Official and private game server hosting by GPORTAL.
Getting started with your Private Remnants Server
Create a directory for the downloaded files C:\SteamCMD for example.
Double-click the file you just downloaded and let it extract all the files which will then be placed inside the new C:\SteamCMD folder. It should end up looking like this:
If you are running another OS, the check the SteamCMD page for more info.
Method 1
- Launch the steamcmd executable.
- Once that load there’s a Steam> prompt.
- Type: login anonymous
Once that is logged in and you see the Steam> prompt again it’s time to update files for Conan
- Type: app_update 1141420
The files will then download and you can see the progress as they come down.
Once that is concluded type “exit” to leave SteamCMD.
Important note: To update the files in the future follow the above then login and type app_update 1141420.
Method 2
Create a file in SteamCMD folder and name it RemnantsServerDownload.bat and then edit the file to contain the blow text.
@echo off
start steamcmd.exe +login anonymous +force_install_dir C:\RemnantsDedicatedServer +app_update 1141420 validate +quit
Run this .bat file to update or install.
Setting up
Now the files are installed it’s time to set things up and running on your server.
Inside this folder C:\RemnantsDedicatedServer there is file called StartServer.bat. Click this to launch the server. Once it’s completed you can close down the server and it’s time to start setting the server config,
The StartServer.bat can also be configured to change Ports and set a MultiHome.
-MultiHome=176.57.135.59 -Port=7777 -QueryPort=27015
Go to the folder C:\RemnantsDedicatedServer\Remnants\Saved\Config\WindowsServer
Open the file ServerConfig.ini in notepad if there’s no file just create one and name it ServerConfig.ini.
The ini file should look like below

Important note: Ports 27015 and 7777 need to be opened on your server to allow communication with your server so check your firewall or anything that could potentially block these ports.
Another point to note is that you may have issues if you are running the Steam client on the same machine you are running the server on. Shut down the Steam client.
