Ark: Survival Evolved - Remove Leedsichthys
Is there possibly a way i can disable the spawns of Leedsichthys and the alpha version of this stupid oversized fish on my private server with Nitrado? Possibly a command to go into the game.ini or something?

Will need a dino wipe afterwards to remove ones which have already spawned though...

Thankyou my good man. Hopefull this should work? Do you know it works for definite? Do you have a server with this command running?

For the leedy I actually use this mod:

http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=907962205

So I don't have that specific command on my server, no. However I have used that command to remove other creatures, substituting their dino IDs instead, and those work as they should.

The only one dino I've had issues with it not working is the pegomastax, and in that case replacing it with a dilo instead of leaving the second entry blank fixed that issue. So if it doesn't work, try replacing them with megalodons or ichthys instead.

Is it not just worth me using this mod? Will it change the leed and alpha leed not to target rafts?

You could use the mod if you wanted, yeah...your call bro^^ It works for me (certainly with the standard leedy anyway, not seen an alpha yet). Just remember to wipe dinos when you start the server after installing it, to replace current spawned leeds with the modded ones.

I added exactly this to my gameusersetting and game.ini folder successfully:

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


I loaded up the server and did a dino wipe and leeds are still spawning everywhere. Have i possibly done something wrong?

Don't put this in your GameUserSettings.ini, just place this in the Game.ini file only...located for most players in - C:\ProgramFiles(x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\ARK\ShooterGame\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor. If you have your own server then place this in the Game.ini for the server.

Make sure u place all of it for it to work...once your in game do a dino wipe and have fun at sea :steamhappy:

Done exactly this and it hasn't worked..

It may be helpful information that i'm running the extinction core mod?

I've never used the Extinction Core Mod...but I know that this got rid of the Leedsichthys for me so there must be somthing that is keeping it from working right for you.
