How to Configure Windrose+ Multipliers

Windrose+ can change XP, loot, and related rates on the dedicated server. Players do not install a client mod for these multipliers. Vanilla Windrose ignores windrose_plus.json.

1.0 is the default (no change). Values above 1.0 increase the rate. Values below 1.0 decrease it.

Multiplier Keys

Edit the multipliers object in windrose_plus.json. Names and which keys actually apply depend on the Windrose+ build. After boot, run wp.status or wp.multipliers in the web console. Keys marked (disabled) are stored but not applied (some stack, weight, and crop keys have been no-ops in recent PAK builds because they corrupted character saves).

Typical keys:

Key	Effect
xp	Experience gained
loot	Loot drop rates
craft_efficiency	Crafting efficiency / cost scaling
cooking_speed	Cooking speed
harvest_yield	Harvest yield

Older configs may still list stack_size, crop_speed, weight, inventory_size, or points_per_level. If wp.status shows them as disabled, they will not change gameplay.

Edit the File

1. Stop the server in the AleForge Panel
2. Open Files and find windrose_plus.json in R5/ or R5/Binaries/Win64/
3. Update the multipliers block
4. Click Save Content
5. Start the server (do not only resume a frozen process). The launcher rebuilds the override PAK on a proper start. If you only edit the JSON and the old PAK stays in place, wp.config can lie while the world still uses 1.0

Example:

{
  "multipliers": {
    "xp": 2.0,
    "loot": 1.5,
    "craft_efficiency": 1.25,
    "cooking_speed": 1.0,
    "harvest_yield": 1.0
  }
}

wp.reload re-reads JSON for the dashboard. Multipliers that are baked into the PAK still need a full restart.

If windrose_plus.json Is Missing

Windrose+ is not installed. Do not add the file by hand. Contact support and ask to enable Windrose+ on the server.

World difficulty (mob health, shared quests, and similar) stays in WorldDescription.json. See Windrose dedicated server settings.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where is the Windrose+ config file?

windrose_plus.json in R5/ or R5/Binaries/Win64/. Open it from Files.

What does a value of 1.0 mean?

No change from vanilla rates. 2.0 on xp doubles experience if that key is active.

Do I need Windrose+ for multipliers?

Yes. Vanilla dedicated servers do not read these rates.
