Pythagoras Support Beams - transfer structural support horizontally, allowing building out over a wider area than the base game allows
ARK SURVIVAL EVOLVED DISCUSSION MODS
LBPR- Additional Features - iirc this ‘fixes’ collisions on a lot of the benches so they take up a bit less room, but mostly I use it for a great Tavern build set, that is good in itself but is also in neutral colours, so goes well with most other sets (plus has some walls that are the same on both sides and can look good for interior walls dividing rooms)įashionist - allows re-skinning of armor and weapons, ability to change the appearances of your thralls etcĪrena Pier, & Northern Timber - two great mods that add additional build pieces (like half height walls/stairs, and 2x2 gates) But there are plenty of other great mods, depending on exactly what you personally want from the game. Most of all, I would recommend LBPR (Less Building Placement Restrictions) as it allows greater freedom for building (kinda CE’s version of S+, as I understand it). However - there are plenty of mods that are good to have if they are things you like. There are no mods that are required to play SP, the game functions fine without. The only settings that I would say are essential to at least consider changing for SP are the animal and thrall taming times - at basic game rates they can be over 24 hours for a t4 thrall, and on SP the timer stops when you logout (because the ‘server’ also stops) - so it can be a good idea to shorten these timers to a level that suits you (I go for about 0.4 as that seems to work out about right for me). Eventually, as I build bigger and gather too many followers, I do find some performance degradation (but usually only within the oversized base itself) - and mostly it is something that starts fine during a session, but gets a bit worse as I play for several hours. I’m no expert ( understands the tech side far better than I do), but I can say that I have played for ‘quite a lot’ of hours, exclusively on singleplayer without significant problems.
