How much RAM does a Valheim server need?

Remarkably lightweight. 2-4 players need just 2GB. Full 10 players, 2-4GB. With mods like Valheim Plus, 3-4GB. One of the most efficient survival game servers to host.

Does Valheim support crossplay?

Yes, between Steam and Xbox Game Pass PC versions. Enable crossplay on the server and players join using a join code. Xbox console also supports crossplay with PC.

Yes, via BepInEx. Install BepInEx, add mod DLLs to plugins folder. Valheim Plus is the most popular server mod. Manage mods through Thunderstore or r2modman. Many mods require both server and client installation.

Can more than 10 players join?

Default limit is 10, but community mods increase this to 30+. Performance degrades with more players during boss fights or heavily built areas. Most communities play 4-8 for the best experience.

How do I transfer my single-player world?

Upload the .fwl and .db files from your local saves to the server's worlds directory. The world loads exactly as it was. Player inventories are stored locally on each player's machine.
