Upload a World to Your Minecraft Server

Finding Your Local World

Windows singleplayer saves:

%AppData%\.minecraft\saves\YourWorldName\

Paste this path into Explorer's address bar. Each world is a folder.

Uploading

1. Stop your server
2. In the XGamingServer Panel, click Files
3. Delete (or rename) the existing world/ folder
4. Upload your world folder and rename it to world (must match level-name in server.properties)
5. Start your server

The folder must contain level.dat at its root — this is how you know you have the right folder level.

Custom Maps (Adventure Maps, Parkour, etc.)

Same process — download the map, extract it, upload to the server as the world folder. Make sure:

• The folder is named world (or matches level-name)
• level.dat is at the root (not nested in a subfolder)

Nether & End

If your world has Nether and End:

• Upload DIM-1/ (inside the world folder) for the Nether
• Upload DIM1/ for the End
• Some servers use separate world_nether/ and world_the_end/ folders — check your server type

⚠️ Warning: Uploading a world from a newer Minecraft version to an older server will not work. The server version must be equal to or newer than the world's version.
