[@miley6.915]

@@ivzuqii3001 tether in ark is a super annoying setting that non dedicated server have. And what it does is that when you go to far away from the host. You will auto teleport to the host and is doesnt matter if you are in inventory och riding a beasty managarmr you will always teleport to the host if you are to far away from him. And why this hell function is in the game is because all the ark maps is super huge and filled with npc and other stuff and it would be super laggy if the game rendered this with all players. And for the game to optimize it to not crash is shitty tethering.

Great trick never thought of that.

[@blakestation2632]

@@LemursCorner yeah me and my friends have been playing on non-dedicated for years and just starting to look into dedicated so I know lots of hacks like these lol One of my favorites is since the barrier prevents all players from leaving the area around the host when my friends die they respawn on the opposite side of the map (respawn random location in another biome) and this allows them to teleport straight to me (the host) without using beds meaning that the host is the only person who ever has to use a bed. This is great because it means that everyone is just trying frantically to defend the host at all costs because even if they die they just respawn right next to them/their stuff.

How can I play on the server when the host is offline? Or how do you host that type of session to where if you (the host) is offline then your tribe can play?

[@55inchSamsungTV]

You can't. Only way is if they just kept their console or pc on the entire time while it was running. Or you literally build a server hosting system to host all your servers for different games.

[@tponya]

Hey, so you cant use non dedicated server data for a dedicated server?

[@starattacks1407]

That’s what I wanna know

[@timothy_b03]

If I make a dedicated server on my computer can xbox players join it? I would use windows ark so there would be crossplay.

[@LemursCorner]

Yes I am publishing that video as I type this. It will be up in 1 hr 15 minutes once this comment posts at: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iZjHe3ide7yMnck

[@Gillmastiff]

I figured out how to do one on my xbox and I have to play on my pc as soon as I try to host on the pc xbox players can't join

[@Zuarak]

Can’t you just make a new account on Xbox and host it on that account and play on your main? Edit: I tested it out and no you can’t do that just so you know

[@alshabab1658]

How to you get past the black screen with all the admin stuff?

[@kateosborn480]

I’m on the same page

[@bercor6014]

You cant

[@ImRissk]

Cant

[@LemursCorner]

You can't on a dedicated.

[@DanielFrandsen7]

Dude i need to know how to enter my saved private server. So that me and my friends can go back to the same world, and not start over every time. Its on PS4 PLEEEEASE

[@soul_raven1]

Yeah i need help with that too

[@LemursCorner]

It should auto save to your PS4. So what ever system is hosting will hold the save. If you are running Non-dedicated same thing just on the same ps4 you play on (with a tether).

[@stevencasul9055]

@@LemursCorner I have the same problem and I’m still confused

[@chrisyoung3377]

So basically if i want to play with a friend on the ps4 without using a second console there will always be a tether regardless of what server I play on?

[@vvsPlatinum]

or pay nitrando money

[@austinstoner1988]

Chris Young Nitrado is well worth it. My gf and I pay 15 a month for a ten slot server. Can tether all settings to our exact specifications, it’s lovely

[@dancoerper6567]

Actually even with 2 consoles there is still a tether

[@loklanjaytl2375]

Ah yes The perfect game Where you need 2 consoles to play on your own server

[@desiraelukens]

sad to see this game go to waste bc of lazy devs. i just want to play with my friends, but public servers are over populated (or overrun with pillars) so i can’t even build a base & there’s literally not a way to play on my own map without buying another xbox and another game disc. deal breaker.

[@Coltyro1028]

1. Host non-dedicated session on Console, invite your friends. 2. Rent a server, invite your friends. 3. Setup your own server with cheap PC parts (can do this with $400 or less and is a way better option than using a second xbox), invite your friends. 4. Do the research, find a server already being hosted by someone with rules/mods that you'd enjoy. I play on a server that is PvP (no structure decay) but we all progress together with the story. No raiding or Griefing. You can find something similar regardless of platform. The game is a whole different experience when you stay off official servers.

[@englishbulldogretreat7766]

I just want to know how to make my dedicated sessions show up on the session list

[@thegamerhut2785]

Ye everyone has 2 consoles

[@LemursCorner]

Just giving information. I didn't make it that way.

[@gitafff]

And a pc ;D

[@Cedar23]

With the second pc to run the server do I have to launch windows and basically run ark on it ???

[@LemursCorner]

On a PC you can technically host and play from the same system if the system can handle it. Through Steam Command

[@TrmK123]

i always get connection timeout

[@JumpingOnion]

same

[@cemfinn8962]

Bro i want to know how to plau with an friemd and not what i can do in singleplayer

[@rdgmadman9670]

when i host a non dedicated server it just doesent let me put a password so it doesent start (pc) (steam)

[@gibby6423]

you can play split screen on ps4 and Xbox

[@yellomonky4272]

I have the epic games ark but whenever I search up best ark server hosts, all of them are only compatible with steam. Is it possible to use steam compatible server hosts for epic games?

[@Adamdw04]

I loaded my own non dedicated server Ieft before and I carnt find the server it's like it's disappeared how do I join back ?

[@doomsday-by8wx]

How can you make a cluster as well as increase stack size?

[@jasonlennox5879]

[@LemursCorner]

So you can homeshare on PSN. Here is a link on how: should save you a copy of the game and a Account! www.digitaltrends.com/gaming/how-to-gameshare-on-ps4/

[@kenimarquez830]

How to take the 200 meters Limit off!?

[@LemursCorner]

Play dedicated or if you are on PC you can lower it. Otherwise. Nothing you can do :(

[@Lizzy_6899]

If youre on pc, there are code generators. You can generate a code with your personal preferences, including the radius of the limit. Youll have to put the code somewhere in the files of the game. If not on pc, i dont think you can change it
