What running an ARK Survival Ascended server involves.
ARK Survival Ascended rebuilds ARK on Unreal Engine 5: its server needs more memory than the original ARK, especially on large maps and with lots of tamed creatures. The official maps (The Island, Scorched Earth, The Center, Aberration…) have been released gradually.
Mods go through CurseForge: you enable them on the server by their project ID, and players download them automatically when they join. Experience, harvesting and taming rates are set in GameUserSettings.ini and Game.ini.
Frequently asked questions
How do I add mods to an ARK Survival Ascended server?
Note the mod ID on CurseForge, add it to the -mods= launch option (comma-separated IDs), then restart. Players download the mods automatically when they join.
How is it different from an ARK Survival Evolved server?
ARK Survival Ascended is a separate game, on Unreal Engine 5, with its own servers, CurseForge mods and map names. An ARK Survival Evolved world can’t be carried over to Ascended as is: choose the server that matches the game your players own.
How do I change the XP and taming rates?
Stop the server first, because ARK rewrites its config files when it shuts down. Then edit the multipliers (XPMultiplier, TamingSpeedMultiplier…) in GameUserSettings.ini using the file manager, and restart.
Can I change plans later?
Yes. Compare the RAM, vCPUs and storage of each plan, then switch plans if your ARK Survival Ascended server needs more resources.
