Guides, tutorials, and tips for game server hosting. Everything you need to get the most out of your server.
"Verity" is a character, not one download — an official mod (Verity JE), a Bedrock addon and several packs share the name. Which implementations support multiplayer, LAN vs dedicated servers, the AI setup step everyone misses, and what a VerityCraft server actually needs.
Server-side RAM for 17 packs — ATM10, Aeronautics, To the Sky, DawnCraft, Better MC, Prominence II, Cobblemon, Pixelmon, RLCraft and more. Where the numbers come from, what four of them actually idle at on our own hardware, and when CPU is the real limit.
How to make yourself admin, the kick and ban commands that work on a vanilla server, the 1.0 ID change that broke admin lists, and why devcommands is refused on a dedicated server — with the three real workarounds.
World modifiers are launch arguments on a dedicated server, not a menu. Every preset, modifier and key with its exact spelling, the ordering rule that silently undoes your changes, and how to change the rules on a world you already play.
Player-hosted, a home machine, a VPS or a game host — the real costs and failure modes of each, and how 1.0’s crossplay and patch cadence change the decision.
Two files and a name: where the .db and .fwl live on every platform, where to put them on the server, the password rule that blocks the start, and why characters come along for free.
A Valheim server’s memory tracks your world, not your player count. What the 1.0 server really uses, measured, and a sizing table for 4GB, 6GB and 8GB.
Why the 1.0 update broke modded servers, the five-minute vanilla boot that gets your world back, and how to reintroduce mods without repeating the outage on the next patch.
The new biome only generates where nobody has explored. How to check your map, what to do when the north is already mapped, and how a dedicated server fits the Deep North push.
Console players, a new world version, the Deep North, performance notes with a caveat, and mods on shaky ground — plus the update sequence that keeps a mixed PC and console group from being locked out.
Console players can only reach a server started with the crossplay flag, and they join with a six-digit code that changes on every restart. Here is the whole flow, platform by platform.
The complete 1.0 dedicated server guide for Linux and Windows: SteamCMD install, every launch argument, the crossplay flag console players need, the password rules that silently stop a server, systemd, updates and admin lists.
