Olympus News and Updates October 2019
This month Olympus will be receiving a major performance boost in update 4.3 as well as some quality of life improvements for ocean dwellers and the introduction of the Deinonychus to the map! The new cave for the artifact of the cunning and altars are being delayed for now, the more I dug into performance tweaks, it became clear that I needed to make that the priority this go round. At this point planning to release them at the end of this month or early next to give them the proper attention. Hope everyone has a happy Halloween and have fun exploring! :)

Welcome to Olympus, once home to the mighty gods of old. It has been many years since they ruled over this world, and time has not been kind. Explore the wilds of this once great civilization, discover its secrets, and see if you have what it takes to ascend and stand as equals with those who came before!
Olympus is designed to be a more scifi feeling ARK. Due to years of neglect, several areas of once hidden advanced technology are visible and some has even taken on a life of its own. I wanted to try and create a blend of nature and machine to make a unique and different experience.
The map is roughly 1.4 times the size of the island and the landscape itself was completely hand sculpted. Olympus uses a combination of vanilla and custom spawns, so most dino mods will be compatible. I look forward to working together with the community to make this the best map it can be :) All feedback on possible issues and suggestions are appreciated.
Completion:
- Surface - 93%
- Underwater - 75%
- Underground - 50%
- Endgame custom boss arenas will be added after their necessary artifact caves. Island boss arenas are a temporary place holder.
- Overall - ~80% (Of what I'd like to add, currently 100% playable)
