go to ASM settings, click Get WebApi key, insert the steam WebApi key on ASM and you're good to go.

That error happens because too many people are connected or were connected using annonymous login, so it gets blocked.

thats weird huh
I'm not sure if timeout is the issue, but there isn't much detail so i might as well take a shot in the dark

some of those mods are big. mainly extinction core. Steam CMD will timeout a DL if it is too big.

Here is a link regarding E.core:

Do it at your own risk please :D Sucks steam CMD times out on large downloads, i'm suprised no one has moved it to the Nexus, the Workshop is god awful.

So with this file i just place the ehole folder in the directory? (extracted)
yes. place the extracted content where ever your mods folder is for the server

example:
\Desktop\ASM\Servers\Server5\ShooterGame\Content\Mods

I've only ever done it once and it worked, but as it states in the thread, i'm not responsible if something goes wrong.

Nothing cant really go wrong, server isnt fully set up yet. Just want to know - after i have placed the file in, what do i do? do i add it in ASM or do i just have the other mods on in ASM?

Once you download and extract the mod, it goes into the mods folder whever it is located in ASM (there should be one similar to the path i linked). IF the other mods actually downloaded they should be in that folder as well. Once the mod is placed in that folder there isn't anything else to do but try to "update" mods again and see if ASM recognizes it (should be 817096835)

The only thing i know is that manually adding large mods works but im not sure why the other mods don't install. They should be at least trying to. I hope this made some sense, i don't 100% understand your last post


Edit: one thing to look for is that if you get more errors that extinction core isn't on that list if it was successfully added

But if it says outdated mod will the mod then still work on the server? And ty for helping
That shouldn't be a problem i think. If ASM says there's an outdated mod, updating the mods, which by the way doubles as installing mods, should fix that i believe. The mod shouldn't be outdated since the last time it was updated was October and the links to the files awere updated in November. In any case, updating the mod with ASM button should fix it (in theory at least).

Glad i could help a bit, i had the same frustration after trying to get Annunaki installed over 20 times :) Then i went to download externally and it took less than 5 minutes.
