Whenever trying to open a save game downloaded from my dedicated server (The host is Nitrado) i get an error, Unkown Version 11. I've tried going around this issue by changing the version to 09 using a Hex editor but I then get an error with indexes being out of bound. Seems like the file structure has changed. Haven't had the chance to try with a local savegame yet.

Hi.

This is a recently discovered issue with some server hosts (particularly Nitrado) using the option -newsaveformat. Unfortunately it's quite different to what we know and is taking significant work to discover the format. You can track the progress in https://github.com/cadon/ARKStatsExtractor/issues/1311.

Wish the ARK devs documented how their files work. Thanks for the prompt reply (and linking the issue which I had missed)!
