Cool more then enough  

Is there any attempts been made to install mods on the container that you know of? Just trying to look for some guides, and can see some for other images/containers but nothing concrete for this one

I've only created the Exile mod Arma3 container, but it should be possible.

This container is just like you run it on bare metal, nothing different.

You my sir, are an absolute legend, been loving the docker containers youve put together so far, and the response time is mad, thank you!

One question with that script, do i only change the workshop id and leave everything else as the same? Like  ${USERNAME} ${PASSWRD}, im assuming it grabs these values from the values already described in the username bits on the config

Really much appreciated!

The fast response times are most certainly because we are in a similar timezone...

Exactly.

 

You only have to fill in your workshop IDs in the script...

I think I've missed that this script will only work after the game files where pulled successfully, so to speak after the first full startup from the dedicated server.

Sure thing, in the first post from this thread or in the CA App on any container from me that is installed on your server.

I did come across an error in the logs from the script being added

Is this script wrong in some way?

Try to remove this:

+@nCSClientRateLimitKbps 50000

 

 

You can also try manually what it says, to do that do the following:

1. Open up a terminal from the container
2. Enter:

   su $USER

3. Copy paste the last line from the script in the terminal

Oh, .sh is missing, so it would be:

${STEAMCMD_DIR}/steamcmd.sh +login ${USERNAME} ${PASSWRD} +force_install_dir ${SERVER_DIR} +app_update ${GAME_ID} +workshop_download_item 1832638103 validate +quit

So i removed the force install bit and it seemed like it was downloading something, but then after doing the success part it put Error! Failed to start downloading item 0.

So that it looks like this:

So it still comes up with the please use force_install_dir before logon, and now fails to install that app due to no subscription?

Yes, this is one of the downsides because I think you have to actually use the APP ID from ArmA3 if you want to install Workshop content and it also needs a valid account supplied with Steam Guard disabled and the game in the account.

At least this is how I think it will work.

I'm really not to sure about the mods...

ah bugger, thats a shame

On 6/4/2022 at 11:44 AM, ich777 said:

Yes, I think so...

 

Also the tmodloader branch is still in place, but I've decided to deprecate it now because this is the third time the developers changed something and the container ultimately breaks.

 

Is this officially deprecated? I understand there's some difficulty because of the tmod devs changing things. Will there be any way to run tmodloader or not anymore?

 

Thanks Ich

Thanks to all! I did it. Created all ARK Maps as Docker (12 Servers + the ARK Managed Server) with MODs on all Servers.

 

Is there also a way to send some Dockers to sleep / or Stop them if they are not in use? And If someone wants to Connect to it start it or maybe have a Webpage with a start button to start the server to use it ?

I‘m not entirely sure about that but I think that‘s how mods work for ArmA3….

 

Please maybe search on Google or your prefered search engine for „Arma3 install workshop content on dedicated linux server“.

 

As said, I‘m not really into modding…
