Servers4Gamers gives customers full access to server files, enabling any level of game server personalization. Upon logging into our control panel, you’ll notice a range of tabs, including the “Files” tab, which will help you manage your game server. Our users can easily create new files and folders directly from the web interface, which is useful for configuring servers and mods. The tab also allows for the editing of existing text files, facilitating the easy modification of server configuration files. From the “Files” tab, you can also delete unnecessary files and folders, perform bulk operations on files, and change file permissions directly from the interface.

1. How to create a new server file
In the upper right corner of the window, select “New File“
A new window will appear for the content you want to include in the file. Enter the text and, optionally, select the type of markup highlighting (JSON, XML, etc.) and confirm the changes with the “SAVE CONTENT” button
In the new floating window, enter a file name and confirm your decision with the “CREATE FILE” button
2. How to create a new server file directory
In the upper right corner of the window, select “Create Directory“
Enter directory name in the new floating window and select “Create“
3. How to move a server file
In this example, we will move the English.json file from the “lang” folder to the “logs” folder
Click on the three dots to the right of the file. From the task menu, select “Move“
In the “FILE NAME” window, enter the following phrase:
../<other_folder_name>/<file_name>
Select “MOVE” to move the file

7. How to upload a server file

If you want to upload a file larger than 100 MB, you must use the SFTP protocol!

Click on three dots and select “Delete” option
Confirm your choice with “Delete” button

You should see a new floating window – this is place to define numeric file permission. Approve with “UPDATE” button
