Palworld – How to Reset Statue of Power Effigy Levels

This guide is for people who want to change their Statue of Power effigy levels to improve their catch rates. It won’t solve the catch rate issue with the Effigy levels because that’s a bug in the game. Catch rates seem fine up to Level 3, based on what I’ve learned.

This guide is about fixing the catch bonus levels for the Lifmunk Effigy in the Statue of Power. It won’t solve the catch rate issue beyond level 3 أو 4. إليك ما ستحتاج إليه:

1. Notepad or Notepad++
2. Lantern_v1.5.7 (Lantern – A Save Editor) from Nexus Mods (credits to CerisWhite)
3. Knowledge of how to back up your files in a zip or similar format. I’m not responsible if you don’t back up your game saves.

ملحوظة: This guide won’t work if you currently have no effigies. Make sure you have at least one effigy in the game before proceeding.

Converting into a Usable Format

Preparing for file editing:

1. أولاً, check your Palworld effigy level in the game. في حالتي, it was “level 7.” We’ll be searching for “7” specifically. ملحوظة: Running the game and opening the world where you want to adjust your effigy level will make it easier to find later in this tutorial. Just be sure not to close the game abruptly (like with Alt+F4) because it won’t save your progress.
2. يفتح “My Computer” (This PC) and navigate to your save game folder. It’s typically located at “ج:\المستخدمون (pc_username)\AppData\Local\Pal\Saved.” If you don’t see the “AppData” مجلد, you’ll need to enable the option to view hidden files. You can do this by opening the Start Menu and typing in “File Options” (on Windows 11, it might appear as “File Explorer Options”). Once opened, go to the “View” فاتورة غير مدفوعة, where you’ll find “Hidden files and folders.” Enable this option.
3. التالي, انتقل إلى “SaveGames/(steamID number)” (this folder likely contains only numbers). داخل, find the folder corresponding to the world you recently opened to check your Effigy Level. It’s usually the first folder that was modified recently, which you can confirm by right-clicking inside the steamID folder, then going to View -> تفاصيل.
4. في هذا المجلد, you’ll find your save game files. We’ll be working with only two files today: ‘Level.sav’ and a file inside the Players folder named ‘00000000000000000000000000000001.sav’. To be safe, back up the entire folder to prevent accidental deletion. I’m not responsible if you accidentally delete your data.
5. الآن, open a new Explorer window alongside the first one. هنا, we’ll extract the files from the Lantern ZIP file we downloaded earlier from Nexus Mods (or wherever you got it). Navigate to your downloads folder in the second Explorer window and unzip the files into their own folder.
6. Inside this newly unzipped folder, you’ll find zipped Linux and Windows versions of Lantern. Extract the relevant one for your system within that folder. You should now have a folder (or a newly created one) containing the file ‘Lantern.exe’ along with Data and Utility folders.
7. Open the Utility folder and you’ll find three .cmd files: Convert, ExportPals, and ImportPals. We’ll only be using Convert and ExportPals.
8. الآن, go back to the first window you opened earlier and drag and drop the Level.sav file from your saved game folder directly onto the ExportPals.cmd file. This will convert your .sav file into a .json file. Please be patient as the uncompressed JSON file is much larger than the .sav file; it can range from 20MB to 1GB or even more for a single player.
9. Once the command prompt indicates that it’s done, close the prompt window. Repeat the same process for the ‘00000000000000000000000000000001.sav’ file in the Players folder. This will generate one .json file for each converted file and place them in their respective locations, renamed as ‘Level.sav.json’ و ‘00000000000000000000000000000001.sav.json’. This process won’t damage or destroy your save, but it’s a good idea to backup the .sav files just in case.
10. The files are now ready for editing.

Statue of Power Effigy Level

Editing the Statue of Power Lifmunk Catch Bonus Level:

BACKUP YOUR FILES FIRST

1. Open the ‘Level.sav.json’ file in Notepad or Notepad++. Since this is a large file, it may take some time to load.
2. Once the file is loaded, press CTRL+F or click on Search in the Menu, then click on Find.
3. Search for your character’s stat points by typing “GotStatusPointList” (without the quotes) in the Find what: box. Click Find Next, and it should take you to the first line with the information we need.
4. This section contains all your main character’s allocated stat points. Look for the line that contains “u7387”. You can also use the find feature for this. The first result will take you to where we need to go. You should see a line like: “قيمة”: “\u6355\u7372\u7387”.
5. هنا, you’ll edit your Lifmunk Catch level. Scroll down 5 lines until you find a line that says “قيمة”: #, where # is your current Statue of Power Catch bonus level. You can change this number to any value between 0 و 10. I haven’t tested beyond 10, so I’m not sure what would happen.
6. بمجرد الانتهاء, save the full file. الآن, you’ll convert it back to .sav format.
7. Drag the freshly saved JSON file over the Convert.cmd file in the Lantern folder. This will compress it back into a usable save file, replacing the current ‘Level.sav’ file in that folder. Remember to BACKUP YOUR FILES FIRST.
8. Test in Palworld to see if your Effigy level has changed.

Lifmunk Amount Adjustment

Editing Lifmunk Effigy Key items amount:

BACKUP YOUR FILES FIRST

1. Open the ‘00000000000000000000000000000001.sav.json’ file in Notepad or Notepad++.
2. Once the file is loaded, press CTRL+F or click on Search in the Menu, then click on Find.
3. Search for your character’s effigy amount by typing “RelicPossessNum” (without the quotes) in the Find what: box. Click Find Next, and it should take you to the first line with the information we need.
4. This section contains the Relic (or effigy) amount. Scroll down 2 lines until you find “قيمة”: #, where # is the number of effigies you currently own.
5. Change the number to your desired amount. You can refund your effigies, or go wild and have millions.
6. بمجرد الانتهاء, save the full file. الآن, you’ll convert it back to .sav format.
7. Drag the freshly saved JSON file over the Convert.cmd file in the Lantern folder. This will compress it back into a usable save file, replacing the current ‘00000000000000000000000000000001.sav’ file in that folder. Remember to BACKUP YOUR FILES FIRST.
8. Test in Palworld to see if your Effigy amount has changed.
