Support topics

Choose the area closest to your problem. These guides cover the most common setup and troubleshooting paths.

🚀

Getting started

Download the current Windows package, extract it, install with administrator permissions, and sign in using the purchase email and license verification flow.

🔐

Account & licensing

Use the Customer Account page for your subscription, license information, installer access, registered computers, and account session.

⬆️

Installation & updates

For failed installs or updates, close running Obli applications, run the installer/updater as administrator, and verify Windows security did not block the package.

🎮

Game profiles

Confirm the correct game profile, SteamCMD/App ID, executable, ports, map, configuration paths, and launch arguments before starting a server.

🌐

Networking & ports

Check Windows Firewall, router/NAT rules, the selected server IP, game/query/RCON ports, and whether another server is already using the same port.

🧩

Mods

Verify the game supports the selected mod source, IDs are valid, the server has internet access, and the mod is compatible with the current server build.

💾

Backups & recovery

Use configuration snapshots and backups before major changes. If a configuration breaks, compare changes or restore a known-good snapshot.

🩺

Diagnostics

Review CPU, memory, storage, temperatures, server process state, update status, and diagnostic output before reporting performance or startup problems.

🖥️

Obli Remote

For remote-access issues, confirm both devices are licensed, Obli Remote is running, the network is available, and direct or relay connectivity can be established.

Device allowances

Each licensed customer has separate device pools for Server Manager and Obli Remote.

Server Manager
2 computers

Register Obli Server Manager on up to two computers for the license.

Obli Remote
4 computers

Register Obli Remote on up to four computers for the same license. These slots are separate from Server Manager slots.

Replacing a computer
♻️

If you replace or reinstall a computer and run out of available slots, contact support with your purchase email and the device name that should be removed.

Frequently asked questions

Server Manager will not start. What should I check?

Restart Windows, confirm the application is installed correctly, run it with the required permissions, and check whether Windows Security or another security product quarantined a component. Include the exact error message when contacting support.

My game server starts but does not appear in the server browser.

Confirm the game/query ports, firewall rules, public/private IP selection, router port forwarding when required, and game-specific visibility settings. Some server browsers also take time to refresh.

Why can I not register another Server Manager computer?

The Server Manager allowance is two computers per license. Remove an old registration before adding another computer, or contact support if an inaccessible machine still occupies a slot.

Does Obli Remote use my Server Manager device slots?

No. Obli Remote has its own four-computer allowance, separate from the two Server Manager computers.

What should I do before changing a server configuration?

Create a backup or configuration snapshot first. That gives you a known-good state to compare against or restore if the server stops launching.

My mods stopped working after an update. What should I do?

Check whether the game server and mods are on compatible versions, refresh the installed mod information, and review the server log for the first mod-related error.

Obli Remote cannot connect to another computer.

Confirm Obli Remote is active on both computers, both registrations are valid, the machines have network access, and local firewall/security software is not blocking the connection.

How do I report a bug?

Email support with reproduction steps, product version, Windows version, screenshots when useful, and the relevant logs. Do not send passwords, private keys, payment-card information, or other secrets.
