How do you get the different maps on steam?

[lern2spell 1]

I was wondering how you get maps like Lingor,Taviana ETC on the steam version. Becuase I have really wanted to play these maps but their seems to be no way to get it.

Easiest way is to download DayZCommander and use that for maps/updates/serverbrowsing etc

What do you mean "not allowed"? It's free, takes up little space, downloads quickly, and is widely trusted. It makes playing and updating dayz a piece of cake. The only way I know to play other maps on steam is to download the map somewhere online, and edit your launch options on Arma II OA so that it will launch that map instead of vanilla dayz, but you'd need to go in an change that every time you want to change maps. Plus that's a bit more of an iffy download unless you know for absolute certain it's from the creator of that map.

Dayzcommander makes everything a cake, you basically don't have to do anything. It's basically magic, if such a thing existed.

:\ what ?

steam is not a great way to play DayZ, DayZcommander is 30Mb, does not interfere with steam or any other programs and makes running DayZ easy.

Oh and you can launch it through steam using dayZcommander, neat right ?
