How to Update Your Soulmask Server
Keep your Soulmask dedicated server up to date with the latest game version.
Soulmask receives frequent updates. Players must be on the same version as the server to connect.
Create a backup
In the XGamingServer Panel, go to Backups and create a backup. Soulmask updates can occasionally change save formats.
Stop the server
Stop from Console. Never force-close — always use the Stop button to ensure the world saves properly.
Reinstall
On the Dashboard, click Reinstall Server. This pulls the latest server files while preserving your world data (world.db) and configuration.
Start the server
Start from Console. Check the startup log for the version number.

GameXishu.json— new updates may add settings. Review the server configuration guide for any new options - Test mods — Workshop mods may need updating after a game patch. Check the mod Workshop pages for compatibility notes
