About yNkes's BetterLoot 2X - Balanced Loot Table for BetterLoot V4 Build a true 2X Rust economy without losing the progression, rarity and reward structure that makes vanilla Rust satisfying. yNkes's BetterLoot 2X is a carefully balanced loot table built specifically for 2X gather servers, with individual attention given to item rarity, usefulness, progression speed and overall server economy. Instead of simply doubling every vanilla drop, the configuration uses controlled stack sizes, tier-appropriate loot pools and category-based balancing. Commonly used resources, components, ammunition, medical supplies and progression items are improved where a 2X server benefits from reduced grind, while valuable weapons, explosives and rare items remain carefully controlled. The result is a faster and more rewarding Rust experience that still preserves meaningful progression and the value of high-tier loot. Designed for a Better 2X Experience BetterLoot V4 compatible Built specifically around 2X server progression Carefully tuned stack amounts and loot variety Faster progression without losing the vanilla Rust feel Rare and high-tier items remain meaningful Reduced unnecessary and low-value loot clutter Balanced components, resources, ammo, meds and raid-related items Tier-appropriate loot pools for early, mid and endgame progression Designed to avoid excessive component and explosive flooding Covers crates, barrels, NPC loot and other supported Rust loot containers Ready to use with the free BetterLoot plugin No paid plugin or additional dependency required Skip the Hours of Loot Balancing Building a proper 2X loot economy is more complicated than simply multiplying every vanilla stack by two. Hundreds of item quantities, loot pools and progression-sensitive drops need to work together so the server feels noticeably faster than vanilla without turning into a 3X or 5X experience. This pack gives you a finished, structured and carefully tuned 2X foundation that reduces unnecessary grind while keeping monument progression, high-tier loot and raid progression meaningful. Install it, start your server and get a properly balanced 2X loot economy immediately, while still keeping the configuration easy to customize further for your own server.

yNkes's Ultimate 3X Full Server Setup Carbon-only, BetterLoot v4 I built this pack as a clean starting point for an English 3X server: the rates work together, the everyday player features are already configured, and the files are ready to copy into a fresh Carbon installation. Install the required plugins, copy the pack to your server root, add your own branding and credentials, grant the included permissions, then woila! Please note: This is a configuration pack, not a copy of a running server; RustDedicated, Carbon, SteamCMD, plugin source files, maps, and third-party licenses are not included. What's Already Set Up - 3X gathering: Carbon GatherManager applies 3X rates to nodes, ground pickups, quarries, and Excavator output. - Practical stack sizes: Carbon StackManager uses 3X ammunition, components, and electrical stacks, 5X medical stacks, and 10X resource stacks while keeping sensitive consumable containers protected. - Custom BetterLoot: BetterLoot v4 data covers supported barrels, roadside loot, monuments, underwater labs, supply drops, Bradley, Patrol Helicopter, and other containers with 3X scrap, duplicate protection, blueprint conversion, balanced probabilities, and a cleaned item blacklist. - 3X smelting: CarbonAuto handles both normal and blacklist-classified ovens at 3X speed, so the pack does not need QuickSmelt. - Instant crafting: Crafting Controller removes normal craft times without enabling random skins, full-inventory crafting, shutdown completion, or extra crafting notices. - Early blueprints: Blueprint Manager gives default players Tier 0 and Tier 1 blueprint access through the supplied permissions. - Team blueprint sharing: Blueprint Share passes researched and Tech Tree blueprints to current and newly joined native Rust teammates without requiring Friends or Clans. - Team AutoAuth: Automatic Authorization shares cupboards, turrets, key locks, code locks, doors, boxes, and other supported locked entities with native teammates. - Barrel pickup: Auto Pickup Barrel collects barrel loot automatically for permitted players within three meters. - Cleaner furnace use: Furnace Splitter handles standard and large furnaces with vanilla fuel use and does not include anyone's saved preferences. - Short building correction time: Hammer Time gives the building owner 60 seconds to rotate or demolish placed pieces without restart or relationship bypasses. - Useful starter kit: Kits provides a free English Starter Kit every 12 hours with two sleeping bags, a large box, sheet-metal door, hammer, building plan, code lock, cupboard, furnace, bandage, resources, food, and cloth. - Clean kit setup: There are no autokits, NPC examples, player claim records, purchase costs, hidden VIP tiers, or external skin-plugin requirements. - Branded loading screen: Loading Messages cycles editable English connection text every five seconds and introduces the server rates, team limit, and rules. - Raid and Combat block: No Escape applies a three-minute combat block and five-minute raid block to teleporting, trading, kits, recycling, crafting, building, repairing, upgrading, and other configured escape actions. - Homes and teleporting: NTeleportation includes two homes, team-only TPR, TPB, and automatically detected Outpost and Bandit destinations with 15-second countdowns, 10-minute cooldowns, five daily uses, building checks, unsafe-state interruption, and No Escape support. - Faster recyclers: Recycle Manager speeds up recyclers without increasing output or changing vanilla efficiency. - Real population monitor: Server Pop reports actual online, sleeping, joining, and queued players through a private game tip with a 60-second cooldown. - Short Nights: Time Of Day runs approximately 55 minutes of daylight and five minutes of night without freezing or skipping the night. - Trade System: uMod Trade provides 30-slot remote exchanges through /trade and /trade accept with a five-minute cooldown, a 25-second request window, building, movement, radiation, vehicle, and No Escape checks. - Ready server profile: The supplied server.cfg uses a four-player team limit, a recommended 3500 Procedural Map, a Thursday 18:00 UTC weekly wipe template, and clearly marked fields for your own name, description, website, Discord, and header image. - Neutral starting point: Teleport costs, Economics, Server Rewards, VIP profiles, webhooks, fake players, fake wipe dates, player impersonation, and custom-map or monument claims are deliberately left out. What You Get The archive contains 16 cleaned plugin configs, the Carbon GatherManager, StackManager, and CarbonAuto settings, BetterLoot v4 data, a clean Starter Kit, English language files, and the complete ynkes_3x server identity template. Also includes: - A step-by-step README. - The required plugin names, baseline notes, and exact player permissions. - Safe example startup arguments with placeholders for the seed, ports, player limit, and RCON password. Requirements and Setup You need a current RustDedicated server, the production version of Carbon, access to the server files and console, and the plugins listed in PLUGIN-LIST.txt. The package targets uMod Trade 1.2.48 with the small Carbon compatibility fix used by the original server; the current official download still contains the unsupported OnlinePlayers attribute, so the unmodified file will not compile on Carbon. 1. Install or update RustDedicated through SteamCMD. 2. Install production Carbon and start the server once. 3. Download the plugins named in PLUGIN-LIST.txt from their official pages and place them in carbon/plugins. 4. Copy this package into the Rust server root and use ynkes_3x as the server identity. 5. Replace every CHANGE_ME value and enter your own branding, seed, ports, player limit, and unique RCON password. 6. Check the PERMISSIONS.txt and complete the README.txt test checklist before opening the server publicly. With Rust, Carbon, and the plugins ready, the initial setup should take around 15–30 minutes. Before You Buy Version 1.0.0 Server startup complete on RustDedicated build 2633.288.1 and Carbon 2.0.259.0 test on 12 September 2026. If you want a tidy 3X base with sensible rates, curated loot, the common quality-of-life features players expect, and clear documentation for everything the owner needs to do, this pack is ready for your server.
