The command is -USEALLAVAILABLECORES and you put that in your ark launch options. That can be found by right clicking ark in steam, selecting properties and it should be visable.

Thankx man,much better....for curiosity,how much cores was using before??
it works for every game?

For that we'd have to know your CPU.

For me, this game only uses 4 cores of my 8 core CPU, even with the command entered.
Before the command, it still used 4 cores.

I have a 6 core chip 12 HT and it uses all 12 HT it is running at 18%-23% CPU
Memory 2.6 gig mem before launch 8.96 gig with game running

I am not using any commands to launch the game

-sm4 -d3d10 means you're forcing the game to run on DX10 with shader model and light effects of DX10 thats why the game looks crap, but i use it too, since it makes my framerate go from 15 (outside, no rain) to 40
better ♥♥♥♥♥♥ look than lagging in fights with dinos ;)

edit: most people cant see s*** at night with this launch options, you need to turn your gamma up a little and it should be fine

[Savage]

Ah thankx,i saw the sh** i did.Now is normal.In this server im playing dont have gamma correction otpion in console,nothing happen when you put it there.In true,im quit of this server (officialserver 353)dont have adms and two tribes have total domain there,and i have one lvl 66 character there ,becoz that i play yet there...and for complete the shi** ,dont have a way to move the char yet on obelisks. (sad history..)

put up the gamma of your screen itself or in windows that works too. im also on a server where gamma modification is disabled

Sorry to bring up an old post. But I get the same. Have a AMD FX 8300 8 core and cant seem to go above 4 even with the code. Any ideas?

Are all cores enabled on your actual pc?
