Step-by-Step Installation

1

Download Required Files

Download the Viking Earth setup package and extract all files.

Simple Setup: Just drag and drop the setup files into your server container.

2

Install the Earth World

This setup uses the Official Earth Map, which has a large file size of approximately 10 GB. For that reason, you'll need to download the world yourself and upload it to your server.

Large Download: The Earth World map is approximately 10 GB. Make sure you have a stable internet connection and enough server disk space before proceeding.

Download the Earth World

Download the map from the official Earth World website: Click here

Recommendation: We recommend choosing: 1:1500 | 1.17.1 | OSM-Vegetation: Yes

Upload to Your Server

Once downloaded, upload the Earth world to your server's world folder.
After uploading, rename the folder to world — this is required for the setup to function properly.
