Good afternoon,
[p][/p][p]We continue our efforts to provide updates as we address issues for both ARK: Aquatica and ARK: Survival Evolved. Studio Sirens remains dedicated to providing updates daily as issues are being logged or addressed. We are also maintaining visibility regarding bugs reported into the #「????」support channel on the Official ARK: Aquatica Discord.[/p][p][/p][p]In continued support of transparency, continued showcase of progress as well as Aquatica DLC specific content, Studio Sirens developer, Z_Swell will continue to stream live throughout the week![/p]- [p]The plan for these streams is to review the updates from the latest efforts, preview upcoming fixes, and answer player/community questions.[/p][/*]
- [p]The current schedule will be: Tuesday (7/29) and Thursday (7/31) at 2PM PST.[/p][/*]
- [p]Stream link: [dynamiclink href="https://www.twitch.tv/Z_Swell"][/dynamiclink][/p][/*]
[/p]
We are currently experiencing issues with the latest update, rather than introduce new issues, we will delay the update until a solution is found. We will continue testing to be able to release the next update in full soon.
[p][/p]On Tuesday (7/22), we released an update that included a fix for loading mods that will continue to be developed. Another solution will be coming soon. While we have specifically tested certain mods, we are going through a list provided by the community.
In the meantime, the ‘preaquatica’ branch will remain available.
