@duke disable structure collision in order to place the element crafter. This is a server config or a checkbox in your singleplayer settings if not playing on a server.

@venyx yes, but you have to disable structure collision in order to place the element crafter.

working?

To all those asking , yes this mod still works . If you have issues with the element converter : It can only be placed on a normal vanilla outlet. Doesn't work if its s+. Hope this helped ;)

Today I found out that Eco has left the modding, because toxic people harass her day in and out with negativity about her mods and it has broken her. It makes me sad to hear and I hope she gets better soon.

I just wanted to say that me, my brother and nephew love and appreciate ALL the work you do for the modding community for Ark. I wish more people would tell all of you modders that what you are doing is great! And not complain and bitch about things you get for free.

Thank you! I hope you never feel bad about your modding.

Oh, and also: fck toxic people they can go off and die in a corner.

Mod does still work.

Mod is no longer supported and does not work!
rob_arend Feb 13, 2022 @ 11:47am 
@Magrathias ensure that you've learned the engrams. My experience was the same as yours until I found out that I didn't have the engram learned.

As of 2/11/2022, does not appear to work. Installed and it worked initially, then broke after a standard server restart, could no longer access crafter inventory, picked up and set it down, still didn't work. Uninstalled and reinstalled, still no go. Had no trouble with placement.

@maverickdemon10 I had this issue at one point too, and found that it could be placed if you disabled collision in the settings. It's likely caused by the model retaining the collision of the actual tek replicator(its just a much much smaller version) - but that made it work for me.

im having an issue with being able to place the converter. i cant place it anywhere. it says its obstructed, even in the middle of nothing. Any way to fix this?

Hi, would like to change the level requirment for the converter and crafter but I don't know which internal name the structure does have. I figured something like PrimalItemStructure_Converter_Craft_C, but this didn't worked out.
Pattevugel Dec 4, 2021 @ 9:30am 
doesnt work :(
Lil Mozart Nov 23, 2021 @ 1:42pm 
i cant place the converter everywhere, where do i need to place it?
ザン / Zan Zrov Oct 27, 2021 @ 6:48am 
how to unlock the engram? its blacked out
Acurze Feb 22, 2021 @ 4:52pm 
I'm having an issue where I can't power the crafting station. Anyone been able to figure that bug out?
King Alastor Feb 18, 2021 @ 9:28am 
i think it would be a good idea to fix the bug so we dont have to Exit the game and turn it off then turn it back on over and over again it kinda gets annoying >.>
rob_arend Feb 18, 2021 @ 9:22am 
Well, if you became curious, IIRC, it was only for the creation device(the little tek replicator) and not the converter. I'm not sure why it would act that way anyway, its not like it obeys the collision of the tek replicator, it just cant be placed unless that setting is disabled. idk though, Ark is weird. it might just need to be recooked with the updated dev kit. but its neither here nor there
Born2Die.cH  [author] Feb 18, 2021 @ 9:17am 
IDK if i'm gonna debug that bug, but aslong as it works that way, thats fine. As i dont have that much free time anymore, i dont think i'm gonna mod a lot of things or gonna add stuff to mods. The only thing i'm thinking about is expanding my Stack It Up mod for the other DLC :)
Born2Die.cH  [author] Feb 18, 2021 @ 9:15am 
nice to hear that :D
rob_arend Feb 18, 2021 @ 8:28am 
It works for me as long as collision is disabled in the settings. That accounts for server and singleplayer.
Born2Die.cH  [author] Feb 18, 2021 @ 7:56am 
Hey Guy's, havent been here for a time and didnt play Ark aswell. Is the Mod still working smoothly beside the known placement issues? :)
schwarzesherz Feb 5, 2021 @ 6:09am 
Huhu, Wo kann man denn diesen Element Converter hinstellen?? Bei mir zeigt es, egal ob auf einem Fundament oder nicht, immer nur an ,das ich es nicht setzen kann... Der Weg wäre versperrt ?

Add element converter cannot be released
Azazel Nov 30, 2020 @ 8:25am 
This works great we are using on Crystal Isles and Ragnarock
King Alastor Sep 26, 2020 @ 12:32am 
@Rob_arend Turning off Collision in the Game settig when you start a Non-dedicated server?
rob_arend Sep 25, 2020 @ 8:14am 
@Shadowbeatz I fixed this by turning off collision in the settings, the exact setting escapes me, but I hope that helps you.
King Alastor Sep 25, 2020 @ 8:08am 
Mod dosnt work i keep getting an obstructed error so i can place it down anywhere
rob_arend Jun 24, 2020 @ 12:46pm 
@joe Swanson you need to have the "allow structures to mesh" setting to true for some reason
Achraf Med Kallen Jun 23, 2020 @ 3:46pm 
i cant place the element comverter it says blocked
rob_arend Apr 11, 2020 @ 10:36am 
As of Version 310.11, we have been unable to access the inventory of the crafter. We've tried picking it up and putting it back down to troubleshoot with no joy. Thanks! This mod has been a lifesaver, btw. I appreciate your work.
TheMystic6 Mar 26, 2020 @ 3:04pm 
There is an asset name confliction with the S+ converter (it is also called PrimalItemStructure_Converter) making this mod incompatible with S+ (it still works, but the engrams will keep duplicating in your inventory)
Randoe Feb 11, 2020 @ 3:30pm 
anyone know of any severs that run this mod or one like it
AznIronMan Dec 26, 2019 @ 11:00am 
Puls Dec 21, 2019 @ 3:34am 
Can't place the converter on floor, table or foundations. DisableStructurePlacementCollision and it works !
AznIronMan Oct 18, 2019 @ 3:31pm 
Do you think it’s possible to rename your converter asset to like “ElementConverter” the “Converter” name is used by an item in S+ that conflicts somethings.
Styxx42 Sep 25, 2019 @ 5:57am 
This really does help us not having to go back to extinction when you are trying to build up say Ragnarok.
Thanks

Even though the last update was a year ago, you should consider making element dust craftable into element. I might just be stupid, but I can't find any mods whatsoever that do this, and I'm pretty sure having this option would make your mod top the charts in use. Since you can now kill and harvest tek dinos for element dust, it serves no purpose unless there was a mod to turn it into element.
Screaming Alpha Sep 2, 2019 @ 7:46am 
so is a negative amount in the crafting station normal? it wont craft element now
Screaming Alpha Sep 2, 2019 @ 7:39am 
dond try turning the electricity off then back on after placing the item
-BDF-dondamien Jun 24, 2019 @ 8:39am 
im using normal vanilla or s+ electricity (not wireless but normal generator with cable and outlet) it does not pick up the electricity. it stayl says unpowered. even if i put it right net to the outlet.
Born2Die.cH  [author] Jun 24, 2019 @ 5:29am 
Just electricity
-BDF-dondamien Jun 23, 2019 @ 5:36am 
does it need fuel to run? i cant get it to run even if i have every item in there
Born2Die.cH  [author] Jun 3, 2019 @ 3:24am 
Level requirement is 100
Sylvoute Jun 2, 2019 @ 9:39am 
Still unable to place when collision disabled...
Madanex96 May 30, 2019 @ 7:27pm 
At what level is this engram unlockable, or does this unlock at the beginning?
