ThatRickGuy Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 The host of dedicated server i am on is looking at wiping the server. getting rid of all structures and tamed dinos, with good reason. does wiping the server reset the characters too?

Tduder356 Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 That will wipe EVERYTHING on the server constantly, ive done several wiped to my xbox dedicated, if u want to save characters or dinos go to an obelisk and transfer ark data, but dinos need to be on the platform so water dinos dont work ATM, hope that helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThatRickGuy Posted March 3, 2016 Author Share Posted March 3, 2016 Thank you! Just playing middle man but one other question. is it possible to configure the server to only allow character downloads and not Dino downloads? once it has been reset he wants to prevent dinos being downloaded back into the server, but wants to open it up to allow people to get their characters back on. we're a bit worried people will download there dinos it at the same time after looking at what settings we have to play with.

Tduder356 Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Unfortunately you cannot, it only allows you to disable both, but you could kill everyones dinos, though, they might get a wee bit salty lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThatRickGuy Posted March 3, 2016 Author Share Posted March 3, 2016 level 190 dinos owned by people that want the island to themselves makes it a bit hard. haha thanks again though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But to solve that problem you could just do pve during the week and pvp on the weekends. so no one dies and no dinos are killed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LostBytes Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Just set a time frame, say 10 minutes. (Example: @ 3:00 pm reboot server and enable DLs . Allow everyone to DLs characters. @ 3:10 pm reboot and disable DLs) this will allow people to get their characters, but not provide enough time to DL dinos. Also make a announcement, that any DLed dino will be destroyed.Stand firm on that fact and that anyone who misses the window to DL their character is SOL. This is not a ideal solution, but it works.
