Drag Weight Reduction & Constant Crafting Costs

Description
Made with LAN and single player in mind.

- Allows Gigantosaur, Titanosaur, Rock Elemental, Bronto, Diplodocus and Paracer onto boss arenas by setting the drag weight to 550.
- Crafting costs of items with higher quality is the same as for Primitive.
- Renamed the different quality tiers. (Removed Ramshackle. Added Legendary between Mastercraft and Ascension)
- Changed color of the Ascension tier from teal to red. (the colors of increasing tiers now match the colors of increasing loot crate levels)

Only dinos spawned after the mod was activated can be brought to the arena. They can be recognized by a dot at the end of the dino name. (It is recommended to do a dino wipe through console after installing the mod)


COMPATIBILLITY:
The mod remaps the 6 dinos with changed drag weight.

Mod works when loaded first

there is actually a mod for only the drag weight, it's called all arena+ and you can get any dinos into boss battles and configure the radius, also use cryopods in boss battle

Would really love a drag weight one for our server. No one wants to approve this mod because of the cheaper crafting costs. Any chance you could release a trimmed down version?

I am not an experienced ark modder. I just figured out how to mod from online tutorials to create the game experience me and my friends wanted. I suggest that you do the same. But I can give you what I remember to help you get started:

I downloaded Ark Editor for free at Epic games(or was it Steam?). I started with a “generic mod” template or something like that. I made a “child” item of the blueprints of the dinos and eggs I wanted to edit. I reduced the value in the drag weight field to 550 and changed the name of the dinos (added the “.”). I changed the blueprints of the eggs to contain the modded dino and not the vanilla dino. Then something on a main asset page or something I don’t rember... Then I cooked and uploaded the mod.

Can you say me how to make the drag weight higher than vanilla?

Hi. Thank you for your feedback. I am glad if this mod still works for any of you. I discontinued my mods a long time ago, and I am unfortunately unable to make requests. The modding tool, the game, and the little knowledge of modding that I had have all been deleted.

Is it possible to make a mod with only the drag weight? Please =)

Thank you very much for your work on this. Been looking for ages for something to curb Wildcard's equipment price gouging.

That's unfortunate but thanks for looking.

I see. I just checked my few hidden mods, and he answer is unfortunately no..

Is there a version of this just with the constant crafting costs and item tiers renamed? i dont want the drag weight reduction as it changes the dinos.
