[OFFICAL] Hytale

---

Note: These configs will be maintained by TCAdmin and will serve as the official Hytale configs for TCAdmin.

Note: Hytale requires TCAdmin 2.0.196.0 or later for the curse forge mod installation to work correctly

This config uses a mixture of custom scripts from myself @Dennis @clay (hosthavoc), and @SuperNova thank you to those mentioned

Note: For the env detection from your OS you must add an env variable called JAVA25 and then restart your monitors in TCAdmin

If you don’t see the Hytale config when creating the service:

• Create a plain text file inside the hytale folder located at C:\TCAFiles\Games\ (or the custom path you’ve configured).

• If the hytale folder does not exist, create it first, then add the text file inside it.
   

Note: For those that cannot get the service to start in TCAdmin change the settings from run as user per service to TCAGame

First of all, thanks for fast upload of official gameconfig.

Looks like on windows systems the bat created does not get edited by the before start script. 

Expected behaviour would be to look for the environment variable, if not found try to use the java downloaded on the server install, if that cannot be found stay with executepath java %*

On my setup expected outcome would be to set the .bat with direct path to the customerfolder/java/java25/bin/java.exe , but this will never get set, even if the java file is present. Path stays with the  java %* set by file creation.

I'm having problems; it's showing a start error. If I start the server from the command prompt, it starts, but not from Tcadmin. I have the JAVA25 variable configured. Since update 1.0.4, the server won't start.

OS: Windows server 2016

I cant seem to get this to work for me....
When I go plugins and install the game to the panel then when i'm in the game server creation list I don't seem to see Hytale anywhere in the list after adding it and installing it to my panel. Can someone please help me? 

 

UPDATE: I have figured out how to make it show in the create a game server list..

See if that sorts it.

I am getting the start error as well on Server 2022. When running the updater I am getting this fatal error:

202623 11:07:08 error printing version: error fetching server manifest: could not get signed URL for manifest: could not get signed URL: HTTP status: 403 Forbidden

CLI command failed with exit code: 1

I solved the server startup problem by modifying the .bat file to "%JAVA25%\java.exe" %*
The problem may be because it is being run per user per service

It appears to be working for me running as TCAGame. I guess there's no way to automatically have the updater and server get authenticated unless you have an entitled account... which they have stopped applications for at the moment.

What's New in Version 1.0.5  

Fixes for the Hytale Updater/Downloader

• Automatically detects 403/manifest/authentication errors during version checks.
• Clears expired credentials and triggers the CLI re-authentication flow.
• Continues the update on success, halts with a clear error on failure.

Is there a plan for adding Linux support?
