Administrator Jatheish Posted September 23, 2016 Administrator Share Posted September 23, 2016 A new server has been revealed, this one is everyone’s favourite.. server ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ machine, the Cross ARK Cluster! Hey Survivors! We’ve launched some new Official PC/Xbox Servers. These function differently to the regular Official Servers on the ARK Network as they permit complete transferring; of Items, Tames, and Survivors through all 3 maps. We won’t be changing the other Official Servers to follow this behaviour, but are curious to see how these ones play out. Something very important to note is that these new servers are on their own cluster, which means they’re separated from everything else, and can only transfer within each other. To make it clear, you will not be able to move to other Official Servers which exist outside this cluster. List of Servers Available: NA-XboxCrossArkCluster1-TheIsland NA-XboxCrossArkCluster1-TheCenter NA-XboxCrossArkCluster1-ScorchedEarth EU-XboxCrossArkCluster2-TheIsland EU-XboxCrossArkCluster2-TheCenter EU-XboxCrossArkCluster2-ScorchedEarth NA-CrossARKCluster1-Scorched Earth NA-CrossARKCluster1-TheCenter NA-CrossARKCluster1-TheIsland EU-TheHundredCrossArk2-TheIsland EU-TheHundredCrossArk2-TheCenter EU-TheHundredCrossArk2-ScorchedEarth EU-XboxTheHundredCrossArk3-TheIsland EU-XboxTheHundredCrossArk3-TheCenter EU-XboxTheHundredCrossArk3-ScorchedEarth Things to note about these servers: They are completely brand new, so the map is untouched! The server difficulty has been increased to 5.0 across the board, so it will be tougher than the regular experience and higher level creatures are available. They will remain online, and receive updates as other servers do. These are PvP Servers These servers are available now, so good luck Survivors and let us know what you think about them!

Wondering if WC is going to release an Official Dedicated Server setup prg. Hosting providers, and ASM, or ARK Remote, or Steam launch properties, have had 18 pages of trying to figure out HOW to actually make the clusters in One folder vs SymLink work, or not be broken after the latest update. I want to host a dedicated cluster with the three maps (plus the new procedurally generated ARKS), but there is No Straight Forward way of setting up listed (officially) I do SOTF servers, with mods, and have done TheIsland OR TheCenter, but can't get the clustering hammered out. ------ Wondering if WC is going to release an Official Dedicated Server setup prg (capable of clusters, etc) ----- Thanks.

jjfats Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 I wonder if they could allow transfer from a specified machine or user only. Like in the settings you can add a specific gamertag that's running the server or Machine ID number that will only allow transfers from that user. This will block downloads from other servers and allow easy clustering for server hosts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cluster ~ is a unique signature that says what servers can pass data to each other. Eg. servers that have "849X9-GHT74" as a signature can pass data to each other, but could not pass character/tames/data to a cluster with the signature of "4938D-GH7634-GZX33" If you find my comments useful please up rep them in corner of this comment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was saying that one way would to have a server setting that you can put in the name of another server to allow transfers to and from only those servers. You could put up to two other eligible server this way you can have an island , center, and scorched earth linked together. Also if you had a friend that had a server and you had a server in different locations they could still create a cluster together. I was saying for xbox they could use the gamertag because if its running the server that's all it can do but it would be easy to find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We both know that. That is not the topic. The experience of the mad rush on a new server opening is what some enjoy. Shouldn't be your concern how others want to play the game.
