DAK Installation Help & High Priority Question

0xDECAFBAD0xDECAFBAD Join Date: 2012-11-13 Member: 170467Members
The DAK readme says "This mod can be downloaded via SteamWorkshop, and will autodownload on all clients on connect.
The ModID for DAK is 5f4f178, which you will want to set in the server command line, and in MapCycle.json." I know how to set the -mod command in the command line but I'm not sure how I set up the MapCycle.json file. Second question: Why does the server.exe reset itself to normal priority when I change it to high? Does high priority screw things up so the developers programmed it to reset itself to normal?

Thanks :)

    Installing DAK using that method will flag the server as modded, using the other installation process is currently best as your server will show in the default list :)

    You would want to make sure you add a line to the mapcycle to load any mods like below:
    "mods": [ "5f4f178" ]

    So I should just put it in the command line and leave it out of the map config. It will still run just fine but not mark the server as being modded?

    If you use the modID, you need to set it on the commandline and in the mapcycle.json. Setting the modID will cause your server to be flagged as modded.

    How do I enable it without the modID? I want the server to show up in the default list.
