Multiplayer 2.0 Issues

Hi.

I have gone through all of the tutorials more than once, read almost any thread here trying to figure out my issues.

With that being said, I am really struggling with the first set-up and having my system work with Multiplayer 2.0

Issue #1 - MockVmAgent

When running MockVmAgent, I have the following output:

PS C:\MockAgent> ./MockVmAgent.exe
Warning: SessionCookie is not specified.
TitleId: D6029
BuildId: 35f7f22d-9af3-4999-9e5b-d83c7e6a8d55

      Waiting for heartbeats from the game server.....
PS C:\MockAgent>

After "Waiting for heartbeats from the game server...." it instantly quits (I think?) the application, thus not having the VmAgent active anymore..

Issue #2 - GameServer SDK Running

Well, basically, I figured out how to add the GSDK to Unity (using Assets/Plugins DLL).

Right after that, I tried to run the server (through Unity) and I am receiving the following error:

GSDKInitializationException: GSDK file -  not found
Microsoft.Playfab.Gaming.GSDK.CSharp.InternalSdk.GetConfiguration () (at <57088a1809274f85bfac6388ff18bf34>:0)
Microsoft.Playfab.Gaming.GSDK.CSharp.InternalSdk.Start (System.Boolean debugLogs) (at <57088a1809274f85bfac6388ff18bf34>:0)
Microsoft.Playfab.Gaming.GSDK.CSharp.GameserverSDK.LogMessage (System.String message) (at <57088a1809274f85bfac6388ff18bf34>:0)
Microsoft.Playfab.Gaming.GSDK.CSharp.server_init.Start () (at Assets/Scripts/GSDK/server_init.cs:39)

By my understanding the GSDK file should be set as an env var when the VmAgent is running the Game Server itself? And if so, how would I achieve that? Is it not possible to run the server through Unity?

Do I need to start it using PowerShell, like one of the quick start tutorials ?

PLEASE READ!

I can't seem to edit the post for some reason so I am adding information here:

Issue #2 was solved! It seems like I ran it through the PowerShell, which did not present and output any errors, instead, just quit the application.

When running the Agents' standalone MockVmAgent.exe I received an error information about my issue and was able to fix that (It seems like it needed UnityPlayer.dll to run).

Now I have another issue, let's call it #3.

Issue #3 - Game Server Error - Cannot read configuration file gsdkConfig.json

It seems like the game server receives the gsdkConfig.json file path from the VmAgent, but cannot read it for some odd reason.

Attached is the error log file.

TL;DR:

Got Exception: Microsoft.Playfab.Gaming.GSDK.CSharp.GSDKInitializationException: Cannot read configuration file c:\output\PlayFabVmAgentOutput\2019-10-20T00-31-03\Config\SH0\gsdkConfig.json ---> System.PlatformNotSupportedException: Operation is not supported on this platform.

By referring to Issue #2 was solved, I was actually meaning to say #1.

So current issues:

#2, #3

Hi @Nisan Bahar,

Looks like GSDK may have some incompatible issues with Unity, you might want to use the Unity-specific GSDK as Brandon suggested:

You might want to consider trying it with the updated Unity-specific GSDK:

This seams to be the only thread about the Unity-specific GSDK on all the internet, that is so sad :(. Anyway, I'm also trying to run my headless server made with unity3d using this Unity-specific GSDK but when I run it, it complains about the missing GSDK_CONFIG_FILE environment variable. What I m missing here guys?? because the configuration file is generated dynamically this GSDK_CONFIG_FILE shouldn't also be setup?
