    You only need to use force_install_dir if you want to change the install location.

    are you talking dev or normal?

    I don't see anything pushed yet. I think we may very well see an update today and it looks like it is going to be a major update based on the code size of the developmental updates this week.

    Typically Wulf jumps ALL over the updates in a very timely manner.

    cool thanks...I don't know how I missed it...lol.

    Client hasn't been updated yet, though?

    Did you see a protocol ++ with this update? That usually means forced wipe.

    Both have been updated. Only reason I knew server needed update cause when I logged into Rust, it said incompatible versions. ;-) Yes, I believe it's a forced wipe, they changed how trees work, and some of the rocks also

    A build for Rust server v1 is now available: https://github.com/github.com/OxideMod/Snapshots/v1

    As you may have noticed, the version is back to 1... We'll be coming up with our own versioning scheme (likely dated) most likely since the Facepunch versioning has been a bit erratic and unreliable.

    Keep in mind that some plugins may not work 100% due to Rust changes. If you notice any issues with hooks, please let us know and @thomasfn will take a look when he's able. Thanks!

    steamcmd.exe
    login anonymous
    force_install_dir c:/rust
    app_update 258550

    Make a start.bat file with:
    Code:
    @echo off
set IDENTITY="myserver"
RustDedicated.exe -batchmode +server.hostname "My Server" +server.port 28015 +server.identity "%IDENTITY%" +server.maxplayers 20 -cfg "server/%IDENTITY%/cfg/server.cfg" -load "server/%IDENTITY%/save/0.sav" -logFile "server/%IDENTITY%/logs/rust_%DATE:~-7,2%-%DATE:~-10,2%-%DATE:~-4,4%.txt"
    Change "myserver" and "My Server" to something you'd like.

    Run with start.bat.

    You don't have it where RustDedicated.exe is. Put it in the same folder.

    Works fine, just the Death Message API seems to be changed, but i guess thats plugin stuff and nothing related to oxide.
