Texture loading Problem
Hi got a question. What could be causing me and my brother to be having a texture problem. It seems to be on this map and on Theives Island its the exact same thing. Im the admin of a cluster setup and so far Shigo Islands and Offical maps runs totally fine. What seems to be happening is it looks like some things are only in Simple texture mode like I am far away and they are not loading the detailed texture model. It happens on things like my gun, tools, map to random dinos to rocks.

Things i have tried.

1 Reinstalled the entire game.
2 Reinstalled the map.
3 Ftp the map from my home machine to my server.

I can get it to load correctly on some things if i turn everying to epic then to low, then everything within sight will fix itself but when i come accross something else further away it is back in simple texture mode but its random on what it is. Help would be really apprecaited if anyone knows whats going on. Thank you.

No, Island, Center, and SE are all good. If I may be bold and make a suggestion....why not try lower texture res as you mentioned but only at center of map so I can quickly find the location and report back to you the results. This way you won't have to do a ton of work just to find out witch way to go. We my get lucky. I will see this through with you...it will be fun :steamhappy:

If the island renders in openGL then it should be possible for madagascar. I'll start to lower the complexity of the landscape components. Makes the map run smoother in general.

I will continue to simplify the landscape material. Should have another patch next week. Sorry for the wait.

I'm still looking for ways to reduce the complexity of the material. Trying to talk to the wildcard devs and see what they think.

i am getting the same thing
Hey my team rules!  [developer] 16 Mar, 2017 @ 11:59am 
Try changing your settings to this: World Tile buffers = high: View Distance = High: Textures = Medium: Sky Quality = Half: Clutter Density = Half: All boxed checked EXCEPT Dynamic Tesselation, Extra Level Streaming Distance and Low Quality Level Streaming. Turn these off. If you need to lower anything else then feel free to do so. The texture loading issue should be fixed soon.

I wish they would get their linux support together, I haven't been able to play Ark in Linux for months using Radeon.

so i may have found the problem, after validating my files it found 2 files missing somehow and after it downloaded the files back the textures wasn't messed up anymore so idk, more testing to come
