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 set up 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!

Wolf Angelus Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 Aberration inspired design (mushroom houses) with a strong enchanted forest theme. Lots of color and glowyness to go for that fun, fantasy feel, and keep it practical. 16 houses & 4 dino pens, with a fair amount of space in each. Videos will now be slideshow format here on out, I hope that is still enjoyable. I was rather sad to have to change to this : < . The issue seems CPU related and ARK using 80%, and OBS needed 40%, so it was video capturing taking the hit causing the output to be what it was, only started since the new year too oddly.

Sitharias Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 Heya, here's an entry for Arkitect Not an actual base build (yet), more of a concept build. Wanted to see if I could make a (roughly) to scale train. Rails are tek walls positioned so they clip through the stone, wheels are tek generators, and I have an industrial grinder inside of the locomotive for that engine-like-look that you can see through the gaps. No mods and I'm using official building settings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tlc138 Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 Hello all! Here is my entry for this weeks Arkitect. This is inspired by Captain Fatdogs round foundations build. After speaking with him i decided to go ahead and enter It as i do think it’s a amazing build. It’s a truly round base build. Built as always on Xbox one with No Mods what so ever.

SWChris Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 For ARKitect: The SWChris Creatives' Ragnarok Server Community Center I started with the new cliff platforms, mixing brand new UFO-shaped buildings with an ancient medieval castle, creating that cool Gargoyles-esque mix of old and new that you never really see anywhere except for strange Disney cartoons from the mid-90's. The entire video chronicles its creation, but the relevant timecode for the contest is a tour of the exterior and exterior areas created by myself, with added details by Karmesin and interior design by Lapis is Silver. Relevant Timecode: Starts at 12:46 and continues to 17:30. Architectural features: UFO-shaped garden and aviary buildings! Flying buttresses! Medieval construction! Cool but functional interior design! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThePilgrim Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 ThePilgrim-ARKVideo-Wingin it !!! Hey this is my submission for ARK Video. I love watching the wingsuit videos on youtube, some of the stunts those guys pull off are insane, especially the close proximity runs inches from the cliff face and through forests. So I figured I would make my own, of course on ARK, if I tried this in real life I would look like a flag full of rocks rolling down a mountainside ;/ I start off with a couple of easy jumps and then ramp things up a bit @Sitharias That Train is so cool reminds me of the one from Back to the Future Good luck @Jen Hey did I enter this too late to get a fan feature in CC 118? or has it been done before? or did it just suk >.< lol I don't mind was just wondering Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
