Server Configuration(Optional)
By default, Crystal Wyverns will now spawn in areas of the map where Wyverns or Quetzals would normally spawn, but this can be modified.
At the end of your server's GameUserSettings.ini, create a section named [Crystal Wyverns], and a subcategory called Character Classmates.
To determine which class you need to use in order for them to spawn, use a site like Gamepedia[ark.gamepedia.com] to find the spawncode for that creature. Then, enter that spawn code after the equals sign of "Character Classmates". For more than one character classmate, separate the entries by a comma( , ).
In this example, Crystal Wyverns will spawn with Kairuku, and Ichthyosaurus (Yes, they will spawn under water!).
[Crystal Wyverns] Character Classmates= Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/Dinos/Dolphin/Dolphin_Character_BP.Dolphin_Character_BP, Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/Dinos/Kairuku/Kairuku_Character_BP.Kairuku_Character_BP
To adjust the Spawn Percentage Chance of the Crystal Wyverns, change your server's(or single player) GameUserSettings.ini to add the following (lower number means fewer i.e. 0.5 would be half):
[Crystal Wyverns] Spawn Percentage Chance=1 //default Spawn Percentage Chance=1
To adjust the Item Entry Weight(the percentage of Crystal Wyverns that will spawn out of the total number of characters in the spawn zone), add the following to your server(or single player) GameUserSettings.ini (lower number means less i.e. 0.25 means one in four items[Crystal Wyverns] ):
[Crystal Wyverns] Item Entry Weight=0.33 //default Item Entry Weight=0.33
The Crystal Wyverns now have flight controls like the Tapejara, but this can be changed by changing the following line in your GameUserSettings.ini. Setting this to "1" makes them fly like classic Wyverns would.
[Crystal Wyverns] Classic Flight=1
To create your own custom color sets[www.rapidtables.com] for Crystal Wyverns, add the following to your GameUserSettings.ini(color entries are separatedt by a "!"). At least four color definitions are recommended, and it will use defaults if there are less than two color definitions:
[Crystal Wyverns] Color Definitions=lightgoldenrodyellow=250,250,210!palegoldenrod=238,232,170!khaki=240,230,140!goldenrod=218,165,32!gold=255,215,0!orange=255,165,0!darkorange=255,140,0!peru=205,133,63!chocolate=210,105,30!saddlebrown=139,69,19!sienna=160,82,45 //default Color Definitions=lavender=230,230,250!thistle=216,191,216!plum=221,160,221!,violet=238,130,238!orchid=218,112,214!fuchsia=255,0,255!mediumorchid=186,85,211!mediumpurple=147,112,219!blueviolet=138,43,226!darkviolet=148,0,211!darkorchid=153,50,204!darkmagenta=139,0,139!purple=128,0,128!indigo=75,0,130
To add regular Wyverns to your map using this mod, add the following to your server(or single player) Game.ini and change where it says "Wyvern_Character_Blue_BP_PetCraftToo" here, to the Wyvern class of your choice(i.e. Wyvern_Character_BP_Lightning_C):
ConfigAddNPCSpawnEntriesContainer=(NPCSpawnEntriesContainerClassString="DinoSpawnEntriesWyvern_PetCraftToo_C ((AnEntryName="Fire Wyverns (1) -- Small Chance to be Mega",NPCsToSpawn=(BlueprintGeneratedClass'/Game/Mods/CrystalWyverns/Wyvern_Character_Blue_BP_PetCraftToo.Wyvern_Character_Blue_BP_PetCraftToo_C'),NPCRandomSpawnClassWeights=((FromClass=BlueprintGeneratedClass'/Game/Mods/CrystalWyverns/Wyvern_Character_Blue_BP_PetCraftToo.Wyvern_Character_Blue_BP_PetCraftToo_C',ToClasses=(BlueprintGeneratedClass'/Game/Mods/CrystalWyverns/Wyvern_Character_Blue_BP_PetCraftToo.Wyvern_Character_Blue_BP_PetCraftToo_C',BlueprintGeneratedClass'/Game/Mods/CrystalWyverns/MegaWyvern_Character_BP_PetCraftToo.MegaWyvern_Character_BP_PetCraftToo_C'),Weights=(1.000000,0.010000))),NPCsSpawnOffsets=((X=0.000000,Y=0.000000,Z=0.000000)),NPCsToSpawnPercentageChance=(0.000100),EntryWeight=0.330000),(AnEntryName="Wyverns (1)",NPCsToSpawn=(BlueprintGeneratedClass'/Game/Mods/CrystalWyverns/Wyvern_Character_Blue_BP_PetCraftToo.Wyvern_Character_Blue_BP_PetCraftToo_C'),NPCsSpawnOffsets=((X=0.000000,Y=0.000000,Z=0.000000),(X=0.000000,Y=680.000000,Z=0.000000),(X=0.000000,Y=-680.000000,Z=0.000000)),NPCsToSpawnPercentageChance=(0.000100),EntryWeight=0.330000),(AnEntryName="Wyverns (1)",NPCsToSpawn=(BlueprintGeneratedClass'/Game/Mods/CrystalWyverns/Wyvern_Character_Blue_BP_PetCraftToo.Wyvern_Character_Blue_BP_PetCraftToo_C'),NPCsSpawnOffsets=((X=0.000000,Y=0.000000,Z=0.000000),(X=0.000000,Y=680.000000,Z=0.000000),(X=0.000000,Y=-680.000000,Z=0.000000)),NPCsToSpawnPercentageChance=(0.000100),EntryWeight=0.330000))

i haven't found any crystal wyverns on my private The Island server. i have even tried to place them with anky and dodo spawns. i am afraid to download my cryopod crystal wyverns as i fear i will lose them
dreyn74  [developer] Mar 25, 2019 @ 10:10am 
@Tetra Try looking around where rex spawns are.
Tetra Mar 26, 2019 @ 8:32pm 
okay, thanks for the tip. i will add the mod to my private server again and look, without changing anything.
Tetra Mar 26, 2019 @ 9:21pm 
well i reloaded the mod, killed off all dino's on the private server, everything has respawned and i'm in the thick of rex country, no crystal wyverns
dreyn74  [developer] Mar 27, 2019 @ 8:40pm 
@Tetra I forgot to mention, they also spawn where Quetzals spawn.
Tetra Mar 27, 2019 @ 8:41pm 
this is The Island, and so far it doesn't appear they are spawning anywhere. so does this work for The Island? Quetzals don't spawn on The Island much according to the spawn map. Rexes spawn everywhere. i would like this mod to work :(

@Tetra The Island has Quetzal spawns, so the wyverns should also be found in that area.
Tetra Mar 27, 2019 @ 9:07pm 
according to the spawn map, there is only a thin grey cross mark, middle running north and south and another east to west. i'm trying the config change you mention above ... now i'm trying to find where i can REMOVE the blasted ichys .. hate those birds lol
i appreciate your time to assist me.

so far no spawns. quetzal is not spawning presently either, i did the game.ini change to have them spawn with dodo's and ankys and kairuku. i have a tek transmitter so i'm checking the dino scan. will let you know if i have any success .. hope so i want to deploy my crystal wyverns from the ISO Crystal map ...
Tetra Mar 27, 2019 @ 10:05pm 
yeh something is broken now, no quetzal spawn at all and no wyvern darn
dreyn74  [developer] Mar 28, 2019 @ 8:38pm

Tetra Mar 28, 2019 @ 8:52pm

@Tetra They are commonly found on the far West side of the map, and more common in the far South West.
Tetra Mar 30, 2019 @ 7:56pm
