Atlas

Config Generator

Fill in the fields below to generate a ready-to-use GameUserSettings.ini for your Atlas dedicated server. For the full setup walkthrough -- getting the server files, required ports and starting it up -- see the Atlas setup guide. Not sure your hardware is up to it? Check compatibility first.

ATLAS shares ARK: Survival Evolved's GameUserSettings.ini format (same studio, forked engine). World/grid layout is a separate ServerGrid.json that Grapeshot's own ServerGridEditor tool is meant to generate -- hand-editing that file risks breaking the whole cluster, so it isn't covered here.

Source: Community-documented, based on ATLAS sharing ARK: Survival Evolved's GameUserSettings.ini format (same developer, forked engine); Grapeshot doesn't publish a separate formal reference for ATLAS specifically.

Server running but nobody can join?

A wrong or missing setting in this file isn't the only reason players can't connect -- see the connection troubleshooting guide for port forwarding, firewall and CGNAT issues.
