Zillvr Posted May 25, 2019 Share Posted May 25, 2019 Hello @ChameleonH814, welcome to the forums. There is no betacode to enter. Simply select the returnofthembeta from the betas tab. How to access the Return of Them BETA Branch: Close DST if it is running In Steam click on Library > Games. Scroll down to Don't Starve Together. Right-click, select Properties. Go to the BETAS tab. In the dropdown, select the "returnofthembeta" branch. You may need to restart Steam to see this branch. In that same properties window, go to the Local Files tab and press Verify Integrity Of Game Files. Your game will be updated to the beta version. Run the game and go to Browse Games. You should see servers which are running the beta. Have fun! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willyhoo Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 Dunno if this is a glitch influenced by a mod I have or something else, but it erased ALL my games. @Aurorus had this problem too. Fortunately, I'm too pumped to care. Thanks, Klei! Love ya! I'm super excited to test all this out, it's all I've thought about this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beta has separate save files. when you opt back into your old version, your old save files are still there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This'll get the beta files. I don't use Steam CMD for my dedicated server. Do I need to change something in the worldgen file or somewhere else? Can't seem to get mine to show up Thanks so much!

When you join a beta, it wipes all your save files and starts ya fresh. That's why You're not playing on the same servers anymore! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure what you're using, then, because SteamCMD is just a headless Steam client to obtain files from Valve's depot servers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh sorry, I use a remote hosting service called Nodecraft. They have a basic setup integrated, but it still takes some working knowledge to add mods, .lua's and change worldgen, etc... I have access to all the files, so if you know exactly what gets changed I can roll with that! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may need to ask them to add in that launch parameter to enable the beta for hosting on it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mayaX Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 Is there a target date for getting boats to work with controllers? Right now, if playing with controllers you need to get out of the game, unplug controller, back in, place boat on water, out, plug controller again, move on with life. If your boat is destroyed, the whole process makes it kinda discouraging to build another. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sluggie Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 (edited) If I decide to opt in for the Return of Them beta, will I be able to play on non-beta servers? Is there an option to turn off the beta? I enjoy playing with one of my close friends and they'd rather not opt in, but I still want to be able to play with them. Edit: Figured it out myself, and I also can't delete this post lol. Edited August 3, 2019 by Sluggie Figured it out myself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike23Ua Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 Is there a Beta Branch for Consoles?? Like Minecraft does on Xbox through the Xbox Insider Tab? I’d like to play test new features and provide feedback on them before they’re finalized and pushed out live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, sadly Beta is only for PC since they update it very often and they can't actively work on console betas as they'll require certification from Sony/Microsoft/Nintendo{not that DST has switch version}. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So they removed the beta option due to redundancy. It likely won't be available again until Klei puts out a new update for RoT that needs tested. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scarletdeatht Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 HI! I have restarted steam, my computer and danced around speaking gibberish with the hopes of getting down the beta drop down to show return of them as an option, but all I keep getting is - NONE - Opt out of all beta programs. How do I solve this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
