Adobe Windowframe — Detailed Guide
A wall with a window opening
The Adobe Windowframe is a building piece from Scorched Earth in ARK: Survival Evolved and ARK: Survival Ascended. The game's description is short: "An adobe wall, with a hole for a window." A window can be set into that hole; opened, it gives a view outside, and closed, it blocks projectiles.
Placement and support
The frame can stand on any foundation, fence foundation or ceiling, the Thatch Roof excepted, or on top of another wall. Structures built above it can reach out by up to 2 ceilings along the x and y axes, and by 1 ceiling diagonally when the frame sits directly over a foundation. If the frame is destroyed, every piece that relies on it for support falls with it, and a demolish refunds nothing for those extra pieces.
No loss of insulation
An open window, a closed one or an empty frame: none of them lowers the insulation of a house.
Engram and recipe
The engram unlocks at level 20 for 8 engram points. One frame takes 3 seconds to craft and gives 3.5 XP from:
- 36
Clay - 15
Wood or 
Fungal Wood - 9
Thatch - 8
Fiber
A frame weighs 4 and they stack to 100, so a full stack weighs 400. 50 crate types can contain one, for example Genesis Blue and Genesis Purple on Genesis Part 2. Besides Scorched Earth, the ARK Wiki lists the windowframe on Valguero, Ragnarok, Lost Island, Genesis: Part 2, Fjordur and Crystal Isles.
