Hopefully I can explain the remote set up properly.

  • I stopped trying to do this with 2 computers, and am doing it with my main desktop. IF I can get this launching after downloading the game, I will go on from there.
  • In VS, I have a successful Development Server build.
  • Packaged game, successful.
  • I upload the game per your instructions. Upload through my ftp to the website File Manager is successful.
  • I follow your instructions for deploying the new version through the website index.php steps. That deploys successfully.
  • I start the chat server, successful
  • I run the E:_AE2017Dev4.15\02.DevBuild\AtlasExpanseOnline_v0.21\Binaries\Win64\AtlasExpanseOnlineServer.exe, that appears to launch successfully. I did fix an issue where the chat server is now picking up the server connection, I got my IP into the getmmoserver.php, I believe that step was missed yesterday. So the chat server is now picking up the server.
  • I run the launcher, it successfully downloads the game.

Here is where I’m finding issues:

  • When I hit Play, nothing happens.
  • When I try the AtlasExpanseOnline.exe in the \launcher\Game folder it does not launch. Additionally when I go into the downloaded game directory into \binaries\AtlasExpanseOnline.exe, it also does not launch the game there either unless I include -local with a shortcut (which obviously isn’t what we want.)

I am going to upload a new version and will delete said files to ensure the new version comes down successfully. I have also checked my Settings.ini and LauncherSettings.ini multiple times and am not finding any discrepancies.

Lastly I stayed on the 4.15 / 1.9 build as the 4.16 source from UE’s Github keeps having errors in VS I don’t want to deal with right now, I dont mess with any of those files as I’m not a programmer.

Thanks for the assistance. I hope this is helpful information toward troubleshooting. Will keep working on it and let you know if I get any improved results.

UPDATE:

  • Not sure what I did, but when I hit Play it is now launching properly. (Progress! :slight_smile: …)

  • Now it won’t enter the world from character select.

  • I am running this on my desktop, both chat server, game server and client.

  • For some reason the chat server is not seeing the server when I launch it. Still troubleshooting that.

  • So I am going to try putting this on softlayer and see if maybe its my computer that is not letting me enter the game world from character select. Perhaps its an issue with my desktop hosting the server and a game client or something. Will start going through your instructions on hosting this on softlayer. Will update when I get results.

UPDATE2:
Good news, bad news.

  • Softlayer, Chat Server, Game Server, Chat server picking up the game server. Success.

  • Launch the game from launcher, Update patches. Success

  • I can log into character select.

  • I can delete and create characters, and changes are reflected in my database.

  • I can register new accounts, changes reflected in my database.

  • But I cannot enter the game world. Any ideas of what the blocker might be or where to look?

Thank you for your patience and time. :slight_smile:
