can the steam version of dayz run other maps

Recommended Posts

So I know that the dayz version that you get of steam kinda sucks, but does anyone know if it can run servers using other maps,lingor,namlask,orgins,ect.

Thanks!

I'm not really following, you don't need DayZ if you are only playing other mods, you only need it if you are playing DayZ. You can't play any other mods unless you install them separately.

 

DayZ on steam basically just launches ArmA with -mod=@dayz in the shortcut, @DayZ being the folder where DayZ is installed.

What the hell do you mean the Steam version "Kinda sucks" ? That IS DAYZ...???

 

Anyway:

 

Yes. Go into steamapps/common/whatever/whatever/@dayZ and just replace everything in their with your "Special better than DayZ youwish" and launch it like normal.

I assume you can just right click on DayZ mod or Operation Arrowhead on steam > properties > set launch options and add "-mod=@DayZOverwatch" as an example with whichever mods you want, obviously you would still need to install/update those mod folders manually though so I'm not sure why you would want to.

I haven't had any problems using it at all... and I thought he meant "Current version" as in "Current version of DayZ" (In Chernarus)

Thats good to hear that you have had no problems,I am sure its not "that"bad.

I might try it out tomorrow to see if other maps work.
