I don't even think it would

#

I mean you could enable all verbose logs and see if you find errors in there

#

but you see your server in list, right ?

hollow arch
#

yes it shows up

lethal jolt
#

just data acquisition failed or -1000 ping , right ?

#

and like NOBODY was ever able to connect ?

#

not even once ?

hollow arch
#

yes latelyy it just doesnt do anything when u try to connect

lethal jolt
#

how many times did you try ?

#

real question šŸ˜ sometimes you have to insist, it's finicky

hollow arch
#

a bunch me and a friend spammed it.like i said im stummped. i have a 1gb internet connection, also have 3080, 5800x3d, andd 32 gb ram so i know its nothing hardware related

lethal jolt
#

wait it worked at least once in the past ?

hollow arch
#

no never got it to work

lethal jolt
#

because the server list is really well done, we

#

ha okay

#

hmm not sure then

#

wait, you said you have other servers hosted on the same machine, can you check if another service is using the port already ?

#

dunno what would be the command for a windows server, but surely there's one to see all ports used and for which service

hollow arch
#

i actually went through and shut down all other servers and deleted their services thinking the same thing

lethal jolt
#

could also be another app, not especially a gameserver (but chances are low I guess)

hollow arch
#

only thing i porting now is whats in that screen shot

lethal jolt
#

you can dm me serer name if you want I can try to see if I can join

hollow arch
#

this is why i resorted to ai and that was a mess

#

ok

hollow arch
#

i got it working guys thanks to @lethal jolt had to open a port for steam 27015 and now able to connect

lethal jolt
#

you're welcome, enjoy server šŸ‘

hollow arch
#

also could be having a password breaks the connection

hi I'm having problem accessing the server in the game it either tells me that the server is full or I have lost the connection, dose anyone know anything about this issue ?

Hey folks, I running a dedicated server, I have all the port rules set (with them actively listening), played around with multiple ports, dropped the firewall completely just cannot get the server to show on the listing and unsure why, we literally switched providers b/c we thought it was them and it is happening again. Any others dealt with similar issue or have a possible solution?

@solar snow i apoligise for the tag, but are the developers aware of such an issue going on even in the official servers where no mod/storage system is implemented?
I've done some more digging and found a bit more info if you'd add me then possibly you can send it over to the devs?

The bloody screen seems to happen when first growing to prime, and healing won't remove it, but if you de-age under 87% the blood goes away and you can grow back to 100 and it won't come back.

# raven fractal Im trying to make a discord bot for my server and I just canā€™t figure it out nor...

Since I've noticed a spike in "developers" I'd like to clarify some info for those who want to mod the game, have a Discord bot, and other similar custom content.

As unfortunate it is to say, nearly half if not more of the people in here trying to sell their product or services just use AI. Which I'm not saying is a bad thing whatsoever, I am saying that you can do it too and not pay a single dime to these people.

These AI developers in most cases just have the AI make it and sell stuff. But it can be risky since AI code can be messy and insecure. It doesn't consider situations unless you mention it.

But I will note some things.

Nearly most of the AI made stuff is in Lua because of UE4SS. This alone is not safe and can be really buggy.

I'd recommend C++ (you can even use AI if you really wanted to) to learn and just use UE reflection.

UE4SS's Lua framework adds delay and doesn't have full support for certain functions or capabilities.
(and it's open to attacks).

So please be careful with who you trust and spend money on.

subtle thorn
#

are you trying to sound smart or something??

#

so youre telling me C++ calling K2_DestroyActor on a stale actor wouldnt crash the server huh?

#

cuz its C++

#

mate how about u keep quite

#

mans mad that others are selling mods cheaper than him

#

anyone that wants a full mod bundle SkinMod, DinoStorage, PlayerStats and a commandbridge and a Body drop mod hmu cheap as it gets, not the thousands these muppets are trying to charge

#

UE4SS Lua is open to attacks is straight up factually wrong for server side use

#

Use UE reflection tf do you think ue4ss lua does ???

#

magic????

#

and how funny for a guy with a vibecoded website and a .dev domain to complain about ai use

weary garnet

The Isle Redesigned Player PDA Concept (credits ay0)

Original idea and concept goes to ay0 in The Isle's Discord.
I reconstructed the design theme in Unreal Engine 5 to mod it in-game. It is completely functional, but does have a few issues to be ironed out.

THIS WAS MADE IN ~4-6 HOURS. This is a proof of concept meant for the developers to see.

lethal jolt
#

I'm not talking about translation issues

#

More like, your AI is blatantly lying

#

I just had a quick glance but from the top of my head: RCON commands are just hallucinated (like 0x14 is NOT teleport it's get playables list if I remember well), and it says it's impossible to hook uFonctions like K2_PostLogin etc. but it's perfectly fine, it's even better to use existing uFunctions rather than tampering with memory directly

#

etc.

#

I stopped reading at some point

#

Because I don't use uess and lua I mod for linux so we have platform differences

#

but it's nice of you to share the "recipes"

subtle thorn
#

the byte command map was given to me and yes i should add a disclaimer that i didnt check myself since the same file was used by multiple ppl i just made a big assumption that is fair
K2_PostLogin might be overstated it didnt work on paths that i personally tried

#

i do agree on using ufunctions over mem hooks

#

thank you for pointing it out

lethal jolt
#

You're welcome but please double-check what you post publicly online, especially when you claim "Community reference" (not your call to call a resource a reference by the way, more like, has to come from the users finding it helpful IMO :P)
I think it's better to say less but verified, rather than a lot but questionable. The reader will lose trust in the material otherwise. It causes more harm than good I think.

#

I mean it's the internet you do what you want, you can ignore my comment

subtle thorn
#

do you happen to have a working byte map for rcon? if not i will figure it out myself when i have more time

you can start by the official documentation shared in the pins of this channel

# RCON Communication Protocol

**Last updated:** April 28, 2026

---

This communication protocol is TCP/IP based between RCON clients and The Isle dedicated servers.

The most common use of RCON is to allow server owners to control their game servers without direct access to the machine the server is running on. In order for commands to be accepted, the connection must first be authenticated using the server's RCON password, set in `Game.ini` (see below).

**CONFIGURATION SETUP**

The configuration for RCON is set through the Game.ini file; here is an example of the available configuration settings.

\[/Script/TheIsle.TIGameSession\]  
bRconEnabled=true  
RconPassword=Password123  
RconPort=1000

hey guys, I posted this earlier in #isle-discussion and an admin recommended I post it here. I am currently making an addon for the isle that adds discord rich presence, I was initially just making this for me and my friends but they said I should share it. It currently automatically tracks you dinosaur/growth/time of day/server and displays it on discord while you play, I am also planning to add a bunch of stuff to it that tracks your in game stats and a few more features! I would love to put this on an open source repository and share with people if anyone is interested. Feel free to DM me if you have any questions about how it works or whatever.
also as per server rules I am not trying to market or sell this to anyone, I would be happy to share it for free.

it's honestly really simple to get a tool to auto scan the images of discord servers if they want to block AI images; anyways, I dont want to get in trouble arguing in the wrong place. I just think that enforcement should be fair as you said.

Iā€™m certainly not looking for troubleā€”not in the slightest.
However, I simply feel that unjustified AI flags should at the very least be reversedā€”or that someone should simply reach out and ask for clarification.

In my view, simply deleting messages based on the assumption that they were AI-generated is an act of pure arbitrarinessā€”something that is completely unnecessary.
Especially considering that for over a week now, Iā€™ve been posting the exact same text and the exact same imagesā€”and NOW theyā€™re getting deleted?!

<@&401466542140817419> I've a simple question.We're running a dedicated server of the isle with the belonging tool. We want to add a script for auto updates. Do anybody know witch AppID we need to use to get the Auto update working? Can we use the same as the isle dedicated server tool or do we need the one of the game or a separate one for auto updates?

So is this channel for spreading around your server/discord or is it for bug reports and testing related to server hosting ?

naive onyx

The seconed one.

scarlet goblet
#

As a server admin, how do I use the commands? I know a few of the commands, but I'm not sure how to apply them. So for example if I wanted to heal a dinosaur in front of me, can I do that with the "Heal" command?

languid tusk
#

They said in the Update: Added: Developer Console /w various commands for fast testing and debugging of issues. At some point in the future, server owners / admins and developers will all be able to use the console for various commands.
So they arent/shouldnt be working atm i guess.

Anyone have any recommended specs for a server box? Searchin for parts atm

little trench
#

When you have maps like v3 8+GB to load up the map, and other maps on workshop that are 16x16 in size that can take up 12+GB just to load without players. Plenty of RAM needed.
I use an e3 1270 @3.80 GHz it is acceptable, though something with a stronger single core performance would run servers better. A lot of rave over 7700K's with other owners.

narrow spear
#

hosting through ping and only 1 of my servers will show up. one is sandbox which shows the other is survival. ping insists its the isles side. it shows eventually after i refresh 15 to 20 times. any thoughts

scarlet goblet
#

Depends on what you were doing prior to waiting for it to show. Were you adding a mod? Changing the map?

narrow spear
#

its all vanilla. i did have experimental features checked but since turned that off and it still doesnt show

scarlet goblet
#

Ok so they are currently not showing? Did you buy them recently?

#

By refreshing are you talking about in game refresh or restarting the actual server?

narrow spear
#

it was a deathmatch server but after the patch and mods broke i changed it over this am. pings side says its good on there end. deleted all mods as they reccomend. refresh in game to get an updated server list

scarlet goblet
#

Was it on another map and did you move it back to V2 in the command?

yup its on v2. i even deleted the mod map command line

after you installed it it should show?

scarlet goblet
#

Does anyone know the min/max of these settings?

ServerAIMax=
ServerAIRate=

naive onyx
#

AIMax is 600 AI rate 20.0 for the max

#

last I checked

scarlet goblet
#

And just to confirm, MAX is how many can be on the map and once.
Rate is the amount who spawn at X time or X time one thing spawns?

naive onyx
#

AI spawn rate is the speed of which they spawn I think

scarlet goblet
#

At minutes I guess?

naive onyx
#

not sure

#

20.0 is fastest tho

#

1.0 is slow

scarlet goblet
#

Hmmmmmmm

naive onyx
#

with having max ai I'd say 300 is the sweet spot if you want alot of ai but keep the ping at a steady rate

tropic pine
#

For anyone who uses ping perfect, can you tell me what the difference is between their 'extreme performance' servers which they charge an extra 20$ for, and the CPU Priority which if you choose 'High Priority' it's an extra 15$. Also what is generally needed for a smooth experience if you were to start with say a 30 slot server with them? I'm someone who doesn't know enough or have the hardware to do my own server so I have to do it through a third party. So please don't suggest this as a 'solution'. I just want to better understand the differences and what the isle specifically needs to run smoothly for people. Or can anyone suggest a good trusted alternative to ping perfect as they are pricy it seems.

little trench
#

Correct me if I am wrong.
Priority does not make your server run faster or better just by having it. What it does do is give you a great share of the CPU resources when other are pulling on the systems resources. Some instances servers may randomly spike and your server will be give the resource where others without the Priority won't and their servers may lag. System not being used to full capacity you won't notice a difference, however some providers have a habit of over selling their servers and have too many users on the one machine where the Priority will take effect, Ping Perfect sure seem to be one of these guys that do this from experience..

tropic pine
#

Thanks. That makes a level of sense. So now I have to wonder what their 'extreme performance' means in terms of server. That you have to choose when you choose a server location. I assume that it's hardware specs but they don't tell you squat about what those specs are so I don't know if the 20 dollars they charge actuall does anything or if it's just a way to bleed people of money.

little trench
#

Would suggest go without it, check server performance, you can always upgrade (Should be able to anyways :P)

tropic pine
#

I just wish there were more options in terms of providers. Wish black box did, I'm still in contact with them trying to get them to pick up the isle as a game they host.

Greetings - I thought this channel was for server promotions, but I guess it's a troubleshooting channel.... I am encountering a problem trying to start up my server. It gets stuck on UPDATING MODS. But there are no mods, vanilla server. How do I get past this? Also note, I have set the param -nosteam as well.

#

Note, the same machine used to run the dedicated server very well up until sometime in the Fall last year.

#

@merry urchin I use Dell PowerEdge 2950's they are a tad older, but they handle dedicated servers well.

little trench
#

Isle struggles with player count on an e3-1270, more so >players >bodies. Bodies are majority of the lag.
Not sure mods were fixed completely since last engine update

eternal breach
#

@cunning ocean are players unable to join after the mod update section in the log?

little trench
#

The server also isn't stuck, load up and player can connect. Just a visual thing due to -nosteam

eternal breach
#

I've seen them not log mod update progress sometimes as well but players should still be able to play normally

#

@little trench any idea if bodies are causing network congestion problems before being eaten, after, or just always?

cunning ocean
#

Haven't been able to see it in the server list, even if I left it going for a while.... Ports are forwarded and firewall is setup. Ran a The Isle server fine with the same hardware and network setup back in the fall.

eternal breach
#

make sure you aren't running with -nosteam still, it wont register it with the master server otherwise

cunning ocean
#

Hm ok, so just ignore the SteamSPI warnings?

#

API

little trench
#

Always.
Paint a picture. Going back a little bit, 80+ in sandbox runs well first 5 minutes starts to lag, death everywhere. bodies not being eaten. Some get eaten and leave the carcass. Just the bodies themselves make the lag.
Dead body timer will remove bodies but no the carcass and that'll slowly make lag too xD

The above screenshot on the focused window is with -nosteam

eternal breach
#

take off -nosteam, launch it, and post a log of the warnings in here ill take a look

#

@little trench okay thanks, looks like recoding the corpse system will be task #1 for optimization then

little trench
#

Seem like what you haven't done in that case is set a separate ?Port & ?QueryPort for SteamAPI warnings

#

Set the two ports in unused values, i bet your problem will be fixed if you haven't done so already

cunning ocean
little trench
#

Yeah, seems like an port issue.

cunning ocean
#

Me?

little trench
#

Yes

cunning ocean
#

i didn't post a screenshot yesterday... but i also didn't change any ports. It is set at the default 7777 and 7778 and the Steam ports are all forwarded as well...

little trench
#

Ah. Name mixed up sorry.

#

Still remains, the API warnings/errors you are seeing is a port problem. They are either being used by something else, or traffic isn't allowed in AV/Firewall

cunning ocean
#

well, i do indeed have other servers running on that machine, but usually i find that steam will just choose the next open port. so I have 27000 thru 27030 open

#

if there is a way to specify the steam query port for the isle, i would love to be able to specify it to a unique port

little trench
#

?Port & ?QueryPort on start up line

cunning ocean
#

ah ok.

#

well, i restarted the server and it seems to be up now, lol...

little trench
#

Doesn't sound like a good way to have things. Unless you start everything in the same sequance all the time, your server ports could change all the time and confused people/players. Setting ports is a much better practice.

cunning ocean
#

yeah i usually set the game ports, bu tthe steam ports seem to usually figure themselves out.

little trench
#

Glad it's working šŸ˜„

cunning ocean
#

knowing that i can set the query port tho, i may move it to my other server... which should have less other servers running, and more power.

Hey everyone, if you're hosting a server for The Isle, the new official patch is going live right now, you can update your servers now to get a head start for new players updating and playing

#

One important thing to note is that player data is now stored in json format in Saved/Databases/Players , you can easily see and edit their data using any text editor

boreal smelt
#

Update has caused my server run through PingPerfect to suffer some sort of error where it won't run.

eternal breach
#

what's the error?

boreal smelt
#

Not sure. After the update the server fails to run, and just says "error" in the control panel where the "restart" option normally is.

jolly finch
#

Also getting the same issue as Req.

#

I opened a ticket, and they suggested removing mods. I did that, and deleted the current save/progression data. And I still got the error in the status box.

boreal smelt
#

Yeah I deleted mods and save data too, to no avail.

jolly finch
#

Yeah. Ive got the PP team looking at it now. But its broken at the moment.

eternal breach
#

The rep is offline right now, but I would guess the issue is actually the fact that the binary itself changed (TheIsleServer-Test atm rather than TheIsleServer-Shipping for debugging purposes), maybe make note that they should be launching with the script TheIsleServer.sh in the servers root directory, rather than referencing the binaries directly

#

@kindred tartan

jolly finch
#

I just sent that over to the associate whose handling my ticket.

#

Thanks for the help looter, hope its able to be fixed soon.

#

Req did you do a full reinstall of the server?

#

Thats what PP recommended for me to do.

boreal smelt
#

Thanks looter, hopefully it'll get sorted out easily enough.

#

No, not yet

#

Ill let you know if it fixes it.

Sounds like they are just citing off a script rather than looking at the error itself

probably.

No external tools or rcon support yet, but you can use the scoreboard buttons or open the console with the ~ key, and use the following commands

It was uh

#

10? I think?

#

The default.

urban spindle
#

so character ragdolls are destroying after 10 seconds?

woven haven
#

Depends on the server. Longer body lingers, laggier things can be - more on smaller maps.

urban spindle
#

I'm fixing the lag they cause

sinful kindle
#

Fozor are you asking the time that the bodies stay ?

mental stag
#

Ah, yes, mine is at 0.

woven haven
#

Sweet!

urban spindle
#

yeah I found the default is 0

#

which is no good

sinful kindle
#

at the moment the onlything have work is 0

mental stag
#

But it's not actually in the .txt document so I have no idea if that's really a thing or if it's not.

weary wagon
#

0 is unlimited

steel lance
#

^^^

weary wagon
#

like no ending right?

urban spindle
#

right... 0 means forever

mental stag
#

0 is the default for the amount of food a dinosaur gives.

sinful kindle
#

anithing over that will not last more then 15 seconds

mental stag
#

At least, that's how I read it.

steel lance
#

We had issues of bodies despawning within minutes with the setting on anything but zero

weary wagon
#

-1 makes more sense so I got confused with 0 x)

mental stag
#

Yes, because it's by minutes with anything other than 0

#

Or seconds. It's on a timer if not on the default.

sinful kindle
#

thats is correct it

urban spindle
#

character corpses food value should slowly decay and destroy once they reach zero

#

but it doesn't seem thats how its working at the moment

sinful kindle
#

correct

dull ridge
#

We currently have it set to 3 hours (in seconds, of course) and it works fine

jolly finch
#

I have my servers body timers set at 0

#

Anything higher than that they despawn way to quickly

#

and 0 seemed to make them stay longer

weary wagon
#

0 is forever. And it is in seconds.

@hoary brook we a good bit of commands

awesome. ill leave it open fora while!

kk

little trench
#

'1' on DM servers. '240' when Redwoods came out on sandbox with 80+ players, lots of killing that lagged a little higher timer made it not so good. That was a server running on E3-1270

#

Less killing, 20 minutes no issues. Hit about 45-50 minutes before lag became noted without timer

runic sequoia
#

20 mins is 1200 seconds

As far commands, as long as you can kick ban with timer, PM and spectate players, anything extra is a bonus.

Any ideas on how to permanently ban someone? I have a player repeatedly slinging racial commentary. I've used the in game console commands to ban the SteamID and I've even put an IP ban on the server side of things through PingPerfect.

Good night, I'm having a problem with Rcon, it just does not connect, I've already contacted pingperfect, but all I'm told is that the game dev temporarily disabled Rcon, would you like to know if this information is coming?

RCon is no more thanks to Battleye being removed. Some console commands can be used with Jiggy and others working on expanding that.

gritty goblet
#

Is there still a way to backup the entire database from a server (for switching back and forth between sandbox and progression for example)? The files/filepaths are different now, obviously.

proud plinth
#

yeah, just make a copy of your Databases folder and store it somewhere else. when needed just copy it back. or do you mean something else?

gritty goblet
#

the entire folder? cause it used to be just a single DB file from what I hear. now there's a million separate files for each player instead.

proud plinth
#

yeah thats how it is now

gritty goblet
#

so then you'd have to create a zip of the entire folder in order to back it up, right?

proud plinth
#

you can make a zip, but you dont have to. as said, simply copy the folder to another path and copy it back if you want to use it again

gritty goblet
#

I guess I wouldn't know how to save the databases folder and its contents without zipping it. I've also never backed up the database myself before the patch that changed everything in there. so I am inexperienced anyways. I'm just trying to learn as much as I can

little trench
#

Using something like PingPerfect, provided the folders not to big, just use the Zip function, download a copy to your computer too.
Otherwise you'd have FTP Access. Using something like FileZilla, connect to the server with the detials they provided and grab the files and put them on your computer (Zip them for safe keep :D)

proud plinth
#

ah yeah, didnt think of pingperfect xD i'll stick to dedicated stuff

Hey another question anybody knows a working kick/ban tool for server owners?šŸ˜…

naive onyx

There are currently no working tools like rcon because battleeye was removed, you can use the ingame one which I think does for 24 hours, or the console or in the actual server game.ini, otherwise as far as I know there are no tools. Unless you go legacy I think you can use the battleeye rcon.

Actually they are perma bans

You can only unban people by removing them from your game.ini

Ai has been disabled until they rework it, and no, I donā€™t think you can change it in the ini files, there might be a command in the console iirc but other then that idk.

0 is default where bodies do no despawn (Unless changed recently). if you wish bodies to despawn for Deathmatch set to 1, value is set in seconds šŸ˜ƒ

Anyone know of any Isle hosting services besides PingPerfect?

pure tinsel
#

Citadel Servers

#

But they are their own set of problems.

#

You can't set up mods on their The Isle servers.

hasty holly
#

Yeah, no thanks.

#

Maybe I'll give PP another try. I heard they've gotten better.

torpid prairie
#

Need a qualified opinion. Would you recommend hosting your own server if your computer is fit to handle it, or just renting one?

little trench
#

Would recommend finding a solid provider, Been a little while sicne I've been with PP I wouldn't touch them personally, Citadel Servers took over a month to refund me after they set up Isle in the wrong country and then said they couldn't in the country I requested (Was put on the most furthest location...) Loving that account credit.
I myself use Dedicated hosting, download the game and configure it myself things PP would do for you.

merry urchin
#

Why is my Sandbox Server allways crashing on Dev Branch? Like every 2 hours.

sonic trail
#

@pure tinsel I am using CS and I run with Modded R2 and Primordial Tyrants mods

#

I'm not having any problems with Citadel Servers at the moment. Only problem I have is the lack of players, but that is just because of the Dev hype going on

pure tinsel
#

@sonic trail How long has CS had mods working?

sonic trail
#

i have been had mine for at least 2 months now, though CS doesn't use drop down boxes like PP does. It's more technical about how to do it, but you understand the server better

#

I was referred to CS from server owners who had mods already installed, so my guess is for a while now

rose epoch
#

Hey, so i was wondering if is possible to add alberto into progression server, if so how?

mental stag
#

mods.

#

Alberto in Progression doesn't have anything to do with server hosting.

sonic trail
#

you might be able to in your config editor. For example here is Allo: ProgressionOverrides=(Row="Allo",Points=180). Just replace "Allo" with the shorthand for Alberto, and make the point cost whatever you want.

sonic trail
#

on another note, My own server (not named for the obvious reasons), has been playing on progression for the last month. After I get home from picking my son up from school, it's in sandbox. I personally do not enjoy the toxicity that sandbox can bring out of people, so I checked my settings to make sure I didn't mis-click someone. My settings are still in Progression, and I have even tried Survival, yet the game always loads into Sandbox

merry urchin
#

Maybe because you're a admin, it loads sandbox for you

#

For others it might be progression

sonic trail
#

it has been using sandbox for me the whole time, and even in the server list in game it says the server is sandbox

merry urchin
#

Hm

sonic trail
#

Going through my server logs and I found this line:
"[2018.03.28-00.27.51:986][ 0]LogLoad: Game class is 'BP_GameMode_Sandbox_C'"

this is always present no matter what game mode I select.

sonic trail
#

hm, it only locks me in sandbox whenever I have Modded R2 active. If I use any other map or mod, it goes back to the game mode I choose.

merry urchin
#

Then use a different map for now

#

Until that's fixed

sonic trail
#

I am. completely removed modded R2, hope it helps if anyone else has this problem

#

Also. @rose epoch , Alberto is in progression unless a server owner removes it, along with a "Saurophaganax", whatever that is.

šŸ“Ž unknown.png
merry urchin
#

Is there a way to set pp to 0 for admins?

sonic trail
#

yes just use this command line in the game.ini file. "ProgressionOverrides=(Row="Allo",Points=0)" that example line would set the Allo's point cost to 0 points

#

but i don't know if it can be set for only admins

merry urchin
#

Hmmm

sonic trail
#

there are mods that enable admin only dinos, but those have to be granted in the actual player's files. not the game.ini

merry urchin
#

Okay

sonic trail
#

Let's take my character profile for example:
{ "CharacterClass": "Velociraptor", "Location_Isle_Region2": "X=-80401.461 Y=-2818.780 Z=-9364.290", "Rotation_Isle_Region2": "P=0.000000 Y=33.357731 R=0.000000", "Growth": "1.0", "Hunger": "43", "Thirst": "15", "Stamina": "63", "Health": "25", "BleedingRate": "0", "Oxygen": "40", "bGender": false, "bIsResting": false, "bBrokenLegs": false, "ProgressionPoints": "5", "ProgressionTier": "1", "UnlockedCharacters": "Oro;Dryo;Psittaco;Ava;Velociraptor;" }

#

All you would have to do is change the "characterclass": to whatever dino you wanted them to have. but this would only take effect after a restart

#

so if they are an admin, and the dino is locked for players, this is a way to bypass that lock placed server-wide, and allow your admins to have an "admin-only" dino

#

but from all my digging, there is no way to reduce PP cost for specific players

naive onyx
#

Actually you donā€™t need to restart to change characters now, you just have to not be on the server and then once changed save and upload back to the players folder and go into the server.

sonic trail
#

oh that's a nice thing to hear. I guess when they leave it deactivates the files in the same way a restart would? So when they come back, it activates the new edited file instead.

naive onyx
#

Pretty much, delete the old file, replace it with the new edited one, once the player joins theyā€™ll be that dino. When they leave it saves to the file, which is why you canā€™t do it before theyā€™ve left.

#

Which again, is super useful so you donā€™t have to keep restarting just to change a players dinosaur.

sonic trail
#

How do you link your discord to your server if you use Citadel Servers as a host?

eternal breach
#

The new chat commands for admins can be seen by typing /help while being an admin in the server, they are also all console commands if you prefer that

#

In 0.1.35.3 I added a new spectator mode for administrators as well, by default it is bound to the \ key above enter, let me know how it works if you're hosting a dev branch server

merry urchin
#

Er... You might get in trouble for tagging a dev...

#

Okay

#

In the next patch, aside from some bug fixes related to spectating there is a faster move mode available when you hold sprint

eternal breach
#

in 0.1.35.6 and later it should be removed while your spectating and safe

eternal breach
#

#

@untold sluice I had a similar issue, it kept telling people the connection timed out, a simple restart fixes it, idk exactly what causes it.

#

Does your server have mods by chance?

safe compass
#

Has there been any update as to what program can be used in a server to help with kick/ban etc?

eternal breach

if you're on dev branch, there are new helper commands for admins you can see with /help in chat

safe compass
#

Thank you looter

sonic trail
#

Is there a way to change what dino is needed to prog? For example I want to make it Velo > Herrera > Cerato > Allo > Acro > Giga.
Currently it is Velo > Herrera > Utah > Allo > Giga

#

I also want to know if there is a way to disable the Subadult Rex and replace it with adult rex in progression. I know there is the game.ini line DisabledDinosaurs=Allo to disable allo (and replace for any other dino), but i can't find the one for subadult Rex

eternal breach
#

@sonic trail I don't think you can alter progression paths through ini's but the subadult rex class is RexSubS for the survival version and TRexSubAdult for the sandbox version

sonic trail
#

this is in Progression mode. Was hoping to disable the sub adult and enable the adult somehow so rex players wont have to grow to adult, while giga and spino players start full grown

#

But thank you though, you have already help loads

eternal breach
#

the class names should be the same in progression i think

sonic trail
#

I just tried both and neither one disabled the subadult rex, but you gave me a base to mess around with so i'll keep trying. I'll let you know when i find it, thank you kindly

Hello I need little advice to launch a server.
When we run the server with the cmd:
//
login anonymous
force_install_dir F:\THE_ISLE\srv01
app_update 412680 validate
exit
the game starts the download but around 50% the download is crashing the entire server.
We have a connection ILO and when downloading it is as if the connection satured and there is loss of connection with the steam server.
We are looking for steam but we have no problem to open servers on other games.
Do you have an idea ? Maybe we make a mistake in the cmd? We are open to all advice šŸ˜‰

remove the spaces in the installation path. maybe its just that. had also a problem some time ago with spaces in the installation path

When using "app_update 412680 -beta development validate" you have to use the quote marks, think it is around the entire thing, could be just around the ID the branch.

The only way that I know is by setting someone as a dino that has 100 bleed and 1 health in the database where you want the body. Other then that I think there was a command or something, but I do not know that, only of the database thing which can be done without restarting which is nice.

@ClouD_ApeX#2285 Before looking at the Isle, you'll need to make sure you have a static IP from your ISP. Standard allocation could change IP every 24 hours. Then no one would be able to connect otherwise.
Make sure your internet is up to the jump. Server largely dependent on the Upload speed of your internet (Generally slower then download). For any game it is advisable to have at least 10 mbit in either traffic direction. Howeverl; Not sure what the Isle takes per player.
For the time, Isle seems to run best on high single core speed CPU. A small stored away Xeon from 10 years ago @2.4GHz is going to struggle to scale with players.

Otherwise, download steamCMD, get the Isle and start hosting a server. Need some assistance I'll try and be about to help, might be a bit slow to give help, I haven't been online much due to life.

Where can i find resources for all the options

#

I am running a dedicated server and information is hard

sonic trail
#

@near lintel i am having the EXACT same problem. I blame the current dev server hype

flat raptor
#

šŸ˜¦

flat raptor
#

how can i set food drain, water drain and progression menu timer?

flat raptor
#

also how to turn on family sharing

flat raptor
#

also need to know how to stop nighttime

mental stag
#

@near lintel Just keep it going. Have active staff that are playing on the server consistently. Also, try and find a niche that your server fits. Some people do mods, others do different types of gameplay, etc.

flat raptor
#

okay i put a buch of random combinations, only need the progression timer variable now

little trench
#

[/script/theisle.igamemode]
ProgressionOverrides=(Row="Austro",Points=10)

Change Austro is each class you wish to change for progression. Not sure what the updated list is though.

near lintel
#

@mental stag yea we are on daily and for hours, finding the niche may take time due to all the realism hate

flat raptor
#

@little trench im talking about the timer on the settings menu to open the menu, like logout timer

flat raptor
#

Lets call it progresion cooldown timer - like the ServerLogoutTime =

naive onyx
#

I havenā€™t tried it with progression so idk if itā€™s the same atm, but respawn time should be the same I would assume, as with waiting to click the growth button on survival. If that doesnā€™t work then maybe there is a seperate one idk about. Donā€™t quote me on it though, not 100% sure. @flat raptor

mental stag
#

Eh, there's a good amount of people who enjoy realism, the problem being that there are a lot of realism servers currently-- especially semi realism

flat raptor
#

ive tried ServerProgressionTime= and ServerProgressTime= neither works @naive onyx

#

I know its possible

naive onyx
#

Did you try ServerRespawnTime= ?

flat raptor
#

Respawn time i thought was whne you die lol

#

RIP

naive onyx
#

Nah, itā€™s meant to be like, for sandbox, it has a respawn timer, but I guess itā€™s linked to both grow and progress as well?

flat raptor
#

maybe ill try thanks

naive onyx
#

Good luck

flat raptor
#

sounds legit cuz its 45 sec default and the RespawnTime is 45 sec

flat raptor
#

I LOVE YOU @naive onyx

#

lol

#

stupid variable to be used

#

Is there any way to control the food / water drain?

sonic trail
#

I think thats tied to the actual dinos themselves. Not really a server setting since every dino drains at different rates

naive onyx
#

^

flat raptor
#

They should have a rate of drain. You cant change by dino but a global rate @sonic trail @naive onyx :(

merry urchin
#

How does one change the respawn settings?

flat raptor
#

ServerRespawnTime=

#

then put the seconds wanted

#

is bGender=false male?

sonic trail
#

yes

#

Gender=true is female

#

while Gender=false is male

iron forum
#

Does Gender= control the gender of nested dinos?

#

what is the file path for thenyaw islands map?
my friend is trying to change the server from regular to dev branch but cant figure it out

iron forum
#

What server provider are you using? @past estuary

past estuary
#

um VMWare VSphere client xD

#

lol....

shadow vault
#

I want to set up a death match dedicated server. Is it best to attempt to do this myself or via a provider?
Can settings of everything be adjusted with a provider?
Or anyone have any they recommend?
Or if its not worth going to a provider can someone tell me how to set up one? lol

iron forum
#

@past estuary So for me the command line is /Game/TheIsle/Maps/Thenyaw_Island/Thenyaw_Island?MaxPlayers=32?game=Sandbox

#

Now for your friend, is there a file on their computer or a vps or a website that your friend edits the server on?

merry urchin
#

It is being hosted on a machine I have

#

@flat raptor What file does that need to be put under?

iron forum
#

@shadow vault It depends because if you want to do it yourself your computer needs to be able to handle it additionally your Internet needs to be able to handle it as well. Also you need to have a static ip on your router so it doesn't change.

Now with a provider they take care of setting up the server box/ they are there to give you support. BUT not all providers will do this...so check before you pay for the server about the services they offer.

So pretty much the difference is do you want to do it on your own and not pay for anything or pay for it and potentially have support depending on the provider.

If you have anymore questions please @ me and if anyone spots any thing wrong with what I said please correct me.

#

@merry urchin Those go in the Game.ini file

merry urchin
#

Thank you!

flat raptor
#

How do you add a mod on a dedicated server?

iron forum
#

@flat raptor If the mod is not a map just add the id to the GameUserSettings.ini
EnabledMods=(mod id)

If it is a map then add the id and the command line will be needed as well.

flat raptor
#

finally found the answer šŸ˜ƒ thank you very much

Does anyone know the prediction of when dev branch updates will be passed to normal mode?

@oblique osprey Are you wanting to host a server on your computer or through a server provider?

oblique osprey
#

Through a server provider like ping perfect i have one on normal branch but dev branch is more interesting

iron forum
#

If you already have a server running on pingperfect you should see on the control panel an option to switch to the development branch. @oblique osprey

oblique osprey
#

Going to check thanks

#

I don't see it @iron forum i can swap to current branch but all ready on it i can swap^to legacy but nothing else

iron forum
#

@oblique osprey You are the owner of it correct and not a sub user?

#

Because I just checked my pingperfect control panel and I can switch it back to the current branch or legacy

oblique osprey
#

I'm the owner

iron forum
#

If you see both of them then you must be on the development branch

sinful kindle
#

Valhoran I may help you by sending you some pictures of it

oblique osprey
#

Yes please

sinful kindle
#

Ok done

#

Easy way to do it

iron forum
#

So what was the fix?

sinful kindle
#

I think they had it but not switching the beta process

Ohh okay. Thanks for telling me.

Does anyone know the command line for Thenyaw? Running this off of the steam Isle Dedicated Server tool.

sleek hawk
#

didn't you already send it

dull wraith
#

Thenyaw_Island

iron forum
#

That command line I sent was for pingperfect. it doesn't work for the steam tool

#

Thank you Hypno. I'll try just that when I get home

flat raptor
#

is Thenyaw_Island for dev only? @dull wraith

dull wraith
#

Dev branch only at the moment.

flat raptor
#

thanks

shadow fiber
#

So im trying to set up a server through the steam dedicated server tool. How do I get onto the dev branch and use the Thenyaw map? Any help would be appreciated

iron forum
#

@shadow fiber Right click the tool and click on options and click on beta tab and select development like you would if you were switching your game.

shadow fiber
#

oh ok what about using the Thenyaw map?

iron forum
#

@shadow fiber So Hypno said it was
Thenyaw_Island
I have not gotten a chance to try it

shadow fiber
#

alright thanks ill look into it after the update

lapis estuary
#

anyone know the path for DV Test Map?

digital mesa
#

Its the name of the map

#

Go to the host menu and see what it's called

#

It should be something like dv_testlevel

lapis estuary
#

I've never used the host menu, always use the server tool, but it got worked out. any reason it keeps forcing itself into survival mode?

#

also is AI working for any map right now?

digital mesa
#

I think it uses the settings you last used in the host menu, not sure though

#

Also AI was disabled

mental stag
#

Hm. Will it be possible to disable the old dinosaurs in favor of the survival ones on Sandbox? Also, is it possible to disable the adult versions of the survival dinosaurs but still have them grow on Sandbox? I'm trying to think of workarounds for the low pop hunger problems and I only see Sandbox as a solution other than leaving random dead bodies for people to find and eat, but that requires going in and changing my database file and reeee I just feel bad that my carnivore players don't have much to eat and my herbivore players are constantly being decimated. ;.;

buoyant kestrel
#

as far as i know you can enable/disable any dinosaur from the roster for your server

#

half of all "realism" servers have sauropods disabled at least

You should really check out our new server its progression and low pps! We would definetly like more people to join its 100 slots so feel free to join our discord for more info!šŸ˜ƒ https://discord.gg/RgXbYmr

uhhh hey can anyone help me

#

i finally got my server up and running after much ado and piecing together like 5 separate guides because of all the outdated information out there
but it only displays under LAN and none of my friends can see it even if they're connected to me via hamachi

#

Defaults ports for the game/steam are 27015, 7777, 7778. Make sure they are opened in your firewall/AV & router so anyone can see and connect to the server.

merry forum
#

is there a way to make sure those opened ports only allow traffic from the isle? 'cause i've had issues in the past with opening ports for games where i ended up with some random jerk in my network and had to reconfigure everything to banish them

little trench
#

Perhaps Application exception on your PC AV/Firewall

#

I don't use home computers to host servers, I've had very little to do with what you need. Someone else might bounce along and assist.

merry forum
#

fair enough

#

i'm thinking i might just have to bite the bullet and rent a hosted server, i just wanted to try to see if my computer would do it first

little trench
#

Far easier and safer. Just more dosh :3

shy ether
#

Right. This isn't a server ad dump channel. And I know you just advertised not too long ago.

#

Keep it to information about hosting servers and helping others with server hosting.

#

If you want to advertise a server, I'd recommend the Steam forums.

Anyone know why servers show for some people on dev branch, and not for others?

Having trouble figuring out how to change progression to sandbox on pingperfect

I Don't use PP, however you should have a "Command Line Manager" or something similar. There will either be dropdown box or a text field to type in to change it.

sleek hawk
#

@x3Cutez#0052 update your server frequently

weary blade
#

Don't use or YOU don't use PP? @little trench

Strains are unreleased content, and therefore they are unable to be accessed by normal players.

So you can't.

guys I just got my server the other day it is dev branch.
Which option do I use in ping perfect to update it?

for the new v3 map is it the same command line as old v3?

@merry urchin Click on beta/legacy update 怋Select Development on the drop-down menu 怋Click 'Execute'

Is it possible to host a server on the dev branch with the v3 map?

#

yes

How can i change weather in console?

#

@kind citrus You shouldn't attempt it if you're not running a dedicated server, there's serious issues if you try hosting V3 locally.

We have a dedicated box and we are trying to set up a The Isle server. Experienced with other games such as Ark, Dark and Light, Conan Exiles, PixArk, Rust, but this is the first time we are setting up a The Isles server.

#

I'm having a hard time finding a good guide to set it up.

#

But I've gotten a .bat setup for updating and one for starting the server.

#

Found the game.ini server settings.
