Ryan Pennington 359 Report post Posted July 22, 2015 This is an outdated topic. We have implemented an easy to use mod install tool into our control panel which no longer requires this guide to be followed. For this tutorial I will be installing a new map called Ark Reborn. Client-side Setup Open ARK: Survival Evolved Click on the Host / Local button From the Host / Local page, click Get Mods Find Ark Reborn v2 and Subscribe You now have the mod installed client-side All set, you are now able to join ARK: Survival Evolved servers with the Ark Reborn custom mod content from Steam Workshop. Server-side Setup Stop your game server from the control panel Open up your FTP client and navigate to the root directory. For a tutorial on how to use FTP, click here. Navigate to the /ShooterGame/Content/Mods folder Upload the Ark Reborn folder (which is named 485964701) (from client setup steps) here (the entire folder, not just the contents) Navigate back to the Survival Servers control panel Enable custom launch parameters (if you haven't already) and copy the default from the info box (the little 'i' icon next to the custom launch parameters Paste this into a Notepad and modify like such Paste the new launch parameter line in the control panel Press the green Update & Restart button Your ARK: Survival Evolved server is now set to play Ark Reborn.

LuBu79 1 Report post Posted July 28, 2015 Yea, I wasn't blaming you guys for it. It was our choice to try it, however I figured as much that the map was broken. I returned back to the basic map. Thank you for trying. Ryan Pennington 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scubasteve 0 Report post Posted August 17, 2015 This whole mod issue is starting to get a little frustrating. From what I have been reading, if you are hosting your own server the mods are working just fine. Also, other server providers have the problem fixed. It would be nice if someone form Survival Servers would give us some concrete answers. I have already wiped my server and lost all of my players. Modding and having complete control of the server is the only reason I am paying for this. Running half a dozen mods one day, and having them all not function the next seem like a priority. I Realize that Wildcard has not really thought out remote access and the fault is not all on your server provider. I would just like to know if this issue is anywhere near being dealt with or if I need to try privately hosting or just give up on Ark all together. I don't have much more hair left to pull out...

Ryan Pennington 359 Report post Posted August 17, 2015 There's no issues with our hosting setup, you can and have always been able to install mods on your own, this guide is just outdated as I have stated above. For advanced manipulation of your server, you have to go out and read documentation from Steam guides and some of the mod developers. We have tutorials on our end, but sometimes it takes us a few days to get it public (on the forums or wherever else) due to the constant changing of things from ARK's end. But yeah, you've always had access to FTP to upload the mods and access to your custom launch params to launch mod(s) without any intervention from us or any changes on our end. Check here for the most updated method to install mods, I will update this topic soon. Scubasteve 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drakar 0 Report post Posted September 15, 2015 Is there another guide or something, cause I can't figure out how to set up mods what so ever. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Pennington 359 Report post Posted September 15, 2015 You put the mod ID there. Mod must be updated to the latest version of ARK. Which mod are you trying to install and do you have other mods or maps tied into that? For a single mod, it's pretty simple. Just put the mod ID in the input box there and update & restart.
