7D2D Upload Custom Map

To upload a custom generated 7 Days to Die map to your server you will need to first check out our guide on how to use the program NitroGen. You will also want to familiarize yourself with FTP Access.

Below are the steps to upload your custom map to your server:

1. Connect to your servers FTP directory
2. Upload the folder generated by NitroGen to the following directory Data\Worlds

Once you have uploaded the world files to the server you will now need to alter a few lines inside of the serverconfig.xml file in order to start using the new map! Those steps can be found below!

For this example assume the world that was generated with NirtoGen was called TestWorld

1. Connect to your servers FTP directory
2. Open up or download your servers serverconfig.xml to begin editing it.
3. Search your config file for the following line <property name="GameWorld" value="RWG"/> or <property name="GameWorld" value="Navezgane"/>
4. Then change the value of this field to be the name of the map that you uploaded, for this example the line would look like this: <property name="GameWorld" value="TestWorld"/>
5. Once you have finished editing the config save the file and reupload it via FTP!
6. The last step is so start your server using either the small start button or the green "Save Settings and Restart Game Server" button (If using this button be sure to check the "Skip Save Config" option)
