You can upload your own game saves to your own server via an FTP connection. You can find more information about the FTP connection HERE<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Proceed as follows for your server:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Start your server once, so that all necessary server files are created (then stop your server via our web interface)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Now connect to your server via FTP connection<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. In the interface you will see on the right side the data of the server and on the left side the data of your PC<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Now open the path to the local data of 7 Days To Die on your PC on the left side (you will find a “saves” folder there)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Move (or copy) this folder to the right side of the screen.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  6. The existing “saves” folder will be replaced by the new one<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  7. After the upload is finished, go to the basic settings of your server in our webinterface<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  8. There you will find the item “game name”<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  9. You have to adjust this exactly as it was in your savegame before<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    IMPORTANT:<\/strong> With an RWG map, the seed and size must also be stored in the basic settings exactly as they were in single player, otherwise it will create a new world instead of loading the existing one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    If this also worked, you can start your server again. We wish you a lot of fun while playing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
