Edit every plugin config in a clean form, never raw JSON.
Config Studio turns your ASA plugin configs into a simple form with help under every setting, timestamped backups, and one click restore when things go wrong.
I built Config Studio for server owners who are tired of breaking a config over one missing comma. It reads the same two files every plugin already ships and turns them into a clean form, with the help text right under each setting. Every save writes a backup first, so you can see what changed and roll back with one click. It is one small Windows exe with nothing else to install.
ArkApi/Plugins folder and I list every plugin config under it.config-commented.jsonc, so the explanation sits right under the box you are typing in.NordBotsConfigStudio.exe. The app needs them to start.NordBotsConfigStudio.exe and enter your license key when it asks.ArkApi/Plugins folder.Stuck on the license, or found a setting that shows up wrong? Join the Discord and I will sort it out with you: https://discord.gg/8GGaEzWk9p
What does Config Studio do?
Config Studio is a dark theme Windows app that edits the config files of your ARK Survival Ascended server plugins through a clean form. It reads the config.json and the config-commented.jsonc a plugin ships, shows every setting with its help text, and writes your changes back safely with a backup first. You never have to open raw JSON again.
How do I install Config Studio?
Unzip the download into its own folder, keep the dll files next to the exe, and run NordBotsConfigStudio.exe. Enter your license key, then point Config Studio at your server's ArkApi/Plugins folder and it finds every plugin config on its own. There is nothing else to install, not even .NET.
What happens if a save goes wrong?
Config Studio writes a timestamped backup of the old file before every save, so a working config is never lost. Open the backups list, pick one, and it shows you exactly which lines differ from the file right now. One click restores it.
Does Config Studio work offline?
Mostly, yes. Config Studio needs the internet now and then for the license check and to fetch the newest settings lists, but the license keeps working offline for 72 hours, and the settings lists fall back to a cached copy, then to your local files. Editing and backups always work from your own disk.
Was any AI content used in the making of this?
The source code itself was fully created by myself. I do use ChatGPT occasionally to generate product images, and I do use ChatGPT to generate the website descriptions. I do this because I don't speak native English perfectly. I am natively from Sweden, so I use GPT to help translate and write product descriptions. I also will sometimes use GPT to write better English logs. Majority of my Free plugins are open source, so you can review the code yourself and freely fork and edit it to your liking.

The gallery on this page has 5 screenshots of Config Studio.
They show: nordbots ark asa ase server plugin collection, nordbots ark asa ase server customization plugins, nordbots ark asa ase server plugins website and nordbots ark server plugins wiki setup guides.
Config Studio does not have a separate wiki. The full write up is in the Description tab on this page.
Here is what this listing gives you, as of October 22, 2026:
Config Studio costs $24.97 one time. Prices are in US dollars and set by the creator, not by GameServersHub.
Config Studio is a one time purchase of $24.97. You pay once and keep access, with no renewal.
Access on GameServersHub is to the listing, not to one file, so new releases of Config Studio are included for as long as the listing exists.
Older releases stay available in the Versions tab when the creator keeps them.
The creator accepts debit or credit card through Stripe. Payment goes to the creator through GameServersHub's checkout, and your access starts as soon as the payment completes.
Digital goods are delivered instantly, so sales of Config Studio are final by default. Refunds are decided case by case, for example when a resource is broken, materially misdescribed or was never downloaded. To ask for one, contact GameServersHub staff in the GameServersHub Discord.
A refund ends your access. The full policy, including any consumer rights your local law gives you, is in the refund terms.
GameServersHub does not run trials, so there is no free version of Config Studio to download first.
What you can check before paying: 5 screenshots, all on this page.
Yes. Downloads need a GameServersHub account so the file is delivered to you and your access is recorded. Accounts are free: sign in with Discord or Steam, there is no separate password.
The current release is 21.3 MB. That is small enough to upload to a rented server through its web file manager.
GameServersHub stores the Config Studio file itself, so you download it directly from this page rather than from a third party mirror.
Each download link is made for you when you press the button, works once, and expires within about a minute, so links cannot be shared or hotlinked.
Config Studio is published by Lucas F, whose profile shows their history on the site. Listings go live when the creator publishes them, and GameServersHub moderators remove any listing found to be harmful or misleading.
The latest release has a published SHA-256 checksum (631946da1e05...) that GameServersHub verified at upload. Compare it with your download to confirm the file is unchanged.
Nobody has reviewed it yet.
As with anything you install on a server, scan the file, read the code or config where you can, and test on a copy first.
Come back to this page while signed in: the buy button becomes a download button, and any license key the creator sends appears here too. Every purchase, with its plan and renewal date, is also listed under your purchases.
The usual steps are:
The creator's description has the exact folders and settings for Config Studio. Where they differ from this outline, follow the creator.
From this listing's data, you need:
The creator's description has exact version numbers and anything specific to your platform.
The latest version is 0.3.11, released on August 18, 2026. It is a patch release, which fixes bugs without changing features.
The Download button on this page always gives you the latest version.
Config Studio was first published on GameServersHub on August 18, 2026, 65 days ago.
The creator's notes for 0.3.11 (August 18, 2026): Version 0.3.11. Imported from the developer's release catalog.
Unless the creator sets different terms in the description, buying Config Studio gives you a personal, non-exclusive license to use it for running your own game servers or projects. It is not a transfer of ownership.
Read the full wording in the resource license terms.
The default license covers your own game servers or projects, so running Config Studio on several servers you operate is allowed unless the creator says otherwise in the description.
Servers you run for someone else, such as a client, are not your own; ask the creator first.
Config Studio has 0 downloads and 1 page view on GameServersHub. It is the only ARK: Survival Ascended tool here so far.
Config Studio has not been reviewed yet. Once you buy it you can be the first to rate it in the Reviews tab.
That depends on what your server needs, so here are the facts to weigh: it costs from $24.97, nobody has reviewed it yet, it has 0 downloads and its latest release is 0.3.11 from August 18, 2026.
No other GameServersHub resources are listed as required for Config Studio. Check the description for software it expects on the machine itself.
The creator has not published a config preview for Config Studio. The description explains which settings you can change.
GameServersHub does not test resources against each game patch, so go by the release history. The latest release, 0.3.11, came out on August 18, 2026 (65 days ago).
If a recent game update changed something it relies on, the newest reviews on this page and the creator's changelog in the Versions tab are the quickest way to find out.
Yes, it looks active: version 0.3.11 came out 65 days ago.
Download the latest release from this page (your access covers new versions), back up your current config, then replace the old files with the new ones and restart.
Read the changelog in the Versions tab first: major releases can change config options, so compare your old settings with the new defaults.
Yes. The Versions tab lists all 8 releases with their changelogs, and signed in members with access can download any release the creator has not withdrawn. Useful when a game update or another plugin is not ready for the newest one.
Install it on the servers you run together, but do not pass the files to people who have not bought it. Each person who wants their own copy should get it from this page.
Changing its settings for your own servers is what the config is for. Deeper edits for your own use are not forbidden by the default license, but sharing an edited copy still counts as redistribution, which is not allowed without the creator's permission.
Keep a note of your changes: updates to Config Studio can overwrite edited files.
No, unless the creator explicitly allows it. The default license forbids redistributing, reselling, leaking or publicly mirroring Config Studio or any part of it, and passing it off as your own work.
Breaking the license can end your access and your account. Spotted a leaked copy? Tell the creator or GameServersHub staff.
The default license does not require an on-screen credit, but you may not present the work as your own. If Lucas F asks for credit in the description, follow that.
A short credit in your server info or Discord is a good way to support creators either way.
Start with the description. Still stuck? Describe the problem in a review so Lucas F sees it, with your version, your server setup and the exact error message.
You can also ask in the GameServersHub Discord, where creators and server owners help each other.
For a bug or setup issue, tell the creator in a review. If the listing itself looks wrong (stolen work, a harmful file or a misleading description), contact GameServersHub staff in the GameServersHub Discord or through the contact details in the terms of service. Moderators can hide or remove listings.
Yes, once you have bought it. Signed in buyers can rate Config Studio from one to five stars and write about their experience in the Reviews tab.
Specific reviews (your game version, setup and what worked) help other server owners most.
Yes. Any member can upload a resource, free or paid. Creators keep their sales minus a small platform fee and are paid through Stripe or PayPal. See becoming a creator for plans and fees.
Compare it with similar resources and read the full description against your own setup. Check the refund terms before buying.
