Are the tek dinos still breedable
Oceans 29 Nov, 2022 @ 12:09am 
yeh i got issues with animations as well....everything else works.....spose i cant complain given last update in 2019

I would love this mod, if it just made the vanilla tek dinos craftable. It looks nice, but I really dont need them to be bigger or stronger. I just need the blueprint option, for making the vanilla ones in the 3 obelisks and city terminals + the blueprint drop from killed tek dinos like enforcers.
But I really like the idea of them consuming element dust, just like the enforcers, instead of food. That part makes way more sence to me.

Anyone have a fix for the animations not working with the dinos? We just built a tek Steggo on my server and it "glides" over the ground instead of walking, (basically none of it's animations play), just wondering if anyone knows a fix?

looks nice, im gonna try it
gbhosl 17 Jun, 2020 @ 12:48am 
And is the tek trike blueprint dropped by enraged trike?
gbhosl 17 Jun, 2020 @ 12:42am 
Hey, sorry if this has been asked, but is it possible to have this mod coincide with Project K, where you get the engram from killing creatures from Project K? I find it fun and challenging to limit your own dinos to only those that you can craft, and not tame
KonaManta 3 Apr, 2020 @ 8:25pm 
Doesn't work on tek trikes - they still spawn on no other maps than Genesis, and won't be converted to your version. However everything else seems to work great, so great mod.

Ever since the last update of a few days ago my giga went to lvl 1
I killed it used a new lvl 194 blueprint and next day i login its lvl 1 again...
Running a dedicated server

It's automatic because the vanilla versions already have built in, increased levels.
BlxckBurn_ 16 Oct, 2019 @ 8:13am 
Im thinking of adding this mod to my server, but on my server wild dino max lvl is up to 15.000! Does it change automatically or is there a .ini-setting? Sorry for my bad german english XD
Auster 20 Jul, 2019 @ 11:22pm 
I reordered my mod list and it works now.
Auster 20 Jul, 2019 @ 10:40pm 
I just added this mod into my load order, I killed a Tek Rex but a blueprint did not drop.
Vanguard  [author] 20 Jul, 2019 @ 8:42pm 
it does work on all maps its just expensive due to trying to balance it for the extinction map vs other maps
NetherAngel 19 Jul, 2019 @ 5:42am 
any chance this can be used on all maps with tek dinos? and does it add the missing tek dinos?
Vanguard  [author] 8 Jun, 2019 @ 10:56pm 
@black blade just change the settings in the ini for there scale to return the to default size my friend
Grovestream 4 Jun, 2019 @ 9:21am 
could you make them just like the regular tek dinos and by that i mean 20% higher maxlevel regular size becuase the camera is wierd and implement the mosa. Just a friendly request and thanks for reading this ;)
Osid 5 May, 2019 @ 11:31am 
Hey Malk nice job making this crafty little mod! I wish we could also use it to craft other dinos from other mods too. If there s there any way you could implement that it would be a perfect fit for our server. Thanks for making this cheers!
Johnny 4 May, 2019 @ 11:38am 
Is there someplace where there is a rough guide on how to even start this?
Voodoo 28 Apr, 2019 @ 4:55pm 
Really like that you made Tek dinos unique instead of just simple reskins giving them a use. Just as others have said the size increase seems unneeded and a bit restrictive maybe like 10% to 15% but I think you made them so much better just by giving them a use. Just my opinon I just dont like altering INI files in mods. Really great mod just the same.
Vanguard  [author] 16 Apr, 2019 @ 2:27am 
hey Stuccy, are you referring to there damage towards corrupt dinos or their damage in general? as currently they are intended as part of the mod to have 4 X multiplier on corrupt to suite the extinction map and be an alternative for fighting the drops and they fit this well at their current multiplier that matchs the enforcers. or do you simply mean there 10% buff to damage in general?
[OCG]Succy 15 Apr, 2019 @ 6:40pm 
Are you able to create another mod like this one but with the vanilla stats? just so for those wanting to create a close to vanilla style server we could have your mod without them being super op. This mod is by far the best tek dino one out there :) keep up the good work!
Max 1 Apr, 2019 @ 8:55pm 
@Vanguard: Is there any way to limit quantity built per tribe instead of just overall?
Max 1 Apr, 2019 @ 7:17pm 
@drmskr:
If you want more element dust you can use the simple spawners mod and set a resource spawner with type element dust vein which itself is completely configurable in terms of quantity, area, harvest amount etc. It does a whole lot more too.
drmskr 15 Mar, 2019 @ 8:11pm 
Well, to answer my own question, Yes, it is working in Abberation.

Current Issue I have noticed though: They are Untameable. And at the cost of 1k Element dust to make the crafter, you have to MASSIVELY kill the TEK Dinos for what little tiny bit you get from harvesting the TEK dinos, because there is no other way to get Element Dust in Any map other than Extinction... I was hoping I could tame a couple, have them reproduce so I could harvest the babies for the resources to make the better stuff.. But yea, no.
drmskr 12 Mar, 2019 @ 1:09pm 
Will this work on Abberation?
Taxburdett 10 Mar, 2019 @ 10:21am 
can you change tek dino coulor
shiro-zero 23 Feb, 2019 @ 12:38pm 
there is this weird bug that sometimes people craft dinos, the resources are taken but the bluepring stays and the dino its not crafted
any help?
Royalialty 4 Feb, 2019 @ 9:32am 
Though I do know that when I tried removing this mod the level 1 dinos went back to their normal levels. There is a chance that their stats were correct and I just couldn't tell, but I would have to double check that.
Royalialty 4 Feb, 2019 @ 9:28am 
@BaamAUnicorn, it is probably cause by one of the other mods on the server.
1. Enhanced Craftable Tek Dinos
2. Ark X-Tended: X-Tra Tranqs
3. Attainable Corrupted
4. Godzillark
5. eco's RP Decor
6. eco's Aberration Decor
7. eco's Extinction Foilage
8. HG Stacking Mod 10000-90 V287.4
9. Structures Plus (S+)
10. Auto Torch 11. Upgrade Station v1.8i

Not necessarily stacked in that order. I thought about testing which one might be causing it, but haven't gotten around to it.
BaamAUnicorn 31 Jan, 2019 @ 11:01pm 
@Royalialty Never had that problem with tamed TEK-dinos! Are you sure, that you don't have any other dino-related mods installed? At our server they are WILD sometimes at Lvl 1 displayed, but its just a visual bug, if the wyvern is a 180 you will fight a 180 - not a lvl 1 - eventhough it looks like one. My Server auto-restarts every 12 hours and none of our teks evere happened to be lvl 1 after that. Maybe you have to check your mod-list!
Dinosaurboy10 31 Jan, 2019 @ 2:47pm 
perhaps new tek creatures with different abilities, maybe like a tek wyvern that shoots a high damage, fast moving plasma shot. or a Tek Therizinosaurus that can harvest element nodes.
Royalialty 31 Jan, 2019 @ 5:44am 
@ BaamAUnicorn This is a problem with tamed tek dinos. Their level will become 1 and their stats seem to reset (maybe not all stats?), but when they die or similar it displays their original level.
Royalialty 31 Jan, 2019 @ 5:40am 
@Vanguard (Malk) Thank you! Hopefully that solves my issue.
BaamAUnicorn 31 Jan, 2019 @ 3:35am 
I'd like to thank you for your frequent updates! It looks like we dont have anymore any issues with the mod (Teks not dropping blueprints). Sometimes the Tek Dinos are displayed as Lvl 1 if you find them wild. Whatsoever, the S+ Tek-Transmitter displays the real Lvl and before fighting a Tek-Giga we simply check it on the Transmitter.
Vanguard  [author] 30 Jan, 2019 @ 11:55pm 
i have checked all the references in the mod and made sure they are all accurate and connected correctly. the only time dinos usually reset to level 1 is when a status component is changed the only thing I can think of that would cause this randomly is if the mod is unloaded from a map and the server is run with the vanilla versions again. as the status competent is replaced in this mod which holds all the data relating to their damage, health etc. I am recompiling the mod and uploading it now encase any recent updates to ark have effected the mod hopefully this will resolve any issues. as none of the status components have been recently replaced on my end.
Royalialty 30 Jan, 2019 @ 5:21pm 
Hey, whenever I restart my server all my of tamed tek dinos get set to level 1. Any ideas?
Vanguard  [author] 24 Jan, 2019 @ 11:35pm 
@dinosaurboy10 what did you have in mind?
Dinosaurboy10 24 Jan, 2019 @ 5:55pm 
when will this mod be updated
DARK 18 Jan, 2019 @ 12:37am 
Thanks for the reply. :)
Vanguard  [author] 17 Jan, 2019 @ 11:37pm 
currently no there is not and yes I amended the description of the mod to include the appropriate description this is only needed if you have issues with vanilla tek dinos showing up
DARK 17 Jan, 2019 @ 8:04pm 
Hey. Great mod. Question for you. Is there a setting to make crafting cheaper ?. I wanted to run a mod for higher lvl dinos & i think the crafting cost might get out of hand. Also what does the wipe vanilla dinos on the crafter do >?. wipe all vanilla dinos leaving only tek alive ?.
Caelum 10 Jan, 2019 @ 1:48am 
Makes sense :)
Vanguard  [author] 10 Jan, 2019 @ 1:33am 
not everyone seems to have the issue and the issue only seems to arise if the mod is not in first load order so I just added in this function and so that its not running unneccesary on servers that dont have the issue
Caelum 10 Jan, 2019 @ 12:43am 
I agree :) Probably won't be an issue anywhere. Though if it's the design of the mod to do away with the original tek dinos, shouldn't the autoremoval option be baked in in the crafting station instead of it being a choice?
Vanguard  [author] 9 Jan, 2019 @ 11:30pm 
@caelum the design of this mod is to not have vanilla tek dinos spawning at all and in principle they shouldnt actually spawn when this mod is in place but due to the ark dev kit setup with bionic dinos its causing this issue I believe. It wont affect tamed dinos and realistically that should be an admin server decision not a per tribe decision thats really not something for me to comment on.
Dinosaurboy10 9 Jan, 2019 @ 11:51am 
Wanna know what would be a cool addition? Tek creatures that didnt originally have a tek form, like a Tek Therizinosaur or a Tek Wyvern or a Tek Gasbags. Awsome mod so far
Caelum 9 Jan, 2019 @ 1:41am 
Hey Van, cheers on your continuous effort and attention to the mod :) I think Remm asks something in the idea of when there are multiple crafting stations with multiple tribes on the server and one doesn't want to use the killing of normal tek and the other just puts it on.
Vanguard  [author] 9 Jan, 2019 @ 12:59am 
have removed limit on the crafter so BP's should load in to crafter now fine
Vanguard  [author] 8 Jan, 2019 @ 7:30pm 
No power is required for the in off toggle
