    How to build a perfect circle - New Homestead round base tutorial

    Posted: 23 May 2019 09:04 AM PDT

    I've always liked utilizing ruins, but making them look unique without taking away from the overall aesthetic is really challenging. I came up with this using stone, CKF, glass and of course lots of tek elevators. The lighting is created using vanilla standing torches with angler gel.

    How do you pick up the note in the overseer arena?

    Posted: 23 May 2019 09:38 AM PDT

    I found this explorer note to the left of the overseer spawn point on a pedestal. Had the ??? next to it but I couldn't interact with it at all to pick it up. Could anyone tell me whats up with it and how to grab it?

    Is it still possible to get a dossier book?

    Posted: 22 May 2019 11:44 PM PDT

    So a while ago there was a dossier book that came in the special edition collections of ark, but I can't find it available for purchase on ark's website or on amazon. I know wildcard was selling a game-less special edition pack for PC users, but it doesn't appear to be getting sold anymore, at least not for less than $300 or some crazy amount like that. Does anyone know if there's a place to get the book or the overall collector's pack still? Thanks for the help!

    Non-Dedicated needs some love? :(

    Posted: 22 May 2019 10:05 PM PDT

    I've been playing non-dedicated with my friend for about 2 years now, on and off. We took a half-year break because all our tames got wiped with an update somehow, and we just didn't have the morale to rebuild. But we've been back to playing for about 3 weeks now, and we've already defeated the alpha broodmother and have the megapithecus in our sights next.

    There are some prevailing issues with non-dedicated that I've noticed over the years. I don't know if anyone important in Wildcard browses this sub or will care to gander at this post, but here goes.

    - Tether distance is DESPERATELY in need of a rework. It's impossible to go caving individually, do boss fights individually, etc. It just turns what should be everyday grinds into massive tasks. It also makes aberration completely unplayable, for whatever reason. We're just constantly dragged to each other at a bunch of different points across the map, even when tether distance is at like 99999.

    - Dinosaurs swimming at mach speed. This issue is pretty rare, thankfully, but sometimes when you ride (terrestrial) tames in water, they'll swim insanely fast. I learned the hard way that if you're swimming at this speed and hit a rock on the way out of the water, you end up flying across the entire map. Not fun.

    - Ragnarok singleplayer is perfectly fine. However, whenever I host Ragnarok on non-dedicated, I get about 20 frames less than singleplayer. I don't have the best setup in the world, but I sincerely don't think it's a performance issue considering there is no difference in singleplayer and non-dedicated FPS on The Island.

    - Also, and this is a pretty obvious one, but what's the go with us dropping items and them sometimes falling through the map? Come on, man.

    But yeah. You wouldn't think it, but us non-dedicated players do exist. And even though there's only two of us, we need some love!

    Tek Cave & Overseer - how the fuck

    Posted: 22 May 2019 08:54 PM PDT

    I'm yet to find a decisive guide on the Tek Cave and the Overseer literally anywhere online. I've gotten a bunch of contradicting information, so I have a few questions

    Tek weaponry/armor - Can it be used in the Overseer fight?

    Will I be able to get rexes through the Tek Cave and to the Overseer?

    Is there anything I should be taking in other than rexes and ascendant armor/weaponry?

    Anything else I should know?

    I don't even know what the Overseer looks like, by the way. I have no idea about this fight, other than that it's quite difficult. If it's of any relevance, I'm playing with one friend on non-dedicated. We have 18 30khp 800%dmg rexes, a yuty and a pig, which has worked for all of he bosses so far.

    So what should I take into the tek cave? That's all I'm asking for, help me out pls

    PvP Question.

    Posted: 22 May 2019 11:53 PM PDT

    My tribe and I plan on doing a large scale raid on a private cluster (turret damage is official as well as dino hp stats) and we are wondering what kind of soakers to use for an online attack. Trikes are great for offline, same with rock elementals but when it comes to online they can be hard to used without getting sniped/picked. We are also aware of Racers being a great method, but with our 100 armor asc platform saddles they still take 200 dmg from heavies. In all we are curious if racers are the way to go despite the damage they take from heavies, or should we implement rock elementals as well?

    thanks for the help!

    #Raptor are faster and stronger than #Dilophosaurus to kill them we need more advanced weapon like #shotgun.

    Transferring ownership question

    Posted: 22 May 2019 08:44 PM PDT

    Hey everyone, I need some help.

    I tried searching for my answers first but could not find exactly what I'm looking for.

    I play on an unofficial dedicated server that we just turned into a cluster tonight. Upon transferring characters to the new map it made me create a new character. It did not have a spawn survivor or download survivor option. Only create new. After creating new I check a terminal and nothing.

    I then went back to the original server, and got the same create new option. Only create new. I checked a few times on each, with that being the only option. I also logged out and logged in on each server.

    Weirdest thing though, when I logged into the original server, after about 15 seconds of running around all my stuff snapped back on my character. My character info was gone and I no longer own my dinos or structures but my personal items were back on my body from my old character.

    My questions are:

    1) was this something I did or was I ark'd. Did I Make things worse by creating new? I checked a couple videos and they said relogging makes the character come back which it did not for me.

    2) If I use console commands to get my stuff back, will I still get the imprint buff if its "mine" or does that just give me ownership like unclaiming?

    3) There was only 1 backup of .arkprofile. we tried rolling the profile back but it autosaved after the mess up. That's our fault for not backing up more than 1 profile. I honestly didnt know you had to backup server files and steam profiles. Question - will rolling the actual server back include the profile, or does it have to be a backed up .arkprofile file?

    4) console commanding everything back, will there be any other issues I will run into that you can think of?

    5) could there be a server setting that is causing this? I tried transferring again with the "new" character the exact same way, except it worked the 2nd time exact way every video said it should.

    6) when I transferred the first time it did not say "transferring will deleted and wipe your character" thing that it normally does that you have to accept. It did the second and successful time that I tried.

    Thanks for reading this and thank you for any and all help.

    How is autosaving done?

    Posted: 22 May 2019 06:54 PM PDT

    So I noticed that when a multiplayer world is being autosaved, the game is not paused at all and I can continue doing what I'm doing. In contrast, for games like factorio (it'll show a saving the map message) and the game will be paused for few seconds.

    Does anyone know how they do it from a technical standpoint? I imagine ark survival world is very large, and there are so many entities to save.

    2nd player can't use buttons inside machines??

    Posted: 22 May 2019 06:50 PM PDT

    My husband and I are playing single player. He is the host and he can use the buttons that show up in the grinder and cooking pot. However I can't. It's mostly frustrating in the grinder when I want to grind something other than wood to thatch or stone to flint. Is there a setting I can change or is this just how it is?

    How do I reset player data on Xbox One Nitrado?

    Posted: 22 May 2019 03:31 PM PDT

    Under Backup in General Settings, I chose "start with new save game", which reset the map, but I still have my player data.

    Titan Taming Virgins: Alright...what are we doing wrong?

    Posted: 22 May 2019 02:20 PM PDT

    Hey all. So last night was our little groups (3 players) first time summoning the ice titan, and we were stoked. Manas and scoped rifles, we had a nice system of one mana snapping aggro while the other two focus the ankle...and that's about as far as we got.

    Everytime we actually hit the node and not the titan, we were getting 1 dmg, if we missed the node we did extra dmg to the titan - we discovered the titans terrible aggro/reset mechanics too...

    So we're good to go for another attempt tonight and we have a plan for the aggro, but after almost 2 hours we didn't even drop the ankle node. Does anyone know the HP of the nodes per titan?

    EDIT: So we farmed for a few hours and got a 51 Mek, really lit the node up while the other 2 manas traded aggro...never killed the ankle...
