What comes set up on a Veloren server
Your own world seed
Set world_seed in settings.ron for a fresh continent of towns, dungeons and airship routes that only your group explores.
Whitelist and admins
Fill whitelist.ron to keep the world to your party, and add admins or moderators from the panel console.
PvP or peaceful
Set battle_mode to PvP or PvE for everyone, or PerPlayer so each player can switch with /battlemode in town.
Weekly or nightly build
Pick the weekly build for stability or nightly for the newest features, and tell players to run the same one.

How to join your Veloren server

- 2

- 3
Start the game and type your username and password on the title screen.
- 4
Enter

Common problems
Most failed joins are a version mismatch. If the server runs weekly, players need the weekly client from Airshipper, and nightly needs nightly.
Players log in with their Veloren account, not a server password. Create one at veloren.net/account before the first join.
Add admins with admin add <username> admin in the panel console. There is no in game command that makes an admin permanent.
Changing world_seed or the map size makes a new world on the next start. Take a backup first if you want to keep the old one.
Server not responding
Make sure the server is online. Servers sleep after 4 days with nobody playing, and anyone with access can start them again from the dashboard in one click.
Use the server address
Do not use localhost, 127.0.0.1 or your own IP from a home hosting guide. Copy the exact address of the server.
No port forwarding or firewall changes
Opening ports on your router is only for hosting a server at home, so there is nothing to change to join this one. If Windows asks whether to let the game through the firewall, choose Allow.
Veloren server hosting, explained
Veloren is a free, open source voxel RPG written in Rust and made by volunteers. The world is generated from a seed: rivers, mountains, towns full of NPCs you can talk to and hire, dungeons with bosses, and airships that fly set routes between sites. Combat is action based with skill trees per weapon, and there is mining, cooking, crafting and fishing on the side. Version 0.18 came out in January 2026 and the game keeps moving with weekly builds.
The official server is busy and shared with everyone, so many groups run their own. A private server lets a friend group or a small guild explore a world at their own pace, keep a whitelist, and set its own rules, like a peaceful PvE world or letting each player toggle PvP with /battlemode. Since the game is free, getting friends in costs nothing beyond creating a Veloren account.
In the panel you set the server name and choose the weekly or nightly build. Everything else lives in plain files you can edit in the file manager: settings.ron for max players, seed, start time, view distance, safe spawn and battle mode, whitelist.ron for who may join, and banlist.ron. Admins and moderators are added from the server console with admin add.
For a 3D world the Veloren server is light. A default world with a handful of players runs on 2 GB, and 4 GB covers most groups with room to spare. World size is what drives memory: each time you double a map dimension, generation and RAM go up sharply, so big custom worlds or a busy public server should start at 8 GB.

Common questions
How many players can a Veloren server handle?
The default max_players in settings.ron is 100, and you can change it in the file manager. Small groups run comfortably on 2 to 4 GB.
Is Veloren free?
Yes. Veloren is free and open source, so players only need the client and a free Veloren account to join your server.
Why can't my friends connect?
Usually the client and server builds do not match. Check the Version setting in the panel (weekly or nightly) and have everyone pick the same build in Airshipper.
How do I make myself admin?
Type admin add followed by your username and admin in the panel console. Moderators are added the same way with the moderator role.
How do I keep strangers out?
Add your players to whitelist.ron. Once that file has entries, only the players listed in it can join.
Can I change the world seed or map size?
Yes, in settings.ron. A new seed or size generates a new world on restart, and larger maps take longer to generate and use more RAM.
Does Veloren have mods?
There is no mod loader for servers. Changes to gameplay mean editing the open source code or the asset files yourself, so most servers run the standard game.
Can I turn off PvP on my Veloren server?
Yes. Set battle_mode in settings.ron to Global(PvE) for a peaceful server, or PerPlayer(PvE) so players can opt in to PvP with /battlemode. The default is Global(PvP).
Should I use the weekly or nightly build?
Weekly is the safer choice and matches what most players already run. Nightly gets new features first but can break between days.
Is GamezServers affiliated with Veloren?
No. You rent and control your own dedicated Veloren server. GamezServers is not affiliated with the game's developer or publisher.
Can my friends and I split the cost?
Yes. At checkout choose "Me and my friends" and up to 10 people each pay their own share with their own card, on any plan length, from 3 days to a year. It is not a payment plan: nobody pays in parts over time, each friend simply pays their own share. You pay yours, send each friend their link, and the server starts straight away. Each share includes a $1 payment fee.
Can I build a custom plan?
Yes. Every game has a Build your own page: pick any amount of RAM up to 32 GB, any length from 3 days to 1 year, prepaid or a subscription, plus your server type and settings. A custom size costs 15% more per GB than the standard plans next to it.
Can I pay once instead of a subscription?
Yes. Pick Prepaid and pay once for 3 days, 30 days, 6 months or a year. Nothing renews: when the time is up the server pauses and keeps its world for 14 days. Add time or switch to a subscription from your panel any time. Short rentals cost more per day, since every server is set up from scratch.
How fast is setup, really?
Your server starts building the moment Stripe confirms payment. Most are online in under a minute, and the address and login appear on your dashboard automatically.
