# How To Change the Map on Your Arma 3 Server (/docs/arma-3/change-map)



import { Step, Steps } from 'fumadocs-ui/components/steps';

Arma 3 includes several official maps and supports many community-made terrains through mods. Here is how to change which map your server runs.

<div className="fd-steps">
  <div className="fd-step">
    Open the Startup Page [#1-open-the-startup-page]

    Log in to the [XGamingServer Panel](https://panel.xgamingserver.com) and select your Arma 3 server. In the sidebar, click **Startup**.
  </div>

  <div className="fd-step">
    Change the Map [#2-change-the-map]

    Find the **Map** or **Mission** field. The map is determined by the mission file you select. Common official map class names include:

    | Map Name              | Class Name |
    | --------------------- | ---------- |
    | Altis                 | `Altis`    |
    | Stratis               | `Stratis`  |
    | Malden                | `Malden`   |
    | Tanoa (Apex DLC)      | `Tanoa`    |
    | Livonia (Contact DLC) | `Enoch`    |
  </div>

  <div className="fd-step">
    Restart Your Server [#3-restart-your-server]

    Go to **Console** in the sidebar and restart your server.
  </div>
</div>

Using Custom Maps [#using-custom-maps]

If you want to use a community-made map from the Steam Workshop:

<div className="fd-steps">
  <div className="fd-step">
    Install the Map Mod [#1-install-the-map-mod]

    Follow the [Install Mods](/docs/arma-3/install-mods) guide to add the Workshop map mod to your server.
  </div>

  <div className="fd-step">
    Update the Map Setting [#2-update-the-map-setting]

    In **Startup**, change the map class name to match the custom terrain (check the mod's Workshop page for the correct class name).
  </div>

  <div className="fd-step">
    Restart Your Server [#3-restart-your-server-1]

    Restart the server to load the new map.

    > 📝 **Note:** Players must also have the map mod installed to connect. The Arma 3 Launcher will typically prompt them to download the required mods.
