mjr819 1 Report post Posted September 14, 2017 Unfortunately, I have chosen to stop hosting my server at the end of the month (time to move on to another game). Anyway, I know about the incremental backups, but that doesn't contain all of the server data. Usually, those incremental backups only have map, position, and maybe the items in your inventory. How do I obtain a full server backup so that when (if) we come back to ark, I can re-upload the info and be off and running again. Thanks in advance.

To edit/upload/save/delete files via FTP, use the following method: Stop your server from the panel Log in to FTP using WinSCP (a free FTP software) using the connection details found in the "FTP Details" section of the game server control panel Navigate to the directory you wish to upload or edit a file After uploading your files in the proper directories, start your server from the panel You may found a download link for WinSCP here: http://winscp.net/eng/download.php The file would be located in the SAVEDARKS folder.

For ark you will want to head into the following area ShooterGame/Saved/ Save all the content in that saved folder to your desktop and it will be golden. That contains the player data, map data, tribes, and what not. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
