The wait is over: UE4SS now runs natively on Linux servers! Palworld server administrators can now use Lua mods and native C++ mods (.so) directly on their Linux dedicated servers – no Wine, no Proton, no workarounds.

What is UE4SS?

UE4SS (Unreal Engine 4/5 Scripting System) is a powerful tool that enables mod loading and scripting on Unreal Engine-based games. Previously, UE4SS was only available for Windows servers. With our Linux Native Port, we are opening the door for all Linux server operators.

Features at a Glance

• Lua Mod Loading: Lua-based mods work directly – no adjustments needed
• LD_PRELOAD Injection: Loaded via LD_PRELOAD, no proxy DLL required
• Per-Mod Crash Recovery: If one mod crashes, others continue to run
• Headless Mode: GUI disabled, optimized for server environments
• Native Linux Crash Dumper: Signal-based crash handling with backtrace

Important: .so instead of .dll

This is a Linux build. It cannot load Windows .dll files. C++ mods must be compiled as native .so files. Lua mods work unchanged. The mod folder for C++ mods on Linux is called libs/ instead of dlls/.

Where to Download

UE4SS Linux is now available on CurseForge:

On our UE4SS Linux info page you will find a detailed installation guide, troubleshooting tips, and all details about features and limitations.

Summary

For questions or issues, check our support section or join our Discord server!

Dear community,

ab sofort gibt es ein überarbeitetes Spenden-System auf rl-dev.de. Vielen Dank an alle, die unsere Server- und Hardware-Kosten unterstützen!

Was ist neu?

• Discord Spender-Rolle: Wer spendet, bekommt automatisch die Spender-Rolle auf unserem Discord-Server zugewiesen – sofern die Discord-Daten beim Bezahlen angegeben wurden.
• Donation Paket für Palworld: Spender erhalten ein kleines Ingame-Paket für unseren Palworld-Server, sofern sie dort aktiv spielen.
• Monatliche Spender-Liste: Im Discord-Embed und auf der Homepage wird eine aktuelle Liste aller Spender des Monats angezeigt.
• Discord-ID optional: Ihr könnt beim Spenden optional euren Discord-Namen oder eure Discord-ID hinterlassen. Wer das nicht macht, landet als „Anonym“ in der Liste, kann sich aber nachträglich per Ticket zuordnen lassen.

Mögliche Fehler

Das System ist frisch eingebaut. Es kann daher noch zu kleineren Fehlern kommen, z.B. bei der automatischen Rollenvergabe oder der Anzeige im Discord-Embed.

Solltet ihr Problemen haben – zum Beispiel wenn eure Spende nicht korrekt zugeordnet wurde oder eure Discord-Rolle fehlt – schreibt bitte direkt ein Ticket. Ich kümmere mich so schnell wie möglich darum, sobald ich von der Arbeit zu Hause bin.

Vielen lieben Dank für eure Unterstützung! 💜

Euer Xarmina / rl-dev.de Team

Hello everyone! 👋

To make sure our Palworld Discord server is well taken care of even when I'm at work or don't have time, I'm looking for dedicated supporters who want to help the team.

The best part: About 80% of the tasks can be done easily through my Discord bot. So you don't have to moderate manually all the time — many features like support, management, and other processes are already handled by the bot.

Your tasks would include:

• Answering questions from members
• Helping with problems or small concerns
• Welcoming and supporting new players
• Using the Discord bot for support and management tasks
• Contributing to a friendly and pleasant atmosphere on the server

It's important to me that our community always has a contact person — even if I'm not online or working. That way, someone is always there to help.

You should bring:

• Friendliness and willingness to help
• Some time and activity on Discord
• Interest in Palworld and our community
• Reliability and respectful behavior

If you'd like to support our team and help grow the community, feel free to send a direct message or open a ticket.

I'm looking forward to your applications and thank you in advance for your support! 💙

Die Band The Outpace aus Düsseldorf und Wuppertal ist ab sofort auch unter der brandneuen Domain https://theoutpace.rocks/ erreichbar. Wer die Band bisher über ihre alte Adresse gefunden hat, wird feststellen: Alles funktioniert wie gewohnt – nur dass der Weg dorthin jetzt einprägsamer ist und einfach besser zur Musik passt.

🎸 Eine Domain, die knallt

Die Wahl der .rocks-Endung ist alles andere als zufällig. The Outpace spielen Rock'n'Roll mit der rohen Energie des Punk und der Wucht des Hard Rock – da muss die Webadresse natürlich mitspielen. theoutpace.rocks ist kurz, prägnant und bleibt sofort im Kopf. Genau das, was eine Band sich wünscht, wenn Fans sie im Netz suchen.

🎤 Wer steckt hinter The Outpace?

The Outpace sind ein Powertrio aus der Düsseldorfer und Wuppertaler Szene, das für laute, dreckige und direkte Rockmusik steht. Die Band besteht aus:

• der Wagner – Bass & Backing Vocals (Riffs so rau wie rostiges Metall)
• Lee – Gitarre & Lead Vocals (Das tiefe Fundament)
• Bemoll – Schlagzeug (Der treibende Puls)

Drei Musiker, drei Charaktere, ein Sound: raues Gitarrenriffing, Punk-Attitüde und Heavy-Metal-Wucht. Wer live dabei war, weiß, dass diese Band keine Kompromisse macht.

🌐 Was gibt es auf der neuen Website?

Unter theoutpace.rocks finden Fans alles, was das Herz begehrt:

• News – Aktuelle Updates rund um die Band
• Events – Kommende Konzerte und eine interaktive Tour Map
• Musik – Alle Releases auf einen Blick
• Videos – Musikvideos und Live-Mitschnitte
• Galerie – Bilder von Shows und hinter den Kulissen
• Merch – Band-T-Shirts und mehr
• Band-Info & FAQ – Alles über die Musiker und ihre Geschichte
• Press Kit – Material für Journalisten und Veranstalter
• Gästebuch & Kontakt – Direkter Draht zur Band

Die Seite ist zudem zweisprachig (Deutsch/Englisch) verfügbar und bietet einen Login-Bereich sowie einen Warenkorb für Merch-Einkäufe.

📅 Live erleben

The Outpace stehen in der Pipeline mit einigen heißen Shows:

• Television Sect + The Outpace – Freak Show, Essen
• The Outpace feat. The DeRellas – Pauls Savanne-Osterath, Meerbusch
• 11. Güterbahnhof Festival 2027 (Tag 1/3) – Hafenstr. 64, Münster

Wer die Band live erleben will, sollte sich die Termine nicht entgehen lassen. Alle Details und weitere Shows gibt es unter theoutpace.rocks/events.

🎵 Der aktuelle Release: "Don't Look Back"

Mit "Don't Look Back" haben The Outpace einen kräftigen Marker gesetzt. Der Track steht für alles, was die Band ausmacht: nach vorne schauen, Gas geben, nicht zurückblicken. Wer ihn noch nicht gehört hat, findet ihn unter theoutpace.rocks/music.

Fazit: The Outpace machen vor, wie eine moderne Band-Website aussehen sollte – laut, klar und mit einer Domain, die man sich beim ersten Mal merkt. 🎸 https://theoutpace.rocks – Rock beginnt schon bei der Webadresse!

A new website has been set up for the band The Outpace. This is now available at https://out.rl-dev.de.

As the website is currently under construction, not all content is available yet. More information, images and additional content will be added in the coming weeks. The current address serves as a temporary solution for the time being and is not yet a final domain.

Note on server maintenance

Yesterday there were temporary restrictions on the accessibility of the website and game server due to short-term maintenance on the computing system. Unfortunately, as the maintenance had to be carried out unplanned, it could not be announced in advance.

We apologize for the inconvenience caused and thank you for your understanding. The computing system is now available again as usual.

Important announcement: Planned host change

I would like to inform you today about an important upcoming change: The entire host system will be changed during this week. This affects the Discord bot, the homepage and the game server.

What is being changed?

• Discord Bot: The bot is being migrated to a new system. There may be brief failures or delays in responding to commands.
• Homepage (rl-dev.de): The website is being moved to the new host. During the migration there may be short periods of inaccessibility.
• Game server: The game server will also be migrated to the new system. Current game sessions may be temporarily interrupted.

What does this mean for you?

The change will be carried out as smoothly as possible, but you should still expect short interruptions. I will try to keep the downtime as minimal as possible and keep you updated via the Discord server.

Why the change?

The new host offers better performance, more stability and an improved infrastructure - which benefits everyone in the long term. It is an investment in the future of rl-dev.de and everything that goes with it.

Schedule

The change is scheduled for sometime this week. The exact date depends on various factors. As soon as a specific date is set, I will inform you in good time in the Discord.

Thank you for your understanding and patience! 🙏
