AGS 3.73.0 Release Notes

Last updated on October 24, 2024

Release date: May 6th, 2024

AccelByte Gaming Services (AGS) Game SDK latest version​

Extend SDK (previously known as Server SDK) latest version​

DSuploader latest version​

  • Armada DS Uploader: 1.6.3

Highlights​

  • [Unity] Added the impacted UserID information in the On Leave, On Invite, and On Kick events.
  • [UE] Added an API to retrieve User Entitlement history.
  • [UE] Added an API to retrieve list of other users who played in the same team and party with the player.

Quality of life changes​

  • Added static configuration support to the Launcher. Now, the Launcher can run without the backend service (odin-config-service) and use the static configuration instead. In order to do that, the JUSTICE_CONF_SERVER environment variable needs to be set as empty. Please contact AccelByte Support for assistance.
  • Improved the overall translation copy across Player Portal, Login Website, and App Launcher.
  • Added the ability to hard delete Leaderboard configurations directly within the Admin Portal. This update is designed to streamline the development process, allowing Game Admins to rapidly reset data and reconfigure leaderboards using the same Leaderboard code. This eliminates the need for adjustments in the game client when pointing to new Leaderboard code, thereby enhancing efficiency and reducing the need for another game client update.
  • The Login Queue page in the Admin Portal now has a Live Monitoring section, which when enabled, will display the following information:
    • User Logged-in
    • Current Login Rate per Second
    • Current Players in the Queue
  • [UE] Added FlightID to the Base Telemetry Event model.
  • [UE] Added DeviceType to the Base Telemetry Event model.
  • [UE] Introduced a new function called FAccelByteUtilities::ValidateTOTP that can be used by dedicated servers to validate a range of time-based one-time passwords (TOTP) based on the server secret and user ID.

Bug Fixes and Minor Changes​

  • Added indexes to improve user progressions endpoint.
  • Fixed user progression endpoint internal query due to unsupported lookup on multiple join conditions.

This is done by passing ${artifact_path} as a command line argument to your dedicated server and making sure that your custom artifacts are emitted to the substituted path. SDK support for this new flag is coming; in the meantime, you will need to parse it manually in your dedicated server code.
