Ark stuck downloading mods

Ok so, Today I decided to install ark again, And play on a modded server.. It downloaded the first 2 mods, then after its stuck on Preparing to download mod.. It says in the right corner "installing 1 mods (Ark eternal Live) Tried multiple fixes already they all dont work. Fixes I tried: Unsub from the mod, Restart PC, Cleared mod folder. For the past 2 hours, ARK has been validating, then installing, then repeating. I've restarted steam and unsubscribed from all my mods and it's still doing it. Not sure if this is useful, but I also did just buy the Season pass. I'm going to reboot my PC, but I'd appreciate some help! Edit: I resolved the issue. To download mods or maps, simply go to ARK's Steam Workshop page and click "Subscribe" on the item you'd like to get. Then in-game while playing ARK, you'll automatically see the name of that map or mod appear in the "Host / Local Play" menu, potentially after a .

Mods status bar only appears in Big Picture Mode - For some reason, Steam changed the default behavior, so in the latest versions mod updates will download silently in the background, so you can no longer track their progress. If this scenario is applicable, you can verify if the mods are actually downloading by switching to Big Picture Mode. After update (never seen this before) it just tries to download mod which I cannot find in any config files anywhere also it doesn't try to download the mods in the config files. The config files and arkmanager has not been altered for a long time and I have quadruplechecked the config files just to be sure. When I try to join the ARK server I play on, it gets stuck downloading the mods. Tried setting steam to download while in game, tried deleting mod files, reinstalled the game. I can join other servers without mods fine. Client and server are both updated. All discussions on this topic are pretty old and don't have any solutions. Any ideas?

Inside the Settings menu, select Downloads from the vertical menu on the right. Then, move over to the right-hand pane and change the Download Region to the appropriate Country using the drop-down menu below. Click Ok to save the changes, then attempt to download the mods once again at the next application startup. Setting the right download region. game stuck on verifiying, tried downloading 2 times, uninstalled all dlcs, maybe its the mods? 98mb/s download, Ark still takes 4 hours lol.
