Inventory and saddles on tames disappearing...
Have a bug/glitch where I can't see anything in my inventory or saddles on dinos.
I can pick stuff up and weight goes higher but can't see nothing.

When transferring entire inventory to any other storage container or dino inventory - I can see the item slots getting filled, but still cant see or interact with any of the items... Me and my friend are experiencing the same bug, only solution so far is starting a new game, not even creating a new character fixes it.

Tried verifying game files, updating drivers and whatnot.. No luck whatsoever.

yup, a fix I found that worked the first time it happened was killing myself, creating a new character and using the admin commands to claim all nearby structures, tested it with my friend and it didn't work for him, so for a couple of hours I was able to see everything before it happened to me again. so I tried doing the same thing I did that fixed it for me the first time, but this time it didn't fix it.

So now I have no idea what to do to get it fixed for me or my friend. We tried playing with our settings to see if something there might trigger a fix to no avail. Now we're just waiting for a server in our region to launch to go play on there without having to worry about the stupid tethering or having our inventory disappear.

They really need to start puking out the patches for this game, because im not even gonna bother when this CAN happen, anytime anywhere, im simply not gonna torture myself into hating the game because i LOVE the game, but i dont need this kinda BS in my games.

Agreed. they are only focusing on server fixes while singleplayer is just left for dead.
We love ark and ASA is beautiful when it doesn't run like dog water or break every 10 minutes,

I even tried hosting our own server now that we are actually capable of doing so, just to find out my ISP blocks port forwarding. I am sure as hell not going to pay out my rear just to run a server with poor performance when I have a machine powerful enough to host servers without slugging performance in game.

Do you use mods ?

Yes, we use a mod that allows us to use cryopods. I don't know what I did to fix mine but I'm able to see everything again and luckily hasn't happened again, but for my friend the problem still persists

I got the same problem. I can't see any items in containers but weapons and tools. That is not only on a server, this is even on singleplayer. This happened to me after some Tribe-Right-Shenaningans, before it was fine. I don't know what to do. I reinstalled the game and it doesn't work.

Edit:
Interestingly it doesn't delete your save files when you deinstall the game. So I did that and update in 2 hours.

It could be one of the mods that you installed that's acting up. I found another solution by uninstalling every mod currently installed and it fixed it for us.

Also something I picked up with messing with Tribe settings is that it also could make stuff disappear. only method of fixing that is killing yourself and creating a new character.

Ok I fixed it.
I don't have mods btw.
I opened the folder where the game is located.
I deinstalled the game.
Then it won't delete every file.
So I deleted the file that remained et voila.

Which file was it? Because I am having the same issue. And it's just with the server that I'm in.

This just happened to me and I had to kill myself in game for everything to reappear.

I think it might have to do with the "Additions Ascended: Ceratosaurus" mod. We removed it and haven't experienced the bug again.

We are also having that issue on our server. But, only 3 of the 11 people that play on our server are having that issue. If it were a mod wouldn't it be affecting us all? Also, all three of them have verified their steam files and this is still happening to them. I see that some of you have been able to fix the issue by deleting files from your PC. Does anyone have the path for that and also, by deleting your game files doesn't that also delete your saved files, ie: your toon?
