Pretty sure my update file is okay. But the .bat start not so much. I was getting some error messages though I have the server running now.
start "" /NORMAL "D:\TheIsle\PrivateIsle\TheIsleServer.exe" "listen?game=sandbox?MaxPlayers=150?Port=31100?QueryPort=31200?RCONEnabled=true?RCONPort=31300?" -log
I'm only get maxplayers of 50
And when I put map code in the game crashed.
Okay, there is no rcon you can remove those two
k
What error's are you getting?
I was also asked to build a Region 3 map. By default this map started on region 2 without map info.
Don't need listen. MaxPlayers should be fine, though some odd reason doesn't alwayts seem to take effect unless you have the map stated in the start line
V3 broken or buggy at the moment I do believe.
I'm not sure how married they are to the map. I was reading above that you can run it on the dev branch but I'm not sure how to set that up.
/Game/Region2/Isle_Region2?game=sandbox?MaxPlayers=150?Port=31100?QueryPort=31200 -log
Booting map like that should fix the players at least.
Thank you. I will try that to see if I can get it running better. Step one.
I really appreciate your help. I feel like I've been knocking my head against a wall for hours now.

I'm assuming if the map is a modded map I would also need the mod number. Do mod numbers need to be in the command line or just the gameusersettings.ini?
gameusersettings.ini
[TheIsle.Mods]
EnabledMods=<Some ID>
Add the mod id. Boot the server on one of the default maps so it will download (Have to do it manually on Linux)
Then change the map
That absolutely did change the player count.

Puppy is demanding to go out. BRB
want to be on Dev branch. You need to att the -beta development to the app_update in steam CMD
app_update 412680 -beta development
Yeah for v3 π
You've been super helpful. Thank you so much! I wish I had found this earlier today! π
Yeah, most owner are fairly nice, some more helpful then others π
Guys can you help me on local host server ,how can i use any command? Cause i typing everything in console but its not doing anything.
So Then this /Game/TheIsle/Maps/Landscape3/Isle_V3 would work on gamecitadel? Iv had a but a run in with the maps an not sure to all of the code names. I only of one and that stock set up. At this time my server is running a xtra low pp server on theynaw so getting to allo an so wont take much effort. Im also looking for a person who looking to help run a server. Pm me for information. The person need to know about server based stuff and ect.
hi, the v3 is in the dev branch?
@HolographicWings#4639 yes it is
/Game/TheIsle/Maps/Landscape3/Isle_V3 is not working for Gamecitadel does anyone happen to know why it wont change?
Is it possible to add mods to a server if it is on the dev branch?
No, no mods that I am aware of
Set up a development server with /Game/TheIsle/Maps/Landscape3/Isle_V3 and people aren't loading in properly. They can see the server, but it takes forever to load and they finally time out. It is the first Isle server I've set up so there might be something wrong.
Update .bat
@lethal rampart off
start "" steamcmd.exe +login anonymous +force_install_dir "D:\TheIsle\PrivateIsle" +app_update 412680-beta development validate +quit
Start .bat
start "" /NORMAL "D:\TheIsle\PrivateIsle\TheIsleServer.exe" " /Game/TheIsle/Maps/Landscape3/Isle_V3?game=sandbox?MaxPlayers=150?Port=31100?QueryPort=31200" -log
As said before, v3 is broken or buggy. Not sure if fixes were done or about to be done in dev branch.
Oh! I thought it was working on the dev branch.
I misunderstood.
How has Thenyaw been working out? Beta development only? Is it stable though?
Is there some place that shows all the map paths?
I actually got the server to work by not using the bat file to start but adding the launch parameters to the shortcut.
This thread for adding admins seems to be wrong: https://steamcommunity.com/app/376210/discussions/16/135510194252157047/
No "+" sign in front of "serveradmins=" ?
When you add one it should be ServerAdmin=your id
@kind citrus No, I think they still count as mods.
@loud flame I found that out the hard way.
Thenwya is pretty stable in my opinion I just hate how hilly it is
I use it for my realism server
@drowsy valve the long loading screen is just a bug.
As of now it is looking pretty good. I wish there was some sort of RCON, but it is what it is. Haven't been able to test the MOTD but it sounds like that goes in a text file in the saved folder vs in the game ini files.
That is odd though because there is a MOTD line in a lot of the instructions for server setup.
motd game.ini is the old way, need to make MOTD.txt in the Saved folder.
Isle used to use Battleeye, had some sort of rcon but it was causing to many issues and removed, in-game admin is being worked on,sure there is more to come to make things easier later π
I dont see how that link is wrong, it clearly says that it's an example. They put the + so people who simply copy and paste it won't have random admins in game.
Most part I believe this is up to date now. http://playground-au.tk/howto-the-isle-dedicated-server/
Other then that, just working on editing a script to make server banners for site and such.
does anyone know if the π« button boots people for a minimum time or just till restarted server?
seems restart doesnt always let them back in
24 Hours or permanent Can't really remember what's been said. Might find banned ID's in Game.ini or saved data somewhere?
ok ty
It is 24 hours
Where is the first place game updates are announced? Is there a consistent update schedule?
hello all, is there any way that i can get into the files and make people the new adult rex? ive been trying but it sets me as the old rex
@hearty gate Are you making them RexAdult or RexAdultS
well my friends make it RexAdult
Try RexAdultS
okay thank you
What is the command line to use the Thenyaw map?
I know region 2 is "/Game/Region2/Isle_Region2" But i doubt Thenyaw_Island will work for Citadel Servers or PingPerfect
@sonic trail /Game/TheIsle/Maps/Thenyaw_Island/Thenyaw_Island
ty kindly boss
What is the command line to teleport a player to your location?
I swear it's there, but I can never find it
type /help in game
Thank youuuuuuuu!!!
Could you pass me the weather setup on the Pingperfect Console? to be able to set Day, Night, Rain and etc?
Another question. What is the character lines for the parasaur, new utah giga and rex adults. Like shantu is "shant" to set prog points
"ParaS"
Is that the adult stage?
Yeah.
Ty kindly, i'll try it
Ok so the para actually isn't in progression or else it would show up in the list without my editing
Joining server as server admin when server full isn't working
@sleek hawk bug tracker
ok
is there any ports i need to open to use the "host" key ingame to make it public?
7777, 7778, 27015
Are there other server admin command aside from the ones currently listed under / help?
If so could anyone kindly give me a list please?
spectatormode that I know of. Some others that are locked out for dev use
If you mean the free cam thing, I did see that yeah. I thought there may have been a weather / time set command too. All good though, I was curious what commands we have access to as admin.
Might be more, may of missed them or not seen them π
Hmmπ€ ok thanks for the help
Oh wrong channel sry
how do you use the admin spectator mode?
\ above the enter key, if thatβs not working delete your saved folder
Hello, I would like to give ban or kicks to players as soon as I see them because I'm taking a lot of help in this area
Good night, could you tell me how to banish and kick server players now that we're out of Rcon? I saw that in this last att of The Isle they have arranged a way to control this, you know the commands? or how to do?
Type /help in the chat and it should have a list of commands
thanks so very much
Are we no longer able to give players dinosaurs by editing the files?
i still do
Are you running Survival, or?
@grizzled nest What the problem?
Does anyone know a good place to advertise for a realism server?
Try the Isle's Steam forum.
Thank you @shy ether
Hi! I was wondering, if you're a server own is there away to turn on the old method of grouping with people...as in...an ava can group with a diablo. I'm not enjoying the group update in the least
I donβt think there is right now
Dang. Thank you!
Does anyone know the command line for v3
@sonic trail /Game/TheIsle/Maps/Landscape3/Isle_V3 should be it
Thank you kindly
Good time a developer!
Standard starting the server uses the map /Game/TheIsle/Maps/Developer/DV_TestLevel.DV_TestLevel
Question :
How can I force my server to use the map Thenyaw_Island ?
I was looking for a guide to launch a non-standard map for dedicated servers, but I found nothing.
https://steamcommunity.com/app/376210/discussions/16/1621724915777338010/
His URL contains stale information
I looked at the game client logs, there I learned the location of the map Thenyaw_Island..
but starting the server gives only errors and refers to the absence of the map...Probably the directory of folders and files TheIsle-WindowsNoEditor.pak and TheIsle-Windows server.pak different ,and therefore my suspicions were unfounded :(
More I have no idea how to force the server to run the map Thenyaw_Island
I am asking you to help me please.
maybe because the link you posted is 6 months old and we have updated a shit ton since then...
how do you give a reason when kicking every time i try I only send the first word.
@sonic trail
if the structure of the server and its startup parameters and configurations have changed a lot, maybe it's time to update the guide and the link I provided?
Whatever it is...My problem is not solved...

@little trench not working ,still load map /Game/TheIsle/Maps/Developer/DV_TestLevel.DV_TestLevel
Well since i am not the one who wrote it, tagging me and complaining means nothing except your own wasted time.
Hi! Does game support server-side replays on dedicated server?
@reef plume send me a private message woth screenshots of what you ate doing and how you ate starting the server with the Pramaters
Hello everyone, can anyone help me? I have a server in pingperfect but for some reason I am without the control of admin I can not use the commands to kick and baning players and the game is not recognizing me with the golden nick is like the others
@stable citrus I am not too familiar with pingperfect servers but I am pretty sure there has to be an option where you need to put in your Steam64ID to be recognized as admin on the server, have you already done that?
I'm not going to try, thank you so much @inland plinth
Sure, if you need further help just dm me with a screen of your settings if it doesnt work and I'll try to help (:
I haven't hosted in quite a while and my search fu is weak it seems. Can anyone point me in the direction of how to get the discord link to show up with my server (if that's still an option)
does anyone have the discord link to Risen Realism?
@verbal wraith You mean that your Server is gonna have that smexy discord invite button in the serverlist ? Like how to add the link and where?
yeah, is that still a thing?
For our server it works as far as I know, at least it is still there
https://steamcommunity.com/app/376210/discussions/12/135511455867623483/
ServerDiscord=
And behind it the last 7 number of the invite.
E.g.
ServerDiscord=AhEsanF
Thnx! i swear i looked at that discussion page a couple times last night.
Hi everyone, I've put the Type / help to show the list of commands just wanted to know if I messed up the command
if you're an admin just open the chat window and type /help to see the list of available commands
@verbal wraith
yes I am admin but when I typed the list does not appear
make sure your not putting a space after the / it should just be /help and make sure your name is gold. feel free to upload a screenshot if needed.

Hey I just have a couple of questions about hosting a server from the game.
-
When I host from the game is it then only single player or can other people join? Because my friend couldn't find me when I did it.
-
Does the AI setting work on it and if so how many dinosaurs does it spawn? I couldn't find any when I was on Survival Mode.
-
What do the settings Database and Eperimental mean/do?
@acoustic hamlet
1 As of right now I believe hosting a game is single player only, anyone who knows otherwise I'd love for them to correct me
2 AI is currently broken and doesn't work
3 Database means that it will save your dinosaur and Experimental as of right now does nothing
Thanks for answering my questions, I did notice that it had a private setting, so I'm assuming it may turn into multiplayer at some point? But either way won't be using it until the AI is working anyway.
the private setting basically means that anybody with the password that can see it, can join it. But as stated above, hosted servers are currently singleplayer. It might work with LAN but it has so far been untested
How do I disable dinosaurs from my server, do I need to write out their entire name in my ping perfect?
Just use their "code names" in the ping perfect bit yeah
For example:
[/script/theisle.igamemode]
DisabledDinosaurs=Velo
just do "DisabledDinosaurs=(dino code name like velo or shant)"
MAKE SURE that you have the [/script/theisle.igamemode] line above it first
._. I have a question i wanna ask but idk who to ask
What do you need to know?
creating a server, I been trying for a few days with party fowls post but uh, its old..
I mean I half way got it but i broke the isle.exe when i tried to follow the post
I'm just noticing who you are,you were named in the post also
Send me some PM's show me what you've done so far, and will try help you out from there.
oki doki
hi i have a question about what the spectator key is @everyone
Open console, and type "SpectatorMode"
anyone here?
awww, there's no more redwoods in V3? π’
Hey I have a quick question... dunno if it fits in here but I was wondering if anyone has a link to get onto the One in a Box server discord? The link on the announcements in game has expired.
Whatβs rude?
Some guy said bad words about the server you asked. I guess his comment got deleted or that person banned
Ahh okay
Is anyone able to give me a little run down to host a public server? Just give me an @ on this chat please and thank you!
Eyy dw
What's the command line for DV Test level?
The map
Please tag me when you answer β€
@merry urchin Unless it changed for some reason, it is;
DV_TestLevel
/Game/TheIsle/Maps/Developer/DV_TestLevel
When more people are added to the server, I want to play on this great map, but is there always a full server? 128/128
Thanks grinny
What are some good server hosts that anyone might recommend? Me and a few friends wanted to start a server ourselves and we went with CitadelServers to begin with, but they are no help at all and won't answer any of our questions. We're thinking about going with PingPerfect but I wanted to know if anyone had any advice or other options. Thanks in advance ^3^
@tropic beacon a lot of servers use PingPerfect. In my experience of using them with my friend when I was an owner, they are decent, but like a lot of things they can be difficult at times. I do recommend them though.
Does anyone know the commands to teleport using the spectator cam?
Hold shift and press \
Ty
np
Trying to update my server to dev, but keep getting "Error! App '412680' state is 0x4A6 after update job."
Anyone know how to fix this?
Is there now a command to unban someone in-game?
/unban steamid
ty
Will the button for seeing player names ever return for spectator mode for admin use? Seems to be disabled this go around
Correction, keybind changed
Is there a way t po switch a hosted server to dev branch?
hey dudes, how I host a server?
ty
Hey does anyone know if you can set AI on thenyaw?
@half cradle not yet
Hey looter, would you happen to know how to switch a server so that it uses the dev branch instead of the current branch?
I've tried using the Beta / Legacy function on PingPerfect but it doesn't work. I even deleted the Database folder.
@little trench
Tagged you Grin, because you seem fairly knowledgable.
I've got a question so my gf runs a server... I can see it but she can't do you know what's wrong or needs to be fixed
Try having her exit the game and then rejoin again. Also have her check to make sure she's got the same version of the game the server is on.
@bronze coral Not sure about PingPerfect specifically
Any other hosts you know how to do the change on?
normally, you just specify the -beta development line in the update process
which tells steam pipe to grab the development branch
Is there any way to manually do that on PP?
I'm sure PP does it somewhere in the background
Hm. Is there anything I can run in the Commandline Manager?
This is what it looks like, and it never works. I suppose it's a ticket to support.
It didn't help
Got it working Looter. Thanks you for your time. π
Are we allowed to advertise a new server in here? Just asking before I post anything π
Does anyone know the commandline for v3 map ??
@merry urchin I suggest citadel servers, other then that I havent found very many server hosts that are of good quality that are affordable
Okay was with the@ before just not a lot info
From them
Like how to put the server in dev branch
Sure dont suggest citadel servers. And v3 is /Game/TheIsle/Maps/Landscape3/Isle_V3
Thanks
I can verify it's a support ticket to pingperfect if you use their service and want to switch to dev branch.
are you able to teleport to a certain location when using spectator mode?
yes, leftshift \
doesnt work for me
only works on flat-ish ground
Are there any new Server settings for AI etc?
Like is the max of AIs still 200 And 1:10?
Tag me for reply please, thanks
@languid tusk not yet, but when AI comes in there will be
Thanks looter
as of 0.1.39.2, server admins have two new commands, /time and /weather, if you type just the command you'll get a list of possible values to use, and be careful with setting the weather to storm or higher as it won't leave until you reset currently, let me know if you have any issues
Apologies but can someone tell me where I can find / how to set a server time to a specific time of day on regular branch? Or if there is a guide? I did a little poking but was unsuccessful. I may just be blind, I dunno. Tried those ^^^^ didnt work..
@placid stratus As far as i'm aware. Admin commands are only on dev branch currently. As devs are experimenting on how well they work and if there are any problems. Once devs are satisfied, they release it to regular branch. That is probably why it currently doesn't work on regular branch.
I realize that, but where is the option to change the server times within the database?
For stable, this is all there is for the gameI believe, in the Game.ini
[/script/theisle.igamemode]
ServerStartingTime=1350
bServerDynamicTimeOfDay=0
ServerDayLength=60
Does anyone know how to switch a server through PingPerfect to Dev branch? It's a new server and we finally got it to show up on legacy, but we're wanting to use it on dev branch. We opened a ticket with support but nothing they've had us try has worked yet
There should be a button that looks like this, click on it, in the dropdown menue there will be an option for development, select it and restart your server https://gyazo.com/1df006b74444f72bbbbdcdf861e0850c
That helped π Thanks! I think they were telling us to use a different button than that one and that was supposed to change it
@little trench (apologies for the tag, idk if you mind.) In that section, if I wanted to freeze the time, would I set the desired time in ServerDynamicTimeOfDay and then leave DayLength be? So if I wanted it to remain Night Time, enter in 0100 (I assume) as Dynamic for 1 Am?
It may work that way. What i sent is the default. Also depends if the map uses those settings.
Trail and error my friend
Does anyone know how to enable AI from the command line using steam dedi? I know its not ready yet just wanted to know for reference...
Hey looter, I've set the AI to a cap of 200 and a spawn rate of 5 and we've not seen any Orodomeus in a few hours.
Are there suggested settings you would use for that?
Those settings probably don't work anymore, there's a hard cap of 2 AI dinos at any time currently. If you want to see them, stay on flat terrain without lots of rocks, or go on DV-TestLevel.
How do you switch to the new map on ping perfecrt
I'd say the custom command line until they add it in to the default one. I don't know the commandline for it though. It's likely similar to the others.
from what I understand, you can just put AE-012 as the map and off it goes?
Usually yes, but until they make it into the actual command line you will have to use the custom commandline
Sorry, I mean last I looked (although not personally tested) Isle takes short paths. so where AE-012 might be /game/maps/AE-012/AE-012 or somethign, can just use AE-012 ??
Guys, i tried to host a server with a map mod but i cant, anybody know why? I already restarted the steam, and all the map mod status is ready. When i use thenyaw island i can host a server but with a modded map i cant. Can anybody help?
Mods are kinda bugged atm
Oh, i can only play thenyaw island, island v3 and i thought there's a lot of map in this game , ty for the info Stolid
So how u can bring up the new map on a Server?
Anyone who knows it?
I tried severel things, but i wont work.
Is there a way through pingperfect to disable dinosaurs in survival like you would in sandbox?
Hello! Can someone tell me how to change my dedicated server to dev branch?
want to be on Dev branch. You need to add the -beta development to the app_update in steam CMD
app_update 412680 -beta development
XD
Just wana make sure this is commandline for dev test map
DV_TestLevel
/Game/TheIsle/Maps/Developer/DV_TestLevel
Or is it just
/Game/TheIsle/Maps/Developer/DV_TestLevel
Does annyone know the commandline for thenyaw?
@rough loom
All Maps (atm):
/Game/TheIsle/Maps/Thenyaw_Island/Thenyaw_Island?
/Game/TheIsle/Maps/Landscape3/Isle_V3?
/Game/TheIsle/Maps/Developer/DV_TestLevel?
oh thankyouu^^
Can someone tell me how to ban a player that is not online?
In game do /help. There is a command to ban a player by their id
I would type it but i dont know the exact command
is there a reason why staff can no longer override the player limit of a server they're admin on
was that announced at some point
that the feature had stopped working or
that should be working on the latest dev-branch, the feature had an issue on the current live version of the game that I fixed
Hello, can someone help me with the AI ββconfiguration of my dedicated server?
bServerAI=true
ServerAIMax=150
ServerAIRate=5
bServerAIPlayerSpawns=true
?
Is there a way for admins on a server to see player name tags while having them off? I've seen some people talk about it but I've also heard that it doesn't work
If you press delete anyone who is in range their name will show until pressed again.
Thank you π
Hello guys, what is the best way to distribute food on the map? Could someone explain to me how you do?
I would also like to know with what command I remove the rain
As a admin type in the chat box /weather and it will tell you all the options for weather events.
Not sure I follow... Do you mean like how to feed dinos within your server? AI? Herb Food?
distributing bodies for carnivores is a new server and I want people to grow
@jolly finch
My suggestion would be to suicide as a shant or maybe cama in a few popular locations.
Cama bodies may lag your server tho.
Sorry not much help. :/
that's a good idea the bad thing is to go where you want to die and that there is no command to commit suicide
well hopefully the first few players wont be complete fools and try to play as carnivores KNOWING there won't be food....
Yo does anyone know if you can set multiple dinos that only admins can choose?
like if i wanted admins to have full grown dinos in a survival server while also having the option to choose is that doable?
I know you can set one at a time but im curious
Stupid question is there a reason why server keeps crash when it on dev test map? Line is it the bodies or the portal ?? I have a server runs on high with like a lot of ram so it isnβt server side but Iβm just wondering if it corpses or portal
If big things go through the portal it can crash the server @merry urchin best to just keep things out of the portal all together
@lapis gazelle okay ty but I have seen any big dinos goes through by will keep an eye out
Np
Does /grow not work for admins anymore?
Not at the moment.
@twilit sedge if u like to ban a player, u can add the ID in the game.ini and set it to "ban".
BannedUsers=(UserName="[User-Name]",UniqueID="[User-ID]")
[ ] < insert Name/ID
@merry urchin If the server havent enough power, it could crash in cause of the corpses. I dont think its because of the portal. (non high power consumption)
(if sth unclear tag me pls)
what happened to anthomnias nycta server on dev branch?
Does anyone have an idea on how to make a pingperfect server go into dev branch?
Thanks
Can somebody please help me with Global chat and AI spawning?
I am also having issues with the StoneClaw map working
Will we ever be able to acquire the dino id's for the hypos or is that against the rules?
Itβs not something an Admin can actually do
Im able to do it on my own server @dense socket
You have to type it like so
/weather <insert condition here>
So it will look like this
/weather Sunny
I have tried that, it doesn't work
Are you on a single player? Or are you an admin for an actual server?
When I typed in /weather severe
it came up with that Dev comment
Admin of a PingPerfect Server Im about to cancle
Mine works with all the weather commands, so Im not sure.
Works for me
@dense socket sounds like you are not on dev branch if only /goto and /bring works for you
How do I go to a dab branch?
On ping perfect or for your own game?
Iβm canceling PingPerfect so it would be for the server my friend just set up
So just for your game?
Right click The Isle in your Steam Library > Click Properties > Click the Betas Tab > Click the drop down box > Select Development Branch
Your game will then update.
Ive got no clue.
Thats something someone with a Linux will have to answer. Or a dev.
Thank you
Sorry couldnt be more help. Good luck.
You helped quite a bit. Thank you
@dense socket u want to make wat thru linux
?
for linux its
Login anonymous
Force_Install_Dir C:\anfa\wqeqdq\qweqwe\qweq
app_update 412680 -beta development
Thank you
anything elsew?
hello, i can not find any server to play
Wrong chat, try #π§-legacy-troubleshooting-π§
Is there a command for the AI to spawn something other then just oros?
isnt oro the only AI available iirc?
probably is cortez but you'd have to spend time looking for them
and dont think the actually work
Only oros currently.
Ok, thank you.
Is there a problem with oro spawning? Weβve currently got it set to 50 and I only see one oro on the whole map. Just makes it virtually impossible for people to play carnivores
There is a lot more oros I can see but theyβre all stuck underneath the map
Sorry I donβt have any screenshots of it. I restarted the server and after a while they started respawning normally
More than one this time ^^
is there a command for an admin to spawn in as a specific dinosaur?
i see some people doing it on their servers and im wondering how they do it?
Hey guys, I am after the sucho information to be able to spawn one in on the server? Is this something we are allowed to be doing? and if anyone has the stats would be awesome.
@normal holly you can modify the database to modify what dinosaur you are
even in survival you can set yourself as another dinosaur
there is no command to set yourself as a dinosaur in game
what command to use for heal ?
/heal
Type /weather for a list of them.
Hi, what part of the game.ini to put the input message and what line to put?
for some reason I am not able to see a server on my LAN but others coming in for WAN can.
can we still make our server works with steam group as whitelist in dev branch? o-o i tried but even stranger can log on
I don't think that or password is working right now
well, i put a password on it and it's not working... i'm on pingperfect, maybe should i take off my steam groupID64 before?
@jagged herald don't think the password itself function is working on the game
and have we some admin command on our serv? i didn't found any list of it...
hello the administrators we have the command of the hypo?
nop
I run a server using ping perfect, and I need to know, what to set the AI Max and AI Rate to, because there is a lot of AI Oro's spawning. Can anyone give me advice?
i try to disable some dinosaurs on my ping perfect serv, it doesn't work, it's still possible?
i'm on dev branch btw
How does a private server become a βDevβ server and be able to use a [Dev] tag? Can anyone put that tag in their server name or do we have to meet a certain criteria? Sorry if thatβs been covered already.
whats the command for setting the server daytimes?
@normal holly /time and /weather will show you the commands (ie: /time morning)
thank youuu
Important news for server administrators regarding linux dedicated servers has been announced, you can read it here https://steamcommunity.com/games/TheIsle/announcements/detail/1702806817968306649
Is there a list of all current in-game species names for the "CharacterClass", like AlloAdultS etc?
New server launched on dev branch, all info here: https://ryleerenee1024.wixsite.com/mortikisisle
@dawn pebble There is a list in here of both old and new dino codes https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1231855950
@naive onyx Thanks!
π
hello guys ... i accidently deleted all the stuff that was deletable in the dedicated server. no i dont get the stuff back with reinstalling. Can you help me there?
that includes the document where i can write down who is admin an wich stuff it should have like mode and test
Have you tried downloading the game to another destination? Create a new folder on your desktop then download it from the client there. Then you can copy and transfer the new files over. @fleet egret
no i didnt. Ima try this. Thanks
np!
Welp, no love for Linux.
Just wanted to report that our server is getting underground Ai Oro spawns too. Iβve seen at least 6-7 of them like a 1/4 mile under the surface. Also when herbivore players join, they seem to only be spawning around them and not the carnis. Hard to tell if that was intentional but seems kind of backwards.
Also, I hate to repeat my last question but itβs kind of important..
How does a private server become a βDevβ server and be able to use a [Dev] tag? Can anyone put that tag in their server name or do we have to meet a certain criteria? Sorry if thatβs been covered already. Didnβt see it answered anywhere
@tame heron which map?
Thenyaw on Dev branch
do you have any pictures of this occurring?
It appeared that they might have been corpses as I couldnβt see any movement. But they donβt move much anyway so it hard to tell.
if they were appearing under the map i would've thought they'd just fall into oblivion
Iβm at work but can post screens when I get home for sure
i'm just wondering how you're seeing them. spectator mode or something?
I can confirm that they can spawn under the map
The debug thing when admins can see player tags, will show the oro tags too. When you go to some of the oro tags, itβs obvious they are way way underground by moving the camera back and forth
i wonder if the ocean is treated as a solid object, they could be popping in on that π€
I noticed it only at Swamp and βSunny side upβ pond
Around the two water sources. Not directly in/under the water
And they donβt move. So Iβm assuming they might be corpses (it still shows the oro tag when they die)
How can I put the message of the day on my server?
Make a text file in the Saved folder called MOTD >> Saved/MOTD.txt
Is it possible to to make the radius in which name tags appear smaller? If so does anyone know how?
Nope
No as in, no it cant be changed or dont know how?
Canβt be changed as far as I am aware
Hmm, ok. Thanks!
Np
Can admins summon AI oros to them, similar to using the /bring [playername] command?
Just tested it, that's a no.
Makes sense since they are not players.
@dawn pebble ^
π
I know there was a /summon command at some point so I'm not sure if that was what could work
summon was in the console, not as an admin command
excuse me i just bought a new server but i dont know how to change the map from isvle v3 to thenyaw island i found something where i have to put the commandline into but i dont know that commandline for the thenyaw island
/Game/TheIsle/Maps/Thenyaw_Island/Thenyaw_Island
@merry urchin If u dont write any map, he will automatic ask you if you want to take the default map.
For dev app_update 412680 -beta development (in steam cmd).
I hope i can help you, if theres any question tag me or PM
is there a specific command i have to insert into my game.ini to make myself an admin on local hosting? i wanted to explore in spectator on thenyaw but a lot of the documentation for server admins revolve around dedis
@narrow veldt [/script/theisle.igamesession]
ServerAdmins=YOURSTEAMUIDHERE
is there an 4 hours restart batch file for a dedicated server
Hello, does anyone know how I can create two servers on the same machine?
how do you host a server and get people to join
@jade nexus Specify a different install path in steamcmd for each server, then forward different ports for each server and specify them in the command-line
Thank you already solved are the ports thanks @eternal breach
@crimson radish only way to get people to join is bringing in people you have been playing with. As far as I know there is not a βPlayers Wantedβ channel
@dense socket thank you
My questions are:
Why do the Mods not work and is there a way to roll back the growth timers to get he way they were?
They'll be adjusted soon enough.
So can we not go into files and change dinos anymore?
You can. But in survival mode only survival dinos will work atm, if you are on dev branch
how do you get the discord link to work with the game.ini
ive noticed that you need a code different from the link, i dont know where to get it
You just use the invite code, instead of the discord.gg part just put the bit after that in there
ok thanks so much
hey is there a way to add new dinos to progression?
Like survival dinos to progression gamemode
@merry urchin i believe u need dev kit
awe ok thanks
i'm not 100% sure
Yeah, wouldn't be another way.
are the commands for ai still
bServerAI=true
ServerAIMax=100
ServerAIRate=1.0
bServerAIPlayerSpawns=true
?
I believe so
hmm, is there a place where they tend to spawn at? ive been trying different variations of those commands and im not finding anything on my server
Iβve heard they spawn around players
I mean like, those arenβt commands you are typing ingame right?
no, they are in the .ini file
v3
Hmm
should be oros and tacos right?
Yeah, apparently they are rare on v3 judging by the search bar
Hello, I just recently installed the isle dedicated server, i have everything set up, only problem im having is that i dont have any map files...
i downloaded the dedicated server through steamcmd
I should have a folder in the directory with the title maps right?

I got it working there seems to be a problem with this path /Game/Region2/Isle_Region2
and this Game/Region2/Isle_Region2_Redwoods
Region 2 and region 2 redwoods are no longer a thing, thatβs why you are having issues
Ok cool thank you for that, ill remove them both from my map list thank you
im new to the isle
so i didnt know this π
What about this one? /Game/TheIsle/Maps/Landscape4/Landscape_04
I donβt think that one is one either
cool, and its gone
so these are ok ```/Game/TheIsle/Maps/Thenyaw_Island/Thenyaw_Island
/Game/TheIsle/Maps/Landscape3/Isle_V3
/Game/TheIsle/Maps/Developer/DV_TestLevel
is there any other official maps i do not know about?
Nope, just those 3 exist as of right now as far as I am aware
Thank you very much, great help π
π
@rare hornet For what it's worth all of those maps were official at one point in time. They were just removed as they're no longer developing them anymore.
Ok good to know, thanks for the info
I'm not seeing any ai on our server also and we're on Thenyaw, but theres nothing
and we have the multiply at 4x the normal, so there should be some at least
i believe those settings don't do anything anymore
They don't for now.
You can check for AI by entering spectator with backslash then hitting your "Delete" key. They will show with green names instead of white.
Hi, I'm having problems updating the server from dev to legacy can someone help me?
app_update 412680
this is the update, is not it?
iirc legacy branch is way out of date that it does not work anymore.
@jade nexus u need to do app_update 412680 -beta development to update for dev branch.
@west wren @naive onyxπ
any one elses server gone down with pingperfect?
haha ok
Are there any EU RP servers???
A better place to ask/look is https://steamcommunity.com/app/376210/discussions/13/ @merry urchin since this is not the place for this.
Thanks my dude @naive onyx
[2018.07.17-07.33.22:815][702]LogCore: Error: Hang detected on GameThread (thread hasn't sent a heartbeat for 25.00 seconds):

@fresh ice what's your launch properties targeting path?
I use pingperfect as host, thatβs all I know @west wren
@fresh ice If you want to dm me i can help you?
is there any solution to enable global chat ONLY for admins?
Nope.
anyone hosting some good servers or any suggestions im new to the game and discord
If you are looking for a server to play on I'd recommend looking around here: https://steamcommunity.com/app/376210/discussions/13/
is anyone else having trouble hosting their dedicated server since the latest update?
Add these settings to the servers Engine.ini for now to fix the client timeout issues
[NetDriver]
InitialConnectTimeout=600.0
[/Script/OnlineSubsystemUtils.IpNetDriver]
ConnectionTimeout=600.0
InitialConnectTimeout=600.0
I have a question about admin commands. I am setting up my own server and am trying to figure out how the admins on Pangaea use things like teleport or to become dino's not given access to by survival. I asked them and they told me to come ask here.
Teleport commands are simple, /bring or /goto steam name. The dinos thing is done in the database.
Other commands can be found by doing /help
thanks. I tried the /help thing but nothing happened o:
Are you admin on the server?
I am yes. I am both the owner and set as an admin
And you did /help in the chat ingame?
@final umbra u can go into spectate with hitting \ then if you go to around the same space from ground you where when u went into spectate and press shift+\ u will come out of spectate over their?
make sense?
We have a problem with AI not spawning in on Thenyaw, are they disabled? Server says they are on but we cant see them spawning in (dev branch)
Aaahh sorry for not responding I didn't see the responses till a few moments ago. And thanks I am headed home to try those now. I was trying to use the help in the console. Thanks for the responses!
And yes that does make sense Tzuyu. C:
Are there any plans to allow Server Owners to customize length of the day/night cycle again?
I know this is mainly for dedicated servers, but does anyone know how to load in Isle_V3 when you locally host? The only options are the test level and Thenyaw
@boreal smelt Eventually everything will be customizable. Time of day, number of AI, which factions, etc.
@wide forge You need to download and install Dedicated Server to host V3.
Thats good, it had previously been adjustable, I just wasn't sure if it had been taken away for good or just during the updates and changes to how it all worked
Anyone else having an issue starting their server in the recent patch? I updated to the latest dev build and for some reason it just says "Error" near status for both servers. I've checked for crash logs but there does not seem to be one from today.
the official ones didn't have any issues
We have the same Issue
what OS? and check the log for errors/warnings
if its a provider, it may be on their end as the binary name changed, but they should be using the bootstrap executable anyway
Yeah, it's a provider, for me anyway. I sent in a ticket so hopefully that gets sorted. Thanks.
Yea it did the same thing to my Server. Ticket submitted so hopefully it can get fixed soon
For anyone else using PingPerfect, click the "Swap to current branch" in your control panel, and it resolves the Error message issue
@naive onyx It's not your provider it's the recent steam update broke the SteamCMD commandline causing alot of providers to be unable to automate nearly all steam based dedicated servers. People directly affected are people who use and have installed mods on their server.
Is it not possible to Host a server directly from my PC anymore? Do I have to buy a server from one of the many providers? If it is possible, anyone got a guide handy?
im hosting from a home server.. not impossible
The guide under the How To's on the Steam forums is still fairly relevant
where can i find a better batchfile ( .bat ) ?
is there an 4 hours restart batch file for a dedicated server ?
Know anything about Windows batch? Add a loop marker to your batch file, <start server>, 4 hour (14400s) timeout, taskkill, goto loop marker. Very basic way to get what you want, may stop auto restart on crashing as it's untested
do not know very much about the batch scripts no?
if i'd like to open a server with just the ingame Host feature. What ports do i need to open?
7777, 27015 TCP/UDP @merry urchin
both maps are very large and tough to run and play at the same time especially if you have under 8gb of ram
Thank you looter
do someone has an example of a gami.ini file for survival
hello
I'm a Chinese player, and the ping of this game is so bad that I feel like I'm playing the game.
I found out in the fight that I couldn't hit him.
I hope to solve this problem quickly.
And I didn't use the accelerator.
And now there's no broken bones except for the dinosaurs Rex thought.
@eternal breach
Roughly how long will it take
And I don't know why many of my friends can't play this update
This game optimization hopes to improve
uhm, is this normal? the ai seems to just die after a while and then respawn again. there are dead small ai bodys all over the map. do they all starve one after another? xD
@proud plinth it looks like your server has a custom ServerDeadBodyTime setting in the servers Game.ini
ah yes thank you. thats the case
Hi
anyone having crashes with new update ? got such ingame hangs on a 10-15 minute interval...
@eternal breach good evening to you sir!
We are haveng severe issues with our big server after the update...the pings are insane and ai behaves kind of weird..
Could you please tell us what could be the reason of such issues?
@inner ermine what CPU does your server use?
@magic mauve @inner ermine I had a similar crash followed by a cascade of crashes on different threads with servers using an i7-7700k, was unable to pin down exactly what causes it but moving the servers onto machines with another CPU fixed the issue
@eternal breach it's using Intel Core i7 7700k, but i do have crashes on 8700 as well
@eternal breach i was able to reduce the amount of crashes by disabling SpeedStep Tech
Its definitely PhysX related with Kaby Lake+, I need to get a dev build out in debug config so I can get a useful dump to look into it further
@eternal breach it's nice to know that you are aware of it
@eternal breach i wonder if NVidia GPU addition can help with this issue?
possibly, I was also wondering if it was an issue with PhysX on the integrated GPU for Kabylake+, installing the latest intel graphics drivers didn't help the issue for me
two more kinds of crashes today. Happened on Core i7 8700. Within 5-6 hours interval. ~100 players on the server.
same issue as the other crash, CPU related
7700k, 8700k, etc. hang on threads which leads to the threads crashing
Hi there!
So I set up a server through PingPerfect about a month ago. It was running good, no issues to speak of really. Then this new update comes out, awesome update btw, and a bunch of new people make all these new servers. And suddenly mine stops letting me in.
I t's not popping up on the list at all.
I tried joining through my friends on steam who are able to find it on the list and get in with no problem and it sends me to some random server I've never heard of called Nosk (AI enabled)
I went onto Ping Perfect to see if there was a fix someone else figured out and they gave a few options.
- Going through the steam view menu on the main steam page to find the server and join that way. I found my server, clicked join and nothing happened.
- Going to the favorites tab in the view menu and finding the server via the IP/PORT and adding it to faves then joining that way through the menu. Did not work, it ways the server isn't responding. Which is weird because the server is up and others are able to join.
- Set the launch options with +connect (the IP/PORT I need to use to get into the server) And it just sends me to the same Nosk server....
I even tried changing one of my servers from Nitrado to run the isle but for some reason that one never even popped up in the list either...
My apologies for the wall of text but I am about at my wits end with this and really hoping you guys can help somehow.
NOTE: sometimes after LOT of refreshing it pops up.
My big concerns are simple, I wanna enjoy the server I am paying for and if it is doing this to me then is it doing it to others that are looking for servers?
hello lunara.
I would try to help you but I need all the information about the server, like what you have set.
It would be nice if you can send me some screens of it so that I can help you.
how to give the player or yourself a dinosaur?
you cant really do that right now without physically editing the database using a couple of other pieces of software. eventually there should be server commands that will allow admins to do stuff like that on the fly.
but I saw other admins do it on their servers
you just go into the database folder, open the file for the desired steam id with any text editor and change it as you wish. but that only works if the player isnt currently ingame, safe logged, or is gone for more than 5 minutes if he didnt safe log. on the next login, the changes take effect
We recently bought a The Isle Server on Nitrado, however each time we try to change to sandbox mode, it is stuck on the Survivial mode. Even choosing progression doesn't change it. Does anyone know the solution for this? 'Cause we paid money for it and now it doesn't seem to work.
We tried changing it even in the game-ini files, but this didn't helped either.
Asking the Nitrado Support didn't help aswell, sadly.
@steady meadow what is the command-line you are using to start the server?
We figured out why, thanks though.
hello, it's okay how I can see all type commands like / help, / weather, / season
@eternal breach how do you set up a sever by hosting with the ingame host.
can someone teach me
how to set upa sver with the ingame host button
where people can join

Hi guys anyone here knows if we are getting anymore admins command or what is game now is all we are going to get
Where do you put the server Ip that I want allocated when hosting a server?
afaik you don't give it an allocated ip, it just automatically has one assigned on creation of the server.
any new maps add to the game
Been looking all over the place but I can't find any solution. I am currently trying to run The Isle Dedicated Server with the tool and steam cmd. So far everything seems to be fine but the server itself does not seem to be popping up on the list. I am thinking I have something not setup correctly but nothing seems out of the ordinary. I have looked at most of the guides I can find but they are mostly outdated and don't help with this issue. Any help is appreciated. Don't be shy to tag meh.
I found out how to allocate ip's for multiple Dedicated Servers. Are you running this on your personal computer or a dedicated server? @naive onyx
This is a personal computer
Nope?
You can create a start bat and put the ip that it will be running on. This could be the issue as to why it is not appearing online.
Ignore my ports I have to change them when running multiple servers.
@naive onyx
π
Be sure that you add the multihome on your command line. That is where you will put your desired ip.
Would the ip be my ip?
Yes
Just gonna redo some things, I see something I missed while installing the server
Ok yep, refollowed how to do everything, server says its up but it does not show in the list still. Anyone got some more info on what might be the problem?
Are you setting the Ip to your local IP or external IP? Are the three ports you have the the server using allow traffic forwarding to your pc from the modem/router?
@little trench I am using the IPV4 Address in the command prompt when you type ipconfig. idk about the 3 port thing. I only have the query port and the query similar to what the person before was showing me. I have gone into the modem and done the whole port forwarding as far as I am aware. I was following mostly from this: https://steamcommunity.com/app/376210/discussions/16/1621724915777338010/ but when I start the server it either does not show up on the server list or if I use the other ip, the one you find online, assuming that's the public one, then it says it can't bind to the port.
www.myip.com/
Will list you external IP, bind the server to it, then so if someone else can see your server out of the house.
www.canyouseeme.org/
To check if your ports are open
Default ports unless you change them are 7777 7778 27015 (UDP)
C:\isle\TheIsleServer.exe /Game/TheIsle/Maps/Landscape3/Isle_V3?MultiHome=x.x.x.x?Port=7777?QueryPort=7778?MaxPlayers=100?game=Survival -log
MultiHome= set to the ip from the myIP site above/
If you have the server online, feel free to PM me and will see if it can be found.
Seems fine. Sadly I haven't done home hosting for a long time and don't have to use port forward.
Have you link this to your PC/IP
@little trench I have it connected to my PC, but it still is not seeing my service
yeah no, I just covered it :p
Ahh, then somewhere, your ports just aren't opening.
How do I solve that?
I don't have that much know how about that side of things. Only done it using telnet directly into the modem and completly openign the ports, that was an much older modem and is quite often locked out on new ones. That way also removed any security.
Hoep you work that much out, I can only assume that is your problem with out doign stuff myself :3
Ok, thanks for the help. I'll try and see what I can do from here.
I got it working, had to enable DMZ in the modem.
So are aware that having it enabled removes and protection the modem gives you making you more vulnerable to attacks or otherwise.
Yeah, did some research on it before I did.
@astral notch good evening to You!) Could you please spare some of your time to answer a question related to an issue im having with my newly bought the isle server?
Iβd say ask away
I know that server owners can enable growth on their sandbox servers, but is there a way to confine that growth to lets say.. only apex carnivores like spino, giga and rex? Or is it a 'everyone grows' kinda deal?
Everyone grows, yes. There is no way to make it only certain creatures grow currently.
ah ok, ty!
np :)
will rcon be worked on again?
Rcon came with battleye so I doubt it will be coming back since they moved away from battleye for good reasons, rcon is not really needed since we have server logs and ingame commands.
Out of game admin is very handy, while not needed, very much wanted!
So I have my own server that I set up the isle dedicated on. In my game.ini I have +ServerAdmins=(My steamID) but it is not setting me as an admin. Any idea why?
Nvm
@primal pecan Same problem here ^^
remove the "+"
Oh ? I'll try that.
Thank's
Yw
I hope devs know about the fact, that servers on the test level tend to crash a lot, even the pingperfect team told us it is the map's fault and not the servers. Can we hope for a fix soon?
it's a dev test map, you shouldn't really be playing on it honestly.
It worked just fine before the update
Can't have everything on an early access game that is still being developed! Dev game, dev map Hmm, I can't expect anything less thing perfection.
Hey, does Realism RP not exist anymore? :0
There are servers that have realism on them yes, but most of them are suffering low population due to dev kit being broken currently. x.x
Tho the entire game atm is sorta suffering low population, including the official servers
Hello there. I got some trouble with some part of my the isle server. ATM the server show the locked server icon even if he's not locked. No password or steam group in the game.ini file. People can join the server without problem. Did we have other place where we can "lock" the server than a forgot to check?
As a server admin how can one spectate and see all the player names?
Cannot see the option in the /help section
\ to spectate, delete key to say player names
Great thank you ^.^
One other thing, i tried following intrustions on steam to give a player a dino. Sadly it did not work.
(Trying to give our admins certain dinos)
If anyone could walk me though it would be great.
Which instructions?
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1231855950
I gave that a try
This guide will tell you in text form how you as a server owner of a The Isle server can disable any Faction from your server and how you can also access and edit the database in your server to be abl
@naive onyx
The text part, i had to do the manual entrey thing and upload but when i logged in, it just brought me back to the main menu screen.
What dino did you try to be?
Alberto
And you used the right class name?
I believe so. I just copy and pasted what was on that forum
So you changed the code name from βEnterNameHereβ to βAlbertβ I think it was last?
Yep i just sent you what i had typed in
π
Ok new question, when we load up the sever it has a lock showing on it.
People can still get in without a password which is fine. We do not want it locked. I have done though the files and made sure there is no password but when we restart the server it still shows up.
Any idea how to remove this?
DynamicTimeOfDay
as well is this to controll the day-night?
Dynamic time of day currently does not function, but yes this would control the day/night cycle. Also not sure about the lock. Haven't seen that happen with no p/w before. Have you got a steam group linked to it perhaps?
Yea we have a steam grouped link is that what causes it?
@naive onyx
Yeah I believe so. It used to lock it to people in the group.
Oooo thank you! I will remove that then i think ^^
I got the same problem with the lock... And I have no password and steam group..... If this work for you I will be curious to see your game.ini π
We got the lock to go poof ^^ Thanks for helping!!
@wise grail I can send you our game.ini if you want
Not a problem π
If you can by mp I will be happy π @sonic horizon
Would anyone here happen to have a list of all the database "Character Class" codes for the dinos? Like all the ones currently in-game? Currently trying to get a theri in via database editing just so we can figure out the code, but nothing we're trying is working. If someone already has a put together list, that would be nice
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1231855950 first section has them all
This guide will tell you in text form how you as a server owner of a The Isle server can disable any Faction from your server and how you can also access and edit the database in your server to be abl
bless you
I gotchu :p
Hello, could you tell me how I can use a dinosaur that is not added to the survival mode? I am an administrator of a server and wanted to know how I do it.
@mild night Step 2 of the link I just posted can help you with that ;p
@vernal nova Pretty sure legacy is borken right now, especially if you're wanting to host a server in there. Only Public and Development Branch work properly as far as I'm aware and those two are on the same version right now anyway.
Can someone point me to a guide on how to set the day night cycle. I am a new isle owner and can't seem to find a clear cut guide for this. Thanks.
@sick belfry In the server settings itself it currently doesnβt work at the moment Iβm pretty sure.
@naive onyx Thanks, that's good to know.
The best way to change day/night would be using the ingame commands rn
Okay, will do. Thanks again.
No problem π
hello everybody would like to know which command of spectate mode
@stable citrus \ to spectate, hold shift and \ to teleport to where you are in spec
@naive onyx thanks
π
hello guys i am new here and really would like to know if anyone knows the path for the thenyaw island map because my hosting website wants a path of that map to let me play on it ^^

ohh ill try it out thank you ^^
could u tell me pls where you find that one? i mena there's no official site posting them or?
Just in here https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1502947359 Step 4: Server Setup towards the bottom, all the current maps are listed there.
Having had trouble finding a clear and updated way to do this, I decided to create this guide for those of you who wish to host a dedicated server. This is a server you can host on your computer and n
OMG SO MUCH THANKS TO YOU thats wonderful -
i need some help again o: i am using zap hosting for my server and got the same problem as 4 month before if i try to use the path for thenyaw island and try to start the server the sever is shutting down without any logs left
@barren steppe How much RAM have you got on the server?
wev got 13 gb and the server is working now but everything is bugged i was changing the name and the map into something dififferent and then the server told me it couldnt start then i was watching the isle server category and found my server with its old name and its old map
strange
well at least you got it working, never heard of zap hosting so I can't say I know how good or bad it is
id like to know which hosting websites the most of you are using iv never tried my luck with ping perfect is it good? i am not sure but it was the first hosting website that existed wasnt it?
@barren steppe I have used pingperfect in the past and they're not bad at all. Everything you need is there mostly and very rarely has problems in my experience anyway. I have since moved to hosting via. my own pc since I have upgraded and am able to do so. But pingperfect was a good starting point for me.
okay i think i am waiting for the hosting websites response and try to discuss that with them. maybe they are kind enough to refund that server but i couldnt rly use it all all it is bugged as hell π¦
Yeah, some websites are a hit and miss from what I have heard, again, can't speak from experience. Only ever went with pingperfect. Hopefully all goes well.
What kind of resources does a 50 slot server take, roughly?
Depends, what map do you plan on running @hollow moon
thenyaw
Ok, thenyaw doesn't need as much RAM as V3 does, so what I would do if you have the option and funds are:
CPU priority: High (Highest)
Hosted on: SSD
Extra RAM: 3-4 GB (6 GB)
Everything in parenthesis is an "if you want to be safe and can afford it."
I've found that's a pretty reliable setup, and I know that Ping allows all these options. Were you planning on hosting it yourself, or were you going to use a provider? And if so do you know which one yet?
Was considering a 32gb ram dedi from SoYouStart
for Isle and MC
That good?
I could probably do a 100 slot Isle server and 50 slot mc at 32gb ram I'd say?
@violet marsh
Oh so are you going to run ut from your own system?
renting a dedi from a dedi farm
Ah. Yeah, looking at them they don't seem to give you a lot of room when it comes to only using what you need. All of their plans looked like they would work fine, so if you can afford it I say go for it.
How do I make le server
Depends on how you want to host one
Directly from your PC or from a server provider online?
What would be minimum server specs to run a 50 slot server?
I never got any specific specs on my post above just a 'should work' but we might go with eoreality dedi instead of sys which has half the ram.
24 hours later and no answer? Lol not many server owners in here?
I think its more so you were given an answer. If you want to rent from a server host and if you can afford it and they are good then go for it, otherwise if your computer is good enough then host it from there.
I can only say from my experience using Pingperfect it wasn't so much the slots that would be the worry, but moreso the maps. Thenyaw atm doesn't require too much RAM, I think its 4GB? I could be wrong there, but in terms of V3 it needs more then that. But you said you are going for 32 RAM correct? Might be a bit much but again if you can afford it and want to have that much RAM then ok, but I'd say about 8GB maybe for V3? Should be able to change settings anytime though so the settings shouldn't be too much of an issue.
@hollow moon
Yea sys ran out of 64gb servers so we may go either for the sys 32gb, or eoreality, who is offering us 16gb dedi for the price of their 8gb. @naive onyx
Still lots to consider.
That's a fair amount of money there xD
Yea, but it's up to the other Co owners as well since we're splitting costs
Last I Looked at V3, just loading up took 7GB of memory on windows, add extra for connecting players. Games like CSS 50-70MB per player, can give that as a guide, Isle doesn't use as much last I looked. 16 will be good for the isle. 8 might be issues.
My friend and I have noticed that our server lock hasnt been working, and it doesnt appear to be working for most other servers who have chosen this option. Is that machanic currently not working or perhaps we're doing it incorretly?
You're supposed to link it to a Steam Group # correct?
You are but that feature is currently unsupported, I need to add it back in after recent engine changes
Okay great. Thank you @eternal breach
@little trench So your saying all 16gb (minus 2 or 3 for OS) would be enough for a decent sized one? How many slots would you say? [Please @ me or I won't see for a long time]
Umm how would I get my server to the dev branch map type? I'm new to this... Sorry
onto the dev map? or onto dev branch?
Erm.....dev map? I have a server under pingperfect. And I downloaded the dev update. But its not showing in my servers... so I was wondering how to change that.
So you have the DV_TestLevel in the commandline manager selected?
also if its not showing up in the server list try restarting the server
Oh! thank you ^___^
Not a problem :)
16GB inclusive of windows should give plenty of room to have high player count. I haven't ran a server for a little while now. While it uses a decent chunk of ram, it's mostly CPU intensive. An e3-1270v2 started to struggled with 80+ con-current players. Not sure how much it has changed, as that was back from when Redwoods V2 came out. & only asingle thread was used. @hollow moon
Hmm, SYS uses a i7-8700k on their 64gb dedi if we go with that, but eoreality uses a processor similar to that you posted.
Recently updated and restarted our Pingperfect server, but it's not showing up on the server list in game. Any troubleshooting tips?
Having the same problem as Super-who-locked.
@mossy moon We reached out to PingPerfect and they got it all figured out for us!
thanks @arctic apex
Hey (I know this is not the good subject) buthow to use admin command (like fly,tp,seeing player and IA)
but how*
@stark apex Do /help if youβre an admin to see a full list of commands ingame. In terms of seeing player/ai names the default key is the delete key, and to go into spectator mode itβs the \ key. To teleport to the area where you are in spectator itβs just SHIFT \ and if itβs an area you can tp too your dinosaur will appear there.
Thanks and help I write this in a chat ?
Just /help in chat yeah
Who here has experience with CitidelServers? They any good if we went with them instead of a dedi? (We have the dedicated core selected)
Iβve heard of them, seen what there options are, they donβt appear to have a ram option? Iβm unsure how that side of things works but I assume itβs gotta work somehow. Iβd say most server hosts are fairly similar, just the difference is pricing and maybe support, sometimes functions that are meant to work donβt work or just arenβt there. I havenβt personally hosted or heard anything about them but I only went through one soooo xD but yeah maybe someone else here knows of them and whether itβs better or whatnot.
Cause we can get 50 slots (till we average say 30 or 40 then need more slots) with a dedicated core for $50/mo
right now the 2 of us can't afford more than 60/mo between us.
But once we get more activity, and hopefully some donations, we can upgrade to something better.
Have you considered hosting a server from your computer?
neither of our internets could handle it
at home I get 5 up
and if I wanted to stream, I'd have to turn the server off
so not really an option for us
I see
SoYouStart ran out of 64gb ram machines within 24 hours lol
or we might have gone for that.
Yeah
Is PingPerfect a more popular choice? How smooth do they run with like 30+ players?
I do see a fair amount of people go with pingperfect yeah
cept they're a bit more expensive, by like $10/mo with a similar setup
For Thenyaw would the default ram allocation be enough for PingPerfect? 
I never had too many issues with them
doesn't say what the default allocation is
Uhh, I think I had like 8gb on thenyaw? Not sure if you could go lower or not
It is a fairly small map so idk
They gave you 8gb w/ pingperfect? How many average players?
We want to make a server with zero lag or as close to zero as possible π
But still stick within 50-60/mo range
I think at one point we got a full 30 players, never averaged at that though.
And yeah you can go higher for ram
and no real complaints of lag?
I just chose to do 8 since it was the cheapest I could go
The only issue with lag would be if there was too many bodies lying around but thatβs expected
yea, I guess I mean connection lag, not so much framerate
Yeah thatβs what I mean
For some reason people complained their ping was higher and when the bodies were gone they stopped
Did you use the standard option or 'extreme performance' datacenters?
I just used the slandered I think
hmm, looks like we can get a 50 slot, w/ SSD set to Yes, and High Priority CPU for like $46/mo
that's affordable for us
Thatβs including the ram or no?
Hmm
But CitidelServers can do 50 slots with a completely dedicated core for $50/mo
in Texas which is the middle of the 3 owners, so we'd focus on US players but ofc, anyone can join from anywhere.
Yeah
Don't really need 'dedicated IP' right? Just search for or find server by name?
saves $3/mo π
Yeah xD
I wonder... with citadel... if we have 'dedicated core' do we need to set cpu priority?
I wouldn't think so.
You wouldnβt think so but you never know
So many choices. So hard to pick lol
Yeah
I think the best way to go is just get what you can afford and think will work and if it doesnβt work out things can be upgraded/downgraded when necessary
Yea. I'll get back to my co owners and let them know.
Alright, good luck π
Thanks! We had to kick one of the potential co-owners because he refuses to support Isle lol
so it went from 3 way split to 2 way.
Ouch
still waiting on them to confirm we want to go through with what we have selected haha
Now I'm waiting on one to get off work, haha.
haha
Hey @naive onyx how would we increase the ai spawns?
Is 100 the limit of spawns or a percentage?
The 100 is the limit of spawns yes
there should be another option that is like 1.0 or something that's the rate at which they spawn
yea, we want to have enough food for our carnivores.
Do you have a config you wanna share?
for rates so I can learn how it works
like we want longer days and shorter nights
not like bermuda which have like 2x night 1x day xD
I'm pretty sure atm its not working correctly. But I just have the AI at 300 at 20.0. But like I said I am not sure if it is actually working or not.
doesn't generate a lot of lag right?
50 slots with dedicated core
wanna join our server discord for help with initial setup? I can dm it to you
alright
So we just rented a server, configured it, waited a couple minutes but we can't find it in the list. Here's the console, if it helps:
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/505217317689622528/505522224522985482/unknown.png
We just did a 'steam update' so it is fully up to date. Stable branch.
From CitadelServers.
@little trench do you know anything about this?
Tried lowering the steam 'automatic pings per minute' and lowered that a couple times
did you do a restart after the update @hollow moon ?
yes, 4 times
and even tried switching it to beta/dev branch and stolid can't find it
server restart or game or both @white kite
cause we've tried both
server is idling around 2.25gb ram
(8% ram usage roughly)
im not too familiar with server hosting, dint know if the issue is the server not having the proper settings or if its a game related issue 
Stolid says config looks normal
Here's our config @white kite (XXXXed out the discord invite and db pw)
and no response to ticket in 30 min, not sure what to do.
Anyone? Paid $50 for this server and we want it to work lol
@hollow moon which provider did you end up choosing?
oops nevermind just saw
See if they have something involving changing a command line
PingPerfect is giving us a 48 hour trial. If it works, we'll put up a dispute on paypal for citadel
Ok, are you running the Thenyaw map?
Ok, now are you wanting it on the public branch, or the dev branch?
Just update it to dev branch and tell me when it finishes downloading
Believe me, you don't want beta
that's what I meant
beta is the term on steam
yeah keep downloading beta
3gb left to download on my end haha
Ok, now on the server how did you last update it? Or did you update it at all?
I ran the steam update 2x
once on stable
once on dev
(as in another running it after initial dl)
Ok, give me a sec and I'll put together a list of quick instructions
alright. that config txt I posted up there is the settings we want
Ok, first I think there was an issue with your config file, so I deleted some things I think were causing compatibility issues, and left everything else, trying not to delete anything I don't think would cause issues. so delete everything in the old one (via the text editor), and paste what's in this one.
what line in particular?
Ok, so first to make sure you and your server are on the right branch. From your main Pingperfect gamepanel,
- find the button that says Legacy/Beta update, and click it.
- From there, use the dropdown menu to select development.
- Then, use the execute command to run it through.
- Let the wheel quit turning, and then go back to the main Game Services screen.
- From there, stop the server using the big red stop button.
- After it's stopped, let it set for about 30 seconds to a minute.
- Once that's done, start back up the server, and give it a minute or two.
- When you're done downloading the beta for the game, you should be able to find your server in the list. If you can't, say something.
^^^ is for after you change the config file
and there were a few lines, such as the battleye being set to true, and then there were three : ` marks before the main block at the top of the file
I've already ran that bit to enable dev build. I always turn the server off before running things like that.
ah, discord formatting ```
Yeah. Anyways, copy and paste that file exactly and it should work. I believe the problem was with the config file, but it wouldn't hurt to run the development update again just in-case.
yea but I still think we'll move to pingperfect
their ticket response times are miles better
Ping perfect is, as far as I can tell, one of the most widely used services to run the Isle, and I imagine that has a reason behind it such as the ticket responses. Their customizability is also pretty great.
@violet marsh Hmm, is this normal? I waited 45 seconds before starting.
What do you mean? Was it a crash or?
it hasn't gone past 4.5mb of ram usage
You've lost me, what's happened? Did the server crash, did you crash, did it work fine?
oh there, it's slower at starting up than it showed for citadel. Just now updated to 300mb
citadel showed 2gb almost within 30s
Do you just mean downloading the dev update?
That's done. I waited 45s then pressed start on the server
Ok, and you still can't find the server?
What's stuck at 300mb?
ram usage
it showed about 2gb on citadel for idling
but here its not showing even 1gb lol
but at least they're responding to my replies to the ticket within 5 min lol
vs 1 hour and STILL no response on citadel
refresh the page and see if the value changes any great amount
320.63 mb ram, still
apparently NONE were selected by default O_o
I picked thenyaw
/Game/TheIsle/Maps/Thenyaw_Island/Thenyaw_Island?MaxPlayers=50?game=Survival
Yeah, that would probably be the reason why XD Yeah that starts the game in survival gamemode. Were you wanting survival? or sandbox or progression?
can we even host progression servers anymore
i'm not sure
The log is generally supposed to look like that as far as I remember
Have you checked to see if it's up and running yet?
They're checking on their end.
they got it working @violet marsh
π Glad to hear
is there a list of admin commands I can view?
like to kill myself? My other owner is a para and I'm a rex lol
No way to kill yourself, but if you type /help into chat it'll show you a list of available commands
and you can use the \ key to go into spectator cam
great \ is set to my discord chat overlay lol
and if you'd like to teleport to the location of our spectator cam, hold down shift and press the \ again
rip my dude
iirc its done by editing the database
fun, something to learn, that involves restarting the server I assume?
ay back in 2016 that's what i would do, but i presume someone must have made a better way since then
cause having to restart server just to change a donors dino could be irritating
if there's like 20-30 on
or more

look at #5 @hollow moon
Having had trouble finding a clear and updated way to do this, I decided to create this guide for those of you who wish to host a dedicated server. This is a server you can host on your computer and n
Hey guys! I do not recommend Citadel Servers. It took them over 3.5 hours to respond to our initial ticket telling them our server would not function or boot up.
Then after 4 hours, they said 'we fixed it' but I don't have a way to confirm since we've moved to PingPerfect. Much better service.
@white kite I responded to them with this:
4 hours, no acknowledgment? Is that how you treat customers? Nope.
Lmao short wait my ass, ping perfect took literally one minute to help us with the server. And no more than 5 minutes on any ticket. 4 hours is not acceptable.
I can safely say, that this right here... Ain't it chief.
^^
We will always recommend against purchasing from these guys to anyone who asks here.
OMFG. They have a clause that if you chargeback to them, they can hit you with a 100 euro charge.
What kind of company does that?

Damn. Thanks for the warning, not that I'd host but still
That's not the way to treat customers.
They should, at the very least, acknowledge they're working on it.
But nope, zip, no response for 4+ hours.
and the ticket was marked "HIGH Priority"
That's really crappy man. Sorry that had to go down like that.
That unprofessional response makes me feel like they get a lot of that.
@hollow moon Citadel servers are just a joke. Something did boot regardless, to why you couldn't see ti is another problem
Ordered a small server to try in Australia. Server ended up being in the UK. The furthest location they have from Australia. In ticket reply after several DAYS. They claim they couldn't change the IP on Isle servers due to the game. No IPs in Aus(Which was very false doing it myself in testing)
No refund, and refused to. I had a server despite being half a world away, they had their money is all they cared about
damn
Wow, that sucks. The strange part is they did change our ip address to fix it O_o why wouldn't they do the same to you. This company man. They really are garbage.
