Option

Explanation

Server mode

Disk Mode for workstations with their own drives; Diskless Mode for diskless workstations (network boot).

Max downloads

How many games download / update at the same time. Raise it on a fast connection, lower it on slow drives. Default 3.

Download / upload limit

The maximum speed CafeServer uses for game traffic (all games combined). Default 40 MB/s. Lower it if online players lag while the server updates.

Package folders

Up to 3 folders. The first folder is where new games download. Changing it also moves the path of games not downloaded yet.

Drive after download, per computer group

For each group: run games from the workstation's local drive or from a virtual drive (read directly from the server).

Client password

The password that unlocks a workstation (client software).

Console password

The web password for signing in to the Console. Required if you want to open the Console from other devices.

💡 Tip: Network slow at peak hours? Lower the Download limit to 10–20 MB/s, and raise it again late at night so games update quickly.
