BG Gaming Mod List

Every mod running on the BG Gaming ARK: Survival Ascended cluster — 26 hand-picked mods covering creatures, building, quality of life, currency, and admin tools. Hand-picked to improve the experience without breaking the game.

Core Cluster Systems

The backbone of BG Gaming — currency, shop UI, cross-map chat, missions, inventory backups.

FusionShopby Farkom_netMod 1387812
The in-game shop UI. Press F2 (PC) or hold X / Square (Xbox / PS5) to open the shop — categories include dinos, saddles, weapons, kits, resources, potions, skins, and the Subscriber Perks tab. Pays out from your earned coin balance.
ARK CointestMod 954092
The coin currency mod that the cluster economy runs on. Coins are earned from kills, harvesting, login streaks, voting, and quest rewards — spent in FusionShop, subscriber perks, and special events.
LACC — Lethal Ascended Cluster ChatMod 1056780
Cross-map chat. Type in tribe or global on any map and other maps see it. Means our 8-map cluster feels like one community instead of eight isolated servers.
Lethal Quests UIMod 985370
The UI overlay for our daily / weekly / chained quest system. Tracks progress on kill, tame, harvest, and event objectives and pays out coin and item rewards on completion.
Inventory SaverMod 951574
Save and load your inventory snapshots on demand. Useful before risky boss runs or PvE events — if you die you can reload the snapshot via the bag-drop system.

Building & Bases

Everything you need to build serious bases without the vanilla building pain.

Cybers Structures QoL+by CyberAngelMod 940975
200+ custom structures and quality-of-life upgrades. Includes the CS Multi Tool (pick up structures from distance, instant dino kill / mate set, mass demolish), CS Auto Storage (auto-sort resources to chests), the Auto Nanny & Hatchery (feed and imprint babies while offline), Mind Wipe that preserves engrams, dino stat reset, and the gravestone system.
ASA Alfa Oceanic PlatformMod 933447
A buildable ocean platform giving you a stable foundation for water bases. No more constructing on top of plesiosaurs.
Astraeos Ship ModMod 1015955
Custom buildable ships designed for the Astraeos map's huge ocean biome. Gives you a sailing platform with mounted weapons and storage well before Genesis launches the new naval system.

Creatures & Variants

Custom dinos, TLCs, and rare wild variants — far more variety than vanilla.

Shiny! Dinos Ascendedby nevcairielMod 928548
The flagship rare-variant mod. Wild dinos can spawn as Shiny variants with over 40 unique colour sets and special abilities like Frozen, Burning, Spectral, Fathomless, Pygmy, and many more. Tame them for the look and boosted stats, or hunt them for essence and rare resources.
Paleo ARK Evolution Pack 1 (Apex Predators)by UpFromTheDepthsMod 970540
Full TLCs of Tyrannosaurus Rex and Giganotosaurus with all-new models, animations, and abilities. Your old saddles convert automatically. The most popular Paleo ARK pack.
Paleo ARK Evolution Pack 2 (Dangerous Depths)by UpFromTheDepthsMod 1105106
TLCs of ARK's aquatic creatures — new models, animations, and combat abilities for the deep-sea hunters.
Paleo ARK Evolution Pack 3 (Hard Hitting Herbivores)by UpFromTheDepthsMod 1382641
Introduces EVO Therizinosaurus and EVO Brontosaurus with new models and combat moves. The Theri rework alone is worth this pack.
Paleo ARK Plus Pack 2by UpFromTheDepthsMod 1182199
Bonus creatures from the Paleo ARK team adding more variety to the existing roster.
Paleo ARK Ascensionby UpFromTheDepthsMod 986540
Custom "paleo" variants with unique patterns and stat distributions — rare-looking, lore-friendly skins on vanilla creatures.
Moro's Indomitable Duoby MoroNadaMod 928824
Two custom-built creatures: the Moro Rex and the Moro Raptor. Both have hand-crafted models, animations, and boss-fight permissions. They spawn across all maps.
Shadowmane ASEPMod 1135272
Brings the Shadowmane creature (originally from ARK Genesis 2) to ASA. Stealth-capable apex predator with teleport abilities.
Level Testing ModMod 928708
Adjusts the wild dino level cap and level-distribution curve. Pairs with our boosted rates so you actually find high-level wild spawns worth taming.
VS (Variant Spawns)Mod 935528
Spawns rare variant creatures alongside the standard pool. Adds more visual diversity to wild dino populations on every map.

Quality of Life

Mods that fix the annoying parts of vanilla ARK without trivialising the game.

Awesome Spyglass!by ChrisModsMod 947033
The essential spyglass replacement. Shows dino level, stats, gender, taming progress, structure health, loot crate contents, player info, and more — all with a radial-menu customisation panel (R when equipped).
Dino Depotby DelilahEveMod 942024
Modern alternative to cryopods. Stores dinos in "Dinoballs" with dynamic displays and full info tooltips. Supports newborn auto-capture, passive production tracking, and advanced search across stored creatures.
Mouse Saver (Cryopod alternative)Mod 932225
Lightweight cryopod-style storage mod — cheaper to craft than vanilla cryopods, no power requirement.
Flyer Seatbeltsby QuellcrestMod 929811
Prevents accidental dismounts mid-flight. You have to double-tap or long-press the dismount key. Also adds backwards-walk on all mounted dinos and a low-stamina warning. No more dying because you fat-fingered the E key 300m up.
BG PotionsMod 1486266
Custom BG-made stat potions. Includes base-stat potions (Health, Stamina, Oxygen, Food, Weight, Damage) and mutation-stat potions of the same six. Used as Subscriber Perks rewards and high-tier in-game prizes.
Trait CombinerMod 1114862
Lets you combine creature traits from two dinos into one offspring. Strategic breeding tool — merge the best traits from two parents instead of getting the random vanilla outcome.

Events & Mini-games

Mods that power our event server and special gameplay modes.

Hyper's ArenaMod 1008116
The boss-fight arena mod powering our Events server. Players buy a boss packet in FusionShop, the bot detects the purchase and spawns the boss in the arena. One boss alive per server at a time.
Modded Poker TableMod 1299726
A fully functional Texas Hold'em poker table you can place at your base. Bet coins, play with tribemates and visitors. Strictly for fun.
