#

Use WorkshopDownloadConfig.json

#

And then in commands.dat change
Map arid

#

If that does not work then send your Use WorkshopDownloadConfig.json and server log

#

map arid

#

Not the numbers

wintry ruin May 12, 2023, 8:02 AM

#

did that work?

wintry ruin May 12, 2023, 8:19 AM

#

is the map folder in your server folder?

#

Unturned Server\Servers\YOURSERVER\Maps so its in here?

#

and in ur commands.dat file it is "Map Arid"?

#

and ur subscribed to the map on workshop yes?

#

is the map file anywhere else?

#

where else is it?

#

it should be in 3 locations

#

and this is in ur actual server directory?

#

not the /untunred server one

#

Unturned Server\Servers\servername

#

but there?

#

in this spot

#

it shouldnt be in bundles

#

you shouldnt see anything in content either

#

yea try that

limber mirage May 12, 2023, 8:43 AM

#

You say you used WorkshopDownloadConfig.json so did you? And if you did send it so we can see if you did it correctly

#

Ye that. Add a space before and after the numbers so [ 00000000 ]

#

Might help

#

Ye try that

#

Send the full server log

limber mirage May 12, 2023, 9:40 AM

#

It is odd because it downloads the map

#

You didn't add any files manually did you?

#

If you added arid by had to the files like other than WorkshopDownloadConfig.json or Commands.dat delete them

limber mirage May 12, 2023, 9:59 AM

#

It should be kn the WorkshopDownloadConfig.json so the id in there and in Commands.dat the map arid

#

Other than that no

wintry ruin May 12, 2023, 10:50 AM

#

Map Arid

limber mirage May 12, 2023, 9:21 PM

#

Nau

#

Because the server does already download the files looking at the logs. Why is it not found when setting the map tho is a diffrent matter

#

Maybe just start from the begining and the to server stuff again

@wintry ruin Have you tried a full uninstall/ reinstall of all game and server mods yet? If not unsubscribe from all workshop items, then delete the files on your server and game and launch with nothing, then relaunch after re adding them to the workshop download file. If that doesn’t work then try to start fresh with a new server

#

All the folders in the workshop folder

high kite May 13, 2023, 5:01 AM

#

Take a look in content I think? It’s been a while so might be worth looking it up

#

Take a ss of your server directory, not at my pc so I can’t check rn

#

This is what I found online for the game, but for the server files I’ll need to see your files to remember “Navigate to the steam workshop folder for unturned

This is typically located at C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\304930, but can change depending on where you installed Steam.
Now that you've navigated to the folder, you can delete the folders inside of it”

#

Go into workshop

#

Yes those are the ones

#

#

Click that, then go Into content, then remove all the folders, should be a bunch of numbers for the folder names

#

Ok anything in maps or level?

#

Try moving pei to your desktop and starting the server, see if it reinstalls it automatically or not. If that doesn’t work you’ll need to fresh install the server after copying your server files to the desktop as a back up

#

No, just make a back up of your current files in case you want to use that server again, but start from scratch and double check everything your doing with the official documentation, do you have a link to the docs?

#

Wait

#

What’s in the server folder?

#

Yee

#

Nvm that’s normal

#

Can you post logs?

#

Heading out now I’ll try to help latter if no one else does

high kite May 13, 2023, 5:50 AM

#

Is 2683620106 in your workshop download config?

wintry ruin May 13, 2023, 11:23 AM

#

What port are you using if I can ask? @wintry ruin

#

Okay, steam/logs/workshop_log.txt

#

Do you have a workshop log?

#

See if you have that

limber mirage May 14, 2023, 1:26 PM

#

In this time you have spend on trying to get this to work you would have created 1000 servers

#

And anything important you can just backup if you have player data or some data you want to keep

#

I am not saying it will fix it but at least we can make sure it is not about that

grave sail May 14, 2023, 11:41 PM

#

Stop your server, delete the "Workshop" folder and start it back up again

#

Don't delete the folders inside, just delete the "Workshop" one itself so it regenerates itself

grave sail May 15, 2023, 6:16 AM

#

uhmm I only been using pterodactyl panels for unturned servers, not sure if it also applies on windows version

#

but give it a try, it is that folder that you delete

grave sail May 15, 2023, 9:37 AM

#

perhaps 😭

limber mirage May 15, 2023, 9:54 AM

#

Just delete everything and do what you did before

high kite May 16, 2023, 7:11 PM

#

What tutorial did you follow?

high kite May 17, 2023, 7:17 PM

#

Setting up your server, did you follow a tutorial or the official docs?

high kite May 17, 2023, 10:37 PM

#

Follow official docs then I can find you the link if you need but it should be around somewhere

open tusk May 18, 2023, 3:34 PM

#

You also need to port forward it

VPNs are a option, yes

glossy notch May 21, 2023, 7:24 AM

#

VPNs are (still) a option, yes

mystic python May 23, 2023, 1:16 AM

#

There is a website that will do it.

#

I can send it in a sec

glossy notch May 23, 2023, 2:21 PM

#

mystic python There is a website that will do it.

There is not

#

There are tunneling services, walkthroughs or software solutions in some cases but I have yet to see a random website that lets you port forward

#

That’d be scary

I have used one before but Idk how safe it was I was not too worried as it was just me and some firends.

#

I can try to find it in a sec I just have to remember where I found it.

#

I dont think It was port forwarding but It allowed your friends to join you.

#

This was the Video I used back in the day.

In this guide we show how to create a public Unturned server using http://playit.gg. Playit is used to create a tunnel that allows anyone to connect to your locally running Unturned server.

Steps:

Browse local files for dedicated server

▶ Play video

#

No idea if it is still relevant/working.

#

http://playit.gg

#

And there was the sight it is linked in the video aswell.

#

I believe so.

#

I have not used it in a long time.

glossy notch May 24, 2023, 2:53 AM

#

mystic python http://playit.gg

That is a tunneling service

#

I would still be very curious for you to link a site that can port forward

#

Yes, tunneling services are still a option but they won’t help you change to a curated map

mystic python May 24, 2023, 3:05 AM

#

glossy notch I would still be very curious for you to link a site that can port forward

I just made a mistake on what it was called.

#

As I stated previously.

glossy notch May 24, 2023, 3:05 AM

#

Oh didn’t notice mb

#

But yeah there is a pretty important difference

mystic python May 24, 2023, 12:31 PM

#

Tunneling should work for players to join.

glossy notch May 24, 2023, 1:23 PM

#

True, not for using Arid tho

glossy notch May 26, 2023, 2:04 PM

#

Why would you need to make a new one?

#

Same way you would use any other workshop map

glossy notch May 26, 2023, 5:58 PM

#

And why is that?

#

I mean yeah you could just make a new one, not hard plus you can port saves and such

woeful arrow May 26, 2023, 5:59 PM

#

you'd just delete all the files

glossy notch May 26, 2023, 5:59 PM

#

Still I don’t see why you would do that

woeful arrow May 26, 2023, 5:59 PM

#

sometimes it is just easier to start from scratch

glossy notch May 26, 2023, 6:03 PM

#

True, still curious as to what is broken or why he’d do that

zenith beacon May 27, 2023, 9:40 AM

#

what going on here?

zenith beacon Jun 2, 2023, 12:05 PM

#

So you still can't use arid as your server map?

zenith beacon Jun 2, 2023, 3:25 PM

#

huh
