The mod works but the positioning of the islands will be off on some maps

@DeathWish, Wish you luck man, this game has the rest of 2018 left except for die hard fans on small servers (collectors) Dark and Light, the predicessor to this game is already dead and it's not even born yet, time to find other places to play.

@MetaPhaze
I´m aware that the game is loosing players but i still respect the ones who still uses the mod :p
I´d rather take som time and duplicate the mod then adopt it for another map.
MetaPhaze Jun 23, 2018 @ 8:43pm 
@DeathWish, so warn people you'll change it, and give them time to move, or settle for it only working on the old maps rarely played anymore... doesn't really matter too much the community is nearly dead with only 4k people playing all day and 7k servers left

@Coragon
The Islands shows up on quite far distance, if your mod is properly loaded they should be easy to find
DeathWish  [author] Jun 19, 2018 @ 12:42pm 
@MetaPhaze
Can't move the Islands since that would break anything users buildt om them
Coragon Mar 4, 2018 @ 9:49am 
i can not found isles on TheIsle - which GPS coordinate does they have?
MetaPhaze Jan 4, 2018 @ 10:42am 
This mod works on Ragnarok, however one island could be moved slightly to get rid of the clipping, shouldn't affect the center or the island any to do this...
@Deathwish, if you wish to see this live contact me and i'll twitch it for you.
DeathWish  [author] Oct 3, 2017 @ 11:16am 
I have been away for quite some time, will go through the mod and update it soon

no gorillas are spawning up on the island whys that

@HumbleTramp
Thank you for the info, i havn´t seen this issue during our testperiods with the mod but i am guessing that the spawnboxes collice and make a conflict regarding where and how much to spawn.

I can´t move the islands since alot of people are building on them but i will se if i can get around the issue by reconstructing the spawnmethods.
HumbleTramp Feb 23, 2017 @ 12:20pm 
I did not build anything up there i simply went to the top of the center floating island the one thats originally on the map and landed to lure an alpha to where i wanted to take it out. when i landed i started to lag out so i hopped off my bird for a second when i went to hop back on things got worse. we removed the mod and things are working properly again and no one is getting d/c in that area again.
DeathWish  [author] Feb 23, 2017 @ 12:35am 
@HumbleTramp
I am assuming that one of the floating islands are very close to the spot you are talking about.

1) Could it be that the dinos are spawning on the closest island instead?
Some creators make the spawnbox reach all the way up to the sky wich in turn will allow dinos to spawn there instead but it shouldn´t make the cave compleately dead.

2) Did you build something on the floating island?
HumbleTramp Feb 17, 2017 @ 6:12pm 
Having an issue with the center on the center island after adding this mod. turns one part in the back on the very top near one of the entry holes into the mushroom cave into a dead zone where i cant do anything at all.
Zaphod4th Feb 1, 2017 @ 12:09pm 
@DeathWish Got it, thanks.
DeathWish  [author] Feb 1, 2017 @ 12:07pm 
@Zaphod4th
its the vanilla ids with custom zones
Zaphod4th Jan 31, 2017 @ 1:40pm 
Could you share which spawn id are you using? I would like to add more creatures. Thanks.
DeathWish  [author] Jan 6, 2017 @ 9:26am 
Np, thank you for the update 😊
Nara Jan 5, 2017 @ 10:51am 
Soo after some trial and error I think I figured out my issue. I must have had a corrupt file or a remnant of an old mod messing with it. Everything loads fine after a clean install of ARK itself. so disregard my issue, guess I should have tried that first sorry lol
DeathWish  [author] Jan 3, 2017 @ 4:32am 
@Nara
I havn´t had any loading problems with the extension but it is a while since i ran a test.
Will do a checkup tonight.
Nara Jan 2, 2017 @ 6:02pm 
I seem to be missing the land textures. Tried un/resubscribing and it didnt seem to help. I can see the trees and other objects, and I can "land" on what I assume is the island itself, but its like I am walking on air. Sorry if i missed something obvious but do you have any suggestions? I use a lot of other mods, so tried loading this by itself but I still get the same issue. Does this require Scorched Earth?
Doublee (EE) Dec 15, 2016 @ 9:14am 
This map position is perfect. It worked with the Oasis map extension, Scorched Earth map extension and Streichelzoo map extension all on The Island map. Nice to add more room.
chopFM Dec 15, 2016 @ 8:35am 
@Deathwish,
very nice mate, any objects past the manticore island in the sky away from the rest would be really awesome. thank you for your responses.
DeathWish  [author] Dec 15, 2016 @ 6:50am 
i cant add more islands since they are mapped out to fit many different maps
DeathWish  [author] Dec 15, 2016 @ 6:49am 
I can add some resources there anyway.
The boss can already spawn but its a very low spawnrate and it will probably not spawn if you build a base on the isle
chopFM Dec 14, 2016 @ 11:51pm 
mabie add a couple more islands past the mantacore island for us pgarkers? :)
chopFM Dec 14, 2016 @ 11:47pm 
aww, thats too bad for pgark maps, the mantacore island is the only one thats accessable.
will the boss automatically spawn there when its working properly?
DeathWish  [author] Dec 14, 2016 @ 11:39pm 
@(COLG) chop
The islands will be updated with more resources and it was planned from the beginning with the exeption of Manticore Isle since the plan was to have that as a boss fighting arena however the AI targeting system of the boss needs to change since it´s bugged out ^^
chopFM Dec 14, 2016 @ 10:28pm 
i have tried every floating island map extention mod with my live pgark server, this is the only one that has a floating islad in the playable area. we will keep the mod even though the other islands are out of bounds. the mushroom island is playable in the far nw corner of a pgark, the others too far out. some resources on the island would be great. feel free to msg me back, thanks :)
DeathWish  [author] Nov 27, 2016 @ 10:45pm 
Didn't even think of that, i will not move them 😊
Doublee (EE) Nov 27, 2016 @ 8:00pm 
@Deathwish - Mod is working great on The Island. I acutally have 2 other floating islands and yours doesn't colide with them. This is good. Can you please not move them as players are building on them and if they are moved their stuff will be floating in the air :( If it needs changes for other maps, maybe make another mod for those maps or something. Thx :)
DeathWish  [author] Nov 27, 2016 @ 3:40pm 
I will buy SE this week and see if i can tweak the locations
DeathWish  [author] Nov 27, 2016 @ 3:38pm 
Thanks Leon, the monkey Isle is partly outside on theIsland to, dont know how much on SE but if it is that same as TheIsland there wont spawn any creatures outside the barrier
Leon the Log Nov 27, 2016 @ 2:09pm 
have just tried them on Scorched Earth....

the gorilla and manticore islae are fine
the Monkey isle is partialy blocked by the play area barrier.
The latter spoils it for me on my server,so I will not be using it on SE

Otherwise, a little more ground vegetation would finish them quite well
and maybe some water life in the pool.
good work:steamhappy:
DeathWish  [author] Nov 27, 2016 @ 9:09am 
Thanks Ninjapigg 😛
Hobgoblino the III Nov 26, 2016 @ 1:29pm 
ill test this on the volcan map tonight :)
BOONE Nov 25, 2016 @ 1:50am 
yea i spaced im tired. lmao
DeathWish  [author] Nov 25, 2016 @ 1:34am 
@Doublee
The locations is mapped out for TheIsland and TheCenter.
If you try this mod with other maps i would love some imput regarding placement of the isles.
DeathWish  [author] Nov 25, 2016 @ 1:29am 
Whats the difference, I assume you ment sky or water ?
They float in the sky, images will be up in a few minutes
BOONE Nov 25, 2016 @ 1:21am 
are they floating in the sky or the air?
Doublee (EE) Nov 24, 2016 @ 10:19pm 
Awesome job! Can you tell us which maps it working best with? Thx!
DeathWish  [author] Nov 24, 2016 @ 2:24pm 
Just noticed that the texture didn´t follow for the top trees on Gorilla Isle, will fix this soon
Hobgoblino the III Nov 24, 2016 @ 12:59pm 
Awesome sould you make a mod list with all your mods tho? I can never tell when you release a new one but i like most of your mods :3
