Rabb 0 Report post Posted June 3, 2015 There are a few command line parameters that the dev's have given out could you maybe give some examples of how exactly we use these with the Custom Launch Parameters in the system. Do we need to include ShooterGameServer.exe?, a few examples would help most of us to use these. Drake [developer] 11 hours ago Here are some command lines for your servers:ShooterGameServer.exe?TheIsland?COMMAND1?COMMAND2?etcCommands:ServerPVE: this enables PVE mode. players can not hurt other players, or their structures, or their tamed dinos.ServerHardcore: this enables ahrdcore mode. when you die, your character is gone.ServerCrosshair: this enables use of the crosshairServerForceNoHUD: this force disables the floating character name popupsAltSaveDirectoryName: this is if you wanna save the data to an alternate directory to run multiple concurrent servers or whatnotGlobalVoiceChat: this will make voice chat not proximity basedProximityChat: This will make text chat proximity basedNoTributeDownloads: This will disable downloading external items/characters/dinos into this ARKAllowThirdPersonPlayer: this enables players to play in 3rd person foot mode (work in progress)AlwaysNotifyPlayerLeft: this will notify playres when someone leavesDontAlwaysNotifyPlayerJoined: this will prevent notification of players when someone joinsWe will expose these all to INI in the next day or so, and create a GUI launcher shortly thereafter! Lots more coming as well Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
And 0 Report post Posted June 26, 2015 +1 to this post. I'm new running a server and did so in order to host for my buddies and I. So far I'd tried typing in server commands into the custom launch parameters but had no luck. I tried typing the commands with a ? after them and it didn't work out. Next I read the FTP guide and downloaded filezilla etc. I then edited ShooterGame/Config/DefaultEditorUserSettings.ini (this is not the file to edit) added these lines: [serverSettings]ShowMapPlayerLocation=TrueServerHardcore=TrueGlobalVoiceChat=FalseProximityChat=FalseNoTributeDownloads=FalseAllowThirdPersonPlayer=FalseAlwaysNotifyPlayerLeft=FalseDontAlwaysNotifyPlayerJoined=TrueServerPVE=FalseServerCrosshair=TrueServerForceNoHUD=FalseDifficultyOffset=0ServerAdminPassword=*******ServerPassword=******* I'm currently rebooting my server to see if this works. I'll let you know if it does. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
And 0 Report post Posted June 26, 2015 Ok Rabb. I'm learning. That didn't work. Here's what you want to do - use the FTP and edit this file: /ShooterGame/Saved/Config/WindowsServer/GameUserSettings.ini Put a couple spaces after your server settings and add the stuff you want. When you save that file and re-up it to the FTP then boot your server, it will have worked. This is a good list of commands http://ark.gamepedia.com/Admin_Game_Commands Next I'd like to find out how to do admin things like message of the day, etc. Not sure how but I'm sure it's easy. Anybody else want to chime in, please do. This forum seems to have some good info in it already, but hopefully I've helped somebody figure out how to set custom game parameters up.

Twickz83 1 Report post Posted June 28, 2015 All you have to do is hit that little "?" under launch params & it will give you the proper command line you just need to add what you want. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
