Reforged Eden II is the current Reforged Eden scenario path for Empyrion servers. It is installed through Steam Workshop, then selected in the Empyrion server configuration. Use this guide for new Reforged Eden saves or for servers moving to Reforged Eden 2 Beta.
Before You Install Reforged Eden II
Take a backup first: How to backup your Empyrion server save. Changing scenario is a major world change, so use a fresh save name unless you are deliberately continuing an existing Reforged Eden II save. Reforged Eden II is also heavier than vanilla Empyrion, so larger saves and busy servers may need more RAM.
Install Reforged Eden II From Steam Workshop
- Open your Empyrion server in the control panel.
- Stop the server before installing Workshop content or changing the active scenario.
- Click Steam Update and let it finish so the base server files are current.
- Click Steam Workshop.
