Learn How To Host A Non Dedicated Server in Ark (2023 Guide). This video will show you how to host a non dedicated server on ark survival evolved. To host a non-dedicated server in Ark: Survival Evolved, follow these steps:

Launch Ark: Survival Evolved on your computer.

Start a Single Player game or load an existing Single Player save.

In the Single Player game, press the "Escape" key (on PC) or the corresponding button on your platform (e.g., "Menu" on console) to bring up the pause menu.

From the pause menu, select the option that says "Host/Local."

In the "Host/Local" menu, you will see various settings for hosting your non-dedicated server. You can adjust options like Game Mode, Difficulty, Taming Speed, Harvesting Multiplier, etc., to customize your game.

Look for the setting called "Dedicated Server." Set this option to "Non-Dedicated" to enable hosting a non-dedicated server.

You can also set a password for your server under the "Password Protected" option if you want to restrict access to only your friends.

Once you've configured the settings to your liking, click the "Play Single Player" button at the bottom of the screen to start your non-dedicated server.

Now, your non-dedicated server is active, and you can invite your friends to join. They can join your game by selecting "Join Ark" from the main menu and then choosing your session from the list of available sessions.

Keep in mind that non-dedicated servers have limitations, such as a restricted distance from the host player and potential performance issues when multiple players are far apart. If you want a more robust and unrestricted server experience, you may consider hosting a dedicated server or renting one from a hosting provider.
