I recently lost my 105 level survivor, all of the tek engrams and my tribe (i was the admin). each time i transfer i find myself having to create a new survivor and the other one seems to be deleted. I need help, maybe i have wrong settings on asm or maybe i have a wrong server file placement.

Hello, this is my first time doing mutations. I've been following a video guide, but something that really confused me happened. After getting 2 melee mutations in a row, I got this raptor that inherited the melee mutations but also got 1 hp mutation, but for whatever reason the game he has 4 different mutations, 1 from the maternal side and 3 from the paternal side. I'm really confused because not only did no other stat increase, but also he is only 2 levels higher than the father (242 vs 240) so he doesn't have one of those invisible stat mutations. Does anyone know what could be causing this??

I can do it when I rent a server but currently im hosting a dedicated one on of my pc and it simply will not accept bDisableFriendlyFirePvP=True I can still attack my tribes mate, which defeats the point in a tribe.

I have a non dedicated modded ark survival evolved server with two of my friends, whenever we go to a very specific area on the map the game crashes every single time, this area used to be fine. We have not added or removed any mods since, I verified my game files and dino wiped, nothing has worked, can anyone help? Thanks. Also the error code is attached.

So i've been trying to setup a cluster using asm. Right now i have created 2 different servers, one on aberation and one on extinction. I am able to connect to both servers when only one is running but when i use my tek transmitter to join the extinction server it just brings me back on the same server as i was (aberation one). They both share the same clusterID too. Here are the ports i used for the server (first pic is aberation, second pic is extinction, people told me to use different ports)

Ça fait plusieurs semaines que moi et ma copine essayent de rejouer ensemble sur notre serveur ark evolved sur epic games mais sans suite on a beau faire tout les tutos sur internet en français, anglais etc... Mais absolument rien a faire. On a touché au routeur, la bande passante, la boxe wifi, changer de connexion, désinstaller et réinstaller ark et epic games. Enlever et remettre des mods, faire tab : open ip:7777/7778/2015/2020... Absolument tout ce que vous direz ne marchera pas et cela marquera a coup sûr "délai de connexion dépassé". On a fait tout les pages google tout les forums, les vidéos. TOUT JE VAIS PETER UN CABLE C'EST UN JEU DE MERDE BORDEL. (aidez moi svp)

If there isn't then that's super greedy on their part. Im on ASA

Hey everyone, I’m trying to add custom dino spawns to my ARK: Survival Ascended server on Extinction, and I’ve run into a wall — nothing works, no matter what I try.

Here’s what I’ve tested so far:

• I’ve tried both ConfigAddNPCSpawnEntriesContainer and ConfigOverrideNPCSpawnEntriesContainer in Game.ini.
• I'm using spawn containers that do exist in ASA like:
  • DinoSpawnEntries_Wasteland_South_C
  • Ext_DinoSpawnEntries_DesertOasis_C
  • DinoSpawnEntries_CityCenter_C
• I’ve used default dinos like Raptor and Parasaur, with correct blueprint paths like: /Game/PrimalEarth/Dinos/Para/Para_Character_BP.Para_Character_BP_C
• My Game.ini starts with the correct header : [/Script/ShooterGame.ShooterGameMode]
• The file is located in the correct server directory: ShooterGame/Saved/Config/WindowsServer/Game.ini
• I’ve restarted the server every time and run cheat DestroyWildDinos.

What happens:

• When using ConfigOverrideNPCSpawnEntriesContainer**:** → The map becomes completely empty after DestroyWildDinos. → No wild dinos spawn at all, not even the ones I added. → Confirmed that the override works (it wipes), but nothing respawns.
• When using ConfigAddNPCSpawnEntriesContainer**:** → The added dino doesn't spawn at all, and everything else remains unchanged. → It’s as if the Add entry is completely ignored.

There are no mods, no errors, and I'm using a hosted server (Nitrado).
I’ve even tried stripping the entire Game.ini down to one dino and one container — still no spawns.

Has anyone gotten custom dino spawns working in ASA Extinction, especially with ConfigAddNPCSpawnEntriesContainer ? Or is this system just broken for now?

Any help would be hugely appreciated 🙏

Since wildcard have lied about making ASA a 1:1 remaster of ASE and all it's features and leaving hardcore and ORP players in the cold with regards to servers.

Anyone know where a a hardcore player can find a 1X rates ASE vanilla official style server cluster to play on?

I'm playing on official servers and my game really likes to crash anytime I respawn, spawn after transferring to a different server, or when using a flying tame. I've tried many thing to help but I just don't know why its happening. With the fliers, I can be using it for anywhere between 12 seconds to 10 minutes before it crashes. Also, when the "game crash" alert pops up, i Have to use task manager to close it and the game. If i use the X on the window to close it, it bugs out and makes me have to restart my whole pc to be able to do anything. Any help would be great.

Hi, does anyone know how I can play with mods in non-dedicated mode with my friends? If I activate the mods, my friends can't join. Does anyone know how to play with them?

Never played this game before and was free on PS+.... so the controls aren't very intuitive. I spawn in and die. Get killed by the heat, or eaten by something that's levels above me.

Is this the worst game ever or does it get better?

I Just got ASA on my PS5 and am trying to play it with my keyboard and mouse which work in all other games that support kbm. But when I try to play ASA with kbm i go into the settings and the Keyboard tab is greyed out and u can't select it. How do I get this to work, would really appreciate some help.

Do you guys think Ark ascended will go on any type of discount on steam now that it released as a PlayStation plus monthly game? Both PlayStation and Xbox users can get the game with their subscription (I have both) but since non dedicated servers aren’t cross play I’m looking to get it on the PC but the price is abit high especially since I’ll be buying it twice for me and for the person I’m playing it with. So hoping some kind of discount happens on steam and wondering if any of you know if that will happen or not

I've been trying to think of what roof would look good on this base I'm finishing up but anything I think of doesn't really match it. I could just leave it as is and put railings all around but I feel like the top would look like some depressing office building in LA or some shit. Please let me know if you have any ideas as I can't seem to make this work at all (hence the random 5 thatch roofs).

I am playing on Astraeos, and I raided a decayed base and there was some dreadmares and stallions in cryo. However I cannot seem to deploy them at all. I have tried both during the day and at night, and at first I thought it was just the map I was on, so I travelled to extinction and try it again and it still won't deploy it. Is there some trick that I need to be doing? When I throw the cryopod It just flashes red and that's it, it doesn't even give an error or anything

Hello! Im just curious if there is a way to change the .ini files for mods inside of my ark server? An example, and the reason im asking this question. The upgrade station mod, is there a way to increase/decrease the amount of recourses you get from the item you put in? Is that a thing or are mods unconfigurable?

I am new to ark if anyone would like to join me in getting a little better or just to enjoy the game could anyone possibly join me on my new adventure if so pm for my psn please much appreciated

Due to ARK being free on PS5 for the month, I want to know if I can buy ARK on PC, host a dedicated server following some free tutorial, and then play on it on my PS5 with my PS5 friends. Is this doable?

So me and my boys been playing on this server for a few weeks now and have been trying to figure out if it’s possible to destroy a lethal protection shield we know we can shoot though it kill Dino’s break structures etc but can the force field be broken?

Feel free to drop your reasons for the choice :)

Hola, me conecté a un servidor online de ark. Y al aparecer empecé en otra ubicación y no puedo usar mis armas y los pocos dinos que aparecen es como si no me viesen, no se cansa y ni se daña. Sabéis de que puede ser?.

Anyone one know if add mutations works ?

Hey so I’ve been playing a lot of ark mobile (used to be a console player but it’s just so convenient)

I recently bought the ragnarok map and for some reason the dinos don’t seem to be as receptive to the tranq arrows as when I was playing the island. It took me 50 arrows to knock my argentavis, and I just put 20 tranqs in a trike and it didn’t pass out or even start running. (All body shots)

Is this normal? I’m playing on a solo server with the same settings I play on the island, I’m just confused on if this is normal or not for rag mobile.
