Getting started

Your first hour on V Rising

1

Connect

Your address and port are on the server page in the panel. Paste the address into V Rising's multiplayer screen; if it asks for a port separately, use the one the panel lists — not one from a forum post.

2

Add your content

Supported here: Mods. Upload through the panel's file manager, or over SFTP for anything large, then restart from the console.

V Rising needs 8 GB before anyone connects. These are the plans our calculator picks for a few common group sizes, using the same numbers as the calculator above.

Presets, saves and admin

Pick a Game Settings Preset and a Game Difficulty Preset on the panel's Startup tab. Server Name, Description, Server Password and Max Connected Users (40 by default) are there too.

The world autosaves on its own schedule; Save Name, Auto Save Count and Auto Save Interval are all on the Startup tab, so you can keep more history if you want it.

To make someone admin, add their Steam ID to adminlist.txt in the server's settings folder, restart, then type adminauth in the game's console.

V Rising server hosting FAQ

How much RAM does a V Rising server need?

We start V Rising at 8 GB, which covers the first 12 players. Each extra player adds about 0.2 GB. Forty players come to about 13.6 GB, so the 14 GB plan.

How many players can join?

Max Connected Users is on the Startup tab (40 by default).

Can I change the game rules?

Yes. Choose a Game Settings Preset and a Difficulty Preset on the Startup tab, or edit the server's game settings file directly for finer control.

How do I become admin?

Add your Steam ID to adminlist.txt, restart the server, then type adminauth in the in-game console.

Does the world keep going while I'm offline?

Yes. The server runs around the clock, and your castle and the world persist.

How much does a V Rising server cost?

From $23.99 a month for 8 GB. Each extra gigabyte adds $3. Terms of 3, 6 and 12 months are 10%, 15% and 20% off, with no setup fee.

Will it show in the server list?

Yes. List On Steam and List On Epic are on by default on the Startup tab; turn them off to keep the server unlisted.

Is DDoS protection included?

Yes, on every plan. Traffic is filtered at the network edge before it reaches your server.

Not sure about the size?

The calculator above is sized from our boot tests and published host sizing — 8 GB to boot with the first 12 players included, then about 0.2 GB per extra player, plus 4 GB when mods are on. If you'd rather compare every plan side by side, they're on the pricing page.
