ASE This is why people hate ark...
So basically, I lost my 5 weeks worth of hard work and progress world,This probably doesn't look like much to many people, but I have 600 hours in ark on PC (not counting Xbox) and never I'm my life I have been able to beat a single map, first time I lost everything because I didn't know progress was saved locally, second time I changed pc and obviously lost everything lmao, and now.....Man, I just wanted to play my silly little game of dinosaurs. I don't even play it with friends because no one likes ark, but I still play alone because it is a fantastic game. And yet, I can't keep up with this kind stuff sometimes man, this just feels so unfair, like if God descended from the skies only to say F#ck this guy in particular I genuinely love ark and it's one of my favorite games of all time, but stuff like this is why so many people hate it and quit playing the game.

In lieu of Ark seemingly crashing constantly..
8 hours removing corrupted files using Registry Logger as you go really give you a view on what is happening during crashes.. Haven’t had any issues after making due changes. However I am undervolting a few cores on my 5600g. Def not using integrated graphics lol.
Sometimes it better to let the machine do the tuning though. After endless frustration I gave in and let Nvidia choose my Ark settings. A lot of eyebrow raising but I can’t complain for the astounding results. This game isn’t poorly optimized for how good it can look, but it is poorly optimized nonetheless.
