Thorium Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 Finally i got a public version of my tool out. It's called ATLR and it can relay the tribe logs of a server to Discord channels. It's a web alarm replacement that will post the whole tribe log instead of just a few events. Download: https://www.catbit.biz/atlr/atlr_v1.05.zip I accept donations via PayPal. Donations are not required, ATLR is completely free. But i appreciate any amount you want to give to the project. Donate via PayPal It's for windows only. If you need it for Linux and can help me to get it running on Linux. Drop me a message. I can compile it for Linux, but i am not familiar with it. It reads the tribe files on the server, so you need to run it on the server, you can't use it with hosts like Nitrado. If people are interested i can build in a RCON mode to make it work with hosted servers. However you would need to enable logging tribe logs to RCON. The file based system is simple, reliable and takes very little system resources. So i would recommend keep using it, if possible. The tool does not need admin privileges. It just needs read access to the tribe files you specify, to the ATLR.ini and to the keyword file you specify. Also it needs to connect to the Discord webhooks you specify. You can also join my Discord for updates and help: https://discord.gg/MrmRngn Configuration is done using a .ini file. Just watch the video below: (Since the video was been made a lot of features was been added. I will write a complete documentation in the next few days.) FAQ Does it work on official servers? No Does it work on hosters like Nitrado? Currently no. I wanted to implement a RCON mode, but since it does not support Unicode (no special characters) and has a number of problems i am thinking about making it more suitable for hosters to integrate in their servers. There are some features still missing before i try to pitch it to some hosting companies. Do you take feature requests? Yes, join my Discord server and post your suggestion in the channel #atlr_discussion I have a problem getting it to work on my server, can you help me? Yes, join my Discord server and ask your questions in the channel #atlr_discussion. You can also write directly to me on Discord. How is ATLR licensed? It is licensed under the MIT license. Can i monetize on ATLR as a paid feature on my server? Yes. ATLR is licensed under the MIT license, which means you can do as you please with it, however i am not responsible for any problems it causes. Do you take donations? Yes, i accept donations via PayPal. Donations are not required, ATLR is completely free. But i appreciate any amount you want to give to the project.

Thorium Posted February 19, 2018 Author Share Posted February 19, 2018 Update v0.06 added: option to ignore modify date on tribe files, only use it if you encounter problems about tribe logs not being loaded added: auto correction of file name extension of tribe files, prevents selecting backup files added: option to post ATLR status to discord channel added: updater with auto update function, auto update is disabled by default The auto updater is disabled by default, check .ini settings if you want to enable it. You can also run Updater.exe to perform an update manually. However it will not shut down your running ATLR instances, so shut them down before running the Updater, or enable auto updates. For the updater to work, Update.exe needs write access to the ATLR folder and the Update subfolder. New .ini options: IgnoreFileModifyDate Set to True to enable ignoring of modify date of the tribe files. This can help in some cases if you deal with day time changes or weird cache issues. I recommend keeping it at False and only change to True if you encounter problems about the tribe logs not being loaded. This will make ATLR load all tribe files on every update cycle. AutoCorrectTribeFileExtension Set to False to disable the auto correction of the tribe file name extension. The option prevents some cases of wrongly selected files. Only set to False if you want to link to a file not ending in .arktribe. StatusNotifyDiscord Set to True to enable ATLR to post it's status to a Discord channel. Status messages include: "ATLR running", "ATLR stopped", "ATLR updating" and "New ATLR update available." For the update messages to appear, auto update needs to be enabled. StatusMention Who do you want to notify on ATLR status changes, for example @everyone. If empty no notification will be generated. StatusDiscordWebhook The webhook status changes will be posted to. EnableAutoUpdate Set to True to enable the automatic update. This is disabled by default. If enabled ATLR will check for new updates and downloads them automatically. AutoUpdateInterval Interval in minutes ATLR should check for new updates. AutoUpdateOnlyCheck Set to True if you want ATLR only to check for new updates and notify you by posting to Discord. Will not download updates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fixes tribe log black out during auto update. added: regular expression filter for mentioning, use RegEx on MentionMethode, uses MentionRegExListFile added: option to post change log to Discord after auto update To get the update, wait for the auto update to trigger (if you enabled it) or shut down ATLR and run Updater.exe, or download the updated .zip in the first post.

New .ini options: Settings SectionFilterKeywordListFile Text file name with keywords that ATLR should use to remove entries from the tribe log (clutter removal)FilterRegExListFile Text file name with regular expressions that ATLR should use to remove entries from the tribe log (clutter removal) Updater SectionEnableAutoUpdateOnIncompatibility Set to True if you have auto updates disabled but want ATLR to turn on auto updates if it detects that it's no longer compatible to the current ARK server version. This is the case if the tribe file format changes. Use this option if you only want ATLR to auto update on emergency. Relay SectionFilterMethod The method ATLR should use to remove entries from the tribe log for clutter removal. Works analog to MentionMethod. Can be Nothing, Everything, Keywords or RegExFilterMode Tells ATLR if filtered tribe log entries should be included or excluded. Can be Include or Exclude.

Thorium Posted February 23, 2018 Author Share Posted February 23, 2018 Update v0.09 fixed: memory leak To get the update, wait for the auto update to trigger (if you enabled it) or shut down ATLR and run Updater.exe, or download the updated .zip in the first post. Highly recommended to update to v0.09 because of memory leak dating back to v0.01! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorium Posted February 26, 2018 Author Share Posted February 26, 2018 Update v0.10 changed: Relay entries no longer need numbering in .ini.

New .ini options: Settings SectionAutoConfigRelays Set to False if you don't want ATLR to automatically add new tribe log relays. If set to True and servers are configurated in Server sections then ATLR will scan the save directories of the servers for new tribe files and will create relay sections for them on base of the tribe files and template relay. AdminRelay Section Analog to Relay sections but will relay all tribes logs from all other relays to one discord channel. This is usefull for admins monitoring the server, especialy with auto relay config enabled. Relays created by the auto config will relay to the admin relay without any further configuration needed. TemplateRelay Section A template for new relay entries. For your reference when adding new relays. Also used by the auto config as default values for automatically created relays. TemplateServer Section A template for new server entries. For your reference when adding new servers. Server Section Create new server sections if you want to add servers to the auto config.Name The name of the Server.Path The path of the Server. Only set to server root, ATLR will add the save path.

Thorium Posted March 20, 2018 Author Share Posted March 20, 2018 I want to inform you that i will add a mode for official servers. I got asked about it and it is possible and in private circles actually existing for a long time. This will come with some restrictions: If Wildcard want's me to take it down or stop developing this mode i will do so! I will not circumvent any anti-cheat mechanisms and will not take responsibility for your account getting banned! It will be publicly available for free, the very reason i do this is to help level the playing field for some tribes that do not have access to such resources. It will not read any information that you can't access by looking at the tribe log in game. No steam id's of players or any none tribe log data will be read. You will need to have a character logged in on the server you want to monitor your tribe log and the tool has to run on that client. I am not having a time frame for it right now. You can follow the development on my discord, linked in the first post or you can also follow me on Twitter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the last version as far as features are concerned. There will still be bug fix updates, if needed. There may be a version 2 if ARK 2 comes or more extensive features are required. But i feel it's in a good spot now for what it is intended for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
