This doesn't seem to work for dinos that gestate instead of laying eggs. It just gives a max tamed level dino with neither of the parents' stats instead. If anyone knows a fix for this, please let me know

Thank you John F. Kennedy for your comment this helped me a lot with my issues

This mod still works for me on most ARK dinos and MODDED, if anyone has any issues i suggest putting this in your .ini file.

[BreedingEvolved]
NotTransferTamedStats=False

This makes sure your leveled dinos stats will go onto their offspring.

Hatch the egg as close as you can to the parents.

If the stats dont transfer use a soul trap or cryopod on the baby and throw them out next to the parents.

I am not a developer of any kind i just see lots of reviews of people running into issues and thought id recommend my methods.

ill send you a price range of 100-2500$ USD if you can update this mod im a twitch streamer and ive been experiencing bugs with certain dinos for example a managarmr wont copy the best stats of it parents and levels. This bug has been happening for a long time and im 100% legit about them money.

How to use this mod? My dynos don't take the best stats

I'm sorry guys, as I already stated it in the description, I won't update this mod. UE4 ark dev kit has destroyed my last PC, never again I launch this again. Plus I don't have the project files anymore.

I might re-create this for ASA in the future but the last time I launched it, the performances was so bad that I decided to just wait before touching this game again, I'm not really informed of news about it since snail games just cumulates disapointements + betrayals towards its community.

I understand your frustration, I loved playing with this myself. But I'm not for sale, even less if it's at the cost of my PC parts.

I hope you understand.

I could add few bucks too. One of the best addons for ARK. Its so good that should be in basic settings!
MeduhsClone 8 Jul, 2024 @ 4:52pm 
I will give you 20 dollars to fix this really would like this to work properly.

Yeah this mod is busted, my raptors are hatching with random levels between 1 and 400, and their stats make no sense. I had a raptor with all stats 0 except for health at 90, another with all 0s except for attack at 90. The baby has 100 on health, 20 stamina, and 120 weight and attack. This mod just pulls numbers out of nowhere.

Eine tolle Mod, spart viel Zeit und Arbeit.
Bei mir Funktioniert die Mod einwandfrei.
Besten Dank an MadTek!
lordcrowler 7 Mar, 2024 @ 3:00am 
Mod still works verry well!

Sad that this mod has been abandoned, it made SP breeding much more fun!

Mod is completly broken, dont use it!
I tested on my singleplayer with mammals, and they are giving birth to parasaurs!
I tested with best eggs too to see if it work, worked some times, but others was just strange things happening
I tested with some megateriums, and some of the inherited the levels of the rexes
NickelRocker 22 Sep, 2023 @ 3:28pm 
The mod still works for me, but I had a really weird thing happen. I was breeding Deinonychus and Carch at the same time and randomly my Deinon levels transferred to my Carches, causing their levels to jump massively. Is this intentional or a random occurence?
Speed 26 Jul, 2023 @ 3:48pm 
mod don't work anymore
GC259 21 Jun, 2023 @ 8:39pm 
idk if i dont understand breeding or this mod but i got a lvl 398 Arge from a lvl 260 and 265. love it but i am confused
SkibidiSigmaGod 9 Jun, 2023 @ 10:12pm 
dont download mod does not work at all and is abandoned.
Sreeto 1 Apr, 2023 @ 7:49am 
i have some argentavises that have 254 in health and damage but everytime i restart my game i need to pick them up and then place them down again to make them have their correct stats and its super annoying
Sreeto 1 Apr, 2023 @ 7:47am 
if you use the mod "best eggs" then this mod works without flaws
Splićo 17 Feb, 2023 @ 3:47am 
any breeding mod that actually work in 2023 ?
Pat3dfx 8 Jan, 2023 @ 7:32am 
My babies have the best stats of parents but after restarting my computer, the weight of my babie drop down to default parents weight stats (not the leveled stats).
Terminaut 3 Jan, 2023 @ 4:00pm 
@alphagodith I used a mod called breeding place I think. It lets mammals lay eggs like S+ tek structures. It seems to work a bit now. But when I cryo the tame their stats nerf hard
AlphaGodith 3 Jan, 2023 @ 1:59pm 
@terminaut sounds like you hit the stat cap so it rolled over or something. how were you using this mod for megatheriums tho, they don't lay eggs and it only works for egg-layers for me.
Mrfreshsmelling 2 Jan, 2023 @ 4:54pm 
i love this mod im using it in a massive modded series. but i have a question sometimes the mod has no affect on my server, will this mod be less efficient if i have around 38 mods or more?
Terminaut 2 Jan, 2023 @ 3:12pm 
I had a question, I was breeding megatheriums and when I bred stats around 100k HP and 2000% damage, the stats stopped passing to the baby. Is there a reason this is happening
AlphaGodith 31 Dec, 2022 @ 3:47pm 
seems to work well enough but only for dinos that lay eggs. doesn't work at all for mammals.
AlphaGodith 26 Dec, 2022 @ 4:11pm 
is this completely broken across the board, or does it work in limited circumstances? if it works with wild stats only on maps other than genesis, that'd suit me fine.
janne_swk 18 Oct, 2022 @ 1:14pm 
Not rly a bug but i tried to breed megatheriums and they couldnt get over 444% melee, even tho the Dad had 3k
fems had around 300-500% (skilled in weight/stam/health)
allskeeper 10 Sep, 2022 @ 10:45pm 
did this mod started to get worked on again?
imsy 1 Sep, 2022 @ 6:45am

DiaborMagics 1 Aug, 2022 @ 8:40am 
Is it safe to install this mod on an existing server or SP savegame?
tily_lass 11 Jul, 2022 @ 9:07am 
that is.. wow. that is kinda OP, lol I will definitely ask the people on my server if theyd like that
Thundercraft 10 Jul, 2022 @ 11:55am 
@tily_lass
It may not be the same thing. But I did discover a mod which is kind of similar to this one:

Best Eggs!

Quote, Simply select your fertilized eggs in the Best Egg Maker and click 'Make Best Egg' and your dino babies will have the best stats taken from any ancestor found nearby. This will look for the best stats from anywhere in either the father's or mother's ancestral lines."
tily_lass 9 Jul, 2022 @ 11:06am 
I really miss this mod
Thundercraft 5 Jul, 2022 @ 2:56am 
Here's hoping that either the source code will be released or it otherwise gets updated some day.
WildesPony 3 Jul, 2022 @ 3:44pm 
I just want to enable that tamed levels count for breeding, does anyone know how to edit the game ini or can recommend another mod?
MadLad 29 Jun, 2022 @ 4:38pm 
Can you release the source code of this mod so that someone can take it over?
Angry Birds 30 May, 2022 @ 7:38am 
I have a Yuta and it’s mom I think has 3k meele and the father has 450k health, but the baby only come out with 98k health and 1,9k meele. The babies are 3 gen.
Talosses 3 May, 2022 @ 11:59am 
so for those of you using egg incubator to hatch your eggs, its gonna show the values if you were still playing vanilla, but as soon as they hatch theyre automatically made into perfects
NeXuS 20 Apr, 2022 @ 9:00am 
Yeah... We definitely need an update... The mod is super-awesome anti-grind tool at workshop.
Balbars 15 Apr, 2022 @ 11:12am 
Vola Steam's people! :sufferme:
This mod have issue and bugs. It's need to update or fix or maybe one hero make new mod like this one.

Have fun until die!
procy 11 Apr, 2022 @ 10:42am 
Tempted to download this mod, This breeding and killing and breeding and killing hundreds of times for that small % chance to carry over the preferred stats is just painful.
Doh blao 7 Apr, 2022 @ 6:40pm 
i try use this mod in lost island with vanilla dinos ark and dont know what is wrong but any baby take the stats from parents i try with a variety of dinos but nothing any idea?
N4C7R 4 Apr, 2022 @ 6:38pm 
Ravagers are also picking the worst stats? am i doing something wrong
N4C7R 4 Apr, 2022 @ 6:34pm 
Bulbdogs dont carry the best stats from the parents, had multiple babies still no
Cryptfeen 17 Mar, 2022 @ 8:10am 
im using primal fear. it work on omega sarco but not apex carno lol. im confused
BigN 15 Feb, 2022 @ 10:42am 
Does anyone know if this mod works with Ark Omega?
Vilaça 13 Feb, 2022 @ 8:57am 
For anyone looking, the mod "Best Eggs!" by Kozenomenon can turn Gestation into Eggs. Don't know if it transfers the best stats on its own, but I managed to combine the best stats of 2 monkeys using both mods
