Fix Your Ark Paints to Work
Locate your Ark Saved Paints

Mine is here: X:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\ARK\ShooterGame\Saved\MyPaintings


Locate a file that looks like:

yourpaint_PlayerPawnTest_Male_C.pnt
yourpaint_PlayerPawnTest_Female_C.pnt

----
ANY VARIATION is fine.

Change it to:

yourpaint_Natural_PlayerPawnTest_Male_C.pnt
yourpaint_Natural_PlayerPawnTest_Female_C.pnt

-----------------

If unsure of the prefix you should add - or it doesnt work with natural (May be Gorean).

Load ARK - Edit your paint, SAVE IT with a name you will remember.

Go look at it in the folder.

The Prefix it uses is how your old paints should look for them work,

Heya, sorry to bother. The instructions here are very clear, and I totally get it! I'v messed with paint alot, have a beloved skin and edit other skins alot. So I understand this, and the instructions are a simple edit.

But....I'v done this and have no paint files showing up that I can load still. =/
what I did, I made a copy of my skin, renamed it with natural added. Didint work, so I renamed it again to the exact name you have posted as an example, and even that didint work.

No avaliable paintings load when I go to paint my own character. My ark runs on an external SSD, if thats of any consequence.

Any idea or suggestions?

Hi there! Never fear your friendly nude hippy farming nude humanoid mod maker here!

There is still a work around!

Download Ark Paint, open your saved paint file and copy it. Next open your saved paint file you wish to use and paste it there. Badda boom badda bing-a-ding-a-ling.

Now, about the other method not working... I am unsure as to what you are doing because I am very sleepy - 1:49 a.m, and i super high on a mountain searching for the path to the right.

Ciao for now, let me know how it goes!

I would love to make my figure golden, or chrome silver! Or even to make it looking like moss-overgrown ancient stone! Can you make this all possible?

In fact, can you create a mod that adds 25 or even 100 new colors where the user can define them in an ini file with common color codes, color names, and materials needed to mix them?
