Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about our Vintage Story hosting services
Most mods can be installed directly from the server console with a single command - no file uploads required. For mods that need manual installation, you can upload them via SFTP. Check our Vintage Story mod installation guide in the help center for step-by-step instructions.
For vanilla gameplay with a few players, 4GB is a solid starting point. Modded servers or larger groups are typically more comfortable at 6-8GB. Our Vintage Story RAM guide on the blog breaks down what we've seen across real servers.
Vintage Story features dynamic seasons that affect temperature, crop growth, animal behavior, and survival difficulty. Our servers maintain consistent seasonal progression.
We never limit player slots - you can set as many as you want! However, you may experience performance issues with lower amounts of memory. Our plans can be upgraded or downgraded at any point to match your player count and performance needs.
Yes, we perform automated backups twice daily and retain them for 45 days. You can also create your own backups at any time through SFTP or the file manager.
No setup fees! Your server will be deployed instantly after payment confirmation and you can start your vintage survival journey right away.
Our One Tier approach gives you access to high performance hosting without an upsell. This means you get the performance you expect for less.
No. We use a fair-usage model instead of hard CPU caps, which means your server can use the resources it needs when it needs them - like during chunk generation or player surges. We actively manage our node health to make sure that burst capacity is always available. For full hardware details, see our server hardware specifications page in the help center.
Every plan includes a baseline storage allocation on NVMe SSDs, and if you need more, we'll increase it for free - just open a ticket. Automated backups are stored separately and don't count toward your allocation.
Yes, your server runs 24/7 regardless of whether players are connected. It's always available for players to join at any time. All servers include DDoS protection and are backed by a 99.9% uptime guarantee.
Self-hosting ties your server to your home connection and hardware. If your PC sleeps, crashes, or your internet drops, everyone loses access. Vintage Story's seasonal simulation and world generation run constantly, even when no one is actively playing. Dedicated Vintage Story server hosting keeps your world running 24/7 on hardware built for sustained loads, with stable connections for players across different regions.
Vintage Story updates frequently and mod compatibility can lag behind new releases. With dedicated hosting, you control exactly when your server updates, so you can wait until your mod collection is confirmed compatible before upgrading. You can also run specific game versions indefinitely. This is especially important for heavily modded servers where even one broken dependency can prevent the world from loading.
Vintage Story worlds grow in complexity over time as seasons cycle, crops grow, and terrain gets modified. A world that runs for months accumulates significant save data. Dedicated server hosting with unmetered storage means your world can grow naturally without hitting arbitrary limits. Regular automated backups also protect months of progress from corruption or accidental damage.
Vintage Story simulates weather, crop growth, soil nutrients, and temporal storms server-side, which creates steady CPU demand even during quiet moments. Home connections often struggle with this persistent load alongside actual gameplay. Dedicated Vintage Story server hosting provides consistent CPU resources without throttling, so the simulation runs smoothly whether your server has 2 players or 20.

Radhiyya Ihsan
I used this service from Indonesia to host a Discord bot, but unfortunately the server location is too far from my region. This resulted in higher latency and slower response times, which affected the bot’s performance, especially for real-time commands. The setup process was fairly straightforward, and the service itself worked as expected, but the distance to the server made it less ideal for my use case. For applications like Discord bots that rely on quick responses, server location plays a big role. In terms of uptime, there were occasional unexpected downtimes. However, I appreciate that the support team was quite responsive and helpful whenever issues occurred. It may still be a good option for users closer to their server regions, but for users in Indonesia, I recommend choosing a provider with servers in Asia for better performance.

Site - 32 an SCP : SL Roleplay Server.
Excellent and dedicated support. When my server couldn't be set up properly due to an outside issue the support had done everything within their power, and I mean everything. As much as they couldn't resolve the issue, due to a issue to do with the official game makers!! Not to do with an issue with the providers of WinterNode, they had still exhausted all options until they were 100% sure that it was not an issue they could resolve, and directed me to the correct resources to have my issue resolved. The game panel is also incredibly easy to use and has some lovely design. With server info and diagnostics for memory usage and CPU usage very well displayed and quite quick with updates. WinterNode is also incredibly affordable for a good server plan, especially for new server owners. As well as customizable with the pricing - being able to switch between levels of RAM available to buy ranging from 2GB to 25GB typically. WinterNode also provides a nice range of countries to select for their servers, including the United States, Australia, United Kingdom, Germany, Finland and France. WinterNode also provides services for premium-tier Discord Bots, VPS Hosting, Game hosting and Web Hosting. For game hosting, WinterNode provides game servers from commonly large games including Minecraft, Terraria, ARK : Survival Evolved, Palworld and Hytale. Alongside less typically provided games, like SCP : Secret Laboratory which is what I am personally hosting using WinterNode. In my opinion WinterNode has easily outpaced larger service providers like Shockbyte, Bisect and other large titles. I would like to finish this by shouting out Darius from the support team, thank you for using quite the abundance of options you had attempted on my server. As much as it was not resolved, that can not be blamed on you but on Northwood (The creators of SCP:SL) haha.

So many amazing things about WinterNode, First off the pricing is amazing I believe it’s the cheapest on the market and they hold up to the standards they say if I ask for 8gb of memory they gave me 8.2gb they are always making sure I get what I paid for! Next the best thing about it is there Quality of service and Friendliness!!! They respond in less then an hour and are willing to run you step by step and explain why they do the things the way they do it!! They are also really friendly probably the most friendly service I have ever had! I used a discord ticket and they got back to me within the hour! They helped solve problems and ran the extra mile to make sure it worked!!! Brandon helped me on discord that guy is so amazing kind and friendly Honesly you need to give him a raise!!! Best customer service ever!!!

After the fall of Ramshard, Winternode came to be our go-to server hosting for Minecraft. Support was quick, servers were always running, with no downtown and a lot of fun and easy setup. I would recommend Winternode to anyone looking to host some kind of video game server, especially Minecraft.

Staff assisted me with troubleshooting the cause of my server crashing. They identified what I needed to look at in the logs, and assured it was a valid error to look into. Staff is extremely reliable, patience, and knowledgeable.
olahgito
good experience overall no lag prices not too high
Conre Cohen
the UI is easy to understand although there are times that the server can run slow but it's just a terraria game, we dont require lower pings so it did not matter that much
James
great help from the customer support, had some problems setting up the server at first but within 5 minutes i had some support who helped a hell of alot, server quality is also very good and stable. would recommend over other hosts
Frank P
Always get quickly, friendly, and helpfully advice. They may not have all the answers when it comes to certain mods but they will always lead you in the right direction. I have nothing but good things to say when it came to an easy setup and ticketing system as well and any question I had. I highly recommend them for their positive attitudes and their competitive pricing!

Absolutely wonderful server hosting. I feel in control of my server. Very easy to manage and everything.
Darth Jack
Support helped me get my Minecraft bedrock server up and running, and diagnosed the multiple issues that were preventing it from working. Staff was very patient and clear in their explanation of the issue, and what I needed to do to resolve it. They get five stars only because that’s the highest rating that is allowed. If I could, they would get 10.
Diego Tino
I had mistyped email while creating my account, and they fixed it after I put in a ticket! they're very fast in their response time too!!
