Thank you for the responses. I got it working! I turned off the -usestore again, and it logged in to my old character!
A few funny notes: 1) I do not have a .arktributetribe file associated with my steamid. Even though I am the Admin now, I did not create the tribe. I couldn't find the right tribe number to move to my localprofiles folder. 2) I logged in for the first time, and all the original resources inside by base returned. That caused a lot of damage to the structures, so I will be spending a fair bit of repair time. 3) My character and all my tames woke up with an additional 14 unused player points to assign.
Finally, game runs great for about 10 minutes, then starts lagging down. My server had 3987 profiles associated with it, so I am going to start wiping other tribes to get a smaller GPU memory load.
Thanks again for everyone's help.
