WOOT FOR AWESOME MODS! And cool modders like KGM too! :cherrypie:

Just an FYI... This mode is awesome and works just fine with the latest versions of ARK. I would not know what to do with myself if were to ever break. My Raft: https://i.imgur.com/EqZJakA.jpg

I haven't updated in a long time. I would think it still works. It won't hurt anything with your save to test it. Sorry can't give you better info.

How many % speed increase?
How many structures?
How many walls heigh?
How many walls wide?
How many walls long?
What is the viewing distance in relation to a normal raft's viewing distance?

@Cally: Do you have this in your gameusersettings.ini file?

OverrideStructurePlatformPrevention=true

You'll need that to get the plant x to work on the platforms.
I recooked the mod last night and uploaded it again. I haven't been in game to test the functions of the raft but I will do that later today but I would think that it should work. You may want to get an updated set of files. Also, you are crafting the modded raft right?
Cally Jun 28, 2016 @ 8:40am 
Thanks, man! Always great to see a developer who'll get back to you so quickly :)
KGM6911  [author] Jun 27, 2016 @ 8:19am 
@Cally: I'll check tonight and see wha'ts up.
Cally Jun 27, 2016 @ 6:56am 
Hey, great job on the mod! :)
Unfortunately, it seems that with the new additions, the speed and the reverse options are no longer working. Also an older and still reocurring issue are the the plant species X not being in any way responsive.
KGM6911  [author] Jun 11, 2016 @ 6:59am 
I will look into the vaults. I know devs had made changes with vaults on platforms recently.
Mojax Jun 10, 2016 @ 7:46pm 
It seems that for some reason I am unable to place vaults or turrets on your modded rafts. Regular rafts work fine with placement. It would be awesome to see a fix for this as I built a mobile base with turrets in mind.
KGM6911  [author] Jun 10, 2016 @ 6:59pm 
There are two. They are:

cheat giveitem "Blueprint'/Game/Mods/RaftMod/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Structures/PrimalItemRaft_Child.PrimalItemRaft_Child'" 1 0 0

and

cheat giveitem "Blueprint'/Game/Mods/RaftMod/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Structures/PrimalItemRaft_Normal.PrimalItemRaft_Normal'" 1 0 0

The one with child is the large one and the normal one is the normal sized one.
THE_Übeяmensch Jun 10, 2016 @ 2:21pm 
the "giveitem "Blueprint'/Game/Mods/RaftMod/PrimalItemRaft_Child.PrimalItemRaft_Child'" 1 1 0" no longer works... is there a new spawn code?
Kham Jun 7, 2016 @ 11:51am 
Why do all the raft mods increase the speed and structure limits? All I want is reverse and a better third person camera for driving. :(
KGM6911  [author] May 20, 2016 @ 6:00am 
@Manyack: The mod has 2 rafts. One has a scale that is 2x the standard one. It also does have 2x the forward speed and also has reverse. The other raft is the same size as the core game raft but with the 2x and reverse. The mod won't hurt existing rafts. It adds new ones to the game.
Manyack May 20, 2016 @ 2:25am 
Hi I would like to use your mod, but I am not convinced it twice the size and speed. Would it be possible that would make a raft ?, only with activated because the current back up in my very unlevel would result server. PLEASE.

a greeting

Thank you shifty303
shifty303 May 16, 2016 @ 7:04pm 
I was able to get 107 pillars on the modded rafts when I tested.
KGM6911  [author] May 15, 2016 @ 5:50pm 
@Baconator: Currently I have the # in the mod at 90. But I'm pretty sure that the real number ends up 5 higher than that. I haven't tested it in a while but I remember when first testing it out that whatever # I put in the mod would be 5 different than the actual in game # ended up.
Baconator May 15, 2016 @ 4:24pm 
For this mod
Baconator May 15, 2016 @ 4:24pm 
Hey man, what is the current amount of structures allowed on the raft?
shifty303 May 13, 2016 @ 7:39pm 
I have to say I love this mod! Not too OP and works as advertised. Been running on my server for a few weeks now perfectly.
KGM6911  [author] May 2, 2016 @ 6:32pm 
@Bkpanther: I've been gradually increasing the # of structures by 5 at a time to make sure not to create lag.
Bkpenther Apr 28, 2016 @ 10:28pm 
Anyway to allow more than 85 structures on the boat?
McBeefy1 Apr 14, 2016 @ 2:39pm 
yep the rafts are working perfectly now. Thanks for the great mod.
KGM6911  [author] Apr 11, 2016 @ 7:48pm 
@Handofinfinity: Everything is working good?
Handofinfinity Apr 11, 2016 @ 7:40pm 
Thank you. Booted me out and came back to a normal raft. Nice surprise :) Thanks again
KGM6911  [author] Apr 11, 2016 @ 7:32pm 
@Handofinfinity: Just updated it. Should be normal again. Thanks!
Handofinfinity Apr 11, 2016 @ 7:25pm 
Cool thanks. Let me know if you need any more details.
KGM6911  [author] Apr 11, 2016 @ 5:55pm 
@Handofinfinity: I will correct that.
Handofinfinity Apr 11, 2016 @ 5:30pm 
Hi. I realized this morning that the driver of the modded raft scales to the relative size of the scaled up raft model. Is this intended? We have sort of an issue where people with 1 wall high bulkheads are now clipping through the ceiling.
KGM6911  [author] Apr 11, 2016 @ 12:31pm 
I updated this mod last night. If you didn't update your server the rafts will appear to be missing. They're still there, just update your server. One issue you may have is people may need to learn the engram again. Added a normal size raft with reverse and 2x speed in this update. Sorry for the engram issue. I will force update on this mod in the future if I make any changes like this because I don't want to scare people into thinking their raft vanished.
KGM6911  [author] Apr 11, 2016 @ 12:29pm 
@Mcbeefy1: I don't see how the mod could cause that. I have had my non modded raft drift tho so I'm guessing it's something with the game.
McBeefy1 Apr 6, 2016 @ 7:03pm 
Noticings a lot of the people building this raft on my server are getting stuck on land and I have had my raft move wile i was off line and end up stuck in my green ouse. Is this a known issue with the mod or perhaps ark it's self?
KGM6911  [author] Mar 19, 2016 @ 8:09am 
@Handofinfinity: Thanks for letting me know.
Handofinfinity Mar 19, 2016 @ 4:17am 
Deleted the mods on the server and reinstalled using the Ark Server management tool. So far everything is working since. Thanks again to @KGM6911 and @briana for the help.:steamhappy:
KGM6911  [author] Mar 18, 2016 @ 6:24pm 
@LoяdЯoY: cheat giveitem "Blueprint'/Game/Mods/RaftMod/PrimalItemRaft_Child.PrimalItemRaft_Child'" 1 1 0
THE_Übeяmensch Mar 18, 2016 @ 5:45pm 
what is the cheat command for the raft?
KGM6911  [author] Mar 18, 2016 @ 9:17am 
@briana: On my server I normally just delete my local mods on my home computer, then let the ark client download them, exit ark, then ftp into my server and upload them and overwrite all. Once and a while I'll remove the folder on the server too just to get rid of assets that may have been removed. So far haven't had any issues. Been doing it this way since the day ark released. The important part is that you remove your local content because steam updates don't always update all the files properly from what I've found. I've never used any of the server launchers, they don't do any updating right? Do they just do the config edits for you? Thanks for the help!
Handofinfinity Mar 18, 2016 @ 8:00am 
I might actually flushed the directory from the c-panel and re-upload them to the server.
Handofinfinity Mar 18, 2016 @ 7:59am 
Will try that tonight then. Thanks for the responses :)
Sweet Briana 💋™ Mar 18, 2016 @ 7:19am 
@KGM6911 & HandOfInfinity - *Never* Overwrite, this is one the most common sources of mod problems for admins. *Always* delete the mod file and the folder and then upload. If you use Ark Server Launcher.....wow, massive buggy ware - make sure to hand delete your mods or you may suffer a cataclysmic server crash and loss of world and save files.
KGM6911  [author] Mar 18, 2016 @ 6:41am 
@rob_arend: Yes, it's clean and stackable. I created the mod because players on my valhalla server kept asking for one too. I want to go somewhat slow with the development on it because I want to be sure not to introduce any performance problems into my server. I plan on testing between each update.

@Handofinfinity: I haven't changed anything about the raft itself. Are you sure your mod is up to date? I did a small update the other day and it wouldn't have forced you to update. I'd recommend overwriting all the files or even just deleting all the files and let steam download the most recent set.
Handofinfinity Mar 18, 2016 @ 6:08am 
Was having trouble this morning placing anything on the front end on the ramp. I have a row of foundations hanging off the front of the ramp where I was able 2 days ago to set walls and or ramps off of. I was making a trap boat and had a set of walls on the front end with ramps leading off of the top of the front edge walls. This morning I was re-doing the front walls to make a few adjustments but when I set any item down the green ghost appears and when I click to set them down they do not appear to set. I can't even set anything on the back end of the front foundations that sit on the raft front edge. I as well have similar issues with the right side of the raft. I am still able to set down structures in the back, left side and central area of the raft. Any ideas what could be the issue?
rob_arend Mar 18, 2016 @ 4:20am 
Is this mod clean and stackable? I'll be watching this one closely. We have a valhalla server and my community has been asking for such a thing. This will be nice once it's matured a bit more :)
