Project Zomboid Servers on HypeServ

Everything you need to host and manage a Project Zomboid server on HypeServ.

Welcome to the HypeServ Project Zomboid Wiki: Your knowledgebase for hosting and managing Project Zomboid servers on HypeServ.

About Project Zomboid

Project Zomboid server configuration can be complex, involving multiple configuration files, sandbox variables, and extensive Steam Workshop integration. This wiki is written to stay practical and stable: we focus on what you can do on the HypeServ panel and provide straightforward guides to get your apocalyptic survival world running smoothly.

Project Zomboid relies heavily on community mods, which can occasionally break during major game updates (such as the transition to new Builds). If your server suddenly refuses to start, check the Troubleshooting section first, or reach out to support and we’ll help you quickly.
