Manual Usage
Some users may not want to bother with this program and will want to use an already generated URI.
[!IMPORTANT] Account authentication with this method will not be present. You will have to login inside the Roblox app for that.
[!NOTE] You should read Bloxstrap's deep dive on handling URIs to understand the values that are being used.
Basis
There will be two elements to this URI:
roblox-player
: Makes browsers and other applications understand that Roblox wants to be launchedplacelauncherurl
: The main part that tells Roblox what game, private server, or friend to join
Your final URI will look like something like this:
roblox-player:1+placelauncherurl:https://assetgame.roblox.com/game/PlaceLauncher.ashx?placeId=1818
The default value for roblox-player
will always be 1
.
The value for placelauncherurl
will change depending on what you want to join to, but will always have placelauncherurl:https://assetgame.roblox.com/game/PlaceLauncher.ashx?
.
Joining a Game
You will need to add placeId=[game-id]
, where [game-id]
is the ID of the game you want to join. See here on how to get a Game ID.
Final URI: roblox-player:1+placelauncherurl:https://assetgame.roblox.com/game/PlaceLauncher.ashx?placeId=[game-id]
Joining a Private Server
[!NOTE] Private server access code must exist within the Game ID. Access to private server is required. Using the private server ID from a generated link will not work.
You will need to add both placeid=[game-id]
and accessCode=[private-server-access-code]
to the URI, separated with an &
. See here on getting a private server access code.
Final URI: roblox-player:1+placelauncherurl:https://assetgame.roblox.com/game/PlaceLauncher.ashx?placeId=[game-id]&accessCode=[private-server-access-code]
Joining a Friend
You will need to add only userId=[friend-id]
, where [friend-id]
is the user ID of the user you want to join their game.
[!NOTE] Having
placeId
withuserId
may cause the game with that ID to be joined instead of your user you want to follow.
[!NOTE] The user must have permissions to be followed, and must have access to the server they are in.
Final URI: roblox-player:1+placelauncherurl:https://assetgame.roblox.com/game/PlaceLauncher.ashx?userId=[friend-id]
