Introduction
What is USO?
Right now there are over 50,000 downloads. More than 2000 servers hosted via USO per day. This application is made in Germany. We´d like to introduce you to our application to simplify the way to host (modded) Unturned Servers.



Features:
- Have your servers within the blink of an eye
- Install ROCKET(tpa, kits) within one click
- Easy port-forwarding
- Easy install setup (self-explaining)
- Easy settings for the servers
- Host as many Servers as you want at once
- Simple design
- Easy mod-download and installation within less than 5 minutes (Steamworkshop)
- USO is free!
- You have an account manager

Visit our Gallery[unturned-server-organiser.com] to see some pictures of it.

Download the Organiser for Windows here[unturned-server-organiser.com]! This is the official download!
How to create my Server?
After you have downloaded the Setup, the following steps will occur:

  • Choose the install location
  • Download Unturned files (up to 1Gb has to be downloaded, this will take time.)
  • Now you have the ability to create LAN servers.
  • TO ALLOW FRIENDS TO JOIN you must port forward, use the UPNP funcion in the server panel.
  • Now you have the ability to create PUBLIC servers.

* Auto-Port-Forwarding (UPNP) works like this:

Note: it is a preview feature which may cause bugs!

Port-Forwarding (manually)
If you router is too old, you may port-forward manually if your router doesn´t support upnp. You should find a solution by just searching "port forward <your router>" on the internet. Here you can find a video which explains port-forwarding manually!
USO Walkthrough

  • 1. START button. This starts your server up.
  • 2. Playerlist. This shows a list of online players
  • 3. Server Panel. This is where you add MODS and ROCKET PLUGINS.
  • 4. Server Settings This is where you choose your server's basic settings.
  • 5. Console Hider This can hide your black console box, if you wish.

  • 2. Mods. This is where COMMUNITY mods (Lunar's guns, Rain's WWII) can be selected.
  • 3. UPNP. This is where you can AUTO-PORTFORWARD.
  • 4. IP adress. This is the number you can give to so they can join through the CONNECT tab.


  • 1. Instancename. This box DOES NOT MATTER.
  • 2. Servername. This is what your server's name will be in the server list.
  • 3. Cycle. This is the timer on how long days/nights last.
  • 4. Loadout. This is where you can select what players spawn with. NOT A KIT.
  • 5. Owner. Putting your steam64ID in here will make you a permenant admin.

FAQ (Troubleshooting)

You have problems with your USO? Check the following frequently asked questions section!

  • Please register in our brand new forum https://www.unturnedcommunity.com/ and post your bugs. We will help you to fix them!
  • Restarting USO fixes the most problems!
  • Is the Organiser Running in the background? Check your Task Bar!
  • If your server is not joinable for other players, you are hosting a Lan-server and have to port-forward your selected ports of your server.
  • Which ports do I have to port-forward? You can look this up in your settings of the server. By default it is 27015, 27016 and 27017. Always the selected ports and 2 ports above.
  • Is there the possibility to auto-port-forward? Not yet! We are currently working on it and a preview feature will be released within the next week!
  • This Video helps you to port-forward your server manually.
  • How can I join my server? You can join in your 'local' tab on the server list.
  • If you get the failuremessage: "USO is already launched", your USO is running in the background. Kill the task to start it again or check your taskbar!
  • If you see your server only in the LAN-section, everything is fine. You are only able to connect with your internal ip, so it's showing up in the LAN-section everyone else will see your server in the "Internet"-section that's because they will connect with your external ip. Just ask your friends if they can find your server!
System Requirements
The Unturned Server Organiser (USO) creates and controls Unturned Servers. These are two different applications (.exe) with different system requirements. In this chapter we will tell you the system requirements for both applications.

Unturned Server Organiser
  • Windows 7 or higher
  • Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5.2 (x86 and x64)
  • No graphics card requirements
  • just 1Gb of traffic per update (of unturned and the USO)

Unturned Server Application

Info: The following requirements are for one Unturned Server with 24 Players!
  • Windows 7 or higher
  • at least 4GB DDR3 ram (recommended 8Gb DDR3)
  • at least a 2x 2,6 Ghz processor (depends on the Unturned version)
  • Still no graphics card needed
  • just 2Gb of traffic per 24 hours
Note: If your Computer doesn´t fit in the requirements, you can decrease the amount of players.
USO for MAC systems
Unturned Server Organiser is currently not available for MAC systems.

Since there were more and more requests, I decided to start a kickstarter campaign!
