seems there are many issues that have arisen from the latest patches since the new map launched.

Hi Ace, are you still running these?

I'm installing the game now, so will try to join tomorrow if so.

Also I found some stuff suggesting that if people on epic wanna join then there is setting you will need to enable!

New map looks great, will stream a new playthrough twitch.tv/tonyturbo78 if anyone wants to have a look.

@Ace Modder Hi mate. Are your servers down, we can't see them.

Nexus18 · 6 Jul 2020 at 17:01

Yup haven't been able to get onto the crystal isles one all day, had the day of work too

TonyTurbo78 · 6 Jul 2020 at 21:42

It's still down

Ace Modder · 7 Jul 2020 at 14:16

rebooting the servers now, they were up but the game client must not have been seeing them. Wildcard you are crap!

Unfortunately still not showing for me

@Ace Modder
tried joining via the steam server browser and got a message saying to ensure the server has all the latest mods up to date

crystal isles server froze and gone down again @Ace Modder

Was on a high level arge fighting an alpha so chances are may have lost this now....

Is the server being restarted every night to avoid the lag and issues like this?

Ace Modder · 9 Jul 2020 at 16:18

Right @Nexus18 I have created a schedule now where the servers are closed automatically at 3:45am uk time, at 3:50 I have scheduled an ARK server software update check and install.
then at 4:20am the ARK servers will all reload, so now we have a daily update check and ARK server reboot.

I'm looking into seeing if it is possible to automate the mods installed for updates during the down time also. Not sure this is possible though, and if it is, I need to learn how to set it up.

Nice one! Thanks Ace.

Ace Modder · 9 Jul 2020 at 17:21

sorted... Mods will now auto update when the servers load.

I might jump on this been looking for an excuse to jump back into ark, I guess I'm still bitter about losing my alpha tribe status on official haha

Ace Modder · 9 Jul 2020 at 21:24

we have a nice little community building on my servers, 4-5 people from here and a few people recruited by TonyTurbo78 via him streaming the game on twitch etc.

Just loaded this up through the Epic launcher, but couldn't find the server.

Also for some reason loading the game also loads up the Oculus launcher :confused:
