THIS MOD IS CURRENTLY BEING REDONE AND REWORKED!

More Creature Spawns – The Island Expansion (ASA)

This mod expands creature spawns on The Island by adding non-native creatures from other ARK maps into lore-friendly biome locations with balanced spawn percentages.

Creatures that are normally unobtainable on The Island due to missing mechanics, nests, or resources have been adjusted to remain fully obtainable through knockout taming.

Features

• Adds non-native creatures from other maps to The Island
• Custom biome spawn placement and balanced spawn rates
• Wyverns, Rock Drakes, Reapers, Bone, and Ghost creatures are now knockout tameable
• Creatures restricted by missing map mechanics/resources have been reworked into standard knockout tames
• Includes Alpha, Bone, Ghost, Tek, and event creature variants
• Titan spawns added at extremely rare world-boss style rates

Included Creature Types

• Wyverns
• Rock Drakes
• Reapers
• Titans
• Ghost Creatures
• Bone Creatures
• Tek Creatures
• Nameless
• Dreadnoughtus
• Deinonychus
• Deathworms
• Additional cross-map creatures from currently available ASA content

Spawn Balancing

All creatures have been assigned custom spawn locations and spawn percentages designed to:

• preserve Island ecosystem balance
• avoid overspawning
• maintain progression
• keep rare creatures feeling rare

Modding Note

For advanced spawn editing and live spawn management, check out: "B+ Spawn Editor" by boss_89 (ID:1324337)

That mod allows live creature spawn editing on maps without requiring full server restarts, making it excellent for custom ecosystem setups.

OR

MSKYO, which remaps most creatures to knockout tames.

Notes

• Corrupt and Aberrant variants are currently excluded
• Some creatures may still require ownership of their associated DLC to tame or use
• Titans use extremely low spawn rates and function as rare roaming world bosses

Please keep in mind that I’m still fairly new to ARK modding and I’m continuing to learn and improve the mod over time. 😄

If you run into bugs, balance issues, missing creatures, or have suggestions for spawn locations and percentages, feel free to leave feedback. Constructive criticism and helpful suggestions are always appreciated.

Please be patient while I continue updating, balancing, and improving the mod.
