's always a 10-second lag. When I remove it, everything works fine, and the server doesn't lag as much anymore.

[jaunty vortex]

it shouldn't cause lag. I have it on my servers and have never experienced that happen

it's also on the official servers I believe

[flint oasis]

What is your fortitude? I know it sounds dumb but I have always gotten extreme heat and cold damage in Ark from ASE through ASA 🙂

[autumn light]

i have 24 fortidue

[flint oasis]

I usually go 80+ 😛 otherwise you need to have an otter on your shoulder, cold weather gear, ride a bear, and hold a torch (which now you can put on your belt). the melee I believe is what you want to level up in Otters for this to help keep you warm. The cold and hot aspects of ark are all part of the whole Ark experience 🙂 Once you're hot water will go down quicker and you will have trouble keeping water in your canteen and when cold food goes down quicker. Put your canteen in the fridge to ice it to cool you down in Scorched when its a "heatwave" 😄

[flint oasis]

Remember berries can also help you with water and on scorched they have cactus sap 🙂 It isn't like drinking water but at least you won't die right? 😄

[obtuse falcon]

Get an otter and level it in melee or a pyromane

[wise kindle]

Sounds like its perfect but no one can see it to tell 🤷🏻‍♀️
Also ppl will ask for port information. Best to re ask your question with all this info included, otherwise this will get buried.

[wise kindle]

Not much you can do there since its Microsoft and WC filters fighting with each other. Its been an issue since ASA released.

[hazy shuttle]

okay so iv got port 27015 and 7777 7778 all open with rcon on 27015 i can start the server up get it running and it boots ingame when joinning it says connection failed timed out in console iv noticed cli: auth: rcon: dial tcp 127.0.0.1:25001: connect: connection refused wondered if anyone knew what its caused by and why its being like this?

[bleak ivy]

what did you put as the map in the bat file

[hazy shuttle]

TheIsland_WP

[sharp siren]

that seems odd. how big are the files and what type of drive are they on?

[dreamy aurora]

2x 1024 GB Enterprise NVME 1 mio. IOPS
file sizes are different, I can't really say, it always depends on the map

[jaunty vortex]

You only need 7777 (UDP) and 27015 (TCP). Make sure they are forwarded on your router to the PC hosting the map.

If you’re running the server on the same PC you play from, use a different port to 7777 as game and server will clash.

Hey guys! I have my own nitrado asa server and trying to figure out how i can disable certain dinos from mods or how i can for example change the weight from the oasisaur to be extremely high and make em spawn on high baselevels instead of just level 1 and lower down the weight of certain other dinos

Can someone help me with this? Pleeaase

[low dew]

google will have guides

@tidal bloom

[tidal bloom]

ye i didnt find a guide for this problem tbh, because its just my first server

[olive talon]

Posting in this channel is what it's for, you can ignore that.
Oasisaur doesn't seem to have any configs, currently.

As to disabling dinos, NPCReplacements works the same for modded creatures. For example, if you're wanting to remove dodos-
NPCReplacements=(FromClassName="Dodo_Character_BP_C",ToClassName="")
Just add the dino class name where "Dodo_Character_BP_C" is.

[silver thistle]

if u have beacon you can do all this accept the weight on oasisaur

[last magnet]

not the inventory weight, weight is also used to mean how high a chance it has to spawn

I have pyros as a rare spawn in Redwoods on the Island for example, and higher chance at the Volcano & carno island

[olive talon]

You're unable to make any config changes to the oasisaur unless it's a default that applies to all creatures. They haven't released any configs for BTT or FT dlcs

[frank sierra]

turns out its not a problem with the code its my entire config folder resetting every time i start a world

i tried putting stuff in engine.ini and messing with mod configs in gameusersettings.ini and both get deleted the second my world loads

[weary tulip]

Can one add Pyromanes to the redwoods on Island map by editing the Game.INI?

[olive talon]

Yes

[olive talon]

Weight would likely need to be edited to your liking, but this adds them as a rarer spawn

ConfigAddNPCSpawnEntriesContainer=(NPCSpawnEntriesContainerClassString="DinoSpawnEntriesRedwoods_C",NPCSpawnEntries=((AnEntryName="Pyromane",EntryWeight=0.003422368,NPCsToSpawn=("/Game/ASA/Dinos/FireLion/FireLion_Character_BP.FireLion_Character_BP_C"),ManualSpawnPointSpreadRadius=4688)),NPCSpawnLimits=((NPCClass="/Game/ASA/Dinos/FireLion/FireLion_Character_BP.FireLion_Character_BP_C",MaxPercentageOfDesiredNumToAllow=0.05)))

[tidal bloom]

Thank you so much for your anwers! Unfortunate...i feel like the oasisaur is a bit useless without an option to add level and weight....

[olive talon]

Honestly, it kinda of is, other than reviving, and even then I ended up using a mod for that

If there is someone that could literally make a mod to fix the oasisaur it would be sooo awesome

[thick acorn]

okay i will try that as well!

thank you!

[silver thistle]

well it tried to post link but nope and cant do screen shot either - but basically just type beacon ark .. in google will be first link

[gray goblet]

wondering if anyone could help? the Any color sets mod doesn't include the Deinonychus, Pyromane, Graptor ect, how could I do this in Nitrado settings so that these also get the random colours?

[silver thistle]

if u put it on the custom configs it should work on all dinos [AnyColourSets]
UseCustomGlobalSets=True
CustomGlobalColourSetChance=100
GlobalColourSets=DinoColorSet_AllColours_ACS_C,DinoColorSet_Neon_ACS_C

---

my pyromanes walking around are all deffo colours greens reds pinks blues etc

i have a bright pink gigantorapter as well

[AnyColourSets]
UseCustomGlobalSets=True
CustomGlobalColourSetChance=100
GlobalColourSets=DinoColorSet_AllColours_ACS_C,DinoColorSet_Neon_ACS_C

i have the link for all the colour sets u need it i only use 2 of them but theres more options

ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Mod:Any_Colour_Sets/Mod_Coloursets

[gray goblet]

sweet thanks, shall have a look 😄

[silver thistle]

u will need to dino wipe once u have done it but a fyi even tho its set to 100% it does not mean all wild dinos will have colours annoyingly but its more like an increased event colours. the mod in perticuler is not really whats its cracked up to be but it does make a difference

[gray goblet]

np thats okay, just nice seeing colourful dinos about than the usual bland 😄

[silver thistle]

in deed lol

[gray goblet]

so whichever colours I want just seperate with , ?

[silver thistle]

yeah see how mine between all colours and then neion colours

GlobalColourSets=DinoColorSet_AllColours_ACS_C,DinoColorSet_Neon_ACS_C

[gray goblet]

which file does it go in sorry? game.ini or gameusersettings?

[silver thistle]

r u using nitrado site?

so yes ur is gameuser settings

[gray goblet]

Awesome thanks for your help

[frigid valley]

yo

how do i disable/hide an engram on my server?

[gray goblet]

still doesn't seem to work on the newer dinos..

nvm it works

[silver thistle]

Yeah u may just need to give it time to sort it self out with spawns 🙂

[olive talon]

Links to major information are posted here, that way you're able to share the post if necessary.

[lilac veldt]

hmm i enabled custom cosmetics via whitelist but now players are seeing "custom cosmetic out of date" errors and cant use any custom cosmetics even though theres been no updates to the cosmetics... has anyone else had this happen?

[lapis quest]

Some cosmetic mods are broken for a while

IIrc that one with the game of thrones shield styles is one of them

[lilac veldt]

thanks, i was able to get them all showing and seemingly everything besides structures working by redoing the whitelist with nondata only allowed

the structures work fine in SP but trying to "create" them on the server is still no working sadly

[lapis quest]

Im always seeing the red popup on my screen about those daam shields, it's driving me crazy

[thick acorn]

i have another 2 question about this server i own if anyone would help?

1). i am trying to get the levels of the dino’s to be higher, can anyone explain that to me? i did look up the nitrado website but im still confused. i am having issues with gigas spawning like in big numbers and im so confused.

2. what are the best numbers for stats to be increased by. my weight is at 84,000 and its so much i dont know what is going wrong 😦

[hidden prairie]

Can anyone help with me with an issue I’m having, never experienced this before but currently on my server if I craft something in my inventory it doesn’t appear there. My inventory is completely empty, makes the sound as if it’s being crafted but doesn’t show the item being crafted or show up in my inventory. Same as harvesting, if I punch a tree it doesn’t show the resources being gathered and no resources show up in my inventory.

Only started happening today, was working fine yesterday

[solemn zephyr]

Clear your cosmetics tab, then fast travel

[hidden prairie]

It doesn’t show I have any cosmetics, I don’t think I’ve even crafted any tbh as I’ve not long opened the server

[solemn zephyr]

Check all the tabs.... a lot of stuff goes in there... default survivor skins.... dyes.. paints... skins... etc

[hidden prairie]

Yeah it’s literally not showing anything, my inventory is completely empty

[opal needle]

Is it possible you have folders turned on and you are in a folder, or a letter typed into the small text box in the top left?

[silver thistle]

Levels of dinos if ur referring to wild dinos u would need to increase the difficulty to increase above 150, if u mean u want like erm rag levels this is someone u can do in the ini files there's also a mod called custome levels which helps increase dinos,

As for the weight u gunna just have to do increments untill ur happy, most people tend to have either unlimited weight or have weights go up in like 100 at a time or some where close to that, it all depends how u want it. All this is so much easier with beacon to control btw,

I can help u via beacon if u want but would need info happy for u to dm me and I can assist you in sorting ur server so it's how u want it if u would like

[astral nebula]

Hello everyone,

I am running a server cluster with 15 mods most being QoL and 3 maps. AB, SE, IS
For some reason on Aberration the quakes are stopping almost instantly and we cannot figure out why. I have checked all the mods and do not see any option to disable quakes or a bot that maybe entering the admin command to stop the quakes.

Anybody have a good guess or know why this maybe happening?

[hidden prairie]

Nope nothing like that, I rolled back my server and it worked, however once entering gcm the same problems occurred

[thick acorn]

i dm'd you!

[rugged tendon]

I heard dreadmare taming was bugged with the summoning altar. Is this true?

[languid bramble]

Same to me and several people I play with, we unistalled the game, that didn't work, also did the fast travel trick, also didn't work.

[hidden prairie]

Strange, I’d read uninstalling helps so uninstalled last night. Will try again later, have you tried playing on another server or single player? Single player worked fine for me which makes me think it’s an issue with my nitrado server

[arctic sage]

did you filter your inventory on the bottom of the screen, i think there is a filter option there

[lapis quest]

This sounds like the ''player'' map travel bug, once it happens you dont even see your inventory implant, after changing maps you spawn as a player instead your normal character name

Killing the character always worked for me tho

[hidden prairie]

I tried this, it also doesn’t show any engrams to craft whilst in gcm. Seems to be linked to gcm, after rolling back the server it worked fine, once I went into gcm it started happening again.

[hidden prairie]

Tried this as well, took gcm off and killed my character, nothing. Shut the game down and relogged, killed myself and the same thing occurred

I’ve uninstalled ark last night, will try again once I get home. If that doesn’t work my server is pretty fresh so I will uninstall the server and start again. Just strange how it hasn’t caused any issues on single player (gcm) only my server

Would of been handy to have someone else try and gcm and see if it worked for them tbh, I have a couple of premium mods so finding someone to test it has been difficult lol

[arctic sage]

are you by chance running any stacking mods? those sometimes screw up since they can change stuff

[hidden prairie]

Yes! However the mod worked fine for the first couple of days, I will remove the mod before uninstalling the server and see if that helps

[hidden prairie]

Just got home, tried it again after uninstalling ark and it’s working fine now. Might not be a fix for all but if anyone else has that problem, this could work

Thanks for suggestions all ✌️

[lapis quest]

Theres a guy on our server with a problem almost like yours, he cant see engrams inside a chemistry bench at all. We tried everything possible, nothing works lol

[hidden prairie]

I did see other ways of fixing things like that, by removing mods and reinstalling them (the player) maybe see if that works?

[lapis quest]

Even uninstalling the game didnt fixed it

At this point the only thing that i can imagine is a character corruption

[distant hearth]

is it just the chem bench? have they tried the usual shit, pick it up an put down again, mind wipe , die etc etc

[lapis quest]

More than once

Only the chem bench is bugged

[distant hearth]

weird asf , usually if just one item pickup an put down work

[lapis quest]

Was the first thing we thought

He installed the game again, swapped languages, re-installed all possible mods

Works normal for everyone else but him

i wanna do a big shout out to @silver thistle he really helped me with my server!! someone hire him or something! thank you again!!!

[dusty frost]

How can i set op a server i want one to me and my brother so we can make youtube videos whit it please help

@silver thistle please help me i don’t know how to set op an ark server whit mods and whit 10 slots

[silver thistle]

10 slots ? Sounds like u trying to set up a ase server with mods ?

Asa I'm sure is 20 slots don't think it does 10 anymore, you need to purchase a server via nitrado or do one via single player

[dusty frost]

Allright i will try nitrado but if it don’t work can i just contact you

Nitrado does have server for 10 slots @silver thistle but do you think it could hold 13-20 mods

[silver thistle]

ARK SURVIVAL ASCENDED IS. Minutes 20 slots I'm looking at it right now even custom is 20 minimal

Sounds to me like ur getting ark survival evolved which does not have mods.

But to answer your question regarding mod quantity,

My personal opinion 30 mods is where I put my limit.. how ever I know servers with 80+ mods that also run fine just depends on the mods you want

[dusty frost]

What about survival evolved

[silver thistle]

Ase doe not run mods, unless your on PC which then I think it does but not for console, can see ur discord shows PC, so yeah you should be fine, but I don't know to much regarding ase and running mods as I played official from start to Finnish before running my own server on asa

[dusty frost]

What is ase

[silver thistle]

Ark survival evolved

[dusty frost]

Oh

[silver thistle]

Can you not get ARK ascended ?

Has much more to offer and gameplay is much better

[dusty frost]

I can’t affort it

[silver thistle]

Aww i see its 7 more a month

Can u and ur friend not split the bill

[dusty frost]

Can i text you private i need to show you a picture of the server i want to by

[silver thistle]

Swt up a paypal or something, otherwise u may just be best to run dedicated server, but even then I have no idea if mods are free or what on ark evolved if you own ark ascended I would suggest doing single player and downloading mods via that

Sure

[dusty frost]

I just did @silver thistle

[near stream]

Hello, I have a PS4 and I have a problem that I would like to know if anyone knows the solution to. The problem is that when I try to play on an online server a message appears that says "No sessions found" since yesterday this problem has happened to me, I have tried restarting my console, uninstalling and reinstalling Ark and in no way can I play, if anyone knows how to solve my problem, please tell me. Thanks

[silver thistle]

Reboot your server. Or get the host to reboot it, I had that this morning, my server was active but now showing, I had to deploy server and it cams back

[modest linden]

Hiya
I’m trying to solve an overspawn issue of Meganeura in the swamp cave on island.
Does anyone have any recommendations please 🙏🏻

[white garnet]

thats just how the swamp cave is, you can reduce meganeura spawn rate overall but best to just get a megatherium in there

[frail crescent]

Yeah that is a default for the swamp cave. Bring a frog

[vapid lark]

(ASE) If i would like to change the quality on loot drops (and the caves drops) how do i do it? When googleing it, some says i need a mod and other says i need to change something in the GameUserSettings file. So which one is it? Asking here, coz i dont wanna mess up something in my settings

[frail crescent]

Its a big whole mess of a config you would have to do to affect the beacon drops. The cave drops you can adjust with the SupplyCrateLootQualityMultiplier=1.0.

Thats in the Game.ini file

[vapid lark]

Im playing on abberation, so are the drops on there considered as cave drops? Or does it only affect the drops in the "actual" caves?

[frail crescent]

That idk, you would have to flip the config and test and actually see

[vapid lark]

okay thanks

[flint oasis]

Okay ... Why is my server (not nitrado my own personal computer) not changing the MaxPlayers=70 to MaxPlayers=20? I change it, save it, start it, and it changes it back to 70

[distant hearth]

-winlivemaxplayers=20 if its an ark ascended server

[flint oasis]

I may have forgotten to put that this time around lmao Thanks bro! You're always on top of shit

[sly storm]

Hey guys, this is my first new map drop since switching my dedi servers over to use ASM... Question for fellow admins, how long does it usually take for server manager to get an update to allow for downloading/implementing the new map? I'm assuming since it connects to steam for those downloads, it would be pretty instant, but figured I'd check to help curb expectations for my player base.

[distant hearth]

its usually within the hour for the update to release, you will have the added wait for the server manager to update up aswell, unless they have already the option for extinction map in already

[sly storm]

Awesome. Thank you for the info. Already got my profile and files ready to roll with it so hopefully there isn't much delay.

[slate condor]

Hello I was curious if there was anyone that knew how to set up and unofficial server on ark to relay cluster messages to a specified discord channel in a discord server. I’ve been in a few where something like this was a thing. I’m curious is it a pain to set up? Or is it a pretty easy thing to do?

[lilac veldt]

theres some mods on curseforge and also ASA Api

[slate condor]

I’ll take a look into it. Thank you 🙏🏻

[flint oasis]

Yeah if it were Nitrado tho it takes forever and then you have to add the map in the custom slot temporarily lol happened to us for ab and se 😛

Bat files are ready to go! 😛 I hope I spelled Extinction right lmao

[distant hearth]

Extinction_WP
copy paste from there test servers lolz 🙂

[flint oasis]

Thanks 😄

[hasty hemlock]

hello all does anyone here have experience running a dedicated server in asa? I have followed nooblets guide on youtube and did all the port forwarding and tried to post back to him but I do not know what I am doing wrong to where I can not see my server in the game list? (I can see the server on battlemetrics and see that is says online) -- message to nooblets "So I have followed all of your guides on how to do this, and they are great, love them! But I am having issues finding my server, ports are forwarded and all that, and the servers are setup correctly, tested one with and without mods. The only thing I can think is this:
I own ark on my main account and play there, main gaming PC, but the server is installed on a separate PC, but that PC has to run a different steam account for my valheim server, just easier that way, do I need to buy ark on this second account in order to run the server properly or does it not have anything to do with steam??? Would love your insight on this!
Thank you."

[distant hearth]

can you join the server using
"open ipadress:port"

pull the server ip and port number from battlemetrics website
some people have issues using port 7777udp
you can try 7778 udp, set with -port=7778 in the batch file

obv u wud need to forward that port through firewall and router too

[restive heron]

Can someone help me out. I made my Nitrado weight per level 2.6 and it only increased weight by 10. Does anyone know what settings would make it increase by at least 30?

[distant hearth]

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

[hasty hemlock]

I get a host connection timeout, I am using port 7778, and the ark server creation tool

[distant hearth]

not familair with the tools i do mine manually, double check on battlemetrics that the server is actually using port 7778
timeout is usually port forwarding problems

[hasty hemlock]

oh wait, where do I put the -port=7778, just anywhere in the .ini?

[distant hearth]

no, thats a batch file/start command , it doesnt go in ini

[hasty hemlock]

I think the .ini files only have the rcon port thing

[distant hearth]

are u just using the server you download through the steam program itself ? ? if so that will default to 7777udp

you wud need to write a seperate batch file for it , or set the command as a launch command

[restive heron]

I have put in the correct stuff but for whatever reason at 2.6 it still only increases weight by 10 points per level

[distant hearth]

10 points per level is default so u must be something not quite right

2.6 shud give like 26 points per level as its a mutiplier

[hasty hemlock]

okay I found that the launcher is using the 7787 as a port so that is correct

[distant hearth]

seems odd to me , but if thats what battlemetrics says the server is running on, that is the port to forward

[hasty hemlock]

and this is what I should follow as far as forwarding goes right?

[distant hearth]

its for ark ascended right?

[hasty hemlock]

oh I must not be able to paste an image

Yes for asa

[restive heron]

Do I need to enable expert mode like how u used to on evolved? Because I see no option for that

[distant hearth]

no u cant, copy an paste the txt from the ini file if thats what ure trying to show

[distant hearth]

not for asa no, shud just let you into the ini files

[restive heron]

Hmm and I can put the code on any line right?

[hasty hemlock]

how much do I copy? the whole thing or what?

[distant hearth]

no, it has to go in the correct file under the correct header as the link i gave shows

so shud be in game.ini
under the header
[/script/shootergame.shootergamemode]

[distant hearth]

sry one sec i got mixed up, how do you start the server?

[restive heron]

That might be the problem I don’t see that script

[distant hearth]

nitrado servers auto generate it afaik , so make sure u looking in the right place

[restive heron]

Oh I do see it! It’s just different from where my friends is! I’m an idiot thank you

[bleak ivy]

make sure you are in the correct one. game.ini vs gameusersettings.ini

[hasty hemlock]

I use a program called ark server creation tool - I followed a guide from the youtuber Nooblets and there is a "start server" button built into the program with all the settings that you and change and edit the .ini files, and it makes some firewall edits to allow itself to talk

[distant hearth]

hmm idk then , half those tools cause more issues than i can ever figure out , some work, some just dont.
i can send you a txt guide i wrote about setting a server up manually with batch files downloading the server files via STMCmd if that helps at all ?

[hasty hemlock]

I will try that out sure. Thank you.

[restive heron]

Thank you guys! My next question is I have mating interval at .11
Bby mature speed at 2.4
Cuddle interval at 1.13

Everything else is 1

Right now it’s making it so the cuddle interval is every 9 hours

How do I make it so things grow on average within 2 hours and can get full imprint.

And mating interval is on average an hour or less

These settings worked for my single player but don’t seem to work here

[distant hearth]

theres a great program called ark beacon omni, lets u adjust all the ating settings an see the effect on every dino , the free version lets u do the mating

[restive heron]

Is it a website or like an app?

[bleak ivy]

PC app

[distant hearth]

its a program, idk why they insit calling them apps as thats more a phone thing

[bleak ivy]

application

[distant hearth]

anyhow off topic lolz, gimme a sec i give you rough numbers for what u want

[restive heron]

Idk if I want to download anything on my computer. Would Dododex happen to tell me roughly what numbers I need? Because I don’t need anything super accurate. I would just like things to get 100% imprint and like maybe Rex to take 2 hours to grow

Like im down to just test stuff worst case scenario

Because this is my work computer so I don’t want anything crazy on it

[distant hearth]

BabyCuddleIntervalMultiplier=0.04
BabyCuddleLoseImprintQualitySpeedMultiplier=1
BabyFoodConsumptionSpeedMultiplier=1
BabyImprintAmountMultiplier=100
BabyImprintingStatScaleMultiplier=1
BabyMatureSpeedMultiplier=46
EggHatchSpeedMultiplier=20
LayEggIntervalMultiplier=1
MatingIntervalMultiplier=0.04
MatingSpeedMultiplier=1```

[bleak ivy]

48x mature speed. 0.04 cuddle interval.

[distant hearth]

roughly what u want

[bleak ivy]

yeah that works too lol.

[distant hearth]

what @bleak ivy said

i just quickly put it into beacon an copy pasted the ini lolz

[restive heron]

Thanks guys I appreciate the help

I’ll definitely consider beacon! I’m just a paranoid person when it comes to downloading stuff

[distant hearth]

beacon is 100% safe , thousands use it, i have the paid version which does a hell of alot , but used the free version for years too

[errant fox]

Would definitely back Beacon as being safe. Love the app and what they ask for it is more than reasonable pricing. The QOL it provides is something I couldn't go without.

[distant hearth]

i used do all my server coding manually, no way i wud anymore after using beacon

[errant fox]

Fear ascended is good for removal right? We held off on removal waiting for Turkey Trials but then just left it because server didn't mind it.

[distant hearth]

yea fine to remove

[errant fox]

Would also like to put out Beacon support is amazing too. They always help with questions and even patched a bug I found pretty quickly.

[flat egret]

is there a way to turn off cryo cooldown on singleplayer?

[bleak ivy]

enable PvE. if you want PvP (so you can kill unclaimed dinos) you have to use a mod.

[flat egret]

so there isnt like a ini setting like EnableCryoSickness or anything i can use?

[bleak ivy]

not for PvP

[flat egret]

well if killing claimed dinos is the only drawback im fine with it

[bleak ivy]

every other difference (that I know of) has a setting

its just cryo sickness being disabled on PvE, and being able to kill unclaimed dinos on PvP.

[broken halo]

So has anyone heard any rumors on when we can expect to hear anything for either ext or WW

[jaunty vortex]

They posted in announcements earlier.

[fathom basalt]

how do i host my own server. I just got a awesome new pc for it

[flint oasis]

If it doesnt come today it wont until january

[iron bronze]

Was Winter Wonderland cancelled?

[bleak ivy]

no, #general pins.

[dense briar]

Why is the server not showing up

[iron bronze]

Ah, thanks
