Summer Bash Extension Issues
Hey, so not sure if this is a bug or what, but in spite of the Summer Bash Event being extended, I can't make any of the items now (The recipes don't even show up in my game.)

Is anyone else having this issue? Also does anyone have any idea why it's happening or know of a fix? It's not the end of the world if I can't play it now but as I've not been able to play ARK again until recently, I'd like to at least try to get it working, or if nothing else, understand it.

Thanks in advance!

Just to check, are you using a Cooking Pot? They only seem to appear specifically in those. Campfires and Industrial Cookers don't show them.

I for one and glad the event is off, my single player world can now look more natural without rainbows throwing up on wild dinosaurs.

I dunno, all the bright colours gave me some inspiration on how to paint my spinosaurus.

More natural? You know something that no scientist knows?

Oh I see how it is, paint you Spino and leave your Yuty bland and boring

I know that sharks in OUR world aren't hot pink and florescent green... So why would a Megalodon be?

Then you haven't seen a red tail shark. They're navy blue with bright orange fins. ;)

Also the Yuty wasn't my dinosaur and I don't particularly like them to begin with, so I left that alone.

I do have a candy pink tek rex named Pinkiedie though! :D

Because they aren't sharks? Nobody knows what dinosaurs looked like. Some scientists think they could have been colorful, some don't.

I don't know, so it could be natural either way. So I will take the colorful ones myself.

That's your choice, I on the other hand find it very immersion breaking when I see a McDonalds colored Sarco wandering the beaches,

On single player you can force any event to be active.

In this case use the launch option of ' -ActiveEvent=SummerBash' without the quotes.

Many youtubes are available about how to do this.

@Kønachibi Yes. I have S+ but I specifically made a regular cooking pot for this. Also, your rainbow Spino is AWESOME! I love spinos and this is such a pretty paint job~ I wish I could do just the fin/sail for my own spinos (I like rainbows), but I'm not very good at creating this sort of thing. xD

@azurecrayon Thank you for letting me know! I'm glad I'm not the only one.

@TyranntX Hey, that's cool, but please keep in mind I wasn't asking how anyone felt about it, just what happened to it. I respect everyone's preferences, I just was wondering why they announced an extension yet it disappeared, and now I know. Also btw, nature likes to mess with us and throw random colours in sometimes. I mean Goblin Sharks range from pink to purple, and many animals in tropical areas come in a variety of colours. Just google 'pink shark real' and you'll see pink sharks and belugas. It's technically a type of albinoism in the belugas though, I believe.

immersion breaking... in a dinosaur game...with power armor and plasma weapons and things many times the size they should be, you'd also have more of a point about tech dinos wondering around, since that is forced on everyone event or no event, a bright blue saco to me still seems less immersion breaking that a cyber stego you still tame with berries

Cyber creatures can be explained by the lore of the game, Off colored wild dinosaurs cannot
