| − | Creating Dinos with packs like the Allosaurus can be a bit annoying - a lot of graphs have to be copied and modified to fit each Dino.
| + | Starting with the dev kit 264 you just need to re-parent your Character BP to "Dino_Character_BP_Pack". Check out Direwolf, Allosaurus or Hyaenodon asexamples. |
| − | To keep this tutorial simple and fast I created a custom class that can be used as a parent class for Dinos and brings all required settings.<br />
| |
| − | You can find the required files here: https://github.com/taotsetung/arksources

| − | '''How to use:'''
| |
| − | # Download the repository files.
| |
| − | # In your "Mods" directory create this folder structure: "Soyo/Dinos/Special/Pack/"
| |
| − | # Copy the files from the PackDinos in the repository directory to the new folder in your mods directory.
| |
| − | # Restart your Ark Modding Kit.
| |
| − | # You should now see a Character Blueprint and a Buff as well as an example dino (raptor)
| |
| − | # It is possible that you need to properly link the Character Blueprint.
| |
| − | ## Open the Character Blueprint.
| |
| − | ## Find Edit -> Reparent.
| |
| − | ## Reparent to Dino_Character_BP.
| |
| − | # Copy (do NOT subclass) the Character Blueprint of the Dino you would like to enable Packs for.
| |
| − | # Reparent your copied Dino to the Character Blueprint from the repository.
| |
| − | # In the reparented Dino Blueprint's main tab find the category "Pack" to modify all relevant settings.
| |
| − | # It might be necessary to link the Buff correctly (I am not sure if the link is kept after copying).
| |
| − | ## Open the Character Blueprint you copied from the repository.
| |
| − | ## In the main tab find the "Pack" category and look for "Pack Leader Buff Class".
| |
| − | ## Set the buff class you copied from the repository.
| |
| − | # It is possible for cast nodes to become corrupted - they are named "Bad Cast Node", if this happens simply replace the Bad Cast Node with a "Cast To Dino_Character_BP_PackDino" Node.
| |
| − | # Done!
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''Possible problems:'''
| |
| − | As mentioned above cast nodes can become corrupted. In the past this happened to the Pack Leader Buff Graph, so here is the correct version:
