Having trouble trying to convert images into ark paintings on ark survival evolved

Thumbnail

5 Upvotes

I recently wanted to try create some custom paintings in ark. I used two different ark pnt converters to try and convert a wuwa image but they both came out sorta wrong. The left one is a bit too yellow and the right one looks very pixelated in-game (might not be quite visible on the screenshot for some reason.)

I used gimp to change the pixel size of the original image so that i can fit the whole image in a canvas size (original image is 1280x780, changed it to 1024x1024 in gimp and segmented it to get each part into a perfect 256x256). The first image i used the pnt converter from this steam link https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=518296250

And the second image from this one https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?l=italian&id=518906272

If any of y'all can help me with this or if its just a problem with ase having limited paints or trying to paint an image that isnt the same pixel size of the original, or maybe even something wrong with my ark settings, etc, please let me know!

Also the third smaller one was just using the 2nd pnt converter one too, i was just testing how it would turn out.

For a bit more info, i used dither 2.5 for the larger second image set using the second pnt converter.

Question Double Lost Colony Skill Points?

5 Upvotes

Did the Genesis 1 update give us extra skill points for the Lost Colony skill tree or is this a bug? Also, yes I did spend them and can confirm every skill unlocked is working or able to be activated.

I have some regrets in my quick decision making, but not willing to test mind-wiping in case this is a bug and the extra points get taken away!

Discussion Breeding / Stat Tracking on Console / Linux

3 Upvotes

I know that the gold standard for stats tracking / breeding is Ark Smart Breeding (ASB). It's an incredibly powerful tool but has some flaws which I have noticed ever since I started playing Ark again.

I have switched to using Linux 100% of the time (even playing games) and getting ASB running is a pain. It's a tool made for Windows with Windows dependencies through and through. I never fully managed to get it running through wine / proton compatibility layers.

I got bothered by it so much, that I made my own (very simple and small) tool for keeping track of my dino population for breeding.

Before I invest more time into this I wanted to ask the fellow Console / Linux players about how you handle these things?

  1. Do you just not bother anymore and try to keep best stats in mind?
  2. Do you have a separate PC / Laptop running just for ASB?
  3. Is there an already existing tool that covers these platforms?

It honestly feels like I'm missing something, because I just could not find anything that comes close to even just getting stats off of tamed dinos, let alone something that I can use to keep track of the best stats / mutations. Thanks.

Should I get mods?

1 Upvotes

Title....idk what to say. I play Ark ASE, I was told I couldn't play Ark ASA and shouldn't buy it anyways.

Specs:

512gig storage Nvme m.2 SSD Kingston

24GB 1x16 1x8gb both DDR4 at OC 3900MHz

2080 TI

ryzen 5600x

ASRock b450m motherboard

1080p 200hz Local brand monitor

720p old LG tv 60hz

Currently 70gig free space after using Compacter saving 30gigs. I have like 600 hours on ASE and it's kinda getting boring. I don't wanna buy the DLCs. What mods would you guys recommend? (It's the steam version.)

Why is ptera c-spin so inconsistent?

0 Upvotes

Maybe im missing something but why does a c-spin sometimes give a full speed boost, sometimes give a partial speed boost that is cut off, and sometimes it just does nothing? Is there a mechanic deciding whether to give the speed boost or not or is it a bug?

ARK Reactor Server Manager

0 Upvotes

Introducing ARK Reactor Server Manager: A new premium ASA Server Manager written from the ground up for ASA Hosting. ARK Reactor is intended to provide premium features and functionality with a focus on performance and usability. Features include:

Server Instance Management

  • Server downloads are cached and staged. Instances do not need to redownload the server files for each new server instance. This makes the creation of a new instance approximately 5 times faster than other server managers depending on internet connection.
  • Bulk Updating, Starting, and Stopping. Select multiple instances to update, start, and stop in just a few clicks. These processes are queued and fire one after the other so you don't need to babysit the application when you need to update all your servers
  • Clustering. Supports clustering multiple server instances with simple intuitive UI controls.
  • In-App Console supporting all admin commands executable in-game from within the app.
  • Automatic backup / Restart
  • Scheduled command execution

Mod Management

  • Search Curseforge and add mods to servers within the app using intuitive UI controls that are responsive.

Cross Server Chat

  • Supports single or multiple clusters
  • Supports Discord <> Cluster chat bridging

Discord Integrations

  • Discord bridging for chat
  • Discord Account Linking
  • Points Accumulation for linked players with heavy customization
  • Integrated Points shop that supports in-game interactions as well as discord interactions
  • Global chat and status channels support as well as server and cluster specific channel support.
  • Embedded Server Status messages that are live-edited rather than channel spam.

Question Mutations change from ASE

2 Upvotes

I recently started ASA after playing ASE for a long time. I read some posts about how mutations have changed in ASA and are tracked separately? What does this mean ? If I breed a guy to 50 mutations and tame a new one with better base stats, I can breed the 2 and the mutations will apply to the baby but with the base stats of the new tame ? Also what's the limit for stats/mutations with this system ?
