Looking for tribe Just started back on ark yesterday to be grieved after day one haha. But solo looking for a tribe to play with after being away from ark for almost two years! Discord: DMaturin #2882

Bring Full S+ features for Private Servers I'd like to start by saying this topic has most likely been brought up, but I looked through the first five pages of most voted, no where to be seen, so this is an attempt to rekindle the topic So let's be honest when S+ was announced to be an official mod, the outcome was extremely underwhelming, we only received a fraction of what the mod has to offer, I understand it's meant to keep Official Servers balanced, but that doesn't mean Wildcard can't give us the full mod for Private servers When I heard S+ is going to be an official mod, I imagined making bases with the stackable foundations, or placing Vacuum Compartments out of water and in the irradiated zone, snapable crop plots, making my base float up in the sky, different sized pillars and walls, and countless other features that didn't make the cut (((((PLEASE VOTE GRAB THE ATTENTION OF WILDCARD TO SHOW YOU WANT THIS TO HAPPEN, VOTE ON OTHER POSTS YOU AGREE WITH THE TOPIC, WILDCARD MAY ACTUALLY DO IT THEN!)))))

Mod Mismatch despite empty mod folders Having a very strange issue with my friend joining an unofficial server. I've been using this server for a week or so and have had no issues.When he tries to join, he gets a mod mismatch.So I had him "unsubscribe all", then delete all his mod files from "ShooterGame/Content/Mods" and also from "workshop/content/346110". These locations were found by right clicking on Ark and doing "Local Files, Browse Local Files" in the steam client.Then had him reboot his PC to be sure.He tried to log on and got the same error "Mod Mismatch". He checked both those two folders and they were both still empty. Steam had not attempted to download any mods at all as far as we could see, yet he was still getting the error.I had him run a verify as well, and this found no errors, and both those mod folders were still empty. Another attempt at connection failed again.Has anyone ever seen anything like this before? Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

HLN-A Not Appearing on Microsoft Version. Hey as the title suggests i bought season pass on windows store [desktop it says, It is on pc] and i have not gotten the companion. i have died to refresh the skins that appear in my inventory. i dunno what else to try so figured id post it here. I am on a friends server he rents, so its not official hmm..what other info...i dunno, if you need more info feel free to ask. Thanks for reading

When you die only you can see the green light of your dead body. Sometimes if you crash when get back to the game you are dead and can’t find that green light of your body. Would be awesome if a tribemate could see it too to find it faster (even a different color so they know it ain’t their dead body incase both players died).

Add PvX to other platforms(PS4) I find the concept of 2 aspects of the game mixed together to bring out the best of two worlds. PvP is constant commitment, with rads being constant. PvE for me is too peaceful but PvP is to aggressive. I just think it would be pretty nice to have this option

Running the command to spawn the northern lights permanently breaks the lights https://ark.gamepedia.com/Console_Commands#CE When Valguero first came out the auroras surprised everyone on my server. I decided to try to brighten people's spirits one night so I ran the cheat ce TestNorthernLights command. This was before there was a wiki entry stating that the auroras will cease to appear after running this command. Several weeks have passed since I ran this command, and despite restarts, the auroras have never spawned again. Trappel from the Valguero discord has confirmed this is an issue but says it's out of their hands. Please fix this Wildcard.

Being able to sleep through storms or night. It would be nice to be able to skip night time without commands and maybe sleep through storms but only for single player cause i don't even know how it would work for servers

I've set up a server to host my friends on Win10 PC, friends on xbox. Yes, it is the windows store version, crossplay compatible, I've tried with and without passwords, and it never lets my friends join. Trying to start on Abberation. One of my friends played in my basement and was able to join, but a few others were not. Any ideas? I've looked over the setting and can't figure out how to move forward, and it is very frustrating to be stuck on something that should be working fine.

I bought my Ark on Microsoft Store and I always hosted a dedicated server on PC for me and my friends to play o Xbox One, but, I can't do it anymore because I always receive "Join Failed" message, I already check my NAT and stuff... I saw a similar topic on Xbox Official Forum but nobody answered... I tried everything but nobody can join on the server. My friends tried to host too but nobody can join. When the messages "Join Failed" doesn't, we are disconnected in the PrimalData_BP load. Why? I'm tired to try to play Ark, there are many issues. Has anyone had this issue?

Support this suggestion so that they see that we want equality with pc players. The console game is broken, boring, abandoned, we do not have mods and the officers are already outdated.

Cross Platform Play Can someone Host from a PC And play on that server with your ps4? If so how, how much etc.

Cross Ark Servers Hello, I own ark on my Xbox 1 and I have a friend who is wanting to get ark, but he plays pc. He has a windows 10 and I read somewhere that there is a cross play function. Something about buying it through the windows store instead of Steam? Isn’t there like a special cross-ark cluster. He was wondering what the downsides for him are also. Like if he can get mods and play on official PC servers. Thanks in advance for the help.

Gaming Veteran Introducing myself Hey everyone, 31-year gaming veteran... technically I haven't quit gaming by a longshot. Started out playing games since I was about 12 on console, moved to PC when I was about 20. I've played most anything from console single player, MMORPGs, Strategy, Sandbox and more. Ark has been my focus though for oh, approx. 4,600+ hours of my life. No regrets Now I admin and run a server, but I promise I won't plug in the info here. o/ Nice to meet you!

PC to Xbox Dedicated Server Host Hello, can anyone assist me in understanding why i cannot find my dedicated server? I have the game downloaded on both my xbox and PC (from microsoft store) and decided to host a dedicated server on my PC while i played it on Xbox. However after setting up the server setting and hitting the "host dedicated server", letting it load up on my pc i cannot seem to find the server listed under any of the filters on my xbox.

Expanding Server Settings: Engrams Hello Everyone, I have posted this suggestion in the past as a link to others that it may work well with, and attempted to post it as one point as its own suggestion, but it was somehow linked under another. It was similar to the first, but goes into different details and has a few steps added that the one it was added to did not. The idea behind it, is to somehow be able to incorporate different mod engram sets without breaking the official-core gameplay. Essentially, opening up customization for unofficial, dedicated, and single player games/servers while allowing those who play on official servers the ability to continue doing so. First Part; Adding/Expanding the Engram Menu to all server setup varieties. Second Part: Adding Engram Selection Check Boxes. The idea is to make it so that when you open the engram menu or tab, you are give a few options as to which engrams you are going to allow access to your server/game. Those which are not selected would remain hidden. Examples: On a new Tab or Menu: (1) Select the starting engram set(s): The first set would be to choose which engram set you wish to build on, either official or primitive engrams. Both could be selected if the host wished, but the minimum would be one or the other. I arranged it this way so that those that wished to play as either one or the other could do so. This way both parties can remain pure to their style of gameplay if they wish. Official Gameplay Engrams Primitive Plus Gameplay Engrams (2) Select the add on engram set(s): Of those below, we have parts of one, but the rest is currently only available through PC mods. In the case of this suggestion, they are simply being used as an example as to how it would read. If used, those in this portion of the page would be optional. They could select all, a few, or none at all. Also, the engram sets listed could be added to or removed from as new mods approved for console use are added to the game. If this list were to grow, a limiter may be applied as to how many engrams can be used in game or how many sets could be selected. S+ Mod Engrams Automated Ark Mod Engrams Advanced Architecture Mod Engrams Armored Storage Stands Castle, Keeps, and Forts Medieval Architecture (3) Remove the following engram set(s): This is yet another example set. None are in game as of yet. It would simply add an additional function to help clean up the engrams previously listed. For example, for those that have their games set up where creatures cannot be ridden, hiding all the saddle engrams would clean up their engram screens. Hide all Saddle Engrams Hide all Tek Engrams Hide all Metal Structure Engrams (4) Removed Selected Engrams: Each individual engram from the sets selected for (1) and (2) above would show and could be checked on or off as preferred by the host.This would allow the host to remove engrams individually from the engram sets selected. For example, if they wanted S+ engrams, but didn't want the nanny to be able to be used in game, they could then hide it at this point so it would not show as an engram one could learn Reworking the menu to resemble this setup would be easy to navigate, easy to add new mod engrams sets - without breaking official gameplay as they are all optional - and give the unofficial, dedicated, and single players a way to experience the mods without a full course mod menu. Now one of the issues that could be seen is the additional resources that many mods add to the game. This could be addressed a few ways; Items used in the mods would have the recipes adjusted to use standard or primitive plus resources. Items used in the mods would be added to the game only if the mod is selected and the engrams therefore activated. As a console player who codes, admins, and plays on an unofficial server, I believe that adding something like this would give those in my situation more opportunity to customize our servers, include additional mods in the future- should ark wish to do so, and allow those who prefer to stay true to either the standard or primitive plus elements of the game to do so. It would also, by including the elements from both game modes, be a way to allow them to update together, but played separately so that if anything breaks the game, it does for both and as such will be fixed for both. It is my hope is that working it as described, all parties will be able to continue to play as they wish and those that wish for more, could have it without breaking the game for someone else. *An additional note to the inclusion of the primitive plus gameplay to the standard code set - I read somewhere that a primitive plus server that had been running for some time at one point had been accidental switched to standard gameplay. In doing so, the only things that were lost to the server were the primitive plus items. So creatures and items that were standard to both types remained. It was switched back, and rolled back and everything returned. Now my purpose of this retelling however, is to point out that it may be possible to change primitive plus servers to standard servers, allowing players to keep their mounts and anything created using standard items. It is not the best scenario where everything is kept, but it does allow players who have been strict primitive plus players to keep a portion of what they have created over the years and would require only the rebuilding or crafting of anything lost. Again - not the best scenario, but perhaps better than loosing everything? The last thing I want to do is have those who have worked for years on what they have to lose everything. And if this helps as all, it may be worth it. Now I am a firm believer that no idea is perfect and can please everyone. And that belief is strong with Ark. We all play different and therefore, see each suggestion and idea differently as well. So if you have an questions, concerns, suggestions, or perspective on this suggestion - please let me know. And for those of you who have taken the time to read over this - it is rather long. Thank you.

No Servers For PC Mac Haven't logged in since last night, but since this afternoon 19/06 (UTC+10), can't see any servers whatsoever. Checked all server types, tried connecting directly to servers through Steam, but all failed. Is it because Mac again does not have the current Ark software during a DLC launch? Come on guys... This is getting old.

Minimum requirement updates? Ok so I got a massive kick in the teeth when I tried to boot up ark on my tower. The game would not launch due to the minimum requirements jumped. I've been all over the net to find the new minimum/recommended hardware but I have not found a consistent list. I've ran several compatibility tests and I should at least meet the minimum and yet the game still won't even launch to the start screen. Can someone please update the minimum/recommended hardware list on here so I can update my machine before August? I'm heading out of the states and I need to make sure this thing is capable of at least playing solo.

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 Server Problems There is only few servers on primitive pus we want more servers for play.

This is a PC Unofficial cluster server. I saw another post in PS4 that is similar to this issue. But they have issues with fast travel and fast travel works fine on the same map. When our players travel to another server using the Tek Transmitter or the Obelisks, they get to the other server, select their bed and get booted out with this error: Network Failure Message Outgoing reliable buffer overflow. We can log in again, but have to select the connection for the server we were traveling into. I saw another post similar from April this year, that said to not use fullscreen. I have tried windows and windowed fullscreen. Both fail. I have tried sleeping bag, bunk bed, thatch bed, and a mod bed. All fail. Here is a list of my mods: http://blam.me/Blam/Mods.aspx This only started after the Aberration updates. Anyone else experiencing this and any ideas? Thanks!
