Hello friends!
As you recognized, i did not update the mod for a long time.
Real life has completely consumed me, so I have no time for ARK and modding.
i know, this is not what you want to hear, but i hope this will change in the future.
i am working on it.
Sorry for that and thx for your support!

Up : @Aaron_duh_Baron "Does this mod still work or cause any issues?"

can you make the mod work on modded dinos?

Ciao. volevo sapere se la tua mod sarà su ASA? Porta colore al dino che solitamente hanno colori spenti.

is there a chance to set a level for colored dinos so for example i want only lvl 150 dinos to be random color how to set it up in the ini file

Does this mod still work or cause any issues?

is it xmas colors?

This abandoned?

anyone know if this mod works with kraken better dinos? i dont know anything about either mod tbh

@xradar83 one of the servers i play on had possibly an odd interaction with a random colour dino mod, there was much variety in colour... still all looked like close, VERY CLOSE cousins, but normal human character colours. the other servers, in the same group, with the same mods wasn't fiddled with the same way apparently, no random colours. might be able to weedle the mod settings changed. could be mod order.

Is there any way to make characters have any color?

Is there a way to make this mod only act on every fourth spawn? Instead of all of them.

For now Only females works I guess.

Does this mod not work on Lost Island?

This mod doesnt appear to work with "additional creatures: wild ark" spawns. I checked the ini and it has one creature from the mod listed there but its a creature that doesnt even spawn. Any way to fix this?

I'm pretty sure the pink dinos are the valentines event, I havent installed this yet but I did a dino wipe recently when I reinstalled better dinos and like half the dinos are pink/purple/red

@Lazarus Finley perhaps the Destroy command did not find all wild creatures. i don't know.... If you remove a mod, there is no way that parts will still exist and be active

@Grebog I should have explicitly stated, I did use the DestroyWildDinos command multiple times after removing the mod, but I was still getting dinos that were randomly colored, most obvious ones being white/cyan combinations.

After having had it disabled for a while, using the command many times, and it having been a few days, it seems to actually be disabled now, as all the wild dinos I'm finding seem to be vanilla coloration. Not sure what could have caused this weird issue, but hey.

@Lazarus Finley if you remove the mod, all colored dinos remain in the game. This is a feature of this mod. You can remove all wild creatures from the game using a console command "cheat DestroyWildDinos".

So I enabled this mod for a while, then disabled it as I was having the same results as DragonGirl and wanted to go back to the vanilla colors for a while. It seems, however, that even with this mod removed from my load list, it's still active. Is there any way to fix this?

@DragonGirl perhaps this mod collides with the actual Ark settings? Valentine's day or such

So... it feels like 5% of the creatures spawning with this mod are hot pink. Like, Neon Fuschia. It's the most common color I see out of the unnatural ones and a lot of the dinos are pure pink. Is this... a thing? Or is it bugged? Or...?

Also, I do absolutely love this mod. So many great dinos. There's just a whole lotta pink lol

Is there a way to separate wyvern and Crystal Wyvern?

Also, I'd love to see this for a percentage of creatures, like someone suggested, but I expect that would be difficult to do.

This does work fine with KBD.

any chance you can list the map names for the configs or is it just the standard map names

i run a server for each of the xpack maps and also the official maps that were mods

and does this mod have to be loaded first in mod list

Does this mod work with the KBD mod? I had a color mod and realised it scew's up everything. And now I have to remove it, and Im loosing everything doing so. I don't want that again.

No worries, I got it working anywho! I should have mentioned that, apologies.

@Jekyde this is a steam workshop issue and i cannot help, i am sorry.

Hello, hi! I installed this on my server but it doesn't seem to be working. I checked the File Manager/ShooterGame/Content/Mods folder and it doesn't even have a folder there stating that it's installed.

So I removed it from config, restarted/stopped my server to cycle it, added it back into config and when I went through the updater, I didn't even get a "[+] Starting Download of mod with ID <mod ID number>" It's like it's not picking up that the mod ID numbers are even in the string. I made sure the numbers were correct and everything. I'm at a loss.

@Grebog Is there a way to make it so it's only a percentage chance a dino spawns with other unnatural colors like in this mod? I would like it to be similar to during events where a few dinos spawns with other colors, but most spawn with the normal color palette.

Can this mod be used to make dinos have bright neon colours like the Easter event? I'd like to run different events in my game, but I *so* like the bright colours.

Yes, what Shinigat says goes in my direction, too. Compatible.

I saw that but it only lets you choose one single color for either male or female, for example i'm wanting only 3 or 4 different colors but no more than that.

@shinigati, please have a look at this discussion: https://steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/discussion/905971515/133263024018035955/

Hey can you make it so that we can configure the .ini for multiple colors or at least a way to exclude some? for example i find that dark blue and light green looks ugly on a specific dino so i only want it to choose a handful of colors to randomize in.

Can you create a mod that allows the player to change the color of an animal's color regions? Better than painting over with dye.

And another mod, that allows the player or admin to decide, what the colors of the color regions are when animals spawn. But it looks, this option already exists, if I understand the text correctly.

This mod is amazing! Very good dude!

Would you be willing to add the new color IDs released? Absolutely adore this mod :D

No longer working on Nitrado servers apparently. Server will not start with this and some other mods that worked before :(

@Grebog - With the release of Genesis alot of new colors have been made available. But they are not Genesis only. Here is the link to the wiki showing all the colors available now.

https://ark.gamepedia.com/Color_IDs

@amunsul what new colors? i do not own genesis

@Grebog This mod sounds like exactly what my server and players are wanting after the let down of no longer being able to implement holidays at will. My players like the holiday colors are hate when the holiday ends.

However, one thing i wanted to check, does this mod include all the possible colors available in the game? Including the new Genesis colors and dye colors?

Loving the colours of the Argents but not the Wolves so much blue and green wolves don't cut it for me :(

@Sakura hi, thx for the idea. i will put it on the list, but i cannot promise, when i can release a new version.

@Grebog

I am interested in using this mod for one of my server. Would it be possible to add an .ini option to set how many % of dinos will have random colors? I want to make a "safari" server where my members look for rare colored dino to breed for the main server cluster.

Oh really? It's hard to tell when you're having so much fun on a single map instead of checking the performance on each map individual one after another. Thanks for the info and thanks again for making this mod!!!

@TheIrishStud this mod is working on all maps, but you can setup individual colorset for each map

OMG this works with a custom dinosaur mod... please PLEASE come back and update this for new maps should they not work in the near distant future when I upload my character after having an absolute blast with this and many other mods on the island!!! ^_^ Anyone that doesn't have this mod isn't really tasting the full experience of Ark Survival Evolved. That's all I have to say about this for now... TO INFINITY AND BEYOND!!! x p

My life is complete! Thank you for taking the time to make this mod. Does this mod work on other maps? I don't know but I'll find out soon! 5/5 <3

I like your mod but I only have one doubt, is there any way that they come out with more vivid colors? thanks.

@OneSlyFox you will not lose any tamed. only new spawned creatures will get new colors. you can tame them and also have babies which will also have the new colors. And if you remove this mod, all creatures with new colors stay in your game.

I will not lose any of my current tames? Will colors on my current tames stay what they are? Does this only change wild dinos and flyers moving forward? Thanks
