Frequently Asked Questions

What does the Forest Coloring do in ARK: Survival Ascended?

A dye that applies a forest green color to armor and structures; spawnable via its GFI code on any map.

Is the Forest Coloring a DLC item or part of the base game?

The Forest Coloring is part of the base ARK: Survival Ascended game, so no DLC or map pack is required to spawn or craft it.

What's the difference between the Forest Coloring GFI code and its blueprint path?

The GFI code PrimalItemDye_Forest is a short name for quick spawning; the blueprint path "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Items/PrimalItemDye_Forest.PrimalItemDye_Forest'" is the full engine reference used by GiveItem and spawn tools. Both point at the same Forest Coloring.

How do I enable admin commands to spawn the Forest Coloring?

In single-player, cheats are on by default. On a dedicated or hosted server, log in as admin first with enablecheats <AdminPassword>, then run the Forest Coloring spawn command. Without admin access the console rejects it.

Does the Forest Coloring spawn command work in single-player and multiplayer?

When was the Forest Coloring data last updated?

The Forest Coloring entry was last verified on GameServersCodex on June 28, 2026. We track the live ARK: ASA build, so the IDs and commands here reflect the current patch.

Is the Forest Coloring spawn code on GameServersCodex accurate?

Yes. The Forest Coloring's class name, GFI code, item ID, and blueprint path are reproduced exactly from the live game data and re-checked each patch, so you can copy them straight into your console.

How do I give the Forest Coloring to another player?

Look at the player and run cheat GiveItemToPlayer <PlayerID> 359 1 0 0, or stand near them and use cheat GiveItemNum 359 1 0 0 after selecting them in your admin tools. It's the quick way to hand out the Forest Coloring during events and giveaways.

Why isn't my Forest Coloring spawn command working?

Check three things: admin access is enabled (enablecheats on servers), the code is typed exactly (PrimalItemDye_Forest), and all three trailing numbers are present. Copying cheat gfi PrimalItemDye_Forest 1 0 0 directly from this page avoids the most common mistakes.

What is the Forest Coloring used for?

Forest Coloring is a dye item used to customize the appearance of armor, tools, and buildable structures. Once applied, it grants a forest green hue to the targeted object.

How do I give myself the Forest Coloring with a cheat command?

Open the admin console and run cheat gfi PrimalItemDye_Forest 1 0 0. That gives you one Forest Coloring instantly. The three numbers after the code are quantity, quality, and blueprint flag. Raise the first to spawn a stack, or set the last to 1 to receive it as a blueprint instead of a finished item. Verified against the current ARK: ASA build as of June 28, 2026.

What is the blueprint path for the Forest Coloring?

The full blueprint path is "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Items/PrimalItemDye_Forest.PrimalItemDye_Forest'". Paste it into GiveItem to spawn the exact item: cheat GiveItem "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Items/PrimalItemDye_Forest.PrimalItemDye_Forest'" 1 0 0. Copy it exactly, because the path is case sensitive and must keep its wrapping quotes.

What's the difference between GFI and GiveItemNum for the Forest Coloring?

Both spawn the Forest Coloring. gfi PrimalItemDye_Forest matches the item by name and is quickest to type; GiveItemNum 359 uses the numeric ID and is precise for scripting. Same result, different lookup.

Can I spawn the Forest Coloring over RCON or on a dedicated server?

Yes. Send the same command through RCON or your control-panel console: cheat gfi PrimalItemDye_Forest 1 0 0. If your tool already runs with admin context, drop the leading "cheat". It works the same on hosted, self-hosted, and RCON setups.

How do I spawn a higher-quality Forest Coloring?

The second number is quality, where 0 is primitive and higher values roll toward ascendant. cheat gfi PrimalItemDye_Forest 1 100 0 attempts a top tier Forest Coloring. Quality only affects items that support tiers; on others it's ignored.

What do the numbers in the Forest Coloring spawn command mean?

In cheat gfi PrimalItemDye_Forest 1 0 0, the code identifies the Forest Coloring, then the three numbers are quantity, quality, and blueprint flag (0 = item, 1 = blueprint). So it spawns one standard Forest Coloring.

How do I spawn the Forest Coloring as a blueprint instead of a finished item?

Set the final argument to 1: cheat gfi PrimalItemDye_Forest 1 0 1. The last number is the blueprint flag, where 0 gives the crafted item and 1 gives its blueprint (for craftable items; on items with no blueprint the flag is simply ignored).
