How to Change Game Settings in V Rising

​

Ruleset Configuration: Game Settings

V Rising offers incredible flexibility for server owners, allowing you to tweak almost every aspect of the vampire experience. From making the sun less deadly to doubling resource yields, all gameplay variables are stored in a single JSON configuration file.

​

Accessing the Configuration

1. Navigate: Go to /save-data/Settings/ in your File Manager.
2. File: Open ServerGameSettings.json.
3. Requirement: If this file is missing, start the server once to allow the engine to generate the default template, then stop the server.

​

Essential Modifiers

​

1. Inventory & Stacking

• Variable: "InventoryStacksModifier": 1.0
• Effect: Increasing this to 2.0 doubles the stack size of all items (e.g., holding 1000 Stone instead of 500).

​

2. Loot & Yield

• Variable: "MaterialYieldModifier_Global": 1.0
• Effect: Controls how many resources you get from hitting trees/rocks. Set to 3.0 for a “3x Gather” server.
• Variable: "DropTableModifier_General": 1.0
• Effect: Controls loot dropped by mobs and bosses.

​

3. Day/Night Cycle

• Variable: "DayDurationInSeconds": 1080
• Effect: Determines the length of a full 24-hour cycle. Increase this number to make days (and therefore nights) last longer.
• Variable: "SunDamageModifier": 1.0
• Effect: Reduce to 0.5 to make the sun inflict 50% less damage per tick, giving vampires a better chance of survival during the day.
