for SP, you might need to make your ini files read only, if they are being overwritten.

Also, it is wise to make extra backups of your save games files/folders and also your ini files. I would treat this like a normal SP game and at least make an extra backup after important events, but some people backup after every play session.

There are a lot ot options, depending what kind of game you play. Single player, your own server, friend server, oficial server, etc...

For SP, i changed the Diffculty 1 to 2.71
the ark forum says on the island if i change it to this number i will got lvl 300 Wild creatures, but the highest what i found was 72lvl
so not even close to 200-300
so somethink i missed?

and ofc i used the command DestroyWildDinos already

i guess i found the issue.
the game resets always the diffculty, and the gameusersettings.ini aswell.
i tried both out changing the diffculty ingame and in the ini but after every start the game reset this.
but it resets just the diffculty the other settings are like before any ideas?

There was a change a while back to difficulty. Always check dates, remember this when there early access period.

Give me a few minutes and I'll copy and paste what you need. Just got to get to my computer.

Thanks, what about the MaxDifficulty=true/false? where the game use lvl 150 dinos do i need to activate that?
and do i need to write this lines just to the gameusersettings.ini or make it sense to write the lines to the game.ini aswell
