Embark on a seamless transition of your Enshrouded adventures from local play to the expansive realms of online multiplayer. Uploading your save game to a server not only elevates your experience but also invites others to partake in the world you've meticulously crafted.
This guide provides a straightforward method for preparing, renaming, and uploading your Enshrouded save game, ensuring it meets server requirements and is ready for continued exploration and expansion.
Preparing Your Save Game
The first step involves locating and preparing your Enshrouded save files on your computer. These files encapsulate the progress, structures, and intricate details of your world, making them essential for a seamless transition to server play.
-
Locate Your Local Save
-
Navigate to your Enshrouded save directory, typically found in your Steam userdata folder.
-
The path usually looks something like this:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\[YourSteamID]\1203620\remote-
Replace
[YourSteamID]with your SteamID64
-
-
-
Identify the Necessary Files
-
Look for the files representing your world. They will have a format similar to
3bd85c7dand3bd85c7d_info.
-
-
Renaming Your Save Files
-
For compatibility with your server, renaming the save files is a crucial step. This ensures that when you upload your save, the server recognizes and correctly loads your world.
-
Rename the files to match the server's expected format (this can be done before or after you have uploaded the save)
-
3bd85c7dshould be renamed to3ad85aea -
3bd85c7d_infoshould be renamed to3ad85aea_info
-
-
Uploading Your Renamed Save Game
With your save game renamed, the next step is to upload the files to your server.
-
Stop your server on the control panel
- To prevent the server automatically overwriting your upload, you will need to stop your Enshrouded server
-
Connect to Your Server via FTP or use the file manager
-
Utilize an FTP client such as FileZilla to establish a connection to your server. For detailed instructions on setting up and connecting via FTP, refer to our How to Connect to FTP guide.
- Alternatively use the File Manager located on your control panel
-
-
Navigate to the Save Directory
-
Navigate to the
savegamefolder - In the case you have changed the default folder from the above, navigate to the folder name you've chosen for saves
-
-
Upload the Renamed Files
-
Transfer the renamed files (
3ad85aeaand3ad85aea_info) from your local machine to the server'ssavegamedirectory, overwriting any existing files as necessary.
-
-
Start your Enshrouded Server
- Your Enshrouded server hosting should now load your world, allowing you to continue your adventure where you left off, with all progress preserved and now shareable with friends or the wider community.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues during the upload process, ensure that:
- The FTP connection is correctly established, with all credentials accurately entered.
- The renamed files are correctly placed in the server's
savegamedirectory. - The server is restarted after the upload to ensure changes take effect.
