@nevcairiel: Thank you so much! That's what I get for taking an 8 month break from Ark, forgetting the little things like there being a 3rd vanilla Coel variant lol. And ahh I get the partial matching thing now, wasn't 100% sure on it before. (probably due to my lack of reading comprehension half the time lmao) Keep up the good work, mod is great so far!

the message for the shiny dinos is way to fast sometimes less than half a second

if i tame shiny dodo all shiny evects has destoryed

Getting huge clumps of spawned dinos of the same type as the shiny. It's really cool, but sometimes we can't find the shiny and it overspawns things like Karkinos.

Shiny doesn't spawn any new creatures, it only converts an existing one into a Shiny. If there is clumping where the Shiny is, then the clump was likely there before and due to the increased number of dinos in that area its much more likely that Shiny picked one of them for conversion.

I m sorry for writing here nevcairiel(dev) i know this is a bug report section but FAQ was locked. On the other hand i was thinking that they not having abilities was a bug xD sorry for it again

Don't know if its a bug or not, but I tamed a burning megatherium last night and it had the fire effect. but when I booted up the game today it had lost the effect. I am on singleplayer but I have hibernation turned off I am also on Genesis and am using Kraken's better dinos. UPDATE: I put him into a soul trap and he gained his effect back.

@Lordofthetreefrogs I've seen that happen with other permanent effects as well, not just Shiny ones. Happily Lethal has our backs with Dino Storage!

I occasionally get fatal errors after installing the mod.
I'm running Extinction Core, so most dinos have an alpha version.
Both crashes happened near Shiny alphas
Ragnarok Map
Private Server
The fatal error window had a ton of messages about canvas/paint/widgets in it.

I'm up to 5 crashes now. About 1 every hour. I have a screenshot of the crash window fortunately

If you could provide me with a shot of the error I can take a look, but from some checking it appears that Extinction Core manages to crash just on its own as well, it hasn't been updated for two DLCs after all.

Where do I send the screenshot to?
I've been running Extinction Core on my servers for a while now. I didn't get any fatal errors until I switched to your mod, although I do occasionally get them from using Ragnarok, which may be related.

@xhexenlord Would you be able to join us on the Discord? There's a link on the description page.

Edit: Before continuing, does the sparkling shiny effects (the light balls flying around the dino) lose effect when tamed?

- Which dino is your problem with, if any?

All shinies

- Which map are you on?

Ragnarok

- What exactly is happening?

Shiny Effects lost whenever tamed. Furthermore, a wild shiny has shiny effects, even when it is knocked down, but when it is tamed, the shiny effects wore off. There is also one case where my Tatterdemalion Tek Carno with 2M hp suddenly dropped down to 30k due to some various reasons. I do have -preventhibernation in launch parameters. Also, there was this one instance where when I use a soul storage on my dinosaur, it stats dropped. (This only happened once so far with the Royal Phoenix)

EDIT: It was working before when I first installed it, but it wasn't until 2-3 days ago when this happened.

You have to add a line to the .ini settings if you want the shiny effect to say when they are tamed.
