LinuxGSM

Release v26.3.0

Sat, 10 Oct 2026 21:48:54 +0000

LinuxGSM v26.3.0 is here with two new game servers, the return of Counter-Strike: Global Offensive as a game in its own right, mod support for Counter-Strike 2, a more dependable monitor, and a long list of game fixes.

Action Required: Counter-Strike: Global Offensive Servers

CS:GO is now a standalone game on Steam (App ID 4465480), separate from Counter-Strike 2 (App ID 730). csgoserver has a new clientappid setting for the App ID players connect with. It defaults to 4465480, so after updating, existing CS:GO servers switch from 730 to 4465480 on their next start.

Release v26.2.0

Wed, 22 Jul 2026 18:48:43 +0000

LinuxGSM v26.2.0 is here with two new game servers, a new alert provider, a handy new safety feature for busy servers, and a batch of fixes and distro updates.

New Game Servers

Two new servers have been added in this release: Military Conflict: Vietnam and Jabroni Brawl: Episode 3. Both are Source engine games, so they will feel right at home if you already run other Source servers with LinuxGSM.

Matrix Alerts

Matrix has been added as a new alert provider, joining the likes of Discord, Slack, Telegram and the others. If you run a Matrix homeserver (or use matrix.org) you can now have LinuxGSM send server alerts straight into a room. See the Matrix alerts documentation to get set up.

Release v24.3.0

Mon, 23 Sep 2024 22:28:03 +0000

In this release, Soulmask and Xonotic have been added and the usual fixes and improvements. UT3 updates its archive to add the OpenSpy fix so your server will show on the OpenSpy master server. UT2k4, Killing Floor and Red Orchestra have had query refactors based on research I have been doing into game queries. SAMP server has had its download URL updated to the new website Also Ubuntu 24.04 has been added.

Release v24.2.0

Thu, 04 Apr 2024 12:29:33 +0000

In the latest release, several enhancements and fixes have been introduced. Notable features include parallel backup creation using pigz for faster backups. Significant work on compatibility with gamedig 5, including auto install of gamedig if nodejs is installed as well as LinuxGSM will peg to a specific version of gamedig to prevent breaking changes. Additionally, alerts now support Telegram group topics and silent notifications. The release also introduces the Humanitz server, updates paths for Warfork, and ensures dependency consistency. Palworld developers changed the binary name so that has also been updated.

Release v24.1.0

Sun, 21 Jan 2024 21:14:11 +0000

This release has 1 main feature Palworld. This game has been massively requested since it was released the other day. That’s to PlayMTL for putting this together so quickly. For the full changelog see here.

Release v23.7.0

Sun, 03 Dec 2023 20:51:35 +0000

This release sees Quake 4 added, a bunch of fixes, refactoring and a UE4 server tidy-up, including finding a few servers that have been upgraded to UE5. While this is not the most exciting release the quality-of-life improvements will help existing servers. Full changelog can be found here.

Currently, I am slowly going through each of the game servers I am hosting, opening the ports and ensuring I can connect to them. It is proving to be a great exercise in highlighting any issues with existing game servers and you will see fixes being added as I find them. A prime example is issue #4389 which highlighted that the steamclient.so was so old that unless you manually updated it a Killing Floor server would not show in the steam server browser. This is the sort of issue I would not have noticed unless I re-tested KF.

Release v23.6.0

Mon, 30 Oct 2023 00:19:02 +0000

This release adds 2 new game servers Counter-Strike 2 and The Front as well as a rework of alerts.

Counter-Strike 2

The with release of Counter-Strike 2 Valve has made available a Linux dedicated server. However, there are a few caveats currently.

Firstly, Valve has not officially announced CS2 community game servers and are still listed as “coming soon”, which is why CS2 server currently seems incomplete (but working). So, treat CS2 server as a “work in progress”.

Release v23.5.0

Sun, 10 Sep 2023 21:44:54 +0000

Hello Everyone. In this release, I focused on under-the-hood features and bug fixes.

This update will force a restart of your game server to deal with a change in how LinuxGSM uses tmux. The monitor command will pick up this and restart as required. If there are any issues with your game server a full reboot of your server will clear it.

Highlights include

Migrate stats to GA-4: Google sunset Universal analytics which I used to gather the stats that you can see on the stats page. GA-4 does improve how stats are gathered behind the scenes. As servers are upgraded stats will start to re-populate on the page. Please opt into stats as they are always interesting to see. A new stat that is gathered is if the serve is running on docker, KVM or bare metal.

Release v23.4.0

Fri, 21 Jul 2023 22:06:13 +0000

This release mainly focuses on fixing and refactoring a number of servers that have broken due to major changes in their configuration. For example Rising World migrated to the Unity engine or Arma Reforgers config changes. As well as updating The Isle to use evrima branch by default. I have also integrated what I hope to be a permanent fix for the goldsrc engine steamcmd downloads bug that has plagued us for years. A special thanks to a community member of The Isle for their guidance on the rework of the server.

LinuxGSM Introduces Docker Containers (Finally!)

Wed, 19 Jul 2023 12:53:00 +0000

🐧🐳I am happy to announce LinuxGSM Docker Containers is ready for you to try out as a BETA test.

All the docker containers available are built using the specific dependency requirements for each game server.

For more info about how to deploy a LinuxGSM Docker container Docker Hub.

There are still a few things to finish off and proper documentation needs to be written. However the base containers are now working. Enjoy!

Release v23.3.0

Sun, 28 May 2023 13:26:21 +0000

Version v23.3.0 has been released, introducing three new servers: Craftopia, HYPERCHARGE: Unboxed, and Operation: Harsh Doorstop.

Noteworthy updates in this release include the addition of support for Debian 12, optimizations in gamedig queries, significant refactoring of the details gathering process, and renaming the functions directory to modules. Additionally, various bug fixes have been implemented for pz and hw.

The improvements in this release primarily focus on enhancing the support for an expanding list of game servers, aiming to make the code more scalable. Scalability plays a vital role in ensuring the continued success of this project, as the project’s growth leads to longer development times for improvements. To address this, I am refactoring the code to streamline and expedite the development of LinuxGSM, and I am also increasing the utilization of CI/Pipelines to gather information and conduct thorough testing, thereby improving the quality of LinuxGSM. Furthermore, the ongoing improvements involve exploring methods to gather and store additional information about game servers, such as ports and resource requirements.

Release v22.1.0

Thu, 02 Jun 2022 22:32:15 +0000

This new release sees Arma Reforger and Project Cars 2 added as supported servers. As usual a whole bunch of fixes and improvements mainly from the awesome LinuxGSM community. Please see the list below to see all the changes.

As you can all tell this is another release that has taken time to come out. This is still due to ongoing personal commitments. I think its worth repeating I would like to thank everyone who is helping the project while I continue to get sorted out.

Release v21.5.0

Sat, 08 Jan 2022 17:52:13 +0000

The final release of 2021 sees new servers DayZ, The Isle, and Crafting Dead added as well as a whole load of fixes and improvements. For this release, most of the thanks have to go to community members who undertook most of the work for this one.

Over the past few months, I have been undertaking many changes including learning both Terraform and Ansible for my new job (with Docker and possibly Kubernetes in the pipeline) as well as going through the process of buying a house (I am now watching way too many homelab videos currently). As you can all imagine this has eaten up a lot of my time. However, learning new technologies and finally being able to settle down properly will allow me to grow and continue to improve LinuxGSM. For me, LinuxGSM continues to be a brilliant project with a great community. I look forward to the continued growth of LinuxGSM. Thank you all for your continued support!

Release v21.4.0

Wed, 27 Oct 2021 00:22:02 +0000

This release adds Satisfactory support to LinuxGSM.

feat(newserver): satisfactory by @Claiyc in #3638

OVHCloud US Partner with LinuxGSM

Sat, 08 May 2021 12:56:38 +0000

I am very excited to announce that OVHCloud US has partnered with LinuxGSM. They are supplying me with 2 of their beefy INFRA-2 servers.

Over the past month, I have setup Proxmox on both and paired them using the OVH vRack. It has been a great learning experience to start using an Open Source Hypervisor. I have migrated over my webserver and I am very pleased with the speed increase of now having nVMe drives and a sizable CPU increase from my existing Dedicated server.

v21.2.3

Tue, 06 Apr 2021 13:34:16 +0000

In this hotfix, there are several fixes for Rust primarily around the wipe command and random seed. This was meant to be a small change that turned into a significant refactor of the wipe command.

The wipe commands are now the following.

./rustserver map-wipe
./rustserver full-wipe

The old names do still apply so no changes to your cronjobs are required.

I have also fixed a few image-related issues with Rust and discord.

v21.2.0

Sun, 14 Mar 2021 09:43:24 +0000

This release sees the new addition of PaperMC and Waterfall popular forks of Minecraft server. I completed some research on Minecraft to get my head around the difference between mods and plugins as part of this. Patch updates for ET:Legacy and Unreal 99 also added. For supported games, the send command has been added that allows you to send commands to the console without needing to enter the console. A couple of fixes for Valheim based on feedback and 60% of game servers on LInuxGSM are Valheim. A security fix now applied to prevent server join passwords showing on post-details.

v21.1.2

Fri, 05 Feb 2021 22:56:05 +0000

I have completed a special release of LinuxGSM to add Valheim to the list of supported servers. This is because Valheim has just been released as early access and have been getting requests for it. Since a LinuxGSM release is around once a month I thought it was a good idea to do this.

v21.1.2 (2021-02-05)

v21.1.0

Wed, 27 Jan 2021 20:55:48 +0000

Hello everyone, LinuxGSM continues to grow and improve all the time.

Over the past few months, I have seen steady growth in engagement from people both trying out LinuxGSM for the first time and existing users helping out on discord.

Looking at the stats it appears that there has been a sharp uptake of Rust servers meaning it is now the #1 most popular game server on LinuxGSM, overtaking ARK and CS:GO. All stats can be viewed on the website.

v20.5.0

Sun, 20 Sep 2020 20:54:06 +0000

Hello, this release has been a big one with many bugs fixed and a long term feature request added, with this release focusing on improving the quality of existing servers rather than adding several new ones. Firstly the newest server added for this release is Jedi Knight II. Improvements include adding Rust wipe custom map support, Rocket.chat support, new info about console interactions.

The biggest new feature is removing the requirement for servers with multiple IP addresses to manually enter an IP address the game server will bind too into config or parameter. This change will further improve automation, simplify installation and configuration.

Rust has seen its wipe command updated so no input is required anymore making it easier to use with a cron. The Rust console also will now have an output and Rust + support added. The way LinuxGSM uses SteamCMD has improved and will now catch errors and advise on the error, plus the beta password option has been added for custom branches. A whole bunch of other improvements and fixes can be seen below.

v20.3.0

Wed, 20 May 2020 19:42:20 +0000

This release sees Chivalry: Medieval Warfare added to the lineup of servers (currently on sale at humble bundle). As well as a new server, major changes have been made to how LinuxGSM updates itself that should make the updating more robust and stable (see below for details). Unreal Tournament 3 has been given a review to add port query and other improvements.

All non-steam servers will now download .tar.xz files on install which not only has significantly better compression, speeding up downloads but is also faster at de-compressing (see results of my benchmark below).

This new release added two new servers Assetto Corsa and Avorion and a bunch of new features, fixes and improvements.

For people who have multi-instance servers, all server instances will now reboot after an update. This works by monitor noticing that the server instance has not been rebooted since the previous update and automatically rebooting the instance.

For Soldat players, you may have noticed that it is now hosted on Steam, including the game server. With the assistance of one of the Soldat developers, I migrated the server to SteamCMD and added query functionality.

LinuxGSM Featured on GamingOnLinux

Tue, 07 Jan 2020 10:15:05 +0000

Last month I reached out to Liam the author of one of my favourite Linux Gaming news and review sites. I asked him if he would be willing to do a post about the milestone of LinuxGSM reaching 100 game servers supported.

It turns out GamingOnLinux uses LinuxGSM to host there 7 Days to Die server which they use for the GamingOnLinux Twitch streams. The next day an article went up highlighting the project.

v19.12.0

Sat, 30 Nov 2019 13:33:25 +0000

This release has been quite a tough one with quite a bit of backend refactoring. Notable changes include moving Teamspeak 3 to use tmux, which was the only server not to use it. Refactor of the monitor command, now monitor settings can be set from _default.cfg making it much easier to add a new game server. Lots of standardising code based on shellcheck standards have also been happening to improve the code quality.

LinuxGSM reaches 100+ Game Servers

Sat, 19 Oct 2019 06:23:54 +0000

LinuxGSM has been going since 2012 and now the latest release of LinuxGSM has hit the milestone of over 100 game servers supported.

An achievement that I am extremely proud of. It has been the amazing support and contributions from the gaming community that has helped me to continue with this project that I get so much out of.

There is still a massive backlog of servers to be added and new features to work on so plenty to be getting on with.

Linode Integrates LinuxGSM into One-Click App

Sun, 23 Jun 2019 23:35:02 +0000

I am very excited to inform you that Linode is now using LinuxGSM for their “One-Click App” option for Game Servers. By selecting any of the game servers Linode has available, you are deploying a Linode Linux server using LinuxGSM. It is a brilliant endorsement for this project and shows how far LinuxGSM has come from a simple Killing Floor script on my blog to one of the most popular tools for deploying game servers.

LinuxGSM has a Vagrant File

Fri, 20 Apr 2018 17:10:06 +0000

I have been playing with Vagrant recently and have created a basic Vagrant file that will setup a VM ready to deploy any LinuxGSM game server. For those that know about Vagrant know its great at quickly creating virtual environments in a specific way. Eliminating the requirement to manually install a VM.

Vagrant is a tool for building and managing virtual machine environments

Vagrant will download Ubuntu 16.04, install dependencies and download linuxgsm.sh ready to install a game server of your choice.

node-gamedig Integration

We will be looking at further uses for node-gamedig in the future.
