Ark won't stop crashing

[TisButAScratch]

I keep getting the message Assertion Failed InPos < = bytesNum{}

what can i do to fix this

[Aracanthus]

Post the crash file from the Logs folder in Ark.

[TisButAScratch]

I have no idea how

[Gran]

Please post the full crash log. You can find it under:

<install drive>:\Steam\steamapps\common\ARK\ShooterGame\Saved\Logs

open the newest file with the ".crashstack" ending, you can open them in the notepad, copy and paste here.

[Aracanthus]

Steam - SteamApps - common - ARK - ShooterGame - Saved - Logs the last date and time file that ends in .crashstack. Open with Notepad, paste it here.

Most probably a broken SP Savegame
Usually ARK does Backups of his singleplayergame on its own, check for it.
Depending of the map it's either there:
<install drive>:\Steam\steamapps\common\ARK\ShooterGame\Saved\SavedArksLocal

or there if it is Genesis:
<install drive>:\Steam\steamapps\common\ARK\ShooterGame\Saved\GenesisSavedArksLocal

For example if an TheIsland Savegame is corrupted.
You would look for TheIsland.ark and rename it to TheIsland_backup.ark
the you look for something similar to this: TheIsland_07.10.2017_14.12.35.ark
and rename it to TheIsland.ark

where TheIsland should be substituted with which ever map you played.

How can i tell if it's corrupted

[Gran]

Well i can tell by reading the Crash Log at where it is crashing. You can tell by crashing :-)

What do you mean

[Lordbufu]

He means, that the underlined parts of the log he posted, would indicate the save file somehow got corrupted.

[Gran]

Godspeed

Tell tell signs. Gran detailed what to do to load the back up, if you need more reference YouTube would be the best option since you have a visual reference to follow.

If it's the same problem, then the solution has already been posted by Gran. If your error isn't exactly like the one the OP posted, then get your error and make a new discussion, post the error, post mods being used, go to the top of steam, click help, click system information, copy the rip it gives you and post that as well.

Yes you have a Problem, well actually at least two. One is with ARK and one is with your reading skills. Cause given your Posting-history the Error we're trying to fix here is not even remotely similar to your Problem with transferring in/out a Ragnarok Map.
