Giganotosaurus still spawns after added config


Recommended Posts

Hello,

I made some changes to the server config 

 

Dinosaur Spawn Configuration

 

Giganotosaurus   spawn multiplier 0.0 and  Spawn Percentage 0

 

 

but the Giganotosaurus is still spawning in the map the Center.

 

Is this a BUG or is my config not setup proppery.

 

Who knows.

Hi, I also had this problem, and after searching found that you need to put this line:

 

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

 

under the heading at the top of you Game.ini file.  You will have to FTP in to do it.  AND I've had trouble with the Game.ini file and the Gameuser.ini files overwriting on restarts so that they often lose the changes I've made, you will need to check them often.

 

Ryan or anyone else have any thoughts on the fact that the changes don't seem to stay?  Is it just the nature of the constant patching?

 

Thanks!

Ealine

Dont forget you ALSO have to do a DestroyWildDino's command after you restart the server with that command.  Or there is another command you can do where you kill just any spawned Gigas but I dont know it off the top of my head.   If you search reddit in the ark subreddit I made some posts as have other people where someone gave us the exact commands.

1 ,  admincheat destroywilddinos, wait for connection loss ...

2 , Wait for like 6-10 minutes untill connection is restored

3 , Stop server, when stopped, connect with FTP and :

 add this line totally @ the bottom of your game.ini 

 
DinoSpawnWeightMultipliers=(DinoNameTag="Giganotosaurus",SpawnWeightMultiplier=0,OverrideSpawnLimitPercentage=True,SpawnLimitPercentage=0)
 
 
4 , Save file!!!

5 , Start server.

 

6 , Have fun! :)
