Custom Ragnarok Spawn Help
So I have been playing single player on Ragnarok and I am wondering how I can spice up my experience by adding in some of the newer dinos. I want to add in spawns for both some of the aberration and extinction dinos, but have no idea where to even start. I have read through a couple of forums on this and haven't seen anyone do both aberration and extinction so I don't want to screw up my map with a stupid mistake. If anyone can help that would be great. This is ideally what I want to accomplish.
Gacha spawn around the north western mountains
Gasbag spawn in the mountains just north of the desert
Velonasaur spawn in the south east part of desert
Snow owl to spawn in the snowy mountains
managarmr to spawn in the north eastern snowy mountains
Basilisk to spawn in the swamp
bulb dog to spawn in viking bay
feather light to spawn in the northern beaches
glowtail to spawn in the southern beaches
karkinos to spawn in the river in between the mountains
ravagers to spawn in the black wyvern area
roll rats to spawn in the red woods
shinehorn in the red woods
I want all of these to be rare so I am not running into them more than the normal dinos. And if it would be possible I would also like to just add a couple spawns for rock drake eggs or replace a couple wyvern egg spawns with them. I am not sure which would be easier. Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks

I can suggest ull use the cross aberration mod it works fine with no major bugs and you can custom it. The problame with adding ext dino is that u also need the ext itmes like saddles. and even if u did add them it will be primi saddles, i have not found a way that give ext loot yet mybe there is one. U can enable all engrams or use a mod or even beter a plugin to enable it with more control. Still waiting for a good mod that does cross ext i think the cross aberration dev might be working on one not sure but i hope he is becouse he did realy good job on his other mods

https://ark.gamepedia.com/Creature_IDs - all dinos list
https://ark.gamepedia.com/Spawn_Entries - names of areas
https://beaconapp.cc/ - tool to edit beacons

Example how to add few dinos to some area;
ConfigAddNPCSpawnEntriesContainer=(NPCSpawnEntriesContainerClassString="DinoSpawnEntriesGrassland_C",NPCSpawnEntries=((AnEntryName="MegaloSpawner",EntryWeight=0.033,NPCsToSpawnStrings=("Megalosaurus_Character_BP_Mega_C")),(AnEntryName="FWSpawner",EntryWeight=0.002,NPCsToSpawnStrings=("Wyvern_Character_BP_Fire_C")),(AnEntryName="Mantis",EntryWeight=0.04,NPCsToSpawnStrings=("Mantis_Character_BP_C")),(AnEntryName="LWSpawner",EntryWeight=0.002,NPCsToSpawnStrings=("Wyvern_Character_BP_Lightning_C")),(AnEntryName="PWSpawner",EntryWeight=0.002,NPCsToSpawnStrings=("Wyvern_Character_BP_Poison_C"))),NPCSpawnLimits=((NPCClassString="Megalosaurus_Character_BP_Mega_C",MaxPercentageOfDesiredNumToAllow=0.1),(NPCClassString="Wyvern_Character_BP_Fire_C",MaxPercentageOfDesiredNumToAllow=0.05),(NPCClassString="Mantis_Character_BP_C",MaxPercentageOfDesiredNumToAllow=0.1),(NPCClassString="Wyvern_Character_BP_Lightning_C",MaxPercentageOfDesiredNumToAllow=0.05),(NPCClassString="Wyvern_Character_BP_Poison_C",MaxPercentageOfDesiredNumToAllow=0.05)))

Each area must go in its own line !

You cannot spawn fertilized Rock Drake eggs without a mod, you will need something like this;

You can additionally control any dino spawn if you don't like default rates via Game.ini....example;
DinoSpawnWeightMultipliers=(DinoNameTag="Lightbug",SpawnWeightMultiplier=0.05,OverrideSpawnLimitPercentage=True,SpawnLimitPercentage=0.05)

You can also use one of many "Engram unlock" mods to get access to all items, saddles etc...something like this;
