Instructions on how to duplicate

[rosiepoe1999]

I'll post the instructions on how to duplicate. I want you to spread it as widely as possible so that the developers can urgently fix it.

Important note: I am publishing the original instructions, but it's important to clarify that your virtual machine needs to see your GPU, otherwise the game won't start. If you don't know how to set up a virtual machine, you shouldn't even try.

#-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Requirements:

1. Windows 8.1 OS or Windows 10 (might be not working with Win10 in some cases depends on the build)
2. VM Workstation Pro (also Windows 8.1 / 10 )
3. 2 different HDD drives (one for ASA main + OS and another one for VM ware with ASA + their OS)
4. 2 or more (if more need more VMs) DPS dino in game (with huge damage)
5. Significantly Weak WiFi connection on your computer (your internet speed must be slow and it has to be exactly wireless connection)
6. Turn on VPN on both VM and Main screen

**TO DO IT ON CONSOLES USE MULTIPLE CONSOLES CONNECTED TO SAME WIFI NETWORK**

What to do:

You will have to launch any ascension (need to open tek cave's doors) - that is why make sure you are in full control of server and can make sure NOBODY will be near the tek cave (rendering)
Prepare items you want to duplicate inside some object's (preferably some dino with large size) inventory (has to be enemy target and alive)
Locate the object with loot at the point of tek cave where parts of it will be within an area of tek cave and other part will be in area of game world (outside of cave)
Server has to be high ping (since its ASA it is usually always high ping)
Prepare 2 or more dinos (if more need more VMs) with good weight and damage (make sure not to have item collection disabled) **TO DO IT ON PVE USE WILD DINOS (KNOCKED OUT)**
Locate 1 at the point where it would be within an area of tek cave and the other one outside of tek cave (but yet be able to damage the object with loot)
All dinos must be from DIFFERENT tribes (could be alliance)
Launch ark both on VM and your PC (accounts can be different)
Join the server
Ride all dinos on both screens
Wait until timer is about to refresh (server saves)
At the same time as timer refreshes (server saves) you have to DISABLE WIFI in general (not just PC) and then VERY QUICK Turn it back and simultaneously kill the body with loot on BOTH dinos AT the same time
If you did all correct loot will be transferred into both inventories.

How to get loot from inventories safely (without losing them):
Get dinos far away from each other
Then get loot from 1st dino first, transfer it out (since transfers are disabled atm just duplicate stuff you can put in dedicated storage) and after that get loot from 2nd dino (you may keep it on server or transfer out once transfers open)

Note: it is possible to do ONLY on 1 Device and with same WiFi network!
