Good luck everyone! If you have issues, please check this additional reddit post! / kj5nul0
In case you are still having issues, or you feel like you are missing a step! I have now written up DETAILED instructions on reddit! www.reddit.com/r/Palworld/comments/19bcui7/comment/kj5nul0
Heyo I reached out to you on twitter. thank you for all the help in this video.
This still hasn't worked for me. I've tried every variant of the command I can possibly include as well as that entire post on Reddit. Any chance you could make a follow-up video?
This still isn't seemingly to be making sense or it's infinite loading every time.
was able to do it Inused janniken webgui had a bit of trouble on the part where you need to create a new player level.sav to show it on the tool
I keep getting the error about the true or false about the guild and I've added it to the end but still get the error
I am very close to fixing the files I am just coming up on one error in the CMD.
ERROR: Invalid argument. It should be either "True" or "False".
Even though I am adding it at the end.

Thanks so much for clearly explaining everything. I’ve spent a long time trying to make sense of the various links articles and Reddit posts on this very topic but no one explained it in such an easy to understand way!
I love the creator of the github changed everything so its impossible to follow this easy guide
Okay not to be creepy but you have a GORGEOUS voice, your voice could be used for advertisements or weather channel or something. Super clear & crisp & your diction is wonderful.
Hahaha! It's ok, I've actually heard that from quite a few people before xD Appreciate it!
Thank you for this tutorial ♥
I was going crazy, but I finally fixed it first try with this method. It is a bit tricky not gonna lie, but also very simple!
Glad to hear you got everything working! :)
Could you give me a hand with this if you possibly have time?
thank you so much for making this video! really appreciate the step by step explanation, so much better than trying to understand the wall of texts on github lol. you just saved my life :D
Awesome to hear! Glad it helped :D
Hi there, I keep getting the error Python not found in Powershell. I've installed, repaired, uninstalled, and re-installed to no fix.
**EDIT: Figured it out, had to install Python from the Microsoft Store app for it to work.
Glad you got it working!
Is my old host save file meant to be like this "00000000000000000000000000000001.sav"? because when i run the python script i get this error :
ERROR: Your player save does not exist. Did you enter the correct new GUID of your player? It should look like "8E910AC2000000000000000000000000".
Did your player create their character with the provided save? Once they create their character, a file called "C:\mypc\user\Downloads\uesave editor\Players/Players/8FD648B7000000000000000000000000.sav" should appear. Look back over the steps in the README on how to get your new GUID.
PS C:\Users\mypc\Downloads\uesave editor>
Assuming you loaded onto the new server and created a character, I think you gotta at least make your character and be able to move around. It also looks like they updated the process a tiny bit since the video was uploaded. Check the file path. She doesn’t include \players when providing the file path to the two players saves.
during the powershell part, i get a response after hitting enter that python was not found; run without arguments to install from Microsoft Store. But i have python installled from the link you provided.
I was able to fix it. Now just working on the guild issue like you mentioned
how you fixed ut
@@JoshVidal
@@Firesteal downloaded Python from the microsoft store.
Thank you so much! You must work in IT because you are great at walking people through technical computer stuff.
Hahaha I did for 15yrs, yes xD LOTS of experience walking people through processes of all levels!
If you get stuck at around 7:45 and notice you that you dont see those particular files in your folder, its because you have STEAM's Cloud Save function turned on. Right click Palworld in steam -> Properties -> Uncheck Keep games on Steam cloud -> Load into your world, and exit to Save. It should now show the proper files.
Thank you for this!
@@NyghtWolf I know this is kinda late, but do you guys have a problem where the damage number you see doesnt match the actual damage? Im having this problem and im not sure why
First of all, this tutorial is very well made and easy to follow. I have close to zero experience and I've managed to get it working thanks to your excellent explanation.
however, I do have one issue. Me and my friend are running a co-op server, and when I did this myself, it says we are not in the Guild. (For context, in our co-op save, me and him are in our OWN guilds. Just him in his, and just me in mine.) Is there a work-around for this?
Awesome to hear, but sorry you're having trouble with the guild stuff. Before you did this, did you transfer control of the guild to another player in your co-op game? This seems to be a good work around/fix for most people that I wish the written instructions emphasized more, cause I would have made sure to highlight it more in this vid
@NyghtWolf I didn't, because it's only me and him on the co op world. I will try and log in with an alt steam account and take control of his guild. Thanks!
I am amazed! The EXACT tutorial I needed and the first google search that came up. You have earned yourself a sub.
did you get it to work? also im trying to move my coop save to my friends server this will work right?
@@anthonyfranco2299 It did work, we do have a few issues. 1) make sure you give guild ownership in the coop world away from host before moving the save. 2) you might not be able to see each other on the map anymore after the transition
So if I'm understanding this, this transfers the host's save data from the co-op (join with code). How do you then transfer other player's data on the co-op world and have all their pals, bases, items etc transfer?
Correct! And that involves more how to set up a server, rather than tis niche issue that a lot of people are having. All of those items are saved in the level.dat, so copying over the contents of the hosts' save folder to the dedicated servers' save folder would do the trick.
@@NyghtWolf Awesome thank you. So I get to the point of going through all the steps but the host gets stuck in a never ending loading loop. Any ideas as to why?
Thank you so much... the tools still working, though the steps are a lil bit different with the previous one, still thankyou for the info
Nice tutorial i save the video and will try it first thing tomorrow.
I got so stuck reading the tutorial on github that i gave up. But seeing it like this makes more sense.
Agreed- I ended up doing a lot of unnecessary steps I thought needed to be done in order to run UESave & python.. and that just wasn't the case & wasted a ton of time getting frustrated. Hopefully this works for you tomorrow! GL!
@@NyghtWolf got a question at 8:26 do i have to put ONLY my (OLD HOST) and (NEW HOST) in there excluding the existing other players sav files or can i just dump the old Players file in there?
Its still making me create a new character after following everything. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Any ideas?
It kinda depends on if you're getting an error, or if it's just not working. Check out the text guide & see if anything is missing- I made a comprehensive step-by-step to supplement this vid.. it may help! www.reddit.com/r/Palworld/comments/19bcui7/comment/kj5nul0/?context=3
@@NyghtWolf I've followed that as well. I'm wondering now if it is because originally it was a single player server converted to a local coop, then changed again to a dedicated server.
I also facing the same. I followed every steps, but it still asking to create a new char. Maybe because no-one has join my world before so it's not considered co-op?
I've been trying to transfer character sav file to a dedicated server for couple days now without success. It keep loading into character creation regardless how many time I goes through tutorials and guides. Anyone possibly have a solution or a video guiding from A to Z?
I'm in the same boat. This guide is very different from the github's instructions.
have u made sure u also replace the modified levels .sav into the dedicated server?
I followed up to the very end because the github is updated so the video isnt that useful anymore at that part. Can you tell me whether you did the transfer for every persons character as well? Only the host is keeping their character afterwards.
Yes, once the hosts' sav file is copied, the other players need theirs as well if they want their stuff
where did you get the other sav file from 9:45 minutes of the video? what sav files are needed there? I only have the 001
That'd be the hosts' file from when the connected to the server. ie The blank file it makes when the connect to the server for the first time & make a new character
in your written instructions you wrote "I deleted the other two .sav files that I knew was not my friends' character data (they both had the correct GUID, my friends' had the 00000000001 cause they were the host)". Were you not concerned with accidently deleting someone elses character who wasn't the host?
I had the data backed up elsewhere & there was nothing to update in the data since I did this before we started playing on the server :)
I got the world and my host player working. But my friend is having to start over, how do i get his player on here.
Did you also move your friends' .sav files to the servers' Players folder? That should work for them.
O Hai Nyght! Fancy meeting you here.
Hello, I followed your guide and I managed to make it so that my progress from my coop server was able to be transferred to a dedicated server (I am the host), however when my friends who had previously played on our coop server tried joining on the dedicated server, they have to make new characters and their progressed was not transferred. I checked the Players folder in the dedicated server, and it seems as though they are being assigned new UIDs different than the ones they had on our coop server. A few questions I had are:
- Should my friends' SAV files from our co-op world be in the Players folder in the new dedicated server?
- Is it possible to use the python script on my friends SAV files using the same method in the video to make it so that their progress is transferred?
- During the initial dedicated server set up process when I as the host must join the server in order to get my new UID, should I have my friends also join so that I can get their new UIDs to then later convert their UIDs using the python script?
Thank you for the guide and any help would be greatly appreciated.
Yes, put your friends' sav files into the Players folder in the server :) And no, the script won't work on their files, but they shouldn't need it.
You don't have to have your friends join, their UUIDs are correct to start with (or should be)
When joining other people besides the host have to make new characters even with all of the players .savs in the players folder. Any reason why this is. @@NyghtWolf
does the host need to give you guild control because the one making the server needs to be the one with guild control to get that second file, or because its important that the host player just isn't part of the guild. Im doing this for myself, not a friend, but i am also the guildmaster in the file i want to move. do i need to leave my guild?
The host needs to give it to someone because otherwise it bugs out. You probably don't want to leave as that will disband the guild. I don't know if there's an easy solution to that
i am the host and all my friends play on my coop server. so how do i bring their progression as well?
It will be brought with the world save. Only the host needs the fix. No need to worry about their progression
@@FlatMtnDew thanks a lot it worked it really helped a lot....
Having some issues where I think the save file isn't being read correctly from Windows -> Ubuntu. I'm able to start the server and load in on AWS, with my correct characters, pals, bases, etc, but then the server crashes less than a minute after being on. Going from Windows (Local machine/Co-Op) to AWS's Ubuntu 8GBs. No crashes if I just start fresh with and don't try to transfer the save, so I think this is likely related either to the character file or the save file and not how I setup the Ubuntu server. Any advice?
@@Parritz No, unfortunately. From what I saw on the xNul's github, this does not yet appear to be supported since it's the only option not labeled there with instructions as far as I can tell.
Hey did you ever figure this out? I'm currently dealing with the exact same problem. Could absolutely use some help if you solved this :)
@@jamckley While I personally just restarted from scratch with a brand new server, the main issue others have suggested is it might be a read/write issue. So you may just need to CHMOD the files/folders to be accessible
everything is going right but i can't interact or lift pal which is in base how can i solve it
Do you have to transfer the new level.sav to the server per user? Or can u just do that for the host and just do the save swap.
I currently do not have any saves. I went straight into my friend's server but decided to switch over to a semi-solo playthrough (I am playing w/ my partner). So I have 2 questions: 1. Do I need to make a quick save file for this to work? 2. would this work for my partner's save file as well? We both use the same network and have decided to depart from our friend's server as it was too laggy to play in..
i don'nt know if i have missed it but why is in your UESaveEditor folder the "CBCCCFF..." folder? Do I have to copy the local world folder into this folder too? Or why is it in there?
That's where I backed up the world save to. Sorry for any confusion that may have caused!
Unfortunately I followed your tutorial, and the world loaded up, but the host was still prompted to create a new character. I also deleted the backup folders, no change. Any advice?
It depends a bit on where the process is getting hung up. I made a comprehensive step-by-step to supplement this vid.. it may help! www.reddit.com/r/Palworld/comments/19bcui7/comment/kj5nul0/?context=3
Thank you, pretty straight forward... My question is, what tutorial(s) did you follow to actually create the local-multiplayer to dedicated server? Im still stuck there. IDK if its just people in general, but the instructions, as you pointed out, are all over the place with this issue, as well as when it comes to creating a dedicated server from a local-multiplayer.
TYIA
It won't let me use the cd command in powershell. Powershell defaults to my C drove, when everything is in my D drive. I even tried moving the file to my C drive, and it still wouldn't let me use cd command
And what's worse is I'm not even wanting to play with anyone. I just have a bug on my world where different bases won't stay loaded when I walk away, so my ore farming base doesn't do anything unless I'm near by, but I've seen other people just let the base farm while they are away
i tried everything...nothing works. Followed this instructions, followed the instructions below, nothing. :(
i do not get the very end part where it needs to input the parameters what save path ? what new guid ? what old guid ?
so me and my friends were playing in coop and the host quit playing. so now i want to become the host of the same server we played on. so if i follow your tutorial step by step can i become the host of the server or do i need to change some stuff?
i wonder why i can't find my uesave.exe, i follow every single step but stuck at there cus can't find the exe
So I just did everything you did in the video and when I reach the powershell step and run the command nothing happens, it just "reset" like i have pressed enter with nothing wrote
That's usually a python or Visual Studio error. Try reinstalling those!
Unfortuntely, seems like this guide is outdated because github updated their method. I got the the very last part of running the script but its different now :'(
Ohhh Is it? Hopefully it's a bit easier now! Thank you for the heads up, I'll go check it out!
If I am hosting the server, and my friend was the one who created the co op game, will I need to run this for both of our saves or just his?
Just for his! :) Your file can go into the 'Players' folder on the server normally
@@NyghtWolf Thanks
Hey, I am going from a local coop to a linux dedicated server (BisectHosting). I've done this like 5 times, every instruction done exactly how both you said, another youtube video said, and how even the github author said. The script seems like it works, taking my original "000001" (lot more zeroes but you get it) player save and batching it into my new one that I got from joining the dedi server I am migrating to. As soon as I join the dedi after pasting the files, it basically overrides the fixed new host file, and seems to remake the file from scratch, essentially as if someone would copy and paste a file and overwrite the data, and it sends me to the character screen. Any advice?
I was having the same issue i deleted the backups folder in the saved game on the dedicated server and that fixed it.
@@adamhalpin3342Yep, a lot of issues people are reporting, especially with remote hosting, can be solved by moving & deleting the world backups.
I have a suspicion that if the server hits a snag loading data, it just auto-defaults to a back up. If those aren't there, it probably continues the attmpt to load what it sees as a 'broken' file. (Which is really your patched host file)
I converted the save file of the host(not my coop server). but now he doesn't load into the server. it just keeps loading forever. Also do I have to do the conversion for all the people on the server ?
Nope you don't have to do the conversion for others! Just the host. And if it's getting the infinite loading, make sure you also copied the level.dat file & deleted any backup folders in the world folder. (Obviously put them someplace else in case)
@@NyghtWolf thank you! That solves the unlimited loading. I tried converting other save files that aren't the hosts. It works fine most of the time. But when I try with the host he always starts with a new account. Before and after the conversion.
There is something missing or something has changed since this video came out - Mine works flawlessly - I see the 000..1.sav being turned into the new GUID created from my "new" players save file on the server - I then copy that file and the level.sav back to the new server - fire up the server - fire off Pal - And it immediately makes me create a new character again as if the 000..1 files didnt turn into the new GUID at all.
Anyone else still has the tutorial quests pop up? I was able to recover my level, pals and such, but I have the annoying tutorial pop-up in the corner now. Do I have to defeat the first boss and catch 5 lamball again?
Before i even try all this do u know if it works to upload the files to dathost or some other server hosting platform?
Nygth, do you know if it is possible to transfer save data from my friends world to my dedicated server?
E.g: My friend was playing in his own world, can I transfer his character to mine?
I don't believe so because the level.dat has all the players data in it, & if they don't match, it seems to kick back with forcing them to make a new character. You'd need their level.dat too, which would wipe out anything you have build in that world
so ya for the guild part if you dont have anyone in your guild you get locked out of your stuff is there a fix for that?
From what someone mentioned to me on reddit.. dropping the pals you have in your hand & picking them back up can fix it. That's just what someone told me; I don't know if it works in all cases! Make sure you have a back up before you try!
Does the host/guild owner need to leave the guild after transferring over control to me?
Followed this earlier to succes but wanted to roll back to a different version of the server and now every time I do this it make me create a new character. I am not sure what I am missing now.
The issue we are running into now is that the host data was transferred and saved but everyone else's data was wiped, and the character creation showed up for everyone else. Does anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks for the video, still having issues with non-hosts save data not working. You just copied your save data over to your friends server and it was fine?
work for me but i lost the progress in the map and the tutorial. have any advise?
So that's not anything that can be fixed atm as far as I know. We experienced this as well
this worked amazingly but now my friends dont have their data what do i do?
You need to also move their .sav files to the same place you moved your fixed host file
can you make a video explaining how to fix GUID? :( we cant acess to our characters after update but we see our old buildings
wait, can i make my other friend join then import his player to my server so he keeps his stuff from his private server, we are 5 and he's been having to play solo
Nope, sorry. This is only for host -> server. The player data is tied to the level.dat, so replacing one, would mean the other gets overwritten
you helped a ton but I still got 2 player files in the output and I can't follow along well with the command line when you blur part of it.... makes it more confusing
okay now I think I got it. It put my merged player folder in the old backup we had in the uesave folder instead of the Player folder we put in the uesave
I blurred it because those are my friends' steam GUIDs. They will be different depending on your players & it's information that changes based on your set up.
Have a look at the written version, maybe in combo with the video, you can get it running! www.reddit.com/r/Palworld/comments/19bcui7/comment/kj5nul0
No matter what I do after following the github tutorial, this video, AND the written instructions to a T, I am still prompted to make new char and the level.sav and my new Guid sav file is overwritten and nothing copies over except the world. I've tried reinstallations, multiple host providers, nothing. No errors either.
Make you are doing everything as Admin, including starting your server as admin.. Solved the problem for me
Any idea on why my world save will transfer over but no player saves? I cant figure out why player data is not saving onto my dedicated server..
Not sure- a lot of people have reported this on reddit though. I'd keep an eye on some of those posts in case anyone finds a solution! I think it's a separate problem from this unfortunately.
hi there, thanks for the video, i am getting Python was not found; run without arguments to install from the Microsoft Store, or disable this shortcut from Settings > Manage App Execution Aliases. this error. Why is that? Also for save path...does that mean copying path of of my offline character's 00001 file?
Type “manage app execution aliases into the windows search bar and then turn off the 2 settings for Python. The save path is the location for the folder your world is in. Look at the example at 10:50

start it with py instead of python, worked for me@@kevinsoongwookkim6
I've got everything but the map and fast travel points? Is that a success? any way to fix that?
That's a success! :) Unfortunately it's just a thing that gets broken right now. We has this happen as well
@@NyghtWolf Our non-host player also lost his guild :(
Once I copy the 'fixed' host's character save and level.sav into the server files, do I also need to copy all the other player's saves into the server. (sorry if its a silly question)
Yes, you do, otherwise they other players will not have their character data. Hope you got it working!
when we have the single save file in the players folder and transfer it to the server folder, do we need to delete the save files in the server folder so there is only only one save file or just add the new save file?
You need to transfer the files inside the hosts' save folder to inside the servers save folder. Let it overwrite stuff if it needs to EXCEPT level.dat
What do you mean EXCEPT level.dat? I thought the whole point was to rewrite level.dat to match your hosts ID@@NyghtWolf
were renting a dedicated server, do anyone know how to change the ingame settings for example XP gain. when I change the save file and start the server back up, it doesn’t apply to the game.
Do you recall how long you had to wait at 11:55? Thankfully made it this far with everything, so I appreciate the tutorial highly.
**EDIT: disregard, tabbed back into powershell and pressed enter and it finished!
Yea, it took mine a bit too, to the point of I thought it was stuck lol Hope it works!
@@NyghtWolf Yep, got it to work out in the end! Little bit of a hiccup on the dedicated server side, but it's all fleshed out now! ♥
is there an issue going from windows to linux server???
how to transfer guild? the guild does not transfer no matter who was the host when i transfered
I'm not sure :( I've seen a few people have this issue on reddit as well, but I didn't encounter it, so I couldn't tell you. The post may have more replies from others who are working on it though!
Hi there,first of all really appreciate for this tutorial video.But i got some issue when i m doing these command on powershell,it just let me type again,it didnt show Warning: Running this script......... it just keep let me type another command,can i get any advice by that?
i did installed the python and c++ and all the step,it just cant run the command.
Appreciate for you help!
Keep running into an issue where when I run the code it tells me it can't find the character and some other stuff. However maybe not doing it right as I'm getting a bit lost still on all the locations needed - yours has a lot less than mine (no path and didn't see new and old numbers in yours)...
So I transferred the co-op save to the server, copied the host file to the UE 'Players' folder, then deleted *all* the player files from the server. I had the former host connect and copied that new sav data to the same UESave 'players' folder.
Had this issue too, found this worked from reddit, my issue is I was telling the directory to look in the Players folder in the script when it just needs to go to the folder itself
Jayman0101 9 hr. ago
I was getting this too because I did not organize the files for the script properly.
When running the script, the second arg (save_path) must point to the folder that contains your "Level.sav" file that you copied from the dedicated server. Inside this same folder, there must exist a "Players" folder which contains both the newly generated GUID .sav of the host as well as the original host's save file (...00001.sav). Then the script should run properly and leave you with a Level.sav and Players folder that contains only the new GUID .sav.
my friend hosted the saved world, so i followed these steps and my character and other worked however my friend (who hosted the saved server) got stuck at the loading screen when he tried to connect to dedicated server. It seems like the file got corrupted. do you know how to fix this?
If they got stuck, I found that it was because either the level.dat was also not copied (be warned, this will backdate your server to the last version of their co-op save) or there is backup data left over in the world directory that has conflicting info.
In the world directory, if there is a backup folder, remove it. Either delete it, or cut/paste it elsewhere. Hope that helps!
@@NyghtWolf for the world directory, would that be me who created dedicated server or my friend who got stuck ?
@@TheJimmyfamIn the situation we're talking about, it'd be the servers' world folder! Just be sure to have a copy of it somewhere else, just in case!
Thanks, saved me some time. Luckily I took a Python course in the past so I already had Python installed on my PC lol
So if we are using this method to transfer our own single player > dedicated, I'm assuming there is no way to assume the old character/pals since I can't do the guild transfer?
Possibly. I haven't played in SP, so I don't know if it's something you can just open up to co-op or not. If it IS, you could try that with a friend who plays.. if not, then no I don't think so
Came here with this exact issue from single player. Im thinking since it was mentioned that being the guild owner status prevents this from working so do we need to invite a friend in first, hand them the ownership to the guild and then this process should work. I need answers lol
it dosent seem to work fpr me for some reason i keep getting an error can anyone help me
I'm triple commenting now! When I do this, it resets MY OWN character, but doesn't reset the co-op hosts (it's my dedicated server, my friend was the co-op host)
Assuming these instructions may not work with a gportal server? Going to keep trying and update here if I have any luck
That really depends on how gportals folders are structured & if you have FTP access to move those files on & off the server.
@@NyghtWolf I do. Think I made some progress and will go back tomorrow and try again. The git hub has since been updated with some additional instructions and the guild error seems to be resolved
@@NyghtWolf Got it to work today with G-portal!
@@Jamesanator hi im trying to do the same thing. what are the different things i should do since its a g portal server
GOATed guide. Saved my dumb ass
Host fix worked out. But now my friend needs to create a new Char, which would not be a big issue.
The big issue is, I am not able to pick up Pal`s.
Do you already have a solution for this?
I tried already to find wrong Guilds in the "level.sav" file, but there was only our Guild.
Other than this, I did not find any solution.
You did already an amazing Job. Thank you very much for this.
Hey - first of all thank you for your nice guide. It almost worked out for me. I did all your steps (and i set up a new server for it where i spawned one time for my GUID) but still needed to create a new char. So i closed the game and copied my F1XX0C900..0 file to the dedicated server again while replacing the "old new one". I was able to log in but have no access to my stuff: it says it's from another's person guild. My map didnt show the already discovered places from my co-op aaaand there's a bug with my left mous button: It doesnt lock for auto-hits which means i'd need to press the button over and over again to farm some wood & stuff.
Do you know this issue and - do you know a way to fix it? I already wasted 2 evenings for this whole thing and i'm starting to get desparate.
So as for the guild thing, that's a known issue & there are a few work arounds posted on reddit- I'd suggest checking the post link in the vid description to try out the solutions people have found (there's too many to post here)
As for the map, this is a known issue & so far I don't think anyone has found a work around for it. Luckily, when you get close, the points will light up again so you can teleport once more without having to go & click them.
The left mouse button thing I am not 100% sure on.. that sounds like a config issue- could try resetting your keybinds to defaults for giggles, see if it helps?
@@NyghtWolf hey, thank you for your answer
i srsly couldnt find one in the reddit post - are you sure?
@@NyghtWolf and - what's the right order to do the steps?
1. create new server
2. spawn there
3. close all
4. take the newly created GUID and do the GUID and save swap with the program
5. Change the file name like 2710F6A543D9F2F45E858585A84F4D73 to the one from the co-op
6. change the same thing in DedicatedServerName
7. delete the old server Player GUID and Save and replace with new
8. copy LevelMeta, LocalData and WorldOption from co-op to Server
9. start server and log in. In character creation press Alt+F4 and swap GUID again
10. add the GUID from no Host Friends
11. start the game
is there something wron in my list?
This is great! Do you think this something they will support in the future? I have some friends who might want to co op, but probably wouldn't need a dedicated server for awhile. Would be nice if they gave you a way to do this in game in the future.
Thank you very much for posting this.
Thanks for making a dedicated tutorial on the matter, saving us from investing that much time in trying to figure it out ourselves you're a true life saver ❤
Small tip if you wanna bring up consoles in the future, you can type Cmd or in this case Powershell in the Explorer Path and it will start up the console in that directory~
Yea, I'm an IT professional- haha I was doing it the way most people would probably go to look for it & for some reason doing it that way when I was recording busted the script? Sooo did it the long way around just in case xD
What if we’re not all in the same guild?
Thank you so much... saved me a heck of a lot of time.
I have no idea why, but now it's saying that I'm not in my own guild (I wasn't the original co-op host). No idea why this could even be happening, but I'll update this post if I manage to fix it.
Thanks this really came in clutch. Also I've been gaming on pc for the last 15 years and just now learned how to use git hub
Never too late! :D Github has become SUPER useful for gamers in the past few years, so it's good to learn your way around it :D
@@NyghtWolf Quick question does this only work on the host's save? I tried to move my friends save over in the exact same way and now they get an infinite loading screen when they connect.
Thanks for the help! Any way to keep my map data and fast travel points?
Sadly, not that I know of. We lost all our waypoints as well :( But at least we had our builds & pals!
This helped a lot! I didn’t know Powershell was the thing I was needing and seeing it actually run was useful. Thank you
is there a way to transfer between co op worlds?
Nope, sorry :( Player data is tied to the level.dat, so one will always need to overwrite the other
Thank you. Works good, but map progress lost. Is it normal?
Unfortunately it's just a thing that gets broken right now. We has this happen as well
@@NyghtWolf in short, the server should create a save with the same name as your friend's save. You can't let him create a new name.
@@NyghtWolf I tried all the ways to write you a solution to the problem, UA-cam deletes all my comments. I don't know what words are prohibited. I can send you the solution on some social network if you want.
My world map is transferred but K akways need to create a new character.
Its work from dedicated to local transfer?
I don't think it goes backwards, no. Sorry!
Can you help me do mines im a little slow, i can pay.
Hey, will this work the other way round?
Nope, sorry :( The script is written to go from co-op-> dedicated
Yeah I'm pretty sure the made some big changes to the script. It now makes the changes in the save folder you put the path to. so you no longer seem to need the extra Level.sav file or the extra Players folder. Just use the ones in the save folder.
Can you help me with this? The powershell part says it can't open the fix host file and says "no such file or directory" when it's defintiely there and liek for like name/filepath
Will the other way around work?
Nope, sorry! Script was set up to convert data one way
Thank you for the clear tutorial, just a heads up there may have been some improvements made to the fix tool since when I did my first test of the character save the guild it was in was kept and everything else was fulling kept the only thing that did not keep was the progress through the tutorial steps it was letting me complete them again.
Absolute life saver!
Should I use steamcmd to make the dedicated server?
I usually never leave a like on videos but im honestly so grateful for this video, got nervous this would corrupt stuff but worked perfect thank you!!!!!!!!!!
Thank u for the video. It helped me alot. I converted my hosted coop. After completing your insctructions I converted my level.sav to json from the savegame folder of the server, opened it via editor and searched for guild_name. You fill find ur guild information from the co op and the level of the guild base. In this section there are all the players listed, who are in the guild. I just changed my old player guid from the coop ending with 01 with the new one created in the player folder of the server. No i have all my pals. gear and level from the coop game and iam still in the guild. Maybe solves the problem assigning the correct guild after migrating ur coop game to a dedicated server.
