ARK 7th Anniversary Event

[Bandit439 0]

With the ARK Anniversary event announced yesterday, they have said to use activeevent=ark7th to begin the event on unofficial servers.  From the advanced launch parameters menu I have selected "Birthday(Anniversary Event)" and ensured all my servers are updated with the latest released patch but none of the event colors seem to be active.  Am I missing a step or is it possible the Birthday(Anniversary Event) toggle is activating an older version of the event and not "ark7th"?

Here is some info about events for Ark. https://survivalservers.com/wiki/index.php?title=ARK:_Survival_Evolved_Advanced_Configuration#Events

I appreciate the response and have activated the event from the advanced launch parameters as described in the link you shared but the event is not functioning as it should so I'm wondering if there is some update needed on your end to ensure the checkbox is adding -activeevent=ark7th because in previous years this event was activated using -activeevent=birthday.

Again in the link I sent, there is a disclaimer at the bottom. Im not sure if any events are actually active by the developers at the moment.

Well the event ends tomorrow so would probably be pointless to look into it at this point but the root issue is that Wild Card is not consistently using the same event names year after year so maybe it would be better if there was a box we could just enter the active event name into instead of the checkboxes.
