Hytale F2P Server Setup Guide

Server File Setup

Download server file:

http://3.10.208.30:3002/server

Replace the file here:
<your_path>\HytaleF2P\release\package\game\latest\Server

If you don't have any custom installation path:

1. Press WIN + R
2. Type: %localappdata%\HytaleF2P\release\package\game\latest\Server
3. Press Enter

You will be redirected to the correct folder automatically.

Network Setup - Radmin VPN Required

Important: The server only supports third-party software for LAN-style connections. You must use Radmin VPN to connect players together.

1. Download and install Radmin VPN
2. Create or join a network in Radmin VPN
3. All players must be connected to the same Radmin network
4. Use the Radmin VPN IP address to connect to the server

This creates a virtual LAN environment that allows the Hytale server to work properly with multiple players.

RAM Allocation Guide (Windows)

When you start a Hytale server using start-server.bat, Java will use very little memory by default.
This can cause slow startup, crashes, or the server not launching at all.

You should always allocate RAM in your launch command.

Edit your start-server.bat file and use the version that matches your PC:

---

PC with 4 GB RAM

Best for small servers / testing

java -Xms512M -Xmx2G -jar HytaleServer.jar --assets ..\Assets.zip

• Uses up to 2 GB
• Leaves enough memory for Windows

---

PC with 8 GB RAM

Good for small communities

java -Xms1G -Xmx4G -jar HytaleServer.jar --assets ..\Assets.zip

• Uses up to 4 GB
• Stable for most setups

---

PC with 16 GB RAM

Perfect for large or modded servers

java -Xms2G -Xmx8G -jar HytaleServer.jar --assets ..\Assets.zip

• Uses up to 8 GB
• Ideal for heavy worlds and plugins

---

Tips

• -Xms = minimum RAM allocation
• -Xmx = maximum RAM allocation
• Never allocate all your system RAM — Windows still needs memory to run
• Test your configuration with a small world first
• Monitor server performance and adjust RAM as needed
