@xXMagnusXx you are the MVP for saving everyone time, thank you

I figured it out. You gotta edit the GameUserSettings.ini file located at [SteamInstallDrive]Steam\steamapps\common\ARK\ShooterGame\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor

I don't know for sure, but you probably gotta run the game once with this mod installed to get the settings file to update. After that, close the game and edit the settings file with notepad. The entries for this mod should be towards the very bottom of the file. Some of the entries might not be there. If not, simply copy paste them to a new line from this mod's description page and tweak them to your liking.

Notable highlights:
TeleportDinosMaxDragWeight=999 will allow you to bring Gigas into boss arenas.
BossArenaAllowsCryopods=True will let you use cryopods in boss arenas.
PreventClimbers=False will let you bring climbing dinos like Thylas into boss arenas. (Just heads up that the Thyla's bleed debuff has no effect on bosses.)

I also don't know how to configure. Looked around in the mod files but didn't see anything that looked like a config file.

@F8nted it bypasses the mission requirements completely, so anyone can activate it or go to the boss fight when activated.

does the ''gen2 skip missions required'' allow anyone to bypass the missions or does someone still need to do the missions to active it but they can now bring their tribemates into the boss fight?

I did destroywilddinos on my singleplayer and nothing is spawning. I been going around for more than 20 minutes but nothing. Do you think there is something messing with spawning?

Is there a config setting to take gigas to boss fights?
