How To Change Your 7D2D Server Version

Here is how you can change your 7D2D version for both your server and game client.

Change 7D2D Server Version

Changing the server version is only available with 7D2D Vanilla versions. As mods only work with specific versions of 7D2D, we enforce those server versions for those particular mods.

1. Access the Game Host Bros Panel and select your 7D2D server.
2. Go to Configuration > Startup Parameters.
3. Under Advanced Look for Server Version Branch and replace it with the version you want to use (A list of versions is below).
4. In the sidebar select Configuration > Server Actions.
5. Click Reinstall Server.

Danger

Changing server versions may cause issues with your world file so make sure you always take a backup first.

Set Auto Update to Disabled, if you’re choosing a branch that does not receive updates.
