Night of the Dead News

We start the test of the dedicated server.
I'm sorry it took so long.
I hope many users participate.
Thank you!



Prerequisites
64-bit Windows
Steam client
SteamCMD

Install

• Install SteamCMD on your host.
  
• Launch SteamCMD on your host and use it to download the server files.(Remove the < > and replace them with double quotes, for example, force_install_dir "C:\NOTDServer")
  (app id : 1420710)
  
  
• Steam> login anonymous
  
• Steam> force_install_dir

• Steam> exit
  

Port
We basically use the two ports below.
UDP 27015 : Game query port
UDP 7777 : Game client port

Set the ports as an exception in the firewall.
Open these ports through Port-Forwarding.

If you would like to change the port you are using, the next step will explain how to change the port.

Host

1. In the installed folder, open "ServerSettings.ini" to edit as desired.
   Please change the default in each section to the desired value.
   for example :
   [ServerSettings]
   ServerName=MyServerName
   [SystemSettings]
   SaveName=MySave
   [GameSettings]
   Difficulty=Legend
   NoTeamKill=True
   
   
2. Run StartServer.bat
   a. (Optional) If you want, you can edit StartServer.bat to change which port you use.(for example : LF\Binaries\Win64\LFServer.exe ?listen -log -Port=7779 -QueryPort=27016)
   
   
3. Save file location : \LF\Saved\SaveGames
   You can save and load the save file by matching SaveName (in [SystemSettings]) and the save in the above location.
   

Play

1. Join to the dedicated server session requires same version of the server and client.
   
2. Select server_test Branch from the SteamLibrary->Night of the dead->Properties->BETAS.
   (Select beta you would like to opt into : server_test)

Notice - Dedicated Server

Hello!!!
First of all, thanks to our users, we can continue to develop games.
Thank you very much.
We are working on multiplayer as a top priority.
We are currently in the process of applying the dedicated server to the game.
In about two weeks, we will conduct a beta-branch test of the dedicated server.
And after a test period of one to two weeks, we will officially apply it.
If the Dedicated Server works reliably, we will continue to add new content by proceeding with 1.1.0 patches.
I'm very sorry for the slow patch.
Thank you!
