Getting Started With Hytale

Welcome to the next generation of sandbox gaming! ValueGameNode provides high-performance, low-latency hosting specifically optimized for Hytale’s unique engine. Our CUSTOM Pterodactyl-powered panel makes managing your world, scripts, and players effortless.

🚀 Getting Started: Your First Launch

Because Hytale requires a valid game license to run a server, the initial setup involves a two-step authentication process via the official Hytale services.

Step 1: Claiming Your Server Files

When you start your server for the first time, it needs to download the official engine files directly from Hytale.

1. Log in to the ValueGameNode Panel.

2. Select your Hytale server and click Start.

3. Monitor the Console. You will see a message providing a unique link or code.

4. Open the link in your browser and log in with your official Hytale account (the account must own the game).

5. Once confirmed, the server will automatically download the necessary files and folders.

Step 2: Device Authentication

Once the files are ready, you must authorize the server "device" to allow it to communicate with the Hytale master list.

1. In the server Console, type the following command: auth login device

2. The console will generate a new authentication link.

3. Click the link and confirm the connection in your browser.

4. Once the console displays "Authentication Successful", your server is online and ready for players!
