Will update you shortly. ..edit.. Amissa seems to load fine for me. Volcano was never supported, unless you added it to maps.json yourself? I will investigate adding support in the next build. Ps. If you can't get Amissa working I will investigate if you can upload the save folder somehwere I can download and debug. ... edit 2... Re-packaged and re-uploaded to same download link. Added support for TheVolcano.ark and included map image in the maps folder. Thanks again @Larkfields - adding a new map is so much easier now Edited January 14, 2022 by MirageUK Added support for The Volcano 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MirageUK Posted January 14, 2022 Author Share Posted January 14, 2022 (edited) On 1/13/2022 at 5:48 PM, Larkfields said: I copy the ".ark" savefile before running Mirage's utility - and run the util on the copy. You'll need to edit maps.json so it knows the name of the copied file. It should only hold the .ark save whilst loading Ark Viewer (or downloading if ftp) - once loaded everything should be in memory and the file locks released. Checking the code I have the stream wrapped up in a Using statement (technical code stuff) and assumed this would close and clean up any file lock. I will investigate an explicit .Close() on the next build to see if that helps. ..scrap that. Based on that information from the dev code I have no idea why a file lock would persist on the main .ark save once it's loaded. Should definitely not have to close ASV to release the lock as it uses its own in-memory version of the objects once loaded.

CyberGameZone Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 Thank you for looking into this. All I did was download the app, click on the app to start. Added map with FTP info. I didnt make changes to anything else. I'm no coder nor understand other than it displays cool stuff. I have downloaded and installed the new file ver 4.2.0.0 Loaded Amissa and Volcano. Still failed. The FTP part passed though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larkfields Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 Hi Mirage. I copy the .ark file out of habit now - a hang-over from the days when your util used to take a bit longer to process the files. I figure that my scripts are working as they are so there's no need to break them 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you please let me know the error report information on the latest release when loading each map? I can at least see what the code is attempting to do. Alternatively upload your save folder somewhere after it has downloaded and I can load it into my dev environment to debug and hopefully provide a fix.

Larkfields Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 Hi Mirage. The Crystal Isle coords seemed to be out a little bit. I've recalculated the figures for maps.json to be... { "MapName": "Crystal Isles", "Filename": "crystalisles.ark.ark", "ImageFile": "map_crystalisles.png", "LatShift": 48.687, "LatDiv": 15882.02, "LonShift": 49.9481, "LonDiv": 16988.76 } Spreadsheet is attached for reference.

Cheers ..edit.. No need to investigate. Your filename's are the issue. ASV supports maps by filename. So "Amissa_16.01.2022_17.33.12.ark" would not be recognised without you first altering maps.json. The expected filename is Amissa.ark. I will add additional checks to give a better error message but the map filename is used to determine other various things - in this case any custom map markers. With that filename it is unable to find the appropriate data. For now, I would recommend a similar approach to what @Larkfields uses. A batch file or something similar to copy the save directory out to another folder. Rename the Amissa save file as necessary and run against the "copy" folder. ..edit 2.. Will investigate pulling the map name from the save content so that any filename can be used in a future build. Edited January 17, 2022 by MirageUK Seen filename format in the backup.

MirageUK Posted January 17, 2022 Author Share Posted January 17, 2022 Version 4.2.1.0 now available. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1kJsR2NSa_arKwjIjf5J93Xp1IFLksVNE/view?usp=sharing Features: Now reads original map filename from the .ark save file. This means that you can name the save anything you want and it will use the internal file information to determine correct map lat/lon calculations to use. @Larkfields any anybody else that has changed the maps.json will want to use my version again - the filenames in there should be the "original" ark save filename. Updated maps.json with co-ordinate calculation values provided by @Larkfields for Crystal Isles.

CyberGameZone Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 (edited) Thanks for looking again more into this. The filename I selected from FTP was amissa.ark not the zipped filename. The ARK directory from server hosts has mapname.ark and then throughout the day creates all these zip files, but always a amissa.ark remains. All the ARK servers I admin do this. Even LostIsland. So why it worked on one, and not the other I dont understand. And its only on the nonDLC maps. I will download your update and see what happens. Thank you *the suggested fix will not work for many hosted servers from hosting companies. They block that sort of things to be done. ie: no batch, no exe. K, updated to ver 4.2.1.0, same result.

Re-checking your save file it does error out. Not on the same line you provided but attempting to load the save file it finds some "extra data" it isn't expecting.

MirageUK Posted January 17, 2022 Author Share Posted January 17, 2022 Ok. Mis-leading error.

CyberGameZone Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 New question: All players are listed as MALE. Why? When in fact the players are also female. And if the response is that its based on their SteamIDs as registered for those male playing as female- I know some true females as SteamIDs but the app is showing all male. If this is normal, its ok. Just curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pleinx Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 Greetz Guys. Was longer time away. I'm not sure, but i remeber someone has run this tool under a linux system, right? I doesnt mean the GUI version, just this export all: ARKSaveViewer.exe all "C:\ARK\latest\aberration\Aberration_P.ark" "C:\ARK\output\aberration\" Any howto? I think about to sell my windows server and put this tool to my ubuntu machine. Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MirageUK Posted January 21, 2022 Author Share Posted January 21, 2022 (edited) @pleinx - ASVExport is compiled under .net core and should run on linux. ArkSaveViewer.exe has windows specific references in for the GUI. @CyberGameZone player listing all as male is a bug. I do retrieve the correct gender but then somewhere along the load I'm either ignoring or overwriting it. I'm going to be spending some time over the weekend investigating a couple of other bits so will try and get it fixed at same time for the next build.

Herokumo Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 Hi, I just downloaded this and was having an issue viewing Crystal Isle information. I found that the maps.json file was looking for "crystalisles.ark.ark", updating this file fixed the issue. I did check the files on github as well and that line appears there as well in the master branch. Just thought you should know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markos Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Can this tool be used to find the bugged spoiled wyvern eggs? On the map I play there are wyvern eggs randomly dropped on the map that spoil and don't disappear because of the bug. So they need to be picked up to be deleted otherwise the nests will stay empty. Or is there a command to remove all (spoiled) wyvern eggs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
