[Solved] Cannot migrate solo world to server 4/05/2026

[merry badger]

• World loads properly on single player
• Before update we could ocnnect to server , but it was crashing after few minutes of play

Why do we have rocksDB and rocks DB v2 now T_T ?

[astral perch]

this was needed in order to do a propper migration for save files from old version to new one

can you please provide a few additional detials what issue ytou are encountering it is not very lcear from the report

[merry badger]

So should i put world files now into rocks db v2 ?

[merry badger]

I will but first i want to re-upload world, now im confused which is proper DB , normal or v2 LOL

From user perspective its not good to keep different name of save folders... I haver automatic connection via FTP to backup the RocksDB , now i have to change to RocksDB_v2 ? and next update RocksDB_V3

And the world is gone...

Ok connectikon fixe,d now i have another error, but will put it in another topic.

[astral perch]

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Windrose\R5\SaveWorkflow.md

saveworkflow is described in here

[astral perch]

we can continue here it's fine

you managed to find your world?

[merry badger]

ye so my steps:

1. Clean reinstall of server
2. Launcehd the game in offline mode, the old world.
3. Zipped the world from rocks DB_v2
4. Unzipped the world on the server
5. Server creates new world as it was corrupeted

let me check again i put one building element and will try to reupload...

the.xzip file is my solo world, that works properly. It was copied from Same directory (rocksDB_v2)

The game is instantly creating 3 additional worlds when i join the serverO_O

Cannot migrate solo world to server 4/05/2026

[astral perch]

okay

In rocksdb_v2_backups under appdata, you should find a ZIP archive of your world named _Latest (it will appear after launching the game)

Place this ZIP archive in the same path inside Didicated server's saves folder, specify this world’s ID in dedicated server’s config, and delete all folders except rocksdb_v2_backups.

[terse shoal]

Will all this fix the issues NA/EU servers have been having for a couple of days now?

[astral perch]

please create a new thread sir and ping me there i need more details on what issue you are talking about

[merry badger]

Take two:

1. Launched the game in solo mode again.
2. Placed another tent.
3. Closed the game.
4. Copied World to server
5. Copied World_latest to server backups
6. Connected to the game, correct world loaded, but it desynced and crashed (cannot build , use items etc)

[astral perch]

give me a sec

[astral perch]

can you try doing like this please?

[merry badger]

You mean remove the "default" form path ?

[astral perch]

the dedicated server folder is on teh left, the client folder is on the right

if you are launching this on linux, sorry i don't have linux folders structure at hand

[merry badger]

This is what i did, copied whole folder into server, the folder contains the zip

[astral perch]

this looks correct

can you show me what you have in Rocks_DB_v2_Backups please?

[merry badger]

Server side?

client side

[astral perch]

can you also show ServerDescription .json pls?

[merry badger]

client

server

[merry badger]

@astral perch i can see other people sending logs too, any progress?
Few people have paid for the server over 60$ and over the weekend it was completely unplayable 🙁

[astral perch]

we managed to load into your world with clean windows dedicated server + clean client

can you load your world on a local dedicated server?

I would suggest reaching out to your server provider one more time because it looks like it is working just fine

[merry badger]

can you provide invite code?

I will try loading my char int

[astral perch]

f1014dc9

[merry badger]

[astral perch]

[merry badger]

RN Yes

I will try fresh install

again

can we get Bisect channel in the "hosting server providers" ?

[astral perch]

I just didi this, from your save:

[astral perch]

hosting providers are not replying here usually

[merry badger]

[astral perch]

all redirecting to their websites

[merry badger]

[astral perch]

[merry badger]

[merry badger]

[astral perch]

[merry badger]

[merry badger]

@junior iris could you please take a look ?

[merry badger]

@astral perch I've done full 100% reinstall of the server, I can connect to the server on fresh new world.
the issue is somehow related to the world, i dont understand how you are albe to run world, but another hsoting is not able to ?

[merry badger]

WHat i did now:

1. Compltely relinstalled server, 100% frehs install, no old files kept.
2. Uploaded ONLY the backup, not uploading the world.

3. Server still generates new world.

Hi, @merry badger

We just moved this archive from
AppData_Local_R5_Saved.zip\Saved\SaveProfiles\76561198335673306\RocksDB_v2_Backups\Worlds\FB9811C511204C245588F3223FCBC59B\FB9811C511204C245588F3223FCBC59B_0.10.0_Latest.zip

to WindroseDedicatedServer\R5\Saved\SaveProfiles\Default\RocksDB_v2_Backups\Worlds\FB9811C511204C245588F3223FCBC59B\FB9811C511204C245588F3223FCBC59B_0.10.0_Latest.zip

Then we changed WorldIslandId in ServerDescription.json to match your world ID. These are all the steps required to make it work

Can you do the same using the Windows Dedicated Server app in Steam, just to make sure it will work for you too?

[merry badger]

Thtats what I am doing, uploading bakcup to world backups , exactly undewr that path.
Setting upo WorldsIsland ID to the correct world ID

@quasi cloud now i managed to conenct to the server with my wrold, lkets check the freeze / crash errors

Yes its crashing again

it is full desync from player to server, i cannot leave building mode, cannot place eelemnts

cannot press "ESC"

[quasi cloud]

There may be an issue with the hosting provider's infrastructure. There's a thread about this: https://discord.com/channels/1260209458924224542/1500810776150278258. Sounds like it relates to your issues, right?

[merry badger]

thats the reply

I cna play on the server on a new save file... Therefore must be some issues with loading saves.

[quasi cloud]

Okay, I'll check if this world runs on Nitrado within an hour

[merry badger]

Let's close this topic nad keep #1500810776150278258 as megathread i think

[astral perch]

just amke sure when you upload files to Nitrado, don't use Filezilla nr WInSCP FTP clients, they caused issues to some players before (however i think now when u need to transfer zip files it sohuld be fine.... but just o be double sure)

[merry badger]

Trasnfering ZIP is always best, I have met issues that the file folders containing more than 100 files have issues when being uploaded as a folder. Since then im only uploading zips

[quasi cloud]

Looks like the server runs just fine on Nitrado. Can you join via the invite link f998cf21 with password 1234 and confirm that it works fine for you too? Maybe play for half an hour or so?

[merry badger]

ye i will check

[merry badger]

doenst find a server

[quasi cloud]

Oops, wrong invite code

e1ff976d this one

[merry badger]

getting in

[pure walrus]

Is the world you wanted to use currently on your Bisect server? I just connected to it and I'm not currently having any issues. There is a small base at spawn with Black Axel and Doctor Galen.

[merry badger]

let me check also, the issue is when trying to build

after 5-10 minutes of gamaplay

i will join , one sec

[pure walrus]

Yeah, it looks like its frozen/timed out for me now after about 5 minutes. Please let me know if you connect to the Nitrado server and it doesn't have the same issue after 5-10.

[merry badger]

I am playing on nitrado rn, works good T_T

pretty good

[quasi cloud]

So it looks like the save file for the character and world is fine; the issue is somewhere on the infrastructure side.

[merry badger]

still on the server 15+ mins

building around

[astral perch]

are you guysd sure you don't have any mods installed on Bisect serer?

[merry badger]

1000%

🙂

[astral perch]

never hurts asking 😄

[merry badger]

I will leave it to Bisect then

It stopped working properly on Friday afternoon, maybe there was some change in Infrastructure @mint kayak 🙁

[merry badger]

super fresh install , no windrose+, no UE4SS

[terse shoal]

Thats also way longer than I have managed on Bisect, 5 mins seems to be the max

[merry badger]

yes

@quasi cloud ye 20 min plus, you can close it, thanks

[junior iris]

We'd love a channel.. Just saying 👀

[merry badger]

I just made #1500869210245566484 for this freezing issue

but lets hope some Mods add

[pure walrus]

Can you restart your server and try connecting?

[merry badger]

Please mark as solved as i cannot change tag i guess

[junior iris]

@astral perch can be closed! 🫡
