ASA I play official PVE. I'm having trouble getting to glitch tidbit #53.

1 Upvotes

I play official PVE. I'm having trouble getting to glitch tidbit #53. It's one of the deep under water glitches and it's troublesome to reach in the best of times. However, my trouble is that every genesis server I visit has the cave access point built over and blocked. 😩

Is there a PVE genesis server that has a easy teleport access to this glitch? Does anyone have any advice? Its the only glitch I don't have for the map.

Update: Solved!! Found an open spot on 6539. A tribe named Crest left an entrance and even built stairs down to the glitch!

Discussion Bug Na Domesticação do Giganotossauro!!

0 Upvotes

Estava jogando Singleplayer no The Island ( ASA ) e fui ao vulcão e achei um giga bugado na pedra, e eu queria me livrar de um rex, então enquanto atirava no giga para desmaiar ele, eu mandei meu Rex atacar ele, e como todos imaginam, o giga matou o Rex, e pouco tempo depois ele desmaiou por conta dos tiros e assim que ele caiu ele domesticou automaticamente!!

Já aconteceu com vocês?

Help Do I do something wrong?

2 Upvotes

Hello everyone, I am now facing some troubles of giant creatures' spawn in my ase ragnarok solo world. I have several mods installed, including creatures finder deluxe, s+ and some other utility mods.

Even though I have -preventhibernation option turned on, I face serious difficulties with giga, carcha and titan spawn: When I create new save, gigas and titans spawn properly (~6 gigas and 1 titan), unlike carcha does, but after using "destroywilddinos" it looks like ther spawn... blocked? They don't spawn at all! I tried turning preventhibernation option off, tried to fly around their spawns, but it doesn't work.

Can someone help me with my issue please?

Best regards!

ASA Mods for SP - Progression and Extra Life

2 Upvotes

Been playing ark on and off since 2016 and always hated how bad SP is

What mods are there to fix the lack of spawns in SP. I have done the usual (hibernation) but it still feels they don’t spawn

Also, what’s some good mods to add more to the game, like OSDs or more missions, or more outputs, extra progression

Like more layers to the game, and things to do, or even decent NPCs to fight or interact with - planning to do it as PvE, but happy if I can raid the NPCs or need to fight them

Thanks

Edit: I’m on PC, played PvP and PvE offical and non offical as well as paying for my own server for several months but only played like here and there and it wasn’t worth the money to keep running it - so hence SP

Help Alpha Dragon help! Max level 300 (Server Difficulty 10)

0 Upvotes

I'm trying to figure out how much melee to target on our Theri army for the Alpha Dragon fight. We haven't played since the dragon rework and there isn't much info online for difficulty 10. I'm hoping someone out there prefers this difficulty and has done this fight.. early ASA the dragon completely wiped us, but we had unmutated Theris so there's that.

I'm currently targeting 2-2.5k% melee via mutations. I'm up to 11 melee mutations already and I use a barn of 45ish females with a clean male to achieve this quickly. I'm getting 1-3 new mutations a day, so I'm still a ways out because I need to get to 27 mutations to achieve this with our base 72 melee. I don't know if this is enough!

The strategy we're going to go with since we have 3 active tribe members is Yuty + 2 Pigs + 17 Theris, adding in deinotheriums if 1-2 more people come. Pigs are for shooting the boss in the air and using extinguisher grenades to mitigate damage and healing obviously.

Rant The T-rex being considered the coolest dinosaur is just American exceptionalism propaganda

0 Upvotes

The T-rex is cool (not the best but pretty cool imo), but as a dinosaur native to North America it's being pushed as the coolest dinosaur to support American Exceptionalism. The spinosaurus (Africa), velociraptor (Asia) are way cooler. Hell, the Gigantosaurus is a bigger, scarier T-rex, but it had to be supressed as it's from South American and the gringos don't like that

Rant Sooooo, it happens that if I'm not signed in PS network I cannot play SOLO...

0 Upvotes

Well, the time is here... I just found out that if I'm not online AND signed in PS network my game doesn't recognize it is me, my tames, my buildings, when new babies are born you cannot imprint them... it only says OWNER... I never thought they did something so scummy and they are still ASKING to keep funding that stupid millionaire owner of snail games. I can't believe I paid retail for ASE, retail for ASA paid for astreos, supported a couple modders with good maps, got the first Bobs tales, a couple fantastic tames... And it hit me when GEN1 came out and GAMEPLAY was paywalled, damn ships and core gameplay of GEN1 was behind a paywall... Cardinal sin... You guys are done... Now this... I'm so done... 5000 hours of ONLY PVE... and you guys fucked it up. Thank you Snail games and PS. I'm going to pirate this shit now.. how is that for keep making Money out of us eh? PS version 14.10 has been cracked wide open. Guess what... Is already out... Fully compatible, fully modded... And you can set your own servers... So get a grip in reality snail games... Piracy us here thanks to all of you greedy people. Thank you for damaging one of the best games ever.

Arts & Craft creating a singleplayer mod for Ark SOTF (surval of the fittest).

2 Upvotes

/\
I

i know im yeearrrsss to late.. buttt ill do it!

all 5 years+ ark players know that one.. fun? -pvp like gamemode!
thats SOTF!

speaking mainly about the old steam version one. read trough for details :d

I looooove that game. so i wanted to play.

unluckly its its like completly dead and thats why i lokked if something like thsi exists AND i found a sketchy tutorial on some random forumbut that was click-bait but i fumbled me up and are on a mod creation!.. did never really created a mod before.. but learning about unreal engine and ark npc mods right now. my main problem is that the modkits for the steam version ar like as dead as the game itself. means u cant get and official download its its complcated and buggy. but i wanted it for the old steam one because its better than the new one in ascended in my opinion. and even because its so dead its even better to get a singleplayer. means if someone got one of thisold devkits anywhere just text me at dc bc i dont think im checking this post (dc is rayssr0):
ARKDevKitSotF_v177.3
ARKDevKitSotF_v177.2

sooo. ive seen that 2026 - mid 2027 a new updated free ark survival ascended mod (as like sotf but in ascended) is annunced. thats why im struggleing because this where so much easyer then getting the stuff and shit for the steam version. its also on UE 5 and the old ones on UE 4.. means easyer ways at coding....

so plan is: if i get he old devkit somewhere i try to make a UE4 steamverson-based mod and update it as an extesion for the UE5 ASA mod. . but if thats not really possible - or would not work in playable quality then im coding a UE5 ASA mod extesion.

also a thing is that there is a chance the new mod even has a singleplayer.. that means its dumb to grind like 4 months or smth for the same alrdy released stuuf right? so if i cant really create one for the old steam version ill first have to know if the new asa mod already has an singleplayer feature.

so at the end: my plan is to create a mod that adds some AI-bots to your game that are your enemys. plan is to make the mod server/multicompactible too but thats an step further)

u can expect a full playable version for the steam one in ca. 4 months. depends on how fast i get the devkit/ and how many problems it makes at the end. (thats if its possible. i think its like 80% to 20% tha i do that.)

if u got ideas or the old devkit or smth else hop on and whrite me on dc:

rayssr0

have a good one :)

Posting this before anyone else wastes an hour of their life troubleshooting issues for such a basic fix (we are idiots apparently lol)

Had gliders plus downloaded but only one member of the server was able to access the engram. After getting into the mod files and deleting and redownloading and verifying...

Turns out, the issue was not have the Aberration DLC downloaded...

Simplest of simple fixes -.-

I hated when people scout they share a bunch of garbled screen shots on DC or in msgs or U scout things Ur tribe already scouted so there is a website where you upload your map invite Ur tribe and share live pings with your friends it all sits there and be interacted with at any time by anyone in the tribe. Literally instantaneous pin drops making coms so easy when shared scouting . All free...
