[@ItzTwonk]

for all the babys crying on the ini i do not agree with it also, with this video being out it is being shown that its still a thing and HOPEFULLY wildcard patch it, BUT For now considering the game is not optimzied in the slightest and alot of people are stuggling to even load up the game this way is going to help them to be able to play!

[@bertlesbertgh2290]

this is so SAD... not judging you

[@Fawkes789]

Totally understandable but ini manipulation is one of the reasons why I'm hoping the ps5 version is decent cause I hate playing solo and people having ini's to remove foliage etc and scout bases.

[@SirSmokeAlot420x]

What was the command for the "render one" that make it checkered floor and no trees in the surrounding radius?

[@pointii]

after i type these command sin console and i restart game it wont save and i have to type in again how to fix ?

[@lander5512]

broo ty soo much this honestly such a good guide

[@Raiinzy]

How can I make my console commands launch options on either steam or in files? I’m sick of putting it in every single time

[@imbapjxs]

which one could it be that disables loot crate beacons? Can't see them anymore :(

[@mahki80]

Why do i have camera interpolation option greyd out

[@soyayourpantsgamer5819]

How do you change them back like the foliage one

[@MonkeyD_Bee]

show instance foliage isnt working for me

[@alanscott7762]

way to go show all the fks how to fk the game for everyone else great

[@Nosferatuhound]

Can you tell me how to reset it all back to default

[@joshcole9325]

Very helpful bro went from 20-30fps to 100 you saved my ass

[@ThatsOk83]

Every time I try to boost fps it somehow makes it worse instead

[@dmarshall.dev.]

I play with a 3080 and on high, with no reductions i stay above 60 frames. The whole point of survival pvp is using the environment to your advantage. Set up ambushes ect. Swetty scrubs that set to the most potato mode as possible kills the game for everyone. To try and sell it as saying it nakes the game better is ridiculous.

[@vizo5945]

Some people need these settings cause their graphics cards are not as good as yours

[@dmarshall.dev.]

@vizo5945 there is no excuse to go the extreme low he shows in the last couple mins of game. You would literally have no GPU if you needed to go that low

[@Xh4iZy]

How to put it back to normal

[@Rodrigo-lv7ky]

Can you join official with these? Or is this for single player my computer cant run it

[@justinjohnson1090]

Do these settings stay? Or do I have to do this every time I play

[@user-mj5co1tu4t]

The show instances foliage isn’t working for me

[@Brizzi1992]

my console wont work, i activatet the option in the settings and also bound a key for it. can somebody help me pls?

[@IJDAI]

I believe there is a setting to actually turn console commands on dont quote me on that

[@itatedaduro]

ini for see underwater i dnt see

[@capone8752]

how can i go back and disable these later, or just reset back to default with what i put into the console?

[@ItzTwonk]

just restart your game :)

[@ItzTwonk]

just to clarify I ALSO DO NOT AGREE WITH INI!

[@dmarshall.dev.]

Then quit teaching everyone how to do it. This is like people making mesh videos, trying to make it seem like they are doing the community a favor. I know I am now requesting a refund and unnistalling

[@calebdangerh]

Then get your audience to reach out to wild card to remove this whole thing out instead of just showing how to do it. You can show it but obviously guide your community to the right direction because you have the capability to do so.

[@dmarshall.dev.]

Agree with guiding the community to where to report, and request wildcard to fix it. Just click baiting the community to watch a video, thinking it is an easy way to improve frames. Instead people watch an exploit to cheat. I will support the community by not supporting this youtuber. I would encourage all to do the same

[@BLANK487]

i dont agree with but hey im money hungery so it will bring clicks so fuck it

[@ItzTwonk]

me making this video will put exposure on it meaning hopefully it gets patched u good?@@BLANK487

[@14th_creed6]

What’s the render one

[@cypek2204]

after i paste theese lunch options my ark won't lunch up i just see black screen, can someone help me?

[@ItzTwonk]

Try using just the high one and use all cores

[@SHELBY-]

what's ur graphic cards ?

[@RealAstroYT]

why dlss off

[@smokeshow2351]

PvP in Ark was awful to begin with, this just makes me not want to play it at all now. Had high hopes ASA would fix things like this, guess not.

[@comfortsnail6342]

Be patient. Alot to iron out...one day of general play is a months worth of in house testing

[@ainotameni3141]

🤓

[@luiscastaneda3793]

Why not use them ? I don't get why people cry about this when everyone can do it and its in the game, real problems are exploits like mesh rb dupe godmode the REAL problems of ark

[@Klasic_]

still working??

[@tars132]

instanced grass or foliage doesnt work for me.

can they finally remove the options to do shit like this

[@IMMatthu]

been dreaming of stealth jungle guerrilla warfare for like 8 years now lmfao

[@Dire-Sky]

Really needs to be removed.. people abuse it so much.

[@docz2010]

Dude all this does not let the game look like ASA - if done together. BUT, I get it, people can pick and choose what they want based on their rig. Great info. However it really sucks that people have to do this BS in the first place.

[@harlanhughes5029]

so wildcard fixed nothing wtf

Como siempre

yeah it just sucks the ini and meshing was all i wanted fixed @@Max-zq7ze

Next week this will be the META and everyones game will look like sh1t. I was hoping that they would address these things, but No they made it worse lol. I cant imagine anyone will be able to pvp with foilage on if everybody has it to off. Same as the old view distance setting... I have 0 desire to buy the game now! thanks for the video!

[@darth8515]

shut up drone your horrid

[@JediTiga]

I agree. Poor people with shit GPUs shouldn't be able to play the game if they can't run it properly with proper settings.

[@RafaelDz]

Who do this bro wtf!??

[@mohsinopiani]

Why have DLSS off if it gives you more FPS?

[@Aesha-69]

Это миф

You need more GPU of the same type for it to work better if they are not the ame will just make things worse

Go into settings under controls, you can bind in there. check advanced too, not sure of its in general or advanced area (i'm at work right now BUT they re in there) just make sure you SAVE the settings. As I found out when you don't, the settings revert the second you get out of the menu, lol. Save, save, save!

how

[@McMarc_1993]

I don't really get it. Why would you play the new pretty ASA just to turn down the graphics and make it look like a piece of shit for visibility? Can't imagine enjoying that, ever, because on top of that ARK has to be one of the worst games for PVP anyway. But I guess, if y'all are having fun, keep having fun.

[@ItzTwonk]

cause of how poorly optimized this game is i have a really top spec pc and still struggle

[@AlifriesFP]

how much fps do you have on 4k ?? 10?

[@ItzTwonk]

@@AlifriesFP I don’t play 4k mate there’s no need to play that high only on single players to maybe enjoy graphics

PvP Visibility, Optimization, people who want to cross play, console players wanting mods.

I guess no point in pvp then lol at least pve players will enjoy the game
