Hey Ich777,
Edit: darn its just the testlive one - not stable one yet. So up to you and others if you want to spend time on it yet. It seems like a popular game though.
Looks like Night of the Dead have a dedicated server now, yeah its Windows 64bit.

Guide
Prerequisites
64-bit Windows
Steam client
SteamCMD
Install
Install SteamCMD on your host.
Launch SteamCMD on your host and use it to download the server files.(Remove the < > and replace them with double quotes, for example, force_install_dir "C:NOTDServer")
(app id : 1420710)
Steam> login anonymous
Steam> force_install_dir <install_dir>
Steam> app_update 1420710 validate
Steam> exit
Port
We basically use the two ports below.
UDP 27015 : Game query port
UDP 7777 : Game client port
Set the ports as an exception in the firewall.
Open these ports through Port-Forwarding.
If you would like to change the port you are using, the next step will explain how to change the port.
Host
In the installed folder, open "ServerSettings.ini" to edit as desired.
Please change the default in each section to the desired value.
for example :
[ServerSettings]
ServerName=MyServerName
[SystemSettings]
SaveName=MySave
[GameSettings]
Difficulty=Legend
NoTeamKill=True
Run StartServer.bat
a. (Optional) If you want, you can edit StartServer.bat to change which port you use.(for example : LFBinariesWin64LFServer.exe ?listen -log -Port=7779 -QueryPort=27016)
Save file location : <install_dir>LFSavedSaveGames
You can save and load the save file by matching SaveName (in [SystemSettings]) and the save in the above location.
Play
Join to the dedicated server session requires same version of the server and client.
Select server_test Branch from the SteamLibrary->Night of the dead->Properties->BETAS.
(Select beta you would like to opt into : server_test)
You will be able to join the server session.
by steam user Pure: Alright, so this guide works but you have to make sure under "Host"-->"2. Run StartServer.bat" that your file has the ports that you port forwarded. For example: "LF\Binaries\Win64\LFServer.exe ?listen -log -Port=7777 -QueryPort=27015"
