Documentation

Everything you need to install and run your PeriLuck plugins.

Quick start

Get a plugin running on your ARK Survival Ascended server in four steps.

  1. 1. Download your plugin

    After purchase, open your account and go to My Plugins. Click Download on any active plugin to get its file (ZIP, RAR, DLL or PAK).

  2. 2. Install it on your server

    Stop your ARK Survival Ascended server, place the plugin file in your server's plugins folder, then start the server again. Each plugin ships with a short readme describing any extra step.

  3. 3. Add your license key

    Copy your Global Key from your account overview and paste it into the plugin's configuration. The key validates your license when the server starts.

  4. 4. Register your server IP

    In your account, set your ARK server IP. Only that address is allowed to validate your licenses, so make sure it matches your live server.

Installation guide

PeriLuck plugins are made for ARK Survival Ascended dedicated servers. The exact folder and file format depend on how your server is hosted, but the flow is always the same: stop the server, add the plugin file, configure your license key, restart.

Typical layout

ShooterGame/
└── Binaries/
    └── Win64/
        └── plugins/
            └── <plugin-name>/
                ├── plugin file
                └── config.json   <- paste your Global Key here

Always keep a backup of your server before installing a new plugin, and read the readme included with each download for plugin-specific options.

License key & server IP

Each account has one Global Key used by all your plugins. Plugins check this key, together with your registered server IP, when the server boots.

Keep your key private — sharing it may get your license suspended. You can view and copy your key, and update your server IP, from your account overview.

Updates

Active licenses include free updates. When a new version is released for a plugin you own, download it again from My Plugins and replace the file on your server. Updates may be required to stay compatible with the latest ARK Survival Ascended patches.
