So my tribe was underwater and all of us crashed multiple times, myself about 30 plus times. I lost all my ascendant stuff, my wolf, my therizinosaur, and my raptor. What do I need to do to get my stuff back? I am italy925 on the unofficial server toast district in tribe venom and also I was getting attacked by 4 eels during the time of the crashing also

So I’ve been playing for a month and I can say I’m quite satisfied with the game. Of course an early gamer is gonna say this but this time it confused me. I died and I can’t find my body. Ooof. Yes I know there are lots of forums on this but this scenario is quite... weird. I live across the river up northeast on “The island” and I decide to take my nice well leveled trikes on a stroll up the mountains northeast. I look around... so far so good. I see raptors, stegos, argents. The usual. Until I, stupid enough, get off my trike and get splattered by an alpha raptor. I die of course but the last thing I see is all of my trikes just goin at it on that raptor. I knew there were gonna be more. I did try going to my body, but I believe the second or third time my game crashed right when I was on the mountain side I died on. Not high but not low. What was weird is when I returned I had lost my Dinos completely and the beam that shows my death point. They were just gone. I go back several times until I gave up. I looked on my log and it didn’t say my trikes died. I am playing single player. I’ve heard of this happening before but never both my Dino’s disappearing and game crashing on the mountains. So I pretty much know im gonna have to restart. All I’m asking is for an explanation or knowledge about this bug and maybe a way to find my Dino’s. Thanks a billion!

After the resent ark update i have been having issues with extinction. Much like Ragnarok it have been closing my game completely. It will go to a black screen and then kick me out to my X Box home screen. The graphics will flicker from muddy to detailed rapidly just before it does this as well. I have not played on Ragnarok since i was kicked off the second time because I lost about 30 mins of play time. Making a base and taming a lvl 135 raptor that I had to chase down in the process. If this can't be fixed it looks like I won't be playing on Extinction either. Which would be a shame. I was planning on breeding a few fart drakes to see what color mutations I could get.

I've been experiencing constant crashing for the last week and a half while playing Ark. I am unable to close the program whatsoever as the program locks my mouse, and then goes unresponsive, thus forcing me to restart my computer. I have tried setting run parameters to -USEALLAVAILABLECORES -sm4 -d3d10 -nomansky and still experience crashing. I have uninstalled and reinstalled multiple times. I have verified integrity of files after each and every crash. I have run on Extremely Low Memory mode and still experience crashing. The game is up to date. My graphics driver is up to date. My system passed the Can You Run It test as well, and nobody in the steam community is able to help me out since nobody's really got any ideas. I've sent a help ticket as well, but I figured I'd also see if the community here has any ideas while I'm at it. Attached is my DxDiag report for those interested! DxDiag1.txt Looking forward to receiving help with this issue, as I greatly enjoy this game and the DLCs I have purchased for it.

After updating my iphone 5s to IOS 12.1.2 the game do not load and crash everytime I select the "play single player" or the "new game" button

hi I've been dealing with some bad bugs for a wile on single player and single player split screen. mostly wile split screen I've been having random crashes on extinction setting my progress back 30 min to a hour, anything could trigger the crash too not just one thing. one time my friend and i were just standing there waiting for stuff to prosses in the mortar and pestle when a crash happened, after one of these crashes i tried reloading the game and the menu bugged out bad I've attacked related files. but during single player and split screen I've been having one bug killing me on all maps. wile i'm walking or running around as a player i get stuck floating on rocks, terrain shifts, and foundations, and I've be left floating fro minimal of 10 seconds but I've seen my friend on split screen be stuck for up to 2 minutes and the only thing we found that woks for getting unstuck is 3 things, 1) mount a Dino, 2) climber picks to another surface, 3) get picked up by a Dino that can grab you

Can i get my stuff back from dcing Entering Rockwell Proof is at Mixer.com/Im_x_Bullet

Even after the new update that took nearly 2 hours to download on all maps. My single player game still crashes every 10 minutes for unknown reasons. I'll be traveling across the map. Reset. I'll he crafting in my base. Reset. Sometimes I walk away from the game and come back to find it...RESET. So even when nothing is going on, the game is crashing. It reverts the save file back 2-5 minutes every time making it actually quite agonizing to play this game. Extremely disappointing because this game has such promise but it's literally driving me insane thinking that I can play for longer than 15 minutes without losing anything I've done...

I have had nothing but a pain trying to get anything UWP to stay open on a VM (Using KVM, that's a kernalized virtual machine, not Keyboard Video and Mouse). I believe I have finally resolved the issue and I wanted to share how I got the server to stay up without crashing so far. Maybe these things will be helpful to you as well. I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY NEGATIVE EFFECTS ON YOUR SYSTEM. YOU SHOULD NEVER MAKE SYSTEM CHANGES WITHOUT A COMPLETE SYSTEM BACK UP FIRST You MUST turn on Windows Firewall for the TOLEDO service to communicate correctly. There is no exception for this. ABSOLUTELY make sure you SERVER CONNECTIVITY says CONNECTED. Anything else and people won't be able to connectt You can find this under the XBOX APP > PROFILE > SETTINGS > NETWORK. If you have a different message other than "Server connectivity: Connected" there should be a Microsoft link you can follow to show important information that worked for me. Here are all the ports I had to open on my firewall, these get forwarded directly to the ARK WIN10 SERVER Ip address. Notice some are for ARK and some are for XBOX LIVE IF YOU EXPERIENCE CRASHING, check the event viewer. UWP (WIN10) APPS (that go through the microsoft store) have a HUGE problem in that they crash or BSOD without much information. I spent HOURS of research and techniques to try and resolve this and I believe I finally have the fix. ... If the event viewer shows the following, this is where there are thousands of pages for 2+ years of people complaining about any UWP game and Microsoft has done near NOTHING to fix it. ... The issue above will have you driving to the mad house because it's 1) a BETA product in production and 2) not very useful. The 3 most common things to resolve this issue are listed below 1 ... Make sure you are signing into the computer with your XBOX LIVE Silver/Gold account (if on a family account, sign in with a family member if that's what you are using to host the ARK SERVER) 2 ... (before doing this make sure you back up your registry, if you don't know how you probably shouldn't make this change) Remove all entries EXCEPT for Microsoft Software Shadow Copy Provider 1.0 in COMPUTER/HLMK/SYSTEM/CURRENTCONTROLSET/SERVICES/VSS/PROVIDERS and then restart the computer (a MUST) Above is a picture of my "cleaned" registry entry 3... (This is the one that worked for me) TURN OFF PAGE FILES. Since I am using a virtual machine vRAM and vDISK aren't real (the v stands for virtual). However WIN10 doesn't know the difference. Part of the job of EseDiskFlushConsistency is to move pagefile.sys to your actual RAM. START > RUN > sysdm.cpl > Advanced > performance settings > advanced > virtual memory > change > select "No Paging File" > restart computer NOTE IF YOU HAVE A BAD RAM MODULE, the problem may still occur. 4... If you are STILL having crashes associated with EseDiskFlushConsistency I recommend turning off indexing / windows search (the following services) START >RUN > services.msc > Windows Search (set to disabled and stop the service) and same for Superfetch service 5... And if all else fails, open THIS PC > Right click on the drive where ARK is installed (C: in my case) and turn off "Allow files on this drive to have contents indexed in addition to file properties" (this will take a long time to apply depending on the size of your drive

CRASHING!!!! Obelisks and supply drops After update on my dedi. Anytime me or anyone clicks on any colour drop at any location as well as all of the obelisks. So now we cant do boss battles. Tek gear is even more impossible to obtain without commands and no one is able to go drop hunting... come on WC. We need updates that don't crash an entire server... Been part of the ark realm since day one on xbox and got a second xbox about 45 days later and been hosting many servers with it. This is one of the worst updates for crashing i have had to deal with. Pleeeeaase heeeelp!!!

So i play on single player and I had the primal pass and I have 43 Dino’s I tamed and my primal pass expired when I just got back and went on my world so I heard my Dino’s dieing and my game crashed and I’ve been trying to get back in but it crashes all the time only for single player just got primal pass again still crashes I did a lot on that world and I spent forever building and farming for like 2 months and I just got a scale 3 dodo i made other worlds they open and close and open but this world I click on it and it crashes and ark goes off and then I click on the app and it starts like it normally would and I click on the world again crashes I’m really mad cuz I lost about 100$ in stuff on that world like amber and I lost a lot of time taking breeding building farming and it’s all gone in a second bullpoop the normal amount of Dino’s your allowed to have is 40 but primal pass gives you 60 so please help I spent about 100$ in amber on that world

Hello I have been running a dedicated server on my PC, and playing on my Xbox with several friends Earlier this week I decided to give prim+ a try, and started a new server. After two days of building, I was roaming around the beaver river and started heading towards the glacier and my server crashed. Note, my Xbox timed out, and it took me a minute to realize the game crashed on my PC, I did not crash to the desktop on Xbox. Every time I run to the same place, it does the same thing. It's like I can't get near a specific part of the map. Anybody have any idea? Game runs very smooth otherwise. Thanks in advance

Hi I recently entered a code and sent it to my single player, but it crashed right after I tried to enter my single player game & I ended up receiving nothing. Is it a bug? Did I not receive anything because of the crash? This is so disappointing tbh..

Since the last month or so around the launch of winter wonderland the game crashes every 20 or 30 minutes in singleplayer/non dedicated extinction. It makes you save manually every 5 minutes if you want to keep your progress. Very frustrating to try and play you lose progress to it all the time. The event is over now and the bug still lives on but please just put out a hotfix already because its borderline unplayable.

I have been getting a lot of ark crashes and PC crashes ever since I got my new GPU (Asus RX 580 8GB dual). I currently don't know what i can do to fix it. Help would be greatly appreciated.

The latest State of the game update says only the Ps4 Prim + is crashing. That is incorrect Xbox is still in the same state as it was after the DLC.. If you hit an Argentavis it crashes the server. It has been almost 3 weeks now. It's a lot easier to be patient if you guys give us some information. We know its not working... Thanks

Wow!!! Another 7 Gb on my machine and the game doesn't work. I actually believed you guys for a moment... I invested in buying another Xbox X to run a dedicated server. Set me back 500 bucks but I thought it was well worth it to provide a fun place for people to come play. We had one of the most popular servers on prim plus. Since your broken update we have slowly watched all of those people go. I mean who wants to invest time playing a broken game? I have literally done everything I can do to keep the server up and keep our community going. Sometimes that meant literally restarting the server 20 times a day. We even did our own troubleshooting to identify what were the issues and how we could avoid them... It is too bad your company does not have the dedication or care for the community like myself and others who run their own server. #Takers

Anyone know how to fix the constant crashing of ragnarok????

My game is disconnecting and crashing more than ever now and everytime I open chat to type the game either freezes for 10 secs to a couple minutes before the keyboard pops up or it crashes the game completely.

So where was the disclaimer that said the game was going to stop working at some point in the future after buying it? Pretty deceptive if you ask me... Forget Bethesda being investigated you guys need to be. Can I get my money back?

Not sure if this has been answered as of yet. But it since the latest round of updates player single player has becomes impossible. Game keeps crashing on the island, I have 4 trapped dinos every time I got get them the game crashes I die, and my Dino is left, gave up on the island. Moved over to the center all was well, till I died. Thought fair enough, so went back to get my arg and guess what the game crashed. Now every time I get near there the games goes, thought I’d bring over some dinos from the island to the center and when the game crashed so they disappeare. So have 3 lost dinos and 6 dinos acrossed 2 maps that I can’t get to. Keep reporting via ps4 but nothing changes. Someone help. Before I give up on the game.

Is this a known thing? Since the griffin update everytime I open an inventory or a stat screen my game crashes. It’s getting really inconvient - is there something I can do to fix this? Please help!!!

Ever since the latest update, I have experienced 6 random crashes in the span of 2 days on the windows 10 version of Ark, I updated my GPU drivers and took out the recently defective rechargeable battery on my XB1 controller which I believed was making my PC's power supply malfunction and cause the game to freeze, neither of which helped my case. I never experienced this many freezes in a short span before the most recent update to the windows 10 version, anybody else experiencing this issue on the windows 10 version? I have been cross playing alongside a friend using his xbox one x and he hasn't experienced any game freezes.

My bf and I have been playing on a few maps through both single player and non-dedicated server. We've been using cheats to help us build otherwise we would get nothing done. We have saved games on the island, the center, and Ragnarok. However, starting about 3 days ago while we've been strictly on the ragnarok map, about every hour the game crashes without warning and saves no progress. I cant help but think its the cheats we may be using, but it hasnt done this on any other map we've played on. Its getting pretty tiring having to constantly build the same thing over and over again. Tried the cheat saveworld, said it saved, but crashed right afterwards. Logged back in and still nothing was saved. Any ideas??? Do we need to delete saved files? Play on a single server??

I was taming an argy near Carno island, on the main island, near where iguana gaming tamed her allosaurus. And I left, saved the game, made a new save file, and when I came back it crashed over and over again essentially a loop, I waited till the next day and it still wouldn't let me back into my single player game, after a month I am still unable to play on my single player map. I have lowered graphics, turned on airplane mode, offloaded the app, alas nothing has let me enter the game. play on the iPad Air 2.
