    With life settling down, and my other gaming quieting a bit, we decided over the weekend to revisit Ark: Survival Evolved. We run a home server, so it is a customized and private world, mainly because we dont want to deal with the annoyances of public players. It has been over a year since the…

    By this point, the new expansion for Ark: Survival Evolved will be released, and hopefully our custom server will be running the new Extinction content.  The wife is rather eager for the new material – she has plans of taming and crafting the new materials in the fresh land to explore.  Personally, I am fairly…

    As our interest fades on Ark: Survival, we have converted over to the newly released Conan Exiles.  Still a survival game, but a much different world.  Gone are the dinosaurs, and now there are various tribes that fight against your growth to eventually conquering the world.  The interesting challenge is the subject matter, in comparison…

    A popular game with my family has been Ark: Survival Evolved, a multi-player dinosaur themed survival game that we have played since well before its official release.  Over the last couple of years, we have switched back and forth between a few different server options, sometimes trying to host the custom server ourselves, and sometimes…

    Similar to my Nextcloud difficulties, I have also been having difficulties with our custom private Ark servers since the release of Aberration. The original servers with The Island and Scorched Earth are still working fine, but I wanted to add an Aberration server as well.

    So apparently the provider from which I subscribe and rent a pair of Ark private servers “lost” my account information and my active server instance.  The good news (what there is) is that only one of the two servers was impacted, but unfortunately it was our primary gaming world – in which we had spent…

    I was attempting to configure a custom Ark server for my son, who is eager to try some of the numerous Admin codes, but unfortunately it was overloading my minimal webserver, and preventing WordPress from responding.  As a result, you may have noticed a lot of lag over the last couple of days, or pages…

    My kids recently have taken an interested in online gaming streaming, specifically around our efforts with Ark: Survival Evolved.  After a bit of discussion, they have encouraged me to try my hand at that sort of effort and content again myself.  I had previously made some short-lived efforts which lived on Twitch, but never really…
