not sure if this is a bug but im getting alot on prime heart relics now

Seems like this is working but possibly bugged, I have it set to keep the original item. Placing an item into the inventory first creates an exact copy (not a BP) and also sends the original back to your inventory. Exiting out of the station and bring it back up now shows a BP of the item. If you try to place the BP into the same inventory as the original item, the BP is deleted.

I loved the idea behind this mod, but it is possible to place an upgraded item in to get an upgraded blueprint and then it is possible to crafting skill over and over again to continuously get better and better items. I would suggest, if possible @dubCUT, make the mod ignore any current crafting skill applied to the item you are converting into a blueprint. In order to balance it better on cluster servers.

Got a bug at first use. I tried a saddle, armor and crossbow and placed all inside. saddle and armor got BP, but the crossbow bugged. It's not getting a BP and I can't move it anymore. The only thing I could do is, to destroy the crafter. Then the crossbow was lost, because it wasn't in the loot. Bugfix please

I'm trying this mod because I want to be able to make some overpowered items. I've set "QualityMultiplier=100" but every blueprint I make is much worse than the original item. What's going on?

This doesn't work with the un-grindable items from Genesis.
Anyone know how I can BP those items? This is fantastic for everything else. ^_^

If you place an upgraded item in here to get an upgraded blueprint is it possible to then crafting skill over and over again to continuously get better and better items? This is important before I add it to my clusters to know which way the mod stands xD
justZach 28 Oct, 2021 @ 2:38pm 
Where exactly do i go to mod the .ini files to set the qualitymultiplier to 2
KennyBall 18 Oct, 2021 @ 3:32am 
The mod work fine for me... I do not paste the .ini settings.
One question, is it possible to make blueprints of other modded items?
Ginko 15 Oct, 2021 @ 12:33am 
Definitely glitchy, especially when the option the keep original item is on. its the only mod I had installed. after BP creation the game seems to see the BP and original item as the same entity and if you place them in the same inventory one will over-right the other leading to destruction of item of BP or sometimes both. I had to move the few BPs I made to another map in order to avoid glitches. BPS made with this mod will still over right original items even after the mod is deactivated. ( it may be possible to avoid all this if you just let the mod eat your original item :P )

Does it need an artifact to work? Place thing in but nothing happens
Warlance 2 Jul, 2021 @ 12:09am 
very glitchy, lost a journeyman riot chest entirely, user beware

So I'm hoping to use this on a private server with friends to convert primitive items to ascendant blue prints because Not sure how but I've completely buggered the loot system and it only gives primitive loot. Problem is I can't get the quality modifier to work. I put the settings lines in GameUserSettings.ini and cranked it to 1000 but I got nothing. Another quick test and the destroy item line seems to not be working either.

So what did I do wrong?
tyrranor 1 May, 2021 @ 6:01am 
works with mosasaurus saddle but not giga ... any clue ?
Darth Trog 9 Apr, 2021 @ 6:50pm 
Not broken, works fine, is conflict with another mod.
Hade 8 Apr, 2021 @ 12:32am 
Broken, doesn't do anything.
Meg 19 Feb, 2021 @ 11:03am 
yes it work/you best
G-Unit Fanboy 23 Nov, 2020 @ 3:07pm 
does it work?
KΛT 28 Jun, 2020 @ 7:59am 
Yes - Please Update !
Zepher Nocora 28 May, 2020 @ 10:17pm 
Broken as of 5/28
Blueprints don't go into inv, possibly due to the recent patch to "fix" official server issues over duping and such but still annoying. Possible update?
rocksk8r2k9 18 Dec, 2019 @ 7:26pm 
is it possible to make it so you have to craft this in the smithy? i want to modify the crafting recipe but its physically impossible to hold all the ingredients for it in ones inventory
MONSTER 23 Nov, 2019 @ 7:51am 
how i start the fire?
plc.reboot 16 Jun, 2019 @ 4:29am 
This mod allows a very, very OP process. I cobbled up a rex saddle with 352.7 armour, and it only costs 585 fibre, 1111 hide, and 146 metal. Crazy over-powered.
willfarnham22 12 Jun, 2019 @ 1:59pm 
does the quality modifier still work i have attempted to edit the ini file but it has made no difference, am i missing something.

For those of you who want to HIDE the Engram:
OverrideNamedEngramEntries=(EngramClassName="EngramEntry_BPcrafter_C",EngramHidden=True)
KΛT 18 Dec, 2018 @ 7:02pm 
@ dubCUT Would you or someone be able to give me the command to remove the engram - I want to add this mod but only make it available/spawnable to myself [server admin] and disable the ability for my players to craft it.
CajunYT 6 Aug, 2018 @ 8:55pm 
Does this mod work
ArfArfSays 16 Jul, 2018 @ 6:02pm 
Its good but can you make it so that you can put blueprints in again and upgrade them for example a mastercraft blueprint is put in the thingy and it becomes ascendant blueprints
Calmaria 15 Jul, 2018 @ 6:34am 
Still buggy with shields, Ive lost 2, they seem to process, but the bp cant be pulled, and nothing else processes after that. Pick it up, and put it back, and they are gone, do another batch, all fine, do a shield, (both riot, and iron) and it dies.

I think ill have to use upgrade station again.
Vide Noir 22 May, 2018 @ 6:47am 
ah okay the discussion "no longer works" made me worry
dubCUT  [author] 22 May, 2018 @ 2:41am 
@Eagle of Phantoms
yes
Vide Noir 21 May, 2018 @ 1:02am 
Does it stil work?
Malchezzar 14 May, 2018 @ 9:49am 
To answer my own question, looks like it does. Thanks!
Malchezzar 13 May, 2018 @ 8:42pm 
Does this mod allow creation of structure blueprints? I was looking for a mod that does this since S+'s version only seems to work on non tek s+ stuff and I'd like to allow creation of bps for tek and other modded structures.
Jayna 20 Apr, 2018 @ 7:24pm 
What this mod do for fishing rod. Because fishing rod bp is limited to 3 use but with this you can keep it for eternity? I wish this mod don't work with fishing rod.
G_IW 29 Mar, 2018 @ 3:16pm 
Cheers for that. Also did notice, that whereas before when you put in say a journeyman level item it would almost always go up in terms of item status, almost always straight to ascendant however now it will always return a blueprint of the same category even with far higher stats in terms of say armour, damage or durability.
dubCUT  [author] 29 Mar, 2018 @ 12:40pm 
@G_IW
if you use a multiplier of 1 it should now give you an exact copy. any other setting is still experimental as of how poor ARK handles quality... i need some more time to investigate and fix that, but i get your point.
G_IW 28 Mar, 2018 @ 1:18pm 
Anyway, since we updated we only now realised there was an option to not destroy the blueprint so we played with settings, first at quality 1 until we realised that just gives you an exact copy, now at the default 2 so we're getting random stats coming through like before but we have noticed that whereas before the cost of the item changed, now it's coming out the same - presumably of what the original item that's being put in it would cost. We were wondering is that a thing now or a bug. I mean we often got insanely expensive items to craft but we do like a good grind at times and it made it feel worth it to be able to craft something really OP. So I guess the real question is, is this a bug or something that can be configured somehow?
G_IW 28 Mar, 2018 @ 1:18pm 
Hi dubCUT, just as a first instance, on our server we really love this mod. We've had in on all our maps since we started running a server 18 months ago or so. However we're wondering what might have changed as of the latest updates. We weren't aware it had been updated 5 days ago as our server wasn't giving us a mod mismatch error and we only noticed yesterday when we realised our clients were crashing when using it. We've been using it in a sort of tag team mini-game way thus far, where one player will go high on crafting ability to craft as high level as possible item after the other player with no crafting ability has spent a long time trying to get a really good quality blueprint and yes we were using the quick take it out again before it disappears approach to play the system a bit but it was a fun way of doing it.

@Decter8425
if you enter 1, there should not be any improvement. ascendent items may still vary...
but let me check that soon.
@MagicPants
this really is a good alternative to this mod! i think he is sponsored, so i guess it is more refined than this.
Decter8425 6 Feb, 2018 @ 8:05am 
All, you should be able to add:

[BlueprintCrafter]
QualityMultiplier=0

To the GameUserSettings Ini. 0=no improvement, >1=improvement to level of number entered
InfamousGuns 5 Jan, 2018 @ 2:42pm 
Has anyone figured out how to stop it from upgrading?
Pvt4life 27 Nov, 2017 @ 2:42pm 
[BlueprintCrafter]
QualityMultiplier=0
keepitem=false

will this make the item stay whatever quality it is?
MagicPants 26 Nov, 2017 @ 1:04am 
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=821530042 Use this instead. Its blueprint maker is EXACTLY what you need.
Pvt4life 25 Nov, 2017 @ 10:23am 
can anyone tell me how to make it not upgrade the item?
Pvt4life 20 Oct, 2017 @ 2:20pm 
how can i make it just make a bp and not upgrade the item?
MagicPants 11 Aug, 2017 @ 1:50am 
Is this mod still not working ?
Bert 20 Jul, 2017 @ 1:37pm 
Sad this does not work at the moment. But this is ark, every moment they can decide to swap out or rename a skill or engram and break mods like crazy.
