Set your server's Project Name

sets sv_projectName "My FXServer Project"

Set your server's Project Description

sets sv_projectDesc "Default FXServer requiring configuration"

If **either** variable is missing, the server will display an error upon startup and may not appear on the list.

### Additional Troubleshooting

- It can take **up to 8 minutes** for a server to appear in the list after launch if no other heartbeats are sent.
- There may be an issue with the server listing service itself. Be patient - chances are our team is already working on it.
- If you're behind a **NAT or gateway** that **masks UDP source ports**, your server may not show up. Consult your firewall/router documentation or check [pfSense's guide][pfsensenat] for resolving this.

### My Server Can Only Use 48 Slots

Using more than 48 slots requires a [Cfx.re Element Club Argentum 💿](https://portal.cfx.re/subscriptions) subscription or higher.

To raise the maximum player cap:

1. Use the latest [server artifact][setting-up-server].
2. Set `sv_maxclients` to a value higher than 48 (based on your [subscription tier](https://portal.cfx.re/subscriptions)).
3. Restart your server.

### Troubleshooting Slow Server Startups

**Microsoft Defender Antivirus** may slow down server startup by scanning FXServer files on Windows servers.

To resolve:

1. Press **Start** or hit the **Windows key**.
2. Type `PowerShell` into the search bar.
3. Right-click on **Windows PowerShell** in the search results.
4. Click **Run as administrator**.
5. If prompted by **User Account Control (UAC)**, click **Yes** to confirm.
6. Run this command (replace `C:\FXServer\` with your actual path):

```powershell
Add-MpPreference -ExclusionPath 'C:\FXServer\'

For more details on the Add-MpPreference command, refer to the official documentation.

Note that adding resources to your server increases the startup time. If you experience unusually long startup times, check the server console for errors or warning messages.
