keep rebooting when starting the map
Hi,

I tried to play on a server with this map but the game keep rebooting.
So i tried on SP without mod other than the map Volcano but i still have the same problem. The game restart soon after showing TheVolcano_A1_FAR
I tried checking ark validity. I redownload mods(ragarok, the center, the volcano) multiple time and i still have the same problem.
Do i have to change some settings?

Regards.

I delete TheVolcano_A1_FAR.umap the map load without any problem.
I hope it won't crash if i go on this part of the map...

Help is still welcome.

I am having the exact same issue. Done everything to address it. Reinstall the game, the mod, run alone with just the mod only. without battle eye, with battle eye etc etc. Same issue. Reboots the game to the title screen. Is there any fix?

BTW I don't call having to go into game files and delete or modify them myself a fix. One shouldn't have to mess with ini/exe/dll or whatever files. I am not a programmer. Most people aren't. Would probally cause more problems, than fix them.

We've been having these exact same issues over and over... tried to resolve it for the entire day yesterday...narrowed the problem down to the volcano map.. can't load it on local by itself even. Have deleted and re-downloaded multiple times. We need some developer help here.

There has to be something corrupt in the download process. We are having this on two different servers and it works fine, other one is "heavily" modded (11 mods) and other is less modded (3 or 4 mods only).

Try to manually remove the map / map folder from steamapps and ARK location while steam is closed. Then open up steam, verify files from ark, download the map from steam workshop again by subscribing the map and try again. I hope after you open ARK, you let the game download and install the map before launching with it.

There definitely is nothing wrong with the map itself, or we fail to duplicate the issue.

already tried this process multiple times.
But since there isn't any log, I can't send you anything to find out the issue...

I have followed that exact process 3 times now on both of my gaming rigs. Deleted from mod folder, verified files, and re-subscribed to the Volcano mod. I've also tried deleted everything from my mod folder and re-subscribed to appropriate mods. Each time I get immediate "mod mismatch" error when trying to join any server with Volcano map. Also, if I try to load a local game using Volcano map and no other mods, the game just stalls and goes back to Ark load screen. I've given up on it. Spent two days trying to troubleshoot it. All other maps/mods work fine for me. *If anyone has any other suggestions though, I am all ears.

I had that problem as well and managed to solve it.
Unfortunately the solution was to deinstall the game, delete the Ark folder in my steam library
and install the game as well.
Not a nice solution but it worked for me.

I also noticed that it always replaced 2 files when i verified the game date,
regardless of how often i did this.
Not sure if that hat anything to do with this problem through.

I have no idea what could cause the issue. My guess it's a steam issue, not fully downloading the map or the download is currupted and so the installation of the map. If it's a map problem, then everyone would have it. Maybe try another download source/location in steam, so you're download from another server.
