Momoniu 1 Posted July 27, 2019 Any Ideas on how to get a dedicated server up and running? I have previously had a 4x4 atlas server going for some time, but this seams like a whole new setup. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Momoniu 1 Posted July 27, 2019 found this in the discord server start ShooterGameServer.exe Blackwood? -log -server -NoSeamlessServer Different map name, and -NoSeamlessServer is required due to these servers not needing a database 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cradz 10 Posted July 27, 2019 (edited) Anybody set their Blackwood server to increase harvesting, exp, etc? Tried settings in game.ini and doesn't seem to work. Can't set server password either (seen others with this issue on discord too). -- Edit. I was editing the wrong .ini file as I was using AltSaveDirectoryName and then removed that later so it was using the default directory. Still can't set ServerPassword though.

DeepSeaDuo 4 Posted July 27, 2019 CRADZ: Are you editing the ini files in \ShooterGame\Saved\Blackwood\Config\WindowsServer ? Are you able to share your commandline please (remove any passwords). I've got ShooterGameServer.exe "Blackwood?SessionName=PVE Blackwood Test?AltSaveDirectoryName=Blackwood?ServerAdminPassword=xxxx?RCONPort=27130?QueryPort=27130?Port=27135" -NoSeamlessServer -Exclusivejoin -log -server -NoCrashDialog The server appears to start and creates a save file, but I'm unable to connect. Ports are all forwarded and firewall is open (I previously used these port numbers for the Ocean map). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cradz 10 Posted July 27, 2019 I have this in a .bat so I can run via a shortcut start ShooterGameServer.exe Blackwood?ServerPassword=XXX?ServerAdminPassword=XXX?MaxPlayers=20?ReservedPlayerSlots=0?QueryPort=57561?Port=5761? -log -server -NoSeamlessServer -NoBattlEye .. oh and I might have just seen why it's not picking up my game.ini .. might be using the original folder as I redid that .bat lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I forgot that BattleEye used to be a problem for Atlas. I'll try adding that command line arg. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cradz 10 Posted July 27, 2019 Yup my issue was I had set a new folder on my bat to start in and then removed that later so I was editing on the wrong game.ini .. doh! Now all good and my exp and harvesting rates are increased. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DeepSeaDuo 4 Posted July 27, 2019 And my issue was with not ticking the "show non-atlas servers" ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cradz 10 Posted July 27, 2019 Yea.. filter by your server name too as not all Blackwood severs show (which is good right now as you can't set a password) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SteveM 1 Posted July 27, 2019 (edited) You CAN PW a server! And you change all of the server settings exactly the same way you do with a normal Atlas server or Ark server for that matter Harvest Rates and breeding are in the game.ini XP is all in the GUS Edited July 27, 2019 by SteveM Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You didn't really elaborate and we've tried it in the command line AND in the server settings and still no PW... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Momoniu 1 Posted July 28, 2019 I have my Blackwood server up, just a small one formates and stuff, still working on that password too, tried in the bat file, or in the gus, under session name, I tried ServerPassword= and SessionPassword= do caps matter?

It should work under ServerSettings (ServerAdminPassword does work) but yea ServerPassword doesn't for me or several others on the Atlas discord. Really annoying having random people show up on my server. When I look at Server Info via the Admin Menu it does show Server Password *** so it's being set but just not being enforced when somebody joins.

Hattrix 43 Posted July 28, 2019 IF....IF we get our server up and running, how can we get and use the whitelist/blacklist abilities of an admin so no randoms join? We can't connect to the server and can't see it in the list. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Momoniu 1 Posted July 29, 2019 (edited) so how i did it is as follows, fresh install of atlas server create a .bat file with this command line start C:\atlas\ShooterGame\Binaries\Win64\ShooterGameServer.exe Blackwood?ServerPassword=xxx?ServerAdminPassword=xxx?QueryPort=57560?Port=5760?MaxPlayers=12?ReservedPlayerSlots=0? -log -server -NoSeamlessServer -NoBattlEye open ports on router run it, then exit, go to the newly created folder named C:\atlas\ShooterGame\Saved\Config\WindowsServer and edit GameUserSettings.ini, down the bottom under SessionSetting SessionName=call this what you like save/exit run bat file again, then in the atlas game, click, join new atlas, bottom left is a check box for show non atlas server, then search the name in the search feild Edited July 29, 2019 by Momoniu forgot a step Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We can't connect to the server and can't see it in the list. I tried Whitelist and set ReservedPlayerSlots to the same value as MaxPlayers and it gives a Server Full message even if you're on the Whitelist. I thought that would work ~shrug~ Is there a different flag for Whitelist only joining? I can ban but have to see them on the server to do that (I do sleep though ) Edited July 29, 2019 by Cradz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dread Pirate Jackle 1 Posted July 29, 2019 *Sigh* It is with great agony that I ask this but where are y'all getting the server files from? I haven't been able to find the steam ID to pull it down successfully on my dedicated. Any insight is greatly appreciated. I need my high seas back. Thanks.

PitMonk 9 Posted August 2, 2019 We have our dedicated server up and running just fine - The players love it. My question; To add other mods to this game, where do I list the Mod ID's? Normally they went into the ServerGrid.json file but Blackwood doesnt use a ServerGrid.json file, so which file do I list the mod numbers please? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PitMonk 9 Posted August 2, 2019 Going to give this a try: If you are using a non-seamless map (Such as Blackwood) follow the below steps instead 1. Find a mod that you want to use on the steam workshop for example https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1652044230 2. In the game panel click on install/update mods and enter in the mod id (example 1652044230 if there are multiple mods seperate them with a , example 1652044230,1652044230)3. add the mods to your GameUserSettings.ini configuration file and save it (eg. ActiveMods=1652044230,1652044230 4. Upload the .mod files from your pc to the server5. restart your server. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Boovov 1 Posted August 11, 2019 I got the blackwood server setup, however I feel that I may have missed something, there are no fish in the oceans, and when i relaunch the game for some reason I cannot rejoin my server with the quick rejoin last server button on the games main menu. Anyone know how to fix these issues? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hattrix 43 Posted August 12, 2019 I think the devs know about the lack of fish, but I don't know what their plan is. I think the LAST JOIN option is for dedicated servers, because I have the same thing happen to me, but you just have to click Join New and go in that way.
