The Genstructures Official project provides a lot of ready to use places as sets of region files.
However, in order to use these files, you'll have to replace your server "world/level.dat" file with the one provided in the Genstructures Base.
What follows is a comparison of Genstructures level.dat file against a freshly installed one.
Blocks ID differences[]
While mostly identical to a standard LOTR mod installation, the numbering of blocks seems to have diverged starting with the LOTRmod v33.2 update.
This offset in block's numbering may have been caused by the use of the Rings of Power mod by the General Structures project owner (it adds 20 rings of power... as items are often declared both as items and tiles).
This might not be too much of an issue as the new blocks probably won't have been used in many of their available structures, but it will worsen over time.
Here's the list of differences:

Other differences[]
The "level.dat" file provided in the Genstructures Base is a singleplayer Middle-earth world type file.
As such it is parametered for:
- Creative game type
- Allow cheats ON
- Keep Inventory TRUE
It also contains:
- a Russian World Name
- a single player data
And most important, a specific random seed which is probably necessary in order to generate new chunks in a coherent way towards those that are provided.
For convenience, we offer an alternate "level.dat" Base file, ready to use for servers, with the following characteristics:
- Multiplayer
- Classical world type (Overworld + Nether + End + Middle-earth dimensions)
- Players start in the Overworld
- Survival game type
- Allow Cheats OFF
- Keep Inventory FALSE
- classical "world" World Name
- no player data included
- the Genstructures random seed
- the Genstructures Blocks & Items values
