Your Vintage Story server is provisioned and ready — this guide walks you through your first 10 minutes: connecting, picking your world settings, and installing your first mod from the official ModDB.\n\n## 1. Find your server address\n\nOpen the DoomHosting panel and click your Vintage Story server. The connection address is shown at the top of the page — it looks like `vs-eu-01.doomhosting.com:42420` (the default Vintage Story port is **42420**).\n\nCopy the full `hostname:port` string. That is what you will paste into the game.\n\n## 2. Connect from Vintage Story\n\n1. Launch Vintage Story.\n2. Click **Play** → **Connect to Server**.\n3. Paste the server address into the box and click **Connect**.\n\nThat is it for vanilla. If you set a password under the server config, the game will prompt you for it the first time.\n\n## 3. Tune your world (before anyone joins)\n\nMost server config lives in `serverconfig.json` in your server root. The settings you will care about first:\n\n- **WorldName** — what shows in the server browser\n- **Seed** — controls terrain generation. Leave blank for random.\n- **WorldClimate** — `realistic` (default, day\u002Fnight and seasons), `patchy`, or `worldlike`\n- **PlayStyle** — `surviveandbuild` (default), `exploration`, or `wildernesssurvival` for hardcore players\n- **MaxPlayers** — keep at 16 unless you have plenty of RAM (see the [Vintage Story RAM Calculator](\u002Ftools\u002Fvintage-story-ram-calculator) for sizing).\n\nEdit the file via the **File Manager** in the panel, save, then click **Restart** for changes to take effect.\n\n## 4. Install a mod from ModDB\n\nVintage Story uses the official **ModDB** at `mods.vintagestory.at`. Mods are just `.zip` files dropped into the `Mods` folder.\n\nThe fast way on DoomHosting:\n\n1. In the panel, open **Mods** in the left sidebar.\n2. Search the ModDB catalogue, click **Install** on the mod you want, restart the server.\n\nThe manual way (for mods not in the catalogue, or specific versions):\n\n1. Download the `.zip` from `mods.vintagestory.at`.\n2. Open **File Manager** → `data\u002FMods` (create it if it does not exist).\n3. Upload the `.zip` file as-is — **do not extract it**.\n4. Restart the server.\n\nPlayers will need to install the same mods locally to join. Vintage Story does **not** auto-sync mods to clients like some games do.\n\n## 5. Make a backup before you do anything risky\n\nBefore installing major mods or testing config changes, take a backup from the panel's **Backups** tab. Restores are one click and your world is exactly as it was.\n\n## What's next\n\n- [Vintage Story RAM Calculator](\u002Ftools\u002Fvintage-story-ram-calculator) — figure out exactly how much RAM your modded server needs\n- Open a support ticket from the panel if anything is not behaving — we answer 24\u002F7\n","vintage story, server hosting, getting started, moddb, dedicated server, vintage story server","Andre","Founder","2026-05-11T09:39:13.589+00:00","2026-05-11T09:39:13.562867+00:00","getting-started-vintage-story-server",{"da":72,"de":73,"en":70,"pl":74,"sv":75},"kom-godt-i-gang-med-vintage-story-server","erste-schritte-vintage-story-server","pierwsze-kroki-vintage-story-server","kom-igang-med-vintage-story-server",{"name":66,"role":67},{"slug":60,"name":78},"Vintage Story",{"slug":60,"name":78,"icon":80,"cardImage":81,"description":82},"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.doomhosting.com\u002Ficons\u002Fvintage-story.png","https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.doomhosting.com\u002Fgames\u002Fvintage-story.webp","Vintage Story is a deep voxel survival game where realistic geology, seasons, and slow tribal progression turn every world into an atmospheric civilization-builder.
