It works, but it breaks the procedural caves. You can't farm artifacts with it.

so dose this mod work with the island? or is it broken as all hell

This mod breaks the caves, you can't use them any more.

Going to be re-doing the original Better Beacons mod here in the next couple weeks so this one will then become discontinued.

Malazak Jun 12, 2017 @ 10:29am 
Any chance this mod will be updated to work with The Center at some time?

Mod removed from Fairkarp due to cave issue.

@LeRapThor I have the same problem
LeRapThor May 4, 2017 @ 4:57pm 
For some reason when i use this on my server, all the caves stop loading into the game, I've tested this by removing it from my server and the caves loaded in.

All my beacons are only dropping grey items.I recently switched from better beacons to better beacons redux and I am also using Annunaki. Does anyone have a suggestion? My server is hating me right now.
LightningRoc77 Apr 7, 2017 @ 6:39pm 
any chance you gonna get this working with vallhalla and the center??
Vas Apr 7, 2017 @ 11:04am 
I hope you still get crop plots and such from supply drops on occasion, I like having as many blueprints as I can get, crop plots, jars, etc. Not copies, I just want to get them at some point. I know the previous version said you never get them at all.

is this mod available for the multiplay servers?
Bassarus Mar 21, 2017 @ 3:55pm 
Caves do not exist with this mod. They are literally just NOT there. MAJOR bug.

For those of you who have yet to experience a troll in your life, Example A is the post below me. Specifically, norman_. Grab your tomatoes and get to throwing.
norman_ Mar 17, 2017 @ 11:28pm

Hairy0tter Mar 11, 2017 @ 5:31am 
Will this mod become available for other maps such as Valhalla?
Sky Mar 9, 2017 @ 7:37pm 
this mod breaks the caves for some reason and yes on the island yea
YadNi Monde Mar 5, 2017 @ 11:01am 
I can also confirm that while i had this mod, all my caves were simply not there at all, only huge voids to fall in down to some water level very low, as soon as i have removed it, caves were there for me to explore. If you want your caves to be there, do not use this mod, sorry for that...:steamsad:
andygt Feb 16, 2017 @ 4:29pm 
so does this mod still break the caves? might have to use beacon enhancer instead :(
Braethias Jan 31, 2017 @ 5:42pm 
Removed this mod, and the cave loaded instantly as I ran into it. This mod currently appears to break all caves.
Braethias Jan 31, 2017 @ 5:21pm 
@stucknorris yes, this mod apparently has before and is again apparently. I'm currently waiting for my dedicated server to start so i'll post back in a moment.

Could this mod be added to The Center?? Would be great, thanks!
StuckNorris Jan 28, 2017 @ 12:40pm

THAMANICH Jan 11, 2017 @ 1:12pm 
MISSING TEXTURE IN CAVE BAD MOD DO NOT USE!!!
M@DM@X_AUS Jan 1, 2017 @ 6:18pm 
Has this mod been fixed so as to not screw up the caves ?

Kylling Dec 22, 2016 @ 12:05pm 
I host a server and when i added this mod to the server it made it so that none of the caves in the entire map render in for anyone, please make a fixed version this mod is so good except for that
Heatsaul Dec 15, 2016 @ 11:56pm

Die_Bosluis Dec 15, 2016 @ 10:02pm

NorfolkDave Dec 12, 2016 @ 4:04pm 
Is there a version for the center ?
Ibpigeonmaster Dec 10, 2016 @ 12:22pm 
Where is the ini file? Anyone Got a file path for me? pls
Ostrobogulous Dec 5, 2016 @ 7:36am 
Will this put items into the beacons that is not appropriate to a Primitive Plus server?
Moriko153 Nov 30, 2016 @ 12:52pm 
Its not as good as the version befor this mod should be modified to work also on the Center like the version befor
the7thguest Nov 28, 2016 @ 1:18pm 
Can confirm, also my server had to deactivate it as of incompatibility with the new caves. Damn, already pulled 3 water jar blueprints out of beacons now again, I hope this will become a fix :/
Rinion Nov 26, 2016 @ 5:05pm 
This Mod breaks the new caves on the Island.
Devestatio Nov 19, 2016 @ 12:50pm 
@Muffin It does not run perfectly on The Center Map, there are two spots that are created where cave mobs and the beacons are floating over the water and case an invisible cave zone to spawn. Anyone entering these areas will be permanently stuck and tamed dino's will eventually fall through the world. I DO NOT recommend using this on The Center Map, unless you want to take that risk. The Author has already stated that this is only compatible with The Island Map.
Runs fine for me on The Center. Also new PvP server running this mod and only one other, stacking mod. Visit us at 192.99.21.138:27015

Looking for something fresh, lightly modded, and actively supported? Then visit BloodBath PvP! Brand new server started on 10/30 so plenty of the best building locations available! We have max player level 100 with custom XP settings that give about 3x XP multiplier and grants all engrams by time you max level. Adjusted stat bonuses for dinos and players with wild dino difficulty set to 1.5x. We run only two mods, Better Beacons Redux and a light Stacking mod. We do have ORP enabled through config so you're protected while your tribe is offline. Check out our forums at bloodbath.lefora.com for details on rules and any other information you might want! We also offer a Teamspeak and personal tribe channels if you and your tribe become active.

@Dancemagicdance In a previous update from the ARK Devs they made it so no building near the drops is allowed.
Dancemagicdance Oct 28, 2016 @ 3:29pm 
Can anyone confirm if this mod blocks building near drop spawn points?
Ness Oct 25, 2016 @ 12:55pm 
I am here looking at this mod to add to my server, but I run The Center... shame.
Minty Oct 24, 2016 @ 4:08pm 
Can you do the community a favor and make this map compatible with TheCenter, too, please? There's no decent beacon mod for TheCenter :c

Yeah, me too @Zerke. Just made huge effort to get to a red beacon and all I got was some sparkpowder and hide armor, lol. Sumthin' done broke.
DreddWild Oct 9, 2016 @ 3:15pm 
Have this mod running on TheIsland. It affected the Beacons and Cave Chests, but in a bad way. The quality of the items stays at Primitive 90% of the time, this is even with the Quality for everything set to 10. Any idea on what the issue is?
