Guest Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 Is there a switch to enable Halloween 2017 on unofficial servers please? Or will it come on by default? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildcard Community Eli Posted October 29, 2017 Wildcard Community Share Posted October 29, 2017 It will likely start automatically after an update, similar to previous Fear Evolved events. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d0h Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 Please update us if there is a switch required or if it is automatically enabled. Last year's christmas event automatically enabled on my clusters I run, but that doesn't mean anything this year... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StevenB Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 There is a beta branch called halloween, I updated my server to it, but only thing that seems to have changed is that the skins are available in the loot drops, days are still long and nights short. No "scary" dinos spawning out of caves either.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kerdil Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 That I know, but my server still seems to host 273.2 version. What I don't know is where should I put this "-beta halloween" line edit: Yeah, found it in your link. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I don't know is where should I put this "-beta halloween" line It's a command line that you enter to your servers launch file (usually a batch file containing all sorts of launch related settings for your server).

Kerdil Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 ok, so if my bat file looks like this: start ShooterGameServer "Ragnarok?SessionName=RagnarokHost?Port=7778?QueryPort=27016" -NoTransferFromFiltering -noTributeDownloads=false -clusterid=Center+SE end then where should I add that line?

Wildcard Community Eli Posted October 30, 2017 Wildcard Community Share Posted October 30, 2017 You can just append the line at the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kerdil Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 nope, not working, still 273.22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wafflez19 Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Try this. Had to do the same thing to my settings. I use steamcmd. So I just had to modify it to reflect "+app_update 376030 -beta halloween {1}" Hope this helps (should really thank the other guy if this helps you. ;D) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmart Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Eli, maybe you should add this information to your topic How to enable Fear Evolved 2017 for unofficial servers. (PC) if you use systemd to start ark , you have to edit /etc/systemd/system/ark-dedicated.service and chane following line from: ExecStartPre=/home/steam/steamcmd +login anonymous +force_install_dir /home/steam/servers/ark +app_update 376030 +quit to ExecStartPre=/home/steam/steamcmd +login anonymous +force_install_dir /home/steam/servers/ark +app_update 376030 -beta halloween +quit then systemctl daemon-reload , edit ini files as mentioned in Eli topic and systemctl start ark-dedicated.service Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've made a sticky thread in general discussion that should offer a little more detail on how to set up your unofficial server for the event.
