About

Conan Exile releases a large update every couple of months as part of their storyline development. We recently saw Age of Sorcery and are planing for Age of War.

When a large update is planned things can break. It is rare that the break requires complete server wipes, but it is possible, especially of the developers of Conan Exile change database structures.

What is more likely is that the update will break one of our custom mods and the mod will need to be removed. This is less likely with building and clothing mods, but if it does happen, and we have to remove the mod it DOES remove the items.

However, the MOST likely issue is that the server will need to be continually restarted for days after the update as the developers of the other custom mods work to release their updated versions. There is no option to play without updating - both the game and the mods will automatically update, and when a new mod update is released the server HAS to be restarted. Because the mod developers have not united to organize this, it can happen at any time of the day or night. Its frustrating and can go on for days. We have subscribed to most of our custom mods, so their updates SHOULD be posted to the #mod-server-updates in Discord.

Pull the data to your pc as a backup
  1. Just in case, we recommend you find the character files on your hard drive and make a copy to some place you won't loose, like your desktop.
  2. My files save here:

  1. There is no export/save options for this, you will have to do it with copy and paste.
