How to Install and Configure Enshrouded Dedicated Servers
A complete guide to configuring your Enshrouded server, setting passwords, and adjusting world settings.
Enshrouded is a massive voxel-based survival RPG that is best experienced with friends on a 24/7 dedicated server. Here is how to configure your GameSphere Enshrouded server.
1. Locating the Configuration File
Enshrouded uses a single JSON file for all major server settings. In your GameSphere control panel, open the File Manager and navigate to:
/savegame/enshrouded_server.json
2. Essential Server Settings
Edit the JSON file to customize your server. Be very careful not to break the JSON syntax (ensure commas and quotes are placed correctly).
"name": "My Epic Server"- The name that will appear in the server browser."password": "secret123"- Leave this blank for a public server, or add a password to keep it private."saveDirectory": "./savegame"- Do not change this unless you know what you are doing."slotCount": 16- Enshrouded currently supports up to 16 players simultaneously.
3. Finding Your Server in the Browser
Due to the massive popularity of the game, the in-game server browser can sometimes fail to load all servers. If you cannot find your server by name:
- Open Steam.
- Click View > Game Servers.
- Click the Favorites tab and click the + icon.
- Enter your GameSphere
IP:PORTand click OK. - Launch Enshrouded, and your server will appear at the top of your favorites list!
