Myth of Empires Server Setup Guide


Myth of Empires is a sandbox survival MMO set in an ancient Eastern-inspired world. This guide covers everything you need to configure and launch your dedicated Myth of Empires server on Legion Hosting, including startup variables, server configuration, PvP/PvE modes, rate adjustments, and how to connect your players.

Before You Begin: Make sure you have access to your GPanel account. If you need help locating your server credentials, see How to Find Your Server IP and Port.

First Start in GPanel

Your Myth of Empires server should be started once before making any configuration changes. This initial boot generates all required configuration files and directory structures.

  1. Log in to GPanel using the credentials from your welcome email.
  2. Select your Myth of Empires server from the server list.
  3. Click Start to boot the server for the first time.
  4. Monitor the console output. The first startup may take 3-8 minutes as the server initializes world data and generates default configuration files.
  5. Once you see messages indicating the server is ready to accept connections, click Stop to shut down gracefully.
  6. You can now edit configuration files before restarting the server with your customized settings.
Important: Always stop the server before editing configuration files. Changes made while the server is running may be overwritten on shutdown or auto-save.

Startup Variables

GPanel provides startup variables under the Startup tab for core server parameters. These variables are applied each time the server starts and override corresponding config file values where applicable.

Variable Description Example
SERVER_NAME Server name displayed in the server browser My Myth of Empires Server
SERVER_PASSWORD Password to join the server (leave blank for public) mypassword
MAX_PLAYERS Maximum concurrent players 50
GAME_PORT Primary game port 12888
QUERY_PORT Steam query port for server browser 12888
ADMIN_PASSWORD Password for GM/admin access in-game adminpass123

Server Configuration Files

Myth of Empires uses several configuration files to control server behavior. The primary config files are located in the server's configuration directory, accessible via SFTP or GPanel's file manager.

Tip: Need help accessing server files? See How to Upload Files via SFTP.

PrivateServerTool.ini

The main configuration file for Myth of Empires private servers is PrivateServerTool.ini (or a similarly named server config file in the server's configuration directory). This file controls gameplay rates, server identity, and game rules.

[ServerSetting]
ServerName=My Myth of Empires Server
ServerPassword=
AdminPassword=YourAdminPassword
MaxPlayers=50
PvPMode=1
MapID=1
ServerID=1

Key Configuration Sections

Server Identity

Setting Description Default
ServerName The name that appears in the server browser. Keep it descriptive and concise. Myth of Empires Server
ServerPassword Password required to join. Leave blank for a public server. (empty)
AdminPassword Password for GM/admin access. Required for in-game admin commands. (empty)
MaxPlayers Maximum number of players allowed on the server simultaneously. 50
ServerID Unique identifier for the server instance. Important if running multiple servers. 1

PvP and PvE Mode

Myth of Empires supports both PvP (Player vs. Player) and PvE (Player vs. Environment) modes. This is one of the most important settings to configure before launching your server.

Setting Value Description
PvPMode=0 PvE Players cannot attack each other or damage player-built structures. Ideal for cooperative play.
PvPMode=1 PvP Full player versus player combat enabled. Players can raid bases and engage in open-world combat.
Note: Some servers use a hybrid approach with scheduled PvP windows. Check if your server version supports time-based PvP toggling in the configuration file, allowing PvP during certain hours and PvE during off-peak times.

Map Settings

Myth of Empires features multiple map regions that represent different areas of the game world. The MapID setting determines which map your server runs. Available maps depend on the game version and any DLC content.

[ServerSetting]
MapID=1

Consult the official Myth of Empires documentation or community resources for the full list of available MapID values, as they may change with game updates. The default map (MapID=1) is suitable for most communities starting out.

Gathering and XP Rates

Rate multipliers control the speed of resource gathering, experience gain, and crafting. Adjusting these values can significantly change the pace of gameplay on your server.

[RateSetting]
ExpRate=1.0
GatherRate=1.0
CraftSpeedRate=1.0
TamingSpeedRate=1.0
CharacterDamageRate=1.0
StructureDamageRate=1.0
NpcDamageRate=1.0
DurabilityRate=1.0
HungerRate=1.0
StaminaRate=1.0

Rate Settings Explained

Setting Default Description
ExpRate 1.0 Experience gain multiplier. Set to 2.0-5.0 for faster leveling.
GatherRate 1.0 Resource gathering multiplier. Higher values yield more materials per harvest action.
CraftSpeedRate 1.0 Crafting speed multiplier. Higher values reduce crafting time.
TamingSpeedRate 1.0 Animal taming speed multiplier. Set to 2.0+ for faster taming.
HungerRate 1.0 Hunger depletion rate. Lower values (e.g., 0.5) make food last longer.
StaminaRate 1.0 Stamina depletion rate. Lower values reduce stamina drain.

How to Connect to Your Server

Method 1: In-Game Server Browser

  1. Launch Myth of Empires.
  2. From the main menu, select Private Server or Server List.
  3. Switch to the Private Server tab if available.
  4. Use the search bar to find your server by name.
  5. Select your server and click Join. Enter the server password if prompted.

Method 2: Direct Connect via IP

  1. Launch Myth of Empires.
  2. From the server browser, look for a Direct Connect or Add Server option.
  3. Enter your server's IP address and game port (e.g., 123.45.67.89:12888).
  4. Click Connect and enter the password if required.

Method 3: Steam Server Browser

  1. Open Steam and navigate to View > Game Servers.
  2. Click the Favorites tab, then Add a Server.
  3. Enter your server's IP and query port (e.g., 123.45.67.89:27015).
  4. Add the server to favorites and connect from there.
Connection Issues? Make sure you are using the correct IP and port from your GPanel dashboard. Your server will be assigned a random port unless you have a private IP. The game port and query port are different -- the game port is for direct connections while the query port is for the server browser. See How to Find Your Server IP and Port for details.

Save Management

Myth of Empires automatically saves world data at regular intervals. Understanding save management is critical for protecting your community's progress.

Auto-Save

The server performs automatic saves at configured intervals (typically every 10-30 minutes). You can verify or adjust the auto-save interval in the server configuration if such an option is available.

Manual Saves

Admins can force a manual save using GM commands in-game or via RCON. Always trigger a manual save before shutting down the server or making configuration changes.

Backup Procedure

  1. Stop the server from GPanel to ensure all data is written to disk.
  2. Connect to the server via SFTP.
  3. Navigate to the save data directory (check the server's Saved/ or equivalent folder).
  4. Download the entire save directory to your local machine.
  5. Label backups with the date (e.g., MoE-Backup-2026-02-26) for easy identification.
Warning: Deleting save files is permanent and irreversible. Always maintain at least one backup before making changes that could affect world data, such as map changes, version updates, or world resets.

World Wipe / Reset

To perform a complete world reset:

  1. Stop the server.
  2. Back up the current save data via SFTP (in case you want to restore later).
  3. Delete the contents of the save data directory.
  4. Restart the server. A fresh world will be generated.

Troubleshooting First Start Issues

Issue Solution
Server not appearing in browser Wait 5-10 minutes for Steam to register the server. Verify query port settings. Try connecting via direct IP.
Server crashes on startup Check for config syntax errors. Ensure MapID is valid. Try restoring default configuration files.
Long first startup Initial world generation can take 5-10 minutes. Do not interrupt the process.
Players cannot connect Verify the game port matches GPanel settings. Ensure the server is fully started (check console for ready messages). Confirm the game version matches between client and server.
Config changes not applied Ensure the server was fully stopped before editing. Check that you are editing the correct config file. Startup variables in GPanel may override config file values.
