SoulMask Missing API

[SimpleServer]

Windows Server 2022

Tried to make a Game Config File for the new game Soulmask but i keep getting this Missing API error that i think is shutting down and causing it to crash.

I did everything i could find from google with making sure the API_ID txt file is in the correct location, added the API steam number to the game config,

installed putty on my server for telnet stuff.... i have tried multiple query protocols to see if that helped... im just not sure what else to try?

Do you have the Steam client running on the same machine? Did you try to launch the game service with -NOSTEAM on the commandline?

[matty5350]

Any chance this got worked out yet?

[conceptr980]

Did you apply what dennis mentioned ??

On the other hand,  Copy the following files from WS\Binaries\Win64 to root directory and start the server in order for the server to work:

steamclient.dll
steamclient64.dll
tier0_s.dll
tier0_s64.dll
vstdlib_s.dll
vstdlib.s64.dll

[jungleNZ]

-nosteam does not work as a commandline option. (it got depreciated)

You have to take the ...64.dll files and put them in location mentioned previous post. (you can take the other files as well but 64's seem to be only ones needed)

I moved the .dll files as mention from jungleNZ and that fixed all my issues.
