Excuse me, I'm trying to recover my account. I lost the 2FA authenticator and backup codes due to my Fedora installation corrupting the files. Tried contacting support, but I get no answers

[short apex]

The ticket system is the only viable way it takes upwards to a month month 1/2 rn

[opaque wasp]

I hope they answer soon. I sent the ticket over a week ago and I've yet to recieve an answer

[short apex]

Well if you reread my msg the wait time is normally over a month

[opaque wasp]

Yeah, I read it. Sorry if I sounded rude or desperate

[short apex]

It's fine just be patient they will get to you for now beef your security on accounts you still have

Anyone else getting 500 errors when submitting a bug? This is my client.log:

2026-04-13 21:21:17.5688|WARN||Submission failed: 500 - Internal Server Error

[short apex]

Can you submit through the website it might be a backend error

[plush plaza]

The website doesn't have the Allow Response checkbox.

[short apex]

Yeah there's no need for it on the website

[plush plaza]

...yes there is?

You can't give permission without an option to give permission.

[short apex]

I don't think there's a reason for it because they don't respond on the website ones you could add it to the suggestions site though

[plush plaza]

It's not a suggestion, it's a bug report.

Those don't appear in the suggestions page.

[short apex]

The suggestion is for the permission checkbox

[sharp grotto]

yo i wanted to ask is there a way to make like the free cam while in my survival world or it should be creative?

Yes.

[granite sparrow]

Hello there 👋

I have a good mesh of concepts in mind for the game/a mod and I would like to share them to the devs and community.
Most could likely fall under the "Experiences" branch of the ongoing modding contest but I don't feel like modding them myself.
A good part of it is already written down but I want to extend on it with concept art, mood boards and such.

The feature requests of the website would be a good place but it would overlap with existing entries and it doesn't allow for images and attachments.
Any pointer to where it would best fit ?

[pseudo granite]

Anyone know how to fix a broken universe file for a manual server? I tried updating my server I've had since release to Update 4, but the server will either not run, or not load any of the existing assets. The chunks and blocks are there, but they're all invisible. Any help would mean the world, my group worked REALLY hard on that world.

[fair gulch]

omg, I built a way one deep in water and changed my mind. Fixing the water is horrible and tedious. Any one know a shortcut other than build a bridge above water level and dumping and collecting bucket after bucket?

I would provide a pic but it isn't allowed. 🤷🏻‍♀️

[fair gulch]

and even that doesn't work. 🙁 I want to keep that spot but it looks so ugly with all those lines in it

[hasty verge]

You need to put blocks of dirt under the spot where the water is missing and stop one block below the surface and then pour a bucket of water over the top of the dirt. That will fill in the divot. It's a pain in the butt

[gentle perch]

I don't know where to ask this but my account was compormised and my email was changed

How do I exactly go about getting my account back

[short apex]

https://support.hytale.com/hc/en-us/requests/new use the account support flag unfortunately the ticket times aren't amazing but it's the only route rn

[gentle perch]

Alright thanks

It just sucks, I had a bunch of other accounts stolen too by some idiot

Stupid companies and their data breaches

It didn't log me out of the launcher somehow, but I can't change my password through there

[short apex]

yeah its really bad when u lose a account from a unrelated companies failures

[fair gulch]

thanks. I had planned top build a house out there and there was quite a way towards the platform for the house. I think I just move lol

[stable pecan]

Hey y'all anyone have any tips or material for learning particles for mod vfx

[kind agate]

Quick question I’m currently thinking of canceling my Bisect subscription cuz me and my friends don’t play as much and don’t want to keep paying but don’t want to lose my world and items since it says it will delete the server once my renewal date happens. How would I switch the data over to regular hytale I’ve downloaded the world and universe files

[chilly dagger]

There a good texture pack making guide? I want to know the proper format to have and learn what other things I can do

[brittle talon]

Hi, can someone help me? The website sends me the code, but it says it's invalid. What do I do? I bought the game for my cousin and he can't log in. Please help!

[rough acorn]

The code has a semi-short lifetime during which it is valid - if you gave him the game, make sure that it's hooked up to his email so he can do it himself when he logs in.

[brittle talon]

Yes, it's in his email.

[rough acorn]

He should have a button near the login allowing him to request a new code - have him try that, I guess.

[paper owl]

Hi Does anybody know how long it takes to farm essences ? Im currently creating a guild plugin and to upgrade the guild it requires items. Im trying to figure oout how many of those essences should be requried for each level

[brittle talon]

is invalid

[rough acorn]

Essences are very cheap to farm, especially if you've got something to save it up for.

Gonna depend on farm size, of course, but it's pretty easy to just get rich quick.

At least, that's Essence of Life. The other essences are all far less easy. Void is semi-common, fire is next, ice is kinda rare, and water is has like a 0.5% drop chance from fish traps or something, making it by far the rarest essence.

[brittle talon]

Leave it alone, it worked.

[paper owl]

Oh really interesting!

So i was thinking 50 essence of Ice, Void, Fire and Life and maybe 1 water if it is that rare ?

[rough acorn]

It's gonna depend a lot on the mentality of the guild members and stuff. I'd use Greater Essence of Life in any case.

But for plugin design, I'd also consider making the exact prices configurable by a server admin.

That's gonna be really hard to make an educated guess on otherwise.

[paper owl]

Yea its configurable, just trying to set the default values So you would say Greate Life essences too

[rough acorn]

Still, assuming established players with vanilla resources, that water essence is going to be harder to get than 50 of any other.

[paper owl]

Thats perfect! It shouldnt be that easy to upgrade the guild. But awesome really helpful information!

How rare is the greater life essence ?

[rough acorn]

Pretty easy.

I've made a farm with 40 of each crop (all eternal seeds), and if I do a full harvest, I get like 50-60 of them.

[paper owl]

Oh ok! Thank you very much for the insights

[lean sleet]

I made a Golem with Min/Max Scale: 2. But due to its size, I can't block half of it's attacks!! Should I change how Shields/Swords block? Or is there an adjustment I can make to the NPC's?

[short apex]

why would u make it so small

[lean sleet]

That... isn't small. That makes it double the size of a normal golem. Regular sized golems are 1.05 max.

[short apex]

oh u went up my bad

you prob need to slow its attacks if u cant block or lower its range

[lean sleet]

It seems it may have just broke at some point. Deleted the Golem, made a new duplicate, and have been doing small edits at a time. I haven't been able to reproduce the issue.

[short apex]

thats interesting but good to know

[fickle glacier]

Do I see it right, that the validate option in the Launcher is quite useless? Because its only saying files are corrupt? But Would not re-download said files? And Instead saying I should uninstall the whole game and reinstall?

I had installed the German Language Support Mod, but it was not working good enough, because not translated UI Buttons or Texts etc. turned into things like "Ui.Button.MainMenu" etc.

I tried to Validate the Game files, which, I also had issue to find in the first place, since I was confused, its hidden inside the uninstall option.

Validation just giving me this:

"Game file validation failed
At least one game file is missing or corrupted. Please uninstall the game via the settings and reinstall to fix this issue.

validation error: ~57.23 KiB wound 144.02 KiB into Client/Data/Shared/Language/en-US/client.lang"

I mean, isn't that was validate game files is made for? Is it different then Steam's Validate option?
Forced to re-download GB's to fix an Issue about a corrupted 57 KiB File, looks like really bad game development.
Especially when your Connection isn't the best. Mine is okay. I can reinstall it within 10-15 Minutes, but still I don't get this.

[short apex]

It's corrupted because the mod you used most likely and it didn't just reinstall the files because it's 1 install validation just sees if you need to fix something or not

[lean shadow]

im not sure if its always like that but you can definitely suggest a feedback for them, i agree the validation should fix the issue without redownloading the entire game

[tribal moth]

Hello everyone! just wanted to ask if there are any mods that features modern armor? like kevlars and what not? I saw the "Modern Armor" mod in Curseforge but i believe it's no longer being updated. Thank you in advance!

[fickle glacier]

I know why the file is corrupted, and I also know why the corrupted file isn't being reinstalled—but that wasn't my point. Your answer basically confirms exactly what I had already suspected/asked, but it reads as if you were explaining it to me: The validation is only included to show people that a file is corrupted, and instead of fixing the problem and downloading the file in question again … their solution is to reinstall the entire game, what is a bit odd for a 50 KiB File.

I’m not a game developer myself, just a modder and a Blender newbie. But since I know from Steam, GOG, Rockstar, etc., that this is possible for a validation feature, I know its possible. On the other hand, I don’t know which engine they’re using, and whether such a feature isn’t possible for that reason. That’s something they’d have to answer...

[fickle glacier]

Is there a specific feedback channel or form for this? And yes, the first time it was just confusing, since I hadn’t expected the validation to take place inside the uninstallation menu, nor that this validation wouldn’t check for missing or corrupted files, as was the case with other platforms. Ultimately, it’s no big deal to download the program again, at least for me… but I know there are people with much slower internet connections...

[lean shadow]

There is. https://hytale.com/suggestions

The only downside is people would have to vote for it..

[fickle glacier]

I see, I don't think its that important then. I mean stuff like Boats, or Fishing etc. are more important Requests ^^

[lean shadow]

Haha yeah but feedback is really important, even if its a "negative" one, i also agree with you that it can be quite confusing to validate your files and it doesnt fix itself

[fickle glacier]

Right, makes sense 😄

[urban agate]

Hello, i am the only one that have some model who bug (a lot of cube dont appear sudenly) ? It seem to happen when i put a lot of attachment to a model in game (on blockbench the model is fine)

and i put the eyes on in all the cube in blockbench of course

[paper owl]

Since the newest update i cant download the launcher properly anymore. Whenever i download the launcher on my mac and open it it downloads something and then i cant open the launcher again any diea how to fix it ?

[frigid marsh]

Hi!

World is always crushing when one of players joining - IllegalArgumentException: Scale must be greater than 0

How can I fix this?

[ruby apex]

We gonna need a bit more of context

[frigid marsh]

World crashes with IllegalArgumentException: Scale must be greater than 0 when loading entities with Scale=0
When a player joins and the server loads chunks containing entities that have Scale=0 in their model component data, Model.createScaledModel() throws IllegalArgumentException, which kills the world thread. All players get disconnected and the world cannot be reloaded without a server restart — but it just crashes again on the next load attempt.

[ruby apex]

Entities cant have a scale of 0

[ruby apex]

i guess you're tryng to mod something

[frigid marsh]

We had the RPGMobs mod (by Frotty27) installed and everything was working fine until yesterday. We removed the mod, but the NPC entities it created are still saved in the world chunk data with Scale=0 in their model component. Now whenever a player loads a chunk containing one of these leftover entities, Model.createScaledModel() throws IllegalArgumentException: Scale must be greater than 0 and crashes the entire world thread, disconnecting all players.
The problem is these entities are spread across hundreds of region files, so manually cleaning them up isn't really feasible. Is there any way to either:

Remove all entities of a specific type/mod from world data?
Or have the server skip/clamp invalid scale values instead of crashing the whole world?

[ruby apex]

uh i see

[plush plaza]

In the pre-release, there are these two options:

• Allow Friends to Join
• Allow Discord Friends to Join
  The first mentions in its description "when you are hosting" and the latter does not. Does that mean Discord Friends would bypass the "when you are hosting" or is it just worded poorly?

[fair gulch]

heya, did someone else expirience that for the Tier 7 Upgrade of the Farmer Workbench, that Redwood Log does not count as Redwood Log?

[short apex]

Fixed next update

[fair gulch]

So it's a known bug?

[short apex]

They accidentally messed up the I'd of redwoods

[fair gulch]

do other woods like Maple count?

[short apex]

Yeah

So you can wait for update 5 or just use another of the type

[fair gulch]

alright, thanks

[regal flame]

hello guys!! How i re-connect for get the Discord Friends List in my hytale? i try and try, but no apear, have a video-tutorial for get this? kk

[rough acorn]

That's only on pre-release for now, and only if your friends are also on pre-release.

[tribal moth]

Hello everyone! just wanted to ask if there are any mods that features modern armor? like kevlars and what not? I saw the "Modern Armor" mod in Curseforge but i believe it's no longer being updated. Thank you in advance!

[short apex]

Not that I'm aware honestly searching curseforge for mods is the most reliable way to find mods

[rough acorn]

Did you just literally copy/paste your identical question from yesterday?

[white jackal]

Hey, I found some White Clay underground near a river. Is there any way to turn it into White Clay - Smooth?

[short apex]

Try the builders workbench

[white jackal]

There I can only turn it into uncolored Clay Brick

[short apex]

Apparently according to Google it's the furniture workbench

Though the recipe seems to be 2 clay and white petals not white clay

[white jackal]

Maybe there is no recipe yet, then I will just bench the white clay and look for regular one

Thanks

[short apex]

Yw hopefully more recipes are in the works

[lean sleet]

Running into a major issue: I've given a Golem that I made the ability to deal Ice Damage. Swapped Physical for Ice in the NPC's Role File.

"Swing_Left_Damage": {
"Interactions": [
{
"Parent": "Golem_Crystal_Swing_Left_Damage",
"DamageCalculator": {
"Type": "Absolute",
"BaseDamage": {
"Ice": 20
},
"RandomPercentageModifier": 0.1
},
"DamageEffects": {
"Knockback": {
"Force": -10
}
}
}
]
},

For some reason any damage type aside from Physical Cannot be blocked. Not sure what's going on.

[dusk cape]

Modify it so that it continues to deal physical damage and give it the cold hit characteristic.

[lean sleet]

I figured it out. I can't block Damage Types not listed in the Weapon_Sword_Secondary_Guard file, in these two sections:
 
"AngledWielding": {
    "Angle": 0,
    "AngleDistance": 90,
    "DamageModifiers": {
      "Physical": 0,
      "Projectile": 0,
      "Poison": 0
    },
    "KnockbackModifiers": {
      "Physical": 0.25,
      "Projectile": 0.25
    }
  },
 
I have to add all of my custom Damage Types to all of my weapons and shields.

[regal flame]

broo, i know, but the problem is that whenever I try to activate it, I get a warning that my session has expired, and I've tried everything from trying the hytale website on my account where I put the discord login (there's the log in), logging out and in the server to logging in using the button on the launcher, I also tested with the game's own button, and even then it always gives the same login expired error.

Repair/Reinstall Game Files: If the issue persists, use the built-in repair function in the Hytale launcher.

[austere elbow]

reinstalled, same thing. I fixed it though, it was actually my skin. Going to dive deeper and find out which one exactly but going naked I can join

[short apex]

Weird skin items should be fine unless modded

[paper owl]

Hi There! I recently posted a mod showcase on the hytale reddit and it blew up! Gaining a lot of traction. But now it got banned - any recommendation what to do now? I already contacted reddit mods

It feels really discouraging that just as it starts gaining momentum, it gets removed at the peak of its hype. Even if it comes back, a significant portion of that momentum is already lost.

[fair gulch]

heya, how do I build a full grass block? My farmers workbench is maxed but I can only do moss blocks, not full grass ones

[slate crypt]

For those working with blockbench, I'm encountering an issue I can't get past.
I set a new texture for a model but every time I close the project and reopen it, it forgets about the new texture and swaps back to the old one or to no texture at all when I delete the old texture file.
Has anyone else encountered this?

[strong patrol]

Hey everyone, I have a question: is there a way to make an NPC invisible while keeping the weapon it’s holding visible?

[dusk cape]

Has anyone tried modifying the damage numbers to have a different font, be larger, or a different color?

[dusk cape]

My understanding is that when you open a project, it only opens the model, and you have to "apply" the texture you saved earlier. It seems they are saved separately at the end.

[strong patrol]

I’ve changed the damage taken by monsters and the damage taken by the player in terms of color and size.

[dusk cape]

Can one be done per type of damage? Or is it a general process?

[strong patrol]

To modify monster damage color, I cancelled the event where monsters take damage and reimplemented it myself. In short, you can adjust any type of damage you want, as long as it’s supported by the event.

[strong patrol]

I fixed with transparent npc

[dusk cape]

Where do the types of damage get their color from?

[final canyon]

I'm okayish, haven't had too much of a chance to practice yet, but here's my starter house I made in adventure mode(with the exception of the flowers in the planters, I spawned those in).

https://discord.com/channels/523059903812599811/1495762188420517928

What are you looking for?

[paper owl]

Oh that does look really good! I'm looking for someone who would be able to create a cool spawn in a specific theme

[plain bolt]

What kind of theme? And yeah that's probably going to be a lot of work to do a whole spawn. I might be willing to help with it if it sounds like a fun theme I'd enjoy, but hopefully you could get more than just me, because to do a whole spawn most likely will take a ton of time

That little starter house only took me total of like 90min in adventure, would be quicker in creative, but the bigger the build, the time really scales up

[paper owl]

I see! The theme would be like mystical Mushroom spawn 😄 Basically like a bluish magicalish looking spawn

[paper owl]

I see! Yea it definetly would be in creative

[plain bolt]

Sounds like a great theme! And yeah I figured it would be in creative, I was kinda just letting you know generally a timeframe. Depending how big the spawn is, for one person, it probably would take like 20 hours of work or more. Which I don't know if I have that kind of time, but I think I would be willing to help. Hopefully we can find more people tho. Are you a builder yourself?

also i tried on a windows pc and got the same error messages

[short apex]

Wait if you're joining them it won't be in your client logs idk what I was thinking before, what's likely going on is a antivirus or network filter on your end is blocking the connection

[stiff jasper]

how do i fix that

omg and my family did do smthg to the wifi last week ugh

[short apex]

That would likely be the cause

[short apex]

In my defense I did just wake up 🥱

[stiff jasper]

lol

any advice on how to fix that? idk anything about those types of things

[short apex]

If you're experiencing firewall issues, check in the Online Play menu after opening the world to multiplayer and check what NAT type is listed:

If NAT Type is "Standard (UPnP)

• Go to Control Panel > System and Security > Windows Defender Firewall > Advanced settings. Ensure that Hytale is in the list and says "All" under Profile and "Yes" under Enabled. If not, Double click on the entry and hit "Allow the Connection." If it's not in the list, Click "New Rule" in the top right and follow the instructions in the window that pops up.
• If Hytale is already here and enabled: You'll likely need to use a VPN like Tailscale, but idk where to start with that.
  If NAT Type is "Restricted (No UPnP)"
• Firstly, make sure you follow the above instructions. If that fix doesn't work, move onto the rest of this section.
• Windows 11: Go to Windows Settings > Network & Internet > Advanced Network Settings > Advanced Sharing Settings. Make sure Private and Public networks both have "Network Discovery" set to On.
• Windows 10: Go to Control Panel > Network & Internet > Change Advanced Sharing Settings. Make sure "Turn on network discovery" is checked. Hit "Save" if you have to switch it on.
• If these settings are already on: Enable UPnP in your Wi-Fi router's settings. This is different for every router and some routers don't support it. Do some googling for your router's model. Some routers require you to select specific Wi-Fi networks when enabling UPnP in a sub-menu, otherwise it won't actually apply to your network. So, make sure UPnP is set up right. If UPnP is disabled and you have to enable it, make sure you reboot your router afterwards.
• If none of these work: You'll likely need to use a VPN like Tailscale, but idk where to start with that.

[dusty ember]

UPNP does not work in pre-release for some reason btw

The one with social tab update

Also UPnP wont work if a person is behind CGNAT

[short apex]

Yep though I didn't know about the pre release issue hopefully that's fixed before release

i found a problem. sadly its more commen with many games now a days. wen in the background the anticheat from riot games is on the luncher wen it try to ptach NOW it will say its ready and need restart but every single time you do it it say it! i killed the "vanguard" and now its patching.. just saying it. dont know why. (maybe i need to lunch the game in admin to fix it)

[dusty ember]

Theres no anticheat in launcher

Did you get a leaked version or somethin

Riot long departed from hytale

Oh im dumb I see what you mean

Yeah vanguard itself sucks, its too invasive and I dont recommend you keep it installed tbb

[opal dune]

read again! the riot anticheat himself runs wen you have riot on your PC and solong any of ther games is on ther anticheat cursed problems with other games ba blocking them from patching! dont now why. this dossen mean hytales luncher have riots stuff its straight riots stuff who runs in the background wen you not exit it... but the china cheat tool can still run in riots games.. ..

[dusty ember]

I did realize that

[opal dune]

this is why i telled it here to solve maybe ppl with the same problem. on steam i got it on some games solong any riot game is open the games dont want patch.

[plain bolt]

I wonder if Riot did that on purpose to sabotage Hytale.. probably not

[opal dune]

i wishes the option "back to desktopn" will not exit the luncher. some times i just want to have the came not running but the luncher ready.
riot is just bad at anything. ther balance team cant do basic mathe for years now and ther anticheat like i say dont blocks chinas cheat tool XD and you can see every day multiple cheater in valorant who stream and sell ther cheats.

[dusty ember]

It does that with a lot of programs long before hytale. Vanguard itself is a security risk that should be removed. It is essentially malware

It makes your system vulnerable at ring 0 and falsely flags many things as insecure

[plain bolt]

I believe it. yeah that's terrible

[dusty ember]

Better wording: it is a rootkit

[plain bolt]

Yeah, I can't believe people willingly install that on their PC.

[dusty ember]

Look up vanguard drama and issues on YouTube, specifically by OrdinaryGamers

[plain bolt]

Ok. Yeah I've seen some videos on other anticheat software, and how they're like a rootkit and are a vulnerability.

[crisp sphinx]

the best anticheat is one that doesn't even work /j
i mean, look at easy anticheat in apex legends 💀

[stiff jasper]

okay sooo idk if anyone saw my messages yesterday but we learned its not my firewall that wont let me join but idk what it is. my friend started a new world and it let me join no issue, then we went offline, tried to play some more a bit later and now im getting the same issue

after giving me 2 new codes, it let me in...

[short apex]

Make a bug report for it and send in any logs

[stiff jasper]

i dont have any logs

[short apex]

Your friend will for the server

[stiff jasper]

oh alright

[dusty ember]

can you give me a rundown of what your issue is

[short apex]

They figured it out he was just making us aware it just randomly started working lol

[nova cairn]

hello i wanna join my friends server but it keeps saying its locked by a strict firewall

[south vine]

easiest solution is for your friend to turn on UPnP in their router settings. Tailscale could help if this is not a possibility. Otherwise, you can self-host locally and port forward or rely on a third party host which are more often than not, paid.

[fair gulch]

heya, is it really not possible to put chests on slabs or do I have a bug or faulty chest/slab combination or mod conflict? AI on Google says it should be possible, but we all know, AI is lying and I couldn't find a human made post about it, that says it's not possible, but I can't put the standard chest on smooth stone slabs.

[dry wharf]

I can place chests on slabs, even on smooth stone (the gray ones) slabs. Also can place a chest on a bottom half slab. The chest then floats a half block higher

[hard eagle]

So, having trouble with the teleport permissions, even with Luck Perms the permission nodes are not functioniong for those without Operator, why is this a permission you force into operators?

[fair gulch]

I tried to put it on an upper half slab. 🤔

[dry wharf]

Oh, just realized I use a mod that could be the reason it works for me. Wait a moment, I'm going to check this

[plain bolt]

Wait, I thought Hytale had a built in permissions system, am I tripping?

[hard eagle]

It does..... it doesn't work. At least not how I want it to work. I don't want to home, i don't want to to spawn, I desire going between worlds and that is it. It doesn't work how I desire it to work, and neither do the dang portals.

So now I'm ticked off at mod developers, because the permissions system doesn't work how it should or how I want, and those mod developers not keeping up dated are the reason I even need to look into world teleportation permissions, that don't work without having operator.

[plain bolt]

Are you sure you're doing the right permissions? Unfortunately I don't know much about Hytale permissions yet, so I'm not sure if I can help you.

[hard eagle]

lol I've used teleport.command.tp permission along side the one I actually want to work which is command.teleport.world, and doesn't even do things at all. all seem to require Operator and it's making me want to just tell everyone "Hey we have to restart again, because permissions nodes and teleporters aren't working how they are advertised to work, sorry folks"

Seems teleporters only work per world, not between worlds.

[dry wharf]

It's exactly as I thought. The mod I use makes that the Chests don't need a support block and a few other nice things. It's called "QoL Pack".

[hard eagle]

and I really don't want to get another mod, because these developers aren't reliable right now, as they keep leaving their mods behind annoyingly

[fair gulch]

I installed a mod like that too in the meantime: floating chests 😄

[dry wharf]

ok, nice

[urban agate]

Hello everyone, is it possible to have a "cape" (floating movement) effect on a weapon ?

[rustic estuary]

anyone can guide me on how to make my custom UI? or kind enough to share your custom UI thru git?

[short apex]

You should work on NoesisGUI UI code for your mod as well as the current GUI system btw

[rancid ingot]

Does anyone know anything about NPCs? My problem is that in my custom dungeon, the skeletons always call in all the other skeletons, which isn't supposed to happen. When I enter my dungeon, 20 enemies come at me. Does anyone have any idea how to fix this?

[gloomy gazelle]

is there a officiial docs?

[short apex]

No but the unofficial modding discord docs are basically as good as official now

[gloomy gazelle]

why

[short apex]

the hytale modding discord has all the updated documentation worked with the devs https://hytalemodding.dev/en
Click 'Join the community' to go there.

[gloomy gazelle]

I don't understand why the official team doesn't release an official documentation guide—or rather (if it's too much trouble to create one), it would be enough to add a section dedicated to the documentation on the Hytale website, where the admins managing that section would be the ones currently working on the Hytale documentation.

In my opinion, instead of bringing the modding community together, it’s just fragmenting it, because if you search for “Hytale docs”, “Hytale mods docs” or similar you’ll get at least 10 different sites.
Thanks for the link

[short apex]

Because it's not finished yet

Also slikey is working with them on this documentation

[gloomy gazelle]

That's interesting. I'm new to modding (and programming). How hard is it to create a mod with custom sounds, custom blocks, custom animations, and custom interactions?
Just to clarify, do you mean the game isn't finished yet, or the docs?

[short apex]

Both

[gloomy gazelle]

As a beginner, how difficult is it for me to create a mod with those features?
One more thing—do you happen to know why there are both Plugins and Mods folders inside the server? Is it just for organizational purposes, or do they serve different functions?

[proper elbow]

It's not hard at all, I highly recommend watching any modding tutorial video you can find on youtube, there are plenty there that'll get you started

[short apex]

Kaupenjoe explains it well

For both your questions

[gloomy gazelle]

Thank you, everyone

[chrome rivet]

Need some help with the game crashing. I cant seem to load my avatar, so I cant load into a world and cant go into the avatar itself to change, which causes the crashes. Also inside the game its saying I only own standard and not cursebreaker as well.

I do have the error logs if needed

[short apex]

Make sure the account your on actually has cursebreaker on the website

[chrome rivet]

It does

[short apex]

Okay then relog to refresh the token if that doesn't work clear the launcher cache

[chrome rivet]

How do I clear the cache?

Nvm relogging seemed to have worked, thanks

[short apex]

Yw

[cedar tinsel]

i've been having trouble connecting to ANY server. every time is says "failed to connect, connection timed out" and i have tried to uninstall and re-install the game. i tried to remove personal mods which is what people said to do on reddit but idk, nothing i been trying is working.

other fixes i've seen include having ethernet which i am not connected with. my pc is wireless/wi-fi??

it gets a little over half-way loading most times, and then "times out" :(

[short apex]

If the servers are loading assets just rejoin til it finishes

[dusty ember]

ok, can you send me the latest log files? it is located in C:\Users\YOURNAME\AppData\Roaming\Hytale\UserData\Logs

[short apex]

This is common if the server has a bunch of modded assets to load

[narrow ore]

Help

I have a problem

[short apex]

?

[narrow ore]

https://discord.com/channels/523059903812599811/1497146413987921950

I really need to understand why I can no longer rotate the blocks

[short apex]

survival or creative

While holding a block in creative mode or using building tools, press 'R' to rotate the block's orientation in 8 different directions.

[narrow ore]

creative

watch the video that I put

how do I fix this

??

[short apex]

you cant post videos if your having issues try a restart or reinstall the version

[narrow ore]

That's what I did and I even made a video, it's not normal, it deteriorates over time, the entity tool like that keeps breaking more and more!!!!

it breaks my builds

[short apex]

that has to be a install error because i dont see how the tool would be getting worse

[narrow ore]

light up hytale and look in pre-release the entity tool look for yourself too

I'm not talking nonsense, it's not for nothing that I made a video

[short apex]

if its a issue in pre release only make a bug report

[weak jungle]

is there any channels for LFGs?

[short apex]

no

[south vine]

Just tested - it is bugged so I'd make a bug report for sure. I don't see it deteriorating over time though, unless you're referring to the entity tool across updates.

Was it bugged in pre-release 4 too? That had a bunch of entity tool changes.

I can rotate NPCs, so it isn't that the rotate is broken, it just isn't affecting blocks. I wonder if that has something to do with falling blocks being supported?

Can rotate via the spawn menu, albeit that is more annoying.

Although a little advice, mention the entity tool from the beginning. People were assuming you couldn't rotate in survival. 🙂

[narrow ore]

At the beginning he was fine, they changed some things and it started to go badly, but now it’s going too far, these are bugs that weren’t there

[brave nimbus]

Anyone know how to add chest with items in them into prefabs?

[hazy mesa]

My son's account was hacked almost 3 weeks ago, He did put a ticket in with proof he owns the account. All he needs is his email set back in his account so he can play. Please Help.

[autumn bridge]

i would follow up in the support ticket you/he currently have. this is just a player chat really. theres feedback here, but no true support on any account level

[hazy mesa]

Ok thank you

@autumn bridge how do we see his tickets?

[autumn bridge]

im not familiar with the process, has he received no feedback on it?

[hazy mesa]

none

haven't gotten any emails either

[autumn bridge]

i wish i could be of more help, all i really know is theres not any true support here for accounts etc. this is a general forum for the game, but not account support.

some others may know more though

[short apex]

He should have gotten an email for it when he made it, it will be there or maybe in spam but fair warning the support team got really overwhelmed at launch and is backed up at least a month or so in general

[hazy mesa]

alright thank you for your help

[short apex]

Yw if u need anything else let me know just remember when he gets it back to get his 2fA set up it doesn't hurt to be more secure these days

[hazy mesa]

ok and we definitely will do the 2fA when he gets it back

Hello
I've run into an issue where it appear my hytale files got corrupted, couldn't join any world, so I tried validating my installed version...
Missing/Corrupted file : "dependency binary missing: game@2026.03.26-89796e57b"
So I do as asked and try to uninstall the corrupted version... but I get this error :
"Failed to uninstall Hytale 2026.03.26-89796e57b"

Any help is appreciated

[spring gazelle]

my world just crashed and said "Failed to apply CustomUI HUD commands" when i tried to mine a log with an adamantite multitool from the "Multitools" mod by InkBlindCat on curseforge, how do i figure out which mod is responsible?

[opaque olive]

Managed to uninstall and reinstall the release version, let's hope I can open my world...

[spring gazelle]

got the same crash when removing mulitools and mining a log with a hatchet

[spring gazelle]

ok the bug no longer occurs with eyespy removed

[opaque olive]

Nope... still corrupted...

[opaque olive]

Tried using the pre-release version, doesn't work.

[dry wharf]

Don't know what went wrong with your world, but you could overwrite the world with a backup, which the game makes every hour or so. And don't use an other game version as you played the world with.

[opaque olive]

Thanks for the reply
I tried to open a brand new world both with the current release and pre-release, neither worked.
Without or with mods I get a seemingly infinite "Booting server", then the files get corrupted the next time I open the launcher.

[dry wharf]

Hmm 🤔. If you can't play a new world either I would guess some of the game files got corrupted for some reason. If this would happen to me, I would make a manual backup of all my world files, uninstall the game completely and make a fresh install. Make a test with a new world. If the test worked Then copy back all world files and start over.

[opaque olive]

I think I did that already unfortunately, not sure if this helps but I must restart my PC whenever I delete the hytale file since some process keep running in the background after I open then close the game.
I'll send a bug report and contact technical support.

"Failed to submit bug report. Please try again." 💀

Am I cursed ?

[dry wharf]

ok, sorry I couldn't help more

[dry wharf]

This happens sometimes, Try again later or use the Hytale web site to do a bug repert

[opaque olive]

I'm on the Hytale website...

[dry wharf]

do the report directly from ingame

[dry wharf]

may be the bug report pages are overloaded on the weekend. Try again some hours later or tomorrow

[opaque olive]

Contacted tech support, might take a while but this appear to be a rather complex issue.

[honest musk]

Hey everyone, can anyone help me figure this out? I can't create a single-player world, and I can't play on any of the ones I already have either. It gives me this error. But I can join servers just fine with no issues.
FAILED TO CONNECT TO SERVER Server failed to boot.

[opaque olive]

Yeah I have the same problem and this error (among other things maybe.)
Sent a ticket to tech support along with a bug report that includes everything I did today to try to fix the problem.

[autumn bridge]

Do you guys have error logs?

[opaque olive]

I managed to open a new world after many tries (and various maneuvers), closed it shortly after but I wasn't able to re-open it, or any other world for that matter

[opaque olive]

Yup I have the game logs

[autumn bridge]

… the thing about logs is that they explain the problem

[honest musk]

If support gets back to you and you find a way to fix this, please share it with me. Anyway, good luck figuring it out!

[opaque olive]

I mean, I can't send the doc or a screenshot here, but the closest thing to an explaination I can find look like this :

That's like 7/10 useful lines out of 25ish, "Failed to read server config" I guess is kinda useful.

There might be more useful lines, but 99% of my modding experience is on World Gen V2, the asset editor and the asset node editor, haven't touched the code yet.

[opaque olive]

Thanks good luck to you too,
If you get some help/a fix tell me, and I'll do the same for you once/if I get something

[autumn bridge]

So you have mods loaded? Try removing them if not rename the folder, where the default configs are so the game regenerates a new one, and see if that helps

Or just pack up your world, and try a fresh install of the game completely @opaque olive

[honest musk]

I just deleted the game, mods, and the launcher right now, reinstalled everything, and I was able to get into a single-player world. As far as I can tell, the problem is fixed, but I'm not sure for how long.

[opaque olive]

Already did that a few times, fresh install then re-adding the mod + new world, same but without mods, fresh install of the launcher and game with new world + no mods.
Only managed to get a new world to start (briefly?) with no discern-able pattern
I make sure to restart the PC too since apparantly something Hytale related keep running in the background after I launch the game, task manager doesn't help ,-,

[autumn bridge]

its.. the mod then bro

back up world>
delete game
delete the full game folder
reinstall the game
try a new world before ever adding the mod

Leve said it worked for him

Caused by: com.hypixel.hytale.codec.exception.CodecException: Failed to decode

That usually means a JSON config exists, but one field no longer matches the codec/schema expected by the current build. Since this happens when creating new singleplayer worlds

if its any type of asset mod, its likely injecting itself to the assets.zip so youd either have to delete that along with the mod to be safe, or do a fresh reinstall, what ever is easier for you

[opaque olive]

Seems to have worked, but now I have to find what's causing issues in my mod

Thanks for the help 👍

[steady torrent]

Hey all, I've been working on my World Gen V2 contest submission for 7 weeks, and now I can't get it to work as a zip. My structure looks fine, my manifest is clean, I've tried removing various folders and files to see if there's any specific discrepancies, and my pack will just not validate after compression, without any issues when run as a folder. I've checked other world mods and we have similar files and structures, I've tried running my manifest like 5 different ways. I don't know what else to do and I'm just feeling gutted.

just letting you know so you guys can kick them

[peak goblet]

Someone can explain me this bug : No EntityStatValue found for index: 5

I have some crash withi this error...

[short apex]

This usually occurs when the game expects a specific attribute (like health, speed, or a custom modded stat) at a certain index, but that data is missing or corrupted.

[peak goblet]

This happens when i install a mod in my server (new mods) i delete the mod then i have the error. I need to delete my character json in the server ?

[short apex]

You probably need to revert to a earlier backup of your character jaon

[peak goblet]

Oh, then i delete the json but i already have this error...

It's impossible to know which mod add an attribute in index 5 ?

[fallen remnant]

In my mod, I have a cosmetic handler, and in the new pre-release I can’t show the player’s armor in first person. Does anyone know if they changed the logic, or how I can fix it? It's working fine in the older version;

[short apex]

Index 0: Health
Index 1: Stamina
Index 2: Mana
Index 3: Oxygen
Index 4: Signature Energy
Index 5: Ammo

[short apex]

this is prob a better question for the modding discords documentation

It's possible that mod can add new index and replace index 5 ?

that much i dont know

[peak goblet]

So idk why i have this error ^^'

[short apex]

Me either 😭 but it's because something is making a boo boo

[peak goblet]

I just update some mod, i reverse to older version i still have the issue

[short apex]

i dont know how to tell you to debug this maybe the modding discord will know better since this is a odd issue

[peak goblet]

Thanks for your time

[short apex]

yw sorry i didnt know exactly how to fix it

[peak goblet]

Dont worry if needed i will delete all mods and add them 1 per 1

[short apex]

prob the best method

heya, ive been trying to get hytale to run for almost two months now but i still just cant get it to work, ive tried everything from forum posts to youtube videos but nothing seems to work. i have this issue that whenever i launch the launcher a webview2 missing requirements popup appears and it says "the webview2 runtime is required. press OK to download and install. note: the installer will download silently so please wait. press OK to install." but its done nothing. nothing ever installs or pops up. can anyone help with this please?

[dark ridge]

Are redwood trees bugged currently? I have been trying to grow them and they aren't getting as tall as they used to. Eventually I looked in the asset editor, and the redwood saplings last growth stage is the stage 3 prefab, not stage 4 prefab. Was this change intentional or is it a bug?

[visual elk]

did you try installing it manually?

[autumn bridge]

they tend to not grow if theyll affect blocks youve placed, not including dirt afaik

[short apex]

[lilac stream]

has hytale been hacked I cant get on.

[lilac stream]

hytale codes not working

[short apex]

Should be fine now

[obtuse glacier]

My discord is linked to Hytale, and I have a new device I would like to play on. I downloaded the launcher and the game. I clicked sign in then connect to discord after that it asks me for an email verification which on my new device I am on hytale login and on my phone in my hand I am on my emails so I click the hytale email and correctly type it into the sign in under 10 seconds. And it gives me an error saying, "Could not find a strategy to log you in with. Did you fill out the form correctly?" So it's an endless loop that never works. The links in #rules-and-info don't help either. I asked for help a month ago and got no response. No spam emails. I tried again today and once I explain what is wrong and send it wants me to verify so I do that and it verifies when I click the link but I don't think my help is sending now.

[short apex]

There was an issue with the login systems this morning try again now and if it's not fixed make a ticket under the account issues flags here: https://support.hytale.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

[quasi ridge]

Are we licensed to run the game on multiple computers (non-concurrently)?

[short apex]

You should read the ToS

[quasi ridge]

Congrats! You typed five words instead of one.

[onyx rampart]

shame theres no images it couldve been convenient to just paste whatever the relevant part of tos is

but like playing on one computer and then going home and playing on another computer? is that a scenario you are talking about? i dont see why it would be bad

[short apex]

I should have just pasted the ToS directly

[quasi ridge]

I don't either. I scanned the TOS before asking the question and searched for some keywords. Didn't find anything relevant. About concurrent use, multiple installations, etc.

[quasi ridge]

Actually sent a formal request 2 weeks ago and didn't get a response yet (other than the automated response that it was received).

[onyx rampart]

was it truly automated like appeared immediately? otherwise it probably could have been an actual person copy pasting the standard reply

[short apex]

They mean the automatic msg that they got the ticket

[quasi ridge]

What Titan said. Just the confirmation that the Web form request was successful.

Not even complaining about that. I imagine there is short staffing for that type of thing. And that response time (I read other comments) is why I asked before doing since a ban could take forever to rectify. I'm in the community help channel and it would've been easy to respond IDK or better yes it's section so and so from the TOS.

[short apex]

Sending you to the ToS is more helpful than a idk 😐 I'd rather send you to the most likely correct source than answer myself anyways for something this serious

I have tried a couple of mods via CurseForge as well as modifying the settings.json file directly, but it does not seem to make a difference in my Exploration mode world. Any pointers would be appreciated.

[short apex]

Are your sure your monitors brightness isn't like really low

[autumn cliff]

Quite sure. And I know I can turn it up a bit more, but that doesn't really address my issue, and then I am constantly turning it down when I am done playing so I can do the rest of my work on my system. Was hoping that I could get FullBright to work, but it seems it does not. Not sure if this is an issue with macOS vs Windows, or maybe Creative mode versus Exploration mode, but I cannot get the fullbright setting to work and was wondering if anyone else has had success with it.

[dusky pagoda]

i created a mace but i wanna make it faster, but idk how. i copied an interaction of a mace and changed the run time value but it didnt do anything

[lean sleet]

i am struggling immensly with the machinima tools. i look at the descriptions and button configs but nothing is working the way it says it does

[short apex]

I don't know Mac issues well so I was thinking about why full bright wasn't working for you it might just be bugged either way make a bug report on it please and thank you 😁

[short apex]

I bet it's a value called swing speed or something related I personally haven't played with animation yet but that's usually what it's called you could look into the documentation on the modding discord to see exactly what it is

[short apex]

Yeah machinima tools are very early dev descs there's a whole lot to get figured out before release

[lean sleet]

Does anyone know how to change the color os Fluid_Water in the Asset Editor?

[autumn cliff]

Bug report submitted with details.

[short apex]

Nice

[autumn cliff]

Fingers crossed that it will be addressed. 😀

[maiden snow]

Hi, everybody
It's the second day now that I can't even log in to a single player game.
The download stops at "Server Initialization (enabled)"

[short apex]

Locate the Hytale folder in your %AppData% (usually C:\Users[YourName]\AppData\Roaming\Hytale) and look for a cache or temp folder. Deleting these forces the game to re-initialize those files from scratch.

Or reinstall

[maiden snow]

Ok I'll try, thanks

[short apex]

[hasty gate]

:Hello! I've just moved over to Linux (Zorin OS), and run into a snag when reinstalling Hytale - I wondered if anyone else has had luck getting the setup this way. I'm trying to install Hytale onto a specific SSD drive used for Games, but it's insisting on installing on my Home/Documents drive, which is an HDD.

I understand this is because flatpak installs to the Home/Docs folder and have made an extra flatpak installation on my Games SSD. I was able to install the Hytale Launcher to this location, but the actual game files themselves are stuck on the directory being on the flatpak install on the main HDD.

Has anyone had luck on installing it on a secondary drive for the Linux build?

[opaque wasp]

How much time does it take again to recieve an answer from Hypixel Studios Support through the form? Been checking my email and the month nearly passed and no answer yet. Guess I won't be able to recover my account from the missing 2FA

[short apex]

If it's been over a month for a compromised account please send a new ticket using the compromised or hacked account flag for account issue tickets they changed the system to better prioritize these issues

[crude yarrow]

I am aware that there is no current spanish localization for the game, would it be possible for me to work on this via the .lang files that so far are only available on avatar customization or would I have to mod it in
(I do know and prefer games in english but I also know that making the game accesible for individuals of other native languages is also important)

[short apex]

There was something about the community translation but I don't know much about that

[crude yarrow]

I actually found it
#game-discussion message
It does seem spanish is basically ready so im ok with that

[mortal hedge]

Worst case just symlink it

[heavy echo]

Just wait a lil bit (really soon™) and Spanish should be out to players! As far as it is being done over Crowdin, it should be out soon enough.
But for you to change language via files is a much bigger story to explain how to do everything for it (I don't know how to do everything though).

[hasty gate]

I’ve been trying that with the game install, but the launcher seems to hate it. I might have to symlink from the launcher and see what it does then. 😩

[obtuse glacier]

Is Hytale really so backed up? I've been trying to get help for almost a month. I wanna play but can't...

[timber warren]

Are you able to change your email and have it resent to a new one? Maybe that would work if possible?

[lean sleet]

Anyone know how to keep NPCs from stacking when chasing the player?

[raven marsh]

Linux flatpak user I am having an issue connecting and getting ssl certs due to untrusted root any know of a resolution? Seems to have been working fine prior to the update but haven’t logged in for a bit

[autumn bridge]

try and run flatpak update, then reinstall/update ca-certificates for your distro then restart the app

[raven marsh]

Thanks I have tried this with no luck already. I’ll give it another go and see if i can get it to work

[quartz flower]

Question:
How am I supposed to know what went wrong?
Shutting down... 9 'client.disconnection.shutdownReason.pluginError.detail'
I would like to see what the shutdownReason is 😭

[short apex]

look above that in the log and see what the error was

[quartz flower]

Done:
The only remaining errors are plugins that don't have a target version

The rest of the errors I updated the respective plugins and are now gone

[heavy echo]

How have you encountered it (if you could replicate it)? So I can try and replicate it

[quartz flower]

After manually updating the rest of the plugins I've just been able to launch it. I think the outdated LuckPerms was giving the problems even tho no warning was related to that plugin.

Still it's pretty bad that we get client.disconnection.shutdownReason.pluginError.detail instead of the actual error

And it's not the first time I get that useless line

[heavy echo]

Because that's a missing string (for some reason doesn't show description), I will report it rq
Thank you for finding it!

[heavy echo]

Have you been playing on any other language or it was on English?
I have DM'ed you about how it should be looking

[short apex]

Yeah the more things that we catch like this the better

[heavy echo]

Like, it is translatable string, but for some reason isn't showing its description like it should though

*In game it is normal, but not in console for the server. Still reported it

[short apex]

Right and given it's consistent that means it's definitely a typo somewhere

[formal zinc]

Is this the right channel to discuss not being able to load worlds at all? no mods active whatsoever? I went to create a creative world from scratch and it said failed to connect to server

it seems to let me make a exploration map.

[proper vault]

(since there doesn't seem to be a modding-specific channel for this) does anyone here that makes mods know how to add a glow to a block in the editor? (i.E. like a computer screen or LED lights on a texture) I'm not exactly looking for the block to give off light (though I'd like to learn how to do that as well)

any options i've found in the editor so far only seem to affect the block if it's in the player's hand, but not placed in the world. It's been frustrating to find any info on minor things like this across the internet. I have no coding knowledge, i only know roughly how to use the asset editor right now

[rough vapor]

is it possible to uncap or adjust how much ram java uses in a world insteadof a server?

[dusty ember]

If you run a dedicated server locally yeah

[rough vapor]

are there any available resources for that? so far i have only seen the hytale server manual and i'm not really sure how that applies to just a world

[dusty ember]

Not a world, itd be its own server files,

[rough vapor]

got it, thanks for the help!

[tired glacier]

Trying to join a server but it says connection failed.

And the owner said their server is fine

Hello, does anyone know how to fix the the "Instance id 'Portals/Portals_Tiaga' does not exist, this is a developer error with the protaltype" error when tying to use the gateway? I have uninstalled mods, and rebuilt the gateway not no luck. It effects all my worlds.

[short apex]

Probably a reinstall because of corrupted file

[jagged wharf]

how to reinstall without loosing worlds? Do I just make a duplicate files in another folder then move it back afterwards?

[short apex]

Yes but I'd be worried if the issue persists we need to look at your logs there might be world corruption instead

[jagged wharf]

It is across a world from my life long, 2ish months ago copy, and another creative test world.

Sounds more like a game error not a world one. But I could be wrong.

[stable comet]

anyone have issues with placing a prefab and then doing /undo but some invisible blocks like windows or doors are still there, they dont show but the interactiob to open them are there still

[short apex]

I haven't yet but you could set the area to air to probably remove them

[stable comet]

remind me what tool i use for this again sorry its been a bit

[short apex]

Select tool then fill command

[stable comet]

Thank you very much

Hi there, I am not able to interact with my Weapon Forge anymore. I'm playing modded survival [no mods I am using interact with the Weapon Forge] and i was able to interact with it earlier. I went caving for Iron and died to Magma Rhino Toads. After respawning, i learned that I could no longer interact with my weapon forge

[short apex]

Does a reload fix it

[elder trench]

my bad, Blacksmith's Anvil.
And no, a complete reload did not fix it. Neither did disabling mods to check

[short apex]

Hmm that's odd I'd assume there's something in the logs when you interact but it could just be a fluke bug

[elder trench]

sadly i can't attach the logs

[short apex]

Yeah unfortunately

[graceful tangle]

Ughu

[elder trench]

ugh i can't even post a link because it'll be flagged

[autumn bridge]

Breaks the forge and replace it again

[elder trench]

tried to, doesn't work. I can break it and replace it, but I can't interact with it

i had to completely reinstall and reinstall my mods, and now it works

[short apex]

early access fun

[stable comet]

anyone ever have this issue...... so i placed a prefab down here a bit ago and then removed it now randomly around the area is like invisible windows or doors? how do i get rid of this it shows f to open but nothing is there and its like a block i cant walk through

[short apex]

use the select tool and set the area to air with the fill command until they fix that bug

[paper owl]

Heyo in creative when i spawn a tree for some reason doing Shift Y ( Undo ) Doesnt work... Any idea why?

[obtuse glacier]

Nope didn't work.

[jagged wharf]

So I reinstalled the game and created a new world and the same error occurs when trying to use the ancients gateway.

[dusty ember]

What is the error?

[jagged wharf]

"Instance id 'Portals/Portals_Tiaga' does not exist, this is a developer error with the protaltype"

[dusty ember]

Pre release or release?

[jagged wharf]

pre

[short apex]

I thought it was fixed does it only happen with the gateway?

[jagged wharf]

but not sure if it is also the release version

[dusty ember]

Can you pull up latest client logs? It should he in the top menus, I forgot where specifically but you should be able to find it

[short apex]

%APPDATA%\Hytale\logs\latest.log

[jagged wharf]

got it, what am i looking for?

[short apex]

A line that starts with a [Error]

[dusty ember]

Towards the end

[jagged wharf]

I do not see any error after the file booted section

[short apex]

Interesting @dusty ember u seem to know what to look for you wanna help him I gotta step out and grab food real quick

[dusty ember]

I learned a thing or two lol

[dusty ember]

Ok if your client isnt showing any errors then it must be server logs file

[jagged wharf]

found a line "2026-05-06 20:06:40.6049|DEBUG|HytaleClient.Application.Program|Pushed context: Ui (stack size: 3)" This is when opened then it is a size: 2 when closed.

[dusty ember]

Im gonna need a lot more than just that

[jagged wharf]

that is the only thing that is written as I interact with the gateway.

from the userdata logs

What do you need?

[short apex]

You can dm him and me the full log

[jagged mulch]

Can any of you help me figure out why my game won’t load?

[short apex]

If you still need help I'm around

[obtuse glacier]

Can someone help me, or do I have to wait over 2 months for staff who don't answer💀. I finally figured out what was wrong with my account myself and have hytale downloaded. I would like to configure hytale to controllers. I want to play on my rog ally. If anyone can send a tutorial or something, that would be great. Thank you.

[short apex]

Controller support is only in the very latest pre release that just dropped today, and people have gotten it to work on steam machines but I have no idea about a ROG ally, and you know all account support has to go through the ticket system

[paper owl]

Does anybody know why alt r does not rotate a prefab ?

[heavy echo]

Using Paste Tool?

[paper owl]

Yea i have the prefab selected i can rotate it with shift r but when i click alt r nothing happens :/

[heavy echo]

There is nothing on Paste Tool assigned to Alt + R
Shift + R - Rotates
F - Flips
If something is wrong, try to reset to defaults your controls. May fix, may not

🛑 HYTALE BUG REPORT: TINTING SYSTEM BREAKS IN VOID GENSummary:
Foliage and grass blocks render as pitch black when using the Void world generator because the engine fails to provide a fallback tint when no biome data exists.
Steps to Reproduce:
1️⃣ Create a new world or set an existing one to: /world settings worldgentype set Void
2️⃣ Reload the world to apply changes: /worldgen reload --clear
3️⃣ Place any tinted block: /block set ~ ~ ~ Soil_Grass (or any leaf/plant block).
Expected Result:
The grass should display a default green color (fallback tint) so Skyblock/Void maps are visually consistent.Actual
Result:
The tint mask defaults to #000000 (black), making all natural blocks look "void-textured" or broken.

[short apex]

Put this in the appropriate area but otherwise nice explanation

[reef fractal]

Has anyone gotten the gamepad controls to work on Steam Deck in the latest pre-release?

It's not been working for me

[jagged wharf]

Okay, some how with the latest update this error as been resolved from me. Thank you all that tried to help me with this error.

[short apex]

Your welcome? At least it's fixed

[jagged wharf]

Well at least I know now where to find the logs and know a bit more about what to look for when I have an issue.

[short apex]

Yep 👍

[autumn bridge]

I have multiple void worlds. This is never happened to me with the foliage and grass blocks.

[clever birch]

need some help. if anyone knows, is there any way to determine what mod might be overriding permissions management from the base game without knowing what mod is doing it?

For context, randomly out of the blue, my private server suddenly decided that mods are now managing the permissions for the server. Difficulty is, I don't HAVE a permissions mod, or at least, didn't add one, and I haven't seen anything in any mod changelogs to suggest it was anything i updated.

no mods were added before this change happened, I only updated a couple, and they were obviously my first suspects, but turned up nothing.

[short apex]

You should disable and readd them half of a list then the other then half again until you find the mod causing it

[clever birch]

That's my plan tomorrow if i've got the time, but i figured i'd ask in here in case there's some line or other I can search in the server logs for a mod taking over the permissions that'd save me time.

[grand forge]

Does anyone happen to know if factions (I.e, Feran, Trork, Undead, etc) have a hidden mechanic to boost their friendship with you to not attack you? I was curious about and searched and google, and numerous things pointed to that it's a thing. For Feran, it required a trophy from the Broodmother to show the village shaman. A reddit post that was a month ago also recieved interesting replies about it all.

[mortal hedge]

that info is probably from old blog posts, and hasnt been implemented in the hodgepodge version we play now

[hollow sage]

Guys my GF just bought Hytale to try it with the controller (therefore we're playing the prerelease) but she doesn't have the friend list or the social options in the settings, she still can get on my server to play tho, should we bug report or is there a fix?

[sharp brook]

Hello! I'm trying to make a plugin for entities that allows precise grid based movement (moving exactly 1 block in any direction, rotating at 90 degree intervals), does anyone know what components/systems I should be building off of for something like this?

[eager herald]

hi anyone know how to create a void world for skyblock proparly because whenver i creat a world and reset it to void grass block take black color so is there any way i want to creat a templat for my server so whenver a player join it will clone thats world but im still stuck on this

[steel ether]

I’m playing on prerelease using the Rog Ally X it’s been pretty decent only had to change or add a couple buttons

I came back after a couple months hiatus took me a bit to figure out controls but it appears all my mods are now outdated what are people using for mods these days?
I originally had…
Better maps
Lucky ore
Dynamic tool tips
Eye Spy
Grappling Hook
Heal Spell Book
Multitools
More Stamina
MultiHUD
Simple Stack Size
Where am I
Wans craftable diving suit

Can anyone recommend a good replacement for these mods and where they go to get them? Been using curse forge but nobody updates their mods there apparently.

[paper owl]

How do i obtain void essences ?

Just by killing mobs at night ?

[short apex]

The void mobs specifically

[paper owl]

Ok! Are there any other ways to receive that ?

[silk lintel]

very occasionally in high roll chests... maybe... otherwise stay up all night and kill voids - go hunting them

gets real fun after dark with lotsa tentacles

[short apex]

Yep

[paper owl]

How many was it afte a succesfuly farm night ?

currently creating shops and trying to figure out the value of the void things:D

[short apex]

void essences i usually can get 40+ a night but youll usually only get 1-3 hearts if lucky

[obtuse glacier]

Please tell me how

[short apex]

having a large flat area helps

[paper owl]

Any new updates on when the new release will be out?

[short apex]

updates always release the week after the last pre release and on thursday same as pre releases

[eager herald]

The only solution I found is to add:
Tint: (choose your tint here)
in the World Config → WorldGen section. After that, reset the world and delete all previously generated chunks. That should fix the issue.
You can use any color for the tint to define the grass color. By “grass,” I mean all grass-related blocks and objects that use grass tinting.

[paper owl]

But on the launcher the release version is the same for like month noe

[clever swift]

Have questions about reinstalling the game (think the files are corrupt).

• Are there other files to back up beside the UserData folder?
• is the license kept or do I have to buy the game again?

[molten magnet]

Hi, I have a server running from 16 o'clock to 22 o'clock and while everything stays persistent, I and every other client on the server have to redownload the every single asset anew everyday. Anyone any idea how to cache the downloads (or other shenanigans)?

[short apex]

No there's no method for that yet it's actually one of the biggest growing pains I've seen on the server hosting side for clients joining is needing to always recache assets every time

Hopefully it gets better with time and soon

[paper owl]

Quick question does it make a difference in performance when i create lets say 10 chests by just playing them or 10 chest placing them via entity tool / item ?

[short apex]

Hmm depends on how many at once id assume because using a tool to place 10 chests is placing 10 at one time while no matter how fast you are it will always be sequenced

[steel ether]

What do you mean how? Before controller support I was using steams controller mapping to make the controls like Minecraft.

[velvet hill]

What mods are server owners using to present information to new players? Holograms mods seems to be outdated now, or not updated in months, and I can't find anything that's good to relay information, etc.

[short apex]

Probably NPCs or signs

[obtuse glacier]

Oh I tried that I must not be doing it right.

[velvet hill]

signs are a thing in hytale to write on....

I rather not have NPCs

[short apex]

You asked for alternatives there's the alternatives

[dusk cape]

Hi there I wanted to ask someone with experience, or who's been working with this for a while, how to create icons? I made a mod that creates an effect when you do something. And I wanted to use Hytale's effects system to make my effect icon appear there, so I want to create my own xd It currently works, but I'm using game icons and other test items that work, but I want something customized.

[next mist]

finally i know i aint the only one with this

[zenith vector]

Hey guys, is it possible to run hytale twice on 1 pc with 2 accounts?

[short apex]

i dont think so

[thick latch]

In the launcher you need to hit the gear icon next to the play button from there is a section that says release and then change it the prerelease patch line.

[hollow sage]

She already is in prerelease, else she wouldn't be able to play with me

[thick latch]

If that is the case after controller and gamepad settings is social. I would log out of the launcher log back in verify you can see all those tabs in settings and then submit a bug request if on the latest prerelease patch line. I had to relogin and then relink discord( my discord option on social was non functional)

[next mist]

i have the same issue and ive tried so many things so im just waiting on support to respond and i also have reported it as a bug just even without the controller

[lean sleet]

Does anyone know how to make Prefabs spawn in specific biomes in World Gen v1? I know how to do it in v2, but the game does not use World Gen v2 unless you are making instances. As far as I am aware.

[next mist]

yo @hollow sage did that work for you so ik if i should test it aswell

[hollow sage]

Can't really check, we're both preparing exams

[next mist]

ok

[thick latch]

alrighty. not entirely certain there is a bug but does anyone have details on how hytale determines refresh rate? I currently am experiencing the following. i have the nvidia driver set to use 3d applications vsync. i have an LG display using DisplayPort set to 1920 x 1080 @ 120hz refresh. verified in nvidia drivers and msi afterburner. i have set the max fps to 240 and vsync on in game and thus it should be syncing to 120fps. However the max is 60FPS in latest pre-release patch line and the same in the main release on windows(using 3.3 opengl oddly) in linux the game renders with vync using opengl 4.6 at the same resolution and settings. using windows mode set to 1920x1080 and borderless gaming to work around the issue on windows for whatever i have going on.

[thick latch]

well... i found out whats up. turns out windows is the issue. i had to go to System > Display > Graphics in windows 11. Under Custom settings for applications, i had to add applicatiopn and chose both release and pre-release binaries. Then for each i had to select Preferred GPU and choose by GPU. Windows 11 is trying to use both the CPU based onboard and the Dedicated GPU......

[short apex]

Intergrated graphics should be disabled the second you put in a graphics card

[thick latch]

definietely agreed but this dell SFF enterprise chassis potato doesnt care to allow that in the bios and this is the only game that does that oddly. OBS on the other did this. definiely a windows 11 bs moment

[short apex]

Yep definitely Linux growing on me

[thick latch]

whats even better is if i DONT set it and plug into the onboard display port it uses the quadro anyway..........

[acoustic talon]

Linux my beloved

Anyone else having issues load into their worlds?
When I made a new world it wont let me enter it. Giving me "failed to connect to server: failed to start server! String is empty"

[thick latch]

Validate and recover or restore backup. Recommend making support case and get them logs

[fair pumice]

hey guys i have an error going on with my hytale

does anyone know what i should do about it? who to contact where when and how?

[next sky]

I feel kinda stupid but I am gonna ask anyways: How do I validate the files?

[thick latch]

At the worlds right click to edit and go to backup tab. In the end 3 world was fixed and other 2 had to be restored from last back up after doing validate and recover. Seems it was only once from past pre-release that were moved when they split the storage location.

Both the ones that had to be restored from back up had nitardo performance mod accidentally left enabled.

[next sky]

Seems like i am still getting the "empty strings" error

[thick latch]

Well looks like you need to submit a ticket with the logs. Restoring the last back up fixed the two the other options didn’t for me. I wonder if I should still submit a ticket.

[short apex]

If there's still a problem to be fixed I would also bug reports aren't tickets

[hidden frigate]

heey!! anyone can help me with an issue! everytime i want to join any server the game insta crash in loading screen!! i try reinstalling, and there is no error on logs help?

[short apex]

Reinstall

[next sky]

I for sure submitted a ticket. If it can be helped I wanna leave Uninstalling as a last resort

[next sky]

It looks like I can't play pre-released version at all. I have tried uninstalled/re-installing even. I sumbitted a bug report though. Just sucks I can't enjoy the pre-release form

[acoustic talon]

Oh hello fellow Unknown named guy

[oblique tundra]

my main menu just bugged out and I can't get ingame

It launches fine. I have a video that explains it better.

i got a question about hosting a hytale server

[short apex]

I might be able to answer

[tacit hatch]

its an error in the console when i start the server, but automod isnt letting me paste in the error

Checking for Hytale server update...

[short apex]

Verify Internet Connection: Ensure your server machine has a stable, active internet connection by pinging an external site (e.g., ping 8,8,8,8).
Review Firewall and Proxy Rules: Outbound HTTPS requests on port 443 might be blocked. Ensure your firewall or proxy allows connections to the Hytale manifest URL.
Increase Timeout Settings: If you are using a custom launch script or a third-party server management tool, look for a timeout configuration variable and increase it from the default value.
Check DNS Resolution: Your server might be struggling to resolve the download hostname. Try switching your system DNS to a public resolver like Cloudflare (1,1,1,1) or Google (8,8,8,8).

[tacit hatch]

should i make a ticket with the hosting service about it?

[short apex]

Yeah

would someone be able to help me with modding hytale via curseforge? i cant seem to launch it with mods

[short apex]

It's the same system as Minecraft but for servers you just join they host the mods

i mean i cant get mods to work in general; not even single player

[short apex]

But you assign mods per world not just by putting them in your mods folder

Method 1: Using the CurseForge App (Automatic)
Download and open the CurseForge App.
Select Hytale from your game list.
Click Browse or Discover to find the mods you want.
Click Install. The app will automatically place the files into your game folder.
Launch Hytale and go to your Worlds list.
Right-click on your world and select Mods (or world settings).
Check the boxes next to the installed mods to enable them, then save.

[strong owl]

ah thx

[short apex]

Yw

[strong owl]

i now know what i did wrong

[short apex]

That's good

[dusty ember]

Its hard to help people withoht having the basic of permissions

No image uploading no nothing

[short apex]

Well when people abuse the privileges we get

[mortal hedge]

i mean they could just lock the privileges behind verification and do the most minimum of moderation when something happens

[short apex]

Yeah but it's safer to avoid it entirely

[rough acorn]

Eh, I do think it sabotages it a bit too much. Including the adaptive slow mode which kills any back-and-forth about diagnosing and resolving issues.

And an image really does say more than a thousand words. And allowing only linked accounts will also let them mark the actual Hytale account as being "banned from discord", so you don't get the same trolls making duplicate accounts to keep stirring up trouble.

[short apex]

yeah im not saying images arent fine we just need to restrict them to diagnosis areas

[steady stag]

hey can anyone help me with a technical issue? every time i try to lay i get the server failed to boot error, even on bran new worlds with no mods, nothing i've tried so far worked.

[short apex]

whats the error in your log file

[steady stag]

how can i check?

[short apex]

AppData/Roaming/Hytale/UserData/Saves/Your World/logs

[steady stag]

my path only goes "AppData/Roaming/Hytale/UserData/Saves/"
past that is only "default" and "mods"

[short apex]

your world is likely named default

[steady stag]

yeah there wasn't any logs there, just copies of the "mods" folder, and it only had one mod.
i'm gonna try a full reinstall

[short apex]

that would be my next step

[steady stag]

fixed!!

ty for the help

[short apex]

Yw enjoy the game

[short apex]

What did you get kicked for

[edgy leaf]

Stupid bot doesnt' like me. I had my Studio name in my name... Simon fixed it himself. He's such a nice guy, to take time and deal with it

[hidden frigate]

ppl ca try to hack my acc by only looking at my logs?

[short apex]

No

[devout fossil]

Anyone know why I keep getting this error for pretty much every mob on my server?

" com.hypixel.hytale.logger.sentry.SkipSentryException: java.lang.RuntimeException: Cannot use role template 'Cow_Calf' (880): java.lang.IllegalStateException: Builder Cow_Calf failed validation! "

[sage lodge]

¿Has agregado algún paquete (asset) propio?

[devout fossil]

I have mods but not added assets no

[short apex]

english only please

[short apex]

something is broken either in a mod or your install

[sage lodge]

If he understand, there's not problem. It's a language.

[devout fossil]

I just used Google translate haha

[sage lodge]

Yeah, you get what I said anyway haha

[devout fossil]

The install for the server is fresh as for the mods I guess I'll have to go through them all one at a time and see what stops the errors.

[sage lodge]

Exactly

[short apex]

It's a discord rule please abide by it

[sage lodge]

I apologize

[short apex]

I accept your apology

[next mist]

?permaban @sage lodge reason: why not

lol i aint a mod

[late nova]

hi guys, new to modding hytale, seems to just be dragging and dropping jar files, but how do you use .zip files? some mods do that, do you just drag and drop those too or extract them never mind, turns out a mod i was using was just outdated lmao

[rough acorn]

Yeah, that happens sometimes, lol.

[modest fern]

how do i make it so a volume trigger requires 0 quantities of an item in my inventory? it only lets me choose a mininum quantity but it won't let me choose 0

[short apex]

Well 0 means nothing so ofc you can't choose 0

[modest fern]

then how do i trigger something when detecting i dont have an specific item in my inventory anymore

for example, a quest where something triggers after you consumed apples from your hand

[short apex]

Give them a junk item that works as currency or something or just as a quest complete marker

[lean shadow]

maybe some folks on hytale modding dc can help ya

[short apex]

It's still pretty new but there may be be a trick to get the result you want
