Upgrade Durin's Folk Save on Return to Moria

Upgrading an existing world to Durin’s Folk is different from enabling the DLC on a new world. This process applies the expansion to a save that was created before Durin’s Folk was enabled.

Warning: Once a world is upgraded to Durin’s Folk, it cannot be reverted. Back up your server before proceeding.

All players joining an upgraded world must own the Durin’s Folk DLC.

To enable Durin’s Folk on a new world instead, see How do I enable Durin’s Folk DLC on my Return to Moria server?.

Upgrade an existing save for Durin’s Folk

Using Blacksmith’s Portal

1. Back up your server
2. Open the Blacksmith’s Portal
3. Stop your server
4. Go to Startup
5. Set Upgrade Optional DLC to DurinsFolk
6. Start your server

The server will apply the Durin’s Folk expansion to your existing world on load. Players without the DLC will be unable to join.

Self-Hosting/Other Providers

1. Back up your Moria/Saved folder
2. Stop your Return to Moria server
3. Open MoriaServerConfig.ini
4. Under [World.Create], set UpgradeOptionalDLC.Array="DurinsFolk"
5. Save the file and restart the server

What happens after upgrading

• The world permanently includes Durin’s Folk content
• Only players who own the DLC can join this world
• Characters can still visit non-DLC worlds on the same server if you have other saves without the upgrade applied
• You cannot roll back to a pre-DLC version of the same save
