Move a save from a Conan Exiles Legacy server to a Conan Exiles Enhanced server. The first Enhanced startup converts your save one-way — the converted save will not load back on Legacy.

Before you migrate

  1. Make sure your Legacy source server is on Exiled Lands, not Isle of Siptah. Move characters off Siptah first if needed.
  2. Stop the Legacy source server.
  3. Stop the Enhanced target server.
  4. Back up the source's ConanSandbox\Saved\ folder. Keep it until you've verified the Enhanced server in-game.

Same-machine migration (in-panel)

If both servers are on the same machine and on the same Survival Servers account:

  1. Open your Conan Exiles Enhanced server in the control panel.
  2. Click Migration Tools on the Transferring from Legacy? alert.
  3. Pick your Legacy source server from the dropdown.
  4. Click Copy Save to Enhanced.
  5. Click Save and restart server on the Enhanced server.
  6. Join in-game and verify your save.

The dialog will tell you exactly what's blocking the copy if anything is — running source, Siptah map, active panel task, or the Enhanced target already has a converted save.

Cross-host migration (FTP upload)

Use this if your source server is on another host or another machine:

  1. Stop both servers.
  2. Download ConanSandbox\Saved\game.db from the source (FTP or file manager). Grab game.db-wal and game.db-shm too if they're present.
  3. On the Enhanced server, click Open Save Folder in the migration dialog (or open the file manager directly).
  4. Upload the file(s) into ConanSandbox\Saved\.
  5. Click Save and restart server on the Enhanced server.
  6. Join in-game and verify your save.

If the Enhanced target already has a save you want to keep, back up its ConanSandbox\Saved\ folder first. The in-panel tool does this automatically; manual uploaders need to do it themselves.

Mods

Legacy mods will not load on Enhanced until the author re-cooks them. Remove incompatible mods before first startup. See Installing Workshop Mods on Conan Exiles Enhanced.
