If the server runs mods, the game offers to fetch them on the way in. > [!NOTE] > Conan Exiles servers can't be ordered on Wilderack yet. We open Conan Exiles once Funcom gives us its written OK. These steps work for any Conan Exiles server. ## Before you join - **Know your server's name.** The list shows the server name you set in **Settings**. - **Have the address and port** for Direct Connect. They're on the address card on **Overview**, like `ironhold.tosk.gg:27777`. - **Have the password** if the server has one. ## Join from the server list 1. Start Conan Exiles and choose **Play Online**. 2. Search for your server's name. The list can take a moment to fill. 3. If it doesn't show, check the filters, like PvP or PvE, region and play style. They match the **Region in the server list** and **Play style** you set in **Settings**. 4. Pick the server and join. ## Join with Direct Connect 1. Choose **Play Online**. 2. Choose **Direct Connect** at the bottom of the list. 3. Type the address and port from your address card. 4. Connect, and type the password if there is one. Use the port on your address card, not Conan's usual 7777. Your server has its own. ## Joining a modded server When you join a server with mods you don't have, the game lists them and offers to download and turn them all on. Accept, and the game restarts with the server's mods in the server's order. A big mod list makes that restart slow, so give it time. Mods that aren't on the Steam Workshop show in the list too, but you have to get those yourself. ## Can't connect? - **The server isn't listed.** Check it's running in **Console**, clear the list's filters and search again. A server that just started takes a minute to show. - **Rejected right away.** Your game and the server are likely on different builds. Update the game in Steam, then stop the server and start it again so it updates too. - **Kicked for mods.** Your mods don't match the server's, or they're in a different order. Let the game sync them when you join. - **Asked for a password you don't have.** Ask the server's owner. The password is in **Settings**. [Common errors](https://wilderack.com/wiki/conan-exiles/common-errors/) covers each of these in more depth. ## Questions and answers ### How do I join a Conan Exiles server by IP? Choose Play Online, then Direct Connect at the bottom of the server list. Type the server's address and port from your address card, and the password if there is one. ### Can Xbox or PlayStation players join a PC Conan Exiles server? No. A PC dedicated server takes PC players only. Console players play on console servers, which only Funcom and its partner run. ### Do I need to install the server's mods before joining? Not by hand. When you join a modded server, the game lists the mods you're missing and offers to download and turn them all on. The game then restarts with the server's mods in the server's order. ## Sources - [Conan Exiles Enhanced troubleshooting](https://exiles-enhanced.inflexion.io/servers/troubleshooting/), Inflexion Games - [Modding](https://conanexiles.fandom.com/wiki/Modding), Conan Exiles Wiki --- Canonical page: https://wilderack.com/wiki/conan-exiles/how-to-connect/ How we write and check our guides: https://wilderack.com/company/editorial-policy/ Corrections: support@wilderack.com
