ASA: 'you don't own this' — DLC maps, creatures and items (Astraeos, Bob's Tall Tales, premium mods)

A message pops up when you join our Astraeos map.
You cannot tame an Oasisaur, a Cosmo or an Armadoggo.
You cannot learn or use the Shipyard, or build a Trireme.
A premium mod you bought shows as unpurchased.

Some content in ARK: Survival Ascended depends on what your own account owns, not on the server.

Astraeos is a paid DLC expansion map — the ARK Wiki calls it a "paid, official, and non-canonical DLC expansion map" — and it is one of our ASA maps. Since patch 61.17 the game "pops up a message if you join an Astraeos server when you don't have the DLC installed".
Oasisaur, Cosmo and Armadoggo "can be tamed by owning either Bob's Tall Tales or Astraeos" (patch 83.0).
The Shipyard and the Trireme: Astraeos owners can learn and use the Shipyard, and "the Trireme can be built by Astraeos owners".
A bug, fixed: patch 93.15 fixed an issue that kept players who own the required DLC from taming a Cosmo.
Premium mods are bought per account. A premium mod that suddenly shows as unpurchased is an open report on the official bug tracker (ASAIR-413), with no fix announced.

Check first: what does the map or the creature need? The ARK Wiki's Astraeos page lists the ownership rules above.
If you own Bob's Tall Tales or Astraeos and still cannot tame a Cosmo, update your game: patch 93.15 fixed exactly that for DLC owners.
If a premium mod you bought shows as unpurchased, check the purchase again in the in-game mod list. It is a known open report; there is no official fix yet.

How long to wait: an update you have not installed yet is the only thing worth waiting for; ownership itself does not change by waiting.

An admin cannot change or grant what your account owns: DLC and premium mods belong to each player's own account. Ask an admin only if you are sure you own the content, your game is up to date, and the problem appears on our maps alone.

Tell an admin the map, the time (the clock in your profile menu shows the server's time), your character's name, what you carried or had uploaded, and the exact message on the screen. For a transfer: both maps and both times. Report the same day — the backups reach back only about two days. Contact admin is in your profile menu; the Guides page has a question box.

Check a map's DLC requirement on the ARK Wiki before you travel there with your tames.
