PixArk Server Manager
PixArk Server Manager will be a great tool to control dedicated servers, something like Ark Server Manager.

They already responded to a request on their official forums and they have no plans..

Of course that they don't want because they will have to pay for this, but it help to solve a lot of problems with the dedicated servers and this servers will have a good support.

ASM is a JOKE! PixSM is even more worthless. It literall takes 85 typed letters to completely build a server! WTF do you need some stupid "tool" for to accomplish that?

A GUI that creates a random number FOR YOU isnt going to help you find that random number you like! And your having trouble sditing the settings for the server because there are no commnads to do it yet! You cant assume that because some moron posted a bunch of garbage from Ark that it pill wiork for PixArk! The same crap happened with Dark and light.... lots of ignorant assumptions because its a similar game. That doesnt make it the same. And it doesnt mean that the Devs have given access to the commands that DO exist.

What I meant was that having such a tool would make it easier for simply starting it up and altering settings (when and if they become available) because everything would be in one spot versus having to go to the different files to change settings or to have to add in code that a lot of people don't know how to do. It would simpily make it easier for more people to be able to set up their own servers. I've hosted ark servers both the manual way and with ASM and I prefer the ASM way better that way if my less computer savy boyfriend wants to change a setting its easier for him to do in ASM than to find the .ini files and change them that way. And I didn't assume that ASM would work for ark I was simpily curious and hopefull that the team who made ASM would be interested in making a similar thing for pixark. As for the random map seeds. There is a section of code that you can change the seed in the launch command so I tried it. However it obviously did not work and the devs haven't exactally been communicating with the community about what can and cant be done yet. There are some settings you can change as well so long as you know what code to type in so yea there are some commands. So get your toxic personality off of the forums if your going to make assumptions about me.

There are literally TWO FILES! And both are in the same location! ASM for building an initial Ark server has its perks. But its a waste of time and resources after that. It CAN NOT properly maange mods. It cant because Steam has terrible processes in place to save bandwidth and ASM cant work around that. And since PixArk has ZERO config process at this point, it would take 5x longer to build a server with "PSM" than it takes to do it manually. Especially considering the time it takes to travel to, dload, and install PSM. Building a server is PATHETIC easy! I build my 4th Ark 7 server CLUSTER in maybe 5 minutes. Configs took another 10. Granted I have years of background. But the point is that NO ONE had ever built a PArk server. Yet their are hundreds of sources for instructions. Most are absolute failures, but all of the important info is there. The trouble people ARE having with their server wouldnt be solved with check-boxes and a pretty background though. It takes those of us with a background to solve those issues!

And to your particular situation... don't let him near the server! The best insurance on the planet!! :p

the ASM Is tool for us not so handy with things. :D Also, it allowed to use program like Evolve to make things easier. Or, I have to use the Evolve to be able to host server. (Before you start about port-fowarding, it is not option. :( ) Just two files, sure, but after dozen of tries, still no working server. Tried dozen different guides. :D those who know what they are doing, ofc its easy, and no need for asm. It is for us who does not know what to do, and if something is wrong, what is going wrong. I do hope they do somekind of version, or someone else does it. :/

Your probem is that the guides you are following are garbage! The solutions to all problems in those guides have been solve. I have posted them all. I do understand your English is not good, and that barrier can make things hard. However all it takes is one person willing to translate to make it easy for everyone

Translating in to FInnish? World will freeze before that happens. :D I tried to find your posts, but either Im blind, but never found the correct one.

Also, if you know how these things go. If I need to use evolve, is there a way to configure the server to go trough that ip, not my real? (Since still, no portfowarding. :( )

What is the problem with port forwarding? And I know nothing about 'evolve', but I will look
