@Simon_Hypixel @ThatBram0101 @Hytale Any chance you could have a dev look into InteractivelyPickupItemEvent? It looks like a dead event right now which prevents me to add functionality whenever player picks up item.

@ThatBram0101 @Hytale Wow this is crazy!! GG Can’t wait to see what the community does!

Full @Hytale support in MiEx is now here! You can use MiEx to export out Hytale worlds into animation software like Maya, Blender, and others. And it supports mods as well! (When located in the mods folder inside of the world save) Get it here: github.com/BramStoutProdu… #Hytale

@flash_canadian Do you still need help with this? You pretty much just move you singleplayer world folder and memories to your server and then your golden.

Anyone know how I can convert my Hytale single player world with my friends into server so they can play when I’m not online???

@Jamezbower @RuneteriaServer Any idea if something like pandora hallelujah mountains is doable?

The Floati Island World Gen V2 Instance is coming along for @RuneteriaServer Getting the hang of densities and Manual Curves in the Node Editor. Having small tweaks and changes be reflected in real time is making learning this 10x easier. After working on Bedrock Biomes last year, this might be the best blocky game world gen tech out there! #Hytale #HytaleModding @slikey

@Simon_Hypixel I dont agree, i think the current mining mechanic is good but probaply just add a way to get more from a single ore in late game. I really dislike if i try to mine a block and the signature ability blows a hole into the wall.

I need suggestions to make mining in Hytale more satisfying / fun! I’m not happy with it, finding ores or strip mining is not good enough. I’m considering adding signature ability to pickaxes + improving the sounds / visuals of mining.

@Simon_Hypixel isnt it 4:45 am right now for you?

good morning

Emerald Wilds (3 Regions, several biomes) Howling Sands (3 Regions, several biomes) Whisperfrost Frontiers (3 Regions, several biomes) Devastated Lands (2 Regions, several biomes) Regions are a bundle of biomes; we can treat them as "tiers" of difficulty in a way, even though right now, the difficulty is somewhat not that steep between the tiers. Some screenshots of what happens when you discover a new region, see how the Zone is displayed at the top and Region in gold text:

@Simon_Hypixel so ... about the zones ... tell us more 👀the wiki is aching to learn more!!

@Simon_Hypixel @not_mynes @_Hawkon @not_mynes

@not_mynes @_Hawkon What do you mean, the community agreed? this is getting crazy, do you want us to stay transparent our keep quiet with our changes lol

Just like I'm still calling this place "Twitter", I'll always be calling zone 3 "Borea"

@not_mynes @Simon_Hypixel @_Hawkon Just let it be man, its really not that deep. Whenever the game releases thats the state we start with but currently we don’t have a finished game and everything is based on blogposts

@Simon_Hypixel @_Hawkon But if the community had already agreed and liked the concept names (specifically zone 3, I think most are fine with the z1 change), then what's the point of strong arming away from borea

@CottonTheFoxUwU @slikey @theRangerGilan @Hytale GPU doesnt really matter in this case i think, mainly CPU and RAM. But depending on the amount of players 16GB will probaply be fine for you and some friends.

Hytale Server Performance Comparison Yesterday i asked @slikey a question about @Hytale server performance numbers so i could get a rough idea on what the performance would be like compared to Minecraft, since Minecraft's server performance is quite bad especially for larger SMP servers. So let’s compare the performance numbers given by Slikey. I do want to add a big disclaimer here because the game is still in very early development, and as Slikey said himself, he believes the server can be optimized further. Also, I am a fan of Hytale and do not in any way want to bash the server performance. I was just curious how the servers in their current state compare to Minecraft servers. TLDR Hytale’s minimum server specs are likely higher than Minecraft’s for small player counts, but its server software appears to take better advantage of multiple CPU cores. If this holds true, Hytale should scale more efficiently for larger SMPs and minigames as player counts increase. That being said, let’s look into the values. Slikey mentioned that a 3 vCore, 8 GB server can sustain 6-8 people. The first thing I notice with that statement is that he is specifically naming the 3 vCores. In Minecraft, the game is single-threaded and only uses one core. Newer server implementations like Paper do offload some of the work across multiple cores, but still have to deal with the single-core problem. Since Hytale is built by Minecraft devs, who probably know how annoying the single-core problem is for scalability, I have a feeling they may have solved this in some way. Because it’s currently very unclear how the game is built and how it uses multiple cores, it’s kind of hard to make a good prediction based on the vCore value. The value we can use for a prediction is the RAM, though, since RAM is easier to compare than CPU behavior, but still highly workload-dependent. After looking through multiple hosting providers and other sources for their RAM requirements for a 6-8 player count (vanilla Paper), I found that many hosting providers average the amount of RAM used to be between 4-6 GB. This means that default vanilla Minecraft is probably performing better than vanilla Hytale if the load is not very high. I do have a feeling that the testing team ran in different directions to see what the limits would be. The comparison does shift, though, when looking at modded Minecraft servers. Because Hytale is built with modders in mind, I do have a feeling these values should be taken into account. When looking at modded Minecraft servers and their RAM requirements for heavy modding, they average about 8–12 GB. This means that, compared to a modded Minecraft server, the Hytale server might be performing just as well or even better. Later in the tweet, Slikey mentions that on a Ryzen 7950X with 12 GB of RAM, they were able to hit 70 players, which seems like a very good player count for those specs. Looking around, I found that a 12 GB server is normally advised for 30+ players, but I have a feeling that hitting 70 players with 12 GB would be very difficult in Minecraft, especially with mods involved. The exact scenario for these benchmarks is unclear, but the numbers suggest that Hytale’s server software is likely much more scalable than Minecraft, taking better advantage of multiple CPU cores. While the minimum specs are slightly higher than a typical Minecraft server, the ability to handle large player counts is impressive, Hytale servers could scale really well once fully optimized. I hope the Hytale team will share a blog post about server performance, as it would be really interesting to see more detailed data. If not, I’m planning to try running some benchmarks myself on January 13th. Another small disclaimer: This is by no means a thorough benchmark, just some quick research and my thoughts based on available information.

@slikey @Hytale Thanks for the reply! Since the trailer i’ve always been very curious about the server performance because i really like the idea of a giant SMP with a load of players. Thanks for clarifying and good luck with working towards the launch!

Thanks for the writeup. I would like to highlight a post by Nitrado in this screenshot. I do not think I can really provide those server specs. There are way too many different configurations and we don't have a standardized test-scenario. Hytale is too custom and depends on way too many things. Minigame server may easily hit 200+ players with a static world and without NPCs. When you abuse an exploration mode server just right, you can tank it's performance on 8 players or have a playable experience with 50 people depending on what you exactly you do. This whole server hardware conversation simply doesn't have a good answer. Instead of trying to get more and more data, I rather go back to improving server performance and focus on launch. It is not what the community of server hosters wants to hear but: You will have to try it out and see. I do not think I can give you reliable data.

@slikey So will we get some kind of blogpost about the server performance/details before the Early Access or will you guys leave it up to community to get some benchmarks done on the server? Im actually very curious about the performance numbers.

Server Hosting itself will only become available with the Early Access launch. There is some more documentation releasing before launch though to give some best practice for hosting a server yourself or as a server provider but it takes longer than expected due to performance improvements.

Hey @slikey is there anything you guys can say about client hardware and server performance?

@slikey @slikey is there any update on when we get more server details? Or will the server hosting manual be released at the same time as the game?

@RodargDev To be released in the near future . We almost have all the data needed! Just need to finish the analysis for a few metrics.

@Simon_Hypixel Please get @flash_canadian a code brother

We are slowly rolling out the Support a Creators/Modders program. Please be patient; we are processing this manually at the moment. Will reach out to more as we expand our team and open the application process in the coming days!

Hytale pre-purchase starts tomorrow, December 13, around 10:00 AM EST. For the first time, Hytale will be funded directly by the community. ❤️ We’ve got a long road ahead to get Hytale where it needs to be, and soon, you can be part of that journey. Thank you.

@flash_canadian Lmk whenever you get one, think you do have the best content of the current YouTubers so would gladly use it.

@RodargDev Idk yet

@flash_canadian will you have a creator code at launch?

@Simon_Hypixel @slikey Any idea at what time we can purchase Hytale tomorrow?

@Simon_Hypixel @not_mynes @Prowl8413 Any idea then we will get the details on server performance, very curious about it

@not_mynes @Prowl8413 Oh right, gimme a couple mins lol

OK, I took my shot! I sent Simon a list of 10 questions in hopes that he has the time to answer them as a "written interview". He definitely owes me nothing, so I'll be pleasantly surprised if he finds the time to answer it at any point. Lots of gameplay related questions

@Lyall_PD Still very curious about server performance, really hope you guys nailed it, so annoying with Minecraft right now

Since system requirements was one of the most asked questions in the past month, Slikey went ahead and gotten an answer for all of you.
