In this guide, we will see how to modify the configuration of your Palworld adventure. These settings will allow you to create a unique gaming experience. To do this, you first need the best Palworld host, capable of supporting all your customizations.
In summary: Configuration is done via the file PalWorldSettings.ini located in the folder /Pal/Saved/Config/WindowsServer/.
⚠️ IMPORTANT: Make sure your server is OFF via the Hosterfy panel when you modify the configuration. If you modify the file while the server is running, your changes will be overwritten on restart and lost.
I. Copying the initial configuration file
To begin, copy the content of the file DefaultPalWorldSettings.ini located at the root of your server. If you have already performed this operation previously, you can skip to chapter II.
Then go to the folder /Pal/Saved/Config/WindowsServer and open the file named PalWorldSettings.ini.
Finally, delete all content and paste the previously copied content.
It is important to ensure:
- Do not add extra blank lines.
- Do not add line breaks between different configurations.
- Keep quotes, commas, and parentheses.
