Adding Mods to download on TCadmin

Rislem · January 5, 2019

Hi Guys

Conan exile uses simple Steamcommand to download mods, does anyone know of a guide or a file or anything I can use to add this to TCadmin so the clients can download there mods without me needing to do it for them?

That is a mouth full thank you very much, now... last question, where must I put that in? Add it as mod or a script?

Jus61 · January 8, 2019

Iport this gameconfig : https://clientforums.tcadmin.com/showthread.php?t=12941 you can have a look at everything under Mods

Worst way to impliment it. I have many better ways. But due to nda unable to share. It's much less code. And is better executed

If you can't share it, why don't you talk about it?

numpty · January 12, 2019

I can share a simplified version. But I could loose business as it's a selling point for us that we have a workshop downloader

Rislem · January 14, 2019

Could you share a simplified version ? I am sure TCAdmin supports it I just cant figure it out.

I use a custom script for my DayZ Server's.

I use robocopy as I just enjoy it more, you can certainly use copy, or xcopy, whatever you'd like, but that should basically download the .pak file and copy it to the mods directory.

Goto the service, create a custom script, I use THESE settings, and give it a whirl.

You may need to change some directory structure around but it should be fairly close.

numpty · January 14, 2019

you would need to choose Prompt for variable values in the setup of the custom script my version is amaller but works as well

@Echo off

"%TCAdminFolder%\Monitor\Tools\SteamCmd\steamcmd.exe" +login YOUR STEAMID YOURSTEAMPASSWORD +force_install_dir C:\ +"workshop_download_item 221100 %ThisService_modnumber%" validate +quit

@Echo

SET "ServerPath=%ThisService_RootDirectory%"

::

::Mod Name

MKLINK /D %ThisService_modname% C:\steamapps\workshop\content\107410\%ThisService_modnumber%

add variables modname and modnumer to the game config and then make sure you select prompt for variable values and it works have it running on 155 Dayz Arma & servers.. little simpler butt just as effective

also clients WILL NOT SEE your steam login info i have confirmed this with all my clients servers

What about clients who have steam authentification i have a better script that requests the auth client needs to generate code via Email or app and then requests the ID after that but unfortunately unable to share due to NDA

if i wasn't i would gladly share it without a heartbeat ... im still able to share configs n stuff but any completely customized scripts i am unable to due to the NDA i am pissed but its business at end of day

I have a steam account that I use without authentication, for DayZ, so there's no need to worry about anything of the sort, it could easily be redone to fit most needs though.

ok its just looking at the script its like its asking the client to enter their steam info thats y i asked... i mean if you use yours and it just requires ID and name then its similar to mine jsut coded idfferently and lightweight too but as long as it works great share

HellsGuard · January 15, 2019

Thanks for this, as for the conan one, how does a client actually input the MOD ID?

You would just have to make the variables and make sure you set it as a script parameter, then when you make the script, you would select "Prompt for variable values" so before executing the script it will prompt them to enter any variables used in the script.

It's also a good idea to use the options to configure what that prompt will look like, like a textbox, checkbox, etc.

Variable Options

Script Options

Those are what I use.

Yeah it does appear that way since it's using environment variables but they're just set by default because I didn't want them hard coded into the script for security reasons lol

numpty · January 15, 2019

I mean if I wasn't under NDA id share mine its 30 lines and allows users to enter their steam info and authenticator code then take to another page to enter the mod id and name it took while to code but works flawlessly am in talks to get out of it so i can help more with the community other than just configs and basic scripts but unsure how or when I will happen ... that's the nature of the beast of business xD

numpty · January 15, 2019

thats understandable im same thas why i made a basic one that i am able to share but its not that amazing and not that secure but at least it hide secure info like username and password but still

Oh I know that feeling all too well lol, you help out everywhere as much as you can and I'm sure I speak for many by saying it is appreciated greatly.

it's like having a noose round mt neck hahaha it was a partnership in hosting as I do games voice and web they do dedis and VPS and we joined and we both have restrictions but still xD.. he said I am able to provide the scripts if I charge for them ... I mean some I have no problem as they take months to code and bug-free but I haven't really got the heart to charge for scripts that many could probably do themselves

I keep getting this You do not have sufficient privileges to perform this action

numpty · January 15, 2019

How. Are you running. Send screenshots of the setup of all vars and script I'll try n bugfix

Rislem · January 15, 2019

Ok I got it download but now I am struggling to copy it, this is what my script says

@Echo off

SET ROOTFOLDER=%ThisService_RootDirectory%

SET MODFOLDER=%ThisService_RootDirectory%\steamapps\workshop\content\440900\%modnumber%\

"C:\Steam\SteamCMD\steamcmd.exe" +login anonymous +force_install_dir %ROOTFOLDER% +"workshop_download_item 440900 %ThisService_modnumber%" -validate +quit

xcopy /y /i %MODFOLDER% %ROOTFOLDER%\test\

This is a test for now, the download works and it places it in those folders, I want to try and copy the .pak file into the above\test the folder doesn't exist that why I am using the switch /i so it creates the folder

When I run it the command prompt opens, it downloads it perfectly to ROOTFOLDER but then it does the below

Connection anonymously to steam public

Logged in OK

Waiting for User Info...OK

Downloading item 1456186728...
