Launchers not picking up my server

[Liqu1dShadow]

Any idea why an update from 0.2.5.1 to 0.2.5.2 would stop my server being seen in any launchers?

 

Its costing me players with my server not showing up for people to connect to :/

 

Interested to see if any of you guys can find it

ASMG Devils Playground (0.2.5.2|1.36) Chernarus | In AiA Pack

 

Ill be extremely grateful if anyone can help me fix the issue :)

Make sure your only -mod= files are @Epoch;@EpochHive;@AllInArmaTerrainPack;

[Liqu1dShadow]

is that server side? as the Launchers dont pick up the server,

 

in my @START_SERVER.bat file I have

 

@Epoch;@EpochHive;@AllInArmaTerrainPack;

What I've seen through observation with my own servers is that after a restart the servers are not seen in the public list (the ArmA3 server browser) until a player joins it and the server initializes. To test that theory, I would stop my server and restart it. It is not seen in the public list or my A3 launcher. Then I would join the server and play for a bit, exit and look again and it was seen in the public list. You might try adding the -autoinit parameter to your server command line. That should initialize the server after a restart regardless if any player joins it or not.

Yep -autoinit and only those mods...

that should do it...  it took me forever to figure out how to get mine listed... once I removed my @Custom mod it poped right up 30 minutes later...

I have been in the server all day though :/

 

Ill give it a go, would that look like this?

-autoinit;@Epoch;@EpochHive;@AllInArmaTerrainPack;

-autoinit;@Epoch;@EpochHive;@AllInArmaTerrainPack;

 

-mod=@Epoch;@EpochHive;@AllInArmaTerrainPack; -autoinit

[Liqu1dShadow]

:/ its not letting me put that in, tells me there is invalid characters in there and will only let me do this

 

@Epoch;@EpochHive;@AllInArmaTerrainPack;

I don't know then. It works for me. Are those the launch options for your client or server?

[blckeagls]

Here are my launch parameters that work:

 

-port=2302 -server "-profiles=C:\Arma3\A3Master" -skipIntro -nosplash -enableHT -maxMem=2047 -cpuCount=8 -exThreads=1 -arma2netdev -config=sc\config.cfg -cfg=sc\basic.cfg -mod=@Epoch;@EpochHive; -autoinit

blckeagles in your post here...

 

 

you state

NOTE: DO NOT USE CUSTOM @MOD FOLDERS, WILL PREVENT SERVER FROM SHOWING ON LAUNCHERS(Like A3LAUNCHER)

 

this is a pic of my servers folder, could this be the issue?

 

[Stranger]

Are you running a Dedi?

[Liqu1dShadow]

no I am renting a GTX server

[1Man]

I'm running a dedi with 2 arma 3 servers with the same issue I heard if you contact maca he will add you to the list so once I get the info I will pass it along

[Liqu1dShadow]

Maca?

Having the same issue, a3 launcher isn't picking up our server

there is your issue... rename folder to @AllInArmaTerrainPack

make sure mod says -mod=@Epoch;@EpochHive;@AllInArmaTerrainPack

[omega13]

Before all that we have some sort of  -autoInit -malloc=tbb4malloc_bi  -mod=@Epoch;@EpochHive;@AllInArmaTerrainPack, should that not be there? there is also some crap after it like name=A3E_Server etc, should that be taken out too?

This is my launch parameters (but im on a dedicated server) 

 

start /HIGH "" arma3server.exe -port=2400 "-profiles=C:\Arma3_2\A3Master"  -server -skipIntro -nosplash -enableHT -maxMem=2047 -cpuCount=8 -exThreads=1 -arma2netdev -config=sc\config.cfg -cfg=sc\basic.cfg -mod=@Epoch;@EpochHive;@AllInArmaTerrainPack -autoinit

Your mod folder needs to be called @AllInArmaTerrainPack

A3Launcher will not show your server if it doesn't have the mod that it provides

[pr0dukt]

GTX auto names it 'AiATerrainPack' unfortunately and it doesn't let you change the name without some ridiculous syntax errors. 

 

All their servers aren't being listed currently. Luckily im in the process of moving the legion servers over to a OVH box. =)

[olmo]

so im hosting my server at gtxgaming to and today I posted a ticket to them telling them the problem probably came from them using the folder @AiATerrainPack

the response I got was as follow

"We can confirm that this is not the cause of the problem..

Best Regards"

is it sure that the problem is coming from the mod folder name ?
