Hello, i ha ve a question about server hosting for The Isle Legacy, the AI ​​rate does not change? How can I improve the spawn of AIs for my players? Once I pass the 100 connected players, it starts to lag a little more and the AIs appear much less.
thx <3

[versed basin]

Hello everyone, I built a small server to play with two or three friends. But the map is too big and feels lonely. Is there any way to add more AI animals or dinosaurs?

[versed basin]

An Evrima server.

[versed basin]

Thank you!

[buoyant nexus]

ok

[distant geyser]

how do i join a unoffical server

[reef plume]

You can join my server if you want!

[distant geyser]

How

[merry urchin]

If you’re on evrima version, in the right panel you select unofficial and click refresh to see and show all the servers

[reef plume]

https://discord.gg/pG6xBWSA

I tried sending you a DM but it didn't go through

[distant geyser]

Oh you have to add me

[distant geyser]

Ok i will try that thanks

[reef plume]

I added ya 🙂

[distant geyser]

Ok

[floral plover]

I'm looking to host an evrima server does anyone know any good walk through videos I can watch to learn how to do so?

[golden flare]

check pins in this channel

[floral plover]

i already have

[short basin]

hey guys n gals I seem to keep getting these red errors 😦

can some one help me fix them when they have a spare second please

[uncut notch]

Hey guys how do you find rules for unofficial servers?

And what are tree grows

Free

How do I get my free grow?

[solar snow]

You'll probably find all that on their discord server, if they have one

[uncut notch]

Oh how do I find there discord

[solar snow]

You can try searching online or in #unofficial-isle-communities

You might also be able to ask someone in game

[uncut notch]

Can link me islander discord

[short basin]

okay I fixed the red errors, silly me had my Engine.ini code written out wrong lol

next question is Has anyone found a way in the server_start.bat to code in auto restarts say like every 4hrs or so? and posted it?

[tight sapphire]

Having same reds, can you send me the Engine.ini text so I can verify mine

[short basin]

the red box was the problem

that's what it used to be

@tight sapphire you don't need [EpicOnlineServices] written in twice

[tight sapphire]

Ahh, let me fix that now, and I'll let you know how it turns out

[tight sapphire]

Anybody know how to address this?

[short basin]

common errors, nothing to worry about

I get the same too mate

[tight sapphire]

what about this one?

[short basin]

yep I get that one too, not sure what it is though. but I'm still able to connect to the server

[tight sapphire]

roger. does the host have to be on a separate rig or can you host and game on the same rig?

[short basin]

same rig, I can. I had a friend from Canada and a friend from Texas both with me on the server at the same time

[tight sapphire]

i cant get it to populate on when i launch The isle. ive checked and cant get it to show.

[short basin]

hmmmm, check that you port forward the correct ports in your router?

[tight sapphire]

i believe so, but how can i be sure that they are port forwarding properly?

[short basin]

https://portchecker.co/

you should split them up into TCP for 7777-7778, 27015-27017 and UDP for for 7777-7778, 27015-27017

just name them The Isle 3 and The Isle 4 for the UDP ports

oh btw just a security heads up, you should never show your ext public IP address anywhere

[tight sapphire]

i just changed it

so this is what i put in, look right?

[short basin]

ummm I guess so, idk your router and most likely have never used it's GUI so it's hard for me to say yes or no

[tight sapphire]

okay, its just a basic arris router. i just dont understand the local port portion. or if it something that should be left blank

[short basin]

yeah I've never come across it here in Australia, and my router is Asus which looks totally different to that

@tight sapphire you may need to google your router and model for it's manual. it should explain everything there

[tight sapphire]

ill try that

[short basin]

lol yeah, my best moto and advice on port forwarding for people is grab their router's manual and RTFM

[tight sapphire]

like that?

[short basin]

okay now try it. also delete the picture above where it's shows your ext IP

[tight sapphire]

Yeah i surrendered that ip, gave me a new one. real quick. in the .bat file it is the public ip address that goes there not the PC's ip address correct

[tight sapphire]

i think it might be my internet provider that is blocking ports from being opened. ill give them a call tomorrow

[short basin]

yeah I had that same problem with mine. they had me on NAT Type D. after I called them they switched me to NAT Type B

[tight sapphire]

yeah, ill start with that. im sure they can help me set everything up for hosting. ill let you know it goes. thanks for all the help brother

[ocean basin]

Any decent Host for Evrima servers ?

[merry urchin]

Any fix for black screen when hosting?

[buoyant nexus]

Is there any way to enable humans on private servers?

[golden flare]

[/Script/TheIsle.TIGameSession]
bEnableHumans=true

[short basin]

which .ini does that go in? Game or Engine?

nvm lol I found it. I'm a dope 😄

[short basin]

have a question... why does my Rcon ip say 0.0.0.0 where or how do I define the IP address for Rcon?

[golden flare]

That should be fine, you just define the port and password for rcon

[short basin]

can I denfine the IP in the game.ini

[golden flare]

The ip, no, just the port and password. Its normal that it says 0.0.0.0

[short basin]

👌

[visual heart]

Hello all, I am new to all this server hosting stuffs. I got all my ports forwarded and they are confirmed open. having trouble getting my server to show up in the list. I am getting this string of error in the cmd.

I'm running through Steam if that makes any bit of a difference on troubleshooting.

[buoyant nexus]

https://gyazo.com/36c3c14a88356ac7ca0f3a5507f752fc any help my server always says ping 444 and i can only join it if i search for it it does not show on list at all

and sometimes it shows the ping like this https://gyazo.com/487fa10aadce43cbe994f2ad0459ffa6

[golden flare]

#server-hosting message

[visual heart]

I can't seem to get my server to show up. I don't think it's opening properly or something else is messed up. Idk if I possibly have an incorrect .ini or maybe I'm missing config files.

[golden flare]

I guess you got humans working 😁

[buoyant nexus]

yes awesome thanks man

[buoyant nexus]

same problem you have to search for it mine also does not show only when i search for it

[golden flare]

Its likely due to ICMP port

[visual heart]

I have but it isn't showing up. I was looking in the cmd though it's giving some red string of code "[2023.01.16-18.02.51:815][ 6]LogNet: Error: UEngine::BroadcastNetworkFailure: FailureType = NetDriverListenFailure, ErrorString = , Driver = GameNetDriver EOSNetDriver_2147480721"

And one other one

[2023.01.16-18.05.20:237][ 8]LogNet: Error: LoadMap: failed to Listen(/Game/TheIsle/Maps/Game/Isla_Spiro/Isla_Spiro?listen)

[golden flare]

Errors are quite common

[visual heart]

icmp port?

[buoyant nexus]

ICMP?

[golden flare]

Yes that needs to be open sadly

[visual heart]

What ports are those? I've got ports open if I missed them it's nothing to go and open them.

[golden flare]

It may vary from router to router, for me i had to go to port forwarding->custom port and set 1 as value and forward it to the gameserver

[buoyant nexus]

oof i have port fowarded local ip enabled dmz and still have that issue

[golden flare]

Have you forwarded ICMP as explained above ?

[visual heart]

So just set 1 as a port?

To open

[golden flare]

Make sure its a custom port then yes

[buoyant nexus]

no i have no awereness about ICMP il look into it

[visual heart]

I couldn't find anything for that in my router.

I didn't know ICMP had ports you could forward.

[golden flare]

Its pretty stupid actually that you have to open it...

Idk why you guys are opening a server, but if its just to mess around you can join my discord and get admin, link in the bio

[buoyant nexus]

its a for mess around and i have a small community For South African players all other servers iss to high for us to enjoy

[merry urchin]

Doesn’t look like your engine.ini is present

[visual heart]

You by chance have a copy I could modify to make work with my server?

[merry urchin]

Sure

[visual heart]

You can feel free to dm me if you like

[merry urchin]

Done 😉

[merry urchin]

Guys question for Evrima dedicated servers what is the delay between save and if we can manage it ?

[visual heart]

Anybody know how to add another admin to the server? Do I need to use a comma or anything? Or just space and paste it?

[short basin]

just do this mate 😉

[/Script/TheIsle.TIGameStateBase]
AdminsSteamIDs=admin1 steam 64
AdminsSteamIDs=admin2 steam 64
AdminsSteamIDs=admin3 steam 64
AdminsSteamIDs=admin4steam 64
AdminsSteamIDs=admin5 steam 64

and so forth

[visual heart]

Thank you. Also, is there a way to increase AI spawn?

Also I'd like to mention how much appreciate how helpful everyone has been. You guys have been a godsend.

[sour basalt]

Brothers, why my installation did not generate a file named "'Engine. ini'".

[short basin]

I created it from scratch mate just like the game.ini or you can ask someone here for it

all engine.ini files are the same

🤣

[short basin]

only for a legacy server mate

[visual heart]

Alright, I appreciate the information. Thank you.

[short basin]

👍

[inland silo]

Can someone help me solve the bug of not finding servers?

[solar snow]

What version of the game are you on?

[inland silo]

1.8.1

[solar snow]

So legacy, then. Meet me in #🔧-legacy-troubleshooting-🔧

[sour basalt]

Which brother has relevant instructions on the configuration of "the isle" parameter, such as closing the season, closing the day and night, etc

[sour basalt]

Can I add friends? I have something to ask you.

[short basin]

what do you need to ask?

[sour basalt]

About the map thenyaw island and v3

[short basin]

I don't do that mate, I do Evrima so Spiro

[sour basalt]

ok, Thank you anyway.

[short basin]

[gusty fjord]

Hello, RCON packets are limited to something like 1024 (server side). So we cant have full transmission at a point.

[gusty fjord]

Cause im using playerlist command, but there are a point where I dont receive the end of the messages, like I just have 41 IDs, and 1 ID that is cut, and no names and stuff

So I make that I can receive more bytes, but it changes nothing, so I guess that the problem come from the server

I was using socket

so I use it with python

oh, ok

i cant check for the moment, because there are less than 42 players currently :/

I dont know, it was between than 1024 and 2048

[merry urchin]

Yeah you can need to edit game.ini file

[chrome crypt]

Is there a specific command or line of text that I have to insert? 🙂

[merry urchin]

Sure I’ll tell you in 5min okay ?

[chrome crypt]

No Stress my friend, thank you! 🙂

[merry urchin]

Just need to add those lines in your Game.ini file, if the section already existe just add the 2nd line in the section. 😉

Ive gotten 60+ with no problem, shouldnt be any limitations on the server side

[fierce garden]

Is there a way to set a password on an Evrima server? Or is that not a thing yet.

[short basin]

so your game.ini resets back to default when you start your game?

[short basin]

did you create your own .ini?

[loud cedar]

Can someone help me

[merry urchin]

What’s going on ?

[loud cedar]

Oh i fixed the problem

[merry urchin]

Great 👍🏻😊

[merry urchin]

How does one host a server on evirma - and does it just stay up all the time?

[merry urchin]

? I don’t get it 🤣 well a server is a computer by the way you can use your own computer and turn it to a server… but if players wanna play whenever they want the server must stay up all time yes, if you turn off the computer/server no one won’t be able to connect to the server 🙂

[merry urchin]

Oh alr then

[leaden lava]

does someone knows an easy way to make a server on the isle? but evrima plz if u do plz ping me

[opal sky]

at this time, how will evirma get player values?
because in legacy version can get value from .json

[bronze sky]

the devs dont want you to Access this

Also server port shows not open after port forwarding, allowing ports through windows firewall, and having the server started

[tropic wasp]

Is anyone else having issues with player name / steam ID filtering only working sometimes? I'm having annoying problems where pasting the person's name / ID into the filter, just 'flickers' all the names, but doesn't filter and leaves the entire player list in the admin menu there.
Please reply/@ tag me so I know to come back and check. Thanks

[lunar sage]

Same here.

[gaunt geyser]

Hello, i have a question. how do you switch a server from legacy to evrima. (my sever provider is PingPerfect) <@&933486433342222376>

[merry urchin]

I keep getting this error. I'm at "You are now done and ready to run a server!
Double click the Server_Start.bat file to start up the server.
Troubleshoot section is down below."

<@&933486433342222376>

[gaunt geyser]

Sorry, but my friend clicked a button that was there so send it to EVRIMA from legacy and it just may have done something odd, we are looking for the server but we can't seem to find it.

[sturdy zephyr]

does anyone know how to set up an evrima sever? I've got most everything done, but the only thing appearing in the WindowsServer Folder is GameUserSettings

[waxen zinc]

im trying to start a legacy server and im getting confused. can anyone help?

[muted cairn]

Where is the problem?

[waxen zinc]

everywhere. ive been trying for weeks, im not good with comptuer tech

[muted cairn]

Use mygameplatform.com is a free community website for gameservers

[waxen zinc]

oh cool thank you!!

[muted cairn]

Or else there are many instructions on how to set up a legacy server on the net. 🙂

[waxen zinc]

ya most of them ive seen skip way to many steps

[humble hearth]

my server is running on pingperfect but i cant join

how do i fix it

[muted cairn]

Have you written to Ping Perfect support?

[sour basalt]

what different pingperfect server install and pc server?

[humble hearth]

no

[humble hearth]

what?

[sour basalt]

Is there any difference between the installation of pingeffect server and that of personal PC

[humble hearth]

what do you mean

[sour basalt]

It can also be installed on your own computer. What's the difference between it and pingeffect。

[humble hearth]

what do you mean whats the difference

[muted cairn]

If you create the server yourself, you have to set up everything yourself, from installing the server and so on, and if you turn off the PC, the server is down. But if you get a server from hosters like Pingperfect and co (for a fee) everything is taken off your hands and the server runs as long as the runtime you have paid for.

[sour basalt]

But on my side, there is no server vendor available. Installing the server yourself becomes a hassle.

[muted cairn]

What is the problem you are failing with?

[sour basalt]

I have installed the evame version, but I want to try the legacy version. Don't know how to install

[muted cairn]

You must use the correct steamcmd id

[sour basalt]

412680，this one？

[muted cairn]

Yes

how do you change your dino in a server

like how do i get a full grown rex

i changed the thing to acro in my player profile on the server but it didnt work

[sour basalt]

Very strange. Then I'll try again

[humble hearth]

@muted cairn

[muted cairn]

I have already done it yes

[humble hearth]

how do u do it

[humble hearth]

?

[sonic brook]

how can i open my server??

[muted cairn]

If you are playing on a sandbox server, you can simply wait for the timer on the "respawn" button to expire and then make your choice.

However, if you are playing on a progress server, you will need to have your dinosaur killed somehow.

[waxen zinc]

is there a certain port number i need to be using?

So I got my server working that I was struggling with earlier. My friends can join the server just fine but when I go to join it I get a connection error any fixes? I am hosting the server on the same computer I am trying to join on.

[tribal compass]

Hey I'm trying to launch my server and I can't figure out what I've done. The server seems to be launching but I can't figure out if I've named it in the right place.. I did it in the game.ini but do I have to to tell it to use the ini?

I did the port forward on my router for both UPD and TCP both port numbers (4 in total) did the windows firewall inbound.. do I need an outbound?

[hasty saffron]

you do need outbound and also you might have to port forward on your internet router too

[tribal compass]

Thanks. That's probably what it is. guide never said outboud. I'm pretty sure I portforwarded correctly cause I've done that before on my router

Ok so why don't my .ini's get created?

[hasty saffron]

So I got my server working that I was struggling with earlier. My friends can join the server just fine but when I go to join it I get a connection error any fixes? I am hosting the server on the same computer I am trying to join on.

[hasty saffron]

Can some one help me I cant find I fix anywhere.

[shrewd wind]

Mines the same, it created the user setting .ini but nothing else

[tribal compass]

I got it working. Apparently even if it's the correct IP .. it has to be static

but I get this now

[shrewd wind]

how did you get all the .ini files?

[tribal compass]

I copied them off our main server

[shrewd wind]

My server doesnt even show up lol

[shrewd wind]

can u send them to me? 🙂

[tribal compass]

I'll send you what I have but you'll need to change some stuff that I'm trying to figure out right now

[shrewd wind]

I might also have a porting issue but my IP is already set to static. Its comes up with BroadcastNetworkFailure

The other error is the LoadMap which Im guessing is because of the missing .ini files

[tribal compass]

yea I'm not sure.. if you get it to pop up in list thats good

[shrewd wind]

This is what I get

[tribal compass]

are you trying to load evrima?

[shrewd wind]

yeah

okay so I found all the .ini files for the actual game and moved them over to the server file, hasnt fixed either of the errors

actually found all these other errors smh

[tribal compass]

yea I get the same kinda thing

I have a friend who is going to send me the info later I'll relay it to you

[shrewd wind]

Alrighty cheers

[timid crown]

I need help hosting a server for evrima

So I got my server working that I was struggling with earlier. My friends can join the server just fine but when I go to join it I get a connection error any fixes? I am hosting the server on the same computer I am trying to join on.

[faint laurel]

Your router does not support hairpinning, so it doesn't resolve the local address, and instead reoslves the public which won't work.

You can either buy a router with hairpinning supported or host outside your netowork, but thats really about your only choices unless you want to fiddle with playing on a VPN

[golden flare]

if you only wanna play around with admin, you can join my server and get admin on there.

[fleet horizon]

what to do if you do not hear the sound in the admin panel?

[hasty saffron]

That would be nice what’s your server?

Also is your server Legacy or Evrima

[golden flare]

Link is in my bio, it's Evrima

[hasty saffron]

Ok Ty I will be on later today probably

[golden flare]

np

[cunning rose]

[pure prism]

Hello everyone!
I’ve read thread here with the same problem as mine, but unlike an previous comments, no one can see my server (neither I nor my mates).
So if someone know how to fix that, it would be wonderful… I've tried many things, but it’s still broken :’)

[acoustic coyote]

hello?

[final dove]

There is no issues on this image - this yellow text is normal and completely fine
I would assume you need to check your firewall 🙂

[main agate]

By chance have you made an egg for EVRIMA?

[golden flare]

I have

[scenic girder]

Anybody has an Idea why my Server is not shown up in Serverbrowser ?

[final dove]

Seems like you are hosting this on your own pc.
Have you opened ports (7777,7778,8888,10000) on your router, firewalls etc?

Also I'm not sure if you can host on the same machine you wanna play from

[main agate]

Is the queue port TCP or UDP protocol?

[final dove]

UDP i recall

[main agate]

How resource intensive is the dedicate server? What are the optimal specs to run it?

[final dove]

Depends if Evrima or Legacy, map, amount of players on it

[main agate]

What could I expect with an Evrima server holding 100 players on it?

[scenic girder]

I tested it on my own Machine and on my Server. I forwarded 7777,7778,27015-27017 like in the Hosting Guide by NoClipSize

[acoustic coyote]

i need help

[scenic girder]

@final dove Can you DM me ? That you can watch over my new Log and my Batch File.

[main agate]

@golden flare - Sorry, I was at work and couldn’t get to your message. I forgot.

[main agate]

What ICMP port needs to be opened for pings?

[lime moon]

to open the ICMP port, you have to open it from your router or from your hosting site, what I did, I just selected new port and then I put, 0.0.0.0/0 and choose ICMP and I didn't put anything in port.

[plucky pike]

Hi, I am wondering how I can create an evrima server. I have been trying for a while now but I can't seem to figure it out. I am looking to host a server for free but if that is not possible, I will get the money for it.

[oblique thorn]

I use for several weeks mygameplatform.com is free hosting community and have other games server is very relaxed do not have to bother with creating now xD

[plucky pike]

ty I will check it out

[plucky pike]

I was able to get in but I can't find evrima server on it.

[oblique thorn]

The catalog changes every week. There is a voting function where you can influence what games always appear when the catalog is newly compiled every week.

[plucky pike]

ah ok, thank you.

[ocean basin]

Hello, is there any documentation on what can be tweaked when setting up a server with Evrima ?

[ocean basin]

is it possible to edit food values

[vivid vine]

Hello . I want to comment that I rent/host 3 free Evrima Servers for the first 3 to tell me.

[ocean basin]

That sounds awfully like a scam tbh

[frigid parrot]

yeah

[final dove]

no

[final dove]

no

[final dove]

[vivid vine]

Nop

[lucid frost]

Heyho. I want to try something but cant find anything on that.

(FOR EVRIMA!)
is there a list of ALL thing u can write in the game. ini??
i found some servers where humans are playable. How do they activate that and are there any options to activate more playable dinosaurs? ^^

[golden flare]

[/Script/TheIsle.TIGameSession]

and no, no more playable dinos than the current ones

[lucid frost]

okay, thank u ^^

[golden flare]

[lucid frost]

HeyHoo ^^. I asked that before but not really get an answer on that...

Is there a list of every option u can write in game.ini of the evrima version?

I know there are a few list across the www bit these are all for legacy. 😅

[quiet timber]

Hi guys got a problem here... im running my own server to host people but it doesnt seems to show up. I've tried many things until now but nothing seems to work properly. ANY ADVICE????

[golden flare]

There isn't a list for evrima

[lucid frost]

Mhh. F . Okay. Thank u

[golden flare]

which options are you missing ?

[lucid frost]

Mh not really missing. I just wonder what else is possible to edit in the ini 😅

For exaple. I foumd some other exaples on the www that had a <bDynamicWeatherCycle> in it. Tried it. At the moment it did nothing 🙃

@golden flare

[lucid frost]

The experimental weather might not work. The rest works. Some of the options are given by the steam cmd server installer. Such as the chat and ai options.

[lucid frost]

Dunno. That line was already given when i opend the ini

[golden flare]

Iknow, like 90% of the stuff in the config file can't be changed 😮‍💨

[wintry sierra]

Same problem here. Do you have it running on Linux or Windows?

[pliant schooner]

Windows

[wintry sierra]

Ah okay, I got the issue on Linux 😅

Even if all ports are forwarded

[pliant schooner]

I have all ports forwarded

I have added others even to test and the same thing continues

[wintry sierra]

Same problem, probably anyone can help here?

[lucid frost]

BOTH! Check ur config files ^^

and check the pinned comments! u may find ur answer there

[golden flare]

If your friends can connect and you cant, your router doesn't support it

[pliant schooner]

How do I know if my router supports it?

[golden flare]

#server-hosting message

[pliant schooner]

thank you

[wintry sierra]

I set it up on a hosted server, not my PC 😉 I'll checkout the pinned comments, but at startup everything looks fine like it should.

[golden flare]

is it on the same network though ?

[stone jolt]

is it allowed if one of you guys with a working blank server, send me the files and i can edit the name and other stuff after? cause everything ive tried doesnt work

[wintry sierra]

Nope just rented it on hetzner as dedicted server

I'm working with Ubuntu 22.04

[final dove]

Wont happen

[final dove]

But thats legacy - not Evrima. And you cant change Ai etc in legacy anyways, its a dead setting

[final dove]

Check the robot firewall on hetzner

[lucid frost]

1.... IT IS EVRIMA cause the steam CMD server installer premade these! and 2. next time read all messages before texting. we already know that some options dont do anything yet 🤓 🤓 😒 😒

[final dove]

I dont care what the steamcmd says - the game.ini you linked is 85% legacy

[lucid frost]

and now. what u gonna do about it? arrest me?

[final dove]

Server day length = dont exist, all the Ai things = dont exist, global chat? Doesnt exist

No? Just trying to help you out 🙂

[solar snow]

Why are you being so hostile to someone who's trying to help you?

[final dove]

I run the servers and all coding for Life finds a way, nycta, asura and other communities.

I helped the devs doing some server logs for evrima, and a former QA member.

I’m just trying to help you out my dude.

Also your game.ini is missing rcon and source query information - which is vital for server hosting in evrima

[lucid frost]

k. my ini has rcon.... just dont copied it ^^ the server runs just fine 🙂

[final dove]

Alright good! 🙂

Theres nothing you can really change in Evrima yet - besides player count, humans & the rcon settings / name / admins yet

Sadly its bare in that regard, so we just gotta wait for more features ! 😄

The other stuff you really only can do is have a bot read the games log file > filter it and pass onto discord (chat, combat, admin commands etc) or use rcon to get current player count outside the game.

After that not much. I do believe evrima is planned to get modding later on, but no one knows when :/

[lucid frost]

okay. thx. i just run over some options across the net and tried sem out... didnt really care if they work or not xD

(sry for being a little mean, im really fkn tired but cant go to sleep yet)

[final dove]

😄 its fine.

I’m hosting currently 25+ servers in this game on diff communities with a total over 150.000 members - so i understand.. you can always ask if anything ^^

Its always fun to play with settings a little xD - but yeah i think some official documentation on game.ini could be good to help people.

Also because legacy has AI settings as example, but they have not worked since 2018 xD but still there in game.ini

[lucid frost]

yea. I asked a few days ago if there was a list of all the options that currently work

[inland leaf]

yep that I know now. Thx anyways

I am currently trying to get my server running on my pc but i have so may erros and can't figure out -.-

[inland leaf]

can this be updated ? It's not working this way anymore, I get many errors.

[final dove]

@strange zinc - though not sure what doesn’t exactly work

[final dove]

#announcements message make sure you do this

[inland leaf]

i had this already in my files. I figured out for my self how everything worked.

Thank you anyways

is there any way to grab the information which player has which dino + stats (food, water, growth) without being online?

and without looking into the logs

[final dove]

Sadly no 😦

[inland leaf]

boring...

[final dove]

It used to be possible on evrima until they locked down the files.

Only possibility now is to check the rcon stuff, which also neither allows you to change anything sadly

But i think thats only players online you really can see

[inland leaf]

ye it is

is this a thing that you can't kick/ban through rcon or am i missing something ?

because if i try to kick/ban me, server crashes. Announcment and playerlist working

do you mind if I DM you? @final dove

[final dove]

Honestly rcon is very poorly supported for evrima as you know now, so those crashes wouldn’t even wonder me lmao

Haven’t tried them personally

You can dm 😄 ofc

[golden flare]

Out of curiosity, have you been able to read the player files?

[golden flare]

Rcon works fine and shouldn't crash the server, unless you use the save command. Kick function still doesn't work though after they fixed some security holes

[final dove]

What i personally do is:

Tailing the log file
and then on each event (kill, join, leave, local chat w/e) read the players dinosaur information - and pass it onto a database

So the database have some information of the player in terms of: Player name, steamid, growth, dinosaur, eventual group numbers

• Then i use a regex filter to split out each event such as:

\[(?<timestamp>[0-9\.\-\:]*)\]\[.*\]LogTheIsleChatData: Verbose:.+\[Local\] \[GROUP-(?<groupid>\d*)\] (?<name>.+) \[(?<steamid>\d*)\]: (?<message>.*) for local chats

[golden flare]

Yeah thats pretty much what I've been doing as well

[golden flare]

Do you mind if I dm you?

[final dove]

Sure, already have the exact same topic ongoing with @inland leaf in dms haha 😄

[strange zinc]

Its been 2/3 years since i’ve been active here, so my knowledge hasnt changed from back then

Im afraid that i cant update it

[wintry sierra]

porque cojones empiezo desde 0% con el dinosaurio si llevo ya 50 minutos jugando , que coño haceis con el puto servidor 1 que falla la conexion y me vuele a respawnear

[carmine kite]

692 s is how many seconds the server has been up

A-Ai is active ai, ai loaded in by nearby players

S-AI is stasis ai, ai not loaded in b/c no players are nearby

[tulip wolf]

Ohh, that's what it mean haha

[amber bough]

they're bots

all of the china servers in legacy are all full of bots

it is pretty obvious when you see them using symbols in their names

[scenic girder]

@carmine kite Thx alot. And S-FPS are the FPS of the Server ?

[pure ore]

How can The isle change the number of people online?

[carmine kite]

Ya sfps is the server, fps is your fps

[rain bone]

Sorry if I'm in the wrong place but I'm trying to apply as an official server admin and just can't find where to go

[solid granite]

oi

[karmic sleet]

is there a better instructions on how to do a evrima server, i followed most of the pins and got everything up but it throws a few errors it seems that are not getting me anywhere.

[ornate parcel]

<@&505047238674874368>

[velvet relic]

the pins are fine. I dont have any problem

Is there anywhere an actual Game.ini with all options?

[mint pike]

I have a server hosted through nitrado & am trying to figure out how to allow other dinos like the spino, acro, etc. Can anyone explain to me how to do that or if it's possible? I've played on other servers where people can buy them through discord but I'm not sure how the actual process of allowing the dinos works.

[golden flare]

no, just what's in the pins

[velvet relic]

oh ok, ty. But it looks like, PIN's are also not up2date

i'm not able to change the QueuePort; stays always on Port 10000

also, there is no Info about QueryPort

[golden flare]

you should be able to set it to whatever you want, as they use Epic servers now there isn't a QueryPort anymore

[velvet relic]

ty for the info; but QueuePort is all the time on 10000

[golden flare]

Works great for me, are you on Linux or windows ?

[velvet relic]

Linux in a docker Container; i'll try it to run on pterodactyl

[golden flare]

I can send you my latest egg if you wanna try it

[velvet relic]

problem is; you have 1000 docus with 1000 different values

[velvet relic]

would be great

set the admin tag to my 64 Steam ID but Del and End dont bring up any menu

[faint laurel]

If I remember right, there's a command you have to enter for the menu.

Via chat

[tulip wolf]

It's not possible to locally host an evrima server?

[tulip wolf]

or you can

[faint laurel]

It's possible

[tulip wolf]

Alr

Can you undaunted Gravato

[karmic sleet]

the /adminpanel i tried that and still no change

[charred thunder]

Hey any one know how to Host a Server?

[old wasp]

I am having issue when I set MultiHome in launch params. Below is the error

Warning: Could not serialize my.ip.address.here?Port=7777?QueryPort=7778?MaxPlayers=100?game=Survival?...

and one line below it says Invalid Multihome ip address which includes the ip address and rest of the launch command. Have any idea how to fix this parsing error ?

[golden flare]

try just removing the multihome parameter

[old wasp]

I did that fixes it for sure but I am unable to find my server in the list

is multihome have effect on that ?

[golden flare]

Should show up in the serverlist regardless, I don't use this parameter in my startup at all and it works fine

[old wasp]

ok ty

I am trying to follow the guides I can find but have conflicting approaches in Game.ini file. one sets the variables under
[/script/theisle.igamesession]
other
[/Script/TheIsle.TIGameSession]

any heads up for the up-to-date guide ?

[golden flare]

first off, are you setting up evrima or legacy ? 😄

[old wasp]

evrima

[golden flare]

it should be [/Script/TheIsle.TIGameSession]

[old wasp]

ty

so the multiple admins should be stated under [/Script/TheIsle.TIGameStateBase] with admin per line AdminSteamIDs=blabla right?

[golden flare]

yeah, like this
[/Script/TheIsle.TIGameStateBase] AdminsSteamIDs=xxxx AdminsSteamIDs=xxxx

[atomic matrix]

@golden flare upon launching the server, the rest of AdminsSteamIDs gets cleared out.
So:

[/Script/TheIsle.TIGameStateBase]
AdminsSteamIDs=xxxx
AdminsSteamIDs=xxxx
AdminsSteamIDs=xxxx
``` becomes:
```bash
[/Script/TheIsle.TIGameStateBase]
AdminsSteamIDs=xxxx

[old wasp]

is making this file read-only meaningful then ?

[golden flare]

you shouldn't have to

[golden flare]

does the server boot up and admin working for that one admin?

[old wasp]

server up and running. thanks for the help @golden flare

so now my question is how to enable humans and enabling everything possible 😄

any heads up?

[atomic matrix]

idk how, but Its not being replaced anymore so we are all good. I didn't set it as read-only.

[golden flare]

[/Script/Engine.Game] RconEnabled=true RconPort= RconPassword=

[/Script/TheIsle.TIGameSession] bEnableHumans=true QueuePort=

[old wasp]

❤️

[atomic matrix]

bEnableHumans=true enables hidden human feature. But is there such command for hidden dinosaurs? (if there are any)

[golden flare]

not that i know of, the only dinos are the ones available as far as i know

[atomic matrix]

all right thanks <3

[steady yacht]

Need help with server not appearing on the list. I host the server on Windows Server 2019 and have all ports opened for both inbound and outbound.

[2023.03.07-16.37.13:297][  0]LogSockets: Invalid multihome IP address x.x.x.x?Port=7777?QueryPort=7778```
Yes I replaced the actual IP with `x.x.x.x`

I used the configuration stuff from here: https://github.com/modernham/The-Isle-Evrima-Server-Tools which did stop the infinite loop of crashing and restarting. Just can't find my server on the actual list. If you need the full log file I can post it. I do host other servers like Ark, Cenozoic, and Animalia which all utilize the same ports but I assign different IPs to each individual server.

[old wasp]

a bit above I asked the same question. I think you need to remove MultiHome=x.x.x.x and try again

including the trailing ?

@steady yacht #server-hosting message

[steady yacht]

I can't remove multihome, my bare metal dedicated has a block of IPs

I have to specify which IP the server runs under.

[gilded shell]

hey im looking for someone who knows a good bit about not only setting up a evrima server but also all the configs if you think you can help plz dm me

[steady yacht]

Removing multihome takes away that error but it still doesn't appear on the list.

[old wasp]

if you follow my linked post above you will notice there are differences in configurations if its evrima or legacy.

are you configuring evrima ? @steady yacht

[steady yacht]

The server is running evrima

I'm aware of the different configurations for startup between the isle and evrima

And game ini

[golden flare]

Why are you doing multiple ips to the same server instead of using different ports ?

[steady yacht]

I don't use multi ips for one server? I'm using 1 of the IPs that needs to be assigned to the server.

[golden flare]

Then you don't really need the multihome? Or I'm missing something.. you also don't need query port in your startup

As they don't use steam servers anymore

[steady yacht]

How would I assign a proper IP to the server then?

[golden flare]

Personally I just remove the multihome and queryport parameter entirely, only need gameport, and if enabled, rconport / queport

[steady yacht]

The problem is my dedicated server has multiple IPS, dedicated server as in a bare metal I rent.

The server defaults to what I'm assuming is the default gateway.

[golden flare]

Yeah but as long as you have port forwarding to your server it should be fine, which I guess you do since its rented

[steady yacht]

I don't rent a game server

[golden flare]

No but a bare metal server would still have all the ports forwarded, usually

[steady yacht]

Yeah I did forward them all

Still not appearing weird

[golden flare]

You could always do a canyouseeme.org and see if it's reachable

[steady yacht]

I put an evrima up on my Linux machine and it went online fine. lol

[golden flare]

Yeah I only use Linux as well, so much easier

[steady yacht]

Yeah our issue is the other games we host that need windows server. I'm just going to look for a nice bare metal for linux and just run ptero on it

[golden flare]

Most things can be ran in pterodactyl tbh, just using wine and stuff

[steady yacht]

Yeah I use pterodactyl for my discord bots and other things.

Are there detailed instructions somewhere about how to setup an Evrima server on linux?

considering getting a baremetal or VPS if anyone has recommendations

I saw OVH has decent prices

nvm found this

https://takethebait.net/create-a-dedicated-the-isle-evrima-server-on-ubuntu-22-04-linux/

but if anyone has experience with cloud providers and something to recommend I'm all for it

[runic sierra]

😂

Yeah we were running on 120 full slots with people waiting to get in on last patch (5.0)

At least the first month and half

Gearing up to 6.5

I was not too pleased with the performances as it needed frequent restarts but to be fair to the providers the build they were provided clearly was sh**t back then

it would even require someone to manually click "OK" on an error upon start

Now I'm considering biting the bullet and getting a baremetal from OVH probably.

Don't have much experience with linux servers

I think any decent host providers nowadays offers professionnal grade ddos protection

https://www.ovhcloud.com/fr/bare-metal/prices/

checking for the first entry one

fun fact if you put the site in German it's over 14 euro more a month for the same server

[steady yacht]

OpenVZ is shared on a software level. He'll need either XEN or KVM for a stable VPS to host game servers.

[runic sierra]

I'm actually considering just a dedicated https://www.ovhcloud.com/en-ie/bare-metal/rise/rise-game-1/

their entry level servers at 73 eur a month

[steady yacht]

What country are you from?

[runic sierra]

I'm from Quebec but I'm in Germany

[steady yacht]

OVH usually has great deals if you plan on paying over the coarse of a 12 month period.

[runic sierra]

Yeah I just don't have experience with linux servers

[steady yacht]

You can utilize something like pterodactyl or linux gsm for your gameserver

Most of it is very easy to setup just by running a batch script they provide in their tutorials

Depends on the host. A lot of hosting companies overload their systems. You'll see a huge performance impact using OpenVZ is the host doesn't care and oversells.

With KVM it's dedicated resources allocated to you. Sure it costs a little more money, but you get that performance guaranteed.

[runic sierra]

I went through this (given that it is up to date) and it looks pretty straight forward

https://takethebait.net/create-a-dedicated-the-isle-evrima-server-on-ubuntu-22-04-linux/

It's just a shame because on 4.0 our game server was hosted on gportal and at 110 players it was butter smooth with nothing to complain about.

5.0 was a mess performance wise

server had to be rebooted every 2 hours

[steady yacht]

Only reason I recommended Pterdodactyl is because its a fully managed game panel.

https://pterodactyl.io/

It'll be much better in the end to go the ptero route then trying to manage a server in the backend of linux yourself.

[runic sierra]

I got a bot hosted on heroku that I'd like to migrate also to this server I guess since I'm paying a 7$ a month dyno

😅

[steady yacht]

You can host bots through ptero too, they have support for everything.

If you're getting that Rise-GAME-1 from OVH. You'll have more than enough power for all that stuff.

[runic sierra]

What do you mean?

The bot is a proprietary node.js app

[steady yacht]

They have modules for node.js

[runic sierra]

ahhh cool interesting

[steady yacht]

They have it for Python, RUST and other ones too

[runic sierra]

I might look into it

[steady yacht]

I host 2 python bots, and a nodejs bot for discord.

[runic sierra]

I'l add you as a friend might have a few question

[steady yacht]

Sure thing.

[runic sierra]

had never heard of ptero until few mins ago

seems interesting

[golden flare]

It's pretty neat, will make it alot easier to manage for you and your staff I imagine

[safe hare]

how do you server host

?

[merry urchin]

you seem pretty knowledgeable on server hosting. How can i server host an evrima server?

[golden flare]

Depends, do you plan to host it on linux or windows

[merry urchin]

windows

i cant seem to find tutorials

[merry urchin]

ideally free, but im always willing to pay

[golden flare]

If you have a spare pc, you can probably host it off that, otherwise you'd have to go with a hosting site that provides Evrima

[merry urchin]

dont have any extra Pc's

[merry urchin]

which hosting site do you recommend?

just a server for me and my friend

[golden flare]

If you just want to play around with admin commands you can join my discord and get that

[merry urchin]

really? alr then

[old wasp]

I have an issue regarding ping times. My server seems to have 444 ping in the server list but when connected it is around 14 msec ping. When I allow all the ports to my IP adress, it displays correctly in the server list but my friends still sees 444. what could be the issue ?

since the server is in a good datacenter and has a really low latency to where I live, I want to attract local players.

being able to show correct latency is kinda important for that reason

[safe hare]

how do you host a server in normal isle

??

hello

?

[old wasp]

is rcon working properly in evrima ?

i couldn't be able to rcon to the server. trying to find my way right now.

[final dove]

Make sure your game.ini has the proper rcon information set up.
Enable, port, password & of course make sure the ports are opened on the firewall

RCON in Evrima is a little wonky - it does work; however but it doesn't close open connections properly and can with time lead into a little party.
But tl;dr theres commands, they work, and you can use them - not just a ton of commands

[old wasp]

does rcon port listens UDP or TCP ?

I feel it's tcp because I can see Unauthenticated RCON connection tried sending commands warning in the server log

but I cant auth 😄

with UDP I can auth but cant get any response

[golden flare]

idk how you are trying to auth, but there is a bot you can use for RCON, but it's not really worth your time as the only things you can do is get player list and send ingame announcements

[old wasp]

I noticed that by looking at the sourcecode of the project below. Protocol and the bytes sent seemed imited. https://github.com/modernham/The-Isle-Evrima-Server-Tools

I am willing to provide some automation ingame but for now it looks like what I am willing is impossible.

[golden flare]

it's not impossible, I have it automated, but it requires some work, and with the limited RCON options available I'm not sure it's worth the trouble

[old wasp]

is it possible to change growth with RCON ? All I can see about the protocol from the working python above is sending second byte between 0x10 to 0x50. are there any list of available commands?

[willow salmon]

https://www.twitch.tv/witcher_ark

🙏🏽

[golden flare]

No it's not possible

[safe hare]

how do you server host?

[safe hare]

hello?

[wintry sierra]

Hi guys, I've seen a lot columns talking about motd isn't active on evrima, but no solution for now. Has it probably being activated within the last months? How can I get it active on Linux Server? I just tried the old way with MOTD.txt in Saved folder, but doesn't works.

[wintry sierra]

On Linux I've this guide for you:
https://takethebait.net/create-a-dedicated-the-isle-evrima-server-on-ubuntu-22-04-linux/

[final dove]

You can't, its not a thing - it does not exist

[hazy glade]

how do you create your own server for cheap or no money

[storm elk]

how to create a server in legacy for free

[golden flare]

nothing is free, you need to either host it on your own hardware or rent a server

[oblique thorn]

The only one I know so far where you can get server for free is mygameplatform.com
I also use this site

[cunning rose]

Is that possible to disable IA spawn with a DevKit ?

[merry urchin]

Wrong channel bud

[hearty star]

Is there a way to read the evrima logs?

[runic sierra]

You can open them with any text editor in your server Logs folder

it's the .log files

Not everything is logged. A lot of stuff is missing

[hearty star]

can you read them from all the players?

[runic sierra]

what?

It's just a flat text file where the server dump lines of events

[hearty star]

like if your not on the server

[runic sierra]

you need access to the server to read the log files

[silent magnet]

Is there a tutorial for windows?

Ladies and gentlemen

[radiant trellis]

where mien servers for this game

this is good game but dont have good servers to play

[humble shard]

im new to game, im trying to host by just using the Host button on launch screen but all i get is a black screen. What am i doing wrong?

[solar snow]

Nothing, hosting is broken and doesn't work. There's no known fixes

[humble shard]

thanks!

[merry urchin]

Does anyone know a cheap hosting service?

Or just an easy way to host a server, cheapest I could find was £25 a month.

[runic sierra]

how many slots? I can get you 10% off gportal and it starts at 10 slots a month I think

depends what you look for

[gilded shell]

if u got a old pc or laptop self hosting would probably be ur cheapest option

[small harbor]

is it possible to host an Evrima server in this update by following the pinned link?

[golden flare]

probably not, but people have posted multiple guides further up

[cunning rose]

Do you know if I can find the IG hour in the files of my server ?

[merry urchin]

That would be amazing, 10 slots is good.

[runic sierra]

https://www.g-portal.com/?ref=PoutineItalienne

[runic sierra]

this link will give you 10% off

[golden flare]

I've struggled with RCON on Gportal, have you gotten that working ?

[runic sierra]

I'l give it another go I just migrated but it seems to work

[golden flare]

alright, I've had issues with authenticating as Gportal spams the server with RCON packets

[golden flare]

hm interesting

[runic sierra]

Seems to work I haven't played around with it too much

maybe they had an issue that they resolved? RCON is quite new

[golden flare]

could be, even though when i talked to them they weren't interested in helping 😄

I'll test it again and see if it works now

[runic sierra]

had the wrong link I updated it

[gritty pumice]

i want one server how to get a server?

[runic sierra]

You can self host on your own machine or rent a server blade & do it yourself. Or go with a gaming server provider like gportal, gtxgaming, pingperfect, nitrado which offer evrima servers with a web interface

[runic sierra]

yeah I have no problem sending announcements or stuff via RCON I tested a bit

[shadow basalt]

sorry to bother, ive skimmed the messages but cannot find an answer. how do i fix these errors?

[static portal]

My friend and I are wanting a server that aims for fair and fun gameplay. Not necessarily rp or perfect realism but just one where we can play, there are rules and we don't die every 5-10 minutes from hunger or a bigger creature just killing for fun!
We are also in New Zealand so, unless some people like staying up all night or all morning, we will be at the opposite time of the day to the US.
We will follow rules and are just wanting a fun Isle experience the way that it was intended to be (so none of the cannibalism or killing for fun stuff).
If anyone has a server like that or knows of one could you please tag me here!
Thanks!!!

[golden flare]

You can check out #unofficial-isle-communities there's a bunch of discords and servers there

[static portal]

thank you 🙂

[runic sierra]

Evrima you're talking about? There's no such server at the moment and I don't see it happening in a near future

Some people talk a lot about such servers but in practicality all the ones that I recall trying fell flat quite fast or never took off

[static portal]

That makes sense. I suppose that could be due to the game only having a certain amount of replayability

Would one be better/more successful if the lifespans of the dinos were longer/slowed? That way each Dino could be played for longer and so have more of a story arch?

It would probably also help to have a bunch of people who were all willing and eager to play the game but also roleplay since they seems to be the best way to "play fair"

[silent magnet]

Where to find server plugins

[runic sierra]

I think it's mainly due to a lot of rules being very difficult or impossible to enforce without having admins playing gestapo in spec mode 24/7 and power tripping which no one wants to play on servers like that

And just not being fun to play with overboard rules in the end

When you need to read an excel spreadsheet to try to figure out what you're allowed to do or not and every time something happens people falsely report / whine / admins power trip

this has been my experience on servers that were "rules heavy"

It was terrible, I'l take official servers chaos over it anytime

[kindred cloak]

my server doesnt show up and ive tried everything it says to do if it dont show up

[patent elk]

Hello, I have a question. I have a Linux root server and with LinuxGSM The Isle Evrima installed, the server is also running very well. Now I would like the server to restart at several times, about 4 times a day. How can I do that is there a trick? Unfortunately I can't find anything about it online. Greeting Dream.

[golden flare]

use pterodactyl instead 😂

if not you can use cron tasks to restart the service whenever you'd like

[ocean swallow]

Is there any guide/tutorial on how to host a dedicated server for evrima?

[carmine kite]

I'm not sure if there are any specifically for evrima, but there are probably guides for hosting a server on a steam beta branch

[ocean swallow]

mh, i saw there was a guide but for ubuntu, not sure if its the same in windows, on steam there is a 'the isle dedicated server' but not sure if it works for evrima too

i'll install it and see if i can do something with that

[naive onyx]

Just finished working on a guide for Evrima hosting, hopefully it helps some peeps https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2952501611

[golden flare]

Its a nice guide, but you seem to be mixing legacy and evrima options, also there is no longer a queryport as they're using epic's servers

[naive onyx]

yeah I've had my server for a while, so some of the info is confusing

which ones are legacy options I'll remove them

[golden flare]

Pretty sure these are all legacy options

bServerFallDamage=true
bServerAllowReplayRecording=false
bServerDynamicTimeOfDay=true
ServerTimeOfDayInSeconds=21600
ServerLengthOfDayInSeconds=3600
bServerDynamicWeather=true```you can also add `bEnableHumans=true` in there

[naive onyx]

alrighty cheers

[golden flare]

Np, also the whole section with Launching different maps I'd remove until there are any maps as that option is also likely to change

[naive onyx]

yeah I debated about it

thanks for the tips

[wet sedge]

Hello anyone who may be able to help. Just started to dabble in the Isle Server hosting. I followed the common directions and noticed the game.ini and engine.ini are not created. I had to manually create the folder "WindowsServer" and created both engine.ini and game.ini. Are there other files that I may be missing as well? I get a few red error and server does not create session.

My used path:
G:\theisleserver\TheIsle\Saved\Config\WindowsServer

Edit: I found the generic game and engine ini files and edited as needed but still have issues

[wet sedge]

I found my issue. I want to post what I found to those who may overlook the issue I had. I was using the "Shortcut Launch" method where you copy the following after your location on a shortcut.

?Port=7777?MaxPlayers=100 -log -ini:Engine:[EpicOnlineServices]:DedicatedServerClientId=xyza7891gk5PRo3J7G9puCJGFJjmEguW -ini:Engine:[EpicOnlineServices]:DedicatedServerClientSecret=pKWl6t5i9NJK8gTpVlAxzENZ65P8hYzodV8Dqe5Rlc8 | set /P "="

I found that I reached the character count for the TARGET and it stopped partway through the DedicatedServerClientSecret key and this was causing the issue. I ended up shortening a few dir and the exe and it worked. Maybe the .bat method would be better. Just wanted to put this out in the world

[golden flare]

Bat file is probably better anyway since you can add update and failsafe to it

[wet sedge]

I read that. I may switch!

[whole bluff]

@gloomy ether over here another one

[patent elk]

Hello, how is it possible to send an automatic message to the server? (Evrima).

Preferably at a certain time, such as just before a server restart

[ocean swallow]

LogEOSNetworkAuth: Warning: Skipping verification of connecting user -- because this connection is not trusted. To verify users, turn on trusted dedicated servers.

Anyone knows why is this now showing up? yesterday i had people joining and nothing, now when someone wants to join, they get time out, i got this message on the console too

[golden flare]

Using rcon, to have it automatically you'd have to use a bot or something

[patent elk]

can you recommend me a bot?

[golden flare]

If you want it to be automatic you'd have to build one or get someone to build one for you

[runic sierra]

You will need a bot to connect via RCON

That supports it

I don't think there are any public one out there at the moment. My bot can do it and I know @golden flare's bot can also

[patent elk]

ok is this a public bot that anyone can use ?

[golden flare]

No, I only know of 1 public RCON bot for Evrima, but you can't automate things there, just a simple send announcement with a / command

If you want you can send me a dm and I can help you out

[runic sierra]

At the moment I'm almost done adding multi-server support to my bot and I plan on offering some part of it at least for free to select servers depending on their size & what they run as rules & location

But it would be reserved to servers with an actual healthy population once 6.5 hits

There is no point in me offering support to servers without any playerbase that are essentially ghost owns

[tranquil agate]

hello, can someone explain this error please?

it was after a frame drop crossing a river and bitten by a deino, and it kept appearing either in the air or underground

the body just ragdolled, no death screen

[median vessel]

Hi, I'm trying to set up a legacy server and I'm following StolidSnow's guide on it. I've gotten up to the part where I'm supposed to configure the server, but the Game.ini file won't show up. All I'm getting is GameUserSettings and nothing else. I'm pretty sure I've followed everything to a T up to this point. The only thing that may have gone wrong is around the Port Forwarding step, because my router is a little wonky. But I believe I got that all set up correctly with some help from my partner.

[golden flare]

You can just create the Game.ini file, I would guess your guide has an example of one

[median vessel]

Yeah, that's what I ended up doing. I'm just getting everything configured right now

[fringe valley]

Do you still have this issue?

[tranquil agate]

@fringe valley it got solved after a few retries, i think the server still add some outdated info about the client, and it mismatched, like trying to load a dead entity

thanks

[rugged patio]

where do I report someone hacking?

even got clips lmao

[merry urchin]

In an unofficial server?

[rugged patio]

no in an official

[merry urchin]

go to #evrima-na , #evrima-eu , #evrima-au , #evrima-sa according to the place you were in and ping server admin and say the server you were on

[rugged patio]

how do i ping server admin?

thanks btw!

could someone help me with this?

[steady yacht]

Is it possible to query evrima servers?

[golden flare]

not that i know of, since you would have to query the epic servers somehow

[steady yacht]

I noticed I can still query the base isle game

[golden flare]

yeah that still works fine

[steady yacht]

Just anything related to Evrima can't be, or is the base game still on steam?

[golden flare]

the base game still uses steam servers

[steady yacht]

aaah got it

[golden flare]

you would have to use RCON to get player info for Evrima sadly

[golden flare]

I'm assuming he means query the server for playerinfo/playercount, like you can with steam servers

Not sure how that works with epic's servers

[golden flare]

Do you know how to ?

[merry urchin]

Good I have a doubt my server does not appear in the table of servers and has good ping do you have any solution for my community?

[steady yacht]

Yeah I see it already, looking at their query api now

[lament spear]

hi, does anyone know how to solve this problem? i installed the evrima branch for the first time since 2021 and now when im trying to connect to a server it will load and after a few seconds this appears. i cant connect to any servers atm.

[torpid hare]

could anyone help me on why it gives me this error when I host a server with the bat file, my friends cant join either

[stable wagon]

did you find the solution?

[naive onyx]

Try verifying your files on steam.

[torpid hare]

nope

:/

[stable wagon]

i think i found the problem

[torpid hare]

what is it?

[stable wagon]

https://takethebait.net/solving-connection-timed-out-error-the-isle-evrima-dedicated-server/

[torpid hare]

still cannot seem to find the issue

[sterile reef]

When does the server restart?

[stable wagon]

i can access my server from outside, but not from the inside for the moment, I will configure the access from the inside

[stable wagon]

Yep all working on my side

[faint laurel]

It's because your router doesn't support hairpinning like the website says. You can't connect but others can. @torpid hare

[torpid hare]

i tried to get my friend to join, same error showed up for him

[faint laurel]

Ohh maybe that was for the other guy.

Your problem Im not sure.
What does your server log look like.

And is there any red text.

[torpid hare]

yes

both of these

[faint laurel]

What's the last bit.

Or just post a log file

The last 50 lines or so after the server has stalled out or started would be most useful

[torpid hare]

thats the log

[faint laurel]

Looks like it came up okay. That narrows it down. It's most likely your ports or file corruption

Or firewall.

[torpid hare]

must be ports or firewall

[faint laurel]

Windows firewall, or router ports.

[torpid hare]

file cant be corrupted because i already redownloaded it

[faint laurel]

But the server is definitely running

While it's running use this https://canyouseeme.org/

To check the port.

If it says closed or takes a long time, the server can't be reached due to firewall or ports.

[faint laurel]

I would normally say if you can't connect inside it definitely means firewall. But if you have a combination of no router hairpinning, and ports, it would produce the same result

[torpid hare]

yea its gotta be a firewall issue then

[faint laurel]

To make sure you have router hairpinning enabled, you can try piniging your public IP from a computer on your network.

If you can't ping it, your router doesn't support hsirpinning, which unfortunately means you wouldn't be able to connect to your own even if firewall was fixed.

That's what I see most problems here. Just because the game is networked.

[torpid hare]

for control panel firewall do i need any ports in output? or just input?

[faint laurel]

Theoreticly only input. But I would do both accept while your troubleshooting

[fringe zodiac]

hey guys servers are not loading to me is there a selution to this ?

[fierce sluice]

how to host server?

[runic sierra]

either do it yourself which requires some basic skills or rent through an host like gportal, nitrado, pingperfect. If you're interested I can get you 10% off game servers rental with gportal

this has been happening to me too

@glossy jewel read above^

where and how can i buy a server in the isle?

[lament spear]

Were u able to solve the problem?

[formal lodge]

can this be hosted on a unbuntu server or does it have to be windows cuz i have both a wndows server rack pc and a linux but my linux has more ram to host

[gilded shell]

Yh it can

[formal lodge]

is there special link to get that started on unbuntu?

[golden flare]

I'd recommend getting pterodactyl if you plan on hosting multiple servers, otherwise you can probably follow this guide https://takethebait.net/create-a-dedicated-the-isle-evrima-server-on-ubuntu-22-04-linux/

[analog thorn]

?

[formal lodge]

thank you so much i will host my own i have a linux server with 178gb or ram and dual 12 cores i think i am set on that aspect XD

[midnight reef]

no

[midnight reef]

look at my two clips in #videos-and-streams

that look familiar?

[lament spear]

I have now watched both clips for a few min and i can tell that we have two different kind of problems. Atleast youre able to join the servers. Im not.

[golden flare]

Nice, would definitely go for a game panel then

[abstract slate]

[runic sierra]

@analog thorn

wut?...

[slender onyx]

whats a good vps

🤔

[formal lodge]

Game panel?

[golden flare]

Look up pterodactyl, nice free gamepanel for Linux

[formal lodge]

is there a way to change the ports reason i ask is because ark is using some of those ports along with my killing floor 2 server

i have 27015 being used and port 7777 how do i change the ports the isle uses?

[golden flare]

In pterodactyl or in general?

[formal lodge]

in general or can pterodactyl help with that?

[golden flare]

It can yeah, but in general you can just assign a different port in the startup command and allow it in the firewall in linux

[formal lodge]

ok cuz i host alot of servers XD gmod, gmod prop, killing floor, ark, 5 differnt versions of minecraft, astroneer, and a few others and def need to change the ports

[formal lodge]

2023.04.08-16.03.36:026][ 0]LogSockets: Warning: Could not serialize ----------------?Port=7775?QueryPort=7776, got error code SE_TRY_AGAIN [49]
[2023.04.08-16.03.36:026][ 0]LogSockets: Invalid multihome IP address -----------------?Port=7775?QueryPort=7776

and i have those ports forwarded on the router already but still giving me that error i have removed my ip from the error

and i have no firewall enabled on the server its all via router 🙂

[midnight reef]

o fr? I keep getting kicked and the message says lost connection but my internet speed remains unchanged

[formal lodge]

i think i sorted it out

[runic sierra]

Connection to host as been lost?

That's an issue on the devs end

that in should be resolved in 6.5....

That's all the guide I'm following has, so that would be nice

[hot coral]

So I'm trying to get everything set up to host a legacy server, but my steamcmd is telling me it failed to install app 412680 due to a disk write error. Any idea how to fix this? is it because I have steamcmd on my d drive while the server folder is on my c drive?

If so am I able to just move the folder from my c drive to my d drive and tell steamcmd to force install the directory there?

[hot coral]

Is anyone able to help me figure this out?

[hot coral]

So I fixed the one issue and did everything else that I needed to do to set up the server. steamcmd.exe see4ms to have started the server up, but it won't show up in the legacy server list when I search for it?

[glossy jewel]

Hey Ya'll I rented a server just to try it out on pingperfect and I'm having some issues finding it and actually using it. I'm new to this so it might be something really simple and silly that I'm doing or not doing. It says the server is active and running but I can't find it and when I try to open it thru the website using steam this is the message I get. Any of you know a solution to my issue? Thanks a lot 🙂

I once rented from pingperfect, I had to reinstall my server a couple times and contact them about the issue. It doesn't seem to be an isle related issue, but rather an issue on their end.

[glossy jewel]

I made a Ticket on their website. They reinstalled the server and it started working right away. Thanks a lot for your help! Appreciate it.

[novel cape]

where do i buy a server for evrima ?

[civic hemlock]

I am so sorry to disturb. I have a question for which I couldn't find any answer. How much it will cost to rent/month an evrima server with a max number of 50 players? between 20-50 players? Again accept my sincere apologies for the disturbance.. Due to the high volume of work I can't quite access discord often these days so, please send me a private message with the details. Thank you very much.

[novel cape]

dont worry im curios too

[golden flare]

50 players is about 30 dollar ish on various gamesites. there's plenty of sites like g-portal, nitrado

[paper yoke]

Probably would be best to either directly DM Punchpacket your concerns or put this in #general-feedback as this is a troubleshooting channel.

[alpine blade]

sorry i'm trying to find my legacy server among community servers but i can't see it i can only see it in lan options but my friends can't see it in community options either can anyone help me with this problem?

my server is dedicated

[paper yoke]

Have a look here. There’s some troubleshooting at the bottom. Also ensure you’ve followed all the steps properly. #server-hosting message

[alpine blade]

ty 🙏

[alpine blade]

That is the same manual that I used, I configured it step by step but it has been 2 months since I got out of the same problem xD

[paper yoke]

Legacy or Evrima server?

[alpine blade]

Legacy

[paper yoke]

My first guess would be to ensure port forwarding was done correctly. You can also try joining the server through a direct link, let me check how to make it real quick

[alpine blade]

I have already been able to upload Evrima servers but the Legacy server won't let me

[paper yoke]

Legacy servers are finicky and have become increasingly more difficult to find and join. Try using this. Replace IPADDRESS with the server ipaddress and PORT with the port. This will directly let you join the server. steam://connect/IPADDRESS/PORT

If it says server not responding, the server is either offline or not configured properly.

[alpine blade]

Okay, I will try it

[cold burrow]

Anyone els having issues with your dedicated servers RUNNING and accessable through direct links BUT JUST NOT SHOWING UP in the game when it searches for servers? If you've found the solution please let me know

[velvet pumice]

open port 7777-7778 27015-27017 tcp/udp

and ICMP should open

[runic sierra]

When it comes to your complain about encrypted save files I heavily disagree. Allowing to mingle around with injecting dinos is just a free pass to all these TERRIBLE saves / gambling / wanna be economies on private servers that turn most "communites" into shitty pay 2 win garbage

If there is a rule break on evrima any admin can just look into it and grow that person in-game

99% of "dino injecting" had nothing to do with "resolving rule breaks"

[faint laurel]

Are you AWARE just don't join a scam server? Can't we just expect people can do something as simple as not get scammed on a third party server on dinosaur game without the devs having to police those too.
Are you AWARE that of Couse a game is going to push official servers over third party for the above statement you just made as a valid argument. Changing to unofficial servers is by no means difficult and requires 2 clicks at the most.
Are you AWARE that you don't need to edit a database file to inject dinos as the server can be modified via memory which isn't encrypted and no anticheat has to run on the server. Your technical limitation does not warrant a complaint.

Get out of here with that cry baby stuff @hazy fern We talk about server hosting here, not complaints. Take that to feedback

[plucky pike]

Can someone please help me. I am looking for a free server hoster for legacy and all I can see is rental servers. Is it possible to get free servers and if so, what websites can I get one on. I am really looking forward to getting a server since my friends are very sad and depressed and would really love a server to be made for just us.

[faint laurel]

You will not find a free server host. And if it seems that way, they are just selling all of your information.

[plucky pike]

Why is it that i hear from people that get servers for free tho?

[paper yoke]

Hosting a server will either cost you resources or money. You cannot have a free server. Hosting a non dedicated server through an external site, such as pingperfect or Gportal, costs money. You can host a dedicated server through your or another pc, however this will require manually setting up and computer resources. Plus the system must be running all the time for the server to stay open

[runic sierra]

There is no such thing as "free servers". Some people get sponsored by some rental companies and technically get them "for free" but for that you need some sort of established content creator profile. If you're looking to rent a small server at affordable cost I can get you 10% but the tooth fairy doesn't exist

[plucky pike]

ok ty

[velvet pumice]

I personally hope that the official can add more RCON commands .Of course, the RCON command is not an official must do thing. Now the official focus is on the update of EVRIMA, that is gud. But if more RCON commands can be provided, it will be very helpful for the daily management of EVRIMA private server, especially the private rule server

[runic sierra]

could do but an RCON for grows would have the same effect as tempering with save files. I'm all for bans, kicks, change dino spawns state etc...

I definately want an "unban" as going to modify the .json file is annoying

[velvet pumice]

I strongly agree, hope unban can add in rcon

[runic sierra]

you missed my point. Allowing for that is just door wide open to another round of endless pay2win garbage

but I think you're in the wrong channel

[faint laurel]

You say it's more productive but you're still here waisting your time when again, you should put that in the feedback channel.

[crude lake]

Hope everyone is well. I haven't played in a while, the last server I played and enjoyed was Nycta if anyone's familiar. I was wondering if there's any EU servers about with similar/strong rules? Thanks

[runic sierra]

this is not exactly the place this is for server hosting discussions

[slim citrus]

How can I add mods to my server like where to get the id from

[final dove]

Steam Workshop does not exist for Legacy or Evrima at the given time, thus you won't be able to use ids for any kind of mods.

[slim citrus]

Then why do they add the line for mods smh

I seen a pic of a mod giga from isle

[silk flame]

https://isle.fandom.com/wiki/The_Isle_Server_Settings_and_Configuration

[final dove]

Was just talking in a general sense (Hence pointing to both games), i do know the EnabledMods= was probably the concern for his question! 😄

[stable jasper]

is there a way to supress "[2023.04.20-23.09.59:009][ 9]LogPhysics: Warning: UWorld::FindTeleportSpot called with an actor that is intersecting geometry. Failed to find new location likely due to actor's root component not being a collider component." from appearing in thhe terminal?

and how do i not stream this type of data onto the log file?

[stable jasper]

that did the trick, how bout warnings?

and display?

[stable jasper]

im a little new to batch ^.^'

where it says "warning:" in the log above, i wasnt sure if there was a way to nuke that too

[soft knoll]

i just get stuck on this i have a legacy works fine.. buit when i tried to setup the beta one i get this

[soft knoll]

can please get some help

[soft knoll]

hellooo?

[final dove]

Looks fine

[soft knoll]

So 0.0.0.0 is fine even though those aren't the ports I even have it setup on

And doesn't start don't see it

Doesn't start can't see it

Shouldn't that have the IP address not 0.0.0.0

[2023.04.24-04.05.52:777][ 0]LogSockets: Warning: Could not serialize ...?Port=7756?QueryPort=10001?MaxPlayers=100?, got error code SE_NO_ERROR [0]
[2023.04.24-04.05.52:778][ 0]LogSockets: Invalid multihome IP address ...?Port=7756?QueryPort=10001?MaxPlayers=100?

hiding the ip address

all so tried it several times the windowssever folder does not get created i have to create in and game.ini and engine.ini

also going through the log i dont see it setting a servername anywhere either

[soft knoll]

Can I see a proper game.ini

[soft knoll]

?

[final dove]

Theres no errors in the image, or anything that should not be there.
Double check your port forwards for the server, hands down - make sure you got the Game.ini all set up

0.0.0.0 is all fine, that means they will just run on available ips

[2023.04.24-04.05.52:777][  0]LogSockets: Warning: Could not serialize ...?Port=7756?QueryPort=10001?MaxPlayers=100?, got error code SE_NO_ERROR [0]

This here is a concern yes, try to launch it without MultiHome=Xxx.xxx.xxx

[final dove]

Yeah, WindowsServer etc you need to create and do some files in

[soft knoll]

It doesn't though I've don't it several times

So I had to manually create it etc

[final dove]

Yes, you have to create it manually

[soft knoll]

Can I see a proper game.ini

[final dove]

[/Script/TheIsle.TIGameStateBase]
AdminsSteamIDs=7656119xxx

[/Script/TheIsle.TIGameSession]

Obviously adjust to your stuffs (admins, rcon ports, names etc), and then attempt not having MultiHome in your .bat file

Also these here:

Whatever you have after doing this game.ini:
https://i.imgur.com/iqoZGoW.png

Make sure they're port forwarded too :????

[soft knoll]

Yeah that looks like what I have but I'll double check when I get back Infront of computer

[soft knoll]

@final dove negatic

negative

doesnt work

[golden flare]

Anyone here wanna test out an RCON bot I'm building? Send me a dm

[soft knoll]

it wont go bpast the que system listening

[hazy fern]

Server team,
For Evrima

What are the pre-requisites for backing up and restoring player data?
TheIsle/Saved/PlayerData/[steamid.sav]
Each time i restore their data and then they launch the server wipes their data and brings them in as a fresh dino?

Is there something im missing?

[soft knoll]

@final dove so I got the beta server running. But if I try to start a the legacy one now different directory etc says can't find the legacy maps

were you trying to host Legacy or evrima ?

maybe try with /Game/TheIsle/Maps/Landscape3/Isle_V3 if it's legacy

[hazy fern]

@hoary cave ?

[wintry marlin]

Looking to hire bot dev. I need someone to help with bots. Dm if interested.

[merry urchin]

how to host an the isle evrima server on my computer?

[shrewd barn]

My gosh are the legacy logs a nightmare to work with ;-;

[final dove]

Theres only chat logs, wdym? 😄

[shrewd barn]

I mean you have kick/ban logs as well and you can sort of vaguely infer half of the joins

but I'm desperately trying to at least link every playername to a steamid but even that is proving a pain in the bum

[final dove]

Best, and easiest thing you can do is having a Discord bot checking all playerfiles > converting their steamid to a player name > so you have the steamid's name

• then you could make a script that: If playername writes ingame > check database if any name match > print out name and steamid

However the issue there really comes in if two players has an "exact" same name, then it most likely wouldn't really figure out whos who

[shrewd barn]

That's what I am doing, issue is that the game doesnt always make a save for every player and sometimes it's a bit delayed
