JC2-MP Server Hosting, Explained

What is Just Cause 2: Multiplayer Mod?

New to JC2-MP?

What is Just Cause 2: Multiplayer Mod?

JC2-MP is a free mod on Steam that brings multiplayer to Just Cause 2. It keeps the grappling hook, the parachute, the explosions and the vehicles, and puts them in one shared Panau with other players. Every server runs its own Lua scripts, so one plays as freeroam with stunts and vehicles, another as racing, deathmatch, roleplay or co-op. Players need Just Cause 2 on PC to join.

Grapple and Parachute.

Travel and stunt across Panau with Just Cause 2's grappling hook and parachute.

Lua Gamemodes.

Server owners write Lua scripts, so every server can play differently.

Why rent a server?

What is JC2-MP Server Hosting?

JC2-MP has no official servers: every game runs on a dedicated server someone hosts. A Physgun server keeps your Panau online when you log off, with no PC left on at home. You set the server name, description, password and player limit in the panel, change time, weather, vehicles and sync rates in the config editor, and get full file access over SFTP and SSH for your Lua scripts.

Always Online.

Your server stays up when you log off, so your friends can play any time.

Full Control.

Set your name, password and rules, and run the gamemodes you want.
