What comes set up on a Wreckfest 2 server
Your event loop
Write your own .becl rotation with tracks, game modes, laps, weather and bot counts for every event.
Cups and points
Set up cups in server_cup_config.ccnl with your own points per position and best lap bonus for league nights.
Admins by Steam ID
Give your race directors admin or moderator roles in server_privilege.sprv so they can change tracks and kick wreckers.
Keeps up with patches
Auto Update installs each Early Access build on restart, so drivers on the newest version can still join.

Common problems
The server config files are JSON. One missing comma between events in a .becl file stops the server from loading it, so run edits through a JSON validator first.
If drivers cannot connect after a game patch, restart the server so Auto Update brings it to the same build.
When an admin changes the track by hand, the rotation stops. Restart or reload the event loop to get it going again.
Set the server name and password in the panel, not in server_config.scnf. The panel writes them into the file on every start.
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.
Wreckfest 2 server hosting, explained
Wreckfest 2 is Bugbear's sequel to their demolition racer, built on a new physics engine where cars come apart panel by panel and dents change how they drive. It has been in Early Access on Steam since March 2025, published by THQ Nordic, and is still being patched and expanded. Multiplayer covers circuit races, figure 8 chaos and derby arenas on grids of up to 24 cars.
A dedicated server gives a group a lobby that is always up and does not depend on one player's upload. Race clubs run a fixed rotation of their favorite tracks, leagues set up cups with their own points tables, and derby crowds keep a server on banger arenas all night. Admin roles go to Steam IDs, so a race director can change events and deal with wreckers without needing to host.
In the panel you set the server name and password and keep Auto Update on, which matters most while the game is in Early Access. The rest is in JSON files in the save folder, open in the file manager: server_config.scnf for the server, .becl files for the event loop, server_cup_config.ccnl for cups and server_privilege.sprv for admins and moderators. Changes apply on restart.
Races are short sessions with no persistent world, so the server is not memory hungry. A private lobby runs on 4 GB. A full 24 car grid with bots is comfortable on 6 GB, and a public server running cups all day has the most headroom on 8 GB as Early Access updates add more. You can change plans at any time if updates make it hungrier.

Common questions
How many players can a Wreckfest 2 server hold?
Up to 24 per event, counting real drivers and bots together. That limit is set by Bugbear and cannot be raised.
How do I change the track rotation?
Edit or add .becl event loop files in the save folder. Each entry sets the track, game mode, laps, weather and number of bots.
How do I add admins?
Put each player's SteamID64 in server_privilege.sprv with an admin or moderator role, then restart the server.
Can I run a league or cup on my server?
Yes. server_cup_config.ccnl defines cups, their points per position, start order and best lap bonus, and each cup can use its own event loop.
How do friends join with an IP address?
In the Multiplayer Server Browser, click Connect to Address and enter the server address. The server also shows in the list by name.
Is Wreckfest 2 still in Early Access?
Yes. It is on PC through Steam in Early Access, and console versions have no announced date yet. Expect regular patches, and keep Auto Update on.
Does Wreckfest 2 have crossplay?
Not today, since the game is only on PC. Console versions are planned but crossplay has not been confirmed.
Can I password protect my Wreckfest 2 server?
Yes. Set Server Password in the panel and restart. Drivers are asked for it when they join.
Is GamezServers affiliated with Wreckfest 2?
No. You rent and control your own dedicated Wreckfest 2 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.
