  1. Yeah it was very confusing how the servers are set up. Seems like a money dump atm, going to wait to see what survial servers does after Christmas. I want to see the entire maps but dont want to spend 500$ a month to unlock it, and the official servers are terrible and it would take a year to veiw everything
  2. admin console from the webpage so i can do work without being in the game
  3. I absolutly understand what your going through AnimuseSportsand i wish and very hopefull that someone builds a plugin shortly for this. Because that is the only way outside of the Devs it going to get done.
  4. and in order to edit the spawn files you will need 1.blender 2.UE4 .uasset files are specific to UE4 I have a friend who develops apps with UE4 and he has said to me "Have fun" I think he was being sarcastic.
  5. why cann't you make a copy of the ftp files? shoudl be just drag and drop on to your desktop, i did it the other day.
  6. yup that is the easiest way to do it and there is less transfering of files from server to your pc, it can save on bandwidth depending on what ISP plan you have aswell
  7. Yes the Contents of the folder, not the folder itself. Until Ark is a completed game with full mod support messing with folders could create corrupt files or folders. I found in the past with other servers if i deleted the folder the best thing to do was to recreate the folder exactly. Sometimes the game server would recreate the folder but in another location, or in the same location but invisable to FTP programs. I would be interested in what happens if you tried to delete the folder itself and tried restarting the server. another way to save the world but keep the folder but recreate the world is this 1.turn off the server 2.create another folder called SavedArk 3.rename the old folder 1stSavedark 4.restart the server, the game should not recognize the old folder and use the new one you recreated This is the best way and save space on my machine.(though takes up space on the server) Sometimes the host would call me to tell me that I have taken up to much memory room.
  8. do all of your saving and server editing via ftp, this will make your life that much easier.
  9. so i checked mine and i see her that my sever saved 30mins ago so i think it is only a select amount of servers that this affects have been talking to Tirent in teamspeak and been looking for the auto save feature within the files i would like to know where to find the autosave plugin ♪♬Some day over the rainbow, we will get this going ♪♬
  10. reminder that when you want to save th world to pull the folder before you stop the server, that might help. now if you are still having problems, then your server seems like it is not saving at all with the information that you provided an admin should be able to help you directly with your server since you posted this does anyone else have anything to add. and i'm really sorry about the long wait between posts, I was at work and just got home. Again these things take time and i hope that they will get better for you, I'm sure they will. Ham ham.teamspeak3.com
  11. so you want o place a world into your server 1.stop your server 2.if the server need to do updates, do so now, this will auto start your server again. 3.once the server is up again and is joinable, you can stop it again. 4.drag the saved folder SavedArk that is on your computer and place it back into the Shooter/saved/ folder 5. it should ask you if you want to over write some files, yes to all 6.make sure you are watching the load bar at the bottom of the filezilla program and make sure all files are completely installed 7.once done transfering files, start server again. ***note the reason i said to do 2 restarts is because to prevent over writing from patches i perfer to restart the server every time I do one thing, too prevent conflicts. some people feel this might be taking it a step to far, they sir never owned a minecraft server with 145 mods plus 50+ addons. By doing it one at a time you have to ability to find a problem faster. Put in to many conflicts at once make it harder to find the one problem. Just look a the forum, pertaining the CVR commands. i hope this was helpful Ham ham.teamspeak3.com
  12. alright, download this program https://filezilla-project.org/ Client Version not server version and just in case this program https://notepad-plus-plus.org/ now make sure you do the custom install as there is spam products within the install of filezilla once installed, it is ideal to do a window restart, to make sure the install is done. now open Filezilla now you have some info on your control panel about ftp info enter in your host(FTP IP address) username given to you via ftp access password(the one you have set for only you ftp access) and port number hit quickconnect(btw you can now after these steps use the quickconnect drop down button to access your server in the future) so navagate yourself to this file shooterGame/Saved/Savedfiles take the savedarks folder and drag it to your desk top Tada you now have a saved world on your computer. i have more to come so hold on, this should keep you for a bit
  13. do you know how to open an FTP server, is the first question?
  14. Really sorry, that you are having trouble with your auto save feature. Ive been testing with friends with my sever to see roll back times and our admincheat saveworld command also does not work, but we did noticed that the server does save every 20mins, which is good. 20min roll back is better that an 8 hour loss. You have to keep in mind that with a newly developed game like this that there is going to be problems like this and hopefully in the next few months things will start to stabilize. There is alot of people out there currently making mods\features for the game, everything takes time. LOTS OF TIME.
  15. that would be a great feature but it would be done by a mod of sorts, or ever hav ve to be made by the hosting company. i might be interested in that as well. will ask around
  16. delete everything inside of the savedark folder in FTP
  17. i understand the addexperience 1000 0 0 command but how do you give xp to another, or specific player that you only know th name? tried looking through all the player date for the number assosiated wiht plyer but could not find them
  18. and what you shooting there an EGO?
  19. mine took almost 24 hours but that was at the begining of launch, you might see less than 12 hours
  20. i agree, running a server is never easy, I co-owned and helped run a Tekkit minecraft server for a year and we were top 3 in the world for almost 6 months, i'll tell you it not is piece of cake.(most stress in my life) but with new games everyone wants a server but really doesn't know what the hell they are doing.
  21. with all the updates though sometime i will update the server and a they will update the client again and thats were sometime we run into problems a professioanl company would sched patches every day at the same time once servers are stable eg: 8am PST roll one patch a day butttttttttttt long gone are the good ol days
  22. once i hit update on my server, normally it comes back on in 5mins some times 6-7 mins.
