Upload an Existing Save to Your Icarus Server
Transfer your local Icarus prospect save file to your dedicated server with this step-by-step upload and configuration guide.
This guide walks you through uploading a custom world file to your Icarus dedicated server.
If you get stuck at any time, XGamingServer offers free save transfers. Just join our Discord.
📝 Note: If you have not already, you need to connect to your server and create a new prospect to generate the necessary files on your server.
Finding Your Save Files
Icarus worlds are not stored in the game files. They are located in a separate directory.
Locate Your Prospect
Open the folder named after your SteamID64, then enter Prospects.
Copy Your Save File
Copy your prospect.json file. For example, if your Prospect is named MySave, your save file will be MySave.json in the Prospects folder.
Uploading Your World
These steps use MySave.json as an example save file name.
Stop Your Server
Log in to the XGamingServer Panel and stop your Icarus server.
Navigate to the Prospects Folder
Go to Files and navigate to /ICARUS/Saved/PlayerData/DedicatedServer/Prospects.
Upload Your Save
Upload your MySave.json save file to this directory.
Loading Your World
Stop Your Server
Log in to the XGamingServer Panel and stop your Icarus server.
Edit ServerSettings.ini
Go to Files and navigate to /ICARUS/Saved/Config/WindowsServer/ServerSettings.ini. Edit LoadProspect= to the name of your save (e.g., LoadProspect=MySave).
Start Your Server
Start your server to load the uploaded world.
