[2020] Conan Exiles Dedicated Server Launcher (Official Version: 1.1.2 / Beta: 1.2.3)

Minor update, with a fix for the bug signaled by @FeyWarrior

1.2.2 (14 september 2020)

• Added some proper quoting to allow SteamCMD to run if the Dedicated Server Launcher was installed in a folder containing spaces in the name
  Dedicated Server Launcher 1.2.2

Also added a small entry in the FAQ, regarding the safety of stopping, restarting or upgrading the Dedicated Server Launcher when your server is running:

This is being worked on, hopefully there will be an updated version of the launcher tomorrow or friday.

The next version (tomorrow or friday) will have a selector in the UI to choose the map directly

Nope, it was by design, makes things much easier: One launcher == One game

That does not mean you can’t have multiple games on the same machine, you can have multiple folders, each folder with its own Launcher that handles one game.

The only constraint is that each launcher/game must have its own set of ports, which all need to be properly forwarded on the router.

If you go in the older versions of the launcher (they are all accessible in the Release list on the first post), could you find what is th last version that did work for you? Could you also give me your mod list so I can take a look?

Do you get green lights on the Dedicated Server Launcher if you click on the port testing button?
If yes, have you checked you don’t have a firewall blocking the connections?

There’s normally a FAQ about that, which I realize is out of date and should be fixed since we are not using Steam anymore.

The short answer is that you need to use different ports than the default, the client and game servers should have different ports else they can’t properly access the network.

Try to set 7779, 7780 and 27016 instead of the default 7777, 7778, 27015

Same question as for @rezalas, could you check in one of the earlier version if that did work (like for example try the current 1.1.2 official), so we can see if it’s a regression or not. If it works in 1.1.2 then it means I broke something between 1.1.2 and 1.2.2.

Can you confirm that the mod download was working fine in 1.1.2 and only got broken in the versions after that?

Here is an intermediate version which does not have the part about the map selection, but it should properly handle the Siptah gamedatabase when doing the backups.

1.2.3 (16 september 2020)

• Fixed a crash happening when trying to load older .ini files that did not have a “DedicatedServerLauncherServerAffinityMask” entry set
• Changed the backup code so it can properly handle additional game database files, such as the Siptah DLC one or any additional game db created by players for their own custom maps
  Dedicated Server Launcher 1.2.3

I internally have a version that allows to select between Exiled Lands and Siptah with a combo-selector in the UI, but since there’s been reports of potential issues in the 1.2.x versions, I decided to shelve it until I get confirmation about the issues.

I need confirmation about the following things:

• mod downloads working incorrectly or not
• multihome not working anymore

If there’s indeed a problem, I’d like to know WHEN the problem started, and if you can find in which version of the tool the problem started (all the old releases are still available).

Thanks!
