Why can’t I see my Mordhau server in the server list?

Check that the server is running (the first startup takes a few minutes), that the game port and beacon port are open in the Windows Firewall and your VPS’s Network Firewall, and that no server browser filters are hiding it.

Introduction

Not sure how to connect to your Mordhau server on your VPS or what you need to do it? No worries—we’ll show you step by step what information you need and how to connect. We’ll also share tips in case it doesn’t work right away.

Get your server details

You’ll need your server’s address to connect:

IP address: Your VPS’s IP address. You can find it in the Overview of your VPS in the ZapX dashboard.
Port: 7777 by default, unless you chose a different Game Port under Advanced settings during installation.
Server name: The name you chose during installation.

If you set up the server using the Game Server Installer, it will show you the full address after installation under How to connect next to Connect to.

Connect to the server

Start your game and select Fight from the main menu. Open the server browser and enter your server’s name in the search field on the right to find it quickly.

Alternatively, you can connect directly using your server’s IP address and port.

Common issues and solutions

Server not visible or unreachable

Server isn’t running: Use Remote Desktop to check whether the server is running, and start it if needed using the Mordhau (mordhau) - Start shortcut. You can find error messages in C:\ZapX-GameServers\mordhau\logs\server.log. The first startup takes a few minutes. The game log is located at server\Mordhau\Saved\Logs\Mordhau.log.
Ports aren’t open: The ports must be open in the Windows Firewall and your VPS’s Network Firewall. See Mordhau: Set up a server on your VPS for the ports required by Mordhau.
Incorrect filters: Check whether a filter in the server browser is hiding your server. Direct connection via IP and port works regardless of these filters.
