Server down for repairs...

Hello all!

    Just wanted to let you know that my server is offline right now (11am EDT on 4/14/2018), and might be for the day. There is a glitch in the daily backups and my host needs to delete and recreate the server. They have not given me an estimate as to how long this will take.

    I got everything backed up to my personal computer just before my server was taken offline. When it comes back up, and saved info reinstalled, there should hopefully be no losses of anything done...give or take the last 15 minutes or so.

    I'll post here, as well as in Discord, with any updates or when server is back online. Sorry for the inconvenience and thank you for your patience!

Starting From Scratch

Hello everyone!

Today has been, for lack of a better word, hectic. I brought the server down to perform an ARK update and something went haywire. The server somehow got wiped.

Falandir and I spent the last 7 hours trying many things to fix it. We did the following:

 - Verified Steam/ARK Update - Did not work
 - Rolled server back to most recent save - Did not work
 - Rolled server back to save before that - Did not work
 - Rolled server back to save before that - Did not work
 - Rolled server back to 4:15am Back-Up - Did not work
 - Deleted all mods and config files and reinstalled game on server
 - Reinstalled all mods and config files - Did not work
 - Rolled server back to save from last night -Did not work
 - Rolled server back to save from 2 days ago - Did not work

For whatever reason, the game is not reading any Saves or Back-Ups. Sadly, a wipe is the final result.  /cry

I'm sorry this happened and will help replenish items and resources. Sigh...the joys of starting back at level 1 on an empty map. If any of you lost dinosaurs you brought over from Aberration we'll help replace them as well.

Server Back Up

Just wanted to let you know that my server is up and running. Still no idea what happened to make it go offline. Thanks go out to Fal for keeping an eye on it with me and helping to get it online.

Server Down

Just wanted to let you all know that my server is down. I have no idea what's going on, but it looks like something went wrong during the 4:15am BackUp. I am at work and am having internet connection issues but will still try to get this resolved. I have no idea when I'll be able to get the server up and running. Please be patient.
