Why dedicated Valheim hosting?
A dedicated game server gives you much more control and stability than hosting Valheim from your own computer.
🚀 Your computer doesn't need to stay on
Your Valheim server runs independently of your own PC. Your friends can play whenever they want, without you having to leave your computer on for it.
⚡ Stable performance
The server resources are available to your game server, meaning you don't have to strain your own gaming system by hosting the world simultaneously.
🌍 Available 24/7
Keep your Viking world available day and night. You and your friends can return to your world at any time.
👥 Play together without host dependency
A dedicated server prevents the world from depending on one specific player having to start the game before others can join.
🔧 Full control
Adjust server settings, world files, and configurations however you like.
Configuring a Valheim server
Valheim gives you various options to customize your server. Via the game panel and the server configuration, you can set up your world as desired.
Server name
Give your server a unique name so friends can easily recognize it.
For example:
Jordy's Viking Kingdom
You can adjust the server name via the Valheim server configuration.
Password
You can secure your server with a password so that only your friends can gain access.
This is especially useful when you want to play in a private world.
Choose world
You can use an existing world or have a new Valheim world generated.
If you already have an existing world, you can also upload it to your server via the game panel.
Server visibility
You can determine whether your server should be visible in the public server list or only accessible to players who know the server address.
For a private server with friends, you can protect the server with a password.
Valheim world modifiers
With the Valheim world modifiers, you can adjust the gameplay of your world.
Depending on your desired playstyle, you can, for example, adjust the difficulty and the amount of resources.
Do you want a challenging survival experience? Use the default settings.
Do you want to build faster and spend less time gathering resources? Then you can adjust the resource and gameplay settings.
This allows you to turn Valheim from a tough survival experience into a more relaxed co-op adventure.
Using mods on your Valheim server
Do you want to expand Valheim with extra features? You can use mods.
Modded Valheim can, for example, add new gameplay mechanics, items, buildings, or other features.
When using mods, it is important that the server and players are using the same required mods and versions.
You can manage the necessary files and adjust your server configuration via the game panel.
Managing your Valheim server
Via the game panel, you get access to various management functions.
💻 Console
View server notifications and execute available server commands.
📁 File management
Upload, download, and edit server files directly from the game panel.
🔄 Server management
Start, stop, and restart your Valheim server whenever you want.
💾 World management
Manage your Valheim world files and create backups before making major changes.
⚙️ Configuration
Adjust the server configuration without needing to work directly on the underlying hardware.
