    Do current level equalized spawn entries exist for official maps?

    Posted: 21 Apr 2020 07:24 AM PDT

    My group has hosted a private server at various times over the last few years and have played on Rag, Center, and Valguero. We just set up an Extinction server and have discovered the horrible low level bias of the official maps.

    https://www.reddit.com/r/playark/comments/6tdw99/distribution_of_wild_dino_levels_per_map/

    I always figured the level gaps without spawns were some artifact of setting the level cap to 150, not something inherent to the map.

    https://ark.gamepedia.com/Level_Weight

    I'm looking for something that equalizes the levels or changes to match the distribution on the free DLC maps we're used to.

    I found one a year old that only adjusts 7 of the 43 spawn entries:

    https://www.reddit.com/r/playark/comments/bbrrul/updated_level_equalizer/

    https://ark.gamepedia.com/Spawn_Entries#Extinction

    There is a mod I found that should balance spawn levels, but it also hasn't been updated in a year. The author posted a week ago that they were working on an update though.

    https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1675932178

    Has anyone used either of these or anything else to better weight the level distribution? We're 2 days in and spending hours scouring the map on the back of a low level ptero for something with a 3 digit level besides coelacanths is not what we were expecting

    Edit/Addendum: Is there an easy way to extract all the spawn entries for Extinction? I can figure out how to modify and write them all up. I've got plenty of time these days.

    Death in tribe log

    Posted: 21 Apr 2020 02:05 AM PDT

    Does anyone know what does and doesn't show in the tribe log regarding deaths?

    A few recent examples, I died after getting picked, I didn't expect it to show on the log who killed me because essentially I died from the fall.

    But my argent when it died, it simply said your argent was killed. Nothing else.

    I know when as a player die to a wild dino it says what dino killed me and it's level in the log.

    Does it do the same for tames?

    I know for sure it didn't starve to death as it was only a few hours after I died. (Also I know it would say your argent was killed, but there's a second line saying it starved to death in log).

    Aberration help

    Posted: 21 Apr 2020 08:52 AM PDT

    I bought all the dlcs this morning and was very hyped to start a brand new game in aberration since I kinda dislike the flyers (argy most of all, it breaks the game imo) and was told to expect very little flight in aberration.

    As I jump in the game it starts to freeze and drop fps even when moving just a few steps so you can imagine what trying to fight a raptor with a spear looked like.

    On the island and ragnarok I can play with high fps using directx 10 so I was wandering if there is something I could do to improve fps, maybe giving it more time to load or using certain settings?

    Comets/Meteors damaging structures

    How old is ARK? some issues will absolutely NEVER change ...

    Posted: 21 Apr 2020 06:18 AM PDT

    I don´t know how long I´ve been away. Was playing Extinction for a bit and now returned for Genesis cause some friends invited me and STRAIGHT away ... absolutely nothing has been improved in regards of the ARK meshes. Why the fuck do arrows and darts still get stuck on corners or hit without actually hitting stuff. I tried to shoot something that was moving for 10 min. and while you see blood and the arrow stuck in the animal it just dosn´t give a fuck.

    The horrible tail clipping and that you always get ported back if you accidently move a dino and it touched a tail of another dine.

    So... some things will never change, right? Kind of sad, was hoping they would actually polish this a bit.

    Difficulty of the Genesis Alpha Missions

    Posted: 21 Apr 2020 01:35 AM PDT

    We're a tribe of 3, playing on a cluster with official/vanilla settings. I'd call ourselves experienced players. We've beaten Alpha Brood/Mega/Dragon/Overseer/Manticore/Rockwell, all on official/vanilla settings, and are well established. However we really struggle with various alpha missions on Genesis.

    What's up with that difficulty curve? It's way too steep. While Beta seems more or less balanced and fun, Gamma is way too easy to the point where it's almost boring. And then there's the ridiculously hard Alpha missions.

    We managed to do *some* Alpha missions (Gather, Escort) after some practice. But the majority is just not beatable.

    The Alpha hunt missions (killing Brute Spino, Allo, Reaper, Giga, etc) just seem impossible. What dinos/weapons are you supposed to use? We even tried imprinted Gigas (transfers allowed on our cluster) and got shredded in seconds. Gigas go to rage mode pretty quickly, and when you bring a Rex/Therizino army it's impossible to maneuver those along the tracks, or get any of the logistics done within the tight time limit. Same problem with any ranged weapons, we tried with various capped rifles (shotgun, assault, sniper, tek) while standing in safe spots, but then you just run out of time.

    The Alpha gauntlet missions also are impossible. We can't even do those on Beta because we run out of time, let alone Alpha. You obviously can't use own weapons or dinos, and even while surviving the waves with multiple sets of good armor we just can't deal enough damage with 3 players before we run out of time.

    How are you supposed to do the Alpha hunt/gauntlet missions? Are those only for tribes with 10 or more players? That can't be it. Why doesn't the mission difficulty scale with player count?

    Then the Alpha race missions. Even if you avoid every obstacle, take every turn perfectly and don't miss any of the boost rings you're short multiple seconds. We tried some of the races probably a hundred times don't see any more potential of optimizing this. It's just not beatable.

    So, what about you guys? Did you beat the Alpha missions? How? Any hints? Are we doing something fundamentally wrong?

    RTX cards and crashes/shadow in 2020

    Posted: 21 Apr 2020 01:29 AM PDT

    Hey guys!

    The title might speak for itself, but let me elaborate:

    When RTX cards were released there were some problem with them in ARK. Some had to use -sm4, some had to lower shadows, some had to ditch the new card completely.

    Now i'm thinking on getting a new card, but 'cos ARK is still my main game i'm afraid of said problems and to be honest if i get a new card i wouldn't want to lower my graphical settings...

    So how are RTX cards doing in 2020 with ARK? Any bugs? Or were these problems silently fixed?

    What card do you guys use and did you have to do anything to not having any crashes?

    Thanks in advance!

    Tribe governance won't update

    Posted: 21 Apr 2020 12:32 AM PDT

    Recently started playing ark with some friends on our own server. (Ps4) I have a tribe with a close mate but we would like to keep structure ownership personal.

    The problem is: We can't update the governance settings. I can change the ownership to personal but the update settings button litteraly doesn't work. When I click it and exit the menu, the settings go back to default?

    Does anyone know how to fix this? Would hate to leave the tribe because then all my buildings are gone

    How does Deinonychus bleed scale?

    Posted: 20 Apr 2020 07:40 PM PDT

    There was an update that changed the Deinonychus bleed to scale with melee damage, but I'm finding no math or numbers on this scaling. I know the bleed deals 1-1.5% max hp at base, but if the scaling is really good it might change how I level my boss killer deins...
