I noticed differences in the display of the window frame. (see screenshot).

The size differs in two dimensions. The bottom size may be rounded up, but that's not essential for precision

advantageous. You can also see the white writing much better.

if you point your mouse on the object you want the height to match it will match it, then lock it with CTRL and move it around with arrows , if you point the mouse on the ground it often changes height that can be a pain in unity if you don't notice at first but once you know the work around it becomes easy

While it looks OK in a campfire and you may say it looks great But having embers coming out of your chimney sort of defeats the purpose of not setting your roof on fire in reality and some of the reason they were above the roof line so much and cleaned in real.

Having these little animations in game make the game really immersive and enjoyable. Would be nice to be able to animate other things too. Cannot wait until the water animations come in.

When i was a young boy, we used to get the fire going really hot so we could run outside and see lots more embers coming out of your our chimney at night, they looked amazing, so for me this is how we used to see the smoke from our chimneys

so some users are having problems with the GUI not working, this has todo with older versions of java installed

try and update your java version with this one ------> Java-18 download <------

I like the sparks, it makes the smoke look even more real as normal smoke does indeed have them 😉

Hi again

Just so I understand correctly on the first pic the highlighted folders, the RWAutoServerInstallerV4-UI-Java-Edition then over to the RWAutoServerInstallerV4UI-Java.jar this is the one to unzip correct.

Then in the second pic which is what is inside the RWAutoServerInstallerV4UI-Java.jar. Now once extracted which file do I click on to get the ui tool?

no thats wrong, you unzip the folder RWAutoServerInstallerV4-UI-Java-Edition then open the folder and double click on the file RWAutoServerInstallerV4UI-Java to run that program.

Hi Buddy

Got V4 going On your post in between the first GUI/pic and the second GUI/pic you have ---> rising-world.net/attachment/31366/ but that link don't work.

Now for the main question how do I open the GUI boards if that's what they are called.

Thanks Buddy

oh i added a image then removed it, forgot to also remove the link, thats fixed now cheers,

for the gui you unzip the file and then click the RWAutoServerInstallerV4UI-Java <---------- java program, this is the ui tool

Ok i have uploaded the first working UI Server installer for Java RW, it has 3 types of user groups included, the default group for normal players, Admin group for the server Owner, and the Moderator group for server helpers, not much to adjust for the default permissions, but you have full control over the permissions for the Admin group and the Moderator group,

i think by looking at the GUI you can work everything out i hope

once the server starts to install you can close the UI but Dont close any of the blue popup box's at any stage, not even if you think its stopped installing, as sometimes the connections are slow or some box's may say stuff like finished, but its only fully finished once the black server box opens, but the two blue box's left are part of this installer and should always be running

to close the server you can close all 3 box's, but to restart the server you need to click on the StartServer file, if you click anything else the auto backup and auto reboot tools wont be running

i have yet to finish the hints but will get around to it at some stage, for unity ill also make the same type of installer but this takes a lot of time, this project started some days ago, the unity version has driffent types of permission files and lots of things are not the same, so its almost a complete recode, not everything but a lot

if you like or use my installers do let me know, or even if there something you don't like about them, im always keen to improve my work

Thanks 👍

Before your version 4.0 I thought that I will never understand how to install a server. Too many details and technical words which are a book with 7 seals which I will never be able to open.

But now, even I who has never set up any server yet think that I fully understand these screenshots and this looks easy to do, so all my thumps up for this.

Some minor detail questions

The tab "Sever Settings": Shouldn't that read "Server Settings"? Or is this one of the technical things which I don't understand?

The tab "Blue Prints": I would have written it as one word, "Blueprints" similar to the foldername where blueprints are stored, but this is just me (probably)

In the tab "Commands": The second row of commands has some commands not fully aligned with the others above or below. Is this intended, maybe because these are subsettings? If intended, I think those lines should have some additional hints which make it clearer, e.g.

Blabla A

- Subblabla1

- Subblabla2

Blabla B

I remember that when I was an employee I crafted some forms like yours myself (loooong ago), maybe this gave me an eye for such details.

thanks for the feedback, yeah i noticed some of the things you pointed out, they all are indeed going to be fixed, sometimes im tired when i code and do typo's lol

for the line mismatch that's already been solved

Hey guys, so i am working on version 4.0 of my server installer

This new server has a UI for setting up the server before hand, its getting close to completion, see photos,

before im finished is there anything else i should add to help make things easier ?

I've

Ah okay. I thought you meant the object "smoke", not that you are talking about the smoke of a campfire. There was a technical object Smoke in the Java Version that gave you 2 or 3 different types of "smoke" - even if you had no campfire. Just the smoke itself. That is not yet implemented in the Unity version.

The objects from Java do not get transferred to Unity as they seem to be too different. But however in Unity you can resize the objects. You can also hold them in place with ctrl key and then use arrow keys to move them inside your wall/floor/whatever.

I also was thinking he was talking about the smoke only object, I was like why blueprint this oO so your not alone, in the unity version you can resize the fires so small you can hide them in the chimney for a smoke effect, only problem is the light from the fire goes through the blocks and reflects on your roof oO not a big deal and that problem will be fixed so I read on another post.

Like a flag ? I know flags are used in some other games to do this kind of thing.

WOW that made a big difference using the install instead of AutoServerInstaller.bat it started immediately.

Now the only thing that is not working is the worlds, After the installation I took from V1 in the Worlds folder I copied my Australia world folder which contained a worldParts folder and 2 files Autralia.db and ChickenCoops.db.

When I'm watching the server loading where it says LOAD WORLD Australia but when I get in the server the world is new none of my players builds are showing the world is empty so what did I do wrong?

The world name World_Name= <------------ in the server.properties file needs to 100% match your world name or it wont load it, even a space may cause it not to load, example if your world name is Autralia and you do (World_Name=autralia) or (World_Name=Autralia ) or (World_Name= Autralia) it wont work, it needs to be (World_Name=Autralia) <--- no spaces all the same upper and lower causes etc etc

its best to just copy your old server.properties file to the new RisingWorld server install folder, that should be under C:\RW\Java\Server unless you changed the install dir,

happy its now installing 100% for you now you clicked the right file

also AutoServerInstaller.bat is the wrong file to use to install the server!!!!! its the install file like i told you in the other post, this is why Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable (x64) never installled, you clicked the wrong file. click the INSTALL file only

BTW C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\RisingWorld\java\bin <----------- this has nothing todo with the server or any of the files needed, this is the steam folder where steam installed your game too,,

your folder will be on c:\RW\Java or C:\RW\Unity

Hi yahgiggle

I just got around to installing RWAutoServerInstaller V3 java (AutoServerInstaller.bat) All installed great until the black screen (the server) came up but with a popup MSVCR120.dll and MSVCP120.dll was not found.

I checked both files and they are both in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\RisingWorld\java\bin. So why does it say that file was not found.

As soon as I click OK on the popup the black screen goes away.

MSVCR120.dll and MSVCP120.dll files are both from Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable (x64), since you already had the server running, its strange that it would now ask for these files oO

did you uninstall Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable (x64) or is this on a new VM ?

how ever the folder vcredist should have the install program for Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable (x64) <------- inside, you could click it and reinstall it again,

BTW Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable (x64) will download if needed or not, but it will only install if its not already installed on your system

This could be a cool idea, there is nothing stopping you from setting up this type of website, you could have two sections, one for java and the other for unity.

Now Both installers have been upgraded to V3.0, happy server installing
