[inner dragon]

what command?

did you not run the RCON save command before restart?

[floral pond]

how can i put my discord into my server it just keeps sending me here even tho i have my link in

[inner dragon]

whats the discord link you have in your Game.ini look like?

[floral pond]

i had it without the https:// and just had my ky5.... but both ways were bringing me to this discord

[lucid scaffold]

how can i get all command byte map of rcon

[inner dragon]

hm maybe thats a hidden dev feature on dedicated servers, no actual unoffical discord linking

o nvm mines working

o, double quote it

[worthy ingot]

Hey, trying since yesterday. Nothing worked. Tried several solutions and was reading here, but im always stuck at this point. Ports are open

[median drift]

no i didnt run the RCON save command, im not sure where i can find it

[inner dragon]

You’re going to have to provide more than that. What’s the server Game.ini and what’s the console show prior to that. Garbage logs (garbage collector) means it’s running

[inner dragon]

Run save, wait a few seconds and then restart GRACEFULLY

[worthy ingot]

Its the default ini from "https://guides.gsh-servers.com/the-isle/evrima/the-isle-evrima-setup"
And i tried putting the ports 7777 and 27015 in Startbat, didnt work, put into Engine, didnt work

i edited the Ini to my preferences

[inner dragon]

Remove QueryPort from your start command, leave it in the ini

[worthy ingot]

i did, still didnt worked. ALready was reading about it

[inner dragon]

Gunna have to provide more info then

[worthy ingot]

And the start takes forever. Sometimes i press enter while its freezing and it continue working

[inner dragon]

O wait why don’t you have the epic online keys in your start?

[worthy ingot]

its in engine.ini, tried it with and without in the bat file

This was the first Bat. (edited)

[inner dragon]

Yeah don’t bother, server is too janky. Use it in the start argument and then post your whole console log once you see a garbage logs. Remove whatever sensitive data you don’t want to share

Only argument the start needs is map (which I think is just for good measure), query port, EOS key, log arg

Did you copy over the steam DLLs to the server binary folder?

[worthy ingot]

You mean this?

[median drift]

after solve problem with Randomguy , can you explain me where i can find RCON please 🙂 ?

[worthy ingot]

Its always freezing at this point. in a few minutes i press enter or space and it continues

Im running Conan exiles server on this machine too, without any problems. Ofc Conan is offline to avoid problems

[worthy ingot]

Theres the next part

Nothing happen anymore

[inner dragon]

Steam DLLs in the wrong folder

[worthy ingot]

TheIsle\Binaries\Win64?

[inner dragon]

O ignore me, that’s right. I think you need a few more though

[worthy ingot]

More of what? The files were there automatic

The server did "Collecting Garbage" six times now. Still unreachable, tried over Steam Server list and ingame server list

[inner dragon]

Yeah you’re gunna need a few more DLLs, I’ll relay which ones when I’m on my personal computer

[worthy ingot]

So i have to login into my steam account on an dedicated server? just to get the files i need for the server?

[inner dragon]

forgot they're on my server proj on github.

No login needed, just need to copy them from a machine that has steam installed on it

after you do that, restart it and if still not working paste all of your console output into pastebin and remove whatever info you don't want to send

[worthy ingot]

i cant copy to the server, i dont use connections between servers and my personal pc

[inner dragon]

umm why not?

[worthy ingot]

security reasons

[inner dragon]

lol okay well, figure out another way to get it downloaded bud. curl, wget, install steam on the machine to copy DLLs then remove, whatever flavor you like

[worthy ingot]

i already installed steam on the machine, do i need to login? Or are the files somewhere?

[inner dragon]

o good yeah just copy the DLLs from steam install root. Honestly though if you don't mind the annoying steam login pop up whenever you retsrat I'd just leave steam installed

[worthy ingot]

Okay, i pasted the files, lets see..

[worthy ingot]

https://pastebin.com/TWDusF86

[inner dragon]

whats your current start arg in the batch?
LogInit: Command Line: /Game/TheIsle/Maps/Game/Gateway/Gateway?Port=7777? -log - that's the command line the server is saying it's using

No clue if this is a normal error in the large list of normal errors this server has but might be worth noting
Could not locate the DLL at: C:/theisleserver/TheIsle/Plugins/EOSOnlineSubsystem/Source/ThirdParty-DiscordGameSDK/lib/x86_64/discord_game_sdk.dll Doubt it matters much though except maybe this is how they're doing the discord button? If oddly looked into programdata and your downloads for it lol

Also interesting find, looks like if your server has an RTX card it MIGHT fix the DLSS issues?
LogDLSS: NVIDIA NGX DLSS requires an NVIDIA RTX series graphics card

Looks like it's loading an invalid map?
/Game/TheIsle/Maps/Game/Gateway/Gateway?Name=Player?Port=7777?
but then it loads Gateway normal lol
LogContentBundle: [Gateway(Dedicated Server)] Creating new container.

It does not show the server name is bound though, does your Game.ini have a name setup?

[worthy ingot]

So what now? This is the first server im struggling over hours, no one knows whatsa wrong

[primal granite]

Random, what OS are you installing this on?

[worthy ingot]

Server 2019

[primal granite]

ahh ok. cant help ya there. I have 2 little NUCs that I use for game servers for my community...been running game servers for years and this is the first one I am having issues with as well.

[worthy ingot]

Same to me. Nearly 10 years, community servers, never any problem and now this^^

[brisk merlin]

Welcome to the club 🙂

[worthy ingot]

Well.. If i cant get it to work till tomorrow, i just refund.. Got 13 Minutes playtime, while i was looking for my server...

[brisk merlin]

is it not possible that someone copy's there complete folder

and we change the things that is needed

[inland fractal]

What would the command line be in the Game.ini to remove rabbits and chickens from spawning. I have tried a few to no avail.
Or can we not stop them from spawning as they are also a preferred food to some dinosaurs?

[dawn crane]

why i dont see the t-rex guys ?

[brisk merlin]

where in the server file you have to put your ip?

or dont you have to

[coral karma]

Who is the go to for host provider for this game?

[worthy ingot]

hes using 0.0.0.0 what i figured out. So hes picking your ipv4 adress.

[brisk merlin]

so should work ?

[worthy ingot]

Mine is starting "Garbage Collecting" after

but nothing happen. Even if i completly disable firewall, the server isnt showing up

i mean, server got network and working. Dont get it, why i cant see him

[brisk merlin]

can someone upload there working server?

takes very long

[worthy ingot]

this will be an endless loop^^

[brisk merlin]

idk anymore what the issue is, spent already so many hours without finding the problem

[inland fractal]

What would the command line be in the Game.ini to remove rabbits and chickens from spawning. I have tried a few to no avail.
Or can we not stop them from spawning as they are also a preferred food to some dinosaurs?

[inner dragon]

Under [/script/theisle.tigamestatebase]
in the Game.ini

// DisallowedAIClasses=Compsognathus
// DisallowedAIClasses=Pterodactylus
// DisallowedAIClasses=Boar
// DisallowedAIClasses=Deer
// DisallowedAIClasses=Goat
// DisallowedAIClasses=Seaturtle```

o wait my bad rabbits and chicken. you can try and add them to that format but probably cant remove it

[inland fractal]

Thats how i have it without the //

They still spawn

[inner dragon]

yeah prob cant remove it then

@worthy ingot whats the title of your server?

also you can verify server is listening to the correct ports with
netstat -ano | findStr "<port number>"

[inland fractal]

Do you know if the MaxAI=300 (My Vairable) would work?

[inner dragon]

I doubt there is an argument to cap the AI count

[inland fractal]

Im tryin....

I know I can adjust the variable for the Density and Intervals. But Then we get the million rabbits and chickens

[worthy ingot]

Trying tomorrow. Last day I’m trying. Than I’m done with the game

[inner dragon]

I'm saying I doubt there is an argument you can even use to cap the count. doubt the dev's made one or a method for that

[inner dragon]

I'm working 8-4PM MST if you need me again, can't guarentee I'll be available the whole time but I'd be interested to browse for your server when it's online and of course the netstat return

[worthy ingot]

The ports are available, using the same on Conan server and it works

[inner dragon]

I'm not worried about being available, I'm curious if the binary is actually listening on what it needs to

[worthy ingot]

Checking tomorrow

[inner dragon]

sounds good

[silver wadi]

says what is the site to see the evolution of dinos on evrima ? mp plz ||<@&579345586965446657> ||

[solar snow]

I don't know what you're talking about

[silver wadi]

the isle evrima site to see the evolution

[solar snow]

What do you mean by the "evolution"?

[silver wadi]

the release of the new dino

[solar snow]

We no longer have a trello roadmap, but you can learn about the development of upcoming dinos by reading the devblogs posted in #announcements and on Steam

[silver wadi]

Yes, I know, but do you have a website?
to see the evolution when the dino comes out ?

[solar snow]

No

[serene grove]

whar

is you use translator?

[silver wadi]

ok

[final dove]

The fix is above, sec

Here, 3 servers at least within this week have had same issue as you - and this thing here fixed it for them.

[inner dragon]

Server is bound, you can try what MENIX has posted

Probably a Hail Mary at this point

[worthy ingot]

my server does already say he started

[final dove]

Frankly we did everything with dlls, netstat, firewalls opened, steam workshop files etc

Only thing fixing was the above

I don't see that on your logs no.

Start session create etc, isn't server started

[inner dragon]

I’m sure this isn’t the case but you don’t have a phantom server running without the console window while you’re trying to start another right?

[worthy ingot]

Here. Network failure and starting server

[final dove]

Yes your server hasn't started on those.

Network failure bound isn't meaning you have a network failure

It's a little misleading

It's because it binds it earlier in the top

[inner dragon]

It’s bad wording

[final dove]

Please follow what I wrote, and try again. Then after 3-5 minutes you'll see a new line with something like

[Server has started!]

Which is not present in any of your pictures.

As much stupid as it is, to install Steam & Isle. It's a consistent fix for the Discord as well for community servers (not a public disc, private with server owners and isle devs)

But it has worked for a multitude of people now 😂 who's stuck at the exact same spot, same outcome as you have

[inner dragon]

Pretty weird dedicated server

I wonder what the official server binaries are like

[final dove]

Just important you install steam, install isle (remember it has to be evrima branch)

Let it run, and fail on eac

Start up server again

After 5 minutes it should succeed this time and give you a started server print.

And you should be able to find.

It's stupid, I know. It's plain stupid - but it is what it is xD

[final dove]

God knows, a mess!

[inner dragon]

Nah it’s probably actually stable

[final dove]

Idk, it's the same. We used to test server binaries from devs on Asura in the past to check if their server issues was based on hardware on theirs

[worthy ingot]

So i did this, server is loading. we'll see

[final dove]

Did you let it fail eac start etc

[inner dragon]

I doubt it’s the same as public dedi

[worthy ingot]

so?

[final dove]

Yup

Now it started

Session started successfully! Means the server is started

[final dove]

It was, but the binaries are just uncooked

Unpacked

[worthy ingot]

Well, cant find it on Steam Server with IP

[inner dragon]

That’d be nice

[final dove]

They use eos not steam

So you won't be able to find unless you go ingame

[inner dragon]

Server browser

[worthy ingot]

ok im looking

[final dove]

Server browser is no bueno on steam itself

[worthy ingot]

What a mess.

[inner dragon]

Welcome to The Isle

[final dove]

: D

[worthy ingot]

i never played the game, doing this for a friend^^

[inner dragon]

It’s a pretty solid game tbh

[final dove]

I've been doing this since 2019, my hais are gray by now

[inner dragon]

The server support is just literally no where from the devs

Minus the outdated PDF’s

[final dove]

I host servers, make bots etc for Asura, nycta, life finds a way and some others

So it's just.. it's been an experience since 2019

And we have a direct connection to devs, helped making logs etc for admins and it's just...

[worthy ingot]

Okay wow. Its actually worked.. ?.? Crazy, never had to do this on all the servers i hosted, thanks

[final dove]

Welcome to isle

[inner dragon]

I generally host normal servers burning up an isle server to game with the boys and have way better latency for anyone in Colorado

[inner dragon]

No one else has either don’t worry

I didn’t even think about the steam client stuff, did that a while ago

[final dove]

Trust me Punchpacket already recieved some messages from us on the community disc in regards to this issue.

Hopefully it gets fixed.

[inner dragon]

That’s a big hope

[final dove]

We are a few large servers that has poked out about this entire server hosting experience. He has responded back to us positively, so hopefully it's on the agenda.

It's not very optimal you gotta install the game to host the server 😌 - it's also why when I wrote the thing above it's like... It sounds stupid, but even with binaries, steam, port forwarding etc everything done.

Ah, just install game and make it not run

@worthy ingot you can remove steam again btw after. Server should still work

Idk if you can uninstall game. Haven't tried that bit

[inner dragon]

It’s weird too because this randomly happens, I didn’t have to install the game ever for mine

[final dove]

Ye its just.. another fix to fix another fix :/

It's like opening Pandora's box

[inner dragon]

lol

[worthy ingot]

Already did thanks

Okay, insane rubberbanding, any solutions?

[tough ember]

currently normal in the first couple minutes of server startup

[median drift]

We are trying to find out where the server stores the data, but it doesn't save any data, after restarting the server everything is deleted again, can anyone help me with this problem please?

[steel mica]

Hello. I tryed everything, but i dont know any solution now. I can not Connect to my Server

https://i.imgur.com/W13RWVl.png

anyone from tech-support department?

[steel mica]

Hmm on my Win11 homeserver with VPN it works . wired.

seems it wont work with win server 22

[terse tree]

When I had my server 2022 running it I did have to install steam and install the game before it would let me run the server. Some dependency that isn’t included with just the server install from steam cmd.

[inner dragon]

that's not a thing here unfortunately

[steel mica]

did not work

[inner dragon]

lolz, you can DM one of the dev's with a dollar figure and see them laugha t you - or who knows, maybe take the bribe ya never know

[steel mica]

anyone knows it works on win server 25?

[inner dragon]

probably

o god Windows 11 desktop on a server OS, that's disgusting lol

[static arrow]

Is it possible to build a discord bot to do insta grow, change skin color ect?

[inner dragon]

instagrow for sure, color change idk

o wait nvm the RCON doesn't do the in game player stuff

[granite obsidian]

i try to DM you but no responses

Hi Guys, i would like to ask something.
Is it possible if we build SERVER make the mutations can be stacks ?

[inner dragon]

stack mutations? What do you mean? multiple entries for the same mutation with different values?

[native mauve]

Negative. Mutations do not stack

[granite obsidian]

server not shown in unofficial

[inner dragon]

that's a typical error, try this out and see if it fixes it - #server-hosting message

[granite obsidian]

thx

[real ore]

I made a server and Somehow people cannot chat in Global channel , How do i fix this?

[elder yacht]

Anyone knows how to send DM with RCON?

[elder yacht]

Game.ini enable global chat

[elder yacht]

Anyone?

[steady yacht]

DM is crashing servers rn

Recommend not doing it

[elder yacht]

Allright, but if they fix it, how do i use it.

[steady yacht]

There is an rcon guide in the pins from the developers

[elder yacht]

Anyone tried dino storage?

[ancient harbor]

Just a question do you need to have an external server host like nitrado or something to host a dedicated server?

[elder yacht]

Anyone can tell me how you use dino storage? I tried duplicating the .sav files and put them back but everytime it says the files are corrupted.

[inner dragon]

you have to safe log out before moving the file and obviously not be logged in when copying that file back

[inner dragon]

you dont have to but generally they're going to have better hardware options than what you're gunna run at home unless you've got some cash to waste

[elder yacht]

I do all of these things but when I move it back after a few minutes it says the files are corrupted.

[inner dragon]

you're either doing the copy out too early or copy in too early

[brisk merlin]

server still not findable, port 7777,8888,10000 is open

[granite obsidian]

RCON broken

[wind siren]

Hello

Can someone send how is your playerbans.json file? My punishments are not working

I want to see the structure of the punishment

[elder yacht]

How long do I need wait after safe log

[inner dragon]

Whenever the server writes the payer file correctly and completely. Console should show a log output when it’s done writing

[shrewd frigate]

hello folks!

i try to establish an automatic server announcement everytime the server server restarts/shuts down. whats the command for an announcement... i thought "/announcement" but it doesn't work. any ideas?

Thank u in advance

[terse tree]

Assuming for evrima, an RCON script could do this.

[golden flare]

You must either code it yourself or use something like Evirma Manager that has automatic announcements

[shrewd frigate]

I do have a managment tool for servers... an announcement on discord is possible and running... coding it myself would be easier cause i already had it XD... ist here a command ingame for an announcement?

[golden flare]

There's an RCON command yeah, check the pinned in this chn

[ancient harbor]

is there a way to set the spawn rate as in how many or is it just the interval of fresh spawns?

for AI

Also anyone know how to add the selecting of spawn locations?

[ashen obsidian]

where can i find players EOS IDs?

[inner dragon]

region spawn, and it's only time based

[ancient harbor]

okay got it

[inner dragon]

also the timer thing in the INI makes literally no sense at all, if you want the timer to not be a thing you have to set the cooldown to false and the seconds to the amount of seconds you are from UTC time

I would assume the timer when used uses the same scheme of offset from UTC time

[weary terrace]

I have tried to start a new Evrima server via SteamCMD. I am running it on its own machine on the LAN.
I have the server name set to "Plotter Evrima Server" and the Map set to Gateway.
However whenn the server starts, the name comes out as IsleServer and the map is Isla_Spiro. I am not sure what might be wrong.
Can anyone maybe shed some light on what I might have wrong?

[inner dragon]

whats your start command

[weary terrace]

[inner dragon]

probably worth removing the MaxPlayers option and run again

[inner dragon]

o wait, did the dedi server and game get an update on Feb 28th?

lol yeah I think there's something wrong with the current release from steamcmd but I might be wrong. doing some final testing for the management tool I'm making and it's spamming the crap out of invalid URL error loops on a fresh install

fresh install from steamcmd with default ini

[weary terrace]

I did do a fresh install, actually two fresh installs in different directories. Both are doing the same thing.

The folders were completely empty and I ran the .bat file above. I then added in a fresh copy and paste of the game.ini from https://github.com/ksduster/The-Isle-Evrima-ini/blob/main/Game.ini
and made the server name changes. It is starting and I am getting the session started successfully message, but it is not displaying the correct name or map. It is so odd.
I can log in to it, and I see the server window start to scroll when I attempt to log in, butit will not show any dinos to select or let me start the game from the game launch window.

The .bat file will keep spamming a error unless I add the "/Game/TheIsle/Maps/Game/Gateway/Gateway" to the .bat file. After I add that it will complete the startup, but as I stated, it doesnt load the correct name or map.

[inner dragon]

Actually yeah ignore my screenshot, my ini map string was bad

[steel mica]

Windows Server 2022:

In order to run a Isle Evrimaserver on win22 you can try to download Steam and The isle (Client) on the Server ( Dont forget to make it as Evrima not Legacy )
This Step is only needed if its not working. First try the other Steps

In your Game CLIENT ( N:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\The Isle\EasyAntiCheat) you can find Easy Anticheat. Run the Setup to install Easy Anticheat. This fix mostly the Connection Issue.

In the Following Link/Rar File you will find my Saved File for the INI Files TheIsle\Saved\Config\WindowsServer

Also you will find my Start.bat wich Update and Start the Server.

For Virtual Windows 2022 Servers, i added the r2m02.crl That is the Amazon certificate that fixes some Internet Issues.

I hope i could help the most. I made this Tutorial because the Infos are massiv splittet.

[elder yacht]

Did they added a new herbi? Anyone knows the config line to enable it?

Nvm it's on hordtest

[clever arch]

id just like to put out there that I'm looking for 3 admins that will take the role with serious intentions when donations start coming in you'll get a cut of it too but first we need to populate the server dm me if any of you are interested as i know a lot of you struggle making a server so this is a alternative.

[scenic yacht]

bro sv so many hack bruh

[clever arch]

?

[spark moss]

Is there a way i can spin up a server on my pc for me and my friends to play on? we just want to do some dmg tests on all the dinos

[ashen obsidian]

is there a way to find players EOS IDs in server files?

[steady yacht]

Why do you need their EOS ID?

[inner dragon]

with the dedicated server yeah

[ashen obsidian]

rcon bot. be able to kick/ban players from discord if needed. only works with EOS and not steam ID not sure why

[steady yacht]

Works fine with steamid

[echo echo]

How is the wipe corpses packet supposed to be formatted?

Anyone got a plugin or addon to use RCON commands and stuff for evrimas server?

[inner dragon]

plugin or addon or for what? RCON is a client server system, you use whatever client or script you want (and works)

[stone elm]

can you set the days?

[inner dragon]

set the days?

Anyone know a command for body wipes?

[timid portal]

Hello, I have several questions to ask, I don't know if this is where I can ask them but I'll try my luck.

First of all, I would like to know if on Evrima, there is a command for stamina, knowing that everything goes through the admin panel and not the chat commands.

Then, I have a small problem on my server. Here is what I put in my Game.ini:

bUseRegionSpawning=true
bUseRegionSpawnCooldown=false
RegionSpawnCooldownTimeSeconds=30

However, when the player dies, a cooldown of 480 appears so that the player respawns where he was.

Do you have a solution to solve this problem?

[inner dragon]

region cool down seconds has to be the amount of seconds you are from UTC timezone (dont ask, no clue why)

command for stamina no, only through adminpanel

[sonic turret]

I encountered the same issue and had to redo the configs. If you'd like, I can send you a copy of my working ones so you can adjust them to suit your needs.

[weary terrace]

Thank you, Brezz. I am really not sure what it was, but it is working now. I quit trying for a day, and did another wipe and reinstall (it was the fourth time). I set up the game and engine ini files, like before and changed the custom information like before and now it seems to be working. Thanks again for the offer to send the files.

[timid portal]

Ok thanks you 🙏

[inland fractal]

Does the game allow plant/corpse decay settings to be changed in the game.ini?

[peak frigate]

i have mine set to .25

[inland fractal]

Would the game.ini recognize this?

[/Script/TheIsle.ServerGameMode]
ItemDecayTime=600.0
CorpseDecayTime=600.0
CorpseDecayMultiplier=1.0

[peak frigate]

using @steel mica 's .ini

CorpseDecayMultiplier=

[inland fractal]

So that set to .25 represents what time?

[peak frigate]

1/4 default of 1

it would be nice to have a default ini with more info

[inland fractal]

I agree. What i find is base time decay is set to hours?

[peak frigate]

well his ini is CorpseDecayMultiplier=15

so i dont know if higher or lower is better. i assume lower

at .25 it lasted 4 minutes killed carried then dropped

[inland fractal]

hmmm ok thanks

Thats still underTheIsle.TIGameSession? or under a different script?

[peak frigate]

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

using the guide and this ini is how i tweaked my server

however fall damage doesnt seem to work

[inland fractal]

Correct i have all this set up correctly running. Just being picky i guess

You trying to disable fall damage?

[peak frigate]

true or false still causes damage and death

for the Evrima

[inland fractal]

Some lines dont work at all. Its in the back end for the game. We cant change that without perms

[peak frigate]

hence why i said it would be nice to have an updated ini

[inland fractal]

I would gladly do this 🙂

[pliant geode]

hi what does all this mean i building a server

[peak frigate]

CorpseDecayMultiplier=1 //Multiplies how fast corpses decay to despawn - Reduce value to be faster

[inland fractal]

Happen to know what the games base time decay is? We dont want it too quick. Just at max pop and it turns into a all out war. People dont eat corpses. Having to do a corps wipe in Rcon over and over is tiring.

[steady yacht]

I mean you can just make stuff decay faster with server settings

[inland fractal]

I appreciate the reply and am probably thinking to much into it. Inside the game.ini i adjusted the decay multiplier. Is there another?

I also wish there was a way to control the max AI population.

[steady yacht]

There is with AIDensity

For example AIDensity=1

It's a multiplier

[inland fractal]

Correct, currently a x3 AI, but i want to be able to control the MAX AI pop

I tried a MaxAI=300 command but thay didn't work sadly

Like something to control the intervals even at a higher server population. I have intervals set to 80 and density set to 3.

At a lower server pop having that intervals and density pays off. But once you reach max pop it gets kinda crazy

[rancid vessel]

Steam Dedicated Server API Failed to initialize

I get this error when i Try to join. This is in my server console

It is on a windows dedicated server, I can see the server in the list and I have all the needed ports forwarded

This is for evrima

[inner dragon]

You can’t

[inner dragon]

Did you either copy the steam client DLLs or install the steam client on the server?

[rancid vessel]

Yes, I haven't tried restarting but that'll be tomorrow since we have other things running

[inner dragon]

O yeah you gotta restart if you copied all the dll’s into binaries. It only loads them when you load the server

[rancid vessel]

Okay, i'll try tomorrow. If it doesn't work do you mind if I DM you?

[inland fractal]

I figured, I appreciate the reply. Just wish it was possible.

[rancid vessel]

Restart didn't help

That's what I see when I try to join

[inner dragon]

Is this on a windows server machine or just windows desktop

[rancid vessel]

Windows server, I've restarted and I have Steam Running

[inner dragon]

O you probably gotta do that weird thing with downloading steam and then the game. It’s a pinned comment

[rancid vessel]

So I DL the game?

[inner dragon]

Yeah it’s kinda weird, I honestly don’t fully know the steps I just know it’s a weird thing you gotta do on windows server systems

[rancid vessel]

I'll try it and let you know

[inner dragon]

No prob

That’s a thing I gotta code into my server tool for auto install on windows server specific environments

[rancid vessel]

Do I need to restart again, cause it's still not working

Same error

[inner dragon]

Umm whatever that message says

[rancid vessel]

What message?

[inner dragon]

Honestly after installing steam client and game id restart the server fully

It’s a pinned message

[rancid vessel]

Okay

[raw breach]

how do i join a server watch a stream like what i saw bought the game now im like ....

[rancid vessel]

Do I need EAC installed?

[inner dragon]

#server-hosting message

[inner dragon]

What?

[rancid vessel]

Okay, I'll try restarting.

[raw breach]

i just bought the game wondering how i can join a server

[inner dragon]

Play > server browser > select official or unofficial and join

[raw breach]

play> server not found / i can host one but cant find a server

[inner dragon]

You just said a server not specific, is the server even being listed?

[raw breach]

nvm guess i had to restart it or something thanks tho

[inner dragon]

Sick no problem, glad it worked!

[ashen obsidian]

is it possible to have some type of hacker dublicate players names and steam ids?

[stone elm]

what ?

[inner dragon]

I mean possibly but probably not

[shrewd patio]

Namechangers exist as a hack, yeah

[ashen obsidian]

ah ok. had a few people in my server ask for slays but wasnt actually them. was trying to see and verify if there were two different steam IDs but it only showed one.

[inner dragon]

dang you slayed a rando, that's rough

[elder yacht]

Anyone knows how to grow/mutations players using rcon or some other tool?

[keen merlin]

It doesn't exist at the moment, unless you hack the game

[graceful mica]

How do I turn on spawn regions

[tough ember]

[/Script/TheIsle.TIGameSession]
bUseRegionSpawning=true

[graceful mica]

Ohhh okay thank you

[tough ember]

no problem, depending on your servers timezone you will most likely have a cooldown issue with the zones -> #server-hosting message
[/Script/TheIsle.TIGameSession]
RegionSpawnCooldownTimeSeconds=FitValueToYourNeeds

[graceful mica]

Oh gotcha, thanks

[elder yacht]

How come there are servers with growth commands, mutation commands, custom skins etc

[tough ember]

They are messing with the server files/memory.

[keen merlin]

I wish I were smart at that level. I'd love to learn how to work with these things.

[sly root]

h

[elder yacht]

Just my thoughts

[timid bay]

Hey Guys

i have the probelm after I setup my evrima server on my root that i cant connect on to it and i dont have any more ideas. Do you have any ideas and solutions?

[elder yacht]

Check your game logs

Ask your question in #🔧-evrima-troubleshooting-🔧 prob issue with your game

[elder yacht]

It's either a problem with your port forwarding or the steam api

[mild edge]

na4 no patrul and migration, bug visual

[timid bay]

so i installed it new and it doesnt start right it stops there

[inner dragon]

couple things to check/verify. Windows server OS or windows normal (10/11)?

Copied DLL's to binaries folder?

[timid bay]

so its win 10 server

and idk???

[inner dragon]

windows server 10 isn't a thing. 2022? 2025? 2019?

[timid bay]

22

[inner dragon]

cool so checkout this #server-hosting message

[timid bay]

thx i try this

[peak frigate]

make sure you have the game port and quarry ports open

[timid bay]

Thx, it´s working now

Do I understand this correctly? If I set GrowthMultiplier = 1 to 30, will I grow 30 times faster? Or do I need to set it to x2 to grow 50% faster?

I want players on my server to take only 4 hours instead of 8 to grow a croc, without Diet.

[ashen obsidian]

how do i spawn in as a zombie

[peak frigate]

GrowthMultiplier= {Value} Universal multiplier for growth, putting this number too high will stop it from working. (stay below ~40) (Default Value:1)

[willow pulsar]

Coming here after a good 2hrs of troubleshooting a 1st time install of the Isle dedicated server.
I cannot, for the life of me, get a console window to appear after launching the exe. Is this some sort of known issue where I screwed up something simple? I've wiped out all the files and reinstalled a couple times at this point.

I can see "TheIsle" running in processes but i'm confident i'm supposed to see some sort of console/command window

I run dedicated servers for 20+ games and i'm putting my head into my desk tryign to get this thing to go.

oh F!#@$^!@ christ....

*sigh ..... thanks. Feeling nice n' stupid now

[inner dragon]

lol don't worry I'm sure a handful of people have done the same to find out it just needs -log

[peak frigate]

see my two .ini above. edit the game.ini to reflect your server. add game and quarry ports

edit the X for your drives or modify to your save locations, dont forget to edit your game port and quarry port

[elder yacht]

Anyone knows if there is a dedicated discord for server owners? I think thta 1 channel is not enhough for all the questions.

[inner dragon]

Not official, just this channel

[peak frigate]

@steel mica see my bat file above

start /wait X:\theisleserver\TheIsleServer.exe /Game/TheIsle/Maps/Game/Gateway/Gateway?Port=8888?QueryPort=8887?MaxPlayers=40 -log -ini:Engine:[EpicOnlineServices]:DedicatedServerClientId=xyza7891gk5PRo3J7G9puCJGFJjmEguW -ini:Engine:[EpicOnlineServices]:DedicatedServerClientSecret=pKWl6t5i9NJK8gTpVlAxzENZ65P8hYzodV8Dqe5Rlc8 | set /P "=

make sure the firewall and router have these ports open

change X to your drive or modify to your save location

[steel mica]

My Server runs already. I just want to change the Port. My Command gets ignored

[peak frigate]

id imagine you need to relaunch

[steel mica]

Dude

[peak frigate]

i dont use 8888 and 8887 i use 27092 and 27098

[steel mica]

so you mean its the port itself that i should use an other one

[peak frigate]

i belive 8888 and 8889 is used to tvs and are troublesome

yes i belive thats your issue

[steel mica]

let me try

[peak frigate]

i had 8888 for a last oasis server and it would never work

then i check it gets pinged by my tvs in the home every .5 seconds

for your router put the ports in your portforwarding and on the machine's firewall allow incoming and outgoing permissions

i do all 4. incoming udp and tcp port and outing udp and tcp port

[steel mica]

the ports was not the reason. still not working

about forward as i said the server was online and i just want to change the port so i know about forward

[peak frigate]

ports have been a bane of my exsistance, my dedicated server at home hosts. 24 instances of last oasis, return to moria, tf2 man vs machine, ark, 7days to die, rust, dayz, 2 minecraft. terraria. veilhim. vrising, conan.the front, soalmask and probably one or two i missed

[steel mica]

thank you for your time. ill try to find the solution by myself

[peak frigate]

just watch out on the outbound rules the default is block all needs to be changed to allow

[steel mica]

you need to press the button on your computer in order to turn it on

[peak frigate]

well let me grab a flashlight, the power is out...

[steel mica]

why i want to play wise man if u ignore what the one that you "try" to help that he knows already what your talking about and that it NOT the reason.

[peak frigate]

this info is not just for you. it can help others. chill out. im not attacking ur intelligence or your skill or your knewledge. i know nothing about you

[steel mica]

so u answer of my question for others? löol

[peak frigate]

i fixed my server using your inis so yeah it kinda does.

you just missed the quarry port in yours

even gave you props

[steel mica]

i dont miss it, i set it. its ignored by config so i think

[peak frigate]

no its not because no one could connect untill i added it

or the default one is unknown and not open/forwarded

check the task manager, failed isle launches dont force close. you may have a few instances open on isle and it breaks everything

dont get mad just bouncing ideas

snatching the port to a dead executable

[novel hull]

Does anyone here know a developer who can create me a storage bot for my server?

[inner dragon]

If you don’t mind the player save copy paste mechanic it’s pretty easy. Haven’t looked into memory manipulation since there’s no articles and I don’t have the time to reverse that to find it anytime soon. I think someone on here was saying they’re doing it so could always ask for the process send forward onto whoever you have coding for you

[velvet pumice]

I remember that simply copying and pasting PLAYER SAVE in EVMA cannot achieve player storage, PLAYER SAVE has been encrypted, and simply copying and pasting will directly damage PLAYER SAVE

[inner dragon]

It definitely worked when I copy and pasted it, you have to be safe logged but it works

Just did it a few weeks ago

[velvet pumice]

If you are only talking about storing one dinosaur, it can indeed be achieved, but if you try to store multiple dinosaurs, such as when you played TENO with your last dinosaur and want to retrieve CERA from your inventory, when you paste your previous CERA SAVE in, you will find that your CERA SAVE has been damaged

This is the version I tested a long time ago, of course, if the latest version can achieve what you said, it's good news

[inner dragon]

yeah again it's still as simple as copy pasta from one location to another when safe logged. you don't overwrite files you make backups from prior, save that in it's own folder and then copy over the one you want. or really any process you want to do. it's quite simple the only downside is the afe logging part

[velvet pumice]

Thank you. If that's the case, it has indeed been a great help

[inner dragon]

if I get some free time this weekend I'll make a quick video clip showing the in game steps and the server steps for handling the save files that keep the server happy

[velvet pumice]

thx, that is will helpful

[inner dragon]

no prob

[shy bison]

I am currently working on this, you can in fact change dinos editing hexadecimal in sav files

[willow pulsar]

Idk if this is still an ongoing issue for you but I found that adding a port section with the modified ports (see below) to the bottom of the engine.ini file solved my issues. I also removed the ports from the batch/shortcut arguments:

---engine.ini file---

[EpicOnlineServices]
DedicatedServerClientId=xyza7891gk5PRo3J7G9puCJGFJjmEguW
DedicatedServerClientSecret=pKWl6t5i9NJK8gTpVlAxzENZ65P8hYzodV8Dqe5Rlc8

[URL]
Port=7776
PeerPort=27014

---

Another hangup I had was that ?Listen needed to be added to the batch/shortcut argument line right before -log in order for it to work:

---

E:\TheIsle\TheIsleServer.exe -ini:Engine:[EpicOnlineServices]:DedicatedServerClientId=xyza7891gk5PRo3J7G9puCJGFJjmEguW -ini:Engine:[EpicOnlineServices]:DedicatedServerClientSecret=pKWl6t5i9NJK8gTpVlAxzENZ65P8hYzodV8Dqe5Rlc8 | set /P "=" ?listen -log

---

[inner dragon]

you should share your findings so others don't have to deal with that rabbit hole lol

[shy bison]

Still working on this, only uncovered small portion of the file.

[inner dragon]

yeah it's gunna be an exploration for sure

[shy bison]

Looks like we are both running same name scheme for repos and project

[spark moss]

When I go to launch my new server I get this error.

[inner dragon]

already bound log? that's normal

[inner dragon]

idk what else to call mine for now since it's just a normal winform manager. I figure if it gains traction I'll make a new repo for a manager suite with central web management, node deployment on servers, scheduled stuff, etc

[steel mica]

@willow pulsarthank you. ill try it tomorrow

[spark moss]

Ok something is making my server stop then I’ll check the logs again

[inner dragon]

if you're on a windows server OS (not vanilla windows 10/11) you gotta do that weird game download thing that's mentioned in the pinned messages of this channel

[spark moss]

I’m using Ubuntu

[inner dragon]

ah, unfortunately I have not fiddled with the server on linux yet. I know you're gunna have to copy over some .so's from steam client but not sure which ones are needed if it's more or less than the windows machines DLLs

[spark moss]

I used AMP to manage the Isle instance maybe that could be the problem? I’m not sure.

[inner dragon]

never used it, is it downloading the isle legacy or the actual isle EVRIMA via the beta argument on steamcmd?

it does say EVRIMA is supported

[spark moss]

The Isle evirma. This is the other error I’m getting as well.

[inner dragon]

thats typical map errors, quite normal lol

if you're not seeing "<server name> is listening or whatever the full output is then it's missing some sort of library

[spark moss]

I can’t even get the server to boot. It stops after 23 seconds of starting up

[inner dragon]

yeah that's usually a runtime library issue

[spark moss]

I upgraded my server. I didn’t have enough ram works great now.

[inner dragon]

you just said it stops after 23 seconds?

[spark moss]

Yeah that was before I upgraded my VPS with more memory.

[inner dragon]

Okay so it’s working or??

[lyric gust]

Does the server ever call upon the .bak and restore it? I've got early stages of a storage system implemented into a discord bot, but just need more testing

The "storing" system works, gotta really test the restoring.

logouts vs sleep and stuff

[inner dragon]

The .bak from what I’ve seen is the not ever read from. When the primary file is corrupted then it’ll load the bak but if the balls corrupt as well it’ll loop letting to load those files like 5-8 times then generate a new file and start over

[runic cloud]

quick question to any <@&505047238674874368> i'm having some trouble setting a players growth to where they can take the second mutation.
the server seems to only allow me to either full grow something or reset it to baby.
is there a way around this other than telling the player to burn time?

[carmine kite]

I don't know the exact values, but sub is usually around 50-75% for most dinosaurs

Juvenile around 10-30%

[runic cloud]

yea i tried setting their growth to 30% but the server seemed to completely ignore that command, though when i cranked it up they immediately became fullgrown XD

[carmine kite]

Weird

[runic cloud]

could it be related to server growth rates being slightly higher?

[carmine kite]

Idk honestly, it's not impossible

[runic cloud]

fair i'll have a look into that, thank you very much ❤️

[deep remnant]

make sure you have them loaded in your spectator view is the only thing i can offer

[willow pulsar]

Or the reboot solved it 😉
Took me a while but found that server start up hangs were solved with a system reboot almost everytime.

[frank bramble]

Do you know how I can solve the problem that my server does not appear online, only on LAN?

[novel hull]

Open your firewall ports.

[signal basin]

Hello everyone, I have the following problem. I would like to create a The Isle server and have acquired a dedicated root server. I've followed everything so far and the server is running, but I'm having trouble finding it in the game. I think it's because I can only forward ports via the firewall; I don't know how to do it on the root server. Can someone help me? Perhaps someone here speaks German and can help me. It is a Evrima Server

[tough ember]

This was solved with pinned msg

[spark moss]

Before I upgraded my vps I did a reboot 5 times and nothing. It was a ram issue for sure.

[inner dragon]

idk if it's worth mentioning but on idle on a server with 32Gb's of RAM it's using about 9GB's for the server. this'll obviously be different usage depending on how much RAM the system has but I wouldn't run the server on anything less than 16GB

[lyric gust]

On linux, empty and idle

[frank bramble]

I've already opened the ports on both my router and my PC. I don't know if it has anything to do with the fact that my WAN setup has a different IP than my public IP?

[inner dragon]

are you behind CGNAT or assigned a private IP from your provider over PPPoE

[frank bramble]

I think I have CGNAT

I feel that my public IP is different from the WAN setup of my router.

[inner dragon]

you wont be able to host behind that then, you can contact your ISP to see if they're able to set you up on their end for a port forward but if they wont you're kinda screwed. Getting a VPS physically nearby that you can tunnel and route through isn't ideal and will generally add additional latency for everyone but that's also kinda an option

[frank bramble]

So I have to contact my ISP and tell them to give me my public IP and remove me from the CGNAT?

[inner dragon]

well they can handle it on their end in a few ways but ideally yeah they give you a routable public IP direct. They can also setup the gateway from them to you to basically assign an IP of theirs and DSTNAT to your router accordingly but yeah best situation is they give you a routable public

[frank bramble]

Perfect, so when they give me my routable public IP, will my problem be solved?

[inner dragon]

you'll still have to setup the port forward on your router to your server but yes that fixes the issue stopping you from opening it up to the world

[frank bramble]

Thank you very much, I already had that open on my PC and on the router haha ​​so I'll have to reopen the 20 ports I have xd

[ancient reef]

Hello my tech admin is having some issues getting the server up it keeps telling him "Steam Dedicated Server API Failed to initialize" if anyone has run into this issue before?

[ancient reef]

#server-hosting message
this was followed as well and we are still having issues

[inner dragon]

is your server ran on a windows server OS? also you'll need to copy over steamclient DLLs if not

[ancient reef]

Yes to windows server and you were helping him the other day 2doorpapi 🙂 I had free hands and a bit more time to respond so I’m relaying Xp

We switched/upgraded to a new host which the old one had Evrima set up without issue but now this new one keeps throwing errors and issues overall when we tried to get hosting for Evrima set up again

[inner dragon]

for windows server OS you'll want to do this #server-hosting message

[ancient reef]

I sent that I’ll let you know if it works!

[past sierra]

What RCON commands are available for the Evrima server ?

[inner dragon]

Not many #server-hosting message

[novel hull]

Its normal for this game

[whole rampart]

Anyone up to make a server together? DM me 😄

[ancient reef]

We did do that and unfortunately it didn’t fix it ;-;

[inner dragon]

whats the console log show

[ancient harbor]

So idk whats up but for some reason on my server the migrtion zones are not switching at all same with the patrol zones they are always in the same place

One of the MZ is on that one island south of the swamps and I flew there with admin and nothing grows there

[ancient harbor]

would this work on Evrima or is this legacy?

[peak frigate]

@ancient harbor ive only tried on evirma

[ancient harbor]

Okay super I have a server on evrima its why i asked

[ancient harbor]

what do those megamigration zones do?

[peak frigate]

I have no clue I have played only 1 hour lol but my server has been up for my friends for a week or two

[ancient reef]

when we are trying to launch the server?

[inner dragon]

When it’s loading and running yeah

[signal basin]

Hi, I have the following problem: I created a server, but it always starts without Rcon, even though it's enabled. The ports in the firewall are also enabled, and everything works except for Rcon. I'm hosting the server on a dedicated Windows server. Can someone help me?

[brave pewter]

our migration zone is stuck on seahorse island, and the patrol zone is stuck in south plains.
we have restarted the server a bunch, we have changed the times for them, and done basically everything except wipe the server entirely.
our hosting provider is Zap Hosting.
our supposed to be migration zone move is 10,800s (approx. 2hrs or so)

I'd love some assistance with this as soon as possible, thank you so much

[timid bay]

Hi everyone, I hope this is the right section for my question. I'm currently working on a gargen bot for Evrima and just can't get any further. I can't find any commands for the bot on the internet so that players can park their dinosaurs. The bot itself is working but without the codes I can't get any further. Does anyone know anything about it and would be so kind as to help? I've been racking my brains for days and no matter what I do it just won't work. It is a Rcon Bot. I would be very grateful if someone could help me. I assume that these bots are allowed as they can be found on many servers. If this is not the case please let me know as I do not want to get my players and myself into trouble.

[steel mica]

any solution?

[heavy bolt]

is there a chat / command to kil someone or a bit like 0x10 and so?

[bitter hearth]

-1000, is that a Echo request issue?

[lyric gust]

All publically known RCON commands are can be found in the pins

There is no RCON command to "park" a dinosaur

[heavy bolt]

yeah i know i actually need a kill/ grow command or do it some other way like to read the player data?

[steady yacht]

There is no kill, grow, park or any type of comamnds like that. You're SOL for that. They do have a playerinfo command that spews out data on all players in the server though.

[timid bay]

That's not right, there are enough servers that have exactly this in their Discord where they can park dinos in and out of players

[steady yacht]

These servers come up with their unique ways to make it happen. It's not built into the game.

[timid bay]

I am aware of this, of course, but I cannot find anything on the Internet about how to do this.

[steady yacht]

It's because these servers use custom solutions to do so. Whether it's utilizing C++, Javascript or Python, they make the tools that do this.

It's not something you're going to find on a wiki or some random repo.

[rain moat]

can someone tell me what steam dlls i need to copy and where to paste them? I get the LogSteamShared: Warning: Steam Dedicated Server API failed to initialize. error?

ive tried just about every suggestion posted in pins and by users and it doesnt work. Running TCAdmin

the install runs fine from the folder if I launch it via a .bat using remote desktop but throws this error and no one can connect if i start it with tcadmin panel

nvm, just after i posted it [this](#server-hosting message) did the trick. might want to pin incase anyone using tcadmin has this issue. thanks!

[sterile hedge]

Are you able to change group limit settings when hosting your own server?

[gilded pivot]

is there a guide to setting up my own server?

[sterile hedge]

#server-hosting message

[gilded pivot]

so i followed the directions in the pdf but when i run start_server.bat it says filename, directory name or volume label syntax is incorrect

[ripe hare]

Mine rented a server and is giving this message, can anyone tell me why? Is it a problem with the host?

[rain moat]

yes, host issues

i was getting the same error client side until i copied 4 dlls from my steam client to the server

then it worked

not saying thats your issue but its likely. look at your logs and if you see LogSteamShared: Warning: Steam Dedicated Server API failed to initialize. thats likely the fix

[ripe hare]

which client dlls do i need to copy, could you tell me?

Thanks for trying to help me

you can get the DLLs from my github direct if you like

[velvet pumice]

Timed out issue Fix:
1, this is a fix for winserver ,install the STEAM client on your server
2,Then directly use STEAM to install THE ISLE EVMA version
3,Then click on 'Run THE ISLE' (you will find a prompt next to the game launch button saying that STEAM is installing some of the required runtime libraries for THE ISLE, such as net3.5 and so on)
4,after a while u may get a Launch Error hint, Turn off this hint then just run your server and wait for ↓As follows↓ what appear in your server logs
[Session was created successfully]
You can try to join the server now~
try join your server, just see the timed out issue fixed or not

[steel mica]

any hint ?

[velvet pumice]

a higher Ghz CPU

[steel mica]

ya ofc but why i have to force to just 1 cpu i got more

[tough ember]

Idk, maybe the engine doesnt like the 64 core cpu, either way it only utilizes 1 core for the game core if I'm not mistaken, so a high single core ghz cpu is one of the best things to have

[steel mica]

To bad. there is no workaround ?

How to make a .bat file to force to use just 1 cpu? i tryed

start /affinity 1 C:\Gameserver\Isle\TheIsleServer.exe -log | set /P "="

[wraith totem]

Can I post information about my server here?

[steel mica]

I got after a while the Error

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

If i use ALL CPU it looks like this
https://i.imgur.com/Z5Neqq9.png

any fix ?

[tough ember]

just use something like Bill 2's Process Manager to set affinity for example on 2 or 4 cores, experiment

[steel mica]

so i should use a 3th party tool becasue the devs dont want to fix that know issue ?

BTW Windows have this function already, so what is the different ?

[mossy knoll]

my server is having problems with migrations and patrols, they appear but there are no plants on them. How can I increase the number of plants on my server? I have 100 players and many people complain about it.

Cant customize mutation percentages on my server, can anyone help explain?

[granite obsidian]

yes

go to game.ini and you see the mutations

[sullen kayak]

i'm having the same issue on my linux server. Got any updates on this ?

[steel mica]

nope. i gave up, force a server only to use 1 CPU is just lazy programmed/written code .

[steady yacht]

Sounds like you have a lack of understanding on how servers work.

[steel mica]

So tell me then, if u know that better.

Why all other servers works without any Problems but isle wont... Even ark asa works great

can someone help me with this please? When i change the game to evrima i had only black screen, i tried evrything unninstal, shut off the AV delete config but nothing helps, in the config in folder crashreportclient i had this. Can please someoine help me ?

[sweet girder]

While boosting mutations, Once speeds reach about 10 or so more kmh I get kicked by the anti cheat on my server. is there a way I can shut off automatic kicking for speedhack or just in general?

changing the threshold would also be nice if thats an option

[past sierra]

Guys , How much do you all set the PlantSpawnMultiplier to? I want plants to spawn more frequently.

[tough ember]

not a thing for evrima

[tough ember]

That multiplier only increases the amount, not the frequency, there is no frequency setting, as far as I'm aware

[past sierra]

Oh, and what is the maximum value it can be set to? I tried setting it to 100, but no plants spawned.

[tough ember]

No clue about the maximum, but 100x more plants seems a bit over the top, try 10 or 15 🤷‍♂️

[granite obsidian]

is anyone using windowsgsm to build server? how to add RCON

Hey guys, does any of you have the default weather values?
I removed all of them accidentally

[proud cedar]

Will put this here too just in case ^^

#🔧-evrima-troubleshooting-🔧 message

[quartz finch]

Thank you

[echo echo]

Have there been/are there evrima unofficial servers that have successfully implemented a storage/parking bot that do NOT utilize a robot that sits in game & reads the screen and inputs commands via the admin panel?

[steady yacht]

I have a storage but it only works on server restart by replacing the saved dino.

[inner dragon]

yeah, the most user friendly way would be going and modifying the servers memory realtime and the slow non user friendly way is copying player save file after they safe log, you save the server then copy that save file to "storage"

[proud cedar]

So you can't just move/copy the exact save files and then replace the existing ones? How does it work exactly?

[inner dragon]

technically you are doing that, but the player has to safe log and servr needs to save to avoid player data corruption

it's an annoying proccess for backend and user

[proud cedar]

Ah okay...I have been very close to getting it to work then anoyingly lol...as long as it works tho, it's fine I think...just as long as the user does it correctly...only issue is that I set up the save command to run the player data command and store the information of that dino so that there is some information for the user as to what the save slot is (if that makes sense)...so they have to safelog first before extracting the save files?

[inner dragon]

safelog fully yeah

[steady yacht]

It's finicky

Even that doesn't always work.

[proud cedar]

And if the player safelogged then went into the server again and ran the save command?

[inner dragon]

then they have to safelog again, save the server after safelog

[proud cedar]

Hmm, that it anoying...why is that then?

[inner dragon]

that's just how the devs have it coded

[proud cedar]

Yea, fair enough...well, thanks for the help!

[steady yacht]

Even if you save server after safe log, if they keep playing and start a new dino and decide to do their old one. It will just say corrupted when trying to load it in.

Replacing the file with a safe logged works on a fresh server restart, but actively trying to load in new dinos after the server has already cached an existing one does not work.

[inner dragon]

I've gotten it to work without a restart no issues. you just have to do it in a very specific series of steps

it's really just not worth the hassle imo, but people want storage so do whatever works for you

[polar fulcrum]

Guys, what config increases server plant spawn rate

?

[inner dragon]

o my bad that's AI, plant only has the one multiplier

PlantSpawnMultiplier=1

[polar fulcrum]

Thank you mate

I will set it at like 5 and see how it works out

[lyric gust]

Maybe kicking is better

I built the logout, move file system but havn't done much testing

Move the savs to new directory and able to restore them

Tested once and it worked, but like I said... would need more testing

[steady yacht]

My storage system works fine, but the issue is the server remembering the users previous stats then corruption upon loading in. I've done some insane testing with it already.

There has been certain instances where if you make the same dino then safe log, load dino in, and reconnect, sometimes it won't corrupt.

Then other times where that same process will just load your last dino in with it's previous growth. It's weird lol

[lyric gust]

I think the general consensus is the dedicatd server for the game is uhhhh... special

The most consistent method is to probably have a robot issue the grow commands in game

Which is probably another headache

Unless there's undocumented RCON commands, but I have had no luck finding them yet

[steady yacht]

I already have an in-game client that can do those functions. I just prefer not to go that route do to needing a secondary machine to run an instance of the game.

[lyric gust]

Agreed. Unfortunately probably the most stable route

I’m no coder though, I just got carried away with LLM to get what I got 😂

Was a fun learning experience

[steady yacht]

You're MayInCode?

[lyric gust]

You a detective

😂

[steady yacht]

I just have a thing setup where I get notifications when people fork and do commits to one of my projects lol

[lyric gust]

Ahhh did you make that original bot

[steady yacht]

Yes, but it's old and outdated

[lyric gust]

Its how I learned the basic

I made the AI read all your stuff and helped me add stuff

[steady yacht]

Hey man if it's a tool you can utilize to get the job done, why not.

[lyric gust]

Got population control, leaderboard, kill feed, storage (kinda)

The population control was fun to make

I wanted to to a player map, might still idk

[steady yacht]

Was a work in progress.

I need a larger server to actually start seriously testing things.

[lyric gust]

That’s the true struggle, good data

Had an idea of detecting over grp limits too, but withouth a popular server it'd take forever to get right... and the fact I have to fight with AI a lot

[strange ruin]

hey is their a discord for server hosts to share ban lists? Im a server owner for an unofficial server and I share my ban list with a few other owners. Is this something thats established here yet?

[steady yacht]

Sounds like a cool project to do.

[strange ruin]

Im going to start putting together a group. send me a dm if youre interested in joining.

[lyric gust]

That's good idea

[proud cedar]

I am starting to think it isn't worth it as well...I might just make it so that the player only has 1 save slot that can be used when their dino dies. Trying to get the server to swap out saves just isn't working for me. The files always become corrupt no matter what I do.

[novel hull]

Not possible using save files to transfer saves.
They will become corrupted in some way.

[proud cedar]

Thank you for responding, but apparently it is possible, you just need to go about it the right way...I'm trying a few different things

[novel hull]

Good luck, the only way me and my buddy have found out rn (To some working extent) is by reading and modifying the actual server memory.

[velvet pumice]

yea bro, i tested it many time like u too, sometimes it just said Save file is corrupt

[velvet pumice]

just hope that official will update a Grow RCON command maybe

[velvet pumice]

check DM bro

[proud cedar]

When you restore a save file, are you sending server save before or after the file is replaced? Also, I take it you are just downloading and uploading the file and are you deleting the old save files in the servers directory before uploading the new ones? Sorry for all the question, I just wanna get this right

[amber fox]

#server-hosting message

If windows server this was a working setup 6 mo ago.

[inner dragon]

AIO manager, download it, hit start, enter server info, and that’s it.

Scheduled RCON tasks and remote control are still on my to do list but the core functionality is there. It’s all described on the GitHub page

Also only windows for now, it’ll take me a little bit to make a console app for Linux to do the same thing. Eventually if the project is popular I’d just make a central management website (system) that can control whatever manager you add to it

[ocean swallow]

So let's say i can only do rcom commands for now? and i'm guessing that i can't schedule a server restart or automatic announcements?

Honestly i'm trying to learn how to do stuff with rcon commands and add plugins to a server, such as heat map etc, but i don't know where to start lol

[ocean swallow]

Alright, will look it up, ty

[inner dragon]

RCON commands aren’t a thing yet but probably this weekend if I get a couple hours of free time it’ll be a thing. It does have auto restart but not an option on the UI yet since I won’t do restarts without sending the save command.

If you want to dev your own stuff just checkout the RCON documentation as to what you have to do to use it. I’m just using someone else’s library for the RCOn since there’s basically zero good commands besides announce, kick/ban, and save. Someone here was doing a heatmap, I don’t remember who it was though

Also if the server binary crashes, the manager had an option for auto restart you can enable/disable but the RCON stuff needs done before setting up the nightly restarts and what not

Also my full source code is public on the GitHub page so you’re always welcome to fork or clone locally and do what you want with it

[amber fox]

If you have issue with server crashing at 15 players and it's linux, it's an ongoing issue, we found switching to windows server resolves it.

The windows server is unfortunately slower then the linux one, but it has allpwed us to play.

(Conflict with linux vs epic sefver, devs are from what I was told aware.)

[umbral spear]

Server on Windows, I'm thinking of buying an additional server (I have a server room at home) I gave the virtual machine ( VPS ) 12 cores and 8.5 GB of RAM and still the same.
I have server plates that spin over 11,000 i dont like ssd 😦

..aa ... There was no one on the server ....

[inner dragon]

spinning disk will never beat ssd's, especially proper nvme's. I'd suggest throwing 16GB's of RAM at the minimum though

RegionSpawnCooldownTimeSeconds=30 //Region cooldown max time.```

if you don't want cooldown, the time in seconds has to be seconds from UTC time regardless of cooldown is enabled or not

[coral onyx]

thank you for the help !!

[wind siren]

after the update my server isnt appearing in the list

anyone can help? its running normally in the log

it seems to not be updating using the isle dedicated server directly from steam

[inner dragon]

a few people have posted with that issue, I'm guessing it's related to the back to back patching yesterday and today but I could be wrong

[viral ridge]

The respawn timer not chnageing for the server it suck at 300 mins

[inner dragon]

yes, which is why I mentioned this

[steady yacht]

I am not really supporting that bot anymore. It requires a specific game panel called Pterodactyl and will not work without it.

I am probably going to just publish the updated bot soon enough that has a link system, dino storage, and heatmap/map location for players. I don't really have time to keep working on it.

[elder yacht]

Anyone knows what the encryption of the .sav files are?

[novel hull]

Does this dino storage also require the players logging out and has potential risk of losing save?

[novel hull]

Nobody knows. Except few people that gatekeep

[elder yacht]

Yes

I don;t understand the secretcy with the hosting. If you want people to play your game, then make it easier for hosters! it's simple thinking. Make some docs, how to read the files, how to edit it. How make the game more suitable for more players instead of just the officials.

[elder yacht]

That's true, they aren't obligated. Well, I gave it my best shot. Time to move to other methods.

As Echo of extinction isn;t near a release. I am willing to pay to know how to decrypt and restore the .sav files. So, if anyone knows how, send me a DM with a price.

[shy bison]

First 32 bytes is unique, like it would be AES-128, 32 bytes to 96 is userid. From that info you can make storage system

[viral ridge]

The respawn timer not chnageing for the server it suck at 300 mins

[steady yacht]

No

[novel hull]

That sounds very promising!

[coral onyx]

shane and I have been working on the spawn timer for quite awhile now we matched it to utc which we have done and it is still giving us 300 plus min we have tried removing the timer completely still giving us the same issue is there anyone that could help us get this right it is really being a pain, I am very new to all the server stuff

[elder yacht]

Change your server timezone to UTC.

[inner dragon]

it's your systems timezone offset from UTC in seconds

[coral onyx]

we will try that thanks

[viral ridge]

that what that says

[inner dragon]

your config file from your screenshot shows you have timer set to 30 seconds

[viral ridge]

yea so what would i change that to

[inner dragon]

UTC offset in seconds

[viral ridge]

so if i add TimeZoneOffset=0 wil it work

[inner dragon]

should work since your system is using UTC

might need the full 0000 but you can try 0 first

[viral ridge]

it still stuck on

[inner dragon]

try setting your system to the actual timezone it's in then setting the offset to that

also could be completely different need for linux

timedatectl or tzdata depending on your falvor of linux

[viral ridge]

that timedatectl

[inner dragon]

yeah that's what you can use to change the system timezone

[round wave]

whom do i contact about someone trying to make a copy of a server?

[viral ridge]

That be good hope to see this soon

[inner dragon]

copy?

zip the root folder, unzip where you like, enjoy

[round wave]

using the same name, concept ect.

[pseudo turtle]

Anyone know how to switch off the chickens that spawn when you spawn as a juvie?

[novel hull]

Same happened for me, some swedish kid ran a server on hes own pc at hes home trying to steal our players

[round wave]

know what to do about that or who to contant, i contacted the community admins

[novel hull]

Nothing to do about

[round wave]

gotcha, i'll just hope for a reply and file a copyright for our name

[velvet pumice]

same as my server too, someone run a samename server with mine,Tricked some of our server players into wasting their time on their server with underhanded tactics

[strange ruin]

Im working to build my own storage system separate from what has been established. any tips?

If there is something that is publicly available?

[lyric gust]

What do you mean by separate from what has been established ?

[strange ruin]

creating my own storage bot. If something is publicly available I wont bother

[lyric gust]

Nothing public that I am aware of

I made one that moves the sav files around, but not enough data to test. I believe that is not working every time

[strange ruin]

Phil youre a member of my server lol. Land after time is now DINOPOLIS

[lyric gust]

I am :)

[strange ruin]

well now you know what im working on behind the scenes lol

[lyric gust]

I offered a temp server when you were down

I forked a current discord bot and added a bunch too it

[strange ruin]

I thank you for that 🙂 we got it back up and running something about linuix based servers having issues with epic game services.

[lyric gust]

but my server empty

for now

[strange ruin]

Dm'd u

[mystic wind]

Hi Is there any author of some bot for Injection and Dino storage ? We have server hosted on our dedicated machine on Debian

[viral ridge]

is there a way when people join the server it will auto send them a dm in game

[cloud copper]

you mean welcome message ?

[viral ridge]

Yes

[steady yacht]

Yes there is a way

[lyric gust]

Direct message is an rcon command, you can initiate on a server join

I don’t think the e function is built in to server though

[steady yacht]

Can literally just have your tool monitor the playerlist output and send a message to any new player. I have it setup where people can just type !discord in-game and the bot will send the discord link through a direct message.

[lone palm]

Name of server I’ll join

[cloud copper]

i dont know how to setup that server bruh ... Moria ARK working that one can't...

[lyric gust]

US Mayhem, it’s posted in unofficial advertising

[magic vessel]

does anyone know what the best option for hosting a server on is?

[cloud copper]

Rent server as manual setup is mess and harmful stressful and time eater...

[neat bough]

Anyone have any thoughts on why my server shows on the unofficial list but I cant connect to it? I get this result. I have 7777-7779 forwarded, along with 10000 and 8888. This is on a dedicated box right beside me.

[cloud copper]

@neat bough you mean that

[neat bough]

im not able to connect to my server, get that error, trying more things

[viral ridge]

dose anyone know how to set up a welcome message when a player joins

ANy idea what this indicates about me not being able to connect to my dedicated server tha tis beside me?

Server shows on client, click connect, enter password, get the above and the connect times out after 2 min

[neat bough]

This is in the log too, not sure it matters?

LogSteamShared: Warning: Steam Dedicated Server API failed to initialize.```

its frustrating cause other steam servers run fine

ISSUE SOLVED: It didnt want to run The Isle at same time as Palworld was running.....not sure how to fix that, but was able to log in when i shutdown Palworld server

[neat bough]

Fixed it by adding ?QueryPort 27016 to Isles start, so it didnt conflict with palworld query (steam defaults to 27015)

[neat bough]

that guide is kinda out of date

[steady yacht]

Does MOTD still work with evrima?

Actually let me just test it

[neat bough]

Unsure, but i know all those .ini files dont get created for instance (just finished getting my evirma all working)

[steady yacht]

It use to be something you had to make. Like create a MOTD.txt and put it in a certain directory.

[tough ember]

doesnt work for evrima

[neat bough]

That steam guide is semi useful but only semi, the pinned pdf here is better for evirma

[steady yacht]

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

This guide is up to date.

[neat bough]

The whole static ip thing isnt needed.

[steady yacht]

Who cares? It's a guide to help new people.

Write a new guide and post it if it's a problem. 🤷‍♂️

[neat bough]

Naaa 🙂 that guide just seems to have copied a fair amoutn from the older one. I mean it works for folks, great 🙂

the whole QueryPort thing kicked my ass for 2 days though, heh, didnt realize two diffent steamcmd games needed their own ports.

[steady yacht]

All my servers are dockerized using Pterodactyl.

[neat bough]

yeah, im old and cantankerous and never got aroudn to using docker

woulda prvented my problem though

[steady yacht]

https://pterodactyl.io/

[neat bough]

bah, dont you go trying to teach me new tricks

[steady yacht]

https://github.com/pterodactyl-installer/pterodactyl-installer

[neat bough]

besides, that uses up 2 or 3 CPU cycles 😛

[steady yacht]

Automates the whole process lol

I have a node I use as a controller

So I got a cheap $5 vps that controls all my machines. Then I setup wings on the bare metals where the actual game servers are hosted.

[neat bough]

yeah, im not that serious, just host dedicateds for whatever im playing at the moment on my previous desktop

so an i7-7700k with 32G ram is still better than most commercial hosting

[steady yacht]

Oh okay.

[neat bough]

occassionally ill set up a server for a smaller streamer to be nice, hence why i had a palworld running with noone logged in

[steady yacht]

I just put aside $100/mo for my personal servers. So I got my cheap bare metal that does my game servers, and 2 vps for my websites and panel. xD

[neat bough]

yeah, 57 now, so not as serious as i once was

[steady yacht]

34 here. I spend most of my free time just doing random techy stuff

[neat bough]

yeah, i once was much deeper doign tech, coding, etc, now something has to really pique my interest

[steady yacht]

for me my interest is just creating tools for people to use

I did this for evrima, but I haven't pushed updates in a while; https://github.com/dkoz/evrima-bot

[neat bough]

my last big project, for dual universe for a couple years
https://github.com/Archaegeo/Archaegeo-Orbital-Hud

and yeah, you do things and folks stop using so you stop updating 🙂

In my youth i made the Hardcore Ruleset for NWN

[steady yacht]

Well that's the beauty of open source lol

Someone else with some knowledge can just pick it up.

[neat bough]

yep

[steady yacht]

Going to release the code for heatmaps and other things sometime this week.

[steady yacht]

I don't offer support through this discord server. Please use official channels.

[neat bough]

@steady yacht do you know, for more than 1 admin does each SteamID go on its own AdminsSteamIDs= line?

Or can you comma them?

[viral ridge]

so it
AdminsSteamIDs= yourid
AdminsSteamIDs= otheradmin
AdminsSteamIDs= soon like this

[neat bough]

thanks shane

[viral ridge]

np

[neat bough]

same for VIP's too i assume

[viral ridge]

yea

[neat bough]

is there an in game shutdown command? I didnt see one on the list

[steady yacht]

I don't think so. I just utilize the api for pteroactyl to send a save then shutdown to the server.

[neat bough]

know why this shows in the log ?
[2025.03.30-19.52.04:927][382]LogTheIsleNetwork: Error: Unregistered player.. Steam Id: XXXXXXXXXXX

its me, my steam ID, and im admin, but that shows in red (error)

[cloud copper]

how to add server on lan via steam browser ?

[wanton belfry]

does anyone know how to add automatic announcements that happen in intervals?

[steady yacht]

Yes but you have to code it and use RCON.

[wanton belfry]

Would u mind potentially dropping me a DM on how to set it up? Or a link to somewhere that can show me? Any help is appreciated.

[golden flare]

Just use the evrima manager, got built in automated announcements

[wanton belfry]

thank you!

[cloud copper]

Where it is

[golden flare]

In app directory

[cloud copper]

Where

What app

[lyric gust]

Probably this, dev is in here. https://github.com/Crash0v3r1de/the-isle-evrima-manager

[cloud copper]

Am I'm using bat so

[golden flare]

In the discord app directory, just search for evrima manager

[inner dragon]

it's worth noting the automated RCON portion is NOT coded into production yet. I have to finish that functionality posibly this week

it's listed as aknown issue on the release page

[round wave]

server is still experiencing crashes around 15 players. any idea?

[sudden crest]

I did figure out why admins were not working it was a spelling error on your part and there was an issue where omniraptor was not turned on but I fixed that one as well.

[cloud copper]

check standby memmory if is full

[inner dragon]

whats the error? I can fix it next release no problem

o I think I see it, no Omniraptor code in the parse dyno class code

[sudden crest]

so in this file the AdminSteamIDs needs to be AdminsSteamIDs and omniraptor was missing

@inner dragon

[inner dragon]

ooooo yeah the ini itself, I'll tweak that real quick. I added the Omniraptor code as well

[sudden crest]

i believe those were the only issues i have found so far but if i see anymore ill let you know and one question if rex and trike come out do i just need to add the names like i did for the omniraptor in the same file?

[inner dragon]

dope, yeah unfortunately if the UI doesn't have it yet manually adding is the only work around for now. I should probably add a "add missing dyno" option. I guess fortunately that doesn't happen too often

just remember anytime you tweak the game server settings via manager it'll overwrite any changes in the Game.ini itself

[sudden crest]

i was just curious if thet is where i needed to add them or if somewhere else is where untill yo get an update for it

[inner dragon]

nope just the Game.ini directly like normal works

[sudden crest]

well when i did that when the server started it would change them back on me

[inner dragon]

yeah if the manager is loaded with saved settings via manager it'll re parse the Game.ini. I can always add an option to not do that next release

[sudden crest]

i could not figure it out at first since it kept changing on me

[inland fractal]

This would be extremely helpful. As neither of the two seem to be the same setting. If I tweak something in the settings, it reformatted the whole game.ini

But I'm sure it's not the same

[inner dragon]

what do you mean reformatted it? it's quite a static code for saving the ini file. Also just worth noting you can always post the issues on the Github page

[inland fractal]

I had fixed it as had a save of my most recent game.ini....
But for instance,
The settings next to the game.ini have different variables within. Like I coded a x3 server. So game ini shows x3. But the settings show 1. I found just ignoring the settings tremendously helped. Lol

Any changes within the settings reformat my game.ini to default

So just best to avoid it

[inner dragon]

hmm I'll look into that before release next version with the RCON tasks

[cloud copper]

Hey have question are you also unable to search servers via ip:port?

[brave shadow]

How can I add grow commands to my server?

[round wave]

it wasnt, still no improvement.

[dusky sapphire]

best yt vid tutorial on how to set up a server?

[lyric gust]

Not sure about videos, but this may help #server-hosting message

There's also game panels like Pterodactyl or AMP that you may find useful.

[lament musk]

Does anybody in on Evrima have a working Dino Storage System?

[heavy badge]

There is almost no information found, and some got it working correctly for envirma, but it seems it is gated.
I have been working on a method of doing it for the past week but no 100% reproduceable solution yet.

[mystic wind]

@steady yacht Soory fo ping but I need help with your Evrima bot. I have my env like this
My problems : player database not found ( I have linked mysql to pterodactyl with active account)
Cant link steam id
Any of new command from your last update is not show and not work

[round wave]

servers still crashing randomly, this appeared on the last player death right before it ended up crashing. could it be the cause of the crashes, if so does anyone know a fix?

[hybrid socket]

Anyone now how or if we can increase the tick rate on the server through the Game.ini?

I've been messing with it for the last hour and can't seem to figure it out.

[steady yacht]

Sorry I don't offer support through this discord.

[lyric gust]

oh you pushed an update koz, cool

i'll have to take a peak

[mystic wind]

Is any place ? Where I can ask you for support ?

[cloud copper]

have problem cannot find by online service QUERRY port ... or server is offline but in game evryone see that server and can connect any idea why cannot add server to server tracker servcies ?

[steady yacht]

Because Evrima is not Legacy. It does not have an official query port. You have to use the rcon server info command.

[steady yacht]

Any place but this discord.

[cloud copper]

rcon or querry (manual added) nothing change
