WBUI2

Simple editable UI to display information

Crossplatform available!

A massive shoutout to DelilahEve, creator of DinoDepot, for dedicating so much time and effort to WBUI2, even when she could have been focusing on her own projects. We appreciate you!

This mod is a "rework" and port of the popular mod "Editable Server UI (WBUI)" from ASE.
It gives you the ability to display rules, settings, upcoming events, or general information about your server.

In addition to providing useful information to your players, it enables you to add buttons that directly open the browser to your community website, support Discord, or the ARK forum, keeping your players always up to date with just one click from within the game!

Ingame Editing available!

  • You can edit the UI appearance ingame. So you have direct feedback on how the UI is going to look
  • When you're done you can click the "Show Json" button, which displays the raw JSON. This gives you the ability to export the JSON easily to a hosting provider you like (github preferred) and use the "JsonUrl" entry.

GameUserSettings.ini

[WBUI2]
JsonURL="enter-your-url-between-the-quotes"

All scriptcommands can be used via rcon or from the ingame console. If you run them from the ingame console you need to be an admin and prefix the commands with cheat
