ARK FPS BOOST: BEST GUIDE AND CODES

To enable the controls, we first need to turn on the console in Settings->ADVANCED->Console Access->ON.

Change the settings according to your PC, but remember that ARK is extremely heavy, i recommend it for any PC - Medium/Low Settings for a solid 70/80 FPS base
