Learn more about these features in the Ansel Technology page and the NVIDIA blog. How to run NVIDIA Ansel First of all, you'll want to make sure you're running the latest Nvidia Geforce Drivers - so head over to http://www.geforce.com/ and get downloading! Once setup and ready to go, right click ARK: Survival Evolved in your steam library and you'll see the option to Launch ARK with NVIDIA Ansel Select this and head into a single player game, regardless of the map or the mod. Once you're in game, you can immediately press ALT + F2 to get into Ansel Photography mode and start taking snaps. or you can type in the following command in the console: cheat enablespectator Once that is enabled, hit your DELETE key and it'll open the Depth of Field Options menu where you can play around with the games DOF. Then hit ALT+F2 and take some awesome Ansel photography! Here's a little tip from Jesse: Quote You can also type "enablespectator true" in the console to fly around before you take your shot, and hit the "Home" key to level your camera if you want to keep people from feeling sick on a 360 stereo VR screenshot. ARKitect! This is an award ($200 prize for first and $100 for any runners up) given to Survivors to celebrate the amazing structures you build. These bases are judge based upon a number of different factors such as their creativity, uniqueness, how fun of a base it is, the difficulty of building it, the functionality it provides and much more! At the end of each week, the winners and runner-ups will be featured in our #ARKitect section of the Community Crunch and will be awarded cash prizes!

Administrator Jatheish Posted September 30, 2017 Author Administrator Share Posted September 30, 2017 Hey guys! We had a little chat about the video length requirement we mentioned in the last Crunch and it's clear with the amount of detail and work you put into the entries, it's very difficult to fit into that timeline. Now we're only including it as a recommended guideline, but not necessary to follow. Just please keep in mind if it's overly long, we may not be able to view all of it, and including timestamps and pictures (for the ARKitect entries!) are a great tool Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MissyPrime Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 My last entry was a partial build of what I call Skyrider City, it wasn't finished due to a server crash/wipe but still managed to be a runner up, thanks everyone. I was determined to finish this build so this was built on my solo world, this time I used prim+ for the added level of detail available & I also used the no clipping enabled. I made this build in 6 days (& on the 7th day I rested). I put the video on my channel before the time limits were introduced, sorry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolf Angelus Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 October means 31 days of Halloween, so here is the first terrifying design. A mansion that is hell itself. The goal was to create the most evil and nightmarish design/atmosphere possible, so kind of old, retro, and creepy to mimic several of the classic horror designs. Some rooms are simply candles, and some very basic furniture to mimic some of those creepy scenes from movies, and some a bit more elaborate, but always keeping the old and nightmarish feel. Because of the lights flickering effect, it made it hard to do good images. ARKitect Submission:The Old, Possessed Mansion on Horror Hill Images: *Note the light flickers make it harder to get the image timing right.
