How to Setup a Dedicated Server for Arma Reforger

!!DONT ASK ME QUESTIONS!!
This guide wasn't made by me: I thought it would help people to post this here because it's very hard to find stuff about dedicated servers (or anything helpful about Arma Reforger) right now~

Original: http://armaverseproject.com/reforgerserver.html



To start a reforger server in Windows, create bat file ("start.bat") in your reforger folder (e.g. S:\Games\ArmaReforger\) and right click "Edit". Add this:

cd S:\Games\ArmaReforger\
start /wait /REALTIME ArmaReforgerServer.exe -config "S:\Games\ArmaReforger\server.json" -profile ArmaReforgerServer

Now create a new file called "server.json" in the same folder and change the entries highlighted



(((((SETTINGS ARE EDITED BY ME ((TOILET)) SO IT WOULD WORK ON MOST SYSTEMS WITHOUT ANY ISSUES))))

{
"dedicatedServerId": "ar-gm-%profilename",
"region": "TH",
"gameHostBindAddress": "YOUR LOCAL IP (ex: 192.168.x.x)",
"gameHostBindPort": 2001,
"gameHostRegisterBindAddress": "YOUR PUBLIC IP (ex: 174.91.x.x)",
"gameHostRegisterPort": 2001,
"adminPassword" : "PASSWORD",
"game": {
"name": "NAME GOES HERE",
"scenarioId": "{59AD59368755F41A}Missions/21_GM_Eden.conf",
"playerCountLimit": 16,
"visible": true,
"gameMode": "",
"supportedGameClientTypes": [
"PLATFORM_PC",
"PLATFORM_XBL"
],
"gameProperties": {
"serverMaxViewDistance": 1600,
"battleEye": false,
"fastValidation": true
},
"mods": [
]
}
}

Now start the server with double click on start.bat. You should add UDP port 2001 to your firewall (both ways).

This is a quick and dirty list. I will update (and format) if there are more infos. Last updated 2130 CEST on 17.05.2022.
