Atlas

[CloudNine]

Anyone got any information on setting up an atlas server? seems to be a very fumbled launch

[Skurnicki]

I "played" it yesterday... they just need to unlock it so private clusters can make shift the population so the offical servers can work

[Gotteshand]

Hi Do you have something new? The files there are at 100GB that can not be

Page 7 you will find working server files download links

Hopefully someone will have a working config soon <3

Hi.

 

Now ist in Steamdb 1006030 open for Publik

 

Best Reguards

I'm getting close to a working config. There are quite a few aspects to it unlike any other games I've done. You will need to make your own map in order to get the server started as one is not generated nor included with the server files.

[crunkinshoe]

Also each server currently takes a lot of CPU (15% usage on a 32 core machine) and at least 4.5GB RAM.

A game that's not optimised from the same people the developed ARK? No way! ;-)

[conceptr980]

Hopefully a working config will be posted soon as i got kind of confused working with Redis.

Im willing to pay for an template that is easy to use, my gaming community is begging for a cluster and reading the step by step on nitrados wiki im finding my self mouthing "how the hell.." after each line i read.

 

The concept is really cool but im still learning the tcadmin basics and this one far exceeds anything I know.

 

Hell amonth ago I was proud to figure out how to add events tab to arks command line

[tisky07]

I have the same problem like Gotteshand. So difficult to start it...

[Gotteshand]

 

Let's see how far he starts now

[Gotteshand]

No, my mistake is, I give it all crap and Redis is not working and there is something wrong with the jason files

[crunkinshoe]

I have the server online so I can confirm it does indeed work.

 

Create a map. The default maps included with the editor have some issues (Ship lanes out of bounds, etc..) but if you zoom all the way out you will see the problems and can delete them)

Edit the redis config to change default password. Search for foobared and change the password to something else.

Use the batch file to start redis.

Let that sit in the background untouched

Export your map from the editor. It will create a export folder in the same directory with the JSON files but the servergrid folder will be empty.

Export the map image

export the cell images

drop cell/map images into the servergrid folder

drop the entire contents of the export folder into the shootergame directory for atlas

Edit the JSON files to reflect you needs and make sure the ports are all in order

Start the maps using the example given by Jatheish

As Crunkinshoe said you have to make the maps for the server in order to get the server up. Can confirm the server files work with the right setup.

[crunkinshoe]

Just found out you need a separate redis server instance on a different port for each cluster.

Sounds like this game is a pain to host...

Ain't that the truth!

 

Does anyone know how I'd get the redis-server.exe associated with a specific game server to stop instead of stopping all redis servers with taskill redis-server.exe?

I know I can kill via PID but how would I get that specific PID? Thanks!

[Dennis]

Rename redis-server.exe to redis-server-USERID.exe and kill that instead - that was what we did for ARK Remote a long time ago

[fjamieson]

Been looking at Atlas too...

Not being too clued up on TCA... how does one launch a second 'required' executable?

I understand creating the 'game profile' and launching the game server.

 

In the case of Atlas: I assume Redis is in the Atlas files distro, if not add it to the TCAGames\Atlas folder. As part of the game profile setup the Redis config file with the appropriate variables. Then upon installation execute a script that renames the .exe and launches the redis-server.exe.

 

Any help understanding this process would be greatly appreciated.

[Ragonz]

This game is a pain in the [insert word here]

 

I engineered a method to start/stop redis based on pid rather than the sensible way of just renaming it.

 

Redis comes with Atlas files from steamcmd, yes create a script that runs before start to start up redis with your config file (use a different config name than the standard as it will be overwritten by steam) then use a after stop script to kill redis.

[Skurnicki]

Yeah I gave up on using tcadmin for this, I was able to get a 2x2 up and hell that was a pain in the ass just running it with bat files.

 

I'm seeing host havoc has a config up (they use tcadmin) but on a help discord it sounds like they messed up

[Vicente]

Has someone managed to run atlas in TCA?

 

I have created a config and everything works, but when the server starts, "Error" appears, but when checking the programs the atlas server starts
