Give them some grief. I hope they go under someday and have to shut down lol.
So @naive onyx I'm trying to add Spino to a selectable list of dinos for me (as owner of my server) but it doesn't give me the option haha
"UnlockedCharacters": "GigaSubS;SpinoJuvS;Spino;", was added to my json profile
Okay I also set this:
But it still put me in as a utah (was utah logged off)
That should work, right? Does the server need to be restarted? Or just the player need to relog?
You keep putting spaces xD you don’t need a space between the the : and the “Spino”
@hollow moon
Oh hold on
Sorry haven’t edited players in a while
You saved the file right?
And make sure that they safelogged as well before you saved the changes. I’d also just remove the added unlocked characters just to make sure, should just have the “” @hollow moon
srry, been busy. Trying to setup streaming my desktop (so I can game over internet, not just remote use) over to my laptop over the internet haha.
My friend Timothy said he didn't do a safelog and it worked for him.
safelog or wait 5 minutes before changing should work.
Hmm, interesting. But why did Timothy not have to safelog? lol
And worked for him? lol
How can i be administrator in my own hosted server? I mean in-game i clicking host and etc. Not a real server from pingperfect or etc.
@merry urchin Add something like this:
ServerAdmins=76561198117412012 into your first section of your config. You will need to find the users "Steam64 ID" first. So you can use something like steamid.io/lookup, type name, then third line is "steam64" I believe
@merry urchin if I"m not mistaken you mean hitting the host button in-game, and as far as I'm aware that doesn't work except for LAN unless you portforward so others can join, and even then I think it automatically makes you an admin, but I can't say for sure as I've never hosted that way before.
It makes you admin but it’s almost as if it’s fake, cause you can’t really do any admin commands, last I checked anyway
I can not transfer the server to Dev branch
What should I do?
hello guys, I got a the isle server who looked to be configured to be on the dev branch of the isle... we did not wanted that. I look in the server files but I cannot seem to find where and what I need to do to change the server to the public branch. Thank you
is this hosted on your pc or from a server provider?
a server provider
Have you gone to the main area and clicked steam update? @wise grail
Should change it to the public stable branch
there is no steam update interface (I hate this provider). I have the choice only at the creation
Which provider is this exactly?
gportal
You might need to create a ticket with them and hopefully they can sort it out, if there is no steam update option or "Beta/Legacy Update" option or update option at all then that might be what is needed. I am not familiar with Gportal however I have heard about them in the past that they have limited functionality.
Hello ! What is the line to add in config to deactivate Alt turn, and were do I add it ? Thank's
I think it’s bServerTurnInPlace=true in the game.ini @somber merlin
Or maybe it’s bServerAllowTurnInPlace=true
@naive onyx I wrote in support and they can not help, so here I thought someone met with this
Well I am not sure what the issue is apart from the fact that the file for it to download is missing.
Who's the server provider?
@naive onyx Pingperfect server
@naive onyx Thank you ! It is the second one : bServerAllowTurnInPlace=true|false
It's what I view . Anyway thanks @naive onyx . Finally we decided to stay in dev branch.
my friend switched her server to dev branch and it took a few days for the server to finally pop up- which was yesterday. except that people that were an admin previously have lost their admin role once it switched over to dev branch and she's already tried removing the roles and readding them without any success. anything that can be done ?
In the config files do you have it ServerAdmin=76561198 etc...
Some people add the + by mistake of the old setup
Also when they made the changes did they restart the server after?
@storm phoenix I’d say try updating to the normal branch, then try going to dev again, if not then backup the server files and reinstall the server.
she said she's restarted it several times and did the serveradmin line already
@naive onyx I have already tried to translate there and back, in all cases this error
Try reinstalling the server then, there might be an issue somewhere along the lines @storm phoenix
@naive onyx I reinstalled the server 2 times
I do not know what to do
Linux server support will never return?
Hello
How start server dedicate on dev branch
Thank you
👍
Hello everyone
Thank you for your answer about the devbranch now I have a looped line on the console how to settle this thank you in advance
IsleEnvironment: Verbose: [UpdateMaterialParameters] SkyLight not assigned
@merry urchin This is normal for this version of dev branch, something the devs will sort out later I'm sure. Just ignore it for now.
@naive onyx ah ok thanks for your answer
Not a problem
@merry urchin Should be fixed next patch
@eternal breach ok ty

Do not trust them if you actually want support.
@merry urchin and @karmic gull are co owners and can confirm what I've said about how horrible they are. They ran off with $50 of our own money and refused to refund us.
@kindred tartan has much much better customer service
They reply to our tickets within 5 min average.
I have also had bad experiences with citadel in the past
We try our best 😃
Ouch! Maybe you should pull support from them if you can @eternal breach?
we don't regulate GSPs, free market and all
Yeah it was a bad experience with citadel. Not only did they not help they where rude about it.
And threatened to charge us back 100 euros.
They probably used some of our money @karmic gull to pay people to give positive reviews lol. I remember after my review they dropped to 3.5 stars.
Well the last time I tried renting a server from pingperfect they never sent me my control panel login and when I tried to contact them they never replied
Really? They've never been anything but fast and friendly to us.
Well, CitadelServers never gave us one either. But they (PingPerfect) got the server working from ticket within 15min.
Well I'm requesting a refund
From citadel because it's crap and the files I edit don't seem to change anything in-game
Careful if you do a PayPal charge back. They threatened to charge us 100 euros if we did that.
Lol they don't even have a rep here in this discord, that's how shady Citadel is.
I didn't pay with PayPal
Ah OK. I didn't want to give them our CC info, as I do with almost all companies.
If they don't refund me, I will do everything possible to make their website deserted C:
Because in the past they have given me bad experiences
I wanted to give them a second chance
I guess everyone has bad experiences, but let me tell you, Citadel is one of the worst GSP's out there, and even Looter doesn't agree with them.
Hm
@hollow moon can you send a link to the pingperfect site?
pingperfect.com @merry urchin
I can't find my server
With ping or citadel?
it looks like its allocating etc for it?
But that's the major issue we had with Citadel.
Server never showed up with default settings.
It said "cannot find the file specified"
With ping, they were able to get it working within 15-20 mins, with 2-3 responses to the ticket during the whole process.
With Citadel 4.5 hours went by
with no response
ah yea now i see that. Did you try making a ticket?
They responded within 2-3 mins average to all my tickets
Uh okay
Try making a ticket with "High Priority" -- they should respond within 2-3 mins, no more than 5ish
Hm
@merry urchin Technical support does not help with this trial
I also could not help me
I'm having trouble putting my server to Dev Branch, It's set to Legacy. But every time i try to get it to dev, it just switches back? ( In Ping Perfect. ) Has anyone got any ideas?
Having the same problem as you guys ^^
now its stuck on legacy??
Same, @mint hatch
It showed Legacy since it was the first option in the list @mint hatch @merry urchin -- But our server was on Dev in PingPerfect. Zero issues here.
Hmm
@merry urchin How did you transfer the server to the developer branch?
I can not, writes that the system can not find the specified file
FYI the file not found is the script just making sure there are no left over files that should not be there
I really wish that would have been said at the beginning, but thanks.
I'm having a terrible issue since the last few updates. I host it dedicated from steamcmd of my server rig and now no matter what i do it doesn't show up in the list. It was up and running great before till the recent updates. I just deleted everything and redid it and still nothing. I need help really bad
So I noticed a 'gameusersettings.ini' option in our pingperfect server that says 'mods go here' -- is there a mod role ingame in addition to admin?
(pls mention me or I wont see)
@hollow moon No that was for enabling the use of mods on your server, such as maps, skins, or stat mods. Not like an administration type of mod.
ah ok lol
I am used to 'mod' also being short for moderator
although that would be nice.
Having a mod level where they can't adjust weather/time/etc.
Just kick/ban
That wouldn't be a bad idea. Why don't you post something in #general-feedback ? I'm sure it can be done and most server owners might appreciate a second level of authority.
I'm on Mobile for the night unfortunately.
Hey is there anyway I can edit the stats of the dinos on my own server?
Edit stats? Don’t think so. That’s a dev kit thing.
Hello dears, I have a little issue. I have a PingPerfect server and I try to update it via "steam update" and my server doesn't show up in the server list. Am I doing something wrong?
encountered this issue before- steam update downright fucks the server up and sends it back to live branch if you're on dev branch. it doesnt even update the server and deletes the dino data. you have to manually update it
@mossy moon
Uh how do I manually update?
Update it the same way you first switched to dev branch. @mossy moon
So on my server that i run... alot of files popped up today that say something like Engine\Binaries\ThirdParty\Steamworks\Steamv139\Win64\logs\workshop_log.txt can anyone tell me what this means?? also AI is not spawning like it used to on it...
i am on the normal isle not dev branch
If need a hand to setup a server in a dedicated environment, not a GSP like PingPerfect, feel free to DM me (I don't keep a close one on chat much since Linux support was abandoned due to the engine, so please DM), more then happy to help anyone!
Is there anyone knowledgeable who can answer this real quick? https://steamcommunity.com/app/376210/discussions/16/1744478429685382958/
I'd love to answer you question but I'm not sure for non dedicated
I actually figured it out. It’s in AppData.
FYI for that you open windows file explorer and in the address bar enter > %localappdata%\TheIsle\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor
Or press Window Key + R and the same > %localappdata%\TheIsle\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor
and edit the game.ini as if it was a server.
Anyone know the Steam App ID for the dev branch so i can download it via steam cmd
Or know of the proper way to change a self hosted server to dev branch
lol
nvm got it 😄
ty all
what's the code to set people as mercs?
Hello, I am not able to put my server online, I have already updated the game but I am still not able to have to delete the db
What's up?
hey dose anyone know the code for old rex
thanks
@narrow jackal
Would you happen to know subadult rex? old version?
We tried
TRexSubAdult but it didnt work.
@sonic horizon ill get it when i get home .-.
Thanks ^.^
;-;
ok well thank you!
Anyone know why I can't change someone to a Shantu in my server? I know it works since Dev 1 had them on it a few days ago for the charity stream. All coding is correct as far as I can see. Did they change the model name?
@merry cypress Its code changed from Shan to Shant
mhhh.. @narrow jackal Can you tell me the code for the old rex?
RexAdult is the code for old rex, all other codes are here and are updated: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1231855950
@dusky hearth
Oh you have updated this List. Perfect. Thanks @naive onyx
Not a problem! :)
advertising your own post
@naive onyx
Well it seems like people keep asking so
Hello, i need to know something, is the host your server fonction working on devbranch ?
I mean i can host it and play on it but is it possible for someone else to join it for example and playing on it ?
Not sure if this is the right place for asking it, if not just let me know
nobody else can join your host server
they should be able to as long as the ports are forwarded in windows and on your router, 27015-27017, 7777-7778 TCP/UDP
............
Greetings to all
So I would like to set the host in Eastern Europe or Asia for example up to half of players from Chinese and Russia but there is not a single official(no one official) server in these regions. For example, I live in Asian Russia and would play on dev but I have ping 300-350 on the nearest server and its not playable. Maybe install host in Moscow or other Asian cities.
How do you disable the old Rex Subadult model on a server? The dino "code" that I have tried doesnt seem to be working. Thank you.
How do i set the new v3 map for my server? what is the command line when choosing the map?
Anyone having issues with AI spawns on V3
Our server wanted to change the map and decided on V3. Our problem is there are no AI spawning is there something we need to add or is this a problem with the map?
Could be an issue with the map, unsure though
@untold ravine /Game/TheIsle/Maps/Landscape3/Isle_V3
How do host a server?
There’s guides online you can look at
yes once i fixed it thank you anyway @naive onyx i could not get V3 to spawn in AI but i bug reported it.
according to the log whenever we sometimes try to kick a player our server crashes some seconds after.
It mass tries to kick until he/she is kicked. Which results in a server timeout...
same here
@left oxide @white goblet Those messages are related to Epic Game's new steam authentication setup and can be ignored, the player should eventually be kicked once they are fully initialized while connecting due to a steam authentication error, and it's unrelated to the administrator kicking built in to isle
If you believe it is related to a crash, when the next patch is out and it happens you can send me your crash dump's folder and I will take a look to make sure it's not a crash I haven't encountered on the official servers
@eternal breach 👌
so i just started my own server and really trying to figure out how to choose what dino i am as well as learning how to use spectate can anyone help me???? brand new to isle hosting
Spectator cam is \ I am not quite sure what you mean by choose what dino you are, do you mean, choose one that isn't on the selection screen, like say you're in survival but want to be something not survival?
@naive onyx do u know what the command is to display player tags as well
just cant find any updated dino names for liek the spino
ty @naive onyx
No problem!
Is this the proper code for the target line for v3? /Game/TheIsle/Maps/Landscape3/Isle_V3
@naive onyx
Yep
hmm
cant seem to get that to work
just keeps spamming a bunch of yellow messages
can you ss the yellow messages?
yeah
Ill check it but it spammed a crap ton
For v3?
yeah
No problem, glad to help!
not sure if this is the right place to ask this, but i just started my own server (rented) - And im trying to change my character into a Shant, can someone please explain to me why this isnt working? -

any feedback at all for this would be greatly appreciated, ive been struggling with it for hours and google is no help..
<@&401466542140817419> ?
@pastel vine here is a wonderful guide made by StolidSnow0#2458 that might just help you.
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1231855950
i followed that exact guide... it isnt working and i dont know why
@naive onyx let's ask our pro guy then 
that would be greatly appreciated
because i was following that guide to the letter and it doesnt seem anything i try is working what so ever
might come down to how your hosting your server. are you renting one? using steam cmd to host it yourself? or are you using the "host" button?
im renting a server from Citadel Servers
its very similar to PingPerfect in appearance
so i have access to all the folders, im able to download a player profile, update it with NotePad++ and then re-upload it
however, when i log back in, im still the same dino
i even tried it with having no dino and it didnt change anything either
whoa i got it to work, but not for the Shant
or for spino
so the guide works, i tested it for adult rex, i suppose the character names for the special dinos are changed then?
I was just checking citadel's site for some info that could allow me to help you but nothing relevant unfortunately. I think you will be better off waiting for StolidSnow0's reply as I'm out of my area of expertise here.
well his guide seems to work, however, the character names for Shant and stuff are not working for me
oh some of the newer names dont work either, the TrikeAdultS one isnt working either
if i could get an updated list (Dev Branch) of the CharacterClass names please, since alot of them seem to not work
so is there a trick to getting AI to spawn on v3 map on one's server? They are enabled both the ai and the ai spawns, and even with four juveniles in one place where ai is known to spawn. the ai is not spawning at all ever.
Hi, I am trying to setup a server on linux
The server shows up in the steam server list but not ingame
@pastel vine From what I can see the guide is correct in the naming of the codes, I updated them recently and checked again just now to make sure. Are you making sure safe log out of the server before making any changes? Also did you make sure to delete the old file as well?
@fiery sinew I think V3 has a bit of an issue still with ai spawning, I'm sure it'll be solved soon enough.
@hollow bolt https://steamcommunity.com/games/TheIsle/announcements/detail/1702806817968306649 Unless I've missed something I think Linux isn't supported anymore currently.
@naive onyx
Would you happen to know what the oldsub rex code is?
We have tried a few things but none working
What have you tried?
What I got from here was RexSub, before it used to be like, TRexSubAdult but maybe it could also be just RexSubAdult
Ok ill try that one.
We tried TredsubAdult and the RexSubAdult
Alrighty
@naive onyx yes I've been safe logging out and deleted the old file before implementing a new one, so I'm not sure what my issue has been.
hmm
that's weird
And the steamID is correct?
uploading it to the right place etc.
if you don't mind could you send me the file you are trying to edit, you can dm me it since I keep those open if you prefer. Just tryna see what could be causing some to work but not others
Just want to give a shoutout to @naive onyx for teaching me what i needed to know and fixing my issue without delay, 10/10 very polite, very engaging and handled my problem like a true professional.
How does one turn off family share on a hosted server?
Apparently my server allows it but i didnt even think it was on option O.o
bFamilySharing=false
@pastel vine you get it figured out... how to change your dino
Has anyone heard if there is going to be a bug patch fix for server crashes???
@vast tangle Yeah, they just didn’t have the file spaced out correctly. Also there’s no eta’s so no, but what server crashes are you implying, just so it helps make it known
@naive onyx just the high pop server crashes due to pvp
Lots of bodies I assume then?
@vast tangle working on fixing the server crash atm
Ok thank you @eternal breach
hello, how would i be able to play as hypo on my own server?
you cant
just devs?
yep
oh ok
does anyone know the map path name for the v3 map? cause right now its stuck on thenyaw and I want it to go to v3. Cause at the moment this is the map path /Game/TheIsle/Maps/Thenyaw_Island/Thenyaw_Island
thank you @wind ermine
hey is there any way to change the spawns on the v3 map? cause currently whenever you try to spawn in as a creature it seems like you get the same exact beach spawn everytime. and it seems like there is only 1 spawn
and also what is the command to make bodies timers stay longer
There is currently no possible way to change spawns. Also I think the body timer doesn't work properly last I heard, and I'm not sure if it is still this but this is what I've found ServerDeadBodyTime= and then just add a number in there, keeping it at the default is recommended though since it causes issues with the ai as well.
@naive onyx but im only getting 1 spawn on my server? like is that the only one working
I guess? Either that or just bad luck
have you tried different dinos?
yea @naive onyx
Yeah, probably just one spawn or bad luck then, leaning towards the one spawn though.
@naive onyx
Each time i have typed
bFamilySharing=false
into my config files (while server is stoped), i save and then start up the server. When i go back to check its not saved and no longer typed in.
Any ideas what i might be doing wrong? The Admin put in at the same time saved just not that piece of coding and people are still able to use family share.
Maybe try bServerFamilySharing or something along the lines, could swear last I checked it was this
I think that worked 😃 at least the coding is staying there now ^.^
Thank you very much. Ill let you know when those who did use family sharing come to me in the morning upset they cannot get on their rexs >.>
XD alrighty, if the coding is staying I can only assume it works
I was wondering if a dev wanted to go on a server and scare ppl can he only do it on dev branch or can it be done on live aswell?? My servers are exploding right now had one but due to crashes and trying to find a good stable server pop I had to add another. I have only been hosting for 4 days and already up to 2 servers... might have to add another by next week.
Think it would be cool if a dev could come raise a lil ruckus in one of my servers as a hypo if they can and have time too
@naive onyx
Even with the code people are still able to get on using family share.
Hmmm, unsure what the issue could be then, my code for family share is bFamilySharing= but for some reason that just disappears for you, maybe try setting it to true? on whichever coding, probably the one that stays for you, but I'm pretty sure if it doesn't work its either borken or I'm not sure what, maybe try putting bFamilySharing=false directly under the server name if you aren't putting it there, might want to be there only to work. @sonic horizon
this is what my config looks like
that coding stays for me
how would i be able to make my server update to dev?
hey im having an issue with ai spawning near 1 player. like if that person goes near another person and theres multiple people then they seem to spawn otherwise if someone is by themselves it does not spawn any ai around them. Do i have to do something for that to work?
@snow topaz Are you hosting a server through a service provider or dedicated?
@wintry sonnet Ai is still currently buggy, it is being worked on.
ahh okie
Provider pingperfect@naive onyx
ah ok, to update to dev, go to the main control panel>Beta/Legacy Update>Open the dropdown and select Development
Thanks 🤙
No problem
I have now moved to WIndows and I can see the server on the Steam server list, but it wont show ingame ?
Any ideas?
What are the max number of players ?
Can anyone else see the server?
I’m not sure, maybe try lowering it down to 100 for now and see
The serverlist is just slow at updating / buggy
You found it?
yea
Error: CharRowName was None for zxe despite having valid save data, starting new character creation
now i get this quite a lot
Is there a way to persist UnlockedCharacters
Json vs Mysql ?
UnlockedCharacters isn’t important I don’t think
And don’t worry about the valid save data thing, afaik it’s nothing
How do I make more Dinos available for selection in Survival mode?
I thought that was the UnlockedCharacters thing
You can’t, the only way you can do it is by setting said player as the dino you wish to make them
Ok
Pretty sure the unlocked characters thing was for progression mode but that’s long gone
Yep
?
DatabaseType= None
SQLite
MariaDB
External database type.
DatabasePort= <integer> TCP port for SQL database.
DatabaseUser= <string> Username for database login.
DatabasePass= <string> Password for database login.
Isle server settings and configuration are controlled by several files and have subsections the value must be entered under. There are several options available on the startup command line.
Port, User and Pass but no Host ?
what is this for?
json is easier
A database can be access remotely easier
In the form of a dashboard
Instead of writing a daemon to watch the folder / game panel
well I have no experience in SQLite in terms of setting it up
@hollow bolt It's old configuration left behind from the previous SQLite database, currently unused
Ahh ok thanks
The current database is all flat-file/json in Saved/Databases for the server
whats the map code for the thenyaw map?
cause I want to get the 2nd server on thenyaw
Thenyaw_Island should work fine, as well as Isle_V3
I have this on right now
/Game/TheIsle/Maps/Landscape3/Isle_V3 iirc
would i still have the iirc?
the iirc is a shorthand of "If I remember correctly" (I think), so all you need is
/Game/TheIsle/Maps/Landscape3/Isle_V3
oh xD
Hello. I would like to create my own server on The Isle that I would be able to make myself and others able to spectate as Admins, change the amount of players who come on, etc. How do I accomplish this, and would it cost money?
Depends how you would like to go about it, there's there no pay dedicated way https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1502947359 or the pay way https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1502947359 The dedicated server is free and if you follow the guide well you shouldn't have to much of a problem, the other can be through any service provider, though in my opinion pingperfect sounds like a good place to start if you want to go the pay route.
Thank you!
Another three questions. By connecting the server to my router, would it effect the way it functions for the rest of my family? Will it make it harder for them to connect? Would it be a better idea to get a separate modem?
It shouldn't cause any issues, it doesn't change how it works, if anything it makes it easier for them to connect, if you mean server wise, but networkwise afaik it has little to no effect
Alright, sweet. Thank you.
@naive onyx Is there a way to play as HypoRex for server creators?
Hyper rex is currently locked to developers only
ah dang
If you found a way to become one we would consider it an exploit
👌
How do I make a server? I can only host and my game doesn’t show up for others.
or you can make a dedicated server, I put together some guides on steam for both ways
Got a question here. I just started a server on Isle V3. The server is online and works but when you choose a dino to play you just get stuck in a loading screen in the sky or end up under the map. Somebody knows what to do?
That’s weird, who’s the server hosted with, hows the ram?
RAM & stuff is totally ok and in 1 try I spawned right and could play normal. So I think something isnt loading correctly...? maybe spawnpoints or sth?
Not really sure, never heard of it before
trying to get ai to spawn on v3 map but with no luck any ideas
yea same with me ^^ im on the Normal Branch.
Yeah can't seem to get AI on V3 normal. Is it still using the July or previous map version? I see people mentioning no AI that far back.
i am really starting to wonder if anyone has an awnser.... lol
Our server has ai spawning on it. We just kept ai on the default settings I believe, but let me double check that. How are all of you hosting your servers @vast tangle @merry urchin @tepid wedge ?
Had the same prob with no AI
This is all of our ai settings in the game.ini config file, not sure if any of it is outdated and unneeded or not, but ai is spawning as it should and working correctly:
I did exactly this but it didnt work
Do you have it under the bracket statement [/Script/TheIsle.IGameSession]?
Sure
Only thing I can think of then is some conflicting setting. Can you screenshot your config settings and post them here or DM them to me?
does everything else there work as intended, and just the ai is broken?
or does any of that work
Why I'm asking is because your [/Script/TheIsle.IGameSession] is all lowercase, whereas mine is uppercase in the config file and everything is working. Another thing I'd suggest is setting the bServerDatabase to true so that dinos save, and because it could have something to do with the ai systems, though I may be completely wrong on that last statement.
Hm no, all other settings just work fine, it's only AI for me... You say I should enable the database? I'll do it next day and will tell you if sth happened then...
Just found another problem I missed before, disable battleye
you want that false
battleye is no longer the default security measure for the isle since it caused so many problems
Are you on a dev server? Because for release it's been confirmed through multiple sources the v3 map is borked.
That's another thing too. V3's ai spawns were pretty busted on public
Oh really? Alright o.o No I am not on Dev things. Just 1.51.8
that's probably the problem then. I keep forgetting that it was broken because the fix got pushed to dev so quickly
but yeah battleye still needs to be disabled
other than that switching to dev should make it work fine
Yeah not really an option for public server.
If they fixed AI spawn already in .51.9 ... why dont they give out this update for all?!? >.<
They will.
Oh man
Well I was told recently that there is ai but it's really low amount. I am using ping perfect which is running perfectly well with my other server.
Im no host but want to contribute to this conversation. Some servers I played on have a LOT ai and other really rare spawns. Just so you know
Is anyone else having trouble using bans with PingPerfect?
If they aren't working try the ingame banning system, /ban steamname length reason or /banID steamID length reason (get more info on /help)
@naive onyx Is there a way to ban an individual permanently using the ingame system?
Thank you! @naive onyx I really appreciate it!
No problem :)
I'm planning to make a basic non-dedicated server. As the owner, will I be able to kick or mute someone for doing something wrong?
Yes you can kick and ban and such, but a server wide mute as far as I am aware currently does not exist, but you can mute them for yourself in the player list
Alright, thanks.
Has anyone figured out how to get ai to spawn on the v3 map public side????
so i think this is a bug because i have yet to get a response on any way of fixing it.. so i have 3 servers running and for the most part 2 of them are full with the thenyaw map all 3 of my servers are survivle. i just started a v3 map for my servers but i cannot for some reason get any AI to spawn near player spawns. I understand that this map only has a few locations for player spawns but my large community is having a problem playing on the map due to no AI spawning near them.. this is a hosted server through pingperfect.com so i dont have full ftp access to the files to adjust the map. I really want to have players on this new map.. Is there anyway that i have just missed something or a possible bug? Any ideas on how i can fix this if not. These servers are stable branch and will be up. Thank you
@vast tangle That's you're problem. The current stable branch version of V3 has bad ai spawns if I"m not mistaken. The only way to fix it if I'm remembering correctly is to switch to dev branch, get the patch for V3, and play from there, or wait until they push the patch to public branch, though that might be a little bit as they start introducing new stuff to the dev branch pretty soon as far as we know.
Well that kinda makes having a v3 map pointless unless its sandbox. my whole community wanted to have a v3 map to play on to explore some of the new items that they have added, pushing this to dev branch would make it hard for my community members to enjoy both stable and dev due to having to download the game to switch back and forth. another thing i am wondering is how often do they push updates to the public branch of the game? I really hope it comes out soon due to the fact that i had to reduce the server slots allowed to be played on due to the server crashes on the public branch.. so i am hoping and praying that the fix comes soon i would really hate to have the 600 members of my community to have to move over to dev branch inorder to stick together..
Well if it helps this system will be changing sooner or later according to this @vast tangle
Tbh I'm not sure if I see a reason you couldn't simply put all your servers on dev branch, that way they are still able to choose the map they want without having to switch back and forth.
When the hypos do come out; will we be told the Injection codes? I for one do not know the Injection codes but im guessing it will be along the lines of. "HypoGiga" or "GigaHypo"
ty @naive onyx
Hello. Has anyone else been experiencing massive lag spikes or constant high ping on their server for v3?
I have the Problem to set the time on the Server. I have this command in my Game.ini :
[/script/theisle.igamemode]
ServerStartingTime=1350
bServerDynamicTimeOfDay=0
ServerDayLength=20
but i doesnt work. The day is 60 min always... did i make an mistake or is that an bug or something
This setting is something we can’t change anymore currently since they added the new day/night cycle a while back.
ah ok thank you very much 
You’re welcome
Does anyone have a temporary config to at least spawn a few AI on v3? Ive tried everything in the config to try to get anything im out of ideas
ai are bugged as of right now
Believe AI was adjusted in Dev branch, from what I can read up further
You can host more than one server if you open up more ports
like for example instead of just 7777-7778 you could theoretically do 7777-7780 or higher etc.
Yeah ports
My discord pals want to play on new server so I thought Of making one
but Im not good at it cuz I am really noob at hosting stuff
what are you guys using to host a server?
you doing it in game or on other programs
I use steamCMD to host a dedicated server
I made a guide on steam about the whole process if it helps https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1502947359
Thank you can you send it to me on DM? I will gladly read if when I gonna be on pc 💕 @naive onyx
Done 👌
Thanks :3
@naive onyx Do you know if Theri's code has changed from Theri? we're currently testing and Theri nor Therizino seems to be working.
oof sorry if it's a bit late for you also just noticed the time
Nice. Alright, we're double testing it now
alrighty
Right, it worked, there was a mistake when saving it the first time. Thanks for responding though 👍
Awesome, glad I could help
hello all
can anyone tell me how can i whipe my PP server and change it to v3 map?
but with saving all the admins and bans?
@inner ermine Ok, so you have a PingPerfect server and are trying to wipe the database as well as change the map to V3 correct?
yes)
PP did that for me but there is an issue with server, it cant connect to steam now
So now you have everything set up like you need it, you just can't get it to broadcast to the Steam network? Is PP still working on it or have they left it alone?
they are still working on it and do not answer to me for 1h+ already
Alright, well incase you ever want to do this again, the steps I would take would be to goto the Configuration Files, hit Text Edit next to the Game.Ini, then copy everything in there. Then I would go back to the main panel, near the top with the bolded and blue underlined words Service Information, I would find Actions and hit that, then hit the Reinstall and Repair blue buttons. After that's finished, I would go back into the configuration files, back into text edit for Game.Ini, and I would paste everything back in there. To set it to V3, you go to the Commandline Manager, and select the one that says Isle v3. From there it'll ask you a few questions, just choose what you want and go from there. After that's been done, your server should be fully wiped and should now be on V3.
But if PingPerfect is working on it, I would give them a little bit to fix whatever's come up so that you don't risk messing with whatever they're needing to do.
@violet marsh Thanks anyways, hope they will manage, but after reinstall they say that there is stil an error...
Hmmm. Just roll with the conversation and answer all their questions truthfully and they should be able to figure out something. PingPerfect has some of the better Customer Service out there than a majority of things XD
question, is there a way to teleport to someone based on their steam64 ID?
because some people have names that cant me replicated via normal means of type and you cant teleport to them or bring them
yeah iirc you can type their ID instead of their name @pastel vine
if i remember correctly
you could also hit SHIFT+TAB to open the steam overlay and select Previous Player, and copy their name or id from there
@pastel vine
ill try that and get back to you
okay so i tried to /bring UniqueID# and it says cannot find player
they are standing not even 10 feet from me
can't you right click > copy(or ctrl+c) their name and paste it directly?
Yeah, if you go to recent players and go to the persons profile you should be able to copy and paste that name
janky?
@violet marsh hi there
Fatal error: [File:Unknown] [Line: 1418]
No outstanding IO, no nodes in the queue, yet we still have 'PackagesWithNodes' in the graph.
that is the error i got
what could it be?
Hello. Has anyone else been experiencing massive lag spikes or constant high ping on their server for v3?
@inner ermine that crash occurs when you have timed out from the server, and crash during travel to the main menu due to a bug
@eternal breach Could you please guide me through sir?
I have been trying to find out the severe server crashing cause after the last patch
It's caused by an issue in the AI manager and should be fixed next patch, the server crash that is, the client crash you posted is you losing connection from the server and crashing on the way back to the main menu
PP have re-created my server from scratch and it had 150 slots, before the patch my 100 slots server crashed 2-3 time per 24h, after the patch my 100 slots server started crhasing more often
Now i have reduced the slots to 90 and still cant say that it can help
I have the most popular russian server and with 90 slots it crashes every 30 mins
@eternal breach my server crashed yet again specifically after 31 minuets of being online
every 31 min
is there a way to unlock dinos for anyone who joins my server? other than hard coding their player profile? like a database way? or no?
or a way to increase the spawn rate of herbivore foods?
Nope and nope.
dang okay
ive also noticed an issue with /bring - if 2 people on the server have the same word in their name, like a player named Dragon and a player named Dragoneyes, it will always only bring the same one
it will always bring dragoneyes
is there a way around this?
I don’t think so
From what I can tell it’s thinking you’re trying to bring Dragoneyes by typing dragon for short, and it seems like it prioritises the shortcut over someone who has just dragon
So unless dragon adds something to their name you won’t really be able to bring them
Or if the other leaves
not sure if it will work 100% of the time but if you use quotation mark it should help targeting the right player i.e : /bring "dragonhuehue"
@pastel vine
oh alright i hope that works!
Hey I hate to ask for fear of coming off a little dumb. I'm not used to playing any kind of games, but I love dinosaurs and wanted to try the Isle. When I try to play there aren't any servers popping up. Ive tried googling the issue but all of the things they suggested aren't working. I'm worried I'm just not getting it. Not sure if this is the right place to ask either. Last time I bought a game it was a hard copy and you just pressed play.
did you make sure your filter is clear
Yeah all of them except for hide outdated. When I click that maybe 8 do pop up.
including the name and gamemode?
Yeah, they were already blank, I just downloaded earlier today.
hmm that is weird
that right place to ask would be trouble shooting
you should find help their
Okay, thanks!
sure
?
Can admins spawn dinos?
Hello, guys!
How to put on 1 PC 2 + servers?
guys
I tried activate SteamCMD so it could unpack
but when it said me it unpacked itself I dont saw where it is
@merry urchin No.
@potent tree You can do that easily by creating a new folder for the other server, and opening more ports. For example, let’s say you have it set for 7777-7777, you could make the second one a larger number, like 7777-7778 etc.
@merry urchin It’ll be wherever you set it to force install if you did that first
I activated it
it started unpacking
then when I checked the folder
it wasnt there
Ohh sorry you mean steam cmd itself
My bad
So in that case try again?
Find out what folder it’s putting it in
Where exactly are you telling it to unpack?
Question, a few friends and I recently started running a server that's being hosted by PingPerfect. Was wondering if there's a way to set up a script for automatic server restarts like every 8 hours or so. And also is there a way to check chat logs as well specifically which file it would be if there is a way
Just answered my own question bout that last part.
I think there’s like a scheduled event page on the main area somewhere
Chat logs are in the logs file
Named like TheIsle Log or something similar
Anyone have experience running a server on google cloud?
Also is there a way
to bypass using the dedicated steam tool and play while running said server?
Google cloud?
Also there probably is but I don’t really know for sure, I use SteamCMD which does allow this without issue
If your not using the force_install_dir with steamCMD, you should find your games files in your steamCMD folder in steamapps within.
Otherwise where ever you set it.
You can setup "Scheduled Tasks" in your ping perfect game control panel, just under the main IP Head you should see 'Scheduled Tasks' and able to set up reboots as often as you like.
I got only WinRAR file
and there are only rules and smth else in it
but they both require for me to type password
how do you tele in free cam like i keep seeing in vids?
does anyone know if there is a command to teleport to a specific
location on the map
not sure if that exists. You can always go into spectate and tp yourself there
@shut tulip how do you do that?
It used to be as of 2 or so patches ago, but the last time I tried it seemed like the database code for it had changed.
ah ok the n i might wanna ask a dev or someone
M
I wouldn't do that
Devs don't usually like to be bothered. Best person to ask would be StolidSnow0, he probably knows something
oh ok
@quartz scaffold You can teleport in spectator cam by holding down left shift and pressing the \ key
@serene light There is currently no possible way to set people as humans as of right now, @violet marsh is right in the fact that it used to be possible previously but not now.
@weak arch ServerAdmins= and then add the SteamID afterwards, no spaces
@merry urchin Make sure you do have the right file, from something like this I believe:
Downloading SteamCMD
- Create a folder for SteamCMD.
For example
C:\steamcmd - Download SteamCMD for Windows: https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/client/installer/steamcmd.zip
- Extract the contents of the zip to the folder.
Once you have unzipped those I guess you open the one just simply called SteamCMD.exe and it should add all the files and such and then you can use it
how do i make safe logging a thing?
Safe logging is when you wait for the timer to end before you log out
you can change the logout/respawn time in the game.ini config
what do i add to the game.ini to set up the config
ServerRespawnTime=30
ServerLogoutTime=60
@naive onyx When I opened SteamCMD.exe it didn't worked for me because only stuff like rules and other showed up
is there any line to prevent point loss on death in progression server config?
@weak arch Adding the discord link adds a button to the server details so people can click it to join the discord from the server list when they select your server.
@trim jetty I don't think so.
=/ thanks
@trim jetty There is a way you can give progression points though so you could look into that. Basically if you edit their player file, you can change the number in "ProgressionPoints": "0", to let's say "ProgressionPoints": "50", and so on..
I didn't even know prog was still a thing
it is, just no longer supported by the devs
is AI spawns on v3 broken?
What computer is more better to use for the isle
@quartz scaffold From what I understand it is better on dev branch then public atm, but still kinda borken regardless. I would assume its fixed next patch but that's just an assumption. You'll know when its been fixed when they post the patch notes.
@potent panther Probably like an i5 minimum, i9 maximum. i7 in between, since i9 is really expansive xD
You can ask more about what would be good in #401464048610312195 maybe?
what can i add to my bat file to have it restart on crash?
@weak arch I ended up writing a wrapper in golang for this, but this batch file may be enough
@echo off
cls
echo Protecting isle server from crashes...
title Isle Server
:isle
echo (%time%) isle server started.
start /wait C:\Server\Path\TheIsleServer.exe Isle_V3?MaxPlayers=100?ServerName=My_Server_Name?Game=Survival
echo (%time%) WARNING: isle server closed or crashed, restarting in 1 minute.
timeout /t 60
goto isle
oooo nice, good job looter
now could i just replace this as my startup with some tweaking and use it?
or do i have to make a seperate batch?
Nice coding man
I feel like I only have one spawn in my server is there a way to change that?
Nope, that's just the spawnpoints that have been set ingame by devs
YOu may also need to disable crash pops if you have not done so yet. Otherwise the batch file not going to restart the server without you clicking.
For Windows 7 and newer:
- Go to Start. Type gpedit.msc
- Navigate to Computer Configuration->Administrative Templates->Windows Components->Windows Error Reporting
- On the right pane, click on “Prevent display of the user interface for critical errors” and set it to Enabled.
hi im running a small server with a few friends and one of them is haveing a audio issue where he has no ingame sound does anyone know a posible fix ?
@celest breach Better off asking that one in #🔧-legacy-troubleshooting-🔧
i have never gfot a replay figured a server runner may have come by it once or twice
Audio issues are usually to do with the persons device, not the server itself
The batch file works but doesnt automatically restart rather it asks me^CTerminate batch job (Y/N)?
Are you closing it yourself, or crashing?
Does anyone have a link or can tell me how to Install the Dev branch onto Ping Perfect hosting?
In the main panel go to Beta/Legacy Update, then in the dropdown select Development
any one want to play this game so far seems like steam comments are fully showing this game has no like online group up or team play to it just solo run around for hours and just die from no water or food...
;-;
anyone else have any way to turn off familyshare. Have tried a million different ways but none seem to be working.
StolidSnow has tried to help a few times too but its just not working. We are with Citadel servers.
When it was Permanently disabled around may. Was the server settign removed?
Otherwise under "[/script/theisle.igamesession]" it is just;
bFamilySharing=
@little trench
Ive tried that. When we stop the server, enter it into the game ini, save it and then restart the server it deletes the coding.
Coding that stays is this:
bServerFamilySharing=
but even that doesnt stop people getting in using family share
Never mind 😃
Mods answered it for me. Thank you very much guys!
Quick question... What would a person set as the ratio for more ai in the ServerAIRate=
I want it teaming with life on my server. But I want there to be a chance for babies to live... i was not sure if this will change anything as i have messed with it be see little change...
Any help would be great... even a great info link would be super deadly!!! Thanks!
@half granite Currently the Ai spawning options do not work for us server owners at this time ever since the new ai system. So for now this is all automatically done.
Ah... Ok Thats fine then at least i wont do any tweaking till I can lol Thanks!!!
Does anyone know if there is a way to automatic announcements in game? Like how you do the /announce
But it's just automated for certain times. I.E. 5 minutes before you have an automatic restart scheduled?
I don't believe so, not yet at least. Someone could prove me wrong though.
Alrighty, thanks for the response though 👍
Does anyone know what the highest player count you can put on a server is? I am guessing it would have to be resource dependent. Like depending on your hardware? I would love to see a full 500 player v3 map server omg that would be amazing.
Ehh, used to be 125 unless it has changed.
<@&401466542140817419>
Hello!
In the CIS community the problem with large-scale crash the server arose.
Pangaea, Tapkin, Mezozoi, Jurassic World, One in the Box.
All servers stand at the campaign PingPerfect.
We ask to deal with crash.
Whether somehow developers can put protection on a game?
Thank you!
Let see if it crashes at 500 players
I set the count to 500 and it reverted to 244... Answer found lol
BUT HOLD ON.... I see 500 slots on my server Oh Boy!!!! lol
The amount of lag 500 players would create hurts my brain
Rather, it hurts it but it wouldn't register for me except in a jittery mess 10 seconds later
i had it up and running for for 5 hours and it crashed... lol well thats that!
Hey Everyone, I just started up Jurassic Isle. Its on a huge 40 core Xeon, 196gb Ram, 6TB SSD infrastructure with super high AI and a 200 player limit. Can you all hammer it and see how well she stands up??? Come play! Im standing up the Discord chanel now so its not completely done yet, but should be enough to have some good convo!
oh and last but not least... 1gb synchronous fiber!
well you got me beat
i just have 16 dedicated cores and 32 gigs ram running mine... i feel like a small fishnow
ALSO... how do you have super high ai???? I wanna know your secret!
Yeah on Thenyaw for sure... but V3 I can only go as a herby... the food is just sparse as a carno
Hey come join Rodinia on Dev Branch anyone who gets the chance. Atm it has 30 slots, been trying to figure why I got a huge random spike of Ram usage yesterday with only 10 people lol. Curious on how well it will do with some more people, could have been the high ai? The server has a discord as well if anyone cares
Jurassic Isle is running amazing. I spawn 9999 AI and 20 per player in a 100meter area. Never starve!!!! Need more peeps now. Had 6 people with over 100 AI and the server was at 1% haha. Lets get some HUGE amounts of people on!
@merry urchin you sure? that isn't configurable atm
Okay this is kind of a legal/ethics question. But are server owners allowed to profit themselves off donations made for things isle related? I would assume there's at least some level of copyright that is involved since server owners don't own any of the rights to the isle or the contents inside of it.
Hello! A lot of servers suffer from crashes and ddos attacks. Please, close the information about ip servers! Players and server owners suffer. Impossible :)
@shy bison Many server owners ask for donations to help keep their server bills paid for. You can do this with any server/game.
@shy bison
Usually they are not profiting, that would imply they get money for themselves.
We have donations up in our server but with that said we have not locked dinos up behind it.
Many people do that though so people help donate to keep the sever going all money should be going towards keeping the server maintained. They are not that cheep to run if you have a high player count and though a host provider.
@queen sand @sonic horizon Those are situations that I understand and that are reasonable, I more so meant if someone was using money from donation for their own personal spending aside from server upkeep
@shy bison Yes. Many do. But would be a very rude thing to do.
so do i switch back to stable branch now with this update or keep my server on dev?
Brennen11B, you don't need to change anything. The update will do it.
What's the current number for the stable branch?
https://steamcommunity.com/app/376210/discussions/14/1744483505484590924/
can anyone help me with this?
The growth timers and stats of the dinos need to be changed in the game code, its not a server setting, so you will never be able to change it, only if they release a new dev kit @worthy violet
@shy bison Both versions are merged together from now on
👍
Anyone know what colors correspond to what in the new character options for dinosaur injections? I.E.
"SkinPaletteSection1": 63,
"SkinPaletteSection2": 19,
"SkinPaletteSection3": 32,
"SkinPaletteSection4": 1,
"SkinPaletteSection5": 24,
"SkinPaletteSection6": 0,
"SkinPaletteVariation": "4.0"
I'm aware of what SkinPaletteVariation represents and I would assume the others go in order for color selection, but not sure what the numbers correspond to since some of the numbers don't line up with the place of it numerically in the grid. I.E. "SkinPaletteSection2": 19 but the color doesn't line up with being 19 anywhere in the palette
How would one change to the V3 map?
I'm not entirely sure what to do for it.
does anyone have the map path for V3? this is what i have currently - /Game/TheIsle/Maps/Thenyaw_Island/Thenyaw_Island
@white kite ?
i could really use help with this
because i cant even find a location of the maps in the folders in my server or my computer....
@pastel vine i have very limited knowledge on server hostinf
oh darn.....
my server is currently off and i have no idea for this one
@naive onyx ?
nvm i think i figured it out
if anyone else gets stuck on this issue, the map path for V3 is - /Game/TheIsle/Maps/Landscape3/Isle_V3
Anyone know about server hosting? https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1231855950 this guide says put the values at 9999, wont that break the dino?
the 9999 will automatically get scaled down to the dinosaure's max value @quick flame
so nothing will break, that is just to make sure you get a dino with full health/hunger/thirst. Since the max value change for each dinosaure, putting 9999 is a sure way to get everything maxed out.
Ok thanks for that!
Didnt want to break the dino's and have super OP ones on the server.
Cleared that up in the guide now, knew I missed something xD
how do you disable dinosaurs on GTX?
Hi! Please remove information about the server IP in the game! Now undergoing a DDoS attack and we, server owners and players suffer from this.
Hello dear developers! Servers are very susceptible to DDoS attacks, we ask you to close the information about the IP and ports of servers. I hope you already take.
All Russian servers are under ddos
The isle is felled with bots
Do something please
<@&401466542140817419>
@signal sedge that is impossible, the only solution is for the hosting provider to try and filter attacks at the network level
@merry urchin We ask that people take server ads to the LFG section of The Isle's Steam Forums
anyone else having issue with Ai spawns on V3? i turned up my AI amount to 300 and spawn rate to 25.0, but none seem to be spawning
Just thought I would leave this here, in looters coding, so it doesn't ask you for a promt when server crashes or closes, add | set /P "=" to the end where Survival is. And if you want the log to still pop up, before the | set /P "=" just add -log
So having issues with current dino grow rates. Someone went from Juvi to Full Adult in 1 hour.
@quick flame what dino were they
Allo
Allo Hatch: 30 min
Allo Juvie: 60 min
Allo Adult: 120 min
it takes 60 min to get to young adult, 120 min to full aduly etc
you can check the growth timers
Is it at all possible to get a list of the hex codes for all the colors available on skin creation, or does anyone know how to go about getting them?
you'd have to do it manually by going through each color in the actual skin select, putting it on your dino, then checking the player file for the SkinPallette
Has the lightning bolts already entered?
already know the command?
that's only available for devs @stable citrus
oh ok thanks @white kite
I have this crash now many times and speak with few pps about it. Can anyone tell me what this clearly is? Its annoying. Sometimes after 2-5 hours... sometimes 2-3 times in 20 min. ty!

Sorry @shy ether I'll take them to the correct place.
Hey everyone, im running Thenyaw (survival) and have played with changing players spawned characters a few times and it seems to work. I would like to do a spino on there for promotion but i am unable to figure out how to spawn someone as the spino. Can anyone help? I tried editing the CharacterClass to be SpinoAdultS but that doenst seem to work 😦 pardon if this is a dumb/repetative question. Just really getting my feet wet.
@dusky hearth Worked perfectly... Thank you!
@dusky hearth Can you do that with Hypo's as well. Never seen one
No and i recommend to try it „NOT“. Devs don’t wanna like it to see.
roger that
Sometimes on the officials servers you can see a dev making party with a Hypo 😆
You know, i love this game, but sometimes i wonder if they should just do official servers. This spreads the player base out a lot. I have starved to death so many times that I hate those other server because of their low spawn caps for AI, but official servers could pick that up and really make it a fun/community experience. Where you HAVE to interact to survive
and by "This spreads the player base out a lot" i mean allowing public run servers
I mean if you want official servers go play on them. Since dev was removed they're nearly always full
but that is also a problem, i like official servers but most of the time i cannot join because of that
@violet marsh Like @tardy shell eluded to, i was talking about maybe upping the amount of official servers and increasing the max of players on them PLUS removing personal servers. If i want to play on an official server, I will.
What is the V3 Map called? Is it just V3? map_V3, what? How do you properly spell it so that I could switch to the V3 map?
just Isle_V3 should work fine
Not allowing public run servers would mean that literally everyone had to go to official servers, further decreasing your chance of getting into one. Public run servers are the only thing giving you a chance to get into official servers and having stable performance doing so. Even if the devs opened another 10 servers in willing to bet they'd all be full day and night if public servers weren't allowed
my ai dissapears really fast is there a config for the settings?
Hey it's me again, is there a command line to disable adult rex and giga for game.ini? I ask this because, my host doesn't have the option to disable them the easy way. -sighs-
[/script/theisle.igamemode]
DisabledDinosaurs="TRex"
DisabledDinosaurs="Austro"
for example
Thank you @weak arch
No worries glad i can help if you need help with the config its on the wiki
for game ini config options really useful honestly
Isle server settings and configuration are controlled by several files and have subsections the value must be entered under. There are several options available on the startup command line.
How to fix a bug with bots?(At one point appear)
Improves me if it is not so. But currently there is no way.
Hi, server support rcon ? or battleye ?
config options "bServerNameTags? work ? start server reset this param
@rapid iron No current way to change how and where AI spawn
@upper talon rcon/battleye has been removed a while back. setting nametags to true works, and I believe setting it to false also works if I'm not mistaken, if not then it's probably default to true and not able to change.
If it does work I'm not sure why it gets removed, if not then its most likely not editable rn

Hello, I am trying very desperatly to get the lag/ping down on our server. We have tried many many many different things with no avail. We are on V3 and set the ai to low and despawn timers to default but our ping still sky rockets and stays at 1000. Does anyone have anything to reduce lag or ping on V3?
AI settings don't currently work at this time, are you hosting through dedicated or a server host?
Server host
Well I've been hearing stuff about v3 being a bit weird with ping
would it be possible for me to DM a developer to discuss something server related privately? I don't want to just DM a dev randomly out of the blue though so I figured I should ask here about it first to be safe.
We have tried a tons of fixes but none seems to impact ping at all. even with only 50-60 players online it is still in the 700-900 range
Yeah, I don't think there's a whole lot you can do really, from what I've been hearing v3 seems to be making people's servers have high ping for some reason
@delicate nexus I suppose it depends on what it is and which dev knows more about the servers
Hello. Since i made ServerDayLength=40 ( or the last update ) i dont got dynamic weather no rain or strom. can someone gimme a hint ?
Change it back to default, 60 iirc, changing server day length as far as I know seems to be bugged/doesn't work really
it is 100% a matter that only a dev can help me with. I'd rather not share too many details here just because it's kind of a sensitive matter. But at the same time I don't want to randomly DM a dev about it personally cause I'm sure they're busy haha
okay what does bServerDynamicTimeOfDay=0
The timeofday settings and stuff don't change anything rn, but I think 0 means it doesn't change
yeah my players want a longer daytime but now the weather wont change
thank you anyways ill try to see if anyone posts anything else.
Well they either need it to be changed back to default for weather and just have someone around to change it to day again or have no weather
has it extended the amount of time day and night lasts for?
Alrighty @leaden topaz
the day is longer yes
okay i will chnage it to 30 and lets see. can you tell me what bServerDynamicTimeOfDay does ?
It used to set it so day/night cycle doesn't change, so it would stay day, but it no longer works
Np
How can I make the respawn option in my private server countdown quicker?
[/Script/TheIsle.IGameSession]
ServerRespawnTime=15
@crystal trail make sure that second line goes under that first line somewhere, and set the time to whatever you want in seconds
No, sorry, it goes in your game.ini config file
oh jeez
Ok, so first you have to go to where all of the files for your server are located. You'll see 3 folders labled Engine, steamapps, and then TheIsle. From there, you'll go through TheIsle/Saved/Config/WindowsServer ~ and from there you'll see a Game.ini
Thanks
Mhm, have any more problems feel free to tag
Thank you
is giga back for players yet on surivival?
no
thank you. was curious as ive been asked for an ETA
The MOTD for my server is not showing up upon joining. Is there an argument that I can apply upon startup?
Have you got it in the Saved folder and does it have stuff written in it?
Yes its in Saved and it has things written in it.
did you restart the server after saving the stuff written in it?
A few times, yes. Is there a particular syntax to it? I wrote it in a single line.
try doing paragraphs(?) like, make it fit so you can read it all without having to scroll right
Hello its me again. any one having issues with ai spawning in groups of 15+
if so how did you fix it?
rats. another question is how do you get lag/ping down? my server has had some really crazy ping like 1000+. ive been restarting the server every 8-10 hours to help but its not better
Where is your server hosted do you know? Or are you hosting the server from a personal machine
anyone wanna form a raptor party?
@violet marsh its from london.
Alright and where are you located?
im in japan but most ly players are from europe. so they shouldnt have bad ping. but they do
Hm, which host are you using?
um im not sure. i dont run it i just help find solutions. I think its gtx?
Well the ping could depend a lot on the provider as well as what specs the server is running on. There's a lot of factors that influence a server's performance, but for ping it's usually something with connections.
@dreamy mango #401464048610312195
You go into the server's database and manually change someone to be a progression dinosaur
Ok and what do i type in there?
Especially when they should turn out male
I know about the steam 64 ID
Thank you very much❤️
Right so
This has everything in it
is anyone aware what AI setting I should change to make AI spawns more reliable?
currently AI spawn rate is at 1.0
AI max is 1500 up from 100 (default)
Early on I was having a really good density https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/537808390655574016/539101562513915910/unknown.png
and sometimes AI would just be stacking on one another https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/537808390655574016/539088685371490304/unknown.png
I did change AI spawn from 2.0 to 5.0 to 10.0 and even 20.0 but it becomes worse. Am i missing some sort of logic behind any of this?
<@&401466542140817419> Can anyone assist me with this one, please.
Im having that same issue. ^^
AI spawning is kinda buggy atm
I doubt a server setting can fix it as they form these weird clumps on official servers too
ughh....REVERT?
81 player server, 2 AI spawned, @hoary cave Is this normal AI behavior?
I cleared the AI commands in game.ini to take on their default values, as seen in this picture^
what's the recommended specs to host a server?
8gb of ram, atleast an E3-1230v6, if you want 100 players
Used to struggle a bit beyond 80 players on an E3-1270 back when the redwoods map was released. Hope that's changed a bit
Is there any way to change the day and night time length?
There is kinda? From what I’ve heard though it breaks weather so, either that or it just doesn’t work, I never tried recently but have when the new sky and stuff first came and it did nothing.
@worthy violet Currently here is my settings. No issues. Last night while playing a dev told me that the clumping and bad spawns only happen after an admin teleports someone. I dont do any of that junk, i just like to play fair and i never have a problem. Jump on mine to get an idea. Jurassic Isle: Max AI-No Rules and see how you like it. Here is my settings in game.ini.
ServerAIMax=9999
ServerAIRate=30.0
keep in mind for that AIMax, i have 40 core Xeon, 196GB RAM, and 6TB of RAID'd SSD's at my servers disposal. Mileage may vary lol.
@merry urchin are you running this on a virtual machine or is it legit hardware?
again guys, there are no customization settings for the AI currently, your values change nothing
@merry urchin as far as the specs go, currently core speed > core count as the server is only utilizing the game thread (1 core)
A question am i allowed to post the server here? to maybe attract over some players or is it forbitten though :3?
or is it allowed to post stuff like that to off topic or not at all?
@merry nacelle all advertisement for a server has to be made here
@worthy violet @eternal breach Its a Server 2016 VM on full VMware infrstructure with that hardware. It has 8 cores and 32GB of ram devoted but balooning enabled so it can utilize as much as it wants. The core speed is 2.8Ghz on all 8 cores. I definitely see a difference in settings at least on my server Looter. At least it feals as such. If you jump on my server, you instantly have AI on you. No other server i have gotten on does this. I would welcome someone like yourself to check it out and i can give you access to it if you would like to hook up.
AI distribution depends on the amount of players in the session and a couple other factors, but those AI settings in the ini were for an older system that was removed in March of 2018
I'm going to clean up our server setting stuff during the recode, and get some documentation put together for it, it's pretty confusing what still works and doesn't work settings wise
Well i know you probably get this a lot, but i am a big fan of the game and your work, so if ther is anything i can do to support server wise, i would love to host an official server or something
is the teleporting thing legit though @eternal breach?
mine definately dont clump
no, not that i am aware of, the clumped spawning issue isn't related to teleporting characters
OK. i havent seen that on my server, but again the worst i have done is make myself a spino for fun
removed those two lines and restarted. Thanks @eternal breach!
Guys what is the best server host?
Just Isle_V3 should work as well
So is it configured to automatically use the path to that map with just Isle_V3 ? That wasnt a thing before was it?
it's always been a thing but on certain server configurations its had trouble working in the past, I've yet to run into that issue on any of our servers
Huh. I've never been able to test it as we use PingPerfect, and as far as I'm aware they just use the full path
I'm on pingperfect, where can I disable and enable the gamemode/dinosaurs/set players to admin
@spark jackal You'd look for where you can access the game.ini of the server. Not sure where it'd be kept; last time I used PingPerfect, it was a completely garbage service in my experience.
I figured it out. Thanks though lol.
I got a question still, as an admin how would I create announcements in the server, teleport players/myself, or fly (if thats possible.)
to move faster right click the mouse
The Isle was just patched, how can I make sure my server is up to date?
Nvm I got it
@fair wind We don't permit advertising servers or other discords in here. IF you would like to advertise a server, we have a LFG section on the Steam forums for that.
alright, sorry!
👍
Hello everyone, i set dynamicdaylight to 0 and daytime length to 0, will that ensure always daylight?
like this
bServerDynamicTimeOfDay=0
ServerDayLength=0
take it those dont work either. still getting dark
Any of the mods know about ping perfect? Having an issue with a certain aspect of it.
@worthy violet do you know what CPU the server has, and how much load it is under?
Only wanna say very good work from the entire dev team! Server runs now extremely fine and the AI is working! Ty!
And looter... true.. . We have one server i must switch because the cpu. If the cpu has too much load crash the AI also.
@eternal breach FX 6300 OC at 5GHz, server load is 25% of the cpu
@dusky hearth @worthy violet Okay interesting, since the patch all of the official servers no longer experience the AI breaking down, from what I was able to gather it happened when the amount of characters in the session exceeded what the server could support, after a certain point the AI "brain" simply stops running normally, as well as the spawn system in engine
I was hopping around some other large servers with 150 players and the issue was still present, but I am not sure what we can do about that pre-recode
The CPU your running should be more than enough
yeah I was thinking the same, that it should be enough since I'm only using it for the server and nothing else
I will send you a log file that may help give me some more information on what happens
Can the server run on linux?
not anymore due to licensing issues since last year
back then the performance on linux was also around 3 times worse
but I think epic games fixed that issue
I have running 2 Thenyaw with 100 ppl. When both full only one of them has AI problems. This server is then fully utilized and also has the ping 0 problem. AI crashs then. Our 150 V3 works fine I think. Sometimes it shows Ping 0 but AI is working.
Try putting one server on Core 1, one server on Core 2 with Set Process Affinity in task manager
leave Core 0 for the OS
Many thanks. I try this tomorrow.
Is anyone else having trouble with Ai spawning still?
Is there any way to deal with ’fake’ servers/servers that steal other servers’ names to gain profit? or can we only say to our userbase that it is not our server and hope they dont go there?
Can anyone shoot me the entry into game.ini to make it daylight longer than night? I have mine set like the below, but i am not sure its working and haven't had the time to just camp in there yet.
ServerStartingTime=1350
bServerDynamicTimeOfDay=1
ServerDayLength=180
How would I go about doing raffles on discord for apexes?
I find that having a discord channel that makes people write the numbers in order a good start, then using a randomiser to select a random number of the first and last number the more familiar way to go
why i cant use my mods
Mods are not supported currently, they will be in the future once they fix stuff on that front
I tried looking through the pinned and some of the posts but couldn't find an answer for this.
I know it is possible to add your discord invite link to a server as I've seen it on others, however when I tried to do it through Nitrado it created the line below in the Game.ini file
ServerDiscord=https:
Even when I try to add in the rest for the invite link, nothing shows up and after a server restart it just goes back to the above line without.
Example. Try this in the game.in: ServerDiscord=RDCg2QP @vital grotto
without „https://discord..“
Like just the numbers/letters after discord.gg?
AHA! Worked great, had forgotten to 'save' changes to the general settings first so it wasn't showing up but after I fixed that, no issues. Thank you so much 😃
Can anyone shoot me the entry into game.ini to make it daylight longer than night? I have mine set like the below, but i am not sure its working. Also if you could tell me how to keep a body around for longer than server default that would be amazing as well!
ServerStartingTime=1350
bServerDynamicTimeOfDay=1
ServerDayLength=180
Thanks!
Also if anyone has nailed down pregression overrides or has a good guide on it, that would be nice too!
Those settings as far as I’m aware don’t really work well if it all, plus before when they did work it was setup so both day and night lasted the same. Since the new sky and weather update was added, all control of this was lost. As for prog overrides, ProgressionOverrides=(Row="Dino",Points=0) Server dead body time is either bServerDeadBodyTime= or just ServerDeadBodyTime= can’t guarantee that’ll work or not though @merry urchin
Thanks Stolid, Im aware that The Bio Isle server has 2x day and .5 night, so there has to be some way 😦
@naive onyx How do the points work for the progression overrides? Lets use this as an example. I deleted my char, then relogged in and this didnt have any effect on my spawned dino... just want to make sure its what im expecting.
ProgressionOverrides=(Row="TRexSubAdult",Points=240)
i was guessing that it was you would spawn in as a subadult rex but the points i dont understand. It did nothing when i tested it.
The points are how many points the Dino you enter will cost when progressing to it
I’m not sure how exactly they have the day/night cycle working like that, playing around with the day length number might help but I’m not too sure on that one
Are any other servers having trouble with the A.I. NOT spawning? We've gone two days and seen TWO A.I. Restarted the server and still nothing
I'm not to sure where to ask this, and if it's not allowed I will gladly delete the comment.
How does one look into hosting/having a server?
I'm open to dms for answers so as to not spam the chat.
@charred nacelle I followed these guides and pieced it together. Wasnt hard at all!
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1502947359
http://playground-au.tk/howto-the-isle-dedicated-server/
@merry urchin thank you!
@twilit geyser there’s your guide lol! i stand corrected
yeah i saw it 😃
anyone know what it means when the log is stating that the MAtch State Changed from WaitingToStart to InProgress and seems stuck?
Seems stuck, do you mean nothing else appears? If so then the server is probably running, though I can't say for sure since I dont selfhost
yeah nothing else is logging after that
I'm hosting it on same computer that I am actually running client on
and I also notice if I ever run this and try to launch the isle and search for servers, it won't authenticate to steam in the isle
I believe this is Unreal Engine running into an error but don't know
any servers active if so please tell me the name x3
@twilit geyser sorry gott busy with stuff, so Steam only allows you to connect to steam servers and the like one time per PC and per account or something similiar. So, you can't host the server normally on your PC and then attempt to play the game at the same time. You'll have to set up a virtual dedicated server if I'm not mistaken, or use a second PC or computer that can handle running the server, and only then will you be able to connect to it from your own machine. Something like that
ah I see I believe you are right, in a way but you can def host server and play on same machine in diffferent games. I actually host and play rust on same computer
I believe I heard something about the way the ports are used overlap or something
but regardless it's really hard to tell by the logs what is wrong :0
You have port forwarding and all that enabled correctly? If so I can hop on the game while you have it running to see if I can see the server
Yeah it's not showing up, I believe I have the port forwards correctly, is there a way to manually connect to an ip address in the isle? like through a command line so I can test
I think my port forwarding is probably fine but I believe something is going wrong with my game server starting up
you can but like I said I think it's failing to actually start, It's just called Wompa
you won't see it probs, but thanks 4 help
No I can see it
Yeah, I'll DM you a pic since discord deems it explicit
god damn, yeah I guess it is working, thanks for all your help dude! so helpful! @violet marsh , what a guy
I try 👌
Anyone else have a message "Failure to connect to steam" for the server?
@jade whale make sure you dont have steam running while trying to run the server
Does anyone know how to allocate more ram to a server if you have a dedicated server being hosted by pingperfect?
You should be able to login into "My Account" off their website, go to the 'services' Tab up the top, click on your game server you want to change.
Down the left side you'll see Actions "Upgrade/Downgrade Options" Should fine what you want in there.
Otherwise talk to their support to upgrade your server..
how do I hosy one
