might be able to use this mod and others if you go to the beta tab of the game and choose pre-Aquatica release

Its abandon ware, So most likely no.

Hey Finn I don't know if you're still around or even see these comments, but if you plan to ever update this mod to be fixed because of the recent Aquatica release I just think you should be aware a ton of servers (especially pretty much all PaD servers) have opted to just stick to the pre-aquatica version of ARK because of many mods that are likely to never be fixed. So if you do intend to update this mod to work with the Aquatica update, it would be in everyone's best interest to keep the current version available in some form.

If its not working, FIx the mod, No reason to just sit here and ignore players, fix your mod, or remove it.

this mod was like the first and only mod for ark that I really used on the regular, I remember when people had full servers for people to play as and roleplay as dinosaurs, this game was literally the Isle or beasts of bermuda for me before those games were a thing, thanks for the dope memories finntastic and shout out to the legacy of play as dino

I can't invite my friends to join my clan in non-dedicated mode, does anyone know how to fix this?
SloanSteel May 15 @ 6:12am 
Is there a way to change the crafting requirements for the dino shelters? Playing as a Direwolf and everything works fine, except the crafting of the re-spawn cave structure. I can't get the rhino horn. Can I remove that as a requirement?
imamkepo01 May 12 @ 10:47pm

@Skylen Xander
Is Play as Dino at the top of your active mod list? If it isn't then it doesn't work but if it is at the top of the active mod list then I don't know what the issue is.
Neutron May 8 @ 3:16am 
@Davidsdoinit I do.
So what you want to do is spawn in as some random dino like a rex. Then click ESC and go to the Play as Dino Settings.
Then click on "Get all (Modded) Dino Classes" and after a few seconds - few minutes (depends on how many mods are enabled) you'll get all the modded dinos as playables.

Skylen Xander May 4 @ 3:22am

I can't open the vault or anything. When you press the E button, a menu appears in which you need to select open inventory (storage), but nothing happens. Everything used to work (I didn't install new mods) Tell me what to do.

How do you gather wood and thatch for building structures? I haven't seen anyone else ask this and I can't figure it out. Attacking plants like usual does nothing.
JulioBastos Mar 29 @ 11:48am 
please add new dinos!!!
EvilNecroid Mar 28 @ 12:56am 
it works? every time i try the game takes a dump. i guess ill have to try again

Some answers to a few questions:

Yes, the mod does still work. It has to be first in line on the mod list, I believe.
This mod does work in multiplayer on any map, and you CAN play as modded dinos. It takes some exploring of the menu to find the option, but enabling all works.
Sometimes it doesn't let you place structures as a dino... We don't know why this happens. It seems to be a lottery roll you don't want to win.
I do not know where Finntastic went, but I believe it was a combination of being threatened by the unruly side of the community as well as having new projects to work on other than PAD. I hope the best for him, but I also sincerely hope he takes the time to update PAD if Snail updates this "aquatica" slop and breaks the devkit again...
