has anyone used it and finds that it works well?

I'm sad this has been abandoned, it would have been a good addition to mods for my potato computer.

is it possible to optimise the entire game since the shit devs wont do it : /

is it possible to add a Ramp / sloped roof that can connect 2 Normal sloped roof which are Perpendicular wo each other? Or is there any other mod taht implements that?

Are you still doing Ark mods? I have a question: does your mod also add new snap point to ceilings and foundations? In particular, I am in need to mount a pillar not to the center or to one of the four corners of a ceiling or foundation, but to the middle of any of its four edges.

Otherwise, I suggest the idea of a mod that adds HALF and QUARTER ceilings and foundations.
- Thatch
- Adobe
- Wood
- Stone
- Concrete
- Glass
- Steel

I dont think its compatible with S+ since it adds new items in tbh I dont have a definitive answer but Im assuming that is the case

its compatible with S+ mod?

Excited to see where this mod goes!

Im keen to see the wood/stone varients 2

Im keen to see the wood/stone varients

Alright no problem, i just feared that it was abandoned and since its a hobby, take your time to do it good

yes, i'm working on it. obviously it is a freetime hobby. then it's not a priority.
work come first and study second

is this mod still being updated or worked on ?

good idea! ^^

I just wish we had low polygon replacer for all building parts that arent furniture

sorry for adding a 2nd comment (edit isn't possible) what i don't get from your example images:
instead of altering the sloped roof (which aesthetically needs the overlap) why not add a ramp (borrow it from the "wood" tier) ?

actually, the real "power of the game" partly comes from the quirky build system. Due to that, Ark's the sandbox survival game with the most building tutorials out there as the possibilities are endless. "fixing" that is basically turning the buildsystem into a dime a dozen state..

in other words: i'm not sure you're on the right path if you're "fixing" snaps in favour of graphics quality.

need the same mod but with the ability to replace the vanilla structures, not to add another structures... Erf so interesting but...

Servers will be up 15/05/2019.

info on: http://slpk.addns.org/

Do you have a server up so we can check out the mod?

Very nice! Yet again, another mod that should just be part of the game as the default building blocks.... lol
Well done!

this mod adds new structures, you can disable the vanilla structures listed in the description if you want. but it s not an override

Does this mod add alternate versions or replace the vanilla ones?

e.g. 1727315774

at the top the numbers on the end, same for every single mod

Hello, can i have the ID please?

4000 polygons vs 500



Ill pick 500 thanks


Great mod, the devs should send you a paycheck FOR DOING THEIR WORK


- from my Skyrim modding days, 500 polis look almost the same as 4000, 4k is just lazy and unoptimized. Performace wise, 500 is much more friendly to your GPU. I will recommend this mod to anybody I can.

We need a mod like this to optimize every single asset of this game, or the devs need to do it themselves.....but I doubt it,,,Ark counts as a finished product lol.

bella fratm buona fortuna

Great job doing the devs work! it's amazing seeing the community love trying to fix what shouldn't be as issue in the first place! And actually make good headway doing it! Keep up the great work. One can now put up a building big enough for 2 giga and not get frame drops looking at it :P

I mean those people. You people give me hope in humanity. My brain hurts.

Let me see if I followed your direction clearly. I opened the DefaultUserSettings.ini in the ark/shootergame/config folder which I accessed by going into my local files by right clicking on the Ark game in the Steam game menu (and people wonder why they make youtube videos about this shit). There I added the command. Is this mod going to make building (the most heavily advertised and marketed feature about this game) a realistic enterprise? Fucking unbelievable the state of incompletion companies have the nerve to peddle off onto consumers without so much as adding fucking tutorial content. You people make me sick.

Thx for your hard work

Devs need to stop taking HUGE SHITS into their consumers mouths.

Tek is in plans!

Tek in plans as well? I rly like how metal parts looks like.

Can you make this mod replace S+?

Will this mod be compatible with Structures Plus?

not colorable at the moment :( but i m working on it!

This might be a promising building mod if you get all structures in the game. are these Colorable?

Ooooh will definitely keep an eye on this :D

Loving the ideas in this mod so far!
I have a friend once told me they refuse to use official metal pieces because of the rust effect. makes it look old, dirty, unkempt.

Yours dont show rust in the pictures, I love that!

Everything you show in the pics I wish were in Ark official!

Other building things in Official I dont like:
1) Sloped roofs (snapped to sloped walls) are slightly offset. Place one on one side, then place one on the other side, then continue until they meet in the middle, but they dont line up, there is a gap. Also, when there are snap points on both sides of the sloped roof, these roof pieces often fail to place in the same place as the ghost/preview indicates.

2) When Ark updated Greenhouse to have more HP, they messed something up with the Greenhouse wall's hitbox. It's hitbox pokes up above ceilings placed above it, so I keep tripping over the walls that are under ceilings, and have to change my builds to make sure I dont have Greenhouse Walls directly under floors.

I have reported both of these issues to survivetheark, with video... and those reports were months (or years) ago, so I gave up hope they would fix it.

In GUS
[ServerSettings]
AlwaysAllowStructurePickup=true

Which command do you use?

yes you can make structures always pickupable

how about more pictures of what this mod has

Sounds like a very worthy project, i wish you very good luck and a lot of thanks for the effort you are making to fix WC game for them.

structures are pickup able for 30 seconds, at the moment the mod contains only metal structures but i m working on it to add : wood, stone, weapons and others.
If i m not wrong you can modify the pickup able timer in game.ini

are structures pickup able - because if they are I will stop using s+, also is it just metal stuff? how far does this mod go exactly?

because there is a possibility that a player want to use a mix of both structures :)
As player i'd like to feel free to choose , it s my opinion!
