How to use ARK: Survival Evolved ModMenu
Ark ModMenu — tutorial
by TheHolyOneZ · zlogic.eu/ (more mod menus) · zsync.eu/ (more projects)
A mod menu for ARK: Survival Evolved (Unreal Engine 4.5.1). Only ever download
it from zlogic.eu/mods/ — anything anywhere else is not mine.
Before you start
- Never launch with BattlEye. Use "Launch ARK (No BattlEye)", or start
ShooterGame.exedirectly. Never inject into a BattlEye session. - Antivirus will flag the injector. Loading a DLL into a game is what real malware does, so Defender throws a false positive. Add the folder as an exclusion (Windows Security → Virus & threat protection → Manage settings → Exclusions → Add → Folder), or the injector may be deleted on extract.
- Keep
Inject-ArkMenu.exeandArkMenu.dllin the same folder — the injector looks for the DLL right next to itself.
Run it
- Start ARK (No BattlEye) and load into a map — be controlling your character.
- If the menu ever shows nothing, set the game to Borderless / Windowed in the video options (an overlay can't draw over exclusive fullscreen). Do it once.
- Run
Inject-ArkMenu.exe. It waits for the game, checks the build, injects.
- If it says OpenProcess failed, right-click it → Run as administrator.
- Press INSERT or RIGHT SHIFT to open the menu. Press it again to close.
- Press END to unload the menu completely.
What each tab does
- Player — god mode, infinite stats (health/stamina/food/water/oxygen/weight), and each of those individually.
- Movement — fly, noclip, speed hack (run + swim), per-dino ride speed (mount → set multiplier → Apply → Reset), super jump.
- Dinos — force/soft tame the dino under your crosshair, kill/destroy target, destroy all wild dinos, summon a dino from a searchable list at any level.
- Items — give any item from a searchable list (or free text), set quantity / quality / blueprint, unlock all engrams.
- Weapons — no recoil, no spread, infinite ammo, rapid fire, aimbot (aim key, FOV, smoothing, target players/dinos), silent aim.
- Visuals — ESP for players, wild dinos, tamed dinos, structures and drops — each with its own box / dot / tracer / name / distance / level and colour; distance and dino-level filters; FOV override.
- World — time of day, game speed (slomo), destroy wild dinos.
- Console — run any admin command, plus quick buttons.
- Settings — overlay/FPS options, accent colour, save/load your config, and the links above.
Good to know
- Most cheats work in single player or when YOU host. ARK's server owns your stats/items/dinos, so on someone else's server those are marked HOST and won't apply. What works as a client is marked LOCAL (ESP, aimbot, no-recoil, FOV) or CLIENT (silent aim). Nothing here is for wrecking other people's worlds.
- Fly / noclip: close the menu first, then fly with your normal movement keys; jump and crouch go up and down.
- Version numbers: ARK's version strings differ between Steam, Epic and other editions, so the menu doesn't check one — it checks the game's real build. If it stops applying in-game after an update, the game changed and it needs a rebuild.
