Let's Start w/ Settings!
The settings I use are meant to be fair, and keep the game challenging and fun. It really focuses on time-saving, as not everyone has hours to wait for one Rex egg to be laid, hatch, and the baby dino to grow to maturity.... and then do that 19 more times. Let's get started:

GAME RULES

STRUCTURE
Structure Resistance: 0 (don't break my house.. 😑)
Disable Structure Placement Collision: ON

WORLD
XP Multiplier: 3
Taming Speed Multiplier: 3
Harvest Yield Multiplier: 2
Allow Speed Leveling: ON
Allow Flyer Speed Leveling: ON
Maximum Difficulty: ON (for 150 max wild level)
PVE NEEDS TO BE OFF

RULES
Enable Crosshair: ON
Use Singleplayer Settings: ON

ADVANCED

PVE
(idk if this section matters for a pvp world, but better safe than sorry)
Disable Structure Decay: ON
Flyer Carry: ON

PVP
Dino Decay: OFF

WORLD
Mating Interval: 0.1
Lay Egg Interval: 1 (0.5 to half the time)
Egg Hatch Speed: 5
Anyone Can Baby Imprint Cuddle: ON
Baby Mature Speed: 5
Baby Cuddle Interval: 0.2
Baby Imprint Stat Scale: 5 (could be less, but this is the settings I prefer)

XP MULTIPLIERS
Unclaimed Creature Kill: 2.5 (sacrifice Farm those baby Rexes!)

MISC
Allow Raid Dino Feeding: ON
Supply Crate Loot Quality: 2 (ASA doesn't need as much help as ASE did, leave this alone if you are content with the drop loot as it is.)
Show Floating Damage Text: ON
Some Game.ini Anyone?
Some things can't be changed in the settings, but instead forces you to change the world in two different game files! Here is where you will (likely) find the files:

NOTE: this has to be done after you create the world, or the "Saved" folder will not exist yet.

C:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\ARK Survival Ascended\ShooterGame\Saved\Config\Windows
You can also get to the game folder by right-clicking on your game in Steam, hover "Manage", and click "Browse Local Files".

Game.ini

Find the note document named Game.ini, click on it to edit it.
Directly under [/script/shootergame.shootergamemode] add this line:
  • BabyImprintAmountMultiplier=5
This makes reaching 100% imprint much easier, especially since we changed the timing so drastically. Most large dinos will still need multiple imprinting sessions, so I still find it fair.

Easy enough! Save and go to the next file!

GameUserSettings.ini

This is the same process, only you will be adding this line of text under [ServerSettings].
  • DisableCryopodFridgeRequirement=True
ASA added the annoying cryofridge dependency when it comes to using your cryopods. Nobody wants to carry a cryofridge and generator with fuel around everywhere.. I say get rid of it!

Save and you should be good to go!
Mods to Make Your Ascension Epic
So, thankfully we have amazingly talented people who create mods for quality of life, etc. Here is my list of those mods! Thanks to all these creators!

FOR YOUR CONVENIENCE I WILL BE PUTTING THE NAME, PRODUCT ID, AND CURSEFORGE LINK UNDER EACH ONE FOR SERVER MAINTENANCE

"Necessary" Mods

Quality Of Life Mods
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This mod is still in development. but it should do a lot of the same things S+ did for evolved, including pulling of items with buttons right in your inventory!
X-Men (Mutation) Reminders
So! You have a lot of Ark memorized and down to a science. Now time to breed dinos! Not just any dinos.. BOSS KILLING DINOS. You could just imprint a bunch of strong Megatheriums, Rexes, and Therizinosaurs then call it a day, but I am here with a chart from Apollo_Syx on Reddit! Thanks for the most concise chart I have ever seen, so easy to understand!

Apollo_Syk's Mutation Guide



Honestly, I have found that trying mate the mutated female with the original unmutated male, extremely time-consuming and not worth it in my opinion. So, for me, I will only keep mutated males. 🤷‍♀️

MUTATION REMINDERS
  • A good thing to remember is that a mutation is a percentage chance. One male can breed with multiple females, all eggs having the chance to have a new mutation. However, if the female has the mutation, it can only lay one egg occasionally with the same (low) percentage as the others. Quantity is what is the best for us here. So only breed for mutated males.

  • Also, not sure how true this is but.. apparently as long as one genetic side (Maternal or Paternal) does not go beyond the 20/20 mutations, you can keep mutating the other side. Another reason to keep mutations to only the Paternal side. You can check this by clicking on the "Ancestry" button in your dino's inventory.
Here is a good example I found online:

This is why I recommend the mod Awesome Spyglass. The numbers next to the stats of the dinos tell you where the levels went. Here are my 2 Base Rexes, tamed wild at 150. (Normally that would make this dinos level 224 NOT 225,150+74 lvls for 100% effective tame= 224 but we are going to ignore that... FOR SCIENCE!)
Also ignore "Tribe of Human".. I renamed my character later in game..

This is the female, you can see numbers like 33-0-0 on Melee and 37-0-0 on Health. The numbers go as such:

Random Levels Pretame-Mutation Levels-Levels Added MANUALLY After Tame


So, here I have these Rexes that I haven't added any levels to since I only use them for breeding. However, it is SUPER important to remember that the highest stats have a higher chance of getting more points added to that stat.

With that in mind, here is my male Rex:



Here we see a MUCH better set of stats with 41 into Melee and 51 into health. This makes it much more likely that we will get mutations on these stats! Let's see one of their mutated babies!



So cute! And a health mutation! But there is something not right here.. can you tell what it is?
That's right! This baby Rex has it's mother's base health(37) and NOT it's father's(50). Making this mutation useless. A+!

  • This☝️is why I would make sure my "Base Male" and "Base Female(s)" dinos have the same stats. This way, your base unmutated male and female(s) will be the unmutated offspring from your original dinos. Just keep breeding the originals until you get a male and a female(s) with the same stats. Once you get one gender with the stats you want, getting the second is a LOT easier... ~sWeEt HOmE AlaBAmA~🎤

TLDR; Breed identical stats onto your new unmutated parents. When satisfied, go for the mutations.

  • It is always a good idea to keep your original unmutated male and female dinos in case you make a mistake down the line and need to start over!

  • It is also good to note that there can only be a max of 255 mutated points into one stat. For instance, My female rex, if mutated fully could have: 33-255-0 on Melee and 37-255-0 on health! After one stat is capped(or close to it), move on to another stat or call it good and fight the dragon!
    ___________________________
    P.S: Easy Mutations is a good mod for quick mutations! Remember C:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\ARK Survival Ascended\ShooterGame\Saved\Config\Windows?
    Easy Mutations,928603,https://www.curseforge.com/ark-survival-ascended/mods/easy-mutations;

    Good! Go to GameUserSettings.ini, search for MaxMutationStacks, and change the 1 to 20! That way this mod actually works with your game!
    If it in't there, add:

    [EasyMutations]
    MaxMutationStacks=20 (Makes the 20x potion work, makes 40 poinns be added to a stat. 20x 2points=40 points)
    RemoveMutationLimit=False (unless you want to remove to 20/20 limit, then change to =True)
    MutationTimer=1800 (Make number larger for potions to last longer)

    under Server Settings!

    P.P.S: There is also a mod called Mutation Kibble!
    Mutation Kibble,1118753,https://www.curseforge.com/ark-survival-ascended/mods/mutation-kibble;
    This seems to work very well, although I prefer Easy Mutations over this mod. It even comes with kibble to change genders of your baby dinos (keeping the paternal line~) and a kibble to reset the mutation counter. I probably won't use that one, but I thought I would mention it!

    DO NOT REPLACE YOUR UNMUTATED FEMALE(S) WITH MUTATED ONES. THIS WILL CLUTTER UP THE MATERNAL LINE!

    For other help, refer to this handy-dandy guide on dododex! 😎

Quick Backup Reminder!
If you want multiple saves on one pc, you have to create backups!

Start by going to: C:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\ARK Survival Ascended\ShooterGame

Copy the Saved folder to a safe place.
We copy the files to make sure that it doesn't bug out during transfer and you lose your world, better safe than sorry!
You now have a backup of the worlds currently saved on your device. (The Saved folder is your backup.) You can rename the folder so you know which world it was, just remember to change it back to Saved when you want to put it back or switch it out.

Feel free to delete the OG Saved folder (or just click Delete All Singleplayer Saves in-game) and start a new world! This will create a new Saved folder with your new world.

Replace the Saved folder in:
C:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\ARK Survival Ascended\ShooterGame
with whichever backup(Saved folder) you plan on using~ Voila! Multiple save files!

NOTE: Creating backups is ALWAYS risky.. Be sure you have done it right before starting a new save! Measure twice, cut once!




TLDR; Switch out the Saved folder in your game files.
Server Maintenance
So You Want A Server?
If you want to build a dedicated server you can start by downloading this:
https://asadedicatedmanager.eu/

ADMINS:
In order to set your admins you will need the EOS (Epic Online Services) ID of the players you want to appoint. You can fins this by having them enter a singleplayer game and entering whoami into the console. (use ~ to enter console)

Your EOS ID will then be displayed on the screen, usually at the top or bottom once you exit the command console.

or have them download this mod:
EOS ID Helper (CrossPlay)

EOS ID Helper (CrossPlay),980463,https://www.curseforge.com/ark-survival-ascended/mods/eos-id-helper;

NEXT >>>>

Go here and create an account:

https://gist.github.com/

Add the EOD's for every admin on your server, 1 per line like the allowedcheater list from ASE, click the arrow next to "Create secret gist" and change it to public then click it to create the gist, now click Raw in the top right of the text area and copy the url

In GUS.ini add this under server settings with the url for the EOD's between the quotes

AdminListURL=""
Thanks to fish250505 on Reddit for this explanation!

ASA DEDICATED MANAGER

_____________________________________________________________

This app linked above is pretty simple to use and its FREE! The only time you would have to pay is for convenience services. And, given you explore and learn the app, they are not necessary at all! The links and product IDs I have provided for the mods is one way you bypass the paid option. You can find all the information needed on the mods CurseForge website.

PORT FORWARDING

...yikes. I'm still figuring this one out. Here are some links I browsed while learning:

https://www.reddit.com/r/HomeNetworking/comments/i7ijiz/a_guide_to_port_forwarding/

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jfSLxs40sIw&ab_channel=Tinkernut

...good luck. I still am having troubles with this.
Thanks for Coming to my Ted Talk
Thanks so much for taking the time to read my guide! I hope it helps a lot of you, and may your ascension be swift and painless!

Let me know if you think something should be added to my guide! I am always down for suggestions!

Recommended console commands:

Omit after **
r.LightMaxDrawDistanceScale 10 **extends light culling to dino render distance
r.Color.Grading 0 **disables color over saturation, depends on the map if 0 or 1
grass.sizeScale 0.5 **grass.densityScale 0 hides grass, but this shrinks it instead

\ARK Survival Ascended\ShooterGame\Binaries - create a text file here named Start .Add above commands in. In game, open console, enter exec Start.txt to apply commands.

Mods
Auto Doors by Jods -- Self explanatory. Behemoth Gates I turn off "Stay Open for" and set timer to 10s.
Silent structures by srdev - Set volume of structures
Dino Book by nevcairiel -- Search in game how much food needed to tame.
Vanilla with Sprinkles by DelilahEve -- Does a lot, but it is a must have when you turn off the options not want. Must have part; in inventory or dino's, displays base stats/mutations/points used. Syntac's video for more details.

"Here we see a MUCH better set of stats with 41 into Melee and 51 into health. This makes it much more likely that we will get mutations on these stats! Let's see one of their mutated babies!"

I can't confirm that, only traits can increase the probability.

Admin Panel is *chef's kiss* thanks for mentioning it! :3
Kynadre 7 月 11 日 上午 8:42 
Bless you!

You should check out the following QOL Mods:
Visual Storage
Super Spyglass
admin panel

And I also recommend:
Arkitect Structures Remastered
Klinger Additional Structures
Klinger Additional Rustic Building
Klinger Additional Reinforced Concrete Building

One of my favorite game settings is reducing the radius of respawns around player and around base. That helps too with aesthetics and resource respawns!
