Rent a tModLoader Server

tModLoader is comparatively lightweight — 1 GB RAM is enough for vanilla gameplay. For mod-heavy setups with many content mods, we recommend 2-4 GB RAM. Memory requirements grow proportionally to the number and size of installed mods.

tModLoader uses the integrated mod browser and CurseForge as sources. Transfer the mod files (.tmod) into the Mods folder on the server. Important: mods must be identical on both server and client — otherwise players cannot join.

8 simultaneous players are set by default; you can change the number in the panel (MAX_PLAYERS), and Terraria itself allows up to 255. For larger groups we recommend more RAM.

tModLoader offers three world sizes: Small (1), Medium (2), and Large (3). Small or Medium is enough to get started — large worlds need more storage and longer loading times. You set the size when creating the world.

Your tModLoader server is ready to go within minutes. In the control panel you configure world size, password, and player count. You transfer mods to the mods folder via the file manager and activate them through the enabled.json.

Yes, Calamity, Thorium, Spirit, and many other large content mods run on tModLoader. For Calamity alone we recommend at least 2 GB RAM; for Calamity combined with Thorium, 3–4 GB. All players need exactly the same mod versions — when a mod updates, both server and client must update simultaneously.

Yes. Every server includes a subdomain like my-server.gs.game-serverhosting.com, and you can change it anytime in the dashboard.

For every server you enable Uptime Kuma (server monitoring) and Game Server Watcher (server status in Discord/Telegram) with one click in the dashboard at no extra cost, plus one bot such as Sinusbot (music bot for Discord/TeamSpeak). Every additional bot costs extra.

Typical initial setup: about 3 minutes. Queues or large installations can take longer. Setup creates the subdomain and DNS records automatically, and for Minecraft also accepts the EULA and installs Geyser.

There is no long-term minimum. Billing is a monthly subscription and automatic renewal can be disabled. Longer terms may qualify for discounts.

You choose the location at checkout: Germany (Falkenstein and Limburg) or France (Roubaix) — all in the EU, connected to the major European exchanges. Low pings for players across Germany, Austria and Switzerland at both locations, and solid latency for the rest of Europe.

The best provider is the one that shows you what you get before you pay: RAM, slots, location, price and cancellation terms. Here the price and resources are visible in the configurator before checkout, there is no minimum term and setup is automated — feel free to compare that with other offers. tModLoader starts here at 2.69 EUR per month, and setup typically takes about 3 minutes.

Self-hosting costs power, time and a machine that runs around the clock; port forwarding, updates and backups are on you. A rented server is online within minutes, keeps running when your PC is off, and updates and backups are included; data-center DDoS protection is included at every location. For one or two friends on a single evening self-hosting is often fine — for a persistent world, renting pays off.

Yes, you can do it yourself in the customer area using a slider. An upgrade takes effect immediately: you only pay the prorated difference for the remaining term, and the new price applies from the next renewal. A downgrade takes effect on the next renewal date. Your world, settings and subdomain are kept, and depending on the game, a restart is required afterwards. With monthly payment and a minimum term, the change is only possible once that term has ended, and for games with a slot-based plan it is not available.
