How to disable Leedsichthys?
After disableing the Giganto and the Titano i have to disable the Leedsichthys on my private Server, too.
I cant use my Flyers, cause they dont have any breath after 5 meters of flying and so I want to get relative save by raft... whitch is rediculous impossible with Leedsichthys.
But i need the right line for my game.ini.

Can anyone help me?

Hi,
Open :
steamapps\common\ARK\ShooterGame\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor
Open the game.ini file. After [/script/shootergame.shootergamemode], Add :
NPCReplacements=(FromClassName="Leedsichthys_Character_BP_C",ToClassName="Trilobite_Character_C")
and all of those stupid game killer fish of hell will change to nice trilobites ;) (living ones will still be here, just do a console command "DestroyWildDinos" to reset all living wild dinos.)

You're my hero. Thanks a lot!

You're welcome. Hope they will change this nonsense update soon.

I've added this line too, just in case... To nerf those silly behemoth raft killer stupid fishes... Add this line just under the previous one :
DinoClassDamageMultipliers=(ClassName="Leedsichthys_Character_BP_C",Multiplier=0.001)
They should be as dangerous as dodos now.

Mod only changes new tames, not old ones, so you have to go about breeding new lines.
CaraCara Apr 1, 2017 @ 3:27pm 
Yes, this awesome mod only works for new tames sadly. Still awesome ;)

I know this is necro, but just have to say thanks, my sp game leeds are fustrated not being able to hurt my raft...lol. playing on center I had 5 of them on me at once; this adjustment means I can sail the seven seas again...lol

Another alternative for those who are interested:

http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=902174450

This mod adds a new variant of the leedy that doesn't attack rafts. If you use this config code:

NPCReplacements=(FromClassName="Leedsichthys_Character_BP_C",ToClassName="King_Leedsichthys_Character_BP_C")

You can turn every leedy on the map into the mod one. That way they'll still be there, still be powerful (and even tamable too, if you wish), but won't attack rafts.

On my game they still spawn. I have put the code under the correct header. And have tried to DestoryWildDinos. But they still spawn around the map. Any Help?

Any active mod maybe ? I haven't played for a while... The replacement worked for me, maybe some update broke that code ?

What about adding this code to a Linux based server, is it almost the same file path? I did find the "Game.ini" file by following that path, only instead of "WindowsNoEditor", it was just "LinuxServer" at the end of the path. although when i opened the file there was nothing in it, so i added the code, and am about to test it.
