What gets relayed

What Tunnelcast carries for Unreal Gold

Everything below goes to your Discord channel and the live Portal. Team chat stays in the game.

Chat in both directions

Public chat goes to Discord, and Discord replies appear in game as Discord: <Bjorn> hi. Team chat is never relayed. Players see a notice in game that chat is relayed.

Kills and first blood

Kills, suicides and first blood. Deaths to monsters name the monster.

Joins, leaves and teams

Players joining and leaving, name changes and team switches. Teams are named Red, Blue, Green and Gold.

Match state

Map, game mode and scores for Deathmatch, Team Game, Co-op, DarkMatch and King of the Hill. Co-op reports when a level is completed.

Remote admin

Kick and ban from Discord or the Portal. Bans are stored by the game itself, so they stick.

Live status and the Portal

One Discord message that keeps itself up to date with the server, and a live view of the server in the Tunnelcast Portal.

Setup

What your server needs

A server actor and one config file. Tunnelcast is in closed beta, so start by requesting access.

Requirements

  • Unreal Gold with the OldUnreal 227i patch. It is required: the plugin is built on features 227i added.
  • Write access to the server's System folder.

Install in short

  1. Copy the Tunnelcast packages into the server's System folder.
  2. Link your Discord server and register the game server in the Portal.
  3. Paste the server token into Token= in Tunnelcast.ini.
  4. Add ServerActors=Tunnelcast.TunnelcastServerActor to the server's ini and restart. On Unreal Gold it is not a mutator.

Good to know

What it doesn't do

We'd rather you hear it here than find out on your server.

  • No Capture the Flag and no eliminations: Unreal Gold has no such game modes.
  • Players are identified by IP address.
  • The last level of a co-op campaign doesn't report as completed.
  • Chat sent from the web Portal shows up in game labelled "Discord".
