The Forest Config Files


Ayatomi

Recommended Posts

Greetings everyone.

 

I am currently looking for "The Forest" server files. But the person who worked on it and apparently had it completed, is not able to be reached and have gone "rogue" / no online since.

 

Is there anyone here who have the config files for it?

also cannot seem to find the server it boots ok but cannot find it in the server list

 

Hi, to get the server in the server list you need to setup a steam login for the server. It will give you a login token that you need to put in your config.

 

Here's the site to create the token:

https://steamcommunity.com/dev/managegameservers

 

On that page you need to make one for The Forest with 242760 as your game.

 

I'm unsure about how it's placed in the config file I don't have any raw text file to show and i've never done it myself. If this is not done you'll never see the server in game.

 

Here's a link to see an image file of Configuration Editor with this in it.

After MUCH research I've concluded that my dedicated server is locked to only 1 resolution. I've edited the registry to try to change the default resolution of The Forest dedicated server but it reverts back as soon as you run it again.

 

I believe my particular problem is related to the server using the default Microsoft Display Driver instead of the one that should be installed. DXDiag shows only the 1 available resolution and it's higher (1920x1080) than The Forest allows. It does work when logged in via RDP probably because it's not trying to run as a background process and runs in a 1024x720 window.

 

If I do figure this out I'll post a solution.
