About

The Alpha Megalodon Fin is a resource item obtained by killing an Alpha Megalodon in the ocean. It serves as a crafting ingredient in various endgame recipes and is a common requirement for advanced gear and structures.

Spawn it directly into your inventory using its GFI code. Since it does not have a numeric item ID, you must use the GFI spawn method rather than GiveItem. The fin does not stack, so each one occupies a separate inventory slot.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I spawn multiple Alpha Megalodon Fin at once?
Change the quantity argument, the first number after the code. For example cheat gfi PrimalItemResource_ApexDrop_AlphaMegalodon 25 0 0 spawns 25 of the Alpha Megalodon Fin. Stacks respect the item's maximum stack size.
What's the difference between the Alpha Megalodon Fin GFI code and its blueprint path?

Both point at the same Alpha Megalodon Fin.
