Generally, new players can get bored of the game very quickly because they cannot keep up with the dynamics of the game. For this reason, many people are looking for ways to open a <\/span><b>Rust server.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Opening a private server is of great importance to avoid the problems encountered in Rust's online games. In this way, you can train with your friends or alone in Rust and try to learn the game better.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"media-934\" class=\"align-none\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/skinsmonkey.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/modified-servers.jpg\" alt=\"modified servers\" \/><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In today's article, we will talk about how you can<\/span><b> open your own dedicated Rust server.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> First you need to know that we have two methods. The first method is paid and requires you to purchase <\/span><b>a dedicated Rust server. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The second method is difficult and complex. Because you will need to host the <\/span><b>Rust server<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> folder on your own computer, it is possible to encounter performance problems.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Now if you're ready, let's get started and take a quick look at the details of opening a Rust server.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>The Easiest Method: Buying Rust Dedicated Server Hosting<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">First of all, if it is not a paid method you are looking for, you can skip this method directly. If you do not want to deal with it and do not want to waste time, we definitely recommend this method to you. You can <\/span><b>set up your Rust server <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">by buying a private dedicated server with a few minutes of operation.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><b>Why Should I Use Rust Dedicated Server Hosting?<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">As we mentioned at the beginning of our article, opening a Rust server is a very good way to learn the game and understand the basic mechanics. Now we will talk about why you will need to use a paid hosting server step by step.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In the hard method, you will experience performance problems as the Rust server files will be hosted on your own computer. Especially playing Rust and <\/span><b>opening a Rust server<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> at the same time will consume your computer's resources incredibly.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">When you open a Rust dedicated server, the internet speed you use on your computer will be consumed quickly, just like your PC performance. So it is very possible that you will encounter ping problems while playing the game.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Another problem is that if you are not using a private hosting, your friends will only be able to enter the server whenever you want. However, you will not encounter such problems with <\/span><b>dedicated Rust server<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> hosting services. Your server will be open 24\/7.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><b>Buying Private Rust Server Hosting<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">It is possible to buy a Rust dedicated server where you can host hundreds of people and never experience performance problems. All you need to do is to find a reliable hosting company.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If you want to have a server in Rust, you can find dozens of hosting companies with a simple Google search. The cost of starting a Rust server is between $10 and $30 per month.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">As you can see, this method is the easiest and fastest way to host a Rust server. Now, if you want, let's switch to the free and difficult method.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">However, we would like to warn you at this point. Because it can be really challenging, be careful to do all the steps one by one. If you're ready, let's start.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Advanced Method: Setting Up Your Own Rust Dedicated Server<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Now we come to the difficult and complex method. If paying to open a Rust dedicated server is not for you, it is a soluton. We prepared a special instruction how to do it on your own computer. Let's look at the details.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Rust Server Requirements<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">First of all, you need to learn the system requirements necessary to open a Rust dedicated server. If the specifications of your system are not compatible with the values here, we strongly recommend that you do not host a server.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">64-Bit Windows 7, 8, or 10<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">4GB Ram (8GB would be better)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Minimum 6GB drive space<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If you are going <\/span><b>to set up the Rust server <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">to the computer where you are playing the game, it is recommended to have 8GB of RAM or more. If you are going <\/span><b>to set the Rust server folder <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">to a different location other than the PC where you play the game, then 4GB Ram will be enough.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>How to Install SteamCMD?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Now that we are ready to start, the first thing we need to learn is the SteamCMD installation. SteamCMD in short is a command prompt program for Steam. Follow the steps below for installation.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">You must download and install SteamCMD on Windows, Linux and MacOS. You can find the current versions from these links.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">After downloading the program, right click and click &#8220;Extract to steamcmd&#8221;. Then you will see that a new folder has been created on the desktop.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<figure id=\"media-935\" class=\"align-none\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/skinsmonkey.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/steamcmd-file-location.jpg\" alt=\"steamcmd file location\" \/><\/figure>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Now go ahead and open the folder and run steamcmd. After clicking it, the command window will open and start doing a few updates. Be patient and wait for the update to finish.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<figure id=\"media-936\" class=\"align-none\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/skinsmonkey.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/rust-dedicated-server-files-2.jpg\" alt=\"rust dedicated server files 2\" \/><\/figure>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">After all the update processes are completed, you need to login. For this, you must login using the &#8220;login anonymous&#8221; command.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<figure id=\"media-937\" class=\"align-none\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/skinsmonkey.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/following-command.jpg\" alt=\"following command\" \/><\/figure>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Never close this command window when transitioning to a new phase. You will handle all your transactions here.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><b>Rust Dedicated Server Setup<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Here we will determine where<\/span><b> to install Rust server files.<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">You should come to the command window we left open and specify a target folder where you will run your server. The command you need to enter is: \u201cforce_install_dir C:\\steamcmd\\rust_server\u201d . You can change it according to you.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">When the folder determination process is completed, start your server setup with the &#8220;app_update 258550 validate&#8221; command. At this point, the installation may take 5-10 minutes.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<figure id=\"media-938\" class=\"align-none\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/skinsmonkey.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/server-console.jpg\" alt=\"server console\" \/><\/figure>\n<h3><b>Server Update Settings<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If you want to add new updates to Rust to the server you opened, you must enter some commands.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In contrast, to\u00a0 receive beta updates, you need to enter the &#8220;app_update 258550 validate&#8221; command.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Another beta update command is: \u201capp_update 258550 -beta staging\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This is the command you need to enter your server to get the latest pre-release updates; \u201capp_update 258550 -beta prerelease\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Rust Oxide and Mod Setup<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">You may need to mod to maximize the experience on your Rust server. If you want to install great addons on your server, you need to learn how to use Rust Oxide.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Rust Oxide is extremely simple to install. You can follow the steps below;<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Download the latest version of uMod here.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Before starting the installation process, make sure your server is completely turned off.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Extract the Oxide Zip file.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">After opening the Oxide zip file, you will see a folder named RustDedicated_Data. You should paste this into the folder where your Rust server is installed. Click on the overwrite folder as it will be from the same file.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">When the process is finished, click RustDedicated.exe and run it. It will take a while to install here. Test if your installation works by typing &#8220;Oxide.version&#8221;.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><b>Rust Dedicated Server Run and Configuration<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">We have made all the adjustments and now you are ready to run your server. We won't have to deal with a lot of command lines in this section. You can run your server directly by following the steps below.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">First find where your Rust server folder is installed. It looks like the one in the picture below.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<figure id=\"media-939\" class=\"align-none\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/skinsmonkey.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/modified-servers-oxide.jpg\" alt=\"modified servers oxide\" \/><\/figure>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If you want to start your server, you should click on the &#8220;RustDedicated.exe&#8221; text. Then the Rust client will open and a command window will open again. You have to wait for a while for the download to finish. After 3-5 minutes, you are ready to connect to the server.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">When you open the server, the procedural map, vanilla Rust, will be opened. If you want to modify it, we have already explained how to use Oxide Rust.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><b>Batch Update Server Files<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If you want to use your server for a long time, you need to know how to update batch files. Instead of dealing with it one by one, you can make your server more stable by applying the method we will explain below.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Open the folder where your server is installed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Create a new text document by right-clicking on an empty area.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">And add these command lines to the text document.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cC:\\steamcmd\\\\steamcmd.exe<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">login anonymous<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">force_install_dir \u201cC:\\steamcmd\\rust_server\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">app_update 258550 validate<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">quit<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Then click &#8220;File&#8221; in the upper left part of the text and say &#8220;Save As&#8221;. Don't forget to change the name to &#8220;update.bat&#8221; when saving the file. Delete the text document after all operations are complete. That's all the transactions. You can click update.bat whenever you want to update.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Run Server Batch File<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Now we come to edit the details of your server. Here we will make specific settings for your server.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">First, create a new text document in your Rust Server folder. Then open the text document and type the following commands one by one.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><b>@echo<\/b> <strong>off<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><b>cls<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>:start<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>RustDedicated.exe<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>-nographics<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>-batchmode<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>-silent -crashes<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>+server.ip \u201c(fill in your server ip)\u201d<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>+server.identity \u201c(fill in your server identity)\u201d<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>+server.port 28015<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>+rcon.port 28016<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>+rcon.password \u201cfill in a password\u201d<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>-logfile \u201cServerLog.txt\u201d<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>+rcon.web true<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>-logfile \u201coutput.txt\u201d<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>goto start<\/b><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><b>Important Note: Do not enclose the information in parentheses when filling in the information according to you.<\/b><\/p>\n<figure id=\"media-940\" class=\"align-none\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/skinsmonkey.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/following-command-2.jpg\" alt=\"following command 2\" \/><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If you have entered the commands and you are done, go to &#8220;File&#8221; and click &#8220;Save as&#8221; to save the file as Run.bat. Now that the save process is finished, you can remove the old text document. Now what you have to do is click Run.bat and run the batch file .<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Batch File Commands for Rust Dedicated Servers<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In a previous topic, we talked about how to create a batch script file. There were multiple commands in the batch script file we created. It is important that you know what these commands mean. Thus, read this guide until the end to know the meanings of individual commands.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Echo off<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">: This command instructs the server not to display all batch instructions that have been executed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>:start<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">: The starting point of the server.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Goto start<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">: This is the command that tells the server to restart after shutting down.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>-batchmode<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">: It will open Unity in non-GUI mode.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>+server.port 28015<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">: Runs Rust's default port.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>+server.seed<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">: This is a command that works with the Y Minecraft logic. It determines how the Procedural Map will be set up. The value range of Y is 0-2147483647.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>+server.level Procedural Map<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">: Allows you to specify the map of the server. For example, maps such as SavasIsland, Barren and HapisIsland can be used.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>+server.worldsize Y<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">: You can specify the size of the World by entering a number between 1000 and 6000.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>+server.maxplayers Y<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">: You can choose how many people can enter for the Rust dedicated server you have opened.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>+server.hostname \u201cName\u201d<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">: In the Name field, you can write what you want to appear in the server list.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">+<\/span><b>server.description \u201cDescription\u201d<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">: You can show the description of your server in the server list.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>+server.url \u201chttps:\/\/<\/b> <b>website.com<\/b><b>\u201d<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">: If your Rust Server has a website, you can write it in the blank.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>+server.headerimage \u201cImage link\u201d<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">: It is the command that you can change the background image of the server's connection point in the server list. Just paste the image link you uploaded into the blank.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>+rcon.port 28016<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">: Specifies the Rcon port for Client Connection.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>+rcon.password \u201c123456\u201d<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">: You can use encryption to access Rcon. When you create a password, you do not need to use special characters.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>How Can I Connect to Dedicated Rust Server?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If you have installed your server on the computer where you are playing the game, what we will do is a little easy. If you are going to connect from a separate PC, you need to follow the steps below.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Connecting From Your Own Computer<\/b><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Launch Rust from the desktop or from your Steam library.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">After the Game Homepage opens, press F1 to open the console.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Type &#8220;client.connect<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400\">localhost:28015<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">&#8221; in the Console section and wait to connect to the server.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<figure id=\"media-941\" class=\"align-none\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/skinsmonkey.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/server-connection-window.jpg\" alt=\"server connection window\" \/><\/figure>\n<h3><b>Connecting to Your Own Server from Another Computer<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">When connecting from another computer, you need to find the IP address of the server. However, remember that the internet connection of the computer where the server is installed is important. If you are not connected to that internet, you will not be able to login to the server.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If you want to connect from outside the network, you need to do port forwarding.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">When your computer is on you need to press the Windows + R key on the keyboard. Type \u201ccmd\u201d in the box that opens and press Enter and click OK.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Type \u201cipconfig\u201d on the command page that opens and press Enter.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">You need to find the IPv4 address. Copy it with CTRL+C when you find it.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Then run Rust again and press F1 on the main page to open the console. Paste the address you copied here (client.connect<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400\">localhost:28015<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">) instead of<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400\">localhost<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> and log in.

Opening a server with the limited resources your computer can provide can cause some problems. On the other hand, using Rust dedicated server hosting is fast and easy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">As a result, we summarize the pros and cons of the two methods one last time. In this way, you can make your own decision as you wish.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Dedicated Rust Servers: Results<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Open a dedicated Vanilla Rust server when you plan to play with a few friends.
