Bug Description:
I’m going to try to explain my issues with the DedicatedServerLauncher since Chapter 4 launch
SOME BACKGROUND:
I was running Conan Exiles - DedicatedServerLauncher 1.7.2 for months
I would double click on the DedicatedServerLauncher1702
Everything would run fine
Awesome
UPDATE TO DedicatedServerLauncher 1.7.5:
- I then updated to DedicatedServerLauncher 1.7.5
- I double click on the DedicatedServerLauncher1705 It would repeatedly shut down
- I dug around the directories found C:\Exiles Server\DedicatedServerLauncher\ConanExilesDedicatedServer\ConanSandbox\Binaries\Win64\ConanSandboxServer-Win64-Shiping.exe. and C:\Exiles Server\DedicatedServerLauncher\ConanExilesDedicatedServer\ConanSandboxServer.exe
- Since running the DedicatedServerLauncher1705 caused the server to shut down, I kept the UI open for the DedicatedServer and tried (on a whim because I dont know what I am doing really) to just run the ConanSandboxServer.exe. Ok! Problem seemed to be solved. Server shut downs stopped and I was able to take this odd path to play for months.
FLASH FORWARD TO CHAPTER 4 LAUNCH:
- Patch installed. Time to play.
- Following the process above I began recieving the following message when attempting to login to my dedicated server: “Outdated Client - The match you are trying to join is running an incompatible version of the game. Please try upgrading your game version.”
- So I thought I would update my dedicated server to Conan Exiles - DedicatedServerLauncher 1.7.7 - Live
UPDATE TO DedicatedServerLauncher 1.7.7:
- 1.7.7 displays the path to the sever exe as C:\Exiles Server\DedicatedServerLauncher\ConanExilesDedicatedServer\ConanSandbox\Binaries\Win64\ConanSandboxServer-Win64-Shiping.exe.
- If ConanSandboxServer-Win64-Shiping.exe is run, it causes the server to shut down
- Trying my old trick/fix of running ConanSandboxServer.exe caused the server to not shut down but login attempts continue to give me “Outdated Client - The match you are trying to join is running an incompatible version of the game. Please try upgrading your game version.”
THINGS I HAVE TRIED TO DO TO TRY TO FIX THE ISSUE:
- Verified game files - success
- Disabled mods, pulled them in 1x1, monitored discords and updated mods as they were announced gone through each mod all on a local game - local games run perfectly (Except one mod which I’ve stopped using until the update for it comes)
I don’t see anything that shows me how to actually Upgrade the Game Version. All files have been verified since the patch and everything runs right locally with all the patch content and updates. It is SPECIFICALLY the dedicated server that is causing this and I don’t know how to upgrade outside of doing all that I’ve listed above.
Should I save my game file. Uninstall everything, reinstall and hope that works? I am really hoping for some help from someone here.
