A FIX for spawning in ocean with no map - Singleplayer

[Akilaes]

Note this fix worked for me and a few others but may not work for all.

What I noticed was that the last patch deleted the Servergrid (the map) files in the main Shootergame folder. reinstalling wont work because the game is applying the patch with no servergrid. Having back up's of all that I just replaced the two files and I can play Singleplayer and all my progress is still there. You can get copys of the Atlas map editor and it comes with the files you need.

The Grid Editor can found here

1. Click on the 1st link to github. When it loads on the top middle/right of the page there will be a green button that says "Code" on it.
2. Click on the green button and then Download ZIP. The ZIP will save in your downloads folder by default.
3. Go to your downloads folder and open the ZIP.
4. Inside the ZIP is a folder called "ServerGridEditor-master" move that folder to your desktop.
5. Inside the "ServerGridEditor-master" you will find an application called "ServerGridEditor" run the program.
6. It will have two options "Create Project" or "Load Project" click on "load Project" There will be a couple of premade maps but you want to load the servergrid.
7. Once loaded on the top left click "export" then "All" to the "export" folder. (Wait for the program to say success)
8. Go to the export folder it can be found in the "ServerGridEditor-master" folder. There should be 3 files now all you need is the Servergrid folder and jason. Disregard the server only jason
9. Cut and paste the two files called "Servergrid" into the the games Shootergame base folder.
10. Load the game and single player should work.

Note: I previously said to use the servergrid11x11. I have been told that that map is incomplete. For those of you that used the 11x11 one just redo it with the plain "Servergrid" project and replace the files.

I really enjoy this game and I am just trying to help others that enjoy it get back into playing. So if it works for you please let others know so they can get back into it too. I understand it shouldn't be up to us to fix the game. But I want to play it and if I have to I will. Atlas singleplayer with the right mods and Game.ini edits is a one of a kind game that is leagues better than anything out there.

Are Mods not edits "fixing" the base game to better suit you anyways?

I PERSONALLY THINK THEY SHOULD GET OFF THEIR ASSES AND FIX IT .. I COULD, BUT IT NOT THE WAY TO DO THING AND IT IS THEIR GAME THAT THEY F_CK UP.

Hello,
in the wiki : ServerGrid/*.jpg (Map images for display)

you must find in ServerGridEditor-master a folder named "ServerGrid" with all the *.jpg of the map (each square and the global map) ant copy-paste in the new folder servergrid in the folder in shootergame.

It works, Spawn region is not available, game crashes on exit but it saves. I'm glad you were able to share this with the community.

[enemyilaf]

Akilaes, Thanks for sharing this information. It worked for my game. I still need to add the .jpg files, but at least I can play the game.

Any communication from Grapeshot on this problem? If you can repair the game, why can,t the " professionals" ? What does this tell you? Many questions.

[Canadian_Hoser]

I agree with other poster,THEY Grapeshot SHOULD care about their game and fix all the issues.

NOBODY should have to jump through hoops to play the game and it is not like anyone is playing for free,we all bought and paid for this game that they seemingly NEVER polish.

Rather than FIX the game every so often they reboot and change stuff around because their only concern is trying to sell more broken copies.

The worst developer ever in the history of gaming and most by now already know it.
Steam should have forced them to give everyone's money back,except Valve wants their 25% cut so will NEVER come to the aid of the consumer unless it is by the law forced to.

Theres a reason I've only played 6 hours of this pile of garbage Ark Pirate Re-Skin.

im still waiting i gave up on them hoping for a response i have asked them whats up, and so did my girl and they said they plan on adding tradewinds to single player. but they have ignored any thing i said to them. but yet here we are month + later and nothing. make me feel they dont care about anybody but what we can pay them. now that they got money and people getting the game all they care about is the MMO and have said screw the people that want to play single player. i mean i have yet to see them respond or comment to a single post on here.. and its been days and YOU ALL KNOW they read these .. i mean its about there game... i just think they could give a ♥♥♥♥ less... maybe if some one took all the money they made till they fixed it they would care.

I fixed the phenomenon that only the sea came out by following it, but there is still a black phenomenon when I press tap key and 'M' to look at the map. I wonder if this is accurate or if there was a mistake in my order.
