Follow the instructions here - https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=478227612

Change the mod id to the id of whatever mod you are trying to use.

so assuming whe you mean mod id, its the numbered id of the file?

I cant get this working on my dedicated server either, is there is a better tutorial somewhere?

bump
you guys should really help us instead of just giving a link to another mod and tell us to get it ourselves...
i've been trying to get this to work for a few hours and the lack of help kinda pisses me :/
i think the id is the 478525616 and then you have to replace the "GenericMod" to the UMAP file names, in this case "AllColorDinosMod"
it would be something like: "ShooterGameServer.exe" /Game/Mods/478525616/AllColorDinosMod?listen?ModId=478525616 , correct me if i'm wrong
and i think (not sure aswell) that you have to input that command in-game after enabling cheats
PLS someone help me, or correct me.. cause i'm firing my gun in total pitch black hoping to hit the fly

If you are running a windows dedicated server subscribe to the mod and Steam should download it, then create your startserver.bat file in the same directory as ShooterGameServer.exe

Example: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\ARK\ShooterGame\Binaries\Win64

Inside the .bat file put your startup info, here's mine as an example (without the quotations)

"start ShooterGameServer.exe /Game/Mods/479929837/PieLand?ModId=479929837?listen?QueryPort=27015?SessionName=DINOLAND?MaxPlayers=123 -nosteamclient -game -server -log"

Hope that helps!

I am using "ARK Server Manager" to open my server...If I create that .bat file, can I still use the Server Manager, or do I have to use the .bat file to open my server?

Following that link will never get this mod working!

Subscribe.
Go to your steam folder (SteamLibrary\SteamApps\workshop\content\346110)
Find the mod, copy to your server (ark_server\ShooterGame\Content\Mods)
If no Mod directory create it and paste the complete mod in there in the same format (479929837 folder)

to start the server add this to your command line or to the Additional Args: in Ark Server Manager
/Game/Mods/479929837/PieLand?listen?ModId=479929837

THIS is wht i have been searching the INTERNETZ for. did not realize steam puts mods in a seperate folder. thank you SO much!

Commands dont work for me , and havent seen a single diffent dino then normal :\
My players had to download it soon as they connect tho so i have no idea whats going on.

Same for me. I have installed (or at least tried to) the All Color Dinosaurs mod, to see if it actually works, and I never saw other colored dinosaurs.

Set it up per the instructions above. Is there any quick way to tell if the mod is working or not?

Hi

Since nobody seems to answer on the All Colors Dinos mod, i'll post it here because it's the same creator !

I'm running a private server, and i'm using the mod (technically) but since i've created a file in Shootergame/content/Mods/"yourmodhere" and entered this command in my .bat

start ShooterGameServer.exe Theisland?/Game/Mods/478525616/PieLand?listen?ModId=478525616?QueryPort=27015?SessionName=BambouIsland?MaxPlayers=50?AllowThirdPersonPlayer=True?ServerCrosshair=True?alwaysNotifyPlayerJoined=True?alwaysNotifyPlayerLeft=True?globalVoiceChat=True?ShowMapPlayerLocation=True?noTributeDownloads=false?proximityChat=false?serverPVE=True?serverHardcore=false?serverForceNoHud=false?bDisableStructureDecayPvE=false?bAllowFlyerCarryPvE=True?MaxStructuresInRange=5000?DifficultyOffset=0,25?DayCycleSpeedScale=1?NightTimeSpeedScale=1,5?DayTimeSpeedScale=1?DinoDamageMultiplier=1?PlayerDamageMultiplier=1?StructureDamageMultiplier=1?PlayerResistanceMultiplier=1?DinoResistanceMultiplier=1?StructureResistanceMultiplier=1?XPMultiplier=1,5?PvEStructureDecayPeriodMultiplier=1?TamingSpeedMultiplier=2?HarvestAmountMultiplier=1?HarvestHealthMultiplier=1?ResourcesRespawnPeriodMultiplier=1,5?PlayerCharacterWaterDrainMultiplier=1?PlayerCharacterFoodDrainMultiplier=1?DinoCountMultiplier=1,5?listen?ServerAdminPassword=*****?ServerPassword=**** -nosteamclient -game -server -log

The server is working, but i haven't seen any special colored dinosaur ... or anything ! Just one thing changed, when i launch my server it was usually saying "server start up blah blah blah" and that's all Now it says "server start up" and type the whole .bat content, but still working and still no sign of new colored dinosaure !

My friend had to download it while connectinf to the server aswell !

Anybody can help me and see i've made a mistake in there ? i'd be glad thank you ! ^^

SAME HERE :(

"start ShooterGameServer.exe Theisland?/Game/Mods/478525616/PieLand?listen?ModId=478525616"

SHOULD BE:

"start ShooterGameServer.exe /Game/Mods/478525616/PieLand?listen?ModId=478525616?"


and yes just double check that the folder "478525616" is in your servers directory under "ShooterGame/Content/Mods/478525616/"

KEEP IN MIND HOWEVER.. my knowledge only extends as far as THIS mod.. not the other mod. This mod has both the other mod AND the elite dinos within it. I have never used the colors mod on its own... It may even be out of date in some way
