ARK: Survival Evolved Forum

I've been hosting an ARK server for quite some time now and with multiple tries can't get it to show up in the server list. It showed up the first time but has stopped to do so and won't show up again. This when players were and are able to connect by using the IP without any problems.

I've reinstalled, read multiple forum threads with no solutions, added the server to arkservers.net, done the things suggested in the threads. No, nothing worked.

I've been hosting a Rust server on the same dedicated box using different ports. This one does show up in the steam and rust server browsers. I've ran the same configuration on my home PC. Hosting both ark and rust of the same PC with different ports.
The Ark server showed up on the ARK and Steam server browser within 2 minutes. It didn't matter which server I'd launch first, which I tried on the dedicated box as well.

I know people are asking it over and over, everybody says they've tried everything. But has there been any real solution yet? I could really do with one as it is starting to hurt my brain and as well as we are losing players and it is hurting our community name.

Can you give us a console output?

From the ark server? I'll upload it in 2 minutes.

Did you tried the following startup line (After the ShooterGame.exe):

I launch from a batch file ->
start ShooterGameServer.exe "TheIsland?listen?SessionName=servername has spaces?QueryPort=27015?MapPlayerLocation=True?ServerCrosshair=True?ServerAdminPassword=mypassword?noTributeDownloads=true"

I've added the queryport recently to see if that worked. I've removed it again as well, didn't change anything.
I have launched the server with the exact same batch file on my home PC and everything worked.
As I said, I have copied the setup I'm running on the dedicated box 100% the same on my home PC (except for windows 7 @ home and windows server 2012 @ server). All working on my home PC without any issues still.

I can try and add -nosteamclient, but I highly doubt this will change anything, since my server ran from home doesn't have that in the command line / batch file as well.

Not every network/computer is the same but worth trying. As for dedicated servers I would recommend adding the flags after the quotes I have given to you.
