We are currently experiencing issues with the latest game engine update that would allow more mods to load, rather than introduce new issues, we will delay the game engine update until a solution is found. We will continue testing to be able to release the next update in full soon. We have reverted the initial fix of dinos/ships disappearing cryopod issue to prevent long load times with primalgamedata. This is a complicated issue, the developers have elected to roll back this fix to accelerate load times and provide a solution soon. Remember that this bug will be reintroduced by reverting our initial fix and loss of dinos/ships/cryopod issues without tribe logs will happen again. Current top priority issues:
In the meantime, the ‘preaquatica’ branch will remain available. Patch notes for today’s update (v360.7 Live Branch)

More Tek Engram additions have been proposed and are a work in progress. There is an issue with in-game broadcasting of server downtime warnings. Some servers may see the warnings but not others.

On Tuesday (7/22), we released an update that included a fix for loading mods that will continue to be developed. Another solution will be coming soon. While we have specifically tested certain mods, we are going through a list provided by the community. While the specific game engine issue is being addressed and is progressing, we would also like to iterate that FPS optimization and server cluster transfer work will be elevated to a higher priority on our pipeline. We will continue to provide updates on these issues as they are developed. The last update on Friday (7/25) developed a potential issue with “PrimalGameData” taking a long time to load. The game might seem to be stalled but it does in fact load, it will take a while. After the first time loading, joining servers/loading into the game returns to normal speed. We advise that players do not bail out/close the program and let the program load normally for the first time. Currently, we are dealing with a few complex issues regarding fixes that are going into the next update, we hope to have an update soon. In the meantime, the ‘preaquatica’ branch will remain available. Issues pipeline and coming fixes (v360.6 Live Branch)
