Do you offer world migrations from my old host?

Yes. You can move your world, plugins and other data from your old host yourself, or we can do it for you.

Moving it yourself

1. Download your world and any plugin or mod data from your old host.
2. Sign in to the control panel at panel.chicagoservers.co and open your server.
3. Stop the server, and make a backup on the Backups tab if it already has a world you might want back.
4. Upload the files on the Files tab (drag files or whole folders onto the page), or with an SFTP program for big uploads. A .zip or .tar.gz file can be uploaded and unpacked with Extract here.
5. Put the files where your game expects them, then start the server.

Your game's article on uploading a world says where the files go, for example Minecraft, Valheim, 7 Days to Die and Palworld. See also How to use the Files tab and How to connect to your server's SFTP.

Having us do it

Put the world and any plugins or data you want moved into a .zip or .rar file. Then contact us on live chat, or open a support ticket and attach the file, and we'll move it over for you.
