Firstly I forgot to show the map marker mention at 4:12, apologies and here is a link to am image that shows it. imgur.com/a/mSgDTMo Also, let me know what your Single player server settings are?
@Torbjorn Leraand If you are playing Ark Mobile which it sounds like you are, you are unable to do what i show in the video. Ark mobile is a completely different version of the game as well has less features than Ark on console.
This is very good explanation! I usually just tick the "Single Player Settings" and adjust the slider to my liking, not knowing that they are actually multiplied and make my game easy. Thank you
i have always wanted to play all the way through ark and get into breeding and have fun, but have never had the time to do all of it with these settings i can now finally fully enjoy this game, thank you so much
Thank you so so much. My first day playing Ark was terrible. I joined a PVP server without even thinking. Got killed so many times, given a disease and base taken over in one day so now I would like to just give it without all that. lol
Yes, I would recommend you to play single player, or host with your friends; but remain in an environment where you only have to focus on learning the game and after that you can add pvp or any extra you want . This game has a huge learning curve, keep that in mind.
Finally someone that doesnt lose people on endless rants! You are clear and concise! Thank you so much for this great tutorial! Instant sub! You deserve so many more subscribers!
@@Ninjakiller560 It sure did! It was a disaster haha And then you fixed it for me. Hey say, is there a way to have the chance to pick back up structures permanently, instead of demolish them?
No through these settings here, to achieve what you want to do, you need to access the gameusersettings.ini. Now if you are on console then you will need your own paid server from Nitrado for example. However if you are on PC singleplayer, you can open your game files and edit the setting to allow you to pick them up whenever rather than destroy them.
@@Ninjakiller560 Thank you so much for the info! I am in PlayStation and right now I dont think I want to mess with Nitrado lol So I better plan well what I want to build to I avoid wasting too many mats. Thanks again, Killer! 😊
Thank you! That clears up a lot of confusion from the descriptions in the UI, created some awesome death scenarios for my character - like being one hit killed by a lvl 10 dodo, 😂 but now, I can enjoy the game, so, again, thank you for a well explained simple guide to these settings.
Omg thank you soooo much!! This really helped. Thank you for explaining things so I understand what it is I'm doing and what I wanted to do. This will make my game so much better!!!.
Thank you for taking the time to make this. I just started Ark, don't have a heck of a lot of time to play, but would like to have the best single player experience that doesn't eat up way more time in the day than I can allot.
Thank you so much for this, I kept making it so dinosaurs and players wouldn't looses any food at all but then I tried to tame them and I didnt work and I realised that they need to starve
Thanks for making this video brotha, but I had no idea what the hell member of the Facebook Ark group pages were talking about, but thank to this video, I now know what they are talking about.
Thanks for the video, been playing on and off the single player mode only.... Didn't know you could change the night settings as this was the biggest frustration for me. Esp at lower levels. I wanted to play the game as the developers set it. and now know how people have leveled really quickly and have t rex farms. Its cheating really but that night cycle was way to long.
Yea but as I mentioned for people in situations it is quite useful cause we don't have a lot of time to play. Besides you do not have to use them, as in your opinion they op but to others like me it is not. The advantage here is you see these do not work for you so theb you like cool now I know using this will ruin it for me so I'll dial the settings back.
I know im pretty late but i just got my first island Ascension with these settings!! My first ascension!! Edit: dang.. @Ninjakiller560 still looks at his old comments.. what a LEGEND
Only if you are on PC, if you are on console the only setting you can edit is how many structures can placed on a platform saddle, which is located at the bottom of the advanced tab.
Thank you so much for this video! Learned a lot. Can I ask you one more thing? Me and my friend would like to casually play ark but still have a challenge. We wont meddle with imprinting or breedings, nor taming an army of rexes. I know that difficulty also affect bosses level so which difficulty level and dino's stats you think could be good to try a boss(Broodmother) with just a pair of big dinos but still not being op against all the wildlife? I'm desperate so I'll accept any kind of answer
Well difficulty wise, assuming you are playing on a non dedicated console world. The highest difficulty you can achieve is 150 as mentioned im the video. If that is the case then leaving creatures at there offical stats would provide a good challenge.
That is odd, You would expect the xbox series X to not crash given it is more powerful than the og xbox one which is what Im running and tested these settings on. Werid.
@@Ninjakiller560 it didn’t crash because of the settings, it dashboarded whilst putting them in,still in menu lol, don’t think it’s a performance problem. Was just pissed because it didn’t save so had to put them back in again lol
Hey ninja, really helpful video after playing for abit on ark eternal, almost all the blueprints are showing up and has been a big hassle to scroll down to my inventory items. Could you please tell me what i should do? Thank you soso much dude
You would need to be on pc to edit the gameusersettings.ini file, or if you are on console, you would need a dedicated server to since the console can not edit the game files. I have a guide on that channel that goes in more depth :)
You will need access to your game files, more specifically your game.ini and then individually edit the stacking amount. If you are on pc you just need to search for the game.ini, add the codes in and save it. I have a video on that on the Channel. If you are on console you will need a paid server like Nitrado. ruclips.net/video/qt8cdUxZ5bU/видео.html
This is amazing! I have one question tho. When i make a non dedicated server, over the server name and admin code it has a checkbox with "Private fight" or something like that (i translated it from my home language so idk precisely what it is). What do i do with it? What are the differences? I'll probably be playing with some few other friends, like 2 or 3.
So the Private match as it is called basically makes your world not appear in the server browser in the Join Ark section. Therefore this will prevent random people finding your world, joining and causing trouble. So the only way players could join then is by inviting them. However some players have noted that setting their Non dedicated world to private prevents their friends from joining even if they get invited. So it ideally best to leave it open so your friends can join no issues and if a random joins just kick them.
If you are on old Gen console like xbox one or ps4 it will look lame. Only when on new gen ie ps5 or xbox series x or PC can you get good graphics. So overall depending on what console you play on dicates the graphics you are stuck with.
That is werid it is not saving. Would you mind running me through what you are doing ie are you making the changes then starting your single player world or what? Want to hang you resolve this issue
i jus came off of a video of yours frm a year ago talking abt max lvl dinos , is the island now 150 max aswell because in your other video the max for the island was like 120 or smtn
It is 150 now max for all story maps if you follow this vid. The reason they spawned lower than 150 was due to a bug which wildcard fixed a month before this vid.
That is normal, see what this setting does is simply increase the max level they can spawn at. Does not mean all creatures you find will be level 150. By default the minimum level you will find is 5 and the max is 150. This is because creature levels come in a range. The only way to adjust/remove the range is on pc or a paid sever like nitrado where you use a level equaliser code. Where you individually edit each creature spawn location. To make the min level say 200 and max 300.
That is odd as that should not be happening. I unfortunately don't have a fix at a current time as this is the first im hearing it. All I can assume is it is a bug, I will do further research and if I find anything I'll let you know.
You would need access to a paid sever like Nitrado, as the only way to edit crafting speed is by accessing the game.ini which console can not do on SP.
That does not make sense, by default there is a host barrier of 250 meters, preventing the second player from running away from the host. My first thought would be the host barrer is glitchy on Aberration but if you never had it before then I have no idea.
Firstly I forgot to show the map marker mention at 4:12, apologies and here is a link to am image that shows it. imgur.com/a/mSgDTMo

This guy saved me from so much trouble
Thank a ton I am new and did not know how to make a not to easy or too hard set up

Imagine thinking time spent observing = difficulty lmao
You ppl ate insane for watching dinos for hours on end
So helpful I didn’t know how to get day light cycle goin
Thanks a lot, I hope you're winning son

Thank you cause I had 3 times damage resistance on my player and I thought that would make me more Tanky but I was wrong

Btw most of the settings he put are still pretty OP
Yea but as I mentioned for people in situations it is quite useful cause we don't have a lot of time to play.

We should play sometime if I still play this
Thanks for the settings
Very helpful thank you 😊
This is great, thank you!
First time thank you 😄
Can I change my setting mid game? Or will this delete my world? Great video btw
You can change you settings whenever you like, it won't delete your progress.
Thank you man!!
Thanks so much me n my friend's were stuck on how to make out Dino's tame faster 😊
I know im pretty late but i just got my first island Ascension with these settings!! My first ascension!!
Edit: dang.. @Ninjakiller560 still looks at his old comments.. what a LEGEND
Really nice settings dude! Gonna start my long term survival with these😃
Thank youuuu , it was so hard finding someone who actually explained the menu ^^
Thank you so much I’ll subscribe
I just played the island with these settings and it’s great
I found out I can tame things now! I’m going hunting
I tamed a ton of animals
Thanks again
But how to get rid of the out of range note. My 2 screen player cannot go far from me on single player.
You can not remove it, the only way to experience no tether is to play on a dedicated server
Are you able to enter your own setting numbers for Xbox if so how? It only lets me slide the bar and I can’t reach most settings lvls you have
Just need to select the box and then type on the number.
Thank you sir!
This rlly helped alot
Glad to hear it.
Thanks brother 👍
Is there a video on disabling structure collision? Trying to build on a hill
your answer in the 5min mark buddy
Thank you very much for taking the time to explain this all. Do you know how to increase the dino spawn rate on single player xbox?
Dino count setting, increase it above on. Start the world, dino wipe and you are good
dis youtouber safd mei life in ark dhank you sooooo much
Is this a way to turn off or turn up the structures limit in a area on single player?
Only if you are on PC, if you are on console the only setting you can edit is how many structures can placed on a platform saddle, which is located at the bottom of the advanced tab.
Thanks mate :)
Is there a way to increase the stack size in singleplayer i cannot find how to do it
Only if you are running the game on pc, since you need to edit the game files.
Great info, definietly learned something. But these settings make your dinos a little op. Might want to tune that.
Well for me it great as end of the day I get tops 30 mins to play Ark a day (free time that is).
So anything to make it not grinding for me I'll take.
@@Ninjakiller560 got it
Thank u ur the best
I know I'm a bit late but is there a way to get all engrams without disabling achievements on ps4
Cheats do not disable achievements, but in terms of sp you need cheats to get all engrams
Ok thanks you.
Just a question, do you know if you can change the crafting speed per lvl?
Yes you can but you can only do it if you are on PC or having a paid server. As in order to alter it you need access to the game files sadly..

To be honset no Idea, I do not play with any mods except awesome spyglass. So not sure what advice i can give you.
Question..how do I set the single player so I can pick up building items and not have destroy and then create again?
You would need to be on pc to edit the gameusersettings.ini file, or if you are on console, you would need a dedicated server to since the console can not edit the game files.
