Use Advanced Settings and modules in the GTX game panel to fine-tune your server: install the tool and a module in Mod Manager, unpack the settings, edit them in Configuration Files, then pack them back.
How to use Advanced Settings and modules
- Log in to the game panel and open your server.
- Stop your server: press STOP and wait until it has fully stopped.
- Go to Mod Manager and install the Advanced Settings tool.
- Go to Mod Manager and install the Advanced Settings module you want.
- Go back to your control panel, click the Advanced Settings button and Unpack the settings.
- Go to Configuration Files, edit the files you want from the module you installed in step 4, and save them.
- Go back to your control panel, click the Advanced Settings button and Pack the settings back.
- Start your server: press START.
Some games don't have Advanced Settings button support. If you can't find the tool in Mod Manager or the button in your control panel, your game doesn't use it.
Take a quick backup before you change module settings, so you can roll back if something breaks. See How to back up your game server.
Advanced Settings questions
How do I use Advanced Settings and modules in the game panel?
Stop your server, install the Advanced Settings tool and the module you want from Mod Manager, then click the Advanced Settings button and Unpack the settings. Edit the module's files in Configuration Files and save them, click Advanced Settings again and Pack the settings back, then start your server.
My changes don't show up in game. What did I miss?
Check that you edited the files of the module you installed, saved them in Configuration Files, and then used the Advanced Settings button to Pack the settings back before you started the server.
I don't see an Advanced Settings button. Why?
Some games don't have Advanced Settings button support, so the button only shows on games that use it. Install the Advanced Settings tool from Mod Manager first. If it still doesn't show, open a support ticket.
