Steam cloud 0 bytes

[東雲きめら]

I was originally playing on Gefoce now, but I switched to a new PC and decided to use the Steam Cloud. However, the Steam Cloud is not working and I have 0 bytes storage, so I can't play with the saved data from the middle of the game.

Ark has not ever used cloud saving. Yes it is registered to steam cloud, but steam cloud does not equal cloud saving. Steam cloud can be used to do a number of things not always save related.

SP is not real... it's literally a self hosted server.
Those server files are local on your current device.
There is no such thing as a traditional "save" in Ark given its a server not a real SP game.
Those world files are also too big for steam cloud from what i've been told.

If you want to sync/backup those files, you need to set up and manage that yourself. Google drive, one drive, drop box, etc. etc.
