About palworld-host-save-fix
palworld-host-save-fix repairs Palworld player saves that require creating a new character after moving between server types, such as co-op to dedicated server, dedicated server to co-op, or between Windows and Linux dedicated servers. It applies the new server's player GUID to the old player save so the server recognizes the existing character, using either a GUI or the fix_host_save.py script with save path, new GUID, old GUID, and guild fix options.
The repository describes the tool as experimental with risk of data loss and advises making a backup. Use requires Python >=3.10, palworld-save-tools v0.17.1, and a clone of the repository, and the source lists known Guild, Pal, Viewing Cage, and Left Click bugs.
