Enabling the Winter Wonderland Event


ABYAY

Recommended Posts

Since the introduction of the Winter Wonderland event, I'm curious as to how to activate the event. I'm certain the control panel will have this as an automated option soon, but I'm just curious what has to be modified in order to enable the event. Is it through one of the .ini files or will a more in-depth process have to be done with a program such as WinSCP? The only thing the patch notes from Wildcard state is "ActiveEvent=WinterWonderland". I tried modifying the gameusersettings.ini but no luck there.

 

Edit: After doing some further research based off previous events, it sounds like the server has to have the event coding in the startup.bat file but when doing experimentation in WinSCP, I couldn't find this file. I'm guessing we don't have access to this file.

Hmm, strange. Mine isn't running the event at all despite it being the correct version. I've also heard reports of other unofficial servers having it active. I'm going to tinker with a few things and see if I can find what is causing the conflict. One of them could be the ARKaeology event still being set as active so that's my first priority to disable.

Okay, I got mine working. I'm not sure what was the root fix but I disabled the ARKaeology event and cleared "ActiveEvent=WinterWonderland" from the gameusersettings.ini, restarted the server, did a dino wipe, and it's now fixed.
