Understand the server config

Arma Reforger uses one JSON file. Here is what each block controls.

4 min read

Everything lives in a single config.json. The panel gives you a form for the common fields and a raw editor for the rest.

  • bindAddress and bindPort — leave as the panel set them.
  • game.name — the name in the server browser.
  • game.password — set for a private server, empty for public.
  • game.passwordAdmin — your admin password. Change it from the default.
  • game.maxPlayers — slot count.
  • game.crossPlatform — true lets Xbox players in. See the crossplay article for the catch.
  • game.gameProperties.serverMaxViewDistance — the biggest performance lever you have.
  • operating.disableCrashReporter and lobbyPlayerSynchronise — leave at defaults unless told otherwise.
