Frequently Asked Questions

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

The Red 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 GFI and GiveItemNum for the Red Coloring?

Both spawn the Red Coloring. gfi PrimalItemDye_Red matches the item by name and is quickest to type; GiveItemNum 58 uses the numeric ID and is precise for scripting. Same result, different lookup.

How do I spawn multiple Red Coloring at once?

Change the quantity argument, the first number after the code. For example cheat gfi PrimalItemDye_Red 25 0 0 spawns 25 of the Red Coloring. Stacks respect the item's maximum stack size.

What is the Red Coloring used for?

Red Coloring is a dye consumable that applies red pigment to paintable structures, armor, and tamed creatures. Admins use it to quickly customize server aesthetics or hand out to players building bases.

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

Open the admin console and run cheat gfi PrimalItemDye_Red 1 0 0. That gives you one Red 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.

How do I give the Red Coloring to another player?

Look at the player and run cheat GiveItemToPlayer <PlayerID> 58 1 0 0, or stand near them and use cheat GiveItemNum 58 1 0 0 after selecting them in your admin tools. It's the quick way to hand out the Red Coloring during events and giveaways.

How do I enable admin commands to spawn the Red 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 Red Coloring spawn command. Without admin access the console rejects it.

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

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

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

Yes. Send the same command through RCON or your control-panel console: cheat gfi PrimalItemDye_Red 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.

Where can I copy the Red Coloring spawn command?

Use the copy buttons in the Spawn Commands and Blueprint Path sections near the top of this page. Each copies the full Red Coloring command to your clipboard in one click, ready to paste into the console.

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

A red dye item used to color structures, equipment, and dinos; spawnable via its numeric item ID or GFI code.

Can I get the Red Coloring without spawning it?

Yes. The Red Coloring can also be obtained through normal ARK: Survival Ascended progression. Admins usually spawn it for speed when testing, running events, or outfitting players, which is what the commands on this page are for.

How do I open the console to spawn the Red Coloring?

On PC, press Tab to open the admin console, paste the command, and press Enter. On Xbox and PlayStation, open the pause menu and use the on-screen command bar. Then drop in the Red Coloring spawn code from this page.

Is the Red Coloring blueprint path case-sensitive?

Yes. "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Items/PrimalItemDye_Red.PrimalItemDye_Red'" must be typed exactly, including capitalization and the wrapping quotes. Copy it from this page to avoid a typo that returns an empty spawn.

What is the Red Coloring class used for in mods or spawn tools?

Spawn managers, loot-table editors, and RCON macros reference the Red Coloring by its class PrimalItemDye_Red_C or GFI PrimalItemDye_Red. Both uniquely identify it in ARK: Survival Ascended.

What is the blueprint path for the Red Coloring?

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

How do I add the Red Coloring to a starter kit or loadout?

Include cheat gfi PrimalItemDye_Red 1 0 0 in your server's kit or spawn script, and set the quantity argument to hand out multiples. Pair it with other item commands from the Codex to build a full loadout.

How do I spawn a higher-quality Red Coloring?

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

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

Set the final argument to 1: cheat gfi PrimalItemDye_Red 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).

Which game is the Red Coloring from?

The Red Coloring is from ARK: Survival Ascended. Every ID, code, and command on this page is specific to ARK: Survival Ascended and its current live build.

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

Yes, the command is identical in both. Single-player has cheats enabled by default; multiplayer just requires an admin login first. The Red Coloring then spawns the same way.

What's the Red Coloring GFI short code?

The GFI code for the Red Coloring is PrimalItemDye_Red. GFI matches the item by its short blueprint name, so cheat gfi PrimalItemDye_Red 1 0 0 is the fastest way to spawn it without typing the full blueprint path.

What's the Red Coloring class name?

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

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

Yes. The Red 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.

What's the numeric item ID of the Red Coloring?

The numeric item ID for the Red Coloring is 58. Use it with GiveItemNum, cheat GiveItemNum 58 1 0 0, to spawn by ID instead of by GFI name.

How current is the Red Coloring spawn info?

The Red 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.

Why isn't my Red Coloring spawn command working?

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