Trying to transfer local game to server, keeps forcing me to create a new character.

[SIN_ 0]

I have the .arktribe, .arkprofile and TheIsland.ark files.

I have copied these over to the SavedArk folder, I've also renamed .arkprofile to include my Steam ID.

Yet each time I join the server, it wants me to make a new character.

When I FTP into the server, I don't have the ability to delete anything from the SavedArk directory either, so it has backups, anticorruption and newlaunch backups too. Unsure if they could be messing with things, but I have no ability to delete.

 

Any ideas?

You need to have support help you. I had the exact same issue.
