Steam account, mods, missions and admin for your Arma 3 server.
Your Arma 3 server installs with a Steam account you enter in OuiPanel. After that, your mods and missions go through SFTP, and the admin password gives you the game's commands.

Arma 3 server hosting: frequently asked questions.
A question about your project? Our support answers 24/7.
Renting an Arma 3 server costs $3.46 to $17.38 per month depending on size, with Start 4 GB, Plus 8 GB, Pro 12 GB and Ultra 16 GB. The price includes DDoS protection, SFTP access, backups, MySQL databases and support. For cheap Arma 3 server hosting with friends, the Start plan is enough.
The best Arma 3 server hosting gives you enough memory for your mods, NVMe storage, SFTP access to your files and the option to switch plans without losing data. With us, DDoS protection up to 3 Tbps comes with every plan, from $3.46 to $17.38 per month, with support that answers 24/7.
Not with us. We offer neither free hosting nor a free trial. Hosting an Arma 3 server at home takes a PC that stays on, a good connection and several ports opened on your router. Renting an Arma 3 server from us starts at $3.46 per month, with no commitment.
With a host like OuiHeberg, pick a plan and a country, then pay. Next, enter a Steam account in the server settings, click Reinstall server, then join with direct connect in the Arma 3 launcher.Read the setup guide →
The Arma 3 dedicated server downloads with a Steam account, anonymous login is not accepted. During installation, your server therefore asks for an account, which you enter in the [Host] Steam Username (STEAM_USER) and [Host] Steam Password (STEAM_PASS) variables in OuiPanel before reinstalling the server. Steam Guard must be turned off on that account, otherwise the login fails. We recommend a secondary account created for this, rather than your main account.Read the setup guide →
It is stored in plain text in the server settings, in the [Host] Steam Password variable, and visible to sub-users who can open these settings. That is why we recommend a secondary Steam account. You set each sub-user's permissions in OuiPanel.
Bohemia recommends 4 GB for a server without mods. A common modset, with CBA, ACE and RHS or CUP, needs more, so plan on 8 GB. Large modsets and persistent missions go toward 12 or 16 GB. The processor matters too, as Arma 3's AI mostly loads a single core.
The number of players is adjustable, in the Max Players variable in OuiPanel. How many players your server really handles depends mostly on the mission, the AI and the mods.
In the Arma 3 launcher, open the server browser and use direct connect with the IP address and port shown in OuiPanel. Your players need the same mods as the server. If you set a password, the game asks for it.
No. Arma 3 is a PC game, on Steam. Our Arma 3 servers accept neither console players nor crossplay.
Two ways. Upload your mod folders, whose names start with @, to the server root over SFTP, copy their .bikey keys to the keys folder, then list the folders in the Additional Mods variable, separated by semicolons. Or, if the Steam account you entered owns Arma 3, upload the modlist.html list exported from the launcher: the server then downloads the Workshop mods on startup, copies their keys and keeps them updated. Mods are not covered by our support.Read the setup guide →
Upload the mission's .pbo file to the MPMissions folder, over SFTP or with the file manager. In server.cfg, write its name, without the .pbo extension, on the template line of the Missions class, then restart the server.Read the setup guide →
The admin password is generated on delivery, in the Admin Password (ADMIN_PASSWORD) variable in OuiPanel, where you can change it. In game, open the chat and type #login followed by that password. You then get the game's admin commands, such as #missions or #kick.
Yes. The server.cfg file opens in the OuiPanel file manager or over SFTP, with the server name, the welcome message, the difficulty and the missions. The join password and the number of players are rewritten there on every startup from the Server Password and Max Players variables, so change them in OuiPanel. Left empty, the password keeps the server open to everyone.
Yes. BattlEye, the game's anti-cheat, is enabled by default, with the BattlEye = 1 line in server.cfg.
Yes. With the Automatic Updates variable on, as it is by default, the server checks for the latest version of the game on every startup and downloads it when needed. Schedule a restart every night to stay up to date.
Yes, as an advanced option. The [Advanced] Headless Clients variable starts up to five headless clients next to the server, to take load off the AI. Plan on about 2 GB of memory each, taken from your plan. Creator DLC installs with the creatordlc branch of the Arma 3 Branch variable, then loads through its folder in Additional Mods. Check that your players own the DLC.
Your server is ready a few minutes after payment and after you enter your Steam account. The reinstall downloads the game, about 5 GB, then the server starts. Your Workshop mods download on the first startup after that.
In Marseille (France), Frankfurt (Germany), New York (United States), Beauharnois (Canada) and Sydney (Australia). Start, Plus and Pro are available everywhere, Ultra everywhere except Australia, at the same price. Rent your server in the location closest to your players.
Yes. Moving up a plan resizes your server with no reinstall and no data loss, in the same country.
