Server updated to v233.1
QuotePatch 233 welcomes a new friend to the ARK, it’ll come as no surprise to survivors that the Gallimimus has been often been described as being chicken-like, with it’s extremely skittish behaviour, looking nervous even when eating! The speedy herbivore makes its way onto the ARK with no natural way to defend itself except for running away. Thankfully the Gallimimus may very well be the fastest dinosaur on the ARK, it's strength, endurance, and speed of its legs allow it to ferry up to 3 Survivors in a specially-designed Saddle!
Today’s update adds an enormous amount of content and optimization, including:
SWAT-style Assault Armor for all your raiding needs!
Greenhouse structure pieces to aid survivors in growing crops
The shockingly powerful Electric Prod capable of rendering even the strongest unconscious.
Improved save-game and save-and-load times for your ARKs!
Server update needed to get to version 234.

235 released. Will update our server when it's been cleared by Grim.
Update: server not happy with 235. Investigating ...
Here a post that is posted on the ark steam forums:
QuoteHey guys, we found the issue and are working on getting it resolved asap.
Turns out some accidentally untested code got into the client build at the last minute, we're going to take ten minutes to tar and feather the fellow responsible and in the meantime, we need to cook a new build, so expect 30-40 minutes minimum while we sort stuff.
Super sorry about this, shouldn't cause any problems for anyone outside that the servers/clients wont start up.
This was some code related to localization that was supposed to be defined out of use at the moment, but snuck into the final build.
Maybe one of these days I'll share one of our bug sheets publically so people can see all the stuff we do find before we break our builds last minute ;D

QuoteUnversion Hotfix: Added community Spanish translation Translation by Neizan, IsCariote Youtuber and his team! Also updated the "Localization Manager" to have a "Update Archives from Manifest" button which allows you to update the latest localization strings from "English" into your selected language archives!.
* BattlEye Anti-Cheat System!
BattlEye Notes: The new executable to properly play on Official Servers is ShooterGame\Binaries\ShooterGame_BE.exe, which we've updated the Steam Launch options to include (if you launch ShooterGame.exe directly, you will be redirected to ShooterGame_BE.exe if you connect to any Official Server running BattlEye). If you wish to run your Unofficial Server with BattlEye, you can do so with -BattlEye (however, only functions with Windows servers currently). Note that BattlEye is currently not ready for Mac or Linus, so we have temporarily disabled the capability of Mac/Linux clients to connect to BattlEye servers. We hope to have this resolved within the coming few days. Thank you for your patience!
v235.2
* Added community German Translation, courtesy of Thomas Kowalzik - Owner of Arkforum.de! Thank you Thomas :)

* Added ♥ ARK Valentine's Day Event ♥, which will run until 5pm EST Monday. Get new "Box o' Chocolates" Item randomly dropped by mating tamed Dinos, eating it will insta restore full HP, or knock 40% off a Dino's Tame Bar (Remote Use).

Custom servers can activate the event with "-vday" commandline!
* Fixed "Unassigned" key bindings on localized languages
We are not running the valentine's day event.
Box o' chocolates would be good for the Giga, but is a bit silly and would take the fun* out of the tame.

All the events I've seen so far have been super silly and taken the immersiveness away for me :/ (Halloween, Thanks Giving etc)

I opted for Muffin.
i got chippey but her spaddle is expensive but worth it, they can hold a lot of wood due too them reducing the weight of wood so instead of 100 = 50 it changes it to 100=10 so 1000 wood only weights 100. its cost a hell of a lot to get a saddle a lot of metal and paste, i can make then for people if they bring me resources
- Gatherer: Castoroides gather wood extremely efficiently and will gather wood autonomously while on wandering.
- Transport: Wood, Thatch and Stone weigh less while being carried by the Castoroides. Wood and Thatch weigh only 20% of their usual value (10KG per and 0.4KG per 100, respectively), while Stone weights on 50% of its usual value (25KG per 100).
- Organic Craftsman: Once saddled the Castoroides can be used as a Smithy, allowing for a mobile crafting wagon.
Seem pretty useful
edit; I feel we are straying somewhat off the topic of updates :)

It's brilliant, some quick tips it eats berries ( very slowly ) and eats a lot of Narcos it took me nearly around 200 for a lvl 10 beaver. So take a few extra with you it eats sleigh and torpor drops quick not crazy quickly but quickly. They are very cute and so far I have found three spawn points that are in shallow water they spawn in twos aswell it seems, they can spawn under my base ( YAY ), near the trench and other end of the river by trench next to raptor valley. They can give you fur when killed and this would let me to think they might spawn in the winter zone

Quote* Made the Localized language correspond to the Language Setting for ARK in your Steam Client, with the following supported languages (Thank you so much, volunteer ARK translators, you're the best!!!!).
Note: if you want to use a non-English language now, you must set it in the "Languages" tab of the Game Properties within your Steam Client, as the game does NOT automatically select your Steam Client language if it is already installed. You will only have to do this manually once, and it is automatically chosen for new ARK installations.

German: de
French: fr
Italian: it
Spanish: es
Simplified Chinese: zh
Traditional Chinese: zh-TW
Russian: ru

Not to worry, I experimented.
Earlier I logged in emptied the dams and killed the beavers in HV, one of them may have made it back too quickly from me dropping him away from the area and got me while encumbered with wood.
Anyway....... Just logged in and two beavers were back at HV, each had a house.
So it's been reduced from yesterday, but is still actually creating them, unlike before.

SERVER ADMIN NOTE: There was an issue with v241.0 that caused Flyers to temporarily lose their Saddles and all Dinos to fall through Structures upon reloading. We strongly recommend all server admins upgrade to v241.1 as soon as possible, and consider a one-time rollback of their save data if their players were affected by use of 241.0. Accordingly for this reason, at 5:30pm Eastern on May 17, we rolled-back all the ARK Official Servers by approximately 2 hours.

These require server-side update:
* Fixed some Raft exploits (C4-Poker and Breach-Rafts)
* Fixed Naming of Rafts and some other Raft networking stuff
* Reduced the scaling by 50% of Dino Adult Food Consumption rate when unstasising. This is to help compensate for the bug fix in v242.0 which now correctly utilizes the Adult Food Consumption Rate when unstasising a Dinosaur (hence the higher rate of consumption on Giganotosaurus, which were one of the few Dinosaurs to use that multiplier).
* Allowed Vaults to be built on Rafts, specifically.
* Fixed Raft naming & some other potential Raft networking issues.
* Made Fortitude slightly more effective for avoiding Disease (90 Fortitude == 80% reduction in Disease chance, rather than 110 Fortitude)

* Fixed an issue with Rockets. Required deleting all existing Rocket Ammo Items once. We are sorry, but it was necessary! Special thanks to Survivor "Rocketreporter" for the extremely helpful bounty report! Requires Server Update, we recommend upgrading as soon as possible!
v244.3
* Fixed issue with players teleporting above the landscape in Cave 1. Requires Server Update.
* Windows & Linux Dedicated Servers now support automatic mod download/installation/updating! Just add "-automanagedmods" to your launch commandline and it will do so before the server launches (note for Maps this will not work unless you're specifying the Workshop ID to load a Mod Map). On Linux Servers, you need to run this script (included with the ARK dedicated server files) once to install SteamCMD: \SteamCMDInstall.sh
You can also specify a manual list of extra Steam Workshop Mods/Maps/TC ID's to download/install/update in your Game.ini via (with the commandline as normal to actually use them in-game), example:
[ModInstaller]
ModIDS=680481868
ModIDS=682394267
ModIDS=714672786
Server updated to v244.7
Quotev244.7
* Fixed crash in 244.6 (recommend that all unofficial servers upgrade ASAP!)
v244.6
* Defaulted to using "new save format", which is approximately 4x faster and 50% smaller. If you want to use the old save format, launch with -oldsaveformat. (New saves are not backwards compatible!)
* Reduced client game memory usage by about 600 MB system and 600 MB GPU RAM! (all meshes now stream LOD's dynamically). This could potentially have a small runtime performance impact, so to use the old method (more RAM usage but no potential performance loss), launch with -nomemorybias
* Diseases are now permanently cleared whenever you level-up; as you get "older", it's more time consuming to recover from a disease.
* Titanosaurus torpor reduced by 50%, and Travel Distance for taking Torpor reduced by 50%. Effectively, Titanosaurus is now much easier to knock out. Titanosaurus Saddle Engram is now moved to Level 85 with 120 EP requirement.
v244.5
* Experimental fast save/load code implemented for servers. Approximately 4x faster and 75% smaller. We strongly recommend backing up your save games if you intend to try this out, as we're still testing it. Use with launch commandline "-newsaveformat"
- Fixed a case where armor could be circumvented using gun weapons. Requires Server Update.
Thanks Oldie
Can a server admin please post custom config changes made to the server, just so we can tune Doddex etc to get more accurate data. E.g. Tame Speed is 2 I think but are any other variables non default?
As far as I'm aware the only setting which needs to be configured in the Dododex calculator is to change the taming speed from 1 to 2.
However, I'll grab all the config files and post them up for viewing. I agree that it's not wholly accurate.
v245.0 expected tomorrow.

Quote- Gate Frames are no longer considered foundation/resource-blockers (and can not be built within range of enemy Foundations).
- You can launch an autodestroy enabled server with "?OnlyAutoDestroyCoreStructures=true" to prevent any non-core/non-foundation structures from autodestroying (however they'll still get autodestroyed if a floor that they're on gets autodestroyed, of course). Official PvE Servers now use this option.
- Fixed an exploit that allowed phasing through walls.
- Fixed a turret avoidance exploit.

* OfficialServer Transferred Dinos now display the name of the server they were transferred from when looking at them (only displays this info when dead if a non-Tribe Dino).
* Fixed issue with Wild Dinos spawning inside bases (may still be an 'edge case' if you have a very long fence with few nearby structures; requires at least 15 "core" structures within a 6000 unit radius to prevent spawn, or tamed dino within a 4000 unit radius, but otherwise will work properly now).

There's 2 sorts of dino's ready for the good old beam me up Scotty test plan (or is it more like the movie the fly?).
1 sort that are tamed and 1 sort that are bred and have the text above them showing they are from the SE-server.
Thanks, guys.

Interesting.
As a general heads-up we're also planning to launch a Primitive Plus server as soon as the bugs are ironed out. This will most likely be on The Island and will mean The Center being put into stasis for the time being.
More to follow...

You playing Prim + ?
Where?
That looks like he's on our server, just across from you Pen. Arms old base.
That's what I thought but there's no ruins on the other side of the river where that is.
Quote from: DuVeL;421459That looks like he's on our server, just across from you Pen. Arms old base.
WELL Spotted! That's exactly where I am, stood at the window just chillin :D
Galatoni will cry happy tears if you are thinking of a Prim+ server man, it'd be nice to wipe the island and see the new caves etc with fresh eyes :D Sounds awesome!
No hate for the Centre though, I mean it's still amazing, I'm just bitter about the bug that killed my base :)
We were going to launch it as Prim+ Is now available for dedicated servers but a swift glance at the forums tells us it's bugged.
As soon as it's good we'll spin one up and have a go.
About the pic - I got it now - Was thinking about it being a different elevation (i.e. back to North) to where he was. I see now that his back is to the East.
Ark is now more dangerous then before!!!

* Hair now reacts to being underwater, phyiscs and materials
* Fixed various misaligned or missing water physics volumes on TheIsland

v254.91
* Fixed issue with getting items with servers using HarvestHealthAmount greater than 1. Requires server update!
Thanks Oldie
Servers updated to 254.944
Quote* Fixed issue with Harvesting saying "X Item Removed." (Requires Server Update!)
* Added server "?ClampItemSpoilingTimes=true" which will clamp all spoiling times to the items' maximum spoiling times. Useful if any infinite-spoiling exploits were used on the server and you wish to clean them up. Could potentially cause issues with Mods that alter spoiling time, hence it is an option.
v255 has been released but I'd like to hold off updating the servers until the first patch is released (a bit of prior experience being exercised here).
Of course, if anyone wants the update done now then I will be more than happy to oblige.

* C4-carrying Flyers now move at a fixed slow speed.

Oh wow thanks Oldie, mine was literally at max so if it worked I should be able to place something will check :D
Out of interest, why 132? I think it's fine but seems like a random number. Is that the max or something?
In any case building is restricted by the distance to the core structure of the raft so now aircraft carriers in the offing. ;-)
Quote from: Penfold;422904Out of interest, why 132?
The default setting is 1.0 which (I think) equates to 88 units. I've upped it to 1.5 which is why we're at 132. I could up it again if needed.
Ahh I see. Let's leave it as is and if anyone needs more space then they can give us a shout. Thanks for sorting.

In the upcoming patch v258, PC is receiving a greater achievement set that matches the achievements on console. Unlocking these achievements comes with various cosmetics, hairstyles, and emotes.
One of these achievements called "Map Maker" requires the player to uncover more than 80% of the Mini-Map. However, many players at this point will have unlocked most of their mini-map already. The achievements are not retroactive, meaning in order to allow players to get this achievement we will be wiping the mini-map data for all players. The mini-map data is the only data that will be wiped, your other player data should remain untouched.
The patch seems to be out now. Massive update, server needs updating it seems.
Any off you awesome admins around? :flirty:

v258.8 released but server not yet updated. A new map, Ragnarok
http://store.steampowered.com/app/642250/Ragnarok__ARK_Expansion_Map/
QuoteABOUT THIS CONTENT
Journey through an expansive 144 sq. kilometer environment where elements from The Island, Scorched Earth, and all new biomes are combined to bring the ultimate survivor experience. Whether tackling the extreme cold atop the highest mountains, harvesting resources from an active volcano, or just searching for that perfect base location, Ragnarok plays host to explorers and base builders alike. But survivors beware, Ragnarok houses such creatures as Polar Bears, Ice Wyverns, and a mystical creature many have yet to tame in the ARK universe. Ragnarok boasts many unique features such as: custom explorer notes, challenging dungeons, dungeon bosses, active hot springs, unique pickup-able/harvestable resources, new biomes, an active volcano, unique tree platform locations, environmental traps, unique ruins, and so much more combined with a beautiful world to explore.
Ragnarok includes:
A 144 sq kilometer map designed to be explored by land/sea/air with most places accessible by foot.
A host of harvest-able resources readily available for players to pick up, including sticks and carrots.
Building caves designed to be built in, big and small
New unique takes on former ARK creatures, as well a special creature unique to Ragnarok
Build tree platforms on unique trees/rocks in biomes other than the redwoods!
Expansive biomes that were built to reward those who explore them
Realistic Transitions that blend the terrain more naturally
Challenging dungeons in that require forethought and preparation
An active Volcano that while erupting yields a high amount of resources in the form of lava crystal
Beautiful vistas and base locations as far as the eye can see
Hot springs that while dormant yield a relaxing buff, but while active can cause a quick death!
Ruins to not only explore but that can also be incorporated into base builds
A vast ocean with its own ecosystem
A future desert to find and tame SE creatures
Upcoming unique explorer notes that hold the key to Ragnarok's secrets
Server updated to v258.81
Quote* Fixed tamed Griffin not being ride-able without saddle (there is no Griffin saddle ;)

Thanks OB but you forgot to set "MinDireBearLvl=150"!!!
A tweak made ...
SupplyCrateLootQualityMultiplier=2 (from 1 to 5)
FishingLootQualityMultiplier=2 (from 1 to 5)
In addition I have told the server to spawn a Direbear where it would have spawned a land-based Alpha. It won't make a great difference to the Direbear shortage but it will help.
Wondering what will be in the drops now then. Let me know what you want us to do with the stuff found yesterday.
Thanks for the bears, hopefully it will work sometime to find a nice high level bear. I still think there are to many terrorbirds in the forest sometime though.

Quote- Huge perf gains, may vary based on system configuration due to upgrading to the latest Unreal Rendering code. After changing your in game settings, be sure to restart your clients!
- Tameable Titanoboas!
- New Server Option: Force Respawn of Wild Dinos on Server Restart! Enabled by default on official servers, this will force weekly respawns of dinos on all servers to prevent certain dino types (like the Basilo and Spino) from becoming depopulated on long running servers. (?ServerAutoForceRespawnWildDinosInterval=SECONDS). Note in some cases this may not work more than once, we may have solved the case but we're looking into it ;) .
- New Server Option: Tribe Size and Alliance Size Limits! The new tribe member limit is defaulted to 70 players and the new alliance per tribe limit is defaulted to 10 on official servers (MaxAlliancesPerTribe=# and MaxTribesPerAlliance=# in Game.ini). Note: Values may be off by 1 (looking into it!), so just pick your number and then add 1 to it.
- Platform Saddles are now limited to maximum 40 saddles per tribe. Each platform saddle (with structures) counts as 19 tribe tame slots (?PersonalTamedDinosSaddleStructureCost=19 & ?MaxPersonalTamedDinos=40).
- 1/4 sized Ragnarok map update (the "Southwest Update"):
https://survivetheark.com/index.php?/forums/topic/211287-ragnarok-dlc-patchnotes-eta-29th-august/

PC - 273.0 (https://ark.gamepedia.com/273.0)[/h]
Released October 26, 2017- Added the capability to "Lay On" Simple Bed (https://ark.gamepedia.com/Simple_Bed) and Modern Bed (https://ark.gamepedia.com/Bunk_Bed) (2 people on Modern Bed). If you log out while laying on bed, you'll remain in sleeping pose on the bed even when you log-out, and will stay on the bed even while it moves on a dynamic platform. (You can still be damaged and killed when on the bed).
- Added the capability for another player to "Lock" handcuffed players to Seating Structures (including Chairs (https://ark.gamepedia.com/Chair), Benches (https://ark.gamepedia.com/Wooden_Bench), Beds (https://ark.gamepedia.com/Bed), etc). When locked to a structure, the handcuffed player will appear to have a cable connecting them to the structure, and be forced to sit on the structure. This state persists across logging out as well. Another player can also "Unlock" you from the Structure, or remove the handcuffs (https://ark.gamepedia.com/Handcuff). Chairs within Cages (https://ark.gamepedia.com/Cage) are thus very useful for transportation of prisoners.
- When handcuffed, Poop (https://ark.gamepedia.com/Poop) now is forced directly into Slot 1. Prisoners can consume it rapidly as it builds up to attempt suicide.
- Fixed saving/loading of Lamp Post (https://ark.gamepedia.com/Lamppost) Light intensity value.

Such as overriding "SupplyCrate" will override ALL supply crates. Furthermore, you can now set bAppendItemSets=true to ADD item sets to supply crates, rather than totally overriding all their items. And you can set bAppendPreventIncreasingMinMaxItemSets=true to dynamically increase the amount of items dropped by however many additional itemsets you add ( only applies when bAppendItemSets=true ).

If you wish to enable this Heavy Turret limit on your own unofficial Server, you can use these values in the ShooterGameMode section of your Game.ini:
bLimitTurretsInRange=true
LimitTurretsRange=10000
LimitTurretsNum=100

Hi Guys, Is there a server update that needs to be applied, I can't see the server following a small client update
I've been informed Ark is broken right now, even on official servers. Patch is expected soon, but our server will be down until it is fixed on Wildcard's end.
:eyebrow:
After a couple of hours the server was available but really slow due to all the raptors. I did a kill of all wild dinos and a saveworld and for now it is playable but until a fix is provided we can expect the raptors to return in large numbers. I had to roll back to a save from early yesterday morning in order to get it working. If you are on the server and see the raptor population explode then please let me know.
Thanks for the efforts mate.
Thanks Whitey.
This always happens when Oldie goes on holiday :roflmao:

Thanks Whitey :)
Anyone know if the server is up? I can't find it since a week ago.
The server and Castle mod both needed an update which has now been done. You don't need to leave it a week before saying. :flirty:

If you can't see it in the in-game browser then you can join from this page. (https://arkservers.net/1/name/asc/?term=86.133.224.232%3A27015)
Cheers all, got in. BTW, did I miss a super turkey? Lots of red death messages...

Just realised that this forum has been languishing in "The Games that no Longer Float Our Boat" section!
