About

The VR Ferox is a Fantasy-class creature introduced in the Genesis DLC. It represents the large, transformed state of the Ferox within the VR simulation environment, distinguished from the standard variant by its entity ID and name tag.

Admins targeting this creature for spawning or management commands should use the entity ID Shapeshifter_Large_Character_BP_TameSTA_C and the name tag Bigly. These identifiers are specific to this VR variant, so using generic Ferox identifiers may summon the wrong creature or fail entirely.

Because this creature is tied to the Genesis DLC, it will only appear and function correctly on Genesis maps or servers with Genesis content enabled. Keep that in mind when configuring spawn entries or running creature-related admin commands.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I spawn the VR Ferox Creature over RCON or on a dedicated server?
Send the same command through RCON or your control panel: admincheat Summon Shapeshifter_Large_Character_BP_TameSTA_C. Log in as admin first (enablecheats <AdminPassword>); if your tool already runs with admin context, drop the leading "cheat".
How do I spawn a VR Ferox Creature at an exact level and position?
Run admincheat SpawnDino "Blueprint'/Game/Genesis2/Missions/ModularMission/Gauntlet2/STA/Endless/Tames/Shapeshifter_Large_Character_BP_TameSTA.Shapeshifter_Large_Character_BP_TameSTA'" 0 0 0 0. SpawnDino takes the full blueprint path followed by spawn distance, Y offset, Z offset and level, so you can place the VR Ferox Creature precisely instead of dropping it on top of your character.
