Spent the last week trying to get all 8 of the cave Artifacts on the island "Solo" which was an interesting experience to say the least lol.
Just completed the final and hardest one tonight - Snow Cave after attempt #4. 

Go caving they said, it'll be fun they said lol yeah right, sure was exciting though.  Mounted on the back of a 125k HP 7.6k melee Rex all the way to the artifact with two high level dimorphs.  Barely managed to make it back with 10k HP left on Rex and both birds almost dead.  Certainly the hardest cave by far, especially with the high dino level difficulty.  Rex lost 30k HP in under a minute from the first mob of Yeti's - they sure pack a hard punch 

There seems to be an issue with placing down any of the structures from the Building Xtra's and Valentine Xtra's mods.  The green placement shadow shows but you are unable to place the structure once you left click.

I've been doing some testing and so far it only seems to be those two mods that are affected.  All structures from the Ark Advanced 9.0 mod are working fine.  I have been reading through the comments and discussions of the mod authors workshop page and others have confirmed they are also having the same issue.  It has been suggested to check the update status on the mods higher on the load list, as a failed update has been a known cause of this issue for others.

I'm not sure if this will help hunt down the problem but everyone on the server began reporting the issue with mod placement on the 21st April which once again coincides with the most recent release/update of the Ark Advanced mod (v9.0).

If you find time to take a look at it I am sure the others and myself would be very thankful for any assistance you can render

Sorry guys, I didn't know a quicker way to inform you of what just happened (as I hardly see any of you on the server lately) but I unintentionally killed one of your rex's tonight. 

Let me explain, I just completed a 4hr tame on a 616 giga and was flying home with it following behind (on passive).  I was making my way around the bottom of the volcano (near the cave entrance) when my giga got jumped by an aggro high level tamed rex I think belonging to JustFaKix it was wondering around the wild must have got out from his yard when the server was having issues with the mods (and all the modded fences disappeared). 

It attacked and almost killed my new Giga, which in turn made the Giga go rage mode.  In less than 1min it took my giga's hp from 36k to less than 3k before the Giga just managed to kill it.  The rage mode made it turn on me and kill my best quets as well (the one I was riding) but there was nothing I could do.  I tried to whistle it passive to call it away from the rex but I don't think it works if its raged.

So once again sorry but the giga just reacted defensively when it took such massive damage from that rex.  And there were losses on both sides

Game/computer crashed while I was on my Quets flying, rebooted only to find update was released and now can't get back in lol so can you please update when you have the time Gutty.  Thanks in advance.

Just a quick post to say the server froze again @ 11:40am.  Good opportunity to get some 'real life' stuff done lol, not to say I wouldn't be happy if you have time to restart it Gutty

Sup guys sorry to be a pain in the ass, especially at this time of the year when everyone is on holiday, but I have to ask for someone to checkout the Vanilla server as it just went down again.  Same as last time we all show as active on in-game browser but we can't reconnect.

And as always your help is much appreciated.

Hi guys v228.0 winter wonderland update has been released was hoping we could get someone to save and update the server please, when your free to do so of course, thanks in advance .
