About SelfServr
Guides and tools for hosting dedicated game servers on your own hardware.
What SelfServr does
Running a game server for you and your friends usually means downloading server files from an unfamiliar tool, digging through a wiki for the right port number, and hand-editing a config file whose format nobody explains properly. SelfServr exists to make that part boring instead of confusing. For each supported game, it provides:
- A hardware compatibility checker -- enter your CPU, RAM and storage and see how they compare against the game's published requirements.
- A step-by-step setup guide -- getting the server files, required ports, and the exact command to start it.
- A config generator -- fill in a form and download a ready-to-use config file, for games where we have one.
- Connection troubleshooting -- for when the server runs fine locally but players can't connect.
Where the facts come from
Technical claims on this site -- hardware requirements, ports, SteamCMD app IDs, config file keys -- are sourced from official developer/publisher documentation wherever one exists, with a link to it shown alongside the claim. Several developers don't publish a formal dedicated-server specification at all; where that's the case, pages say so explicitly and fall back to community wikis or hosting-provider guides, clearly labelled rather than presented as official. The compatibility checker's CPU database is BuildCores' open CPU database, not SelfServr's own testing.
Where a config generator's source format couldn't be independently verified against a real generated file, the generator page says so, so you know to double-check before relying on it.
Who runs this
SelfServr is an independent, personally-run hobby project -- not a registered company, and not staffed by a team. See the Privacy Policy for more on that, or use the contact page to get in touch.
