Questions
Before you order.
Which games can I host?+
Minecraft (Paper, Purpur, Forge, Fabric, Quilt and Crossplay with Bedrock joins), FiveM, Rust, ARK: Survival Evolved, Palworld, Counter-Strike 2, Valheim, Garry's Mod, Terraria, Project Zomboid and Satisfactory. DayZ is coming soon.
Which plan should I pick?+
Start from the plan marked Suggested for your game. Memory matters most: modded Minecraft, large FiveM roleplay servers and Rust maps need more. You can order a bigger plan at any time.
Are game servers protected from DDoS attacks?+
Yes. Every game server includes DDoS protection, always on and at no extra cost.
Do I need anything from the game publisher?+
Some games need your own key. FiveM servers need a Cfx.re license key, which txAdmin asks for on first start. Counter-Strike 2 needs a Steam game server login token (GSLT), added as STEAM_GSLT in the Startup tab of the game panel.
How do I manage the server after it is live?+
Open it from the Nodewave dashboard. The game panel has the live console, files, SFTP access and startup settings.
