Discussion Rock Drakes and Reapers are too weak imo

5 Upvotes

Is there(or could there be) a mod that buffs rock drakes and reapers? Wether it increases their stat scaling or simply makes them spawn at higher levels, idc

Rock drakes are worse than wyverns in every way. All they have is the advantage of a saddle. They are only worth using to travel on aberration(where you aren’t allowed to use any better methods of travel) and they are pretty weak in terms of stats

Reapers are pretty strong, but it’s not difficult to make a simple megalosaurus be stronger than one. Also I think they desperately need some kind of mechanic that allows them to do full damage to nameless without a shoulder pet activated. Being forced to remove your own armor to avoid nameless is really dumb imo

Rock drakes and reapers are two of the coolest creatures in the game, and it’s a shame they are completely outshined by many other creatures that are a fraction of the effort to tame. If there was just a mod that made them better I would really appreciate if somebody would call it out

Every sever promotion post I’ve seen heavily uses Ai and it’s so lazy in my opinion

Help Is there a way to play the same save across multiple computers?

Im playing ASE at college but when I’m home I want to play in my main computer and I was wondering if it was possible to play the same save on both.

I still prefer ASE over ASA. Evolved can definetly look amazing without high oversaturated visauls. My computer can't handle ASA's optimizations.

Discussion Super happy about getting that shotgun bp but like, can I even craft it in a fabricator? Kurtis said once in his video he'd need a rep just to make it but I don't have tek engrams...

I'm not at the pc to test it though but why do they make these things so expensive to make?? I just want to do a damn boss fight to get the tek engrams.

Discussion Carno TLC Idea

Post image
145 Upvotes

Here is my idea for a possible Carno TLC.

MODEL: A newer model and textures, matching the new graphics. Even small changes to the model result in significant pattern changes.

WILD: It now appears in groups of two animals. It is a very territorial animal. Everything up to its own size is its target.

ABILITIES: A typical bite attack, a headbutt attack that produces high knockback and strong bleeding. A 180-degree turn (which can be used to perform quick evasion maneuvers). Similar to the Therizinosaurus, it can be leveled individually. Its horns change depending on what you level (more raw damage or more bleed damage).

So what do you think of it?

ASE Help with Removing Certain Dinos from Game Using INI File

2 Upvotes

Hoping someone can help with trying to configure INI settings on ASE Extinction to remove a few dino types. Friend and I just started a G-Portal server and I'm trying to make the Araneo and Pego go away (we both have arachnophobia and loathe the pego). I've been trying to find the command online to replace Araneo with nothing for example but after three attempts (along with a wild dino wipe on the server) the darn things keep hanging around. Can anyone spot what I'm doing wrong? These are the different versions I've tried in the GameUserSettings.ini file.

[/Script/ShooterGame.ShooterGameUserSettings]

NPCReplacements=(FromClassName="SpiderS_Character_BP_C",ToClassName="")

[/Script/ShooterGame.ShooterGameUserSettings]

NPCReplacements=(FromClassName="SpiderS_Character_BP_C",ToClassName=" ")

[/Script/ShooterGame.ShooterGameUserSettings]

NPCReplacements=(FromClassName="SpiderS_Character_BP_C", ToClassName="LanternBird_Character_BP_C") [Note, I don't want the Featherlight, just trying to break the araneo]

After each try, I did a cheat destroywilddinos command and that seemed to wipe the whole map, but I'm still looking at the Areneos. I'm guessing I have a missing space or something somewhere, but I cannot spot it. Any suggestions?

Thanks for any help people can give!

Discussion Reviving Primitive ARK Idea

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone I’ve been playing ARK a bit again lately, and I’ve been wondering.

If there was a PvP server where a lot of the high tech gear and certain creatures were removed to make the game more primitive, would you play on it?

What do you expect or want it to be like?
Would rates and stats be lower or higher?
What recipes and creatures would be removed?

I have been contemplating this myself lately and I’m thinking about trying it out on a server.
