How to set up a sons of the forest dedicated server - Tutorial.
9Full tutorial on setting up a sons of the forest dedicated server and port forwarding on windows. step-by-step.
There is a written guide and also a steam download for setting up a server but I know some prefer to watch rather than read when it comes to game servers, setting them up and understanding how they work.
You can set this up on your pc at home for your personal/solo use and you can also, with the correct router ports opened, set this up and be made public for your friends to join and play as well.
🌟 Enable Server Console Commands🌟
To access the commands, ensure your an admin as in the video and once in the server press enter for the chat, then type *cheatstick* and press enter again, using the F1 key should now show you the entire console commands to use
