How to upload your local savegame to your server

How to upload your local Windrose savegame to your xREALM server

Follow these steps to transfer your local save to the server via SFTP using FileZilla.

1. Stop your server

Before uploading anything, stop your server in the xREALM panel.

2. Open the Advanced tab

Go to the Advanced tab in your server panel. There you’ll find your SFTP details.

The port is included at the end of the server address.

3. Open FileZilla

Launch FileZilla on your PC.

4. Enter your login details

Use the SFTP credentials from your server panel to connect.

5. Understand both sides in FileZilla

In FileZilla:

• Right side = your server files

• Left side = your local PC files

6. Open the save directory on the server

On the server side, go to:

/R5/Saved/SaveProfiles/Default/RocksDB_v2_Backups/Worlds

7. Open your local save directory

On the local PC side, go to the folder where your Windrose savegame is stored.

C:\Users\(User)\AppData\Local\R5\Saved\SaveProfiles\<profile>\RocksDB_v2_Backups\Worlds

8. Upload the savegame

Drag your save folder from the left side to the right side.

9. Wait for the upload to finish

Make sure the upload is fully completed before continuing.

10. Open the uploaded save in the server panel

Go back to your server panel and open:

/container/R5/Saved/SaveProfiles/Default/RocksDB_v2_Backups/Worlds

Open the new save folder you just uploaded.

11. Copy the IslandId

12. Open ServerDescription.json

Now go to:

/R5/ServerDescription.json

13. Insert the IslandId

Find this line:

"WorldIslandId":

Paste the copied IslandId there so the server loads the correct world.
And make sure "AutoLoadLatestBackupIfHasBroken" = true

14. Start your server

Once everything is saved, start your server again.

Your server should now load the uploaded Windrose savegame.
