MM123 Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 Hi. I need help with hosting PZ multiplayer server. Did what pz wiki told me to do in order to host a server, but it is not working. I would like to know if there is any official way of hosting a server. Any help would be so much appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaizokuroof Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 If you are using steamcmd, remember to specify the beta branch; eg: app_update <pz app id number> -beta b41multiplayer - b41multiplayer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptKaspar Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 Have you downloaded the "Project Zomboid Dedicated Server" from the tools in Steam ? You will need to go into properties and set the Betas tab to "b41-multiplayer". After launching this through Steam you can go to "Host" and edit your settings. However you should join the server by going to "Join" and entering your server information on the right. The Username will be what your in-game character displays. Alternatively you can launch the server from C:>Program Files (x86)>Steam>steamapps>common>Project Zomboid Dedicated Server>StartServer64.bat Make sure router ports 16261 and 8767 are open. You can also use steamcmd as stated above to download the server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
