This was due to the global Cloud Flare outage.

So the BabyImprintAmountMultiplier,
The idea behind it was this: You can scale and tweak the cuddle interval & maturation times as you would before, the BabyImprintAmountMuiplier works on top of that to give you the ability to make imprinting less strict about being perfectly on time for all of the cuddle windows.
say you want to make it so they player only has to hit half the windows? just set the imprint amount multiplier to 2.0
The imprint amount multiplier does not affect the number of cuddle windows you get, just the amount of imprinting you get from each one. It is impacted b

We don't need an EGS forum section as it's the same crossplay build as the Steam version.

It is important to try and figure out why it is crashing. Callstacks are important for this and there is a persistent log file (In the saved folder) that exists for trying to diagnose crashes that happen really fast.
More often than not when I see crashes when trying to open massive materials it often comes down to ram, so this my be an "Out of memory" crash. Generating shaders for the DDC can be extremely intensive.
Also are these wildcards landscape materials that you are trying to open? Or are they your own old Material instances? if they are your own, It is possible that changes in th

When devkit updates are posted they will usually be added to the stickied post in this forum (https://forums.unrealengine.com/development-discussion/modding/ark-survival-evolved), and I usually send out a notification in the community run discord where most of the modding community is active.
A devkit update is in the works but they can take a while, especially large content updates like Crystal Isles.

Primal Fear is a community favorite among overhaul mods. It won the popular vote in a mod competition and is still regularly updated and expanded.
Distributed across several mods in the collection, so that players can pick and choose content to a degree, Primal Fear adds a plethora of creature variants and items, as well as plenty of quality of life adjustments.

Hope has been around for quite some time, and has seen a lot of quality and polish updates since it's original release.
An almost familiar setup with solid creative direction.
If you aren't looking for some of the more abnormal and surreal maps, give Hope a try!

Want some extra hustle and bustle in the world?
Marnii has you covered with this wildlife mod. It doesn't put dragons everywhere, it doesn't fill the world with hulking beasts that could murder you with a glance.
This mod adds the touches of normal wildlife in an otherwise very abnormal world.

I’m pretty sure we have all dreamed of having our own backyard water slides and roller coasters. (Zen may have actually tried at one point, and failed… obviously) But now you can do just that in your base. Build that mine-cart roller-coaster that plows through your living room or a water-slide to the lava pools out back!

RP communities have been a long time aspect of ARK, but sometimes our core structures can feel a bit insubstantial when you are trying to build a set for acting in. Roleplay Additional Items can add a lot more flourish to your locations from lighting structures and gear, to new taxidermy stations!

Tired of dinosaurs? Of course you aren’t, but sometimes we do want a little change in our diet. Dead Survival does just that, you can swap out the wildlife of the game with some … not… quite life? Zombies… I’m trying to say you can have zombies. Lots and lots of zombies. Hordes of them even.

It's unfortunate that in the 60 seconds it took me to create this image, you think the dev team has completely stopped all work. The team have been and still are working hard to fix all high-priority issues.

Ah I see now.
That outputs the actual color values though and not just an index so I am not sure why the names would be needed in this case.
As for the ancestry thing, possibly... That's pretty low priority right now but I'll put a request task for that
