Legacy servers

Convert a legacy server

Bring a server from the original Odyssey to the new one. Upload its server.dat and we convert it: maps, items, monsters, scripts, guilds, and every account and character.

How it works

Free, and it usually takes under a minute.

  1. Upload

    Your server.dat, and its .ini files if you still have them.

  2. We convert it

    You get an email when it is done, with a report of what came across.

  3. Download

    Put server.db in your new server's data folder. It is kept for seven days.

Your players' accounts

A legacy server.dat holds its players' passwords.

  • Every account and character comes across. Players sign in with the password they had, and choose a new one the first time.
  • The converted database holds no passwords, only what the new server needs to check one.
  • Your upload is deleted the moment it has been converted. Nobody downloads the result but you.
  • If a conversion fails, we keep the upload until we have found out why, then delete it.

Upload

Converting needs an Odyssey account, so the result is yours alone.

The converted database is the world and its players. Graphics, sounds and music are not in a server.dat: add those to the new server yourself. Stuck? Ask on the forum.
