Modify stats of specific Dinos
Ok. Before all the copy paste responses show up let me make something clear:
I am not referring to any of the following commands:
PerLevelStatsMultiplier_DinoWild[0]=1.0
PerLevelStatsMultiplier_DinoTamed[0]=1.0
PerLevelStatsMultiplier_DinoTamed_Add[0 =1.0
PerLevelStatsMultiplier_DinoTamed_Affinity[0]=1.0
Nor am I referring to:
TamedDinoClassResistanceMultipliers=
DinoClassResistanceMultipliers=
TamedDinoClassDamageMultipliers=
DinoClassDamageMultipliers=
^I know how to use all these ini commands and do so in abundance for my server. Do not bother mentioning them or just linking the official wiki page on Server Configuration which is, like many of the other pages, substantially out of date.

What I would like to know, is how do I modify the stats of a specific entity, a specific dino character?
I've repeatedly seen server owners mention doing such things, from reducing the stamina of Quetz & Wyvern to specifically tailor their balance to the server, or those who've added damage values to Diplodocus without resorting to a mod that overrides them with modded a version.

How does one do this, exactly? Does it have specific ini commands to do this(highly doubtful), or does it require modifying the blueprints, the core files on a dino-by-dino basis, and uploading those modified files to your server? If it is the latter, are there means to do so if you do not have the ADK/UE4 currently installed? How exactly does it affect players using the server?

I would greatly appreciate any help from anyone who has personally done this, or knows that a server they frequent has.

PerLevelStatsMultiplier_DinoTamedQuetz_Character_BP_C[7]=1.5

into my Game.ini file and it works. This gives my tamed Quetzals more in weight when I level them up. So instead of getting 58 it now gets 87 weight per level up. Cheers for the info in this Thread.

You can also alter via the ini files for specific dino types yes the base(as the multipliers you see in game and with the above settings are just modifiers to a base value you dont normally see).

What do you mean, exactly? What line of code/ini setting affects the base stats on a specific dino class?
The only ini setting I know of that affect the base stats of a specific class, and don't, as you mention, apply to something more-or-less intangible, is the following:

PlayerBaseStatMultipliers[0]=1.0
PlayerBaseStatMultipliers[1]=1.0
PlayerBaseStatMultipliers[2]=1.0
PlayerBaseStatMultipliers[3]=1.0
PlayerBaseStatMultipliers[4]=1.0
PlayerBaseStatMultipliers[5]=1.0
PlayerBaseStatMultipliers[6]=1.0
PlayerBaseStatMultipliers[7]=1.0
PlayerBaseStatMultipliers[8]=1.0
PlayerBaseStatMultipliers[9]=1.0
PlayerBaseStatMultipliers[10]=1.0
PlayerBaseStatMultipliers[11]=1.0
^^^ These lines affect the base stats of players, if I put 9, for movement speed, at a value lower then 1.0 players at 100% movement speed move slower. Likewise it can modify your starting HP, oxygen etc.

Is there a line of code that does this but works on specific creatures?

Are you refering to these following lines of codes but altered versions of them?
DinoClassResistanceMultipliers=(ClassName="<classname>",Multiplier=<multiplier>)
TamedDinoClassResistanceMultipliers=(ClassName="<classname>",Multiplier=<multiplier>)

If so, are they modified to look as follows?
;

DinoClassBaseStatMultipliers[<attribute>]=(ClassName="<classname>",Multiplier=<multiplier>)
TamedDinoBaseStatMultipliers[<attribute>]=(ClassName="<classname>",Multiplier=<multiplier>)

I'd really like to know.

Does anyone know how to do what @retsam1 is refering to? Their post is rather vague and obscure in meaning...
I have tried all the following, inspired from retsam1's post, to no avail whatsoever;

DinoClassBaseHealthMultipliers=(ClassName="Rex_Character_BP_C",Multiplier=2.0)
TamedDinoClassBaseHealthMultipliers=(ClassName="Rex_Character_BP_C",Multiplier=2.0)
DinoBaseStatMultipliers[0]=2.0
DinoBaseStatMultipliers[0]=(ClassName="Rex_Character_BP_C",Multiplier=2.0)
TamedDinoBaseStatMultipliers[0]=2.0
ClassBaseStatMultipliers[0]=(ClassName="Rex_Character_BP_C",Multiplier=2.0)
TamedClassBaseStatMultipliers[0]=(ClassName="Rex_Character_BP_C",Multiplier=2.0)

ClassBaseStatMultiplier[0]=(ClassName="Rex_Character_BP_C",Multiplier=2.0)
TamedClassBaseStatMultiplier[0]=(ClassName="Rex_Character_BP_C",Multiplier=2.0)
DinoClassStatMultiplier[0]=(ClassName="Rex_Character_BP_C",Multiplier=2.0)
TamedDinoClassStatMultiplier[0]=(ClassName="Rex_Character_BP_C",Multiplier=2.0)
DinoClassBaseStatMultiplier[0]=(ClassName="Rex_Character_BP_C",Multiplier=2.0)
TamedDinoClassBaseStatMultiplier[0]=(ClassName="Rex_Character_BP_C",Multiplier=2.0)

Any help would be appreciated...

I'm not going to be of much help.... But while browsing the forums I am pretty sure that some time last year I saw someone post an example of this for a specific Dino....
OR
it was the code to add a certain dino as a spawn to the OP's map of choice...


Edit: Goodle search told me it's not possible atm without mods as no such code exists.

This post was necromance'd... like all my Ark posts end up...
I have the game uninstalled, so spending 15hrs redownloading to try that is not on the menu.

currently the only way i know of to modify a dino's stats is mods like 'upgrade my dino' and that's specific individuals, not the whole species.

Haven't played Ark in a while, so I have no clue if the line of

PerLevelStatsMultiplier_DinoTamedPtero_Character_BP_C[1]=2

Actually does anything.

it does not work i triedt to implement this with a pte test subject i checked if the refrence to the dino was correct which it was so i have no clue why it doesn't work i suppose its just really not possible i have personally decided to just buff all dino's carry weight for now

Figured xd

Hopefully Ark 2 gives users more control w/o needing to download a 400+ MB devkit that runs really slowly and can take a while to update xdddd
