[tough ember]

Np Careful with the kisses

This might sound odd, but try to add -QueryPort YourPortofChoice to both your starting scripts, pick 2 unused ports, open em in firewall too ofc. And then start both servers again @velvet pumice

Like:
start /wait TheIsleServer.exe -Port=WhateverPort -QueryPort=WhateverPort2 -log
^ Fit this to whatever your start script looks like ofc.

[velvet pumice]

ok i will try

there is anothere difference with my normal run server1 log. it is this

it said very long time between ticks

server1 no such logs

[tough ember]

sounds normal, try the queryport stuff (I see that long tick stuff in my log all the time)

[velvet pumice]

trying now

hope it work\

[tough ember]

Hopefully 😄

[velvet pumice]

omg

it works

wtf

?

[tough ember]

Perfect, don't ask me why, idk. lol

[velvet pumice]

just because i change ?port to "-port"?

? to -?

lol

[tough ember]

Its either that or the Queryport.

[velvet pumice]

yea

thx bro\

[tough ember]

Np^^

[pastel knoll]

everytime i try to start up and host a game it keeps getting stuck on a black screen. Does anyone know a solution? I just downloaded the game today

[tough ember]

You mean "host a game" as in using the Host button in the Legacy version?

[pastel knoll]

yeah its the one from Steam. I'm trying to host a game but it keeps loading to a black screen when i confirm the options

[tough ember]

Oh yeah that button doesn't work. I don't know when the last time is that it did, most people are on the beta "evrima" version by now which is the only one getting developed still.

You'd have to go the dedicated server hosting route if you want one of your own, otherwise join existing community servers

[pastel knoll]

I did try joining that beta but when I couldn't click on anything in the main menu

it just kept opening the discord link

[tough ember]

That sounds mysterious. Can you try switching to the evrima beta branch and also wiping your config folder? Press Win Key -> Type %localappdata% and just delete the whole "The Isle" folder there.

[pastel knoll]

lemme try that real quick

evrima branch is installing right now

[pastel knoll]

i deleted the folder but still can't click anything

can't even click quit

[tough ember]

Never heard that before, maybe you'll find something about it in #🔧-evrima-troubleshooting-🔧

[merry urchin]

did i remember wrong? or is un-official server Evrima global chat a thing now? i thought i saw something about it in the discord.... I can take this to a different channel if needed.

[solar snow]

Not yet, it's still being worked on

[merry urchin]

ah okay thanks for letting me know maybe i saw wrong or something...but thank you for clearing that up for me 👍

[terse tree]

Hello everyone. There use to be a script to monitor the log file for in game chat in Legacy, and it would use a discord hook to put those logs in discord live. Does anyone happen to have it, or know where to find it?

[novel zenith]

Hello everyone. We got a server from G-Portal for private purposes, now we have a few problems and I hope someone here can help me. We use a color pack, but the colors are not saved after logging out, although the time is waited. In addition, we were able to form groups before, but this is no longer possible. We restarted the server, restarted the game and much more, but nothing helps. I also have another question about the Ai's: How can you make sure they don't run away? I hope for help and thank you in advance.

I forgot one more important piece of information in case you need it: It is a legacy server.

Anybody else seeing just a bunch of this being spammed in the console post update, fresh Game.ini and fresh install? I haven't tried but I'm assuming that the server isn't going to be in the list per the hundreds of messages a millisecond here

Edit: Forgive me for I am tired, I realize now it's supposed to be running on Gateway and not Spiro, probably best to update the [/Script/TheIsle.TIGameSession] header in the example game.ini in the steam post to include the MapName=Gateway line ;)

[golden vale]

Hello,

Since the update my server doesn't start at all, does anyone have a solution?

[golden vale]

it still doesn't work :'c

[final dove]

MapName=Gateway

add this in below the server name, ..should solve your problem (If, it isn't there)

just had another guy with the same issue as @vagrant thorn up above.

They didn't have the

MapName=Gateway

in the game.ini in the Category of: [/Script/TheIsle.TIGameSession] (above or below server name)

it's not listed in the official announcement either, but it should solve your starting up issues. I just pinged @hoary cave to add it in on the community discord

[golden vale]

still doesn't work for me :/

[keen merlin]

epic key?

With a new release of Easy Anti Cheat servers now require some additional info when launching. You will need to add the below to your start scripts or command line when launching

[stone jolt]

im trying to join my server and it just says connecting and never gets anywhere, nothing in the host console either

and even with blocking it pteros are still spawning

[green depot]

#evrima-eu or #evrima-na

[golden flare]

Open ports

[stone jolt]

i figured it had something to do with that after i sent the message, but i cant do it just yet cause xfinity is stupid and needs me to have the app on a phone to actually port forward

[golden flare]

Well there's your why, might be easier to just rent one

[stone jolt]

i just wish xfinity wasnt so anti consumerist

they make everything so complicated, you used to be able to port forward from the web, and it was perfectly fine, what should they do about it? remove that feature and move it to a mobile app

ty for your time though

[stone jolt]

i went to port forward but it all seemed to be fine

still cant join though

[stone jolt]

also it says the map is isle_spiro even when it says i have it set to gateway in startup.bat

[tough ember]

I'm not sure putting it in the startup.bat will work. Just put MapName=Gateway in your Game.ini under the [/Script/TheIsle.TIGameSession] section.

Any server admins have the powershell script that parses the log file and sends the chat logs to discord via a webhook? I believe I got it from here, but lost it when my server was wiped. I spent several hours going all the way back to 2018 to today to see if there is any mention of it. It could have been from someones custom setup guide that is no longer available on google drive. Thanks in advance everyone!

[golden flare]

For legacy?

[terse tree]

Yes for legacy. It watched the .log file and sent the chats to discord.

[golden flare]

ah that i don't know, but could probably make a script for it

[frozen jewel]

did you solve the problem ? I had the same situation and I had all the ports open, and the game.ini is set up correctly

still not working, and it even show this log

[naive onyx]

If evrima try removing queue enabled from your game.ini it was an issue in the last patch maybe it’s still around

[frozen jewel]

ah, thanks! its stilll around, i delete the bQueueEnabled=true in the game.ini, now its working

[stone jolt]

I removed it, and now it gets past the connecting screen, but then it says an error with the words "isserver=no"

[lament ether]

anyone else... i changed the day and night duration but its not working ..

night is still 1:30h

[terse tree]

One of the dinobot developers made one and released it today actually.

[naive onyx]

Did you port forward and are you hosting on the same machine you are playing on? Your modem needs hairpinning enabled to do that.

Try seeing if someone else can join, or if you can join on another pc

[granite karma]

this is where I'm at as well, not getting anywhere after selecting join server from list.

[faint laurel]

Most likely hairpinning problems for both of you. Every server host guide really needs to include that note.

Hairpinning is a function that allows your network traffic to be redirected internally even when provided an WAN ip address to connect to. The isle server is different in that it advertises your WAN IP for connection to devices on your internal network. Most ISP provided routers don't support this. To verify, have someone outside of your network try and connect to your server, like a friend. If they are able to connect, lack of hairpinning is your problem.

Another thing you can do to test if hairpinning is your issue is run the following command in PowerShell from your connecting computer while your server is running, and your ports are forwarded. :
Test-NetConnection -ComputerName YOUR_PUBLIC_IP_HERE -Port YOUR_SERVER_PORT_HERE
Make sure to use your public (WAN) Ip here, and not your internal (LAN) IP, as that defeats the purpsoe.

If the result is a failure, it means your packet was unable to route itself over your own port forward internally. (Hairpinning)
If the result is a success, then you have another problem.

The solution is to purchase routing equipment that supports REVERSE NAT or Hairpinning if you want to host the server internally.
@granite karma @stone jolt @frozen jewel

[stone jolt]

yeah so i dont think my modem supports hairpinning, but two questions:
1: is there a way i can fix it without spending money? i dont need people joining, i just want a private server that i have admin for
2: probably a dumb question but what if i use a vpn to host the server

why buy cool cars and upgrade them, when you can just get a fancy uber? because its the feeling of owning one

[golden flare]

Just rent a server then, I can give you a nice discount, link in my bio.

Nothing in this world is free, and as kein said, there's a bunch of admin servers around ^^

[stone jolt]

oh my bad. i forgot that hosting your own server isnt possible, and that this ENTIRE CHANNEL is about recommending where to buy servers /s

[stone jolt]

no thanks, i prefer to not hand my credit card to sketchy websites

[golden flare]

Not sure what's sketchy about PayPal but that's fine 😂

[stone jolt]

my bad if i came off as rude lmao, i am in an argument with someone else on discord

[golden flare]

You have your options for hosting your own as well, just buy a new modem then

[stone jolt]

i wish xfinity wasnt so anti-consumerist

[golden flare]

Yeah, sadly wishes doesn't go very far 😅 I have both a free admin server and hosting, so if you wanna spare yourself for a ton of work you can enjoy either of em.

[primal widget]

What is this delirium of fatal ereur? It's my 5th dino that dies because of it, I don't take any pleasure anymore:(

[crystal sierra]

I updated the isle server and it started giving this message

[rare rover]

How would we go about getting unofficial legacy servers authorized to use server mods? I know evrima servers are but legacy hasn't been yet

[final dove]

Server authorization to use mods doesn't exist

[faint laurel]

What's the point in "owning" one if nobody will play on it? I like to host my own servers too, but they are typically servers that can be backed up and used offline. Unfortunately, the Isles Evrima isn't like that at all, and we're still at the mercy of the devs supporting the self hosted infrastructure with dependency on the API.

Meaning self hosting the server doesn't really mean anything besides a higher latency for most players, and reduced uptime compared to managed solutions. All the while, the server will cease to exist and will not be usable if the plug is pulled on the self hosted support. That basically goes against all of the reasons I self host these servers at home. Otherwise, you are just providing a subpar experience to people for no return in a game saturated by dedicated cloud solutions with 99.99% uptime and datacenter network support.

TLDR: Selfhosting Evrima is like renting a fancy uber that will be taken away as soon as the company wants it back, you let others use the uber for free, and in turn the company makes the money. It's just not the same as a fully self hosted solution non reliant on the API to get users connected to you.

[fierce garden]

I have Migration enabled in the game.ini, but for some reason diets still aren't showing up? Migration time is also set to 5400

nvm just had to clear my saved folder lol

[rare rover]

So the server I play on is a partner and they said they won't use mods unless it's expressed that it's allowed through the devs I guess

[final dove]

There is no Isle server partners.
Theres Discord Partner

• Which is two different things. However, us on Asura also have some quality of life mods on.

You won't have the devs coming out saying what they support or not for Legacy. It's basically just in a waiting position to be shut down D:

[rare rover]

Hmmm I'll let them know then ❤️ Thanks for the info!

[final dove]

I'm also the tech guy where you play 😛 so XD

But yeah, time will tell what happens with Legacy!

[rare rover]

Ooooh well that definitely helps. I know they didn't wanna get dinged or anything for playing with mods and wind up losing their evrima server or something like that. Idk I don't know much about it lol

[final dove]

I don't think the devs care enough about legacy anymore.

If anything had to happen to Evrima servers, it would most likely be either Community or Evrima related reasons!

[rare rover]

Alrighty! Well thanks for the info 🙂 hopefully they change their mind about mods because dev colors would be a nice addition 😛 And swimming mechanics

[edgy tundra]

Can anyone help me with my server? It connects and when it starts charging it crashes and gives this message.

[faint laurel]

Probably This @edgy tundra , also no point in removing your IP, as when you start a server it is literally advertised to everyone that pulls up the server list. Would be kind of hard for clients to connect to your server without it.

[edgy tundra]

I realized it's something called CGNAT, I'm in contact with the provider to remove CGNAT and have a public IP address

[winter coral]

Just as some Side info-

I don‘t suggest having a server on ZapHosting. They sell you lifetime servers and cancel it when you’re not logging in onto their website atleast every 3 months because they think you’re dead. Terrible experience and Support tells me there’s nothing they can help me with

[final dove]

I mean, i would almost assume if this was the case - then you would have received some emails you probably never bothered to open? 😄
I doub they will just shut it down, unless they notify you a few times first

I just found this in their terms:

https://i.imgur.com/mcMOXKj.png

[granite karma]

that is great advice, I'll try it! But is hairpinning something new with this more recent patch? Because I've had this server up for many months now without issues.

[faint laurel]

If it worked before and you haven't changed any hardware or where it's hosted then hairpinning probably isn't your issue. What changed when things broke?

[granite karma]

the new update with the new server ini settings

[granite karma]

NAT might not be completely ruled out for me, because I tried on another computer with my hotspot and in the list the server showed a ping of ~100, (but still hung at Connecting....). Where as connecting to the same network as the server running has 0. Also the netconnect command failed on the server. But in looking into the network routers it says NAT/Hairpinning/Loopback is always enabled as of an older firmware/patch, so 🤷‍♂️

if it helps here are my current server settings, literally just copied and pasted them from the patch notes, little to no changes yet

[naive onyx]

Remove bQueueEnabled=true and retry

[tough ember]

Shouldnt have queue enabled without having set the port for it 👀

[winter coral]

I know that already but thank you.

It‘s still not okay in my opinion. Should read AGB‘s but they Hid it in there on purpose - you‘ll find this info nowhere else if you are going to buy a life time server.
I don‘t really check my e-mails, it‘s full of spam and nothing important 🤷🏻‍♂️
Important things i‘ll expect to come with the actual Mail post.
Once you notice that they scrapped the Server you MSG them/their Support and literally they will tell you theres nothing they can do.

No % off for a new Product, your Server is permanently gone no matter how many hundred Euros you putted into it.

If you read the AGB you‘re fine unless you are like 3 months in a Hospital but it still seems like they want you to not read the AGB so they can collect the server back and your Money

[granite karma]

this seemed to have worked!!! Thank you!!! Also simply setting it to false didn't work, I had to remove it entirely.

[naive onyx]

No problem, as Spacekeks mentioned if you wanna use the queue feature you might try adding QueuePort=9998

Does anyone know a good and easy to understand guide on how to setup a windows server for The Isle Evirma branch on windows 11?

How many cores can the isle uses on a server?

[random gorge]

Need help, I got the server setup to where my friends and I are able to see it but we aren't able to join..

[quasi shadow]

Forward your ports correctly

[faint laurel]

Yeah selling lifetime server access for dedicated hosting that typically cost 15-40$ a month is not a profitable business if there wasn't some exceptions. It's a given that there would be some catch somewhere, and anytime you see a deal that's probably too good to be true, like "lifetime" server hosting, you should be skeptical. There's almost no such as lifetime server access for a set price. They won't give you a % for a new Product or any refund because the customers that spend money like yourself and then only use a few months are basically what allows them them to sell to people who keep logging in so cheaply and support the business model. It sucks because people do forget, and don't read the terms. I personally wouldn't do business with them.

[random gorge]

ports are already forwarded I believe.

Or did I mess something up in the files?

So I made some progress.

I removed bQueue and I was able to get into the loading screen but I got this upon connecting.

[random gorge]

Could someone lend a hand? I double checked the ports and everything should be right I think but I keep getting this error when trying to join.

[random gorge]

the server shows up for us and we are able to go into the bluish loading screen but it then gives this error.

[tough ember]

Try turning bRconEnabled to false, im curios bout something

[random gorge]

Sure, give me a sec

okay switched back to the router I was on previously.

Gonna try that now.

loading up the server @tough ember

[tough ember]

Might have to let one of your buddies connect tho, sounds like you're hosting on your pc, so you won't be able to connect unless your router has hairpinning, described here sorta #server-hosting message

[random gorge]

Could you try joining? they are all offline right now.

Server name is APEX [EVIRMA]

gonna try that command in that post real quick as well

[tough ember]

Doesn't work^^ Idk what it is then 😅

[random gorge]

did I enter this in wrong?

[tough ember]

Power Shell I think, not cmd

[random gorge]

https://canyouseeme.org/ using this site it appears it isn't seeing the port?

[random gorge]

your right, worked in powershell.

the result is this

[tough ember]

Not a pro when it comes to ports, you'll have to figure that one out, or someone else might know

[random gorge]

Well thank you for trying.

[tough ember]

Good luck

[random gorge]

thank you.

[winter coral]

I‘m kind of Over it but i wanted to tell fellow gamers(and (potentially)server owners) about it and that i don‘t suggest it out of personal experience, server was also laggy at times especially on Evrima.
I‘m curious about legality in Switzerland and Germany about it but else, i‘m over with it.

Aslong you are willing to log into their website ATLEAST every 3 months you‘re good with their Lifetime servers ( which are priced basic at 100$, changing to other games/adding more games to the server costs 20$ extra for each game and remember, 100$ is really just basic.)

You could play all the time on the server but aslong you‘re not going to log into the website, they‘ll delete it permanently.

Any suggestions for Hoster? I‘m sure i know most of them but i haven‘t been using anything else than ZAP the last 6 years or so..

It should be noted that the server does not appear after the second capture

Most errors you see in this console isn't related for you - or an actual "error" in some cases

If the server works, and the load map does say complete - so if it works, leave it be 😛

Oh, my bad. I understood it wrong!

Have you open up ports on your router (not just the windows firewall) ? Because thats essential for it to show!

Hard to help without any information of how your server is set up, if port's are being forwareded, if others can see it etc, Some log information.
If you are hosting yourself or rented it

it wont get an EOS connection

[quasi shadow]

Because the config ships with 'unofficial' in the name lol

[final dove]

Most likely to force people to namechange the servers

Just as a general to avoid the overlaps

[quasi shadow]

Most likely an oversight in the regex match tbh, which is why I posted it

Why would you ship a broken config, that's stupid

[unique osprey]

good day i have the problem when i start my evrima server that it just closes the start.bat when loading the map. please help

add pause
to the bottom of your batch file and it'll freeze your console before closing

Your error isn't listed there though, probably need to look in your actual log file for 'error' or something

[final dove]

II straight on think it's on purpose, so you don't have a situation where 500 ppl have an identical named server because they didn't set up their ini

[quasi shadow]

But I renamed mine and still got an error... It's obviously not intentional, just a bad reg ex like I said.

[unique osprey]

then these must be the errors

If you're experiencing issues with hairpinning while trying to connect to your server, it's best to explore solutions that support reverse NAT or hairpinning in your routing equipment. This would allow your network traffic to be redirected internally even when provided with a WAN IP address to connect to. You can verify if hairpinning is the issue by running a command in PowerShell from a connecting computer while your server is running and your ports are forwarding.

Here's a sample command to run in PowerShell:

powershell
Test-NetConnection -ComputerName YOUR_PUBLIC_IP_HERE -Port YOUR_SERVER_PORT_HERE
Make sure to use your public (WAN) IP address here, and not your internal (LAN) IP address, as that would defeat the purpose.

If the result is a failure, it means your packet was unable to route itself internally over your own port forward (indicating hairpinning issues). If the result is a success, then you may have another issue.

The solution would be to purchase routing equipment that supports reverse NAT or hairpinning if you plan to host the server internal to your network.

Has anyone been able to get the in-game discord button to work when clicking on a server's discord button? I've been trying to get it to work with a valid invite to our community's server by putting in a line-ServerDiscord=https://discord.com/invite/[invite-code-here]-inside the game.ini file, but no luck yet. My server is on a Linux server as well, not Windows. Something I would like to do instead of putting it in the name, and keeping it neat. Would any <@&818552355796287508> members be able to help?

• Also, does anyone know where I can find a full list of Evrima script/command lines for server config files?

[tough ember]

That discord link thing doesn't work in evrima, far as I'm aware.

[pale harness]

thanks

[pale harness]

Every time I do click on it, it sends me here to the official discord. I had just thought I could plug in a link to redirect players to my community when they click on the server's discord button.

[naive onyx]

Only works in legacy afaik

[faint laurel]

You just put the invite code at the end of the url, nothing else. If you try the whole URL, it won't work

[pale harness]

you have an example format, for the whole line?

[gaunt spruce]

The discord invite link attribute cannot be modified right now.

Also, more specifics on script/command lines?
The Game.ini file format is occasionally in patch notes some older versions of it are in this channel (just search game.ini). Engine.ini is pretty much the same other than the ability to add lines to enable/disable certain logs. If you're wanting to know more RCON commands then those are all present in the RCON Communication Protocol Google Doc.

[pale harness]

Cool. Thanks for the info!

[crystal sierra]

Does anyone know what this error means?

it just closes after that

[keen merlin]

✨ It's The Isle ✨

[final dove]

doesnt work in legacy either XD

[faint laurel]

It works, but you have to format it correctly. I had reported a vulnerability where someone could change the URL to a file path instead and open a file on the users computer. They updated it so that it only accepts an invite code after that.

How much ram should I have in a server for The Isle - Evirma? plan is to have around 20 active people now and around +50 active later on.

[wheat pulsar]

Umm you don’t need a whole lot I would at least put 16 min “I run a lot of cores and max ram for all of my servers but I have my own server rack”. for new server and as you grow I would apply more if needed just set up tasks to restart your server ever 6 hours is what I do to keep fps high and to stop any memory problems but other than that you should be good

[random gorge]

aight thanks. I am going to rent a 16GB RAM server from Bisect because unfortunately my current ISP is blocking the ability to port-forward.

Originally planned to host some servers on my main computer since it has a 7950x3D and 2x32GB of ram.

[golden flare]

Pretty sure minimum now to load the map is about 10gb then it drops to 8-9 somewhat. With 21 players on mine uses 9gb ram and half a core

[wheat pulsar]

@random gorge np best of luck 🤞

[random gorge]

Gotcha. I plan to get the 16GB package from bisect.

[random gorge]

How well does The Isle utilize multiple cores or is it like Ark:SE where it can only use 1-2 logical cores.

[stray fjord]

Hello, I am interested in a bot service for The Isle server for commands.

[random gorge]

I just rented a server from Bisect for The Isle.

Can someone show or tell me how to setup a restart schedule for my server like on Official where it says Restarting in 5m etc?

[random gorge]

Am I unable to enable humans on Gateway?

[tough ember]

Can't be enabled currently, yes

[golden flare]

You'll need a bot for that

[sacred plover]

why 1grow not working on me

!grow

[naive onyx]

it's /grow or use the admin panel (insert)

if evrima

[velvet pumice]

new update, if enter admin mode, game will crash immediately

[tough ember]

Try in latest update that just dropped

[hearty wind]

what's a good server hosting service for The Isle?

[velvet pumice]

thx~

[random gorge]

I am enjoying Bisect so far.

[random gorge]

I have the MEE6 bot, will that work?

[hearty wind]

Thank you for letting me know! I appreciate your time. How much r u paying and how many slots?

I tried the game last night.. but most servers are full x.x

[random gorge]

So I bought their 16GB ram package. All Isle Packages have unlimited slots, unlimited storage. I am paying $32/mo.

Their prices are reasonable compared to others, servers are decent, though what I like is that their custom support is the best I've used.

[golden flare]

would probably have to be custom

[random gorge]

May I ask why a bot is needed to accomplish this? and also how would one do this?

[golden flare]

you can check out my hosting site in my bios if you'd like

[golden flare]

Needs to be done through RCON, you can either do it yourself or pay someone like me to set it up for you

[random gorge]

Gotcha.

[steel mauve]

Hi people i can't seem to find any reliable source concerning the game.ini file for servers on evrima and what the commands actually do does someone has a source ?

[random gorge]

do all admin commands need to be done through RCON?

[golden flare]

No, all of em are done through the admin panel ingame, but for automatic announcements/restart warnings you'll need a bot

[sacred plover]

!grow

[random gorge]

Where can I find a complete list of commands and config options for The Isle Evrima?

[naive onyx]

admin panel (insert)

[random gorge]

Where do I find the console in the panel? I press insert but I do not see any console to put commands in besides maybe the announce thing?

[naive onyx]

all things you need are in the admin panel without needing to enter commands "grow, heal, goto teleport" etc.

in terms of commands try /help as an admin in chat idk if it still works in evrima

[tough ember]

Evrima currently has no / commands, there's some shown in chat when you type /, but not working/implemented, its all done over the Admin Panel.
And yes automatic announcements/restart warnings are done over a bot by using RCON #server-hosting message

[stone totem]

What is the RAM recommended for 100 slots?

And is Bisect trustworthy? I currently use G-portal and they’ve been great but Bisect is cheaper..

[random gorge]

ahh thank you for answering this.

[random gorge]

If I am reading this correctly is there currently no way to grow someone through a bot using those RCON protocols?

[stone totem]

Does it run good? No crashes? I used Shockbyte and it ALWAYS crashed.. now I use G-portal and it’s amazing but Bisect seems a lot cheaper!

[random gorge]

Yeah, we haven't had any lag so far.

We had around 12 people on all at south plains a couple days ago and give or take 60 corpses scattered about there.

[stone totem]

Nice! Thanks 😁 When I hosted through Shockbyte, it would crash like every 20 minutes and I was like 😑

[random gorge]

Yeah I used to use shockbyte as well.

It was a hectic experience.

Personally I really enjoy Bisect. reasonable prices, decent machines, and good customer support.

[stone totem]

Amazing thank you!

[random gorge]

My experience with Apex hosting was hit and miss.

[crystal sierra]

is the bitrate of the isle evrima servers 30?

[tough ember]

Tick rate/SFPS is 30 max

[random gorge]

How do I clear corpses on my server.

[visual flax]

anyone know a discord bot code i can use for my server? where it announces restarts etc

[random gorge]

May I ask what programming language you use for such bots?

[golden flare]

JS

[random gorge]

Node.JS I am assuming?

Wondering because I want to learn the language needed to develop bots for games.

May I also ask which Library?

[golden flare]

Yeah just plain old javascript, but you can use python as well, also a popular language for discord bots

[random gorge]

Which would you recommend I learn for bot development? I am working towards a being a full-stack engineer. In the meantime I want to learn the language needed to make a bot that will automate grows and such for my Evrima server.

[golden flare]

I prefer javascript/typescript for discord bots, but when you've learned one language, the other ones are pretty easy to learn

[random gorge]

I have some experience with basic JS and basic PHP.

[golden flare]

Feel free to dm me if you have any coding questions and I can point you in the right direction

[random gorge]

Will learning Node.JS do the job I need for a bot to automate grows? What I want to do is setup a bot where after someone links their steamid they can use /grow to grow whatever dino they currently have.

[random gorge]

Thank you! I really appreciate that.

[sacred plover]

!grow

[random gorge]

?

[sacred plover]

lol

sorry thegrow was not workng for me

is not

[ocean swallow]

Does anyone know why my dedicated server will work fine for a few days and then from nowhere it will start to crash after it starts up?

Only fix i've found is reinstalling it all over again

but it's strange because i don't change absolutely anything from the server and from one day to another it will start to fail

[steady yacht]

Evrima RCON does not offer grow support. You can find all the commands RCON offers here #server-hosting message

[gray fjord]

is "LogTemp: Error: MAP LOAD COMPLETE" supposed to be red

my server loads and everything seems fine but joining does not work

you just get stuck forever "connecting"

all relevant ports are open

[gray fjord]

I can confirm NAT loopback also works. I am stumped

[sacred plover]

!grow not wokring for me why>??

[random gorge]

Ahh damn. Any ideas when they might add grow to the list of rcon commands? Also does that mean there is currently no way to automate grows?

[tough ember]

Why are you asking that in the server-hosting troubleshoot channel

[golden flare]

No worries, I've sent you a dm

[narrow locust]

what is the minimum RAM for server host the isle?

[tough ember]

On evrima an empty server uses around 9.2GB on windows, so you probs want around 12 perhaps, no clue about legacy version

[random gorge]

10GB, 11-12 with around 20 players.

[steady yacht]

I would always aim for at least 16 gb of ram minimum

[clear python]

Does anyone know how to solve it?

[clear python]

I'm having the same problem on three different machines, one with Windows Server 2019, another with Windows Server 2022 and a notebook with Windows Server 2022, they show the same error

[terse tree]

So if I am understanding this correctly, if you have the LogTemp: Error: MAP LOAD COMPLETE your pretty much stuck. ?

[golden flare]

No, errors don't really mean anything, as long as the server continues to run then you're fine

[terse tree]

cool.

[terse tree]

I put my steam64 id in the game.ini under [/script/theisle.tigamestatebase] using AdminSteamIDs=xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I started the server and connected, but can't get the admin menu to load. Am I missing something?

[tough ember]

Evrima? What button are you pressing to try and open it Should be Insert by default

[terse tree]

I figured it out. Somehow it got set to cmd. All good now.

[tough ember]

👍

[crystal sierra]

the isle evrima is not working on windows server?

[steel mauve]

Hi guys does anyone know how to put a grow multiplier on an evrima server ?

[tough ember]

Put GrowthMultiplier=1 for example in the [/Script/TheIsle.TIGameSession] section of your Game.ini, replace the 1 with your value.

[steel mauve]

is there a source for all those code lines ?

[silver wadi]

@tough emberhow do you find where we can get the commands/lines of code

[tough ember]

@steel mauve @silver wadi the last patch notes included an example https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/376210/view/4212631128516705190

[silver wadi]

I love YOU spacekeks ❤️ 💕 ❤️

[tough ember]

good luck lol

[digital owl]

how do i get in the server

[velvet pumice]

me too

[hazy idol]

What should I do if when logging into the server it says that data acquisition failed?

[dapper kindle]

Does anyone knows what this error means? <@&818552355796287508>

[final dove]

Nothing

[stray fjord]

Hello, does anyone know why every time I get the LogTemp: Error: Load map complete it consumes so much Ram to the point of running out of it, I clarify that this did not happen to me on my dedicated server but on this one which is per host it does.

[tough ember]

that "error" is normal, but you might just need more ram, 10 is dangerously low, as on an empty server it takes about 9.2 GB already

[ocean swallow]

I have a dedicated server on my own pc and it uses around 7gb of ram, but we tried hosting a server on this website and even with 32gb of ram, it uses all of the ram and it crashes, like a memory leak, once the server starts, it will start to consume all of the ram and crash

[tough ember]

Does the site use the linux server version by chance?

[ocean swallow]

Yes

[ocean swallow]

does linux causes this?

[tough ember]

Goood question, never had that on windows, so maybe

[tough ember]

Someone might have to test that and make a bug report if true, personally don't have a linux system to test on

[snow nacelle]

Global chat does not seem to be working, it is only showing spatial.

[tough ember]

It's bEnableGlobalChat=true under [/Script/TheIsle.TIGameSession] in the Game.ini

[snow nacelle]

thank you, that made it work!

[sacred skiff]

Hello guys !
I try to install the isle server, i launch the server with the .bat but i have just 1 .ini file, anybody know the problem, i dont have game.ini, engine.ini and more 👀 ?

[tough ember]

Heyo, in theory letting the server run for a minute or so and then closing it by hitting ctrl+c in the server window should generate the files

[sacred skiff]

Thanks 😉

How we know how the server start because i dont see my server and i dont know if its running correctly

Because i have this

[tough ember]

I'd just try letting it run for bout a minute and then ctrl+c close it, see if the files generate.
If not you could always just manually create them. The link has an example for a Game.ini at the top https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/376210/view/4212631128516705190 and I've attached the Engine.ini I use, if you have the [EpicOnlineServices] stuff in your .bat file already, then just delete the top part of the Engine.ini attached

[sacred skiff]

I put now but same..

[tough ember]

You have the Game.ini in ..TheIsle\Saved\Config\WindowsServer ?

[sacred skiff]

Sure

I put the config you send in steam link 😉

[tough ember]

Oh add MapName=Gateway to the [/Script/TheIsle.TIGameSession] section

[sacred skiff]

I put and restart but not launch 🤔

[tough ember]

Something is wrong with where you placed the configs perhaps, it shouldn't say Maps/Entry in the log

[sacred skiff]

Its in windowsserver folder and i put on TIGameSession part

[tough ember]

At that point im just confused lol, make sure you change the RCON password tho, also remove the description parts behind the configs such as - Set in minutes

[sacred skiff]

Okay haha i change rcon passwd and comments part

[tough ember]

It keeps loading the wrong map for him, even after giving him my Game.ini and it's in the right path, pure confusion Maybe someone else knows 👀

[prime shell]

Is there capability to utilize the admin panel from the server console? Or do you have to use the IG admin panel?

[tough ember]

Besides some RCON things like Ban, Announcements etc. it's all ingame

[runic sierra]

does the RCON kick command work now?

[tough ember]

How do you mean? It works on the current live patch, input has to be EOS_ID, KickReason

[runic sierra]

I didn't try it out I just heard it didn't work

I only use ban

[tough ember]

Ah gotcha 😄

[steel bough]

help

when im looking for a server all it shows are chinese server

[runic sierra]

you're probably on legacy

[runic sierra]

What is the link to the RCOn documentation again?

the google drive link

haven't used that in ages

ah nvm it's pinned

[tough ember]

Was bouta write that
Needs some updating tho in some aspects, main thing is tho that kick/ban use EOSID, and you need a reason after the EOSID when using kick

[runic sierra]

since when does ban use EOSID?

Kick Player – Kicks a player by eos id.
Ban player – Bans a player by eos id.

even the screenshot shows steam id

🙄

[tough ember]

Ye screenshot is a bit outdated^^

[runic sierra]

but ban on current build uses steam id

[tough ember]

In my testing, if I use SteamID for ban, then the user doesn't get kicked, but the ban works, after they leave themselves. When using EOSID it does kick them as well

[runic sierra]

This is really bad actually depending on playerlist to get the EOS like that to issue a ban

while the logs show steam ids

[tough ember]

Log shows both

[runic sierra]

only on connection

[tough ember]

It doesn't change, just like a SteamID, far as I've observed, so having it once per SteamID should be fine

[runic sierra]

I guess i will automap the eosid to steam id in my db upon connection so that my admins can easily issue bans via steam ids but it sucks to have it this way

I'm just wondering when did that change to eosid

[tough ember]

I don't remember tbh, I'm just a bug hunter

[runic sierra]

this is the result of a ban using the EOS id (which kicked the person from the server)

she can come back in the server and the generated json looks like this

{
    "bannedPlayerData": [
        {
            "steamId": "00020d0ada4a40f1a7b63ce2afd0efef",
            "playerName": "00020d0ada4a40f1a7b63ce2afd0efef",
            "banReason": "Ban with paired EOS",
            "bannedTime": "2024.06.03-17.37.41",
            "endBanTime": "2032.01.11-11.37.41",
            "bannerName": "Rcon",
            "bannerSteamId": "Rcon"
        }
    ]
}

wtf lol

[tough ember]

Odd I can't rejoin after I test ban myself like that.

Is the test person an Admin? They bypass bans.

[runic sierra]

ah

yeah she was admin

that's new

it used to not matter

[tough ember]

Case solved

[runic sierra]

well that json could definately use some love

steamId: epicId

playerName: epicId

will check if it resolve the issue

Yeah that was the issue

I have no idea when this was changed. Ages ago I had a free admin server and people kept banning each others all the time

https://tenor.com/view/vietnam-flashback-traumatized-cat-gif-7852054576948114551

@golden flare something you might be happy to learn

Admins can no longer ban each others apparently

or at least the ban is not in effect when rejoining

[golden flare]

That's interesting, we haven't had any issues with that so far, we do remove their admin the second they kick or ban someone though

[lapis turret]

Does anyone know of any bots that can be used for evrima to give players dinosaurs or store them ? I know some servers that do this and just wondering if there is a bot for it

[runic sierra]

As far as I know they have a bunch of encryption in place to prevent most automations that actually temper with the save files.

You will need to run your own store and either automate a bot to interact in-game or have admins manually doing operations

[lapis turret]

Ive played on a server that lets you use a bot to store a dino thats all, just curious to how that could be done

[runic sierra]

custom software

I'm working on my own system of converting dinos into vouchers for redeeming and exchanging / trading (no real money or "economy" involved)

Pretty much every solutions out there will have some level of manual interactions involved. Some are almost fully manual. Some a little bit. You could fully automate it using a bot inside your game server but knowing how this game performs from an admin point of view it seems highly unreliable

[lapis turret]

would ur bot be up for use? like for people outside your server?

[runic sierra]

No sorry it's exclusive

[lapis turret]

So baso they dont want competition?

[final dove]

Probably just want a reason for ppl to play on their server more etc, get ahead of the curve

If it ever becomes a norm in Evrima, we'll do the same on Asura; kinda in an idea like Poutine is making (not fully identical)

[runic sierra]

What do you mean? You mean isle devs saying they wanna get rid of "modding"? As far as I know they just don't wanna see things like injecting growths for $ and pay2win stuff like that.

[runic sierra]

The redeeming is the issue on evrima since all the saves are encrypted

The solutions i'm aware either involve admins somewhere in the process or have a computer connected on the server doing oprations automatically in the admin panel which is super unreliable and prone to abuse

[runic sierra]

This is something I weighed. The amount of hours you spend into developing good and reliable professional grade software vs the amount of real potential "clients" willing to pay a decent license fee on such a niche game is completely unbalanced. My software is technically multi server ready (if I open my NA server again), if I was gonna sell license keys for it there are probably realistically like 3-4 potential real clients out there at most.

There is absoutely zero interest in selling 1 month license keys once in a while to failed servers that will never take off. Running a server on this game is a zero sum game and the few servers that survive are competing for the minuscule pool of potential players out there

Having the unofficial servers buried in a different hidden list and plagued with frequent server list issues because the server list is never tested properly for unofficials also doens't help for new players discovery

[final dove]

Yeah, I resold some older versions of my bots, and the interest was "OK" but then everyone expects something different.

Then you witness the server dying after a week, or they don't even know themselves what kind of server they want to run to be competitive in the market, and they just disappear, and still have them open after 3 years with 0 players.
and from own experience, having sold probably 20 different injection, logbots etc - everyone wants it different and its just hard to find something that satifies the "broader market?" for it to sometimes be worth.

Licenses could be cool, but idk. Its kinda cool having something that makes your server unique than having to "re-sell" it to others though yeah.

[runic sierra]

I mean my whole thing is a build as one big monolitic (but modular each features can be configured on a per server basis) and run with license keys

except currently there's only a single license out there

no 2 with my dev server

[final dove]

Ah yeah, that always could be something

then at least people can adjust things here and there on their own terms

[runic sierra]

I would not sell indivdual small bots and if I did it would be a "take it as it is I don't care use it the way I tell you"

It's not like they have much choices out there

how many evrima bots are there?

[final dove]

No idea, i havent begun mine yet.
I had initially one, but havent continued since we havent gone into Evrima properly yet

[runic sierra]

I saw "storage bots" which are stricly only a store procedure within discord and have absolutely nothing to do with evrima servers

and everything is done manually by admins

[final dove]

I think in general theres only some with storage bots tbh

[runic sierra]

I know zooming islander uses a computer clicking in the admin panel with scripts in-game

[final dove]

Then theres the external rcon tools people make

[runic sierra]

but this admin panel is so buggy I don't see a way where this must not be completely unreliable

[final dove]

But i strolled accross github yesterday, theres not really anything tbh, basically close to 0 public on there

[runic sierra]

yeah there is one out there but it looks like it was written by a guy who did 3 coding tutorials on youtube

i wrote my own solution

[final dove]

The good old, make a virtual robot in NodeJS with RobotJS or something, make it move the mouse around to click things based on callbacks gg

then server crashes, or pc restart and you have to make a full login routine with this robot, and screen reading for player names to see if online / offline to grow etc

[runic sierra]

that's what I use for my remote controlled cameras along with a controller emulator

[final dove]

aye it was what i would do as well if i had to do injections

[runic sierra]

I mean

I don't know about legacy

[final dove]

Legacy just has files available

Evrima had it in the start too, before they encrypted them D:

[runic sierra]

but admin commands are beyond buggy when a server is loaded

so writing any sort of scripts that you rely on just seems like a terrible buggy mess

on an emtpy server it might feel like it works fine

Also easy to abuse

spawn as a deino et get grown with a 100% dryo save

[final dove]

Not for legacy at least, we sit on 500pop and they are fine.

Theres no panel per say, so its just commands. But lets say /slay has no ID function, so if you have 5 players named Poutine

I love poutine
Pout
Poutine
Poutine Italienne

And you do /slay pout its a rng rollator between all of these

very nice

kick and ban ofc has a id function 😐

[runic sierra]

the rcon is reliable on evrima

I mean doing stuff that is not supported by the rcon you cannot edit the save files

you're stucked with doing robot.js scripts for the admin panel which is notoriously buggy when there's like 130+ players online

[final dove]

Aye, we had some following on evrima when they launched panels, 3 full server with 100 slots at the time. But we stopped focusing on evrima at all, since we are just kinda waiting and Evrima at that point seemed like

People join on patch, 2 weeks later they go back to legacy (at that time)

so we just stayed in legacy atm

[runic sierra]

Yeah it's 2 different games

if I would launch a legacy server it would be dead on arrival

people don't move over

[final dove]

yeah its kinda rough

[runic sierra]

people left on legacy will die with it lol

[final dove]

we also sit with 50k disc users just from legacy, so its .. Tbh, i think its just a nostalgie

But i think the real issue also comes from.

If you as a big Evrima Server, and us as a big Legacy server - yadda yadda, lets say hypotethically, at some point are the two biggest Evrima servers in future.
Then we both do RobotJS for all these injected growths etc

How long will it take for gamedevs to just remove the growth option from panel

[runic sierra]

And thank god because when there's a patch on Evrima and they come over for a few days they are unbearable

[final dove]

Then we cock all servers in existance

[runic sierra]

good luck dealing with them lol

[runic sierra]

I don't think they would if there are no monetary exchanges

Their issues is selling grown dinos

[final dove]

I die inside when i see people sell growth for money.

like actual usd

50€ for a spino

[runic sierra]

I don't think they give a damn if you automate a storing system where people can't purchase injected dinos out of thin air with real or fake money

@hoary cave

Would be good to get an official statement on that if tempering with the encrypted save files (is it even possible lol) is forbidden or if it's the monetary exchange that is not allowed / frown upon

[final dove]

We had this convo a few times, its always good fun

They aren't a fan, but Dondi said publically on his stream "If people are willing to pay money for a dinosaur, and is so stupid to do so, its their own fault"

or something in these terms

[runic sierra]

I think selling dinos that are made up out of thin air devalues the worth of every other dinos on your server to begin with

same as running the printing press

devalues your money

Or having a growth rate too fast

I just finished last night my storage / redeem & gifting system last night. It's an entirely closed system you get booted off the server and your save file is deleted from the server the only thing that remain or your dino is a secret voucher code that you can redeem or gift / trade with someone
https://youtu.be/XQteaBVWVUA

Voucher codes can only be created in exchange of deleting a save file and they can't be purchased in anyway. Meaning 1 voucher code = 1 dino of that specie that was grown in a legit manner to be used at a later time by someone

[final dove]

aye our system on Legacy has gone wild.
A rex is 80k points, but you get like

1k per minute played ingame
you get a 50% increase if you have below a million every friday on disc (just adds up balance)
you get points from talking on disc, being ingame
We have a quest system, where you can buy a dino, do a command on disc, grow a dino ingame (also gives points worth of the dino)
selling system so you can sell your dino you grew for 50% of the price
all our inhouse games on disc also gives points.
daily roulettes of millions
daily payouts 2 times

Hell you get points by just living there.

And our system is so broken the top dude is sitting on like 300 billion points

So we just kinda gave up on it

We also had a page with vouchers on, and coupon codes people could use for free dinos whenever they wanted too

But our most popular server today, is a "Non bot server" .. As in no injections buys etc, growth buys..

just actual growing as you would normally, but you can still request free juvi dinos, and inventory them ofc

[runic sierra]

yeah but your issue here is that you have an economy attatched to it. At least in my opinon. I wanted to do a purely closed system where you can only create a voucher in exchange of a real dino in game and not purchase them with real or fake money

If you redeem a voucher you know somebody took the time of growing that dino for its "time value"

[final dove]

That is true, but our economy (unlike other servers) isn't tied to people buying those points in that sense.

So theres like

Free inject servers
Servers (US) where they toss virtual points into your face, you can use for free for buys etc

Servers who needs you to buy points with USD
Servers where you need to buy donator roles to even get points to get dinos
Servers who only sells dinos on purchase with USD

The big issue for me is the three below, where its actual money gated - and i think thats a real douche move

We had our exchange system, with vouchers free dinos on arrival, voucher in exchange for dinos

Admins just forgot to use it, and it ended up dying out.

However, we did do a "Free rex for everyone using this code"
and then they could redeem it within 2 years.

We had 20k people going in using the code at same time, so our DB system just went woop max connection goodbye, instead of pooling through the cycle lol

[runic sierra]

That is a lot of bloated crap 😅

But I guess free growths work to attract people

[final dove]

It just really tilts me when people involve real money into being the only way for you to enjoy a server.

So if you are able to create this voucher system, it could be cool!

[runic sierra]

yeah it works fine people started using it this morning

[final dove]

So what you do is people take their own dinosaurs, and make it a voucher of some sort?

[runic sierra]

Yeah so I detect their dino in-game and boot them off the server and delete the corresponding save file from the server in exchange of a generated voucher code holding the specie value

which has an expiration date

then they are free to use their voucher code to redeem it when they please or give it away / exchange it as long as it's not against any monetary compensation

There are more stuff involved like cooldowns on storing and some commands to check a code validity or view their storage and how many vouchers they can hold in their storage simultaneously but that's the general idea

This stego code is still valid btw if you want a full stego on my server

it's mine lol

[lapis turret]

@runic sierraAll ima say is, big pat on the back for you because ive seen ur bot and ur server and its something the isle needs in the community server frl. I wish the devs helped server hosts more and gave them more tools without sacrificing secuirty like secret dinos etc. Congrats on the dino storage 🙂

[runic sierra]

Thanks!

Well filipe has been quite helpful in setting up the RCON stuff for the dino classes toggling which I rely on for my automated population control

[worn plume]

are there any channels for finding servers?

[golden flare]

#unofficial-isle-communities

[lapis turret]

do you think saving player mutations will be a thing though? because when giving players their grow back will they get the mutations they got as well if they were nested in is kinda my big question

[runic sierra]

Can't know until we see it but no

I don't think so

in an ideal world I would save the actual save file for later and allow players to swap save files even if they are encrypted (you don't need to temper with the content of the save files) but somehow even that has some extra check on the server which I don't understand too much why

[velvet pumice]

Yes, a playerdata save can't be saved by copying it to one place and then pasting it back in when the player needs to restore it, indeed the server will do an extra check, and if the player is on a dino that isn't of the corresponding species, then the playerdata save will be corrupted when it pasted back.

If it's feasible to copy the playerdatasave somewhere else, and then copy it back when the player needs it, then it's very easy to make an access dino bot, and a recovery bot as well.****

[runic sierra]

I have tried to copy and restore saves without tempering with its content and the server always corrupted them anyway

You come back on menu screen

[velvet pumice]

yea, The main thing is that the server log does not show all the status of the player's dinosaurs, such as blood, satiety and other information, if there is this information, like LEGACY can make a conditionally limited storage of the dino BOT, now the EVRIMA server log display information is too limited, for the rules of the server, some of the violations are not easy to determine!

[runic sierra]

I get why they did that I guess legacy servers went overboard with bloated pay2win garbage but this also handicap legit devs who just want to build cool stuff for community servers

I guess some of these people will resolve to hacking their own server by replacing binaries and stuff like that

[velvet pumice]

Even the admin view doesn't have as much information about the player as it used to, the admin view used to be able to see the player's water and stomach, now you can't see it

[runic sierra]

I have never played legacy let alone admin it

I think for the most part the in-game and in panel give decent info except its super unreliable when Server is full

But the way 3rd party software can interact with evrima servers is severely lacking and limited

[velvet pumice]

Yes, the officials may have their own considerations, and I can understand the officials, but for the rules server, some of the essential information of the players can only be viewed through the administrative perspective, or not very convenient, not to mention that there are two less information that can be viewed now

[golden flare]

They probably did the whole save thing to prevent people to inject dinos that aren't supposed to be playable yet and such

[runic sierra]

Perhaps. I'd lean more torward making selling growths obsolete but it hasn't worked

[golden flare]

People always find a way. Personally i don't really see the problem, people will play on the servers that they find fun anyways

[runic sierra]

In any case I would think saving a savefile from the server for a later time and restoring it should be a simple operation

[velvet pumice]

I wonder if the official GROW command for RCON will be made

[runic sierra]

I don't think so

[golden flare]

Now that you can alter growth rate, people can grow pretty quickly anyways

[runic sierra]

I think the server falls apart after 40x but yeah

[velvet pumice]

I know, but it's service-wide, and I want to do it for personal player.

[runic sierra]

I'm pretty sure if they come up with TOS it will ressemble something like pot which forbids faster growth rate, growths for monetary compensation

Which is fine I think

[golden flare]

yeah but 40x is pretty decent. Wish they'd just do like Arma or some of the other fun games, make a good platform and let the players develop mods, gamemods etc. and people will have fun for years

[velvet pumice]

Does EVRIMA now have a way to access the server directly via IP?

[runic sierra]

Hmmm well you can connect with the rcon but it's barebone or you mean connecting in game?

If so no

[velvet pumice]

yes, just connecting in game

[runic sierra]

Also the favourite servers list is a lousy string save. So if someone impersonate your server they will show up as favourite lol. Why they didn't use some ID or ip address instead? Who knows

[velvet pumice]

to join server

[runic sierra]

Not that I know of

[velvet pumice]

i mean by connectsteam.me

Make a button, they click on it and it will launch STEAM directly and go to the corresponding server, some servers in LEGACY have this feature, I guess EVRIMA is not available

[golden flare]

They're using epic servers and not steam

[velvet pumice]

oh, i see....

[idle bloom]

i just went on the Spiro beta build and found no active nor any official servers, is it just currently down or is Spiro unavailable for now?

[tough ember]

Spiro branch no longer has official server, they're all on Gateway (evrima branch). There's only 2-3 unofficials ones, but usually completely empty, sometimes u gotta refresh multiple times.

[idle bloom]

alright, thank you

[pine matrix]

Yeah I like spiro better but no one plays it for some reason

[runic sierra]

That is one big chunk for my storage system that I just deployed. Since we don't sell dinos or generate them any dino voucher is a real dino that was grown on the server by a player but I built a whole secure trade exchange for players to trade their vouchers securely without ever revealing the codes to avoid typical scam crap. Also trading is the only way you can hold more than 1 dino per specie in your storage. I really look forward to see for what adult diablos will trade for when the patch is out. Probably multiple dinos for a diablo

[ocean swallow]

Why is throwing me this error when the file is literally there?

"Can't find entry point in the procedure SetThreadDescription"

[crystal sierra]

Are you using Windows Server 2016?

[ocean swallow]

Yes, it's a vps

[crystal sierra]

I have a dell r610 that has this same problem, I formatted it and installed windows server 2022 and it didn't solve the problem, the problem is in the Dedicated Server the isle evrima. There's nothing we can do

Tested on several PCs and servers with Windows Server operating system and they all gave crash problems

[ocean swallow]

Damn, so there isnt really anything to do? I have had hosted a dedicated server on windows and it would work

but now it won't if it's using a vps, you know if using Ubuntu or CentOS? would work?

[crystal sierra]

I don't know if it will work, I would have to test it

[bitter hearth]

Where do I add the easy anti cheat code?
Where do I add the Rcon code?
I am using both MapName=Gateway (game.ini) and /Game/TheIsle/Maps/Game/Gateway/Gateway in .bat but am still getting

[tough ember]

• Some people put the Anti Cheat Stuff directly in their .bat file, personally I have it in my Engine.ini that's in the same place as your Game.ini, just placed at the very top of the file like so:
  [EpicOnlineServices]
  DedicatedServerClientId=xyza7891gk5PRo3J7G9puCJGFJjmEguW
  DedicatedServerClientSecret=pKWl6t5i9NJK8gTpVlAxzENZ65P8hYzodV8Dqe5Rlc8

• I'm not sure what you mean by Rcon code? You need an RCON tool and under [/Script/TheIsle.TIGameSession] in your Game.ini you need:
  bRconEnabled=true
RconPassword=YourPassword
RconPort=YourRconPortOfChoice (Make sure the port is opened)

• You don't need /Game/TheIsle/Maps/Game/Gateway/Gateway in your .bat, MapName=Gateway in the Game.ini is enough and that "Error" isn't really an error

[bitter hearth]

[/Script/TheIsle.TIGameSession]
bQueueEnabled=true (This will be changed to QueueEnabled in v0.9.85.83)
QueuePort=10001

[/Script/Engine.Game]
RconEnabled=true
RconPassword=Password
RconPort=8889

is what i was talking about

Thanks for the other assistants

[tough ember]

[/Script/Engine.Game] is not used for evrima, far as I know. Here's an example Game.ini that I know works (tho some things might not be in there):

[bitter hearth]

would i set up queue port 7777, 7779

[tough ember]

Chose a port that is not used by anything and make sure it's opened, not sure if TCP or UPD tbh

[mellow plover]

Map load complete, its not a error

[velvet pumice]

AIDensity=1.0 What is the purpose of this setting, does it default to 1.0? And how do I adjust it,bro?

[bitter hearth]

How do i set up automated restart times?

[tough ember]

Affects the density of AI, 1.0 should be default same as with GrowthMultiplier, then just keep the formatting, 1.2 is a bit more , 5.0 is much more etc

Needs a server restart tho if you're gonna change it, p sure

[velvet pumice]

thx

[tough ember]

Either wherever you host it has a dashboard feature for it on their website, or on windows for example, you could make a task in the task scheduler that kills the server.exe at given intervals, and the .bat you start it with, automatically restarts it after x seconds, that's one way to do it

How to solve this problem

[lapis parcel]

i wanted to try the hordetesting but it gives me this and wont let me join any server

(not sure in which channel to post it tho)

[bitter hearth]

Yesterday all i had was engine.ini and game.ini

Whats all this?

Where did it come from? and why now, server been running for a week

and they are all empty

[bitter hearth]

@tough ember Does this mean i can only have 16 players connected at one time?

[tough ember]

No, that's just some libcurl stuff

[tough ember]

You can ignore those files, sometimes they generate when closing the server with ctrl+c

[bitter hearth]

How should i close the server?

[tough ember]

If this happens after the server runs for a while then all you can do is ignore and wait for a patch that fixes crashes, if it instantly happens on server startup then you have some other issue

[tough ember]

Either ❌ it or ctrl+c in the server window, doesn't really matter.

[bitter hearth]

Thank you SIR!

[tough ember]

Np, good luck^^

If you google "setup evrima dedicated server" there's a steamcommunity guide, it seems pretty up to date

[tender kraken]

@tough ember Is there any documentation on RCON?

is it possible to host a server using linux?

sorry if thats a dumb question. I am just now looking into it

[hallow pivot]

question,how i can get the spino unluck on the legacy?

[deep talon]

Hello, I need help
I make my own TheIsle (Legacy) server on Gportal.
In the settings and game.ini files, global chat is activated, only in game it is not activated. I would like it to be activated.
Anyone to help me please ?

[golden flare]

Make a ticket with gportal?

[deep talon]

It's already done
But they tell me that only evrima can use global chat

[tough ember]

I assume you have FTP access to the Game.ini file? In theory having bServerGlobalChat=true under [/script/theisle.igamesession] in the Game.ini File, should work to turn global on in Legacy

[deep talon]

yes, but global chat is no actived, i dont speak in global chat

[tough ember]

It says bEnableGlobalChat=true that's wrong for Legacy, change it to bServerGlobalChat=true and restart the server

[deep talon]

Yeeeeeess, is actived !! ty very much :3

[tough ember]

Np, good luck 😄

[dull obsidian]

Hi, im hosting my The Isle server on Ubuntu 22.04.4, i have some trouble setting the RCON:
if i use the setting like the last Patch 0.14.28.61, the connection don't show up even in the netstat of the system:

[/Script/TheIsle.TIGameSession] 
bRconEnabled=true
RconPassword=password
RconPort=8888

Else if i use this i can connect but the server sees me as unhautenticated:

[/Script/TheIsle.TIGameSession] 
RconEnabled=true
RconPassword=password
RconPort=8888

I've tryed with 2 different RCON client. Also my first password was 30 char lenght, i've tested with shorter password but nothing works.

SOLVED the server was rewriting the file

i cant play

when im join the hordetest my game crashes

[noble wasp]

Open command window as administrator and type this command to check the C: drive and repair when restarted
Chkdsk /F

[noble wasp]

Or you have a malware infection at the kernel level. Have you ever used cheat engine or anything that modifies system memory?

[thin merlin]

İt didint work

[crystal sierra]

Are you using Windows Server? This is happening on the Windows Server operating system, it is not a problem with your hardware.

Hmm it even works great on my win10 pro vps

[bitter hearth]

How do I:

• Set up announcement on log in?

• Set up announcement before automated server restarts?

[dull obsidian]

you need to do it with rcon

[bitter hearth]

Is there an official rcon tool for the isle?

[dull obsidian]

not official, i writed my own in c++

You can have more info there

[bitter hearth]

So will i have to write a code to set these up?

[golden flare]

Yes

[sacred skiff]

Hello there, i try to install a dedicated server for the isle but i get this

I dont change anything

[faint laurel]

I made this last year, not sure if it still works. https://github.com/modernham/The-Isle-Evrima-Server-Tools

[final dove]

No errors to be seen. This is normal

[sacred skiff]

I have this loop all the time :

[sacred skiff]

Its legacy server

[final dove]

I see you are trying to start up Isla Spiro which doesn't exist ATM and belongs in evrima not legacy

Make sure you aren't running on -beta evrima

[sacred skiff]

Oh yes i get this error, its normal ?

[final dove]

Because you are still having an evrima server installed and try to run it with legacy configs

[sacred skiff]

It's strange I put the run bash script legacy and I delete all file and reinstall 🧐

[final dove]

Sometimes steamcmd caches the recent installed game

Please show me the bash

[sacred skiff]

cls
echo Protecting isle server from crashes...
title The Isle Server - My Amazing Server

echo (%time%) WARNING: isle server closed or crashed, restarting in 1 minute.

goto TheIsle```

[sacred skiff]

The bash is good, no ?

[final dove]

yeah think its fine for legacy

Most likely your steam cmd could have been cached or something if you originally did try to install evrima

[sacred skiff]

Okay i look for delete the cache, thanks

[sacred skiff]

I have this now after the load i got :

How i can fix this ?

[final dove]

The yellow text is not an error

It happens on all servers, as you see it does say the server was brought up

so it should be working, and if its not - you most likely need to do port forwarding on your router to allow the outside these ports

[sacred skiff]

Ow okay we cant hide the warning yellow ?

[sacred skiff]

And i have little question, i put a custom port in the server and i open but i dont see in the server list, its normal ?

[final dove]

You can hide it, but theres no need.

Is your ports opened up on your router, and firewalls? And are you hosting this on your own machine where you also play?

[sacred skiff]

I have a dedicated server with proxmox with vm windows, its connect directly to the router, i disable firewall in windows and proxmox and open the port, that strange

How we can hide the warnings, its better for the console too

[silk grail]

Hi. How to make a slot system for the server? Let's say I have started a server on my pc. Is there any plugin for this or do I need to write a bot?

For legacy

[final dove]

You need to write a bot in general, yes

nothing like this comes with the game

[silk grail]

Do I understand correctly that this bot just edits the player data file from the database folder?

Like that

It's in pinned messages in this channel, or here -> #server-hosting message
Note: Ban and Kick player function with EOS_ID now however (which u either see in the Log when someone logs in, or with the GETPLAYERLIST rcon command) and Kick needs a reason too to function, so EOS_ID, KickReason

[bronze sky]

noone?

[crystal sierra]

I've been having this problem since the last update patch 0.14.28.61 on May 3rd

I've been trying to find a solution for two months but the problem is the isle evrima

[analog geyser]

Does any body know The ini For turning off AI?

[tough ember]

For evrima, under [/Script/TheIsle.TIGameSession] put bSpawnAI= with false or true, to activate/deactivate all AI
You can also deactivate specific AI instead of all with DisallowedAIClasses=Pterodactylus for example (one line for each)

[analog geyser]

Thank you

[jaunty wadi]

Does anyone know the solution to this problem?

[tough ember]

That it's loading the wrong map?
Make sure to have MapName=Gateway under [/Script/TheIsle.TIGameSession] in your Game.ini

[undone sky]

@naive onyx hello, could you check dms Please?

[jaunty wadi]

Now such a problem has occurred

I was able to open servers without any problems before.

[clear python]

Windows Server 2012,2016 no longer supports Unreal Engine

[prime bobcat]

Use extended kernel

[bronze sky]

@crystal sierra is there a fix for Windows Server?

[stoic ore]

can someone please tell me why my screen just turns black when i click host? in evrima? just got the game

[golden flare]

You can't host from ingame, you need a dedicated server

[crystal sierra]

As far as I know, no.

[modest seal]

Is there a way to slow down hunger and diet drains on unofficial servers

[tough ember]

there isn't

[modest seal]

Damn that sucks, hope it gets implemented soon, ty for the answer

[random gorge]

Is there a way for me to run the Hordetest beta on my server?

[tough ember]

there isn't

[random gorge]

Ooof.

Are there any estimates on how long Horde Test will last?

[grand lotus]

We got a new server to try out hosting and is there supposed to be a Database folder in the files? All I see in the Saved folder is a PlayerData with a .sav file for each player. I saw that there should be a .json or a db file somewhere?

[tough ember]

Legacy uses .json files for player saves and Evrima has the .sav and .sav.bak files. It's been like that for ages, you're not missing anything, probably an old guide or something.

[grand lotus]

I see, so is there another way for me to see what species players are currently playing? Because I saw bots that allowed you to save your dino to be regrown by a mod later, but how can those bots know about your species/growth etc.?

[tough ember]

The log file shows what dinosaur players log out/in with and what growth, bots can just read that and the rest is creativity^^

[steady yacht]

The storing of dinos is probably done with the Legacy version of the game. Those save files are stored in plain JSON and easy for bots to read/write to them. When it comes to Evrima, this isn't really possible in a traditional sense. The new .sav files are not readable at this point in time. Even if they were, you would have to convert to json and recompile to a sav file, overwriting the previous one. It's not an easy process.

Your best bet is utilizing logs from the game to collect whatever data you need for Evrima. If you're on Legacy, just google for a working solution.

[modest seal]

Is there also any way to change weather frequency and day/night time length separately, wondering if it can be done via a bot as well

[tough ember]

For evrima I assume?
There's nothing for weather frequency, you can just turn it on and off. Seperately adjusting Day/night time length should be possible once hordetest is over and the patch is live, there's a fix here #announcements message saying "Fixed night time config not being respected"
Since those changes need a server restart, your bot would have to change the config after your server.exe closed and before your start script starts it up again.

[modest seal]

Thank you for the answer! Yes for evrima, what I mean by weather frequency is like if you can change the chance of rain/storms in server config. And its nice to hear that you will be able to edit day/night lengths seperately

[tough ember]

Np 😄 There's no setting for weather frequency, it's just bServerDynamicWeather=true or false

[velvet pumice]

hi guys, anyone know how to fix this?

[narrow locust]

how to configure custom skins❓

Does anyone have experience with the Isle's RCON (or if someone has a good documentation page for it)?

I am trying to send the RCON_KICKPLAYER to the server but I get no response from the server to this command. I am using the steamId obtained from RCON_GETPLAYERLIST so my packet sent looks like: 0x02 0x30 <EOS id>

The server responds to other commands and I can do announcements with strings but the kick or ban just don't seem to want to work.

The command is also recognized but I'm just not getting any other feedback from the server

[golden flare]

You need to use EOS ID and add a reason for the kick to work

[grand lotus]

oh neat, it doesn't specify the reason in the documentation I found

[undone sky]

guys i need help, like you guys Know Isla Spiro? theres still a "lan" option there, i wanna see how to open a lan server there.

[bold mauve]

Hello everyone. Guys, I'm stuck in a texture. /unstuck doesn't help. Restarting the game and the server too. I'm on a carnotaurus on the Eu 3 server at coordinates: -54,945.553, 453,204.414, 22,271.212. Can anyone help me out please? 100% growth - it's a shame to lose it just like that because of a texture xD

[knotty night]

Hello everyone, how can I get out of the bug on the 2nd EU server? stuck in a tunnel(

144,251.385, 117,713.124, 23,049.306

[tough ember]

@knotty night @bold mauve Check pinned messages in #evrima-eu for stuck help

[bold mauve]

ty, but already asked- nothing, unfortunately(

[wind siren]

im having problems with rollback in my server

anyone knows what could be the reason or any way to fix it?

[small hollow]

I have a quick Question about the Setup for a Debian Based Server.

I installed the non-free repository, installed steamcmd, installed the App too, all worked well.

Configured my ports, NAT is set up too, and it should be working connection wise.
But when i start the launcher, i get the error that it cant load the map out of a network URL, even tho its leading to a path...
I tired to set it also in the game.ini, but it didnt help.

Error log says the following:
[2024.08.03-18.35.09:943][]LogLoad: Error: Failed to enter /Game/TheIsle/Maps/TitleMap: Servers can't open network URLs. Please check the log for errors.

The rest works quite well. But this ends up in a loop where it just tries over and over again to load the map.

I have read here and there that this is a wrong setting in the engine itself...
Or is there a fix i can implement to make the surver start up?

[wraith solar]

hello excuse me I have a small problem on the server in fact I am stuck between pebbles and I can't get unblocked how can I do it <@&505047238674874368> <@&579345586965446657>

[small hollow]

so i have exactly this error, tried the install with:
Steam>force_install_dir /home/isle/isle
Steam>login anonymous
Steam>app_update 412680 -beta evrima +quit
Steam>exit

[tough ember]

Did u put MapName=Gateway in the Game.ini under the [/Script/TheIsle.TIGameSession] section? Evrima needs that and the start file should also not contain any /Game/TheIsle/Maps... map load configuration like Legacy Isle uses.

[small hollow]

ohhh, no i didnt do that...interessting, will test that

[small hollow]

this works perfectly....
I think this should be defaulted in the github config files maybe

[tough ember]

No clue who upkeeps that tbh. The unofficial windows hosting guides on steamcommunity however always seem to be pretty up to date tho, since the Game.ini is the same you could always look there when in doubt 😄 Glad you got it working now

[ocean swallow]

How do i activate mutations?

[half wren]

tab -> mutations -> press one of the hexegons and then scroll through the mutation list and select the one u want and then confirm

[terse tree]

Look at the most recent steam update. Config is all there. All mutations are default if you leave the \ in front of everything.

My evrima server updated, now I can't get it to run. Keeps saying it requires microsoft visual C++ runtime, and asks if I want to install them.

[half wren]

maybe uninstall the game and re install? or verify the files or sum

[terse tree]

I already did that using steamcmd for hosting the server. No luck.

[half wren]

https://www.reddit.com/r/Lutris/comments/w6t5k0/game_needs_microsoft_visual_c_runtime/

try here maybe

[ocean swallow]

Why is the console now blank?

[half wren]

how do u manage hat

[ocean swallow]

I did not do anything, now it's just blank after latest patch

[half wren]

just wait till they announce that everything is fixed before u try to launch again, might be better

[terse tree]

Agreed

[terse tree]

Same issue on mine now that I can get it up.

[plush tendon]

Glad it wasn't just me lol. But keep an eye on #announcements, looks like they are fixing some things

[umbral mason]

@ocean swallowHave you found a solution?

[ocean swallow]

nope

[wind knoll]

having the same problem, hope it's fixed soon

[ocean swallow]

Still nothing

[chrome barn]

anybody figure it out?

[umbral mason]

The game files are not uploaded to the server...Look at the size of your folder, and if possible, subscribe here to be noticed)

[chrome barn]

so no way to fix it?

[umbral mason]

866mb my folder

[chrome barn]

ours is as well

[wind knoll]

welp

[narrow locust]

fix❓

[proud venture]

Mutations don't appear to be working on my server-

[abstract carbon]

mutations are not working for us as well and nothing is wrong with the code, we looked

[woeful mulch]

How did you guys even fix the blank console? Ive updated my game.ini

[umbral mason]

Think they just use linux

[abstract carbon]

we just got it working for our server

[woeful mulch]

Windows? I have that same game.ini on fresh install and no luck for me

[umbral mason]

wrong game.ini

u need delete //

and mutation ll work

[abstract carbon]

we got it working with that

[woeful mulch]

yeah if you uncomment all of the mutation lines

[wind knoll]

the new config says "Keep commented out to have all mutations enabled."? I'm confused now

[ocean swallow]

"list of all enabled mutations and values. Keep commented out to have all mutations enabled. Enabling any mutations means you must include all mutations you would like available on your server. Listed below are all modifiable mutations with default values. Altering these values may produce unstable gameplay."

[wind knoll]

Also how are yall getting your servers to work? Still can't connect to mine post-update and changing the game.ini

[ocean swallow]

You need to comment the mutations to work

[void schooner]

If you try to use linux you may corrupt your database

[chrome barn]

we followed everything to a t and still nothing

[umbral mason]

i told about this (*****// Value must be 1 or remove from this list to disable it.)

[woeful mulch]

On windows? Fresh install? anything different?

[snow nacelle]

im having the same issue, ours is up but wont let us connect

[umbral mason]

WIndows w8ing for FIX...linux working)

[proud venture]

Sorry how do I enable mutations?

[umbral mason]

bEnableMutations=true

[proud venture]

Where would that be

Or do I just type that out

[umbral mason]

after [/Script/TheIsle.TIGameSession]

in game.ini

[proud venture]

I'm not seeing it

[woeful mulch]

i would change your rcon password before you do get your server working looool

[proud venture]

Fair enough

[umbral mason]

just add a line under [/Script/TheIsle.TIGameSession]

bEnableMutations=true

[marsh gust]

Are some of us waiting for a fix to be released? Our server has followed everything to a T so far with no success in letting players in

[proud venture]

I'll see if that did it.

[umbral mason]

waiting fix

[marsh gust]

Gotcha, thank you

[umbral mason]

developers said wait)so we waiting)

It's a shame that it only affected Windows Servers

and we hurried with the update)

[snow nacelle]

is that why servers arent able to host players?

interesting, do we know how this issue happened?

[nova orchid]

"EnabledMutations=Hemomania,0.05 is it under Script/TheIsle.TIGameStateBase or TIGameSession?

[ocean swallow]

Respawn timer is set to 250 mins, and i can't find the variable to set up the config for the respawn timer, anyone has it?

[proud venture]

How would I make ai spawn a little more frequently, I know that was added recently.

[nova orchid]

AISpawnInterval=40

[proud venture]

Is 40 the average?

[nova orchid]

you set the number under 40 and more ai will be spawn

[proud venture]

Ah

So if I set that to AISpawnInterval=20

Ai will spawn more often?

[woeful mulch]

interval in seconds

so yeah twice as often

[proud venture]

Awesome, that should be plenty

[woeful mulch]

Are you on windows? if so how did you get past blank console?

[proud venture]

No idea

[nova orchid]

we have to hope that the fix is coming in the next time and not in the next days :x

[hidden finch]

anyone else server wont let you or anyone join it?

[nova orchid]

yes , all with windows server ^^

[hidden finch]

oh ok, is it being fixed rn?

[nova orchid]

no , were waiting on the fix too

[hidden finch]

damn ok

[golden flare]

is the linux build broken ?

[snow nacelle]

Nope! Those should be working

[golden flare]

hmm, mine just gets stuck on Shutdown handler: initialize. 5.4.3-0+UE5 1012 0 Disabling core dumps.

[snow nacelle]

Interesting… I heard they were working

[terse tree]

Windows server is certainly hosed right now. Blank console and nothing else.

[golden flare]

ah think its working just no log output

[void schooner]

Did you manage to find your server in the list? And furthermore, were you able to access the server?

[golden flare]

Yes and no, for some of the servers it works just fine, and for others they don't seem to load correctly and i get the error you posted above

[proud venture]

No nests are appearing on my server?

Despite one being active.

[wind knoll]

Are we still supposed to add the EpicOnlineServices line to the engine.ini? Or is it not needed? Or has it changed? When I try to connect to my server I get booted out with an error message:

(When I updated my server the engine.ini erased the eos line).

Also does the game.ini need the mapname? I noticed the new version doesn't have it.

[deft venture]

how do i set my server to evrima and not legacy

[nova orchid]

app_update 412680 -beta evrima
in steamCMD

[deft venture]

do i have to set the map to gate way in my bat file its set to landscape 3 v3 and my server dont show up in evrima unnoficial

[marsh gust]

MapName=Gateway

[deft venture]

in .bat or game.ini

my bat file says landscape v3

[marsh gust]

game.ini i believe

[deft venture]

so the bat file dosent matter

?

[marsh gust]

i'm not sure, im not a server owner

[deft venture]

bruh

😂

[marsh gust]

If I'm able to help in some areas i will, I never claimed to know it all

and I figure some answer is better than nobody answering you

[deft venture]

ok cool

thx

[wind knoll]

The update info page has a new game.ini for server owners but it doesn't include Mapname=Gateway like the prev version so idk yet. I guess we'll know tomorrow since the devs are prob asleep atm

[marsh gust]

you can try checking the pinned messages too for any clues or answers

[nova orchid]

i dont have the mapname in my bat data

[deft venture]

imma go light a firework off in there houses

[nova orchid]

an in germany we sit here and cry 😄 its 8.30 in the morning :c

[frozen jewel]

the only one you need :

[wind knoll]

Do we not need the line for EpicOnlineServices?

[frozen jewel]

i write it in my engine.ini

[wind knoll]

Ah I thought maybe you knew something we didn't that might get my server working. It hasn't worked since the update ;-;

[deft venture]

no spot for my ip adress?

[frozen jewel]

the blank console?

[wind knoll]

Yes

[deft venture]

what?

[nova orchid]

blank console and not possible to join

[frozen jewel]

start /wait TheIsleServer.exe MultiHome=12.111.80.222?Port=6667?QueryPort=6668?MaxPlayers=200 -log
yea

..

i m wait them fix it

[deft venture]

this is super confusing lol

[nova orchid]

but server is to find in list but joining is still impossible

[frozen jewel]

same for me

[deft venture]

im working on a new server trying to get everything set up

but i think thier guide is super outdated and meant for legacy servers

[frozen jewel]

i tried it too, but not useful

[deft venture]

yeah my server wont even show up for me

[nova orchid]

its terrible i mean for the most people here its still in the evening so they go sleep and the fix is possibly out 😄 i have a whole day for me and a night an then (tomorrow morning for me) its possibly to get a fix ;D

[wind knoll]

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2952501611

Here's the Evrima guide. But, we're all still stuck not being able to connect until a patch is put out.

Also, the latest update post has a different game.ini:

YOU NEED SOME HEAD??????

[wind knoll]

[bitter hearth]

Has anyone got there windows base server working?

[nova orchid]

i dont think so ^^ when im looked in the unofficial list ingame i see only 3 or 4 servers with players rest is still empty

[dusk trout]

Wtf is this update man

They broke everything

[urban lance]

Same issue here, server is up but I/ppl can't connect

[silk flame]

Anyone had any luck on windows yet? Servers up and showing, shows correct version. But can't connect. Done full reinstall on both server and client

[wind knoll]

No still waiting on a fix. Other server owners have said maybe some important things are missing in the current build? Server logs seem to be gone?

[fading grove]

is there any server up rn?

[silk flame]

Yea I'm seeing the same, says logs open but no output. Also removed the map from settings to, wonder if we need to add that to CMD line now. Will test a few things, if I have any luck, will let you guys know. But I'd imagine everyone else has tested these already.

[unreal jackal]

Some community servers managed to get it working.

[wind knoll]

Some Linux servers I think

[fading grove]

oh, i see, windows is the issue than?

[fading grove]

do u know if they use linux?

[wind knoll]

Not sure, it just seems more Linux servers are up than Windows atm

[unreal jackal]

I asked one of them and they said yeah, but that's just one server.

[fading grove]

i'll make a quick update on my server and see what i get

[wind knoll]

Good luck

[silk flame]

Would really help if the log file was atleast working lol.

[fading grove]

mine for some reason is not even creating the config files

it get stuck on this and nothing happens

[smoky crane]

yeah it is the same happening to most people

punch last night sent me a DM that they were looking into it already

[merry urchin]

I made a tiny test server, just so I could personally try out the new update - I got it to show (finally) - just nada on connecting.

[void schooner]

Has anyone here tried using containerd to deploy the new version?

[lament ether]

does anyone know why the server wont add me as admin

Kinda feel like the server/game isnt really reading the game.ini settings

[velvet pumice]

Same problem as you, bro,can you join your server when it show this?

[fading grove]

it is not even creating server file settings

[velvet pumice]

Officials are investigating the problem, so we'll have to wait for a fix.

[glad cliff]

Why I can see the server,but i can’t connect it?

@fading grove bro

[urban lance]

Where did you read this if I may ask ?

[smoky crane]

I dmed punch yesterday and he said the same thing

[deft venture]

hey do i have to remove all the notes from the server settings in the patch notes or can i just copy paster

[urban lance]

Ok ty

[deft venture]

server not doing anything and wont load any files in the saved folder

[velvet pumice]

punch said, they r working at it

[urban lance]

Okay, ty

[velvet pumice]

np

[terse tree]

Thanks for keeping everyone update with what you know about the work being done. I appreciate you!

[visual coral]

Im reading right that problems connecting after the update it's the game broken not my computer right ?

[wind knoll]

Can someone possibly send me a Discord invitation for the Foreign Land EU server?

[fiery bear]

its on ucj's channel

[stone totem]

How do I fix my console? It’s not showing any data, like if someone joins etc.. I am hosting on bisect, TIA

[coral oar]

Does anyone know when this server issue will be solved?

[frigid pelican]

Unfortunately this link does not work either 🙂

[jade sundial]

No

[coral oar]

That's sad...

[fiery bear]

if we did it would be in annoucements and therefore wouldve been mentioned already, think about it

[frigid pelican]

What issue ?

[fiery bear]

check your dms

[jade sundial]

The devs broke windows servers and are currently trying to fix them

They don't want this to last longer any more than we do

But there's nothing to do for us except wait

[wind knoll]

The game.ini in the update post has been updated, it has the mapname now

the order some things were in seem to have changed?

[river tundra]

Hello! I just started, why don't the servers appear?

[wind knoll]

unofficial servers broke after update

[river tundra]

tks

[solar snow]

Right click the game in your steam library, click properties, click betas, select the drop-down bar and select evrima

[wind knoll]

ah I misunderstood the question ty

[nova orchid]

Oh boy , its a bigger issue with Windows Server? Its the second day . So we can hope the devs fixed it next night( night for me in germany ^^)

[noble wasp]

My log window says

[cedar canopy]

I am facing the same issue on my Ubuntu machine. Did you manage to find a solution by chance?

[noble wasp]

windows server and it is working since the minudump message popped up

[nova orchid]

Same message by my server but its impossible to join

[tough ember]

Can only wait for a fix #announcements message

[nova orchid]

Yes i hope the fix come quickly ^^
