Server Cluster Breeding Need help So im running my own cluster The Grand Line and im running into some breeding issues, the breeding times are all good but the levels are lacking, So lets say you have 2 dinos at base level 500 with no levels. You breed them, and the babies come out around 490s. I want them to come out more so around 500 and up so players can breed and breed and breed and get dinos that are level 600 and keep climbing. Is there a set ini plugin for that? Im using the Nitrado Expert settings. Thank you.

Cryopod Cool done Hey so I run a server on xbox and was wondering if there was a way to reduce the cryopod cooldown in the .ini. Thanks in advance

How Can I View All Tribes in my Unofficial PC Ark server? Is there an admin command that displays a list of all current tribes (and their tribe IDs) on my server? I dont see it in the "showmyadminmanager" UI. Btw I'm running Ark 1.1.793.40. I'm playing on xbox one, but I rented my server from Nitrado, so it's classified as an unofficial PC session.

Nitrado Coding Hi so I've recently brought a nitrado xbox server. When I started setting it yp5in genral setting there was a option to change the event. But at the time I overlooked it. Then I went to Expert settings to carry on with the coding for my server. But now I would like to activate the valentines event. However I have been told that if I switch from expert settings go genral it will delete everything. Any chance anyone knows how to do it in Expert settings? Thanks in advance

Xbox RP. Prim plus? Feed back wanted. Players needed! RP, Prim +, Private Server on Xbox idea. Hear me out, read it all before jumping to conclusions. I've been tossing around the idea of a Prim + somewhat RP server. I would be disabling a lot of engrams and instead giving one tribe the ability to make things by giving them the only smithies on the map, another tribe would be farmers, another tribe bakers or cooks, another tribe wood cutter, an each would be given the best Dino for their tribes profession. This would enforce cooperation, all tribes could be allied, if enough people are interested it could be a PvP server. Player resistance would be buffed, taming would be highly difficult to dissuade mass taming of useless Dinos HOWEVER i would admin spawn in high level dino pairs (with saddle) for each tribe, and dino breeding would be buffed so you could possibly trade with other tribes for other dinos for for protection. Its an idea that could be fun i think. If it gets enough interest i could set it up on a Nirtrado server. Its something geared more towards community and less toward the tame now and build massive mindset that has ruined PVE official. Yes i'm sick of behemoth gates as walls and lag inducing structures and foundation spamming because i'm too old for that juvenile nonsense Lol. This would be for the people who grind, the people who want to play without other tribes pillar spamming. A discord server would be started and though participation not required would be encouraged, if you want to join and do your own thing just let me know so you can be left alone. Ill check this regularly to see if there is any interest. Server would either Rag, Scorched or Val. The island is too played out, abb is too much trouble, Extinction is good but i dont think conducive for this idea, but i could be wrong. If this idea isn't for you, i understand. This would be a long term thing, a place where people play often or sporadically. I would act as a trader to get goods and serviced to people who need them when the professional tribe is offline, though quality would not be as good as the professional tribe, who will get BP for most objects ie apprentice or journeyman. This is what i think Ark should have started out as, then expanded to the do whatever idea it is now. I played official for almost 4 years on Primative (Not prim+) when it was a thing, private server since rag released official. I've been around a long time in the back round just waiting for the right moment to release the idea. I'm open to a discussion of idea improvements and other options if this one isn't quiet right but close to the mark.

New server, hosting with nitrado. Hello! I am starting a new cluster server through Nitrado. I need some help. I've heard many different things, first I heard that I need to host from my PC, and play on xbox on an alt account. Then I heard I can host direct from Nitrado & play on xbox. Can anybody explain how this words? I haven't purchased the server yet, so I cannot get into Nitrado without purchasing. Also, I was curious if anybody could give me a run down of their wild dino, tamed dino and human stats? I really am pushing for a "balanced" server. My max level wild dino level will be 300, and my max level for humans will be 132. I feel comfortable with coding as I plan on using mostly Omni. Just could use some help with the stuff listed above and if you have any other tips, tricks or advice, I would appreciate it!

When I started my nitrado server i wanted the engrams to auto unlock and so now ill be telling you how to make this happen on your nitrado server for xbox,pc or ps4 servers. So first if you want engrams to auto unlock make sure that you are under general then turn on expert settings and save changes now under the settings tab there should be a tab called expert settings you click that now there should be a slide box that says gameusersettings.ini change that to game.ini now scroll all the way down till to the bottom click at the ned of the last setting there and hit enter and type bAutoUnlockAllEngrams=true this will allow you to unlock every engram at your level when leveling up but if you spam something into like stamina the screen will be filled with the learning of the engrams also when you reach level 100 or higher you will unlock all the tea engrams i do not know how to fix this but if you use this be aware of that. Also make sure your server was stopped when you changed the settings in the game.ini and if your server is stopped there will be an option to save changes. This is all you need to know if you want to make your engrams to auto unlock in your server. Let me know if this was helpful and bye.

Primitive Plus Visual Glitches The ark primitive plus servers on the ps4 are experiencing a visual glitch with the Valguero map. We have had to deal with the flat and texture-less trees since the last "fix" when primitive plus would only load a black screen. Now we have giant red hills and texture-less sand. It is almost like Wildcard is deliberately trying to slowly make Primitive Plus worse and worse until no one plays it so they do not have to fix the constant mistakes they make because no one tests how the big updates will effect us primitive plus players. Prove me wrong by actually including primitive plus in your testing phase, if you have one since almost every update breaks your game.

PS4 deprecated official servers - how do they work? Hi! I've been wantig to add raid servers for my cluster and heard that it was possible to load in old legacy servers to a Nitrado server. I found the list and have now tried about 20 different saves, but there is nothing to raid but thatch huts and wooden buildings. All the big ones seem to have dissappeared, cause I can see the outline of where they used to be. Played on a cluster a while ago that had these raid servers that admins would just hulk up a bit, but not rebuild the whole thing (since it was already there) Anyone got any experience with this for PS4 and might wanna give me some pointers? Thanks!

Nitrado, Managarmr issue I really need someone to help me.. For some reasons, on my nitrado server, the Manas can't only do one jump and 1 dash forward. Nothing more I can jump, dash, slide towards (to do another dash) but then I can't dash again Also I can only jump 3 times in a row, then I stops from doing anything I don't really know what's wrong with it

NITRADO IMPRINTING SETTINGS Playing on PS4 I know that's pretty hard to get some nice settings but I have 2 questions I ve been playing for a while in a server where rexes needed 9 seconds to cuddle, giving 9% imprint So in like 1.30 minutes you can get the 100% imprint How is that possible? The second question is I'm hosting a 50x server but, somehow I get just 1% imprinting from gigas.. I need some serious help because somehow my server settings raptored up.

Breeding Settings Hello, So I used to have a server and had the best breeding stats I could come up with. Recently I rented another Nitrado server and this time I'm raising Manags. I tried using my old settings, but couldn't seem to find the discussion from them, might have been deleted for some reason. Does anyone have any idea as too which settings I could use to breed manags with almost 100% imprint? My old server had about 11 minute intervals and I remember it took about 6 hours to raise Gigas and Quetzals. Any input is apreciated!

I have just created a ark mobile server on nitrado and now I want to know how to join it from my phone. Please help.

So I was told that I can just turn off the timer by setting (AlwaysAllowStructurePickUp=True) so now I don’t need a timer which is good but when every time I go up to a structure instead of going to option first It would just say pick up Which in some cases I tend to break stuff on accident, which is bother some for some of my friends and I. I was wondering if there’s a way to fix this issue.

Ark Server Cluster Renting Group Xbox/Nitrado Hey fellow survivors, I'm looking for 3 other individuals to share a server cluster with on Ark (Xbox Platform). We would agree on reasonable settings, mods, etc. How it would work is each one of us would pay for one server a piece, each server hosting one of the vital maps (Ragnarok, Extinction, and Abberation, with the fourth hosting Genesis when it comes out.) Each of us would pay for our own server and map, and we all would be in the same cluster with the same cluster ID. Each map would have the same settings, and the rest can be worked out when the gang gets together. I would like to go through Nitrado. If anyone is interested please comment below. I think the cheapest servers were 14.99$ for 10 players at a time.

As Xbox players and hosts we've never had access to the .ini files to control our servers. Everything for us was pretty straightforward in terms of configuring settings, but we were also fairly limited in the amount of custom configuration we could implement. All of that of course changed when hosted servers arrived on scene, which opened us up to a whole-new-world of possibilities and headaches. I wanted to create this guide to help alleviate some of the pain associated with altering the .ini files, and to dispel some of the apprehension associated with implementing custom configuration code. I spent days researching, hours writing code, and hours fixing some of the mistakes I made. I figured some of you folks might find some value in the mistakes I've made, and what I've learned through my trial-by-fire. What follows is a sectional guide on the use of Expert Mode, and how to configure some of the more common custom configuration elements. NFD vs. Expert Mode When you first access the Nitrado Admin Console, you will find that they have created their own version of the configuration menu we had when running PDS through our consoles. It's all very straightforward and simplified, and it will look pretty familiar. For most of the settings you will want to alter, this is by far the easiest way to go about it. I have dubbed their console, Nitrado for Dummies. This is not to say you are a Dummy if you use this, but it is a simplified means of configuring the server; thus, the moniker. If you run a single server, and are apprehensive about altering the .ini files, this might be your best option for server configuration. A few things to consider before deciding which configuration mode you want to proceed with: How you want to customize your server: If you want to implement changes to level progression or custom stats, the NFD interface can be very time consuming (I'll get further into detail about these aspects later on) How many servers you run: if you run more than one server, and intend to implement customization, the NFD interface is a massive time-suck. Is your apprehension justified?: The simple reality here is that, there isn't a major difference between engaging the NFD interface, and directly manipulating the .ini files. Just like the NFD interface, every line item in the .ini file is easily identified. As an example: NightTimeSpeedScale=.7 DayTimeSpeedScale=.7 TamingSpeedMultiplier=3.0 HarvestAmountMultiplier=3.0 HarvestHealthMultiplier=3.0 Note: When switching to Expert Mode, most of the configuration options disappear from the General Settings interface. You will also notice that Engine Settings is replaced by Expert Settings. When switching from one configuration mode to the other, settings do not usually transfer. If you have been using the NFD interface for any period of time, it is probable that most configuration settings will show up in the .ini files; however, custom level progression and other custom configurations may not. Be sure to scan the .ini files to ensure that your server is configured according to your desires, check it again, and then proceed. Expert Mode Sounds fancy, right: Expert Mode, dun dun dun. It's neither as glamorous or as ominous as it might at first appear. If you've made it through this wall of text, and are now ready to start tinkering with the .ini files, here is where we begin. First things first, let's identify exactly what we're working with, and what goes where. To activate Expert Mode, you will navigate to the General Settings interface, click the little box at the top, and then click save. Once this is done, the pane on the left will look like: Let's go ahead and click on Expert Settings, and take a gander. You will notice that you're now nose-to-nose with an .ini file. Pretty unimpressive right? Feel free to scroll around, and familiarize yourself with what you're looking at. You'll notice that not all of your settings are here, and that's because there is more than one file in this interface. Click the area highlighted in red, and a drop down will appear. Once there, go ahead and click on Game.ini, the click Load File. You will notice that there is an Engine.ini in the drop down, but it is blank, and has nothing to do with what we're doing here. You will make use of both files in this interface when configuring your server, as they both contain different game variables. You will want to acclimate yourself with both of these files, so you know where everything is when you need to alter a variable. Note: Under GameUserSettings.ini you are going to see all manner of things you might be tempted to tinker with. Avoid altering settings directly under the following sections: [/Script/ShooterGame.ShooterGameUserSettings] [ScalabilityGroups] [/Script/Engine.GameSession] Alterable variables fall below the following sections: [SessionSettings] SessionName=[US] Ark FTW-Ragnarok (this is the name of your server, and can be changed at your leisure) [ServerSettings] (many of the settings you found under General Settings are now found here, and they can all be altered) AutoSavePeriodMinutes=15.000000 (this can be altered, but I have read there may be some performance related issues in so doing, so probably don't) In order to make any changes to these files, you're going to need to completely stop your server. Once the server is completely stopped, you can make any necessary alterations to the .ini files. Once those alterations have been made, click Save, and then go have yourself a cup of coffee. Nitrado recommends that you wait around 4 minutes before bringing your server back up, as the backend has to make conversions. I also always run a server check any time I make any changes, which is probably a good habit to acquire. If you don't wait, you may end up with corrupted data, so wait the 4 minutes. Now, let's talk about some of the custom configurations you can make, and some of the resources I've found helpful. Level Ramp Overrides This is just a fancy way of identifying the option to add a custom level scheme to your server, and it works for both Players and Dinos. I'm going to break this down into three sections: Players and Dinos, Engrams, and Resources...oh my? Players and Dinos How you proceed here will be largely dependent on the type of server you run. Using the Overrides you can add more levels, reduce the total number of levels, and completely reshape the way you progress through those levels. Altering the Dino progression scheme is straightforward; not so much for players. The game reserves 30 levels for ascension, so you need to keep this in mind when you're deciding on a max level. The easiest way to explain it is: If you want a max server level of 150, after ascension, you will simply add 150 levels If you want a max server level of 150, before ascension, you will need 180 levels in total Ramps Another factor to consider is how you want your ramp to work. What is a ramp you ask? Simply put, it is the increase in experience required per level. You can effectively create any ramping scheme you want with the override. The vanilla progression system uses a progressive ramp with a steep curve towards the end. I use the vanilla ramp up through 115, and then a wave scheme thereafter. Maybe you want a linear ramp where each level requires the same amount of experience. The world is your oyster here, so do whatever feels good to you. Code Now let's talk a bit about code, shall we? The method for coding is linear, but it is time consuming. There is an override variable for both Players and Dinos, and you will need to create a block of code for each if you intend to create custom level schemes for both. If you elect to override the vanilla level cap and progression, your code block MUST start at level 0, and MUST include every-single level you want to have on your server. I made the mistake of starting my code block at a specific level, instead of coding every level, and I magically transported every logged in player to level 82. So what does the code look like? Glad you asked: LevelExperienceRampOverrides=(ExperiencePointsForLevel[0]=5,ExperiencePointsForLevel[1]=20,ExperiencePointsForLevel[2]=40,ExperiencePointsForLevel[3]=70 As you can see, there isn't anything overly complicated about the actual syntax of the code. If you've noticed something odd, however, you're right to be suspicious. Level 0. Well, there is no Level 0 in the game, so what on earth is that for? When you first spawn on the beach, you are already at level 1, so it seems odd that this wouldn't start at level 2, right? Level 0 in this code block represents level 2 in-game. So if you are coding these blocks, always subtract 2 from the max level: If you want 180 total levels, your code block will start at Level 0 and end at Level 178. Engrams Points Now that you've coded out your level progression system, what about engram points? Just like with levels, you can employ any engram point scheme your wee heart desires, and it is all linear: OverridePlayerLevelEngramPoints=8 OverridePlayerLevelEngramPoints=8 OverridePlayerLevelEngramPoints=8 OverridePlayerLevelEngramPoints=8 OverridePlayerLevelEngramPoints=8 OverridePlayerLevelEngramPoints=8 OverridePlayerLevelEngramPoints=8 OverridePlayerLevelEngramPoints=8 OverridePlayerLevelEngramPoints=12 OverridePlayerLevelEngramPoints=12 OverridePlayerLevelEngramPoints=12 Each line ties directly to a level, and in order. So, the first line is the number of engram points you gain at Level 0 in your level code block, and so on. Your engram points code block should match your level code block in terms of numbers: If you have 198 levels written into your code block, you will need 198 lines in your engram points block if you want each level to come with engram points. Resources The following are some of the things I found useful when setting up my server's progression scheme: Ark's vanilla level scheme from the Wiki Code Generator Tool Note that the level scheme is out of date, so you will need to adjust if you intend to use the vanilla progression scheme up through any particular level Also note that, the site has other tools for custom settings aside from levels and engram points Server Configuration Specifics from the Wiki More to follow...

Alliance System Is Currently BROKEN - Please Address The current alliance system is broken. Example Tribe A creates a alliance then invites Tribe B Tribe A is registered as using 1 alliance slot but Tribe B is not registered as using any alliance slot. This post a issue when you are hosting a Nitrado non-dedi server. I want 1 max alliance per tribe but the way the system is currently designed both Tribe A and B can have 2 alliances there are no ways to make it 1 Max alliance per tribe. The system should have been coded so if Tribe A and Tribe B both agree to alliance this is counted as 1 alliance on both sides. Currently the tribe doing the inviting is register as 1 alliance slot used the tribe accepting still has their alliance slot left. At the moment there are no ways to make it so I can have MaxAlliancesPerTribe=1 MaxTribesPerAlliance=2 I want each tribe to only have 1 alliance and max tribe per alliance to be 2, meaning both tribes make a max of 2 tribes per alliance. This is not currently possible. I don't understand how such a flaw got overlooked. This can't be intentionally and if it is it is very BROKEN. If I set MaxAlliancesPerTribe=1 MaxTribesPerAlliance=2 It doesn't work. Both has to be set to 2 but once set to MaxAlliancesPerTribe=2 MaxTribesPerAlliance=2 we run into the current issues we are facing. I have a 6 cluster operation going on with 4 man tribes but the alliance system is not working the way I want it too. I am currently not able to get a 1 alliance per tribe system going.
