How to Configure Dynamic Weather on Your The Isle Evrima Server
Enable or disable the dynamic weather system on your The Isle Evrima dedicated server using bServerDynamicWeather in Game.ini or the panel toggle.
The Isle Evrima has a dynamic weather system that cycles between clear, rain, fog, and storm conditions. Heavy weather can hurt low-end clients (FPS drops, audio stutter) and some communities prefer a more controlled environment for RP or events.
On XGamingServer, dynamic weather is exposed as a one-click toggle in the Startup tab (ENABLE DYNAMIC WEATHER), or you can edit it manually in Game.ini.
Toggle Dynamic Weather
Stop the server from Console in the XGamingServer Panel.
Open the Startup tab. Find ENABLE DYNAMIC WEATHER and toggle it off (grey) or on (green).
Start the server from Console.
Stop the server.
Open TheIsle/Saved/Config/LinuxServer/Game.ini in Files. Under [/Script/TheIsle.TIGameSession], set:
[/Script/TheIsle.TIGameSession]
bServerDynamicWeather=falseSet to true to re-enable.
Save and start.
The panel toggle and the INI key control the same setting. The panel writes
bServerDynamicWeather=intoGame.inifor you when you flip the switch.
Default Game.ini Snippet
This is what the section looks like on a fresh XGamingServer install (taken directly from a live server):
[/Script/TheIsle.TIGameSession]
ServerName=XGamingServer
MaxPlayerCount=100
MapName=Gateway
bServerDynamicWeather=true
bAllowReplay=false
bEnableHumans=false
bQueueEnabled=true
QueuePort=2466Why Disable Dynamic Weather?
| Reason | Notes |
|---|---|
| Client performance | Heavy storms drop FPS for low-end players |
| RP servers | Unpredictable weather breaks immersion of scripted events |
| PvP tournaments | Removes randomness that affects sight lines and audio |
| Audio sensitivity | Constant rain/thunder is fatiguing for streamers |
Verify the Setting Took Effect
After restart, watch for at least one in-game day-night cycle. If bServerDynamicWeather=false is correctly applied, the sky stays in whatever state it booted into and never changes.
