ARK: Survival Evolved Patch 210

Fixes

  •  Fixed Dinos getting detached and warped when riding on bronto platform saddles / rafts (i.e. disappearing Dinos), and some visual issues on clients
  • Fixed some bugs with painting (striped tigers, and some dye stacks not getting used), and loading painting templates is now about 10x faster
  • Reduced some network bandwidth usage
  • Fixed scale of structures on Rafts/Dino Platforms.

 

Here are the previous Patchnotes (209.3 & 209.4)

Dino Dossier: Kairuku

Common Name: Kairuku
Species: Kairuku Waitaki
Time: Late Paleocene
Diet: Piscivorous
Temperament: Friendly
Domestication
Tameable: Yes
Rideable: No
  • Wild: Kairuku Waitaki is an amazingly docile and friendly creature, everything but fish. Honestly, I'm not quite sure how Kairuku manages to stay populated across the island's colder climes, with the many predators stalking these frozen lands.
  • Domesticated: There is no reason to tame Kairuku for combat, since they are useless in a fight. Still, Kairuku are regularly tamed for their cuteness and friendly nature, and the fact that their bodies run extremely hot. Just standing near Kairuku can help keep a survivor warm through long, harsh nights on the icebergs.
  • Known Information: It is weak, and has only one small defensive trait: suspended in Kairuku blubber are small, dense particles that act as a light form or armor. Adding to Kairuku's problems, a clever survivor discovered that refining Kairuku blubber (concentrating the particles in it) can yield a natural form of he same polymer utilized in advanced tribes' manufacturing processes. This has caused many tribes to hunt Kairuku extensively, a practice colloquially known as "Kairu Clubbing".

ARK: Survival Evolved Patch 209.3 & 209.4

Fixes

  • Client-side Fix for invisible players on ladder
  • Dinos & Players can no longer get pushed/dragge through structures / fall-through when on moving platforms (Rafts/Bronto Saddles etc)
  • Player Data and Tribe Data are automatically backed-up and restored to avoid potential for corruption.
  • You can no longer upload and download Dragons via the Obelisk 😉
  • Raft collision improved (easier to climb up on), and jump rafts fixed
  • Slightly Floating characters on Rafts fixed

New Command

  • Admin “GiveColors #” command (w/o the “cheat” prefix), where # is quantity, to give yourself all color dyes, useful for testing the awesome new painting conversion tools (Link)

Tutorial: Add your own images to a sign, billboard or banner (ARK Paint)

We’re proud to present you our implementation of the ARK Painting Generator. With this tool you can paint your own images on any sign, board or banner.

Usage

Step 1

just open this tool, select which type of image you want to create and upload the image you want to add. Click on “send”.

Maximum file dimensions are: 1920 x 1920 pixel and 3MB

Step 2

Select the part of the image, which you want, or select nothing and continue by pressing “preview”

select

Step 3

If you think think it’s a good choice to print this image, click on download. You’ll receive a .PNT file, which you’ll have to upload to this folder:

Steam/steamapps/common/ARK/ShooterGame/Saved/MyPaintings/

Be aware – wooden billboards and signs have a brown background color – so every image will be darker than expected!

Step 4

Start ARK. Go to a server of your choice (or play in single player). Create a wooden billboard, sign or flag (depending on the type you’ve selected in step 1). Hit it with a brush. In the new opened window – click on “Load Paints From This Type”.

dye1

Now another window will open. If you’ve saved the file correctly you’ll see arksurvivalnet on the left side. Click on it and you see the required colors. If you’ve everything, just apply it and – congratulations – you’ve your own image applied to it

dye2

We’ll add features to limit the colors in a later update in the near future. Until then: stay tuned 🙂

New

ARK: Survival Evolved Patch 208.3

These are the changes of ARK: Survival Evolved’s Patch 208.3, grouped into categories for clarity. If not otherwise indicated, they’re quoted from the relevant Steam Thread.

Bugfixes

  • Fixed “Survival of the Fittest” Server crash
  • Fixed inaccuracy on clients display of “Repair” cost (where it would show tooltip for a Structure as needing repair but it wouldn’t actually need repair).

(Original Announcement on Steam)

Here are the patchnotes of the previous patch (208.1)

Dino Dossier: Arthropluera

Common Name: Arthropluera
Species: Arthropluera Felsanguis
Time: Early Permian
Diet: Carrion Feeder
Temperament: Aggressive
Domestication
Tameable: Yes
Rideable:

Yes

  • Wild: The fact that this creature exists is enough to give me nightmares. Like the island's other Arthropods, Arthropluera Felsanguis has become much larger than I might have believed possible. It's a very aggressive hunter, but prefers to eat meat after it has rotted for some time, and will voraciously seek out such delicacies.
  • Domesticated: Like most of the arthropods on the island, Arthropleura is simple minded and relatively easy to tame. It is an almost entirely military mount, useful mostly for attacking at a distance. Thanks to its unique defenses, whether hunting or warring, Arthropleura is generally safe from all but the largest of creatures.
  • Known Information: Arthropleura's blood has a very low pH, to the point that it can dissolve many materials. This acidic blood splashes back on anything that directly attacks it, weakening the durability of weapons and hurting attackers. Many creatures thusly refuse to prey on Arthropleura, fearing this unique defense. If that wasn't enough, Arthropleura also keeps a small reservoir of blood ready to spit at its prey.

Drops

  • Raw Meat
  • Chitin

Dino Dossier: Eurypterid

Common Name: Eurypterid
Species: Jaekelopterus Euryperus
Time: Silurian
Diet: Carnivore
Temperament: Aggressive if approached
Domestication
Tameable: No
Rideable: No
  • Wild: Found only in the deepest depths of the waters around the island, Eurypterids are dangerous and adaptable Arthropods. As likely to hunt as they are to scavenge, a Eurypterid rarely has difficulty finding food to keep itself nourished, even at the bottom of the ocean.

  • Domesticated: While Eurypterid are not intelligent enough to be tamed, This doesn't mean they are without utility for tribes. They are a wonderful source of Chitin, and their digestive tract often contain silica pearls. They sometimes even have incredibly rare Black Pearls used for manufacturing mysterious technologies, making them among the most valuable creatures on the island.

  • Known Information: A Eutryterid's threat does comes not directly from its raw strength. Instead, it combines a hard defensive exoskeleton with debilitating poison to powerful effect. The sting of a Eurypterid increases torpor while reducing stamina, quickly rendering its opponent unable to defend itself.
