RocketMod (LDM) Frequently Asked Questions

This server aims to replicate what originally was the RocketMod discord, hosting a place for people to find help on installing RocketMod, and getting a little more of an instantaneous response as a-pose to the subreddit!

Source: LDM Community Discord by AppleManYT

As of December 20th, 2019, RocketMod creators and maintainers Sven "fr34kyn01535" and Enes Sadık Özbek "Trojaner" stopped maintaining RocketMod. You can read their message here: https://github.com/RocketMod/Rocket/blob/master/Farewell.md

Source: LDM Community Discord by AppleManYT

The r/RocketMod subreddit is currently moderated and maintained by @sharkbound and I, and we have created this Discord to try and rebuild some sort of (faster-than-reddit) communication between developers and users of RocketMod, as even though the project has been abandoned, it is still heavily relied on by the Unturned 3 Server community.

Source: LDM Community Discord by AppleManYT

 

Rocket, later RocketMod started at the end of December 2014.

History

Beginnings

Sven "fr34kyn01535" was initially helping "Kunii" with the kLoader. The kLoader was an experiment that was built on a loose Unturned 2 game hack framework. Technically it consisted of an patcher that would inject new MSIL instructions into the major Unturned game binaries to allow for loading an additonal payload. "Kunii" had no time to put alot of work into this project, so Sven decided to rewrite his attempts in order to launch this as a full fledged plugin loader. "Kunii" left the project in early 2015.

Success

Sven had in mind a big community of plugin creators for Unturned 3 and built the cornerstones of such. Over the years he has created plugin repositories, forums, websites and kept adding new features to RocketMod and his own plugins. RocketMod quickly assimilated all other attempts to "full featured" Unturned 3 extensions by having an easy to understand clean plugin API. Even though we never had a proper documentation, we count over 500 plugins on community websites with a few million downloads. Nelson, the game developer of Unturned quickly liked the idea and supported Sven. Nelson rewrote Unturned 3 to automatically load RocketMod and stopped obfuscation to support plugin developers add new game mechanics themselves. Multiplayer servers quickly went to over 75% adoption rate of RocketMod.

Development

In April 2018 the project had 4 contributors beside Sven, each of them only contributing a single commit. Simon "Freenex1911" and "Zamirathe" were the first plugin developers with a good portfolio of plugins, both were also very helpfull to people in the community forums and supported as moderator. In May, Enes "Trojaner" started commiting to the code, becoming a contributor later that year. He shared the vision of a modular game framework to be reused across different Unity games. We sat together designing the new architecture, introduced dependency injection and decoupled the core components. At one point the community stagnated. Due to the announcement of a new Unturned Game and decreasing interest in community participation we grew tired of adding new features.

Thanks

We want to thank all contributors to RocketMod and its projects, all creators of plugins and the server hosters for the fun time we had with this project.

Notable contributors:

Eco implementation

Documentation

Special thanks

tl;tr

Technically the RocketMod repository was Sven's property. He was the owner of all code in RocketMod.Core, all contributors signed a contract to give up their rights on their contribution. Sven did this to protect the community from early fragmentation and exploitation.

As of today, December 20 2019, Sven resigns as maintainer on all RocketMod repos, setting free all code under the MIT license. Enes will also lay down his work on RocketMod 5. He just finished the first implementation RocketMod 5. Seeing no future in Unturned 3, and having our community consisting of mostly members around that game he also resigns as maintainer.

Sven already started to tear infrastructure that rested on his shoulders. We hope that somebody in the community will continue our efforts. Sven is available for consulation but won't be afilliated in similar projects in the near future.

Go create your own RocketMod, find a new name, build a new team and make multiplayer gaming more enjoyable! Take our ideas and implementations and use them for good. Its all yours.

The Legally Distinct Missile (or LDM) is a fork of Rocket for Unturned maintained by the game developers (SDG) after the resignation of its original community team. Using this fork is recommended because it preserves compatibility, and has fixes for important legacy Rocket issues like multithreading exceptions and teleportation exploits.

Unturned Troubleshooting Frequently Asked Questions

Why do I crash?

If you do not meet the game's recommended system requirements, support is far less guaranteed for your system.

  • Windows 10 is the recommended operating system.
     
  • It is highly recommended to be using a 64-bit OS, with a processor that supports 64-bit.
     
  • If you do not have at least 8 GB of RAM, it will be difficult to play on most maps.
     
  • If you are using a macOS device, it should be macOS High Sierra.
     
  • Make sure your device drivers are updated.
     
  • Make sure you are running the latest version of your operating system.

Verifying the integrity of game files can fix numerous issues. Additionally, having too many mods can also impact performance.

"Game freezes" Crash:

Make sure you meet the recommended system requirements.

"Black/white loading screen" Crash:

  • Make sure your graphics driver is updated.
     
  • If you have a Hybrid GPU, try running the game with your default graphics processor, rather than our integrated graphics card.
     
  • If you use GeForce Experience, make sure it is updated.
     
  • Make sure you have the proper Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributables.

"Can't play large/insane-sized maps" Crash:

Make sure you meet the recommended system requirements.

"mono.dll caused an Access Violation" Crash:

Install, update, or repair your Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package.

If you are using a 64-bit operating system, you should install both the 64-bit and 32-bit packages.

Update 3.25.2.0's "Linking blueprints" Crash:

Go to your Unturned folder, right-click Unturned_BE.exe, open its properties, and set it to run as an administrator.it versions. If you are using a 32-bit operating system, only install the 32-bit version.
 

Steam Overlay doesn't work!
  1. Make sure your firewalls and/or antivirus software is not conflicting with Steam Overlay.
     
  2. Make sure you are not using other overlays that would conflict with Steam Overlay, including various game boosters and Fraps.
     
  3. Make sure that you did not accidentally disable Steam Overlay, globally or per-game.
     
  4. Try running Steam as an administrator, and/or in compatibility mode.
     
  5. Try running the game's executable as an administrator.
     
  6. Try setting GameOverlayUI.exe to run as an administrator.
     
  7. Make sure your device drivers are updated.

If the issue persists, you can try ending the GameOverlayUI process from Task Manager after launching the game.

 

Help! I have BattlEye issues!

I didn't install BattlEye when it asked.

BattlEye is the game's anti-cheat software. It is required to have BattlEye installed if you wish to play on BattlEye-secured servers.

If you did not install BattlEye via the pop-up shown when first launching the game, you can still install it by running its installation batch file. Navigate to…

...\Steam\steamapps\common\Unturned\BattlEye

…and proceed to run the…

Install_BattlEye.bat

…batch file.

"Windows Kernel modification detected."

If the following message appears when you launch the game…

##:##:##: Starting BattlEye Service... ##:##:##: Launching game... ##:##:##: Windows Kernel modification detected. Please repair or reinstall your system. ##:##:##: Failed to launch game.

…then you are most likely using a pirated copy of Windows 7.

If you make a post about this issue, and then either admit to using a pirated operating system or state that you will not be purchasing a legitimate copy of said operating system, your posts may be deleted and your account may be banned. This is in accordance with Steam policy.
 

I have server issues!

Why aren't servers showing up?

If you cannot find any servers, then you need to remove your filters. Especially make sure that the "server name" filter is empty, including of whitespace characters (such as spaces). Afterwards, be sure to click the "Internet" button again.

It says the server isn't on the same version!

Wait for the server to update.

Why does matchmaking fail to find servers?

Some filters that you have set in the server browser/list will carry over into matchmaking.

"The server is missing a custom module your files are using."

Navigate to…

...\Steam\steamapps\common\Unturned\Modules

…and delete everything in the Modules folder.

"The steam anti-cheat servers have stopped working."

Make sure your antivirus software is not conflicting with the game. Temporarily disable it outright, or add the game as an exception. See Programs Which May Interfere with Steam for more information.

Run Unturned_BE.exe with Administrator privileges.

 

No volume – I cannot hear the game!
  1. Try checking your in-game volume settings.
     
  2. Make sure your speakers or headset is turned on.
     
  3. Make sure you did not mute your speakers or headset (from the Volume Mixer).
     
  4. Make sure you did not mute the game (from the Volume Mixer).

If none of that works, and your computer's volume is on, then it might be an issue with your speakers. You could try checking your audio drivers.
 

Accidentally set the wrong UI scale or resolution:

Edit the following file:
 

...\Steam\userdata\...\304930\remote\Settings\Graphics.json


By default, "UserInterfaceScale" should be set to "1", and "Resolution" should be set to your monitor's native resolution.

 

How often can I get random playtime drops?

During certain time-limited events, you can get a random playtime drop every three days. These items can be of common or uncommon rarity.
