Did you set validation to "true"?

 

Please turn off validation after the game has be downgraded because otherwise this will slow down the start process from the container and is not recommended at all to leave it at enabled.

crossplay

I really can't help with crossplay since I've only tested if it's working and it's indeed working.

 

Maybe someone else can help with that or you can at least try if everything is working with crossplay since you always can go back to non crossplay.

I have the Validate Installation field blank. According to the log after the Valheim server starts, it states that the game is up to date. It appears to not do anything at all.

If you change the version or better speaking the GAME_ID, you have to set validation to true because the version that you‘ve set it to is older than the current version.

That‘s why you get this message.

 

Set validation to true, let the container start, wait for it to downgrade (look at the logs), after the download finished stop the container, disable validation and then start the container again.

I want to downgrade back to the version of the game what worked with Valheim plus. I changed the GAME_ID field to 896660 -beta 0.213.4 which is the previous version and it didn't downgrade.  

 

Is there a better direction you can point me?

Try putting in the GAME_ID field 896660 -beta default_old

This should roll it back for you... at least until the next stabe patch is released.

 

There was also a Valheim Plus alpha release done through their discord last night / this morning depending on where you are.

 

My challenge at the moment is after rolling the server back to 0.213.4 I can't get it to update to 0.214.2 to test the new plugin version.

If it really doesn‘t want to upgrade stop the container, backup your saves and Backup folder, remove everything in the Valheim directory, do a force update from the container, set the GAME_ID to whatever you need, start the container, wait for it to finish the download, stop the container, copy your save and Backup folder back to the game directory and start the container again.

Hi everyone,

 

i just installed the Valheim Server on unraid and according to https://geekstrom.de/valheim/check/ it's up and running. i did port forwarding and everything following the SPX guide. BUT - i cannot join the server on my xbox and neither my friends. i tried it using the local ip and the dyndns adress (which i used as input https://geekstrom.de/valheim/check/ here). but no chance to connect. do i need to configure anything special that xboxes can connect. Don't have a pc to check unfortunately.

Did you add:

-crossplay

to the GAME_PARAMS in the template?

I am having the same issue. Server works great without -crossplay parameter but doesn't work when -crossplay is added. I was able to confirm that someone else in the Valheim discord had the same issue. Seems like it's unique to this particular docker.

Give me a bit and I will look into that, I have reports of crossplay working just fine for my container.

Sounds good. Please let me know what I can share to help the process. I can tell you the following:

- Container works fine for steam users without the '-crossplay' parameter
- Container does not work for anyone, including steam users when the '-crossplay' parameter is added
- I am using the most up to date unRaid version of your docker as of yesterday afternoon

No issue over here:

 

Please try to connect the server is currently running, as you can see this is indeed a Dedicated Server and crossplay is enabled form the icons right next to the server.

The password is: Docker

 

EDIT: I've created another screenshot here where you can see that I can successful connect with my Steam Account through Playfab (crossplay), sorry I don't have any consoles:

Interestingly, I was able to connect to your server with my xbox, but not my steam deck. I then tested with my server, using both the internal IP and the global IP, and neither steam deck nor xbox was able to connect. Attached is my config:

I've also tested my Deck and I can find the game just fine and connect to it (please note that I'm in the Preview channel).

You have to search by name.

 

Are you sure that you password is at least 6 characters and you don't have any special characters in it?

I can't help what's wrong in your case, everything is looking fine as far as I can tell.

Sorry, I meant my own server.
I was able to connect to yours with xbox but not steam deck.
I was not able to connect to MY server with either device, on either local or global IP.
When I remove the -crossplay argument and change nothing else, I can connect with my steam deck, but not my xbox (expected behaviour)

In case you understood what I meant, I will now try doing name lookup for my own server.

I can confirm the password is 6 characters and has no special characters.

Are your ports forwarfed correctly?

Yes exactly, when you play over Playfab I have reports that it's not visible through the local network anymore, but that's not the case for me.

Interesting. That may be possible, however it doesn't show up anywhere. Either with or without the crossplay flag enabled. Feel free
to search for it yourself, name is "AD87 Mordor"

I think the server may be failing to start up when the -crossplay flag is enabled. How can I see the appropriate logs for that, to share?

@Spectral Force
I believe so, as I was able to connect to it via global IP when the -crossplay flag was not present. I have forwarded port 2456. both UDP and TCP.

Click on the container icon and select Logs.

Why? The template mentions that the game ports are UDP otherwise it would be indicated that they are both TCP and UDP.

Just in an attempt at troubleshooting. I will change it back to UDP only.

No, this is just the default startup message, it looks the same over here too.

 

The last line is only a warning and you see at the first line below the Start Server line that it initialized successfully.

OK. The only strand left I can tug on here is that I can't connect to it with anything if the -crossplay argument is issued. What changes when that happens, and how do I investigate that further?

I would first try to remove the -crossplay option and look into if you can connect with your public IP.

 

I think there is something wrong with the port forwarding.

I was able to, yes

Was someone else outside your network also able to connect?

Do you maybe have some GeoBlocking rules in your Firewall in place?
