**Purpose**:
|
||||
This document outlines some of the prerequisites as well as deployment process for an ARK: Survival Ascended Server
|
||||
|
||||
## Prerequisites
|
||||
We need to install the Visual C++ Redistributable for both x86 and x64
|
||||
|
||||
- [Download Visual C++ Redistributable (x64)](https://aka.ms/vs/17/release/vc_redist.x64.exe)
|
||||
- [Download Visual C++ Redistributable (x86)](https://aka.ms/vs/17/release/vc_redist.x86.exe)
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Run Unreal Engine Certificate Trust Script
|
||||
There is an issue where if you run a dedicated server, part of that requires API access to Epic Games and that will not work without installing a few certificates. The original Github page can be found [here](https://github.com/Ch4r0ne/UnrealEngine_Dedicated_Server_Install_CA/tree/main), which details the reason for it in more detail.
|
||||
|
||||
!!! note "Run as Administrator"
|
||||
You need to run the command as an administrator. This command will download the script automatically and temporarily bypass the script execution policy to run the script:
|
||||
```
|
||||
PowerShell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Command "irm 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Ch4r0ne/UnrealEngine_Dedicated_Server_Install_CA/main/Install_Certificate.ps1' | iex"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## SteamCMD Deployment Script
|
||||
You will need to make a folder somewhere on the computer, such as the desktop, and name it something like "ARK Updater", then put the following script into it. You will need to run this script before you can proceed to the next step.
|
||||
|
||||
```jsx title="C:\Users\nicole.rappe\Desktop\ARK_Updater\Update_Server.bat"
|
||||
@echo off
|
||||
set STEAMCMDDIR="C:\SteamCMD\"
|
||||
set SERVERDIR="C:\ASAServer\"
|
||||
set ARKAPPID=2430930
|
||||
cd /d %STEAMCMDDIR%
|
||||
del steamcmd.exe
|
||||
timeout /t 5 /nobreak
|
||||
curl -o steamcmd.zip https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/client/installer/steamcmd.zip
|
||||
powershell Expand-Archive -Path .\steamcmd.zip -DestinationPath .\
|
||||
start "" /wait steamcmd.exe +force_install_dir "%SERVERDIR%" +login anonymous +app_update %ARKAPPID% validate +quit
|
||||
exit
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Launch Script
|
||||
Now you need to configure a launch script to actually start the dedicated server. This can be placed anywhere, but I suggest putting it into `C:\asaserver\ShooterGame\Saved` along with the world save data.
|
||||
|
||||
```jsx title="C:\asaserver\ShooterGame\Saved\Launch_Server.bat"
|
||||
@echo off
|
||||
start C:\asaserver\ShooterGame\Binaries\Win64\ArkAscendedServer.exe ScorchedEarth_WP?listen?SessionName=BunnyLab?Port=7777?QueryPort=27015?ServerPassword=SomethingSecure?ServerAdminPassword=SomethingVerySecure -WinLiveMaxPlayers=50 -log -crossplay-enable-pc -crossplay-enable-wingdk -mods=928548,928621,928597,928818,929543,937546,930684,930404,940022,941697,930851,948051,932365,929420,967786,930494
|
||||
exit
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
!!! tip "Adding Mods"
|
||||
When you are adding mods, you will notice they are found on [CurseForge](https://www.curseforge.com/ark-survival-ascended). When you are looking for the mod ID, it is actually listed under CurseForge as the `Project ID`. Just copy that number and put it in a comma-separated list such as what is seen in the example above.
|
||||
|
||||
## Dump Configuration .ini Files
|
||||
At this point, you will want to launch the server and have someone join it so it can generate the necessary world files / configuration data. Then you will run the following commands in the console (from the server hosting the ARK server) in order to dump the configuration (ini) files to disk.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
enablecheats <AdminPassword>
|
||||
cheat SaveWorld
|
||||
cheat DoExit
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You will find the dumped configuration files at `C:\asaserver\ShooterGame\Saved\Config\WindowsServer`. The files you care about are `Game.ini` and `GameUserSettings.ini`.
|
||||
|
||||
!!! warning "Do not modify while server is running"
|
||||
If you modify these configuration files while the server is running, it will overwrite the values when the server is stopped again. Be sure to either set the variables in-game via the console so it dumps them to disk, or wait until the server is stopped to make configuration ini file changes.
|
||||
|
||||
!!! info "Optional: Generate Files from Singleplayer World"
|
||||
You may want to start a singleplayer world and set all of the configuration variables to your desired values, then load into the world. Once you have made landfall, quit out of the game to shut down the singleplayer world.
|
||||
|
||||
From this point, you can find your `Game.ini` and `GameUserSettings.ini` files in `steamapps\common\ARK Survival Ascended\ShooterGame\Saved\Config\Windows`. Simply copy these two files into your server's configuration folder located at `C:\asaserver\ShooterGame\Saved\Config\WindowsServer` and launch the server.

**Purpose**: Pterodactyl is the open-source game server management panel built with PHP, React, and Go. Designed with security in mind, Pterodactyl runs all game servers in isolated Docker containers while exposing a beautiful and intuitive UI to administrators and users.

|
||||
|
||||
!!! note
|
||||
This documentation assumes you are running Rocky Linux 9.3 or higher.
|
||||
|
||||
**Install EPEL Repository and other tools**:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo yum -y install epel-release curl ca-certificates gnupg
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Add Redis Repository**:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo rpm --import https://packages.redis.io/gpg
|
||||
echo "[redis6]
|
||||
name=Redis 6 repository
|
||||
baseurl=https://packages.redis.io/rpm/6/rhel/8/\$basearch/
|
||||
enabled=1
|
||||
gpgcheck=1
|
||||
gpgkey=https://packages.redis.io/gpg" | sudo tee /etc/yum.repos.d/redis.repo
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Add MariaDB Repository**:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo curl -LsS https://downloads.mariadb.com/MariaDB/mariadb_repo_setup | sudo bash
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Update Repositories List**:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo yum update
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Install Dependencies**:
|
||||
Before installing PHP, check the available PHP versions in your enabled repositories. Install PHP and other dependencies as follows:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo yum -y install php php-{common,cli,gd,mysql,mbstring,bcmath,xml,fpm,curl,zip} mariadb-server nginx tar unzip git redis
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
7. **Installing Composer**:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php
|
||||
sudo mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer
|
||||
chmod +x /usr/local/bin/composer
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This script should work well with Rocky Linux and similar RHEL-based distributions, using `yum` for package management. However, keep in mind that package names and versions may vary between repositories, so you might need to adjust them based on what's available in your system's repositories.

|
||||
|
||||
!!! warning "Launch Script Considerations"
|
||||
- Make a local copy of this script to avoid it being overwritten by steam.
|
||||
- Minimum password length is 5 characters & Password cant be in the server name.
|
||||
- You need to make sure the ports TCP/UDP 2456-2457 is being forwarded to your server through your server VM & firewall.
