How can I do this with Steam? With test appid the login is working (my steam name is appears at the bottom), but I can't host a game. " is not a part of session" or other errors something with sockets

dev.epicgames.com/documentation/en-us/unreal-engine/online-subsystem-steam-interface-in-unreal-engine?application_version=5.3 I believe you need to reference this for the question you're asking. Unreal Networking is mostly baked in and you are simply utilizing their systems to optimize and integrate within unreal engine or with other API available to you.

LYRA project not have problem with sync movement? I hear replication epic is bad and better use GMC plugin?

[@KillerSneak]

Lyra isn’t build with replication in mind, lyra is all client based. If you want replication and everything verified by the server you have to build that in yourself.

[@plasid2]

@@KillerSneak So LYRA not have jitter movement problem in multiplayer?

[@SHEESH-be6gh]

Is there a way to make this work using steam subsystem?

I think it's possible, but I have not attempted myself.

I'm using 5.2 lyra, would this not work at all?

[@luong256]

do you have an update? I'm also wondering if this works for 5.2

[@GameDevUE]

​@@luong256moved back to 5.0

[@KierranLT]

Cannot use the browse feature to join the server ?

[@onewolfwolfpack1557]

nope, this video demonstrates simply getting dedicated server to work with lyra while connecting via console or blueprint. I haven't reviewed this video to make sure it works, but this should be what you are looking for. dev.epicgames.com/community/learning/tutorials/l07K/dedicated-server-using-epic-online-services-and-unreal-engine once you set up epic online services appropriately, then you should be able to populate the server browser in lyra. I'll plan on doing this for a video, but haven't had the time, will probably do it within the next month. Good luck !

@@onewolfwolfpack1557 within a month huh

[@onewolfwolfpack1557]

​@@doobPendleton been super busy growing my business which is completely unrelated to game development. Game dev content is currently on standby. Probably a year or two...

[@MG619Day]

Do the clients need to have Lyra starter kit installed to join the dedicated server?

[@onewolfwolfpack1557]

The clients need to run the packaged Game and then use the console command to connect or the blueprint command to connect to the public ipv4 / ipv6 of the pc thats running the packaged Server.

[@MG619Day]

Thanks for your reply I’m about to give this a try

[@MG619Day]

Do you have a link for the GitHub file? I looked it up and it doesn’t appear.

[@onewolfwolfpack1557]

You need to link your github account to epic games account in order to get the Unreal Source Build. Here is a video that explains how to do it. It's covered in the first 2.5 minutes but he uses a method to build that I dont do, I just use Visual Studio, Zip Files from Release and follow the readme on the github page. --------------- kzbin.info/www/bejne/lWi3gqykf8SHqLM

[@whyareless]

How much storage space do you need for the UE5.1 source?

[@onewolfwolfpack1557]

5.1 source folder with Lyra inside of it and Lyra packaged game/server is 245 gb... thats actually surprising to me cause 5.0 was upwards of 500gb if i remember right.

[@whyareless]

@@onewolfwolfpack1557 holy fuck, imma have to get another hard drive. thanks for the quick reply :)

[@袁远-c1t]

Thanks a lot! I tried to follow UE official tutorial but I fialed.
