223 is here! Still no cooking! They say its nearly done though XD In the meantime, new fishies!

Current Version: v223.0
Unversioned Hotfix: Disabled LODBias console command for Skeletal Meshes. Is not supported and causes rendering problems.
* New Creatures: Kairuku & Angler Fish!
* New Structures, Catapult, Minigun Turret
* Creature "Fur" pass
* Tiered Server Admin, Wildcard Admin, & Tribe Admin Nametag Icons
* PvE "Tribe Warfare" option (capability for Tribes to officially declare war on each other for mutually-agreed-upon period of time). This is enabled by default. To disable it, add:

WindowsServer\Game.ini
(or LinuxServer)
[/script/shootergame.shootergamemode]
bPvEAllowTribeWar=false

If you want Tribes to be able to cancel an agreed-upon war before it has actually started (default not allowed), then you can also add into that INI:
bPvEAllowTribeWarCancel=true

Took some doing, with some a few recovery sessions to eat a lot of meat, lucky it was stuck at some rocks

G'day Blokes & Sheilas,
Was adventuring around the map yesterday on "Good Thing" (my spino), heard the call over TS that a Alpha Raptor spawned, soon there after I came across one as well, checked it with spyglass, ok it's low lvl, will eat this easy.
Moving on, came across another alpha raptor, this one was around lvl 40, Devoured it too. Now, I am starting to think that all these alphas spawned in at the same time, randomly scattered across the map.
Anyhow, moving on down the map, I seen another alpha raptor, Yay, check it out with spyglass
Holy smoke! http://i.imgur.com/oeTejn9.png Do I ? Don't I ? hmmmmm....
Right, c'mon you "good Thing" lets do this, so I wandered over, clearing rogue dinos on the way, take out his pack of raptors first, all good,
Ok POUNCE'S on the alpha "insert Battle music here" Geronimo! Chomp Chomp Chomp, and Chomp some more, Bam! Dead! Game Over! http://i.imgur.com/ESCtR1d.png

Hey Ry, its server update time, 210 has rolled out and no one will be able to connect
Sofie 13 Sep, 2015 @ 11:14pm 
Thanks Daz. Hopefully that's all - its making taming the little monkeys hard! =) I hope you're well.
Daz 13 Sep, 2015 @ 8:43pm 
Probably to do with server performance. The ping doesn't seem to waver so I don't think its the hosts connections.
When the whole game actually pauses for a few seconds for everyone, I can at least tell you that is likely the world saving.
Dobsonium 13 Sep, 2015 @ 12:37am 
yeah, I get that, occassionaly

press e, nothing, press e, nothing, press e, and it all catches up... d'oh
Sofie 12 Sep, 2015 @ 10:08pm 
Just curious - is anyone else getting server lag? Accessing doors/chests/dino inventories I keep getting the 'remote inventory loading' message... =(
Dobsonium 12 Sep, 2015 @ 12:23am 
Thx Ry
Dobsonium 11 Sep, 2015 @ 10:05pm

Dobsonium 30 Aug, 2015 @ 4:29pm 
Today 31st August incoming update @ http://i.imgur.com/wgKqJLa.png

Upon further testing, it seems the dye does indeed run out, which is ok cause you can paint a lot with it.
Painting walls can be interesting, stone for eg can use one colour outside, another colour inside, and a third on the timber parts, metal walls have different part too, main, rivets, & tab pieces. All can be painted using the Altfire+hotkey combo. which resets every time you climb a ladder or switch out your held item

Have Fun

Forgot to add in my recent announcement, the 202.2 hotfix has been added to the server.
Daz 26 Aug, 2015 @ 5:58pm 
I dont know, I had a blast with the paint brush haha
Dobsonium 25 Aug, 2015 @ 11:45pm 
The Paint gun and its effects on different surfaces, eg full walls, door frames, window frames, doors, windows, ramps, floor. http://i.imgur.com/5Apac9G.jpg http://i.imgur.com/Lt9sXiC.jpg
Looks like full walls, floors will be darker than anything with a door, hatch, frame. Can paint cabinets, but not the vault. One colour dye will paint everything you want until you change colours, then its gone. I think this is pretty damn good value, not sure what it costs to make the paint gun yet as I spawned one in a SP game to test
Dobsonium 25 Aug, 2015 @ 5:30pm 
Looks like the update to 202 only allows access to 202 & not anything below it, eg 201
Daz 19 Aug, 2015 @ 7:11am 
Good to know. RoK was a ♥♥♥♥♥ to record with OBS. At least ARK works.

Good News - OBS works in ARK :D

Heya, Just a heads up, seems its impossible to tame apes until the server reaches patch 201.1 as the taming is somewhat broken

Hey guys ready to play some ARK!
