@shayne.oneill I would like to still work on this yes but at the moment real life is pressing down on me hard. The mod should still work, it changes no core files and unless the ark devs full on changed stuff around I see no reason why it would start having issues now. No ones reported any issues of such so far. Try reinstalling it and doing some tests in single player.

Not sure if your still working on this one. But there seems to be a problem where I cant learn this on any of my (maxed out) characters, with plenty of spare points. Is this just a problem I have?

thanks @SeaSharp, sorry to hear whats happened, just remember take 1 day at a time, accomplish small goals and you will be in a better place!

@DrunkMunki Yes sorry. A lot of things have been happening to me IRL that have impacted some things (like me ending up in a homeless shelter for a time....) Last time I looked into the heart issue I did narrow it down to a likely cause. I just never got around to fixing it when life took an harsh turn of events. I'm still in the prosess of getting life issues back on track so if you could hold out for a bit longer I'll see to it once I'm on a proper pc again.

@SeaSharp i sent you a PayPal message, any chance on fixing the corrupted heart issue?

@Mynf Thank you for letting me know. I think the cause might have been when I was working on adding a tribute converter as well, before scrapping it to make it its own mod. I'll look into it and make sure thing's didn't get crossed/left behind.

server I play on ran into a problem with corrupt hearts converting into unusable ones on server restart. The corrupt heart uasset you have in the mods files is the culprit, could you update that?

Do you have an INI command to change the speed at which the element is changed into digital element and vise versa?

@Silky Rough Glad you enjoy it. Next update will include a means to convert element dust to normal element. Mainly for those who don't have EX but are gathering dust from the tek dinos/traded element gachas. Requested from a server I play on as they have several players that don't have the DLC.

I like the way this handles element for transfer on my private cluster. It adds a feeling of "honesty" to the conversion far better than the many cheaty ways available. We can now run one of our maps as a dedicated boss farm and can transfer the element to our more favoured living map.

@saznrob If your server uses this mod, there is a forum you can use to post about it.

I'll give that a shot, but it happened apparently randomly well after any potential update.

@Shamadruu All I can think of is maybe a bad mod download/corruption in the update to the server? Try removing the mod in whole and re-downloading it to the server. . The crafting benches were not touched this update. All that was touched was the scale and crafting cost to the tek tier converters. The crafting benches were untouched. I'm also playing on a server that uses the mod and thus far there haven't been any issues.

The crafting bench for the items in this mod seems to have caused a crash, which resulted in a number of people that had transferred to that server after the last save having their inventories wiped. Upon loading the most recent save (note: these saves were made a few hours after the benches had been placed down), the crafting benches were gone from the map, but the transmitter and converts that had been created remained, and seemed to work fine. Later, the crafting benches vanished from all servers in the cluster with them when the server was automatically restarted. The transmitters and converters continue to work, as the bench caused so much trouble it is now banned and transmitters and converters cannot be crafted.

Any idea why this would be a problem?

Awesome, thank you for the update!

@Thoth Speaking of size. An update is along the way that should cut the size of the tek tier versions by nearly half. Given what they do and what not, I agree the huge size does look rather silly. You may need to pick up and replace it as with the scale down the placement location had to be shifted as it was normally set further away due to the normal size.

@Thoth It's not really much of an end game thing. For example you can fight gamma broodmother by level 30 min. lv45 for the ape, and lv55 min for dragon, lv70 min for the boss's on the center/rag . Thus why you can learn the first tier by level 50 as it felt like a good middle ground for the first tier that is more for getting started.

Yes while you might not be directly fighting the boss's yourself at such levels as you need the dinos to do it, you may come across new players that get carried though the fights that would like a means to transfer it early.

Sorry the tek ones are a bit bulky. I was kind of following the theme as with ark's own tek stuff in being big.

Thanks, it turns out I had the wrong transmitter, I had the normal one. It's a bit peculiar to have a normal tier and tek tier version of something that converts element, which is an end-game/tek tier item to begin with. Not complaining, I get why since someone asked you to make the mod. Everything is working good now, I just wish the tek transmitter/reconverter weren't so bulky. I actually vastly prefer the non-tek versions appearance and size-wise.

@Thoth also the two converters should be the same speed. I'll double check it.

@Thoth @Kannnabisss The speed of the converters has not changed. The normal converters are a tad slow, the tek ones are far more faster. This speed was a balance request some months ago by the server that requested the mod in the first place, as before the speed it went made the tek tier version uneeded for the most part.

I'll be going back and fixing the typos. Got to love it when your brain think's one thing and your hands type out something else :P

So to clarify the transmitter is slower, like 1/3rd the speed of the re-converter it seems and kind of buggy, it seems to pause at times for 10-20 seconds. It was fine prior to the update.

Love the changes but it seems even slower since the update. Shouldn't be a chore. :(

Just added this mod, surprised to see it updated right after. Very helpful mod. Only issue I can spot is typos of the word element and digital in some of the descriptions :D

Appreciate the stack size update. Is there anyway to get a speed setting for how fast it converts? Converting seems a bit too long. Anyways, thank you!

thank you.
please add more function,like this mod:

@123 Take your time no need to rush. We're lucky to even have this at all to begin with.

@WagFeliz The update to the devkit just came out a few daus ago adding in all the EX stuff. That means even more funzies to work with, and longer load times. Modding does take time, and I am not one to try and rush out a mod only for it to break the game or hasve duping exploits. Plus there are a LOT of tribute items, so it's taking a bit to do them all.

Also the kits running a bit slower with the new EX stuff. I really need to get an SSD just for the devkit to speed up this prossess.

Any knews about the tribute transmiter ???

@Mr. Steelfire it's shown in the screen shots. The Con Crafter at level 50.

What workbench do you need to craft the Tier 1 Transmitter?

@[GG] Nãtã§-[FLM]- I've addmittingly been enjoying Extinction now that it's out. I took this week off from modding for that and plan to resume monday. It is a lot of items to make and apply a conversion to, plus I'm making two tables, one for the artifacts and one for the trophie's so server admins can pick and chose if they want one or the other or both. It'll be a little bit still but it is coming along.

do you have an ETA for the Artifact & trophie transfer mod as the one i was using no longer work and all the other ones i found dont have all ther stuff from aberation.

Also a notice: Extinction WILL be supported! It's already been leaked that the next expansion will include Unstable Element + Unstable shards. We do not know yet if these items can be transferred or not across ARK's, but if not they will be added to the mod! We will just have to wait for the Devkit to update with the content for that to happen.

@ColonelTealc Sure, though S+ should alreasdy pull it. It does on the servwer I play on anyho.

cheat giveitem "/Game/Mods/ElementTransmitter/DigitalElement/PrimalItemResource_DElement.PrimalItemResource_DElement" 1 0 0 false
cheat giveitem "/Game/Mods/ElementTransmitter/DigitalElement/PrimalItemResource_DElementShard.PrimalItemResource_DElementShard" 1 0 0 false

Hey do you mind posting the spawn command for digital element? I want to add it to the pull list in s+ but need the spawn command for it and didn't see it in the list you have. Thanks!

@ColonelTealc I have, but it will be its own mod just to not add anything to this one that other servers may not desire.

Have you thought about adding trophies to this as well? Just thinking it would be nice to use this mod with trophies including alpha drops, regular trophies, and boss trophies.

@TCN7799 No it wont crash the server, just would break the items in general, editing stack size with ini settings apparently only works on cliant side, not server side. As is the change has been reverted so theres no ill effects.

do it will make server crash?

Had to revert the change. While it appeared to be working fine in giving digital element custom stack sizes, it badly bored up any digital element that was uploaded, changing it to stack of 1.

Going by what I've also been informed, it seems that making stack size controled by an ini isn't really as doable as I thought it would be due to it being an item, not an active object.... something I wish the modding community informed me of while I was poking for aid and before I updated the mod.

So until someone finds a means to do it with out badly breaking things, Ima have to pass on trying.

Hope everyone enjoys this update. If it works as good as it did in my testing the INI setting's for custom stack size's should now be in place! Enjoy!

@dejvrecord Not sure how you mean? If they are trying to take the crafting station's with them it should just display the same message as with normal element and tributes that you have something in your inv that can't travel.

our server during loading player on other maps crash with this mod, or write forbidden subject but I have nothing in my pocket.

@Tyrinath That hopefully will come the next update after this current update. What isn't in the update notes is me adding a small test object in this mod to see if the test ini is working proper. if it is, it'll be fully added by next update. This along with settings to enable or disable the ability to pick up the stations.

INI's are still a new thing for me and thus far it seems, I'm sorted out how to do true/false ones, but making one to change a value and making sure if you try and add a invalid value that its ignored is proving a little more tricky.

Any word on the config option for Digital element stack size?

will this thing let me go back to the future???

@Aurora Yes it's a 1:1 ratio, the tek tier just does it at a faster rate.

I was a bit confused, this will still transfer element at a 1:1 ratio?

-"The TEK versions of the Transmitter & ReConverter convert at a much higher rate than the normal Tier. "

i may just be misunderstanding this point, i read it as the TEK tier will give more in conversion.

@Vysse Yes there's 2 tier's of 2 crafting tables, normal and Tek, with both you need to craft a machine that first converts the element, than another that changes it back.

Okay so I would have to take the crafted items to a bench and convert them? That isn't an issue and you being active convinces me that this is worth it. Would be sweet if tributes were added. Unaware that I could transfer Artifact via ini setting. Will have to look into that. Thanks.

@Vysse I really need to make some screen shots of this in use. What it means is instead of like other mods that make it super easy, one click craft from inv to change the element to a new item that can be transfered, with this one you need to craft stations to convert the element into a new item and back. It works for PVE, but was designed for PVP in mind. This mod was a server request after one such 'easy' mod caused issues. This is just a balanced means of doing it.

It don't allow you to reansfer tributes but you can already transfer artifacts via server ini settings. (server I play on allows artifacts cross cluster) I might be looking in future to add as its own mod a means to transfer tributes. Perhaps break them all down into a single item that can than craft any of them sense some can be harder to get than others.
