ARK Survival Ascended Mods on CurseForge - The official Home for all ARK Survival Ascended Mods 
Respawn into a new dinosaur survival experience beyond your wildest dreams… as ARK is reimagined from the ground-up into the next-generation of videogame technology with Unreal Engine 5! You awake on a mysterious island, your senses overwhelmed by the blinding sunlight and brilliant colors bouncing off every surface around you, the azure waters of a verdant Island lapping at your bare feet. A deep roar echoes from the misty jungle, jolting you into action, and you stand up – not afraid, but intrigued. Are you ready to form a tribe, tame and breed hundreds of species of dinosaurs and other primeval creatures, explore, craft, build, and fight your way to the top of the food-chain? Your new world awaits… step through the looking-glass and join it!

Survival Ambience
Alters ingame light system to shift it from stylized towards natural, aimed at survival gameplay style. Adjusts weather and weather visual effects.
mod ID: 930265
Key Features:
<ul>
<li>natural moon and darker nights - no longer nights look like days with blue sun, moonlight is still strong, so vast open spaces remain well lit, but when moon is obscured or when in unlit places, it gets dark</li>
<li>reworked daily cycle with actual twighlight hour and more natural daylight better looking shadows with no oversaturation spots creeping</li>
<li>improved volumetrics - smoother godrays, dynamic moving volume fog and custom pattern clouds</li>
<li>no fake exposure compensation in caves - they're still pretty lit due to multitude of biolum and otherwise emissive things, but dark corners and corridors, are dark</li>
<li>customized water shaders and custom light scattering function for ocean underwater that gives deep-diving more natural feel</li>
<li>custom weather type: thunderstorm added to island and center map</li>
<li>expanded basegame weather types - custom, distinct visuals and temperature events beyond just coldfront and heatwave</li>
<li>crossplay compatible</li>
<li>supports The Island, Scorched Earth, Aberration, Extinction and The Center maps</li>
</ul>
