In this guide you will learn how to edit the Military Conflict: Vietnam config files such as server.cfg, and exactly what each one is for. You can edit these files by going to Files in the sidebar.
server.cfg
Default location: /vietnam/cfg/server.cfg
This is the main config file for your server, and it is where convars such as sv_cheats and sv_gravity belong.
The top of the file holds your hostname, rcon_password and sv_password. Those three are controlled from your Settings page, so edit them there rather than in this file. Everything you add yourself goes below the /// Custom Commands line, which is the part of the file that is left alone when your server restarts.
If you're looking for an in-depth list of Military Conflict: Vietnam server commands, see our searchable console commands list.
Plugin Config Files
Default location: /vietnam/cfg/sourcemod/
If you are running SourceMod, each plugin you install should generate its own config file. Most write to /vietnam/cfg/sourcemod/, though some plugins and extensions use /vietnam/addons/sourcemod/configs/ instead. If you are in doubt, refer to the plugin author's documentation. See our install plugins guide for more information.
Finding Convars & Commands
If you ever need to find a convar or command, go to your server's console and type find followed by what you're looking for. For example, typing find chat will output every convar and command matching that, along with a description of what they each do.
