Valguero combines several ARK biome styles in one DLC map, including an Aberration-style underground zone and large buildable regions. The server needs the Valguero_P map value selected before restart.

  1. Back up the server before changing the active map: Backing up and restoring world and player data on your ARK server.
  2. Open the ARK service in TCAdmin.
  3. Click Commandline Manager.

  4. Set up a Valguero command line, or edit the selected one if the server should always run Valguero: Creating a custom command line on your ARK server.
  5. Tick Map, then enter Valguero_P exactly.

  6. Save the command line, select it, and restart the server.

Valguero uses the Valguero_P startup value, not just Valguero. Copy it exactly to avoid booting the wrong map.
