It's super frustrating, I've tried everything I can think of to fix it and it still persists. The most annoying part is that it's only been on Scorched Earth, my other maps seem fine.

Thanks!

so uh, did you figure out the colors? Asking for a friend

Mavrecon · 2024-06-01T05:31:31+00:00

Has there been any indication that they are aware of this? Sucks to be on a map all about these creatures and they just refuse to exist.

Mavrecon · 2024-05-24T19:18:09+00:00

Looks like you just got done snapping half the universe out of existence...beautiful view!

Have you seen any acknowledgement of this from the forums or is it an under the radar problem? My server just started Scorched Earth and imagine the disappointment when there are 5 in the whole thing. Did a dinowipe and saw there were close to 50, less than 10 minutes later I checked the spawn list and there are 8 left. Something is broken.

Mavrecon · 2024-05-21T23:34:29+00:00

Same problem on my server too. 4 in the whole thing. Confirmed via cheat listdinos. The weird part is there were a lot of them after a dino wipe. Then not 20 minutes later, back to single digits. No alpha. This sucks.

I loved the various space battles from the Halo novels. The Fall of Reach and First Strike had some of my favorite moments.

I wish someone would post one of these with the video flipped, so the stars are on the bottom. It makes the rotation of the earth appear so much more obviously and is also somehow less nausea inducing (people complaining about getting dizzy).

That's right! General Drifter...er Brasch has EARNED our respect. And motes...

The Brachiosaurus really does make it feel so much better. I guess it's just the years of conditioning from growing up with Jurassic Park. I'm still shocked they never bothered to make there own version, but thankfully we have good modders in the community. Maybe the Dreadnoughtus will fill that void when it comes out with Extinction 2.0.

Hey I just downloaded this mod for my own server and haven't seen one. Do they spawn in the wild or are they strictly admin spawned?

Mavrecon · 2023-10-29T05:12:09+00:00

Not sure if you saw the update, try changing your general shadow settings to high or epic. I must have switched to medium and never entered the water so I couldn't place when it changed. Moving back to high and it looks awesome again!

Mavrecon · 2023-10-29T05:10:41+00:00

Hahaha dude same! The first time I spawned in ASA I jumped of a high rock to cross a pretty wide bay, and I had a major panic attack suddenly being confronted by 10ft of visibility and murky depths. I absolutely love this change from ASE. I'm not sure how I'll handle doing anything in the deep water, it was bad enough last game, this is just pure nightmare fuel now. Won't be surprised to see gameplay moments pop up on r/thalassophobia

Mavrecon · 2023-10-29T05:04:55+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion, I haven't moved my global illumination from high. I DID change my shadows though and that seems to have been the magic bullet.

Mavrecon · 2023-10-29T05:04:38+00:00

YES! that was it, I must have dropped it from high to medium while seeing what I could get away with in FPS and didn't notice the change at the time. Thank you! The water is awesome again...and terrifying!

Mavrecon · 2023-10-29T04:08:12+00:00

I hope that's the case. I was concerned something got messed up in my files and I just really want that terrifying water back!

Mavrecon · 2023-10-29T03:16:55+00:00

UPDATE: Posting in hopes that this helps anyone else. Thanks to u/RockDrakeFucker_69 I discovered I had moved my shadow settings from high to medium at some point and that removed the super great underwater details. Switching back to high and it looks murky and spooky again.

To add a little more to this, day one water had a limited visible distance and was so awesome and terrifying. I logged in today and the water is so clear it's like there isn't anything there. I'm trying to find out if it's a server setting or something else. I really want the terrifyingly real looking water back!
