My GOODNESS this is FAR better than the tutorials offered by the actual creators of the Gamelift plugin.

Thanks, hoping to remake this though since it's outdated kinda.

Awesome video, thanks for your hard work in laying this out, very informative. Subscribed and liked!!!

Thanks for this! Helped a bunch. For those that have the same problem as me and nothing works in the ubuntu bash because of permission problems, I added [automount] options = "metadata" to /etc/wsl.conf inside the ubuntu bash, exited, ran wsl -t Ubuntu in the command line and restarted ubuntu, and now everything worked without complaining about permissions (including git clone and cmake)

I did have trouble with building the aws-c-event-stream, the include could not find the AwsCFlags, AwsSharedLibSetup, AwsSanitizers. Information I found on the web said "The problem is that include() is not supposed to be used in such way. You need to include AwsCFlags into a project, e.g. into folder cmake and then set CMAKE_MODULE_PATH to local folder so that cmake could find AwsCFlags." Opening CMakeLists.txt in the aws-c-event-stream folder and adding this line right after the comment # Append that generated list to the module search path line 33 fixed it. Here is line... list(APPEND CMAKE_MODULE_PATH "${CMAKE_INSTALL_FULL_LIBDIR}/cmake") Then running cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/aws_deps -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON "./" worked. Hope that helps someone.

Also, the correct way to fix the SSL_R_SHORT_READ not declared error is to replace the line with SSL_R_SHORT_READ with "if (ec == boost::asio::ssl::error::stream_truncated) {" so it actually means and behaves the same. SSL_F_SSL_READ is a completely different thing and might result in undefined behaviour.

I know this is a workflow for Amazon Gamelift but do you think this same process will work for Linode? I’m researching cheaper and more predictable pricing options for my project

@Flopperam

3 жыл бұрын

Hey, I think the process for linode would be simpler if you just want to host a running instance of your dedicated server on a linode server. To do that you would just package your ue4 project as a dedicated server as usual. This video goes over that, kzread.info/dash/bejne/rIKJ2tylaKfJkpc.html. And then you just have to make sure that your linode server has the proper requirements to run the game server program. The only difference between this and gamelift is that this is a more barebones solution whereas gamelift is more managed and can handle things like scaling, authentication, matchmaking and other microservices that you don't have to create yourself. The linode method is more similar to the Amazon ec2 route, both of which are perfectly fine ways to host an unreal engine dedicated server on the cloud and can be advantageous like you said in terms of price and other factors. Unfortunately I don't have a specific guide for linode at the moment but I do want to explore alternate options like that and digitalocean in the future.

Is the directory path you passed in valid?

Has anybody been able to get this to work with the latest sdk? Since Amazon linux servers have glibc 2.17 my current glibc is 2.31 so while it runs locally if fails to startup on Amazon Linux Servers. Is there some extra setup involved in getting a compatible glibc? So After a lot of trail and error using Ubuntu 14.04 in a Virtual Box to build the libaws-cpp-sdk-gamelift-server.so fixed the amazon linux activation failures when trying to build for Unreal 4.25.1

Hey, it has been quite a while since we have done this approach. If possible, I would recommend waiting a day or two because the next part of our updated tutorial series will cover cross compilation for Linux with projects that just contain the GameLift Server SDK. The constant changes of the client sdk cause many new issues, which is the main reason we have moved on to a client service in the form of Amazon API Gateway and AWS Lambda and having clients communicate with that client service using HTTP requests in order to get into games/matches.

I don't understand GameLift, If I created a server and and make it online, how much is cost per each player if they play 730hours per month.... that mean non stop 24/24. does my server only take one instance or each player that connect is an instance ?

@Flopperam

GameLift costs are based on the total amount of time the instances in your fleet are running for. A fleet can have multiple EC2 instances, each running one or more processes of your game server. Let me know if you need any clarification.

I believe you made a type in the cmake command, particularly this part, -DBUILD_ONLY-"gamelift". It should be -DBUILD_ONLY="gamelift" instead. You had a hyphen instead of an equals sign.

Hey, it's been a while since I've made this video but I do plan on remaking this video sometime soon so I will try my best. Following the readme here, github.com/awslabs/aws-c-common, I think it would be better to not do what I did in the video and make a separate directory for the library build. And you would run cmake and make there like so, git clone git@github.com:awslabs/aws-c-common.git aws-c-common mkdir aws-c-common-build cd aws-c-common-build cmake ../aws-c-common make -j 12 make test sudo make install Please let me know if that helps or doesn't. Luckily each repo has some kind of documentation similar to this.

@@christopherlee3755 Just warning you, it may be a while until that updated version comes out. However, I reread your comment and mistakenly thought you couldn't build aws-c-common. For those other libraries you mentioned, my guess, according to this link github.com/awslabs/aws-c-event-stream/issues/21, is that when running cmake you have to pass in the DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH flag. So for example, after installing aws-c-commons according to this readme, github.com/awslabs/aws-c-event-stream, like so, git clone git@github.com:awslabs/aws-c-common.git cmake -S aws-c-common -B aws-c-common/build -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX= sudo make install where you replace with whatever path you want, you would then build checksums like so, git clone git@github.com:awslabs/aws-checksums.git cmake -S aws-checksums -B aws-checksums/build -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX= -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH= sudo make install and event streams like so, git clone git@github.com:awslabs/aws-c-event-stream.git cmake -S aws-c-event-stream -B aws-c-event-stream/build -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX= -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH= sudo make install Let me know if this doesn't work either.
