Update and Backup

What to Back Up Before Updating

• config/ServerProperties.json
• custom scripts/systemd or service manager wrapper
• log history if needed

Safe Server Update

1. Stop the server (stop or via service manager).
2. Back up config/.
3. Extract new release into a separate directory.
4. Move your ServerProperties.json.
5. Start and validate startup logs.

Safe Client Update

Client settings (Settings.json) are stored in ApplicationData/voicecraft, so they usually survive binary updates.

Compatibility

• Client and server Major/Minor versions should match.
• Patch versions may differ.

If problems appear after an update, start with Troubleshooting.
