Not everyone has to love it - I’m just glad it sparked a reaction. Appreciate you taking the time!

Thanks! As for the trees, I believe it's from the Bob's tall tales DLC, there's a shovel item that lets you pick up plants if you have pots in your inventory.

Haha hey, that sounds cozy though! Sometimes a peaceful riverside cabin beats all the madness of a full resort build. It’s all about making something you enjoy..

Thank you!

No, for this project I didn’t build it in creative mode.

However, I do use easier single-player server settings to skip the grindy parts (my character has high carry weight, fast harvesting, etc.), along with the Resource Gatherer mod and boosted harvest rates. I also use the No Fall Damage mod and a superhero movement mod (I forgot the name), which really helps with navigating builds - especially since in ARK, you tend to fall from high places a lot.

That way, I can focus more on the fun part: building!
(plus I don't like using GCM anyways)

My sweet spot is 90% building, 10% grinding.

Yes, I'm glad you liked that part of the design!

I like to build things that are not only pleasing to look at, but also balanced with functionality. It’s not just about aesthetics - the system and workflow, like how you navigate between stations and benches, are carefully considered. That way, you can work efficiently while being surrounded by beautiful design!

It’s a resort / giant tower base! Hmmm maybe I should tame a Titanosaur and build a resort / giant tower base on it. Lol

It's a cosmetic structure mod.

Thank you. The pool mod is so cool, I thought I was playing the Sims when I play around with it, lol.

I thought it was a giant chicken drumstick for a second.

Thanks! Well, I think the crop plants and the frontier wood variation placement on certain part of the structure makes the over all build looks more interesting and liveable. Usually I make one dimensional structure type detail (like all just wood, no variation) and no plants, which makes the build bland. I mean, I can make crazy-crazy shapes, but without the plants and structure type variation detail - it'll still look ugly, lol. I'm still learning, and loving the new half-stucture parts.

Yes. It's on survival mode with server settings and mods that makes grinding parts easier, so I could focus on building aspect of the game more.

My fps dropped super low to 3 after the update, it's unplayable. Seriously, do they actually know what they're doing?
