About

The VR Shadowmane is a Fantasy-type creature tied to the Genesis DLC, representing the virtual-reality simulation variant of the Shadowmane (internally tagged as 'Lionfish Lion'). It is distinct from the standard Shadowmane and exists specifically within the Genesis VR environment context.

Admins working with Genesis maps may encounter this entity when managing spawns, reviewing server logs, or troubleshooting creature-related issues inside VR mission zones. Using the entity ID LionfishLion_Character_BP_TameSTA_C is the reliable way to target this specific variant rather than the base Shadowmane.

Because it is a tame-state variant (noted by the TameSTA segment in the entity ID), its behavior and spawn conditions may differ from wild Shadowmane entries. Keep this distinction in mind when scripting spawn commands or configuring creature population settings on Genesis servers.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I spawn a wild VR Shadowmane Creature?
Run cheat Summon LionfishLion_Character_BP_TameSTA_C in the admin console. Summon spawns a wild, untamed VR Shadowmane Creature at your location. Use GMSummon instead if you want it pre-tamed.

The VR Shadowmane Creature blueprint path is "Blueprint'/Game/Genesis2/Missions/ModularMission/Gauntlet2/STA/Endless/Tames/LionfishLion_Character_BP_TameSTA.LionfishLion_Character_BP_TameSTA'". Keep the wrapping quotes: SpawnDino and the other path-based admin commands need them to read the path as one argument. Verified against the current ARK: ASA build as of June 28, 2026.
What is the creature ID for the VR Shadowmane Creature?
The creature ID for the VR Shadowmane Creature is LionfishLion_Character_BP_TameSTA_C. This is the blueprint class the game uses to identify it, and it's what admin summon commands take.

Run admincheat SpawnDino "Blueprint'/Game/Genesis2/Missions/ModularMission/Gauntlet2/STA/Endless/Tames/LionfishLion_Character_BP_TameSTA.LionfishLion_Character_BP_TameSTA'" 0 0 0 0.

Is the VR Shadowmane Creature a DLC creature or part of the base game?
