Understanding Deinonychus Spawns
The Deinonychus Spawn Command
As stated, the core command to spawn a Deinonychus is DeinonychusCharacterBP_C. This command typically works with the admincheat GMSummon prefix in the console, so the full command to spawn a wild Deinonychus is:
admincheat GMSummon "Deinonychus_Character_BP_C" <level>
Replace <level> with the desired level of the spawned Deinonychus. For a tamed version, use admincheat summon.
Deinonychus Nests
Deinonychus don’t spawn randomly across the map like some other creatures. Instead, they are found primarily in or around their nests. These nests are structures that contain Deinonychus eggs, which are the key to obtaining a tamed Deinonychus, as they can’t be tamed through traditional means.
Where to Find Deinonychus Nests
The Deinonychus nests are specific to certain DLC maps. Currently, they are found in ARK: Survival Evolved’s Valguero and Fjordur DLC maps, primarily in the White Cliffs area of these locations. If you are having trouble finding them:
- Ensure you have explored the area thoroughly.
- Give the game some time to load in the nests by playing for an hour.
- Use the “WipeWildDino” command, then rejoin to refresh the spawns.
