Vintage Story updates are handled through the server egg and reinstall process on the control panel. Reinstalling refreshes the server files for the selected release branch/version.
Â
- Open your Vintage Story server in the control panel.
- Stop the server and take a backup before changing version or reinstalling server files.
- If you need a specific release branch or version, click Startup and update the release options first. Leaving the version blank will use the egg's default/latest behaviour for that branch.
- Click the Settings tab.
- Click Reinstall Server and confirm the reinstall.

- Wait for the install to finish, then start the server again.
Â
If the server does not start after an update, check the console first. Outdated mods are one of the most common causes after a version change.
