Hi, excellent map, I have been exploring but cannot find Thylacoleo or Achatina, despite looking in what I thought would be the "usual" environment - I assume there are some?

the water on 39-84 can not used for pipe

@RedBaron3207 There are a ton of issues with the spawns but the next update fixes most of them to my knowledge (just doing some testing and other stuff before I update). But dams are spawning, they work the same way Ragnarok does dams where they are supply drops. Every couple minutes a dam spawns in and stays to a max of 8 dams. I also do not mind if you want to make a video with it.

Ok, I just read through earlier comments and seems like you already know abt beavers and deathworms

I flew around the map a bit and here's what I noticed:
-There's a huge overspawn of beavers in the beaver area, and I also couldn't find a single dam there.
-The procoptodon cliffs also seem to have quite a bit of an overspawn
-Deathworms are REALLY common in the deathworm wasteland but I guess this is intented, judging from the name of the area
-Basilos and squids didn't move at all until I punched them, idk if that's something you can fix
-Dodo city is a bit empty dino wise. Maybe you could increase the spawns there a bit? Also I couldn't find a parasaur, if they're not included in the dodo city spawn, I think they'd be a good fit
-I couldn't find any fish at all in water areas, making the lakes quite empty and lifeless
-The redwood area was quite empty, I could barely find any creature there

Other than that, the map is great! I can't wait until it's 100% done to play it

(By the way, are you fine with me using it for a youtube video (100 days in moose lake)?)

this map doesnt got too much water on dodo city :/ xD

It's really a good map though, like I came back to this page and was shocked it was as new as it was, and from an inexperienced map maker. There's definitely room for improvement, but this is a solid foundation.

I completely agree with everything you said and I felt the same while playing the map, thank you for the comment.

Played for a good few hours starting in the Dodo City, exploring the trench between the NE (green) area, and loved the vibe. However, as soon as we took to the air, it was a lot less... fun. I think part of this is due to the flat terrain, I just played Valguero and I was comparing the redwood forests to each other, there isn't much to block the view, so it feels like you can see it all rather quickly. If I could suggest one thing, it would be features of interest in the biomes, like the Dodo City.

I know it's far too late for this, but I was talking with the people I played the map with, and we sort of all agreed that we wished it had just been the lake with Abberations, the ruined city above, and the corrupted lands beyond the wall and the trench. Like some sort of ancient civilization tried to protect the lake by halting the corruption, and ultimately failed, but they slowed it so much that it still hadn't made it to the lake.

@AcherKan tu voudras faire la survie du coup ou pas ?

A. This is probably the end of the cards. I think it's just a beautiful bridge. You can build a base on it or next to it :)

yep but about that screen, i found where it is but i can't figure out how to go inside the mountain, is it normal or just a feature that will be added later?

The second screenshot is simple...Wow! Lush greenery and ancient ruins!

The beavers are over spawning a quite a bit due to me being dumb and thinking 300 beavers were not that many. But the deathworms are fine, I wanted it be more difficult once I figure out the Extinction orbital drops that would be spawning there.

@FrenchHamster thx for the silk! and for the obsidian, i found some in the swampy trench. and i finished the dessert cave (i think it was the artifact of brute) with velos! but in my explorations, i found that the desert have a mutsh more dangerous zone, and i wanted to know i having 6 or 7 death worms following me was normal or overspawn. and i wasn't prepared for this lol cause i thout it was just an unfinished desert area cause the dunes looks quite the same. so i think u should made them more diferent than the ones in the chill desert part like by making them flater or bigger. and one more thing: the beavers area is overspawning too! don't know if it's normal but if it is my pc do not like this at all, i was arrond 10fps when they loaded lol

@AcherKan tu voudras la survie?

Probably, matters how the system works in ASA. Can't say I been following the recent news about it but if the mod is free and easy to update then I would.

map seems cool! do you plan on porting it to the remaster once it releases?

re slt @AcherKan comme je disais est-ce que tu voudras faire une survie avec moi parce que je m'ennuie un peu en solo moddée et en multijoueur bah c'est pareil quoi

the map is very good

The beginning cinematic crashed my friend, is there a way to skip it for potato PCs?

good

Thank you

Great map, I really appreciate your work done on this.

@AcherKan ça te dirai de faire une survie tout les deux ou pas ? parce que je m'ennuie un peu en solo XD

@AcherKan d'accord j'irai la tester après

@DasTiggiTier The main spawns in each biomes is
Lost island dinos and jungle dinos spawn in the meadows
Snow has extinction and gen1 snow spawns
wildfire area has volcanic spawns
redwoods just has redwood spawns
coast has gen2 beach spawns
city has beach spawns
rivers has aberration biolum spawns
fog/swamp has gen1 bog spawns
ocean has gen1 ocean spawns
dunes has scorched earth spawns
cliffs has extinction desert spawns
If the biome has the name of a creature, it spawns in the region.
some dinos not included yet are reapers, shadowmanes, wyverns, the aberration glow pets, maewings, gachas, tropeos, and deep ocean creatures like mosas and tusos. I have plans for most of these creatures like special caves.
This is quite simplified and there are random spawns everywhere but hopefully this gives a general idea.

@kellbreaker I do not know why that would be happening. Maybe wait in the home screen for a little since sometimes Ark is updating mods without telling you. There is also a good chance you are getting Arked and just need to verify the game files. I remember a couple years back I had problem similar but I don't remember how I fixed it sorry, I probably just verified the game files.

wich dinos are spawning?
can you post a list?

Hey today I booted up ark and your map is gone from my selection options.I tried re downloading the mod and it still isn't showing up. I've been playing it a decent amount over the past week so not sure what happened.

@Acherkan I agree with having more ways to get between biomes on foot, the next update includes a couple caves that connect some biomes and some fallen trees to help. But I agree that is the biggest thing i want to work on with the map. And other then caves, obsidian is kinda everywhere in small patches but the top right part of the map with the beavers has a ton. It can be kinda hard to see since it is a similar colour to the big rocks. For silk, it is everywhere in the Procoptodon Cliffs (the desertic plateaus) and Hyaeodon Hotspot (the wildfires area). I appreciate the response.

Hey @FrenchHamster, as i said, i tryed the map and it is realy nice! but i have some problems in traveling: i feel like your map isn't ez to explore on ground. the different areas have quite a small conection between them. like the extinction like city that is only relied with the pin forest by a bridge and to the desertic plateaus by a ramp. i think you should make some more paths to travel across the land. i have trouble to find ressouces too: where is the silk and obsidian?

@ThaiBrother elle est cool mais pour l'instant un peu vide

@Acherkan la map elle est bien ou pas?

Thank you

Oh, I see! Well, success and inspiration to you in your work! Oh, and one more thing. A very interesting decision on the names of the map, each name involves some animal :3

probably 80% when it comes to the map's design, but only about 25% when it comes to other stuff like dino spawns, sounds, and features.

And as a percentage, how roughly is this map completed?

Great map! I've been playing mostly in the dodo city so far but its very pretty and has good dinos. It took me a minute to find rocks at first but once I did I was able to find most materials for starting out easily.

no idea how to get high quality screen shots under 2MB, unless you scale the image down. so try taking 1080 screen shots, then drop their scale down to something like 480 and see if it comes out as 2MB without loosing quality. could also try to compress the file down; but idk which would be best or if they'd shrink the data down to 2MB with a 1080 high res pic.

Epic settings were used for the screenshots and I agree they look bad. I just do not know how to upload better photos and keep them under 2mb for steam

gonna try it

PS: t'es français ouuuuu

Umm... The question arises - is the map itself made in this style, or were low settings deliberately used for screenshots (so as not to lose fps)?

Well now! This looks really interesting!!
