Palworld Getting a player’s File ID
Palworld uses 3 ways to identify players, their SteamID, an internal PlayerUID, and an ID used for their player data file. The SteamID can be found using websites like SteamID.io, and the internal PlayerUID can be found using the /ShowPlayers admin command, but the player data file name requires a bit of work.
If we have a player’s internal PlayerUID, 68842638 and we want the file that stores their data, then we’ll want to use a Decimal > Hexadecimal converter like this one. We’ll need to convert the 8 character internal PlayerUID into hex, and then look at the files. The hex will be at the start of the file name and then the rest will be 0’s, like so.
Decimal: 68842638 Hexadecimal: 041A748E
Filename: 041A748E000000000000000000000000.sav
The same process can be done in reverse, taking the first 8 characters from the file name and converting them to decimal, then going through the player list until you find the player with that internal PlayerUID.
