With the Shifting Sands DLC you can set up a server cluster that allows players to travel between the base map (Cloud Mist Forest) and the Shifting Sands map.

Requirements

  • Two Soulmask servers with EmeraldHost
  • The Shifting Sands DLC for all players

Configure main server (Cloud Mist Forest)

  1. Open dashboard
    Open the dashboard of your first server (base map).

  2. Open settings
    Navigate to the Settings.

  3. Set Server ID
    Enter the following in the [CROSS-MAP] SERVER ID field:

    -serverid=1
    
  4. Set Broadcast Address
    Enter the following in the [CROSS-MAP] BROADCAST ADDRESS field:

    -mainserverport=20000
    
  5. Enable cross-server
    Connect via SFTP and edit the file:

    /WS/Saved/GameplaySettings/GameXishu.json
    

    Set the value KaiQiKuaFu to 1.

  6. Start the server
    Save the settings and start the main server.

Configure client server (Shifting Sands)

  1. Open dashboard
    Open the dashboard of your second server (Shifting Sands).
