Hi asa ?
Schächtelchen 7 May, 2023 @ 5:21am 
Yes I have had them on my server for almost two years with the Hunted and the Prehistoric Structures mod.
I like such bone structures very much.

Unfortunately I have to take out e.g. the weapons, because they don't work well with The Hunted, axes don't work for harvesting raw materials, or they are just too strong.

The bone structures, especially the large gates, are unfortunately partly blurred.
And the mod triggers legs in the meantime.

Since I use it but for half a year with a heavy heart no longer, I do not even know what it was all for problems. I will test on request but

Also the bed, I would like to use that to lie down, but that did not work as far as I know.
Also, the palisades need foundations, where I would have liked to see if you could put them without support. (Saving structures)
It would be so nice if you would work on the mod again, or release the data. (Gladly still for ASE, because I don't know if I'll switch to ASA, that depends on The Hunted & Kanga).

@Schächtelchen Nice to see it is still played!
There are no plans for reengaging in modding, for now. Who knows what Ark Ascended will bring...
Out of curiosity: What kind of problems do accrue with other mods?
Schächtelchen 6 May, 2023 @ 12:26pm 
Will the mod actually be updated again at some point?
I think it's really great, but unfortunately it causes even more problems when playing together with The Hunted and other mods.

great mod, enjoying it a lot! just a question - custom axe has this blue glow and particles, any way to get rid of that? thx
Bloodstormz 23 Jun, 2022 @ 8:16am 
can this all be learned between lvl 1-30? i want to focus this to be a better option to thatch for starting players
luke  [author] 16 Oct, 2021 @ 9:29am 
@Centauri🐾 Wood, thatch and probably sparkpowder works as fuel for the Blood Shrine and convert the raw meat into bone meal.
NiaUnderStars 14 Oct, 2021 @ 4:16am 
What do you use to fuel the Blood Shrine?

@briandand you need to make one of the things that look like a smeltery. (Forgot the name) in the mod, Believe it's called a shrine. There is a large version of it and a much smaller version. Start with the small version
Briandand 28 May, 2019 @ 7:38pm 
How do you get or make bone meal. You need it to make the bone palisades but not sure how to get/make bone meal. thanks for the help.
Bodean Abernathy II 31 Mar, 2019 @ 7:08pm 
So what is the difference between this and "Cage Structures: Back to the roots"? Does this mod have everything the other mod has and more?
DreadlordCix67 5 Dec, 2018 @ 2:46pm 
Would Love Some INI File Settings Such as Crafting Speed For Structures
LeBwah 16 Nov, 2018 @ 2:24am 
Please more !

@Tigg3r00, the problem is that very few devs release their source material, and without it, it's impossible to continue someone else's work. It's sad to see a mod die off, but a large portion of the workshop populated when the game was still in early access, and dead mods are the result of that and many of the mistakes WC has made in the games development.
Solgato 26 Aug, 2018 @ 12:08pm 
I wish new modders could sweep through and help keep these working with later devkits.
Sean 7 Aug, 2018 @ 6:30am 
Grug find mod. Grug like mod, Grug add to server. Grug cave look good now.
akaryuthered 6 Aug, 2018 @ 9:36am 
this goes so well with ecos primordial decor
Myst 16 Apr, 2018 @ 3:09am 
It is possible to get a standalone version of just he fences they are awesome., the whole mod looks cool but to ferrell for my game play BUT I love the fences....
Hiysta 14 Apr, 2018 @ 3:52pm 
I know this mod is long forgotten but does anyone know if this works with a stacking mod? i've tested it out in SP and it only seems to accept the vanilla version of raw meat. If i place a stacked version, nothing happens :(
Boot Scootin Boogie 11 Apr, 2018 @ 7:42pm 
When looking at engrams added by this mod I get a FPS drop
Devilsreborn 8 Apr, 2018 @ 2:29pm 
your elevator crashes the server I'm on each time... its literally being used by trolls at this point.
Jack Bright 6 Apr, 2018 @ 2:51pm 
So how does the elevator... work?
Cosmic Glowsticks 3 Apr, 2018 @ 6:45pm 
I don't know if this is a bug or not but.. uh.. you uh.. you hump the raptor chair when sitting on it. At least in singleplayer.

luke  [author] 28 Mar, 2018 @ 9:39am 
@BlackMageBlogger14 The blood shrine converts raw meat into bone meal (dont forget to fire it up).
Aeliria 28 Mar, 2018 @ 8:53am 
Hello luke
I tried to build the elevator and I did it the way you described it. First to build a track, then the winch wheel. The track always states that it has no power. As soon as I want to build a second track, my server always crashes. Hope you can help me. Otherwise I find your mod very cool! :)
HermitHubby 25 Mar, 2018 @ 5:55pm 
where is bone meal? And how do you get it??

ZombiKandi 23 Mar, 2018 @ 9:21pm 
Yes, I've also had a problem with the elevator. The Blood Shrine does work, however. Other than those two things, the mod works wonderfully! Hopefully, you can find that leisure time as I adore this mod! My tribe is filled with nomadic stoneage peoples, so it really helps to look the part!
The Pilgrim 23 Mar, 2018 @ 3:52pm 
cool glad you liked it Luke :) Thanks for the mod dude
luke  [author] 23 Mar, 2018 @ 1:59pm 
Please post if you experience any big (or even gamebraking) bugs in this mod. I've read about not beeing able to light the totem pole (does the blood shrine still work?) and about crashes with the elevator. Can others confirm those bugs?
luke  [author] 23 Mar, 2018 @ 1:55pm 
Thanks for the feedback, glad to see that there are still fellow cavemen and cavewomen out there. Sorry there are no updates, my last try to add some new stuff reminded me how time consuming modding can be. Hopefully I will find some leisure in the future...
@The Pilgrim Great base, cool presentation in the video. Something like this I had in mind when creating the mod.
The Pilgrim 12 Mar, 2018 @ 2:34pm 
Hey love the mod man, its a lot of fun. I built this stoneage settlement using it along with other mods and it fit in just fine https://youtu.be/VoINeyBPy8g
Laughing Kenku 8 Mar, 2018 @ 4:11am 
This is such an awesome mod, sad it is not worked on anymore.. so much neat stuff could be added :) I have been enjoying my little cave home below the floating island of steampunk lol
ZombiKandi 7 Mar, 2018 @ 10:27pm 
The Totem Pole does not give the option to light. It has wood, thatch, sparkpowder, etc... and lots of raw meat in its inventory.
Twisted Gears 9 Feb, 2018 @ 8:43pm 
You should port your Cage Pillar structure into this one, may not work great as a pillar, but it looks awesome as a post for torches and lamps
Bloodstormz 2 Feb, 2018 @ 9:26pm 
@Vattende ill try that, I did find the Gaia Mod that goes great with this one and has upgrades to armor without going tek i just had to modify the inia bit.
GerbilRex 25 Jan, 2018 @ 6:21pm 
Love it! Though my poor rex can't be that comfy in a cage made out of his babys ;)

Neon_Fennec 30 Dec, 2017 @ 12:04pm 
there was no option to light it
luke  [author] 30 Dec, 2017 @ 10:32am 
@Faza Fox Have you tried to turn it on / fire it up? If its burning it should give bone meal from meat.
Neon_Fennec 30 Dec, 2017 @ 12:53am 
how do you use the blood shrine i put meat and wood in but nuthing happens
luke  [author] 28 Dec, 2017 @ 1:08pm 
@pokefan2 The Blood Shrine converts raw meat into bone meal.
DudeWhoDeadlifts 27 Dec, 2017 @ 5:50pm 
how do you make bone meal?
luke  [author] 11 Dec, 2017 @ 8:46am 
@TheMightySaurus It worked for me to place one track, then the winch wheel, push the winch wheel and then as much more tracks as needed. As writen before, its buggy right now, hope to find the issues.
TheMightySaurus 9 Dec, 2017 @ 6:41pm 
How does the cave elevator work? Ive got a track system and a platform, but I cant get the winch wheel to power the tracks
luke  [author] 8 Dec, 2017 @ 8:52am 
@V-Raptor and @Captain Mrrggllgggllggll Thanks for the feedback! I've experienced some small bugs with the elevator but it seemed to work. But if there are crashes I have to look at it again, just can't say when I will find the time.
Captain Mrrggllgggllggll 8 Dec, 2017 @ 4:36am 
same for me, server crash when i place an elevator
