Changing your Conan Exiles server map is a straightforward process with Peel Panel. Follow these steps carefully to ensure a smooth transition.

Step 1: Log in to Peel Panel

1. Go to Peel Panel.

2. Log in using your BananaServers credentials.

Step 2: Stop the Server

1. Navigate to your Conan Exiles server in the panel.

2. Click the Stop button to prevent file corruption and ensure changes are properly applied.

Step 3: Access the File Manager

1. Once your server is stopped, go to the File Manager tab.

2. Navigate to the following path:

   ConanSandbox/Saved/Config/WindowsServer/

Step 4: Edit the Engine.ini File

1. Locate the Engine.ini file in the directory.

2. Click on it to open the file in the panel's editor (or download it, edit locally, and re-upload).

3. Inside the file, look for the following section:

[/Script/EngineSettings.GameMapsSettings]

• If this section doesn’t exist, add it manually.

4. Below this section, modify or add the ServerDefaultMap line based on your desired map:

• The Exiled Lands:

ServerDefaultMap=/Game/Maps/ConanSandbox/ConanSandbox

• Isle of Siptah (DLC required):

ServerDefaultMap=/Game/DLC_EXT/DLC_Siptah/Maps/DLC_Isle_of_Siptah

For example:

[/Script/EngineSettings.GameMapsSettings]
ServerDefaultMap=/Game/DLC_EXT/DLC_Siptah/Maps/DLC_Isle_of_Siptah

• Custom Modded Map: (Check the mod’s Steam Workshop page for the exact path)

ServerDefaultMap=/Game/Mods/Savage_Wilds/Savage_Wilds

Step 5: Save the Changes

• After editing, click Save. If you edited the file locally, re-upload it to the same directory.

Step 6 (Optional): Install Mods for Custom Maps

For custom maps like Savage Wilds, you must install the associated mod:

1. Navigate to the ConanSandbox/Mods/ directory in the File Manager.

2. Upload the mod's .pak file (downloaded from the Steam Workshop or other sources).

3. Edit or create a modlist.txt file in the same directory.

4. Add the .pak file name with an asterisk prefix, like this:

*Savage_Wilds.pak

Step 7: Start the Server

1. Return to the main server control page.

2. Click the Start button to launch the server with the new map.

Step 8: Verify the Change

1. Connect to your server in-game to confirm the new map is loaded.

2. If the map doesn't appear correctly, double-check the Engine.ini file for typos and ensure any required mods or DLCs are installed.

Additional Tips

• Backup First: Before making changes, create a backup of your server files (especially the Saved folder).

• DLC Requirement: For Isle of Siptah, all players must own the DLC to join.

• Custom Maps: Ensure modded maps are installed on both the server and your game client to avoid errors.
