About the Future of Archotek
We have already mentioned it a couple of times on Discord, but here is the official statement about the future of Archotek (Read Me): https://trello.com/b/Ghz1JNVL/the-archotek-project-roadmap
The Archotek Project focuses on a multiplayer experience, giving you the chance to play with your friends or with new people on dedicated servers. Play as the dinosaur as you explore vibrant and exotic locations within the game, taking control of unique species from the fossil record.

A build is one published version of the game's files on a branch. Steam assigns a new build ID every time the developer pushes an update, so this list is the update history of the app. The files inside a build (depot manifests) are only readable with an account that owns the game, which SteamRaw does not have yet, so build contents are not shown.

A couple of demo players reported having problems joining servers. We just rolled out a small patch, which hopefully fixed the error. Please let us know, if you are still experiencing issues.
We pushed all the changes that were being made on dev branch to public branch. Some additions are still incomplete, but being worked on and improved over the coming months. The new patch includes: - Turning based on mouse rotation - Head turning - Character acceleration - Sleeping (Press H to rest and then J to sleep; J and H to stand up) - Footstep sound improvements - Basic playable aquatics (predators and prey) - Location updates (Aran Desert & Sanctuary) - New herbivore food indicator - Performance improvements, etc. We hope you enjoy the update! - ATP Dev Team
Hello everyone! Head turning has been added to the beta branch "development" and is awaiting testing. We also fixed some minor issues which got introduced with the last patch and did some small performance improvements. We are aware of the bugs that let you move and partially attack during resting and sleeping. These are issues, which can only be fixed through an engine update, which will happen at a later point in time. Here is a short video of the new additions and changes that have been made with the last patches. - ATP Dev Team
Aquatic animals are available for testing on development (beta) branch! New animals: - Mosasaurus - Ophthalmosaurus - Leedsichthys - Dunkleosteus - Helicoprion - Mawsonia - Coelacanth - Doryaspis - Drepanaspis They are still heavily being worked on, but playable. Hunger and thirst are disabled for aquatic creatures. Hunger will be enabled as soon as underwater eating is implemented. Some sounds will get a rework, especially attack sounds.
There have been a couple of posts asking about dedicated servers. We are dealing with a couple of problems in our code, since our old programmer Deathlyrage abandoned the project, who basically coded the entire game. That includes issues with hosting dedicated servers. We tried to host a few servers through Pingperfect and our internal server host, but the issue remains. Until this problem is solved, players will have to host their own listen servers (make sure you meet the minimum requirements ant have a good internet connection). The amount of programming issues we are dealing with at the mo
We moved the current build from development branch to public branch. A lot of changes have been made since the last time we patched this version. A large portion of the changelog got lost due to logistical changes, which unfortunately cost us months of development time. We are aware of some issues regardling replication and dedicated servers not working right now, however we are working on them and will let you know when they are fixed. Also as we stated in several posts before, the new builds don't support Linux and Mac anymore. However your game will work on Windows or you can switch to the

Unfortunately a lot of real life stuff got in the way, so the work on ATP had to be delayed by a couple of more months, but we are slowly getting back. We are currently working on a development branch (beta branch) server that will be open to everyone, since we have to change our workflow due to changes in the dev team. This has a positive and negative side to it. The positive aspect is, everyone can check out the progress directly withou
The old servers are currently offline and we are waiting for approval from the new host. Unfortunately, due to the holidays, service is a bit slow at the moment, so we don't know when the new servers will be up, but you are still able to host listen servers. Just don't forget to port forward! We will be back as soon as possible!

We are aware of the current server issues and are working on getting new servers up and running. We will let you know, when the new servers are working.
