Introduction
You’ve rented a V Rising game server from us and want to know where to find each feature in ZapX? This guide takes you through your server’s product management from start to finish—and shows you how much time the integrated automation and AI assistance can save you in your day-to-day administration.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Yes. If live queries are supported, the Overview displays the current player count, map, and ping right in the dashboard—no external tools needed.
No. ZapX automatically detects unexpected crashes in the background and refreshes your overview for you.
You can create up to 5 MariaDB databases per server. View credentials at a glance, access them directly through phpMyAdmin, and export the database structure. You can mark one database as primary. To delete one, you’ll need to re-enter its name for security reasons.
Use the Savegames tab, which gives you a dedicated file manager limited to your game save folder.
In addition to the free address assigned automatically, you can create up to 3 more subdomains or connect your own domain. ZapX automatically sets up the required DNS records, including port detection.
The console detects it automatically and displays a clear warning with recommended actions.
With a ZapX Pass, you can restore a backup with one click under Backups. You’ll see live restore progress, and the server is stopped only briefly. We also back up your server automatically every day.
It displays incoming traffic live in a graph and lists past attacks with their time, duration, and peak bandwidth. ZapX automatically learns which ports and services belong to your server and filters traffic accordingly. If you have your own IP address, you can even customize the protection settings.

Overview
The Overview is your cockpit: check your server status, copy the IP:port with one click, and monitor live CPU, RAM, disk, and network usage. Each resource tile has a direct "Upgrade" button in case you’re running low. If your game supports live queries, you can even see the current player count, map, and ping directly in the dashboard, without any external tools.
Tip
If your server crashes unexpectedly, ZapX detects it automatically in the background and refreshes your overview for you—there’s no need to reload the page manually to see the actual status.
Configuration
Manually searching through configuration files is a thing of the past: under Configuration, AI automatically scans your server files, identifies the relevant settings, and turns them into easy-to-understand form fields grouped by topic—with an explanation for each parameter. Critical values are specially marked with a "Caution" notice so you don’t accidentally bring your server to a halt. If you prefer the classic approach, you can open the raw text view of the config file instead—both options are available in the same view.
After you save, ZapX offers to restart the server so your changes take effect right away.
ZapX AI Agent
With the ZapX Pass, you have the ZapX AI Agent at your side—your personal on-demand server admin. Chat with it to read and analyze your console log, search and edit files, manage backups, view or reset your FTP credentials, and get update suggestions. You’ll be asked to confirm any action that changes something on your server—the AI Agent never acts on its own, so you always stay in full control.
Manage content
Files
The file manager under Files works like an FTP program right in your browser: upload files using drag and drop, edit them online, rename them, or delete them. You’ll also find your SFTP credentials for external programs such as FileZilla or WinSCP in the same tab, with one-click password rotation if you need to update them.
Databases
Under Databases, you can create up to 5 MariaDB databases per server, view credentials at a glance, open them directly in phpMyAdmin, or export the structure with one click. You can mark one database as primary. To delete a database, you’ll need to re-enter its name for security reasons.
Savegames
Under Savegames, you’ll find a dedicated file manager limited to your game save folder. It shows you exactly what you need, without having to navigate through the entire server file tree.
Operations and maintenance
Console
The Console shows your server’s live output in a real terminal. Here’s what makes it special: ZapX automatically generates an AI-powered command palette tailored to your game, organized into categories such as Administration, Gameplay, and Chat—with autocomplete as you type. If your server starts struggling due to low memory, the console detects it automatically and displays a clear warning with recommended actions.
Backups
We automatically back up your server every day, so you always have a recent backup on hand without having to remember to create one yourself. With the ZapX Pass, you get full control under Backups: create, restore, and download backups with one click. Each backup includes a complete version snapshot (game version, configuration), so you can return to that exact state whenever you need to. Restores include a live progress indicator, and the server is stopped only briefly. With ZapX Pass Pro, your backups can even run automatically on your own schedule.
Tip
With ZapX Pass Plus, you get 1, with Pro 3, and with Max 5 personal backup slots per server. See all the benefits on the ZapX Pass page. There’s also an account-wide storage limit for all backups of your services combined, daily backups included: 250 GB for Plus, 500 GB for Pro, and 1,000 GB for Max. If needed, you can purchase additional backup storage on the ZapX Pass page.
Schedules
Under Schedules, you can automate recurring tasks: start, stop, or restart the server, create a backup (with ZapX Pass Pro and above), or run a custom command. Choose from handy presets such as "Every hour" or "Daily at 04:00," or set up your own schedule using a custom cron expression.
Statistics
Under Statistics, you can monitor your server’s usage. Choose a time period from 1 hour to 30 days and view CPU, RAM, disk, network traffic, and your player count in relation to your purchased slots.
Activity
Activity keeps a complete log of what happens on your server—from starts and restarts to configuration changes, every backup, and every console command. This makes it easy to see what changed and when.
DDoS Manager
The DDoS Manager displays incoming traffic live in a graph and lists past attacks with their time, duration, and peak bandwidth. ZapX automatically learns which ports and services belong to your server and filters traffic accordingly. If you have your own IP address, you can even customize the protection settings.
Conclusion
You now know your way around every section of your V Rising server management in ZapX—from AI-powered configuration to automatic backups that have your back in the background.
