I am unsure if i can update this as I lost the orginal dev files to a reformat due to a malware issue. I did remake mod. I will add link to new.

i'd love this if it's updated and won't delete my tame gigas if i remove it.

Sadly ark dev kit doesn't save dev kit files for steam in projects which is what I backed up. So had to repost new ID version.

Yes, it will be updated. I had been working on other mod project and lost my dev kit a few months back to a hard drive failing. I have redownloaded dev kit and just finish shader compiling. WIll see about an update soon. Luckly, I did have a back up of this mod so should be able to update this version.

Can I somehow change the spawn rate?
Will this get a update??

I'm not sure how to increase the spawn rate either due to lack of dino tag name. Is it Gigant or something like GigantPawn?

Does it need to be first in the load order as well? I am running a mod that gives The Island lvl 150 dinos like The Center does and that needs to be first in the load order. Also this is just on SP.

Same here. I did the spawn test-which was a success-but I went to all the spots I usually see gigas and there weren't any. This is on The Island by the way. I did destroywilddinos and your command to just destroy the vanilla gigas. Neither helped spawn any of your gigas.

What would i need to do in my game.ini to incease the spawn for your gigas, idk why but i have destroywilddinos a lot and cant find them at all. I know you nerfd their spawn because of a bug but is there anyway i can increase it?

Alright so ill try waiting it out then, Thanks a lot its an awesome mod man

I have same issue on the center. I did some research and it seems to be a game bug on the center. Spawns just need fixed. I have spent hours trying to fix it myself seems to balance out over time tho.

This Mod ruined the dino spawns on the center map for me, Brontos, paracers, Trikes and Gigantopithecus's are literally spawning EVERYWHERE. I have it first in my load order, killed all wild dinos serveral times but nothing changes. any ideas?

Can you make it so they can go on rafts? I really want to be able to take my newly tamed Giga back to my base on a different island in the center.

Thanks, no more problems.

That is correct once you destroy them the mod will overwrites them when spawning in.

It works now, thanks to the spawn code I could confirm that it works, just one more question though. In order to make no normal gigas ever spawn, and only this mod's one, all I need to do is destroy the wild gigas like the description says? The mod does the rest and overwrites the old ones, correct? Just to make sure I am not missing something again.

Sorry about description not sure why it keeps doing that. Are you running on a server? If so it maybe a bad download with steam. I use Ark server manager and you need to check the mod copy setting under setting to prevent bad steam downloads.Let me know I can always recook it and reupload if needed. But, last I killed one it was working on my server. Now I havent killed one since new patch tho. Will test that too when I get a chance.

I'm not sure fi I did something wrong, but this mod does not seem to work at all. I've installed it, didn't work, I moved it to first in the load order, didn't work, I made it the only mod active, didn't work, I deleted the mod and resubscribed and it reinstalled, but it still didn't work. Everytime I spawn one in for a test, it fails, it's always the standard unmodded giga, it doesn't help that your description got cut off again, all I see at the bottom is "cheat SpawnDino", so I have no idea what to do now?

Thank you for this mod, i was afriad to go on half the island in fear i would run into a giga even with max level dino's.

This should override them.

Has this been impacted by the Dev's recent giga nerfs, or does it override them?

Seems like a good idea. I just play on sp on the center. Only had this for a day so far no issues as of yet. Kinda hard to tell you if there's anything wrong yet because well the center is kinda messed up with spawning rates to begin with in my opinion. Alot different then the island for sure. I have not seen any giganotosaurus since putting this mod on this morning but honestly I'm not complaining at the moment lol. Besides that I tend to notice the gigas seem to be spawning weird on the center anyway. Like most of the time I'm on the center jungle island and gigas are everywhere there but fly away and come back they disappear anyway and pop up somewhere else. I don't know where I'm going but the map seems buggy to begin with so don't be to hard on yourself. Anyway I'll post if I see anything really weird

Spawn should be close to right now let me know.

Just wanted to check have trouble up dating my dev kit. Hopefully I can get the dev kit updated tonight. @ZatroGamer thx for spell checking me not my best area and I do have word installed just notepad N++ lol.

Btw you put "exsistant" instead of existent in your last sentence along with "trail and error" which is kinda funny but it should be trial and error.

Fixed description. Hope to get to increasing spawn rate tomorrow.

It was in description it got cut off will fix.

Could you try increasing the spawn chance? Also, what is the entity ID for the nerfed Giga?

That might revert it back to the "spawning like cockroaches" issue again, as I do see a lot of random herbivores where Gigas should probably be spawning instead. (Burnt Island for example)

You could try increasing it though.

I do have the spawn set low I can increase it.

No I use the center.

I enabled this mod but now Gigas don't spawn at all. Is it incompatible with The Center?

yes he does.

Does the nerfed Giga have the same amount of torpor as the vanilla Giga?

I edited the tamed values for health and damage to not change. Let me know if it worked I didn't test it yet.

k will see what I can do.

@Draco1122 Remove the taming penalties or else taming it will make Paper dinos. Giga ger -80% Health when tamed and a massive damage reduction.

The only real concern I have is whether nerfed giga, after being tamed, can take on a wild giga of equal level or not.

I didnt edit the taming stat's not sure will need to do testing on that. He is still hard to tame.

How does the nerf impact taming stats?

@ Bianca- Did you already use the mod or was that vanilla?
The thing is, I will try out this mod on my server the very moment when I know that the tamed ones don´t get the nerf anymore.
Otherwise it would be pointless to me

I was comparing an Untamed and Tamed Giganto and was shocked. I have been tracking a lvl 66 Giganto for the past few days and preparing materials to knock it out and tame but got very frustrated when i saw that a wild lvl 1 Giganto would be able to wreck my tamed lvl 66 one.

Thanks! Was tired of this overpowered freak!

lol
