Seeing the same crash here, not running in a VM in my case though.

I meant to update this before. The issue is the same as #21 where you need to delete the file "/ShooterGame/Binaries/Win64/steamclient64.dll". But you will find that every time you run "Install/Update Base Server" that file will reappear and cause the problem. So you need to run "Install/Update Base Server" at least once, and wait for it to say it completed. Then delete the file, then comment out line 334 in "ark_instance_manager.sh". Rerun that script and run "Install/Update Base Server" again. Then you should be good to go. If you want to update the server later on, you will need to uncomment that line so it can update.
