Let' Play PixARK | How to Use Your Map Seed on a Private Server
32Below is a tutorial for how to take a map seed from your single player game and use it on a private server. If you decide to use the tutorial, be sure and leave a comment below to let Rav know how much you appreciate her hard work.
We also talk about today’s Thing of the Day, the TOTD. We learn all about the Soil Privilege Markers in PixArk.
Getting a good map
Go into Single Player and choose Creator Mode, load a character (or make a new one), then “Add new” map. This way you will be able to see the entire map when you get in game. It seems to be rather difficult to find a good map, but keep on trying. Word of advice; delete the maps that aren’t good enough.
The information about the map/seed is located under:
/ShooterGame/Saved/CubeSingles/ CubeWorld_Light/
The map/seed will be a folder with a long string of numbers and letters.
Deleting and uploading files to the server
Before you start doing any changes make sure to take a backup of the server. It is better to be safe, than sorry.
On your server the location for the map should be under:
/Saved/CubeServers/ CubeWorld_Light/
Folder for the map/seed should be named "worldname", but it could be different depending on hosting company.
Click Edit (it is usually a pen icon) on the World.ini and copy the content to a notepad file.
Then delete the following files on the server:
Terrain.arg
Terrain.db
World.ini
Then upload these files from your computer to the server. They should be located under:
\ShooterGame\Saved\CubeSingles\CubeWorld_Light\"the name of your seed string".
Now you need to check the World.ini file on the server. There are some settings that you need to change back to what they were in the World.ini file you deleted. These are the settings you need to check:
World.ini
[Main]
EchoPort=
ServerAddr=
EchoAddr=
WorldName=worldname
RootDir=../../../ShooterGame/Saved/CubeServers//
ServerPort=
SavePath=../../../ShooterGame/Saved/CubeServers/CubeWorld_Light/worldname/
ServerID=
[Dir]
Root=../../../ShooterGame/Saved/CubeServers//
Save=../../../ShooterGame/Saved/CubeServers/CubeWorld_Light/worldname/
After that, you go to the "Map" folder on the server and delete all the files there. They all start with "CubeWorld_Light".
When you have done that, you upload the "CubeWorld_Light.ark" file from your computer to the server. It is located under:
\ShooterGame\Saved\CubeSingles\CubeWorld_Light\"the name of your seed string"\Local\Map
Now you can restart the server. The map should have changed, but tribes and player levels should be the same as before.
