Game Morph Guide

Overview

Game Morph is a NovaStack feature that lets you switch your server to a different game without losing your plan, billing setup, or server slot. Your old game's files are archived automatically.

How It Works

  1. Go to your server's Game Morph tab.
  2. Select the new game from the catalogue.
  3. Confirm the switch.

NovaStack will:

  • Create a full backup of your current game files.
  • Install the new game server files.
  • Keep your server on the same plan tier and IP address.

The process takes 1–3 minutes depending on the game.

Switching Back

Want to go back? Use Game Morph again and your previous game's backup will be restored. NovaStack keeps the last backup for each game you've morphed from.

Note: Archived game backups are kept within your server's backup slots — you can view or remove them anytime from the Backups tab.

Limitations

  • Some games require more resources than your current plan provides. You may need to upgrade before morphing.
  • Morphing resets your server's port if the new game uses a different default port.
