Valheim panel features that pull weight.
Every tool LoafHub adds for Valheim server hosting, included free, no add-ons, no upsells.
Build Switcher
NewMove a server between the plain vanilla build, the expanded-settings build and the modded build in one click. The panel carries your server name, password, active world and settings across the switch and snapshots your worlds before it starts. Mods installed on the modded build are reset by a switch, so note what you are running before you move.
Valheim Config Editor
NewThe expanded settings file as a grouped, searchable form with a tip under each field and one-click tuning presets, plus your admin, permitted and banned player lists on the same screen. That form only appears when the expanded build is installed; on a plain server you get the raw editor for any config file instead of a form full of settings that would do nothing.
World Manager
Every world on the server in one list, with the active one marked. Download, back up, restore, import or delete. A world is a save plus its metadata file, and the panel keeps the pair together, which is the difference between a restore that loads and one that does not.
Mod Manager
Paste a mod's link, or its namespace and name, and the panel downloads and installs it into the modded build's plugin folder. Enable, disable, update or remove from the same list.
Hardware that holds up. A panel that does the work.

Common Valheim hosting questions.
How much does Valheim server hosting cost?
A Valheim server at Loafhosts is built to order: you slide memory from 1 to 64 GB, CPU from 1 to 16 cores, and storage from 10 to 500 GB. The Standard build most people pick for Valheim is 4 GB memory with 30 GB NVMe at $17.00/month. Builds for Valheim run from $14.75 to $23.50/month, every one on an AMD Ryzen 9 7950X and 9950X with DDR5 RAM, up to 10 slots and the full LoafHub panel. Longer billing cycles save up to 25%.
How much memory should my Valheim server have?
Every Valheim server is built to order: you set memory from 1 to 64 GB, CPU from 1 to 16 cores, and storage from 10 to 500 GB with sliders, or start from a preset. The Standard build, 4 GB memory with 30 GB NVMe, is what most Valheim communities pick. Smaller crews and test servers run happily on less, and heavily modded setups or high player counts want more.
