Features
- Naming patterns are reworked. Many keywords are removed and can now be accessed by functions. See the manual for more informations.
- For example if you used
{species_short}
to get the first 4 characters of the species name, you have to use{{#substring: {species} | 0 | 4}}
now. - All keywords with stat names now use the same 2 letter abbreviations, e.g. it is now
{st}
,{we}
and{dm}
instead of ,{stam}
,{weight}
and{dmg}
. - All keywords regarding time are replaced by the function
{{#time: formatString}}

Tweaks
- small update of French translation by Yanuut
- savegame importer imports colors as they are saved. This enables importing dye colors on creatures which can happen in mutations. On the other hand, this may result in wrong or no colors in ASB. If you don't use any mods that add colors, you can adjust these color ids in the library by right-clicking on a creature and select
Fix colors
. If you use mods that change colors, this may screw up the colors of that creature, so create a backup of the library-file first.
Fixes
- Fix for naming pattern related exception when a creature is imported
General Infos
Which version to take?
- Use the setup-ArkSmartBreeding-(version).exe for an installation in the system's programs folder. Suitable for single user installations.
- Extract the ARK.Smart.Breeding_(version).zip in an arbitrary folder to use it as a portable or shared installation.
Species Images
The image-files have to be downloaded separately when using the zip version: Creature-Images. Extract the folder "img" to the same folder where the executable is located to get better visuals of the creature's colors. Currently 29 creatures are included. You don't need to redownload this file if you already have the creature-images.
