AI creation tools, Minecraft crossplay, and a more welcoming shop

Build something new with AI, welcome more players to your Minecraft server, and bring an existing server into ZapX more easily. This release also introduces Discord server controls, more game configuration tools, broader language support, and important improvements to billing, security, and everyday server management.

More ways to create and configure

• Create with the AI Plugin & Mod Studio. Available with ZapX Pass Plus or higher, the studio brings Minecraft plugin and mod creation into the dashboard, including a shortcut from Minecraft servers. Customers without access can view the feature and its access requirements.
• Build FiveM resources with AI. The studio now supports Lua resources for FiveM, with downloadable packages and deployment to your server. A public FiveM resource maker page provides another starting point.
• Generate configurations for 59 games. The Game Config Generator now covers a much wider selection of games and configuration formats, including games that use multiple configuration files.
• Use game tools without leaving your server. The gameserver Tools tab now opens tools inside the dashboard, connected to the server you are managing. Tile overviews and featured or trending markers make useful tools easier to discover.
• Install game servers on a VPS more easily. The new Game Server Installer supports ARK: Survival Evolved, Minecraft, FiveM, and Source games. Generate a copy-and-paste installation command without signing in, or install on your ZapX VPS with live progress and firewall setup.
• Find the right tool faster. The redesigned public tools hub puts popular game categories first, keeps additional categories behind a “show more” option, and marks trending tools in the main list rather than a separate section.

More possibilities for Minecraft and gameservers

• Welcome Bedrock players to your Java server. Enable Geyser and Floodgate in one click from Configuration on Paper, Spigot, Bukkit, or Purpur servers running Minecraft 1.20 or newer. This lets Bedrock Edition players join without a separate Bedrock server.
• Manage Minecraft players from the panel. The new Players tab for Minecraft Java 1.21.9 or newer brings online players, operators, and banned players together. Kick, ban with a reason and duration, unban, and manage operator levels, with clear failures when an unknown player cannot be updated.
• See your Minecraft server as players see it. A new overview card previews the in-game server-list entry, including your icon, colored MOTD, player count, and ping bars.
• Move from another host without downloading everything first. Import server files over SFTP, FTP, or FTPS and transfer MySQL databases directly into ZapX. Database imports also receive stronger safeguards for imported SQL and credentials.
• Set up a Tebex webstore from your gameserver. The new Tebex Shop tab starts store creation with one click. After you complete the emailed invitation, the tab picks up your store details and displays the secret needed to configure the server plugin.

Easier daily server and community management

• Control selected services from Discord. The ZapX Discord bot, Zappy, is available with ZapX Pass Pro. Link your Discord account, choose which services and permissions it may use, and manage servers with slash commands.
• Keep live server status in your Discord channel. The new /widget command posts an automatically updated status embed for one server, which you can pin for easy reference.
• Check uptime at a glance. Gameserver and VPS overview cards now show server uptime, while detail pages make uptime and its last update easier to read.
• Get more dependable live status. Gameserver latency tiles now show server-side latency instead of remaining on “Measuring.” Player-count collection is more reliable, and gameserver, VPS, and TeamSpeak status updates better handle deployments.
• Save server settings with fewer surprises. Configuration forms, AI actions, tools, and API changes now apply consistent value checks and protections for managed settings. Configuration generation also receives stronger handling for customer-entered values.
• Recover more reliably from server changes. Fixes address startup permission failures affecting Counter-Strike 2 and Foundry, incomplete installation indicators after reconfiguration, and conflicting game-file updates.
• Keep One-Click Apps safer during VPS changes. App removal no longer proceeds before a reinstall is accepted, running apps receive stronger protection during node removal, and app credentials stay more consistent. Missing logos for 13 app templates are also restored.
• Run marketplace Discord bots more reliably. Fixes address startup or restart problems with Discord Tickets, TediCross, and YAGPDB, alongside improvements to restart handling and assigned IP retention.

A shop that works better in your language

• Browse more of the shop in your chosen language. Product labels, pricing periods, package features, and familiar badges such as “Recommended” and “Best value” receive broader localization. Custom badge text stays unchanged, and “Lifetime” remains the same product name throughout the shop and order descriptions.
• Read more natural headings and labels. Shop steps, product pages, FAQs, the homepage, Help Center, About page, and ZapX Pass pages now support complete translated sentences instead of awkward fragments. Related-product categories and Discord template labels are also more consistent.
• Use more tools and Minecraft pages in your language. Configuration-generator FAQs, example prompts, controls, and validation messages receive broader translation coverage. Minecraft loader catalogs, installation dialogs, plugin categories, and download counts also get localized presentation.
• Find game variants directly in shop search. Search results can now find and preselect supported non-Minecraft game variants, and shared variant links can open the matching selection.
• Compare packages comfortably on phones. Pricing cards support touch swiping and Safari trackpad scrolling, while billing-term price captions no longer overlap in narrow layouts.
• Complete checkout with fewer interruptions. Currency switching no longer intermittently breaks the page, dedicated-server summaries describe included IPs more clearly, and stale dedicated configuration share links receive fixes.
• Explore more localized product pages. Minecraft hosting pages now cover Spanish, Italian, Dutch, Polish, Portuguese, and Swedish, alongside Swedish gameserver hosting, French Minecraft Spigot and ZapX Pass pages, English Spigot plugin pages, and Spanish, French, and Portuguese MCP pages.
• Understand hosting options more easily. Product pages use a clearer primary action, VPS pages offer more convenient ordering links, and gameserver pages showcase Discord management. Help links better respect your language, and the mobile-app showcase lets you request a launch notification while the app remains coming soon.

Clearer billing and payment recovery

• Get warning before a saved card expires. New email and in-app reminders help you update payment details before a renewal fails.
• Follow payment recovery with clearer notices. Staged emails and an account restriction banner explain overdue-payment restrictions. Under the revised general timeline, failed renewals block new purchases and plan changes, the unpaid service is suspended after 14 days, and an account lock can suspend other services after 21 days. The unpaid service’s data is scheduled for deletion after 45 days.
• Keep your ZapX Pass setup during a payment-related pause. Pass benefits pause during applicable suspensions, account locks, or open chargebacks without triggering deletion or downgrades. Resolving the restriction restores benefits automatically.
• Receive statutory withdrawal refunds through the original payment method. Withdrawal handling also prevents withdrawn orders from being reactivated or leaving a late-provisioned service running.
• See less confusing invoices and billing text. Waiting dedicated orders and gameserver preorders no longer show the extra zero-value activation invoice. Stripe-provided receipts, invoices, and other billing text now follow account-language changes.
• Get more consistent dedicated and domain checkout behavior. Invalid zero-price dedicated offers are no longer orderable, and derived dedicated prices round upward to standard price endings across currencies. Non-EUR domain prices use the same rounding approach, while domain checkout receives fixes for validation, add-on terms, and currency handling.
• Handle payment disputes with more specific rules. Chargebacks and returned direct debits receive revised handling. Domains follow a separate renewal-recovery process and are parked for a chargeback on their own payment, not another service’s payment.

More useful support and partner experiences

• Talk to Zappy in the language you are using. Support replies better follow your latest message rather than defaulting to your profile language. Help article links are also more reliable across languages.
• Find the right service or game through support. Zappy can search beyond your 25 newest services and better distinguish similar service names. Game searches handle subtitles and extra words more reliably, reducing incorrect claims that a game is unavailable.
• Continue AI tasks after approval. The account-wide AI Agent now resumes approved VPS commands correctly. Confirmation retries, chat-history errors, access-denied messages, and domain-related errors also receive reliability and localization fixes.
• Link the right service to a conversation faster. Support service pickers now start with a product category, making it easier to narrow down the service you need help with.
• Discover and support verified partners. The new public partner directory offers search, filters, and individual profiles with a universal affiliate button. Partner applications and status pages support every ZapX language with English fallback, and applicants can receive files in replies from the partner team.
• Read and search the blog more comfortably. Articles gain a reading-progress bar, clearer headings and paragraphs, and a dedicated update-notes layout. Search now finds umlaut words in older articles, while image, video, and imported-content fixes improve rendering and keep content dates meaningful.

Safer access and a more comfortable panel

• Confirm sensitive actions with clearer security checks. Verification emails now describe confirmation codes rather than login codes. Two-factor settings receive stronger protection, and newly granting the Discord bot access to a VPS root console requires fresh verification.
• Understand API permissions and shared access more easily. API key and OAuth permission labels are translatable. Shared-service users receive clearer permission-denied responses, and invalid API request fields produce more useful errors instead of generic failures.
• Request a more complete personal-data export. Exports cover more current ZapX products and features, run in the background, and use a verification-protected download available through private storage for seven days.
• Use the panel more comfortably on small screens. Buttons, menus, tooltips, and popovers fit phone viewports more reliably. Sticky action bars leave room for focused fields, and floating support or feedback buttons avoid overlapping an active AI composer.
• Spend less time waiting or retrying. Shop pricing and Help Center loading receive performance improvements, transient session lookup failures are handled more gracefully, and backup creation receives a fix for a timeout that could prevent completion.
